The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 9

Chapter 9 Change (2)

At first, I didn’t know what was going on.

Catching the soldier coming out of the office, Flora finally learned what had happened in Lawrence.

‘oh my god.’

Blood Fang.

A force called a heinous criminal group near Lawrence.

At one time, noble families attempted to wipe them out, but were eventually abandoned by their ratish, stealthy, and always vindictive actions.

So, for Flora, Blood Fang remained an unsolvable problem.

There would be no problem as long as I didn’t touch them, so I tried not to get involved with them as much as possible.

The day I said break up.

Roman said he would deal with them.

Flora stopped Roman without realizing it because she took on the responsibility of breaking up her marriage.

at that time.

“We are now South-South. So I will take care of my business.”

Roman drew a line.

As long as the link of arranged marriage is gone, they made it clear that they should not get involved in each other’s lives.

It was absurd.

I was angry and the other person did not understand.

Is it the last remaining pride?

Is it because he is ashamed of the fact that he broke up his marriage, so he has to come out so harshly that he is relieved?

I had a lot of thoughts.

Of course, I didn’t think that Roman would put into practice what he said.

however.

‘I really wiped out Blood Fang.’

What I thought was impossible became a reality.

In just a few days, Roman managed to do something that others would not have dared to do.

Common sense has collapsed.

Dmitry’s jerk?

That was a false rumor.

Even if Knight Commander Jonathan had helped him, the person he had seen and experienced, Roman, was not an insignificant human enough to be called an idiot.

He knew how to take responsibility for what he did and had the ability to act to keep his words.

Also, the rumor that he was half penniless, unable to wield a sword, was highly likely to be false as long as he personally killed Ben Miles, the leader of Blood Fang.

why?

Would Roman have kept his mouth shut about the world’s evaluation?

Had she known his true form even a little earlier, Flora would have made an effort to get to know Roman.

Regrets are already too late.

The water spilled and Flora was called to her father.

A father who praises Roman.

I don’t know what happened in the office, but I poured cold water on my father’s face, who was deeply in love with Roman.

“… We broke up our marriage.”

Flora’s remarks.

For Viscount Lawrence, it was like a bolt from the blue sky.

Flora.

Viscount Lawrence’s golden jade leaves.

I’m afraid I’ll fly away when the wind blows. I’ve raised my daughter with great care all my life, but I couldn’t tolerate it this time.

“You already notified the breakup?!”

Viscount Lawrence jumps out of his seat and gets up.

Flora’s heart skipped a beat at her father’s wrath, but she tried hard to express her thoughts with a calm face.

“yes. The last time I visited Dmitry’s estate, I expressed my intention. I also wanted to do something for the family according to my father’s will, but no matter how much I thought about it, marrying someone I couldn’t respect… … .”

“Flora. I thought you were a really smart kid. But not this.”

I cut off my words.

Unlike usual, he didn’t want to listen to his daughter’s words to the end.

“This father told me before. How serious is Yeongji’s situation. Now, the Barco family has borrowed a large amount of money from the Golden Bank to prepare for war against us. Did you make that choice knowing what that meant? There is no more compromise with the Barko family. They will bring us to our knees for this issue, and they will take everything for a just cause. It’s not just about gold and silver. Our land, our honor, and even you, called Lawrence’s flower. It means taking it all away.”

“Lawrence is not weak. Even Barco is not without a chance, isn’t it?”

“yes. If only the Barco family had stepped forward, I would have thought so. The problem is that the ‘central government’ approved the document, whose authenticity has not been confirmed, and the Golden Bank lent money to the Barco family without any special collateral. This isn’t just a fight between the two families. The forces that lent their strength to the Barco family will make a fight in which we have no choice but to lose, even for their own gain.”

“… .”

Flora’s eyes twitched.

she was smart

He was called gifted from a young age and boasted a brilliant mind enough to complete the academy course early.

But that was just corner knowledge.

at the academy.

and in the library.

Not the cold reality, but what you learned from what is written in books.

She thought Lawrence had nothing to lose, but the reality she faced was far from ideal.

Viscount Lawrence said.

“The arranged marriage with the Dmitri family was an inevitable choice. Among the families located in the northeast, they were the only ones who could contribute to solving the Barco family’s evil spell, so this father asked for permission from you. He asked if he could sacrifice himself for the family’s crisis. Of course, even if it was a difficult situation to refuse from your point of view, if you had refused then, you wouldn’t have been as angry as you are now. It’s up to you to pick a marriage partner you like among other prestigious families, so you’ve probably taken a step back. But not now. Previously, if you were the flower of Lawrence that everyone adored, now you are left with scars due to the choice of breaking up your marriage. Other families will try to keep an eye on the situation. It would be a very dangerous choice to proceed with the marriage in the current situation simply for the sake of marrying you.”

world of power.

The choice comes with a big price.

Lawrence, who gained the background of Dmitri through an arranged marriage, lost more due to the breakup.

Just now.

Viscount Lawrence met Roman.

He was a good guy.

A man with sharp eyes and an attitude that doesn’t shy away from facing himself.

And seeing how he handled Blood Fang for the people of the territory, he seemed to be especially fond of his people.

So it felt good.

Even if it’s an arranged marriage.

It’s because the other person isn’t an idiot like rumors say.

For Lawrence, with no other options, he thought it was genuinely fortunate that the option was not the worst.

But the water was spilled.

Thanks to this, everything he had prepared to deal with the Barco family became useless.

“In the past, the Barco family had asked us for an arranged marriage. It must have been that our fertile land was coveted. Then I flatly refused. No matter what advantage they gave us, the reason for refusal was the fact that the eldest son of the Barco family had a strong tendency towards women. And if you lose this war, you will not be Dmitri, but you will be Barko’s woman. that’s the reality At least before the war, if you were in a position to choose your opponent, things are different when you fall to the ground.”

Reasons for arranged marriage.

The reason why I had no choice but to make such a decision despite my torn heart.

Because the opponent is Barco.

Viscount Lawrence accepted the reality, knowing what it meant to lose to those who had been targeting Lawrence for a long time.

Flora’s heart sank.

her point of view.

There were no such stories in that world.

What was Barko’s intentions and what was he trying to achieve by marrying Dmitry?

she was naive

Because she had a pure heart in a cruel world, she chose to break off her marriage and did not expect the result.

cold reality.

Viscount Lawrence drew in a breath.

There was still time to pick up the water and put it in.

“For now, take some time to think about what mistakes you made. I will make another appointment with Dmitri and cancel the engagement. my daughter we are nobility I am not in a position to worry about what to eat and live on a daily basis like commoners, but as much as I have many things, I am in a position where the responsibility follows. So please keep praying that this problem gets resolved. If Dmitri bitterly rejects us, then our chances in the war against House Barko will be slim.”

Fortunately, the fact of the breakup was not known to the public.

Now is the only time to correct mistakes.

Viscount Lawrence left the office leaving the shocked Flora behind.

There are many things to do from now on.

that time.

Roman left Lawrence with the Knights of Dmitry.

way to move.

Knight Commander Jonathan glanced at Roman.

‘Certainly, I wonder if this is the Master Roman I know.’

Roman.

The Roman he knew was not born with a heart enough to look straight at Viscount Lawrence.

Besides, even the work of dealing with Blood Fang.

It was full of doubts.

Normally, I didn’t really talk to Roman, but now I couldn’t stand the itching of my mouth.

“Boss, did you really need to provoke Viscount Lawrence like that? It’s fortunate that it wasn’t a big problem, but if Viscount Lawrence was angry and angry, even the boy wouldn’t have been able to avoid punishment.”

at the place of being reprimanded.

Rather, Roman criticized the opponent.

At that time, Jonathan was so surprised that he approached Roman on the way to stop him.

“Did you have to do that?”

Roman laughed.

necessary?

There was no

It was best to solve the problem on the spot, but he deliberately changed his attitude in the atmosphere of blaming himself.

“Lawrence is not free from responsibility in this case. Their complacency left Blood Fang unattended, and Dmitri’s people were harmed by it. So, I was just pointing out the facts. The fact that you don’t have the right to reprimand me on the spot. And even if the circumstances were bad, Viscount Lawrence wouldn’t have punished me. Judging by the atmosphere, he didn’t seem to know about the breakup yet, and he wouldn’t make a foolish decision to punish the soon-to-be-married son.”

“… !”

Roman’s actions.

It wasn’t a careless word or action.

Roman accurately judged the situation and spoke out as much as he could handle.

“In the first place, it is a family that does not communicate properly even in important matters such as breaking up marriage. Do you still feel the need to forgive him for his wrongdoing? I solved the problem they couldn’t solve, and I received it when I received congratulations, there was no reason to be blamed.”

A confident attitude and confident voice.

That moment.

Jonathan was sure.

‘The young master has changed.’

Roman Dmitry.

He wasn’t the jerk he used to be.

* * *

Roman arrived home.

Immediately after soaking in the bathtub, he washed away the blood that was stained with warm water.

‘Even in a new life, my fundamentals do not change.’

killed a person

dozens at least.

Bloodfang was slain like that, but he felt no guilt for it.

‘It was necessary.’

Roman, not Baek Joong-hyuk.

He lived in a world of weak meat.

If he showed the weakness of hesitating when he had to kill someone, Baek Joong-hyeok’s life would have ended when he was young.

So, if you made a decision, you must put it into action.

Those who got in their way were cut down without the slightest hesitation and, if necessary, tortured in many cases.

That was the life of Baek Joong-hyeok.

Being Roman didn’t change anything.

If there is an existence that reveals murderous intentions to you.

It is the way Baek Joong-hyeok has lived so far to deal with it somehow regardless of means and methods.

If the same thing happens in the future.

Roman will always make the same judgment.

Whether the opponent is Blood Fang.

Or someone more than that.

Roman lived the life of a predator who lived by eating someone.

“The young lord is calling.”

It was when I finished taking a shower.

At Hans’ words, Roman changed into clean clothes and moved on.

And the home office arrived.

However, Baron Romero, whom he thought would condemn his reckless move, was looking at him with bright eyes.

A look that can’t hide the huge anticipation.

said Baron Romero.

“So you took care of Blood Fang yourself?”

Jonathan standing next to him.

I should have told him about the situation.

The meaning of the question was clear.

Roman’s father.

The father of a son before he became the lord of Dmitri, he couldn’t hide his anticipation that his eldest son had changed.
