The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life

Chapter 415 Winner takes all (1)

Count Snowdin’s eyes trembled.

The more I thought about the words of the signal soldier, the more I couldn’t hide my face that became red.

“… Did you say protest now? How dare a kingdom rebel against the empire!”

Quaang!

hit the table

Dmitry’s remarks.

Crossed the line.

Valhalla is not Dmitri’s subject.

It was not common sense to discuss mutiny when there was no obligation to follow their orders.

I could only think of this as ignoring Valhalla.

If you just ignore it after hearing these words, people will no longer consider Valhalla an empire.

if.

Had it not been for one of the high-ranking officials, Count Snowdin would have told him to contact Dmitri right away.

“Count. Stay calm.”

“composure? How the hell am I supposed to stay calm after hearing the voice of protest? Dmitri is ignoring us. Since you lost the war, it must mean accepting the reality and entering with your head down. That is absolutely impossible. As soon as we look easy enough, Valhalla will fall to the forces of Baron Eyren.”

“you’re right. This will be an opportunity for Baron Eyren with Dmitri on his back. But this is also Roman Dmitry’s trap. He may be deliberately provoking us to gain an excuse to attack Valhalla.”

“… A reason to attack?”

“yes.”

Moment.

The blood was cold.

At the possibility that it might be a trap, Earl Snowdin looked at it as if asking for more.

the leadership said.

“Now that the Kronos Empire has collapsed. For Roman Dmitri, the Valhalla Empire is a thorn in the eye. Since we accepted the last ceasefire negotiations, there is no reason to attack, but if the situation arises, we will try to destroy Valhalla at any time. It is clear that protest is a word that crosses the line. However, if this causes a dispute, Roman Dmitry will try to resolve it through force. And, as you know, the power of Valhalla can never handle Dmitri.”

“Then what do you mean? Are you saying we should put up with it even though they openly ignore us?”

“Look into the distant future. No matter how humiliating it is now, a moment of anger will never solve the problem.”

It was a dilemma.

if you are angry

At the cost of displaying Valhalla’s pride, I didn’t know how things would get worse.

if you accept that

From that day on, the status of the empire came to an end.

Count Snowdin showed a devastated expression.

Roman Dmitry was a truly terrifying figure.

It wasn’t enough to have persuaded Baron Eirn and put Valhalla into a corner.

In fact, the future was already foreseen from the moment Cronus collapsed.

Count Snowdin, who had been thinking for a long time, spoke with a look that had aged considerably in a short time.

“Forget answering for now. When your thoughts are organized and your emotions subside, then Dmitri will give you the answer you want.”

“All right.”

The communicator withdrew.

I wanted the meeting to end there.

But after a few minutes

The telecommunicationsman reappeared in the meeting room and spat out unexpected words with a face in despair.

“Loro Roman Dmitri requested a warp. He will come right here to the capital of Valhalla!”

* * *

Warp request.

I couldn’t help but accept it.

Since Valhalla and Dmitri had officially ended the war, if Roman Dmitri’s warp was refused, there was a high possibility that rumors would come out.

I was annoyed and felt upset.

However, when Roman Dmitri entered the meeting room, Count Snowdin showed a bright smile as if he was genuinely pleased.

“welcome.”

There was no answer coming back.

Roman Dmitri nodded slightly and sat down as if it were a familiar space.

Count Snowdin’s expression twitched.

this also.

It was obvious inferiority.

In my heart, I wanted to express my seething anger, but Roman Dmitri had the right to take control of the situation.

He was such a great person.

Even though he was in the middle of enemy lines, his confident attitude showed his confidence that no matter how Valhalla came out, he could not harm him.

In fact, it was also true.

Knowing that fact, Count Snowdin struggled to suppress his anger and went back to his seat.

and asked

“Why did you suddenly find Valhalla?”

“You know why, don’t you?”

“What is that… .”

“Just now. Through magical communication, Dmitry’s intentions were clearly stated. We will have a meeting to convene the representatives of each country, and this is an order, not a request. Count Snowdin. I don’t think Valhalla has rebelled yet. But why did you delay answering? I should have told you to reply about this right away by magic communication.”

It was straightforward.

Count Snowdin could not hide his bewilderment at such an open and hostile question.

My head was complicated.

I wanted to knock the table over, but I instinctively knew I couldn’t do that.

“We needed some time to think. It doesn’t mean that I won’t attend the events hosted by Dmitry. However, Valhalla is an empire. It’s unprecedented for a kingdom to forcibly declare a summons against an empire, so I just couldn’t answer right away.”

sneakily.

passed on the responsibility

He pointed out how rude the other party was by stumbling over the relationship between the Empire and the Kingdom.

however.

“So you’re going to protest?”

It was an embarrassing answer.

There was no room for any explanation or compromise.

Count Snowdin couldn’t just ignore it this time as he immediately mentioned the mutiny.

“It’s a protest. Why are people so extreme? We are talking about the laws of this world. To say it’s a mutiny, isn’t Valhalla a country of subjects who serve Dmitri? I have no reason to explain further. I am not unaware of the deep emotional rift between Dmitri and Valhalla, but now that the war is over, I think we need to be at least polite towards each other.”

Sigh.

Roman Dmitri leaned back in his chair.

People gathered in the conference room.

As their uneasy eyes focused, they spat out words with calm faces.

“I will ask you one last time.”

Attitude changed.

Roman Dmitry knew it too.

the absurdity of this situation.

So it was a meaningful action.

“Is Valhalla going to protest against Dmitri right now?”

* * *

The meeting room froze.

Count Snowdin tried to dodge the situation by mentioning the relationship between the Empire and the Kingdom in response to Roman Dmitri’s question.

however.

The problem itself has been trampled upon.

He boldly crossed the line, revealing that he had no intention of treating Valhalla.

I was speechless.

Normally, being angry is the right response, but he didn’t expect it to be this openly hostile, so Count Snowdin’s eyes wavered.

Opponent completely ignored the Empire.

However, the Valhalla Empire did not have the confidence to handle Dmitri’s anger to receive an apology for him.

It was then.

Through the silence, Roman Dmitry spoke.

“In the meantime, there was a method that the two empires of Valhalla and Cronus liked to use. Regardless of who is right, you have solved all problems with the logic of force. Count Snowdin. What do you think would happen to the world if I treated your actions as protests and killed them all on the spot?”

“… .”

“Nothing will happen. Just as the position of the empire was not shaken even though you openly persecuted people, you have no power to hold Me accountable. It’s a really simple problem. If you wanted to deal with Valhalla and Dmitri’s problems with common sense, you should have done something before the Kronos Empire collapsed. Even if Baron Eirin pressured you, you should have fought to the end and maintained the position of the Empire.”

I was dying.

Looking around at the speechless people, Roman Dmitry did not hide his hostility.

“The world has changed. Don’t you think it’s greed to want the new world to accept you without prejudice when you haven’t been fair? I will not force your choice. But don’t expect Dmitri to treat you with common sense in everything from now on. I will ask you one last time.”

laughed

Facing fearful gazes with cool eyes, he pushed the leaders of Valhalla to the brink.

“So you’re going to protest against me?”

* * *

A few days later.

The meeting was held by Dmitry.

The place was the capital of Cronus, who had lost its owner, and when the scheduled time came, representatives of each country gathered one after another.

“Long time no see.”

“You all look better.”

Umberto Redford King of the Frankish Three Kingdoms.

Edwin Hector and Daniel Cairo.

They seemed friendly to each other.

It destroyed the Kronos Empire, which had been feared so far, and it was time to enjoy the results from now on.

They couldn’t help but be happy.

Unlike those who sat down and exchanged simple regards, Count Snowdin, the representative of the Valhalla Empire, sat alone in a corner like a loner.

‘… Damn it.’

It was disastrous.

Valhalla Empire.

In the past, I always took on the role of the main character wherever I was.

People did not hesitate to flatter the person who represented Valhalla, and Count Snowdin was proud of the fact that he represented the Valhalla Empire.

But now it was different.

No one paid any attention to him, and the glances they met made him feel somehow disregarded.

gritted it

In fact, he didn’t really want to respond to Dmitri’s call, but he looked into the distant future and let go of his pride.

‘Valhalla will not collapse like this. Right now, I don’t have the power to defeat Roman Dmitri, but if I look to the distant future and prepare step by step, I will be able to defeat Dmitri at some point. If it’s impossible while I’m alive, in the next generation, and if it’s impossible then, in the next generation. I will tear down the impenetrable walls of Dmitry. I will definitely avenge this humiliation I suffered someday.’

The day Roman Dmitry visited the capital.

The meeting lasted all night.

In a situation where Valhalla’s future was being discussed, the leaders of Valhalla all agreed with evil faces.

Roman Dmitry made a mistake.

They would have accepted the new world if they had opened a way to compromise properly, but they were greatly stimulated by the way they openly ignored Valhalla.

Valhalla is not a country that will fall like this.

The Kronos Empire was caught up in a huge storm, but the Valhalla Empire wanted to prove that it was not over yet.

I suppressed my anger.

Accepted reality.

Although he is not familiar with his position as an underdog, Count Snowdin knew how to live for revenge.

It was then.

“Roman Dmitri is entering.”

out the door.

I heard the knight’s voice.

When the door opened and the main character appeared, everyone stood up and greeted Roman Dmitri as if they had promised.

The status of those who attended this event was clearly in the position of representing a country.

Even a light greeting is enough courtesy, but they didn’t hesitate to get up.

Also Count Snowdin.

I couldn’t just sit still.

Even if I couldn’t brighten my stiff face, I forced myself to get up and greet Roman Dmitri’s position.

Faced reality.

this look now

It was the right of the winner and the reality that the continent would face in the future.

* * *

Roman Dmitry naturally took the seat of honor.

No one was surprised.

Only Count Snowdin was uncomfortable, but everyone sincerely acknowledged that the owner of the place was Roman Dmitri.

hereby.

All gathered.

Roman Dmitri looked around the faces of the attendees and immediately got to the point.

“The reason we gathered all of you together is to discuss the future of the Salamander Continent. First of all, there is an issue that needs to be sorted out before discussing issues related to the Kronos Empire.”

The gaze was focused.

this meeting.

The map of the continent will be determined.

Count Snowdin also watched the situation closely with a nervous expression.

And the words that followed.

“The first issue is the treatment of the war criminals, the Valhalla Empire.”

Unexpected for Count Snowdin.

It was a truly shocking statement.
