The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 92
Chapter 92 Ghost Shadow (2)
The scene in front of your eyes.
I couldn’t even believe it when I saw it.
More than the fact that Hector’s knight was killed in one blow, the embarrassment of the man running towards the enemy alone preceded it.
“Enemies!”
“Kill!”
Hector’s soldiers charged.
At first glance, dozens of people.
But there was only one man dealing with them.
Appearing alone on the battlefield, Roman Dmitri attacked the enemies head-on, as if the difference in numbers did not matter.
Awesome!
Papa papak!
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah”
It was a one-sided slaughter.
The soldiers who rushed with great force fell out, screaming, and the soldiers who stopped in surprise were cut off one by one without even having time to respond.
There was no sign of using the aura.
Although purely physical, Roman Dmitri slaughtered his enemies with ease.
one per blow.
Death followed every flash of the sword.
They stretched out their weapons aiming for Roman’s life from all sides, but when they closed and opened their eyes, they were killing another soldier.
It was a monster.
But what was more shocking than the overwhelming force was that Roman Dmitri was really alone.
“This crazy.”
“The enemy is alone! Calmly pincer attack!”
“Attack from all sides!”
one to many.
It was an unusual situation.
I don’t understand why he appeared alone, but it’s a situation where he unilaterally slaughter.
Hector’s soldiers were desperate.
Common sense believed that if a large number of people attacked at the same time, they could be defeated, but as the fight progressed, the number of corpses scattered on the floor increased.
It was a fight with no opponent in the first place.
Instead of injuring Roman, the soldiers were blown off their necks as they approached.
from start to finish.
Actually, it wasn’t a long time.
Shortly after Brandt recognized the existence of Roman, the hell of the present world unfolded.
fluff.
finished.
last soldier.
Seeing Hector’s soldier collapse, Brandt looked up at Roman with a pale face.
“… What is your identity?”
According to Brandt’s common sense.
A monster like this did not exist in the Kingdom of Cairo.
* * *
Tongseongmyeong was short.
On the name Roman Dmitry.
Brandt’s heart skipped a beat.
‘… Was it really true that they were doing guerrilla operations?’
Contact with Count Donald.
Abandoning the first line of defense was interpreted to mean abandoning the southern front.
It was a common sense decision.
Now that the Warp Gate has fallen into the hands of the enemy, there is no way to hold out on the southern front against the forces of Hector Kingdom.
Geographical advantage of mountains? That too is just a joke.
As Hector Kingdom, it would obviously have a hard time dealing with the remnants hiding in the mountains, but there was no place in the southern mountains that could be used as a fortress.
blast furnace.
Guerrilla operations were not a good strategy.
While using the advantage of the mountain in the middle of the day, the back road was blocked and the enemy could be annihilated.
‘But Roman Dmitri stayed. That he had not given up on the southern front, even though he had had plenty of time to flee. If you think about it, it was unusual from the time I contacted Count Donald. He noticed that the warp gate in the rear camp was occupied and told us to flee.’
Foresight.
Roman’s judgment was correct.
Of course, guerrilla operations were considered reckless.
but.
Brandt could only look at Roman with admiration.
He knew that Roman Dmitri could still be alive because he stayed behind even though he knew it would be dangerous.
Brandt said.
“Dmitry Roman was right. Even with the right advice, Count Donald made a judgment that left him dead, and the first line of defense was in the hands of Hector Kingdom. The war is already over. The kingdom of Hector has moved to attack the second line of defense and they won’t last long either.”
I bowed my head.
I don’t know why Roman is walking alone.
sure thing.
It is said that the trend has tilted to the point where guerrilla operations are meaningless.
Brandt raised his voice toward Roman because he knew what kind of person Roman Dmitri was.
“Do you mean give up?”
“you’re right. There are things in the world that are physically impossible. I just witnessed how strong a swordsman Roman Dmitri is, but the kingdom of Hector invaded the southern front with numerous troops. There is no way to afford them all. Why don’t you retreat over the mountain like this? No one will ever curse Roman Dmitri. I witnessed how hard Roman Dmitri was and I will prove it to others. So please use your wise judgment.”
perhaps.
Brandt thought that Roman might have stayed for revenge.
In common sense, there is no reason to move alone.
Therefore, the hypothesis of losing all of his subordinates and taking revenge seemed quite plausible to Brandt’s common sense.
‘It’s a wise decision.’
Brandt’s advice.
That’s not wrong.
In fact, even if he retreated like this, there was no way Roman would be harmed.
but.
‘I don’t like it.’
It is not out of patriotism.
Roman Dmitry is from Cairo, and the Southern Front, where he is doing his defense duty, has fallen into Hector’s kingdom.
It was a matter of pride.
The single fact that a man named Roman Dmitry was present at the scene and did nothing.
Roman did not want such words to remain in reality.
The reasons for risking their lives were the same.
The benefits to be gained are small.
There is a lot to lose.
However, in the process of being born in the world of the jungle and rising to the peak, Baek Joong-hyeok knew only one fact.
‘Even once. I can’t set a precedent that makes me look down on me.’
That’s it.
So left.
So I didn’t run away.
In Brandt’s eyes looking up at him.
Roman said.
“No, the war is not over yet.”
* * *
From the outbreak of war until now.
Roman reviewed the situation.
‘The kingdom of Hector is in a very bad situation due to an unprecedented famine. There is no way to properly secure military provisions in a situation where food to feed the common people is running low. Still, the fact that he went to war can be interpreted as the desperate circumstances of Hector’s Kingdom.’
It’s a simple matter.
Hector’s heart.
They showed their intention to solve their problems through this war.
‘If that’s the case, I can understand all of Hector’s actions. The southern front is a barren land compared to other places, so there is no reason for foreign countries to invade unreasonably. However, Hector Kingdom is trying to completely put the southern front in their hands. Rather than simply crossing the border and attacking, they deceived their eyes and occupied the warp gate with the strategy of Seongdonggyukseo (聲東擊西). perfect isolation. They can occupy the high ground they have maintained no matter what deal they make from now on.’
over the wire.
I read the opponent’s intentions.
If Hector wants to end the war quickly, in fact, their weakness has already been revealed.
Roman said.
“This war is a very special case. The reason why the Hector kingdom tried to occupy the southern front at once was to reduce Hector’s sacrifice, and it was because they couldn’t afford to continue the war for a long time. War has a purpose. Hector’s purpose is to resolve the country’s difficulties through war, so the southern front must be completely occupied so that smooth negotiations can proceed with the Cairo royal family.”
“… what is that?”
Brandt opened his eyes.
Roman’s words.
I didn’t understand.
Trying to go to war to solve the country’s difficulties.
How can you accept this?
“It is a simple matter. The kingdom of Hector attacked the southern front even though the circumstances were not good. Do you think Hector, whose people are still starving, will be able to hold on to the southern front? you’re welcome. It is clear that they are now gambling with the fate of the country.”
on the edge of a precipice.
Hector drew his sword to live.
It was a last resort to try to solve the problem before dying of starvation, as he would wither away if he did nothing.
blast furnace.
Roman made a decision.
“We don’t have to deal with all Hector Kingdom’s forces on the southern front. If the number of enemies is ten thousand, a hundred of them. Even a mere 1% of achievements will greatly change the aspect of the war. Hector Kingdom will suffer from us remaining inside, and the Cairo royal family will not readily accept Hector Kingdom’s request, judging that there is still hope. That’s enough. We can thwart the plans of Hector Kingdom just by creating a variable in the war.”
at that point.
Brandt couldn’t hide his admiration.
His thoughts were not wrong.
Roman was not an ordinary person and was looking at the battlefield from a different perspective, as if he had shown foresight.
the problem is.
Roman’s plan was easier said than done.
“… Is that really possible?”
“possible.”
I couldn’t do a half question.
before you have any doubts.
“We have already achieved our goal.”
Roman Dmitry.
Brandt was shocked.
* * *
Southern Front Second Line of Defense.
Hector’s Kingdom had already launched an attack.
“launch!”
Tuung.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Flare hit the castle wall.
Some of the city walls collapsed after several attacks, and Cairo’s soldiers screamed in the roaring fire.
But Edwin Hector did not rush to order an attack.
After contacting the Cairo royal family, time was on Hector’s side.
From now on, minimizing damage was also an important issue.
‘The plan is perfect.’
preparation over the course of a year.
I made the situation that I trained countless times a reality.
I occupied the warp gate, which was the most important point while crossing the border and dispersing the eyes of the enemies.
With that, the war ended.
When discussing plans on the table.
From the moment the warp gate was occupied, there was no possibility of failure.
In fact, it was safe to say that it had crossed the ridge line.
From now on, it would be the end if you stably deal with the remaining remnants and receive appropriate compensation from Cairo.
however.
Despite this advantage, I was strangely not relieved.
‘The death of Baron McCleary was not counted in my plans. The 5th line of defense is the weakest on the southern front. Against such guys, Baron McCleary died. Roman Dmitry. Does it mean that he will become a variable enough to overcome his inferiority?’
Edwin Hector always doubted himself.
Even in a situation where things went smoothly, he blocked variables by looking back to see if there were any flaws in his judgment.
no matter how you think
The size of the variable was small.
I’ve heard of Roman Dmitri’s reputation, but a 3-star swordsman isn’t that great to overturn the trend.
‘Contrary to the original plan, the attack on the 5th line of defense failed. What are the variables we need to watch out for? To be sure, there are no variables that will put us in crisis. Even if Roman Dmitri were to lead an army against us, that amount of troops would not be able to handle Hector’s forces. What if Roman Dmitri’s military force is stronger than expected, as evidenced by the defeated soldiers? It will be difficult, but it is not directly linked to a fatal variable. The kingdom of Hector is not weak enough to be swayed by an individual.’
Before attacking the second line of defense.
Edwin Hector gave the order.
An order to deal with the remnants of Cairo.
It was a decision to block the variable in advance, fearing that they would be absorbed by Roman.
I suppressed my doubts with truth.
Sensitive nerves kept looking back at the plan, but in my head I came to a clear conclusion that there was no problem.
It was then.
A soldier came and told the news.
“Prince Edwin. Contact with the 1st Company, which left to deal with the remnants, has been lost.”
one news.
Ominousness prevailed.
just as expected.
“We have also lost contact with the 2nd company.”
“Company 3 is not receiving calls!”
For contact to arrive thoroughly.
Edwin Hector’s expression went cold.
variable.
The ominous finally became a reality.
