The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life

Chapter 421 Nongonghaengsang (1)

The coronation ceremony ended in great success.

Dmitri officially declared himself an empire, and representatives of all countries supported Dmitri’s cause.

If there was anything special, it was the part related to the Luna Kingdom. Recently

, as reports came in that the Arcadia continent’s climate was stabilizing, Roman Dmitri accepted the will of the people of the Luna Kingdom and decided to annex Luna.

Queen of Luna.

Isabelle is currently missing.

The annexation of the country was a very sensitive issue, but Isabel expressed her intention to leave Luna in the care of Roman Dmitri before leaving.

Thanks to that, the work went smoothly.

Dmitri did not forcibly seize the lands of Cronus and Valhalla, but declared the entire vast continent of Arcadia beyond the endless mountains as an imperial domain.

In fact, since this story had been discussed in advance, Roman Dmitry decided that there was no need to risk merging the two empires unreasonably.

It was an ideal finish.

There was a sensitive problem called the Pandemonium, but under Roman Dmitri’s control, the continent quickly regained stability.

a few days after that.

Dmitry’s mansion.

Looking out at the well-kept garden from the terrace, Chris, the owner of the mansion, was lost in thought.

‘… What should I ask for as an alternative reward?’

a few days ago.

In the performance of the lecture in front of everyone, Roman Dmitry fulfilled his words.

Jonathan Knight Commander is the leader of the Imperial Knights, Felix is the head of the Imperial Tower, Fernando is the captain of the capital guards, and so on. It became.

Chris too.

acquired great wealth

The splendid mansion where he is now staying was also a statue of Roman Dmitri, so he had no worries about money in the future.

the problem is.

Roman Dmitri’s reward did not end there.

“I don’t know what you really want. I will give you the time of the fortnight ahead. If you think you need anything, come to me and ask for it. I will give ample rewards to those who have made the mark.”

choice of compensation.

It was unconventional.

Chris was able to choose his own compensation instead of a special position, and he had to ponder for days after that.

Roman Dmitry said that there are no restrictions on compensation.

He promised that if characters like Chris would leave the SS and hope for a wealthy life, he would gladly allow them a new life.

“ha.”

A sigh came out.

It felt like my brain was full.

In fact, Chris didn’t go to war hoping for a reward, and he wasn’t sure how to use the enormous wealth he had in his hands.

If I had a family to take care of, I might have thought of a really peaceful retirement.

There was nothing more important to him now than his growth as a prosecutor.

Yes.

I didn’t even want to give up the reward.

Chris, who had been thinking about it for a long time, got up from his seat, leaving the car almost untouched.

“I guess I should meet other people.”

The choice is not exclusive to him.

other people.

Chris thought the decision would be a little easier if he met the people who had already claimed compensation.

* * *

First person.

It was Count Fabius.

When he visited his newly gifted estate this time, Chris was guided to a truly dazzlingly luxurious mansion.

It was truly a golden feast.

From the exterior, he openly revealed that he was a rich man, and when he arrived at the guest room, even the teacup glittered in gold.

‘… Is the teacup pure gold?’

Indeed, it was Fabius.

yet.

Count Fabius appeared with a bright face hanging from the trinkets as colorful as the exterior of the building.

“Chris! welcome!”

“It’s been a while, Marquis Fabius.”

Yes.

Fabius was no longer a count, but a marquis, and as if he had been eating well and living well, his plump flesh and even greasy face gleamed.

Marquis Fabius sat down and smiled kindly.

Dmitri’s powerful people, like Chris, were included on the list of contacts to be specially managed by Marquis Fabius.

“But what are you doing here?”

“… I came here because I wanted to know what Nongonghaengsang asked for. Of course, it is roughly expected, but I think my choice will be easier if I listen to the situation myself.”

“Oh, was that a problem?”

choice of compensation.

There were only a few people in that category, and it is not clear exactly what each individual requested.

But it was obvious that it was Marquis Fabius.

The lavish surroundings were beyond what he received as a war bounty, and people thought he was getting something special from Roman Dmitri.

It was as expected.

Marquis Fabius said.

“It is not difficult to talk about compensation. I wished for inexhaustible wealth and power from my lord. Aren’t bounty money enough to live happily for the rest of your life? Then, the lord bestowed the territory here. It is the home of a person who was purged during the civil war in Cairo, and the family has fertile land and gold mines behind it for generations, so it is truly a net exhaust land. In particular, since I am in a very important position passing through Dmitry and Cairo, my lord said that if I cultivate my foundation well here, my power and wealth will last forever. Hehehehe, isn’t it really great?”

Fabius was originally a Cairo nobleman.

However, several such figures moved away and, instead of selling their original lands to Cairo, they were granted new territories by Roman Dmitry.

Dmitry expanded the country a little as the rebellion was settled as well as the northeast area.

This was part of the promise with Cairo, and the lands that lost their owners in the process were granted to figures who made merit like Marquis Fabius.

of course.

Not everyone was like that.

As Dmitri grew into an empire, some characters moved to the continent of Arcadia and chose a new life.

“I mean. I will devote my life to serving my lord. It is true that I have made my own contributions in this war, but how common are countries that reward me this much? I am ready to give my life for my lord. If you are asking about satisfaction with compensation, I am very, very, very satisfied.”

burst out laughing

The bright face was really happy.

‘… It’s amazing.’

Chris admitted it too.

Marquis Fabius has been given a reward that guarantees a future, and, as Roman Dmitri said, he will be able to enjoy wealth and glory for the rest of his life.

What if you wanted a similar reward yourself?

If he migrated to Arcadia and seized the fertile land, he might enjoy more power than Fabius.

but.

did not agree

Chris asked what came to his mind.

“By the way, there is another building going up right nearby. What is it for? It was quite large for general use, so it caught my eye.”

“Oh is that it?”

I grinned.

Marquis Fabius lowered his head and met Chris’ gaze with a sinister face.

“I am trying to build my own harem. Isn’t that the true romance of a man? Ha ha ha.”

sure

Fabius was a man who truly enjoyed the rewards of war.

* * *

Second person.

It was Felix.

After visiting him and asking him the same question, Felix directed Chris somewhere.

“… This place?”

“It is the site of the new Mage Tower.”

It was a large piece of land.

The workers were busy working, but Chris was completely overwhelmed by the sheer scale.

“Actually, the Imperial Magic Tower was my requirement from the beginning. I wanted to build a mage tower that represents the Dmitry Empire and build a system to discover talent and nurture mages within the empire. To do so, facilities worthy of its status and a huge budget were required every year, but the lord allowed all of this. Rather, in the case of the budget, he promised more budget than I thought.”

new tower.

Felix looked at me proudly.

The fact that Phoenix, who had lived in poverty in the Frankish kingdom, had grown to this extent, was heartbreaking.

“Actually, I want Chris to be honest with himself. Some say that the reward I seek is a good thing for the national interest, but this is purely out of my personal desire. The mage tower created by this Felix becomes the best on the continent. I will enjoy the wealth and glory that result from that result, and it is my dream to become a figure in the history of magic. I heard that even Marquis Fabius was really given a reward for an individual, but there is no law against Chris-sama.”

Rumors spread slowly.

As those who received the reward praised Roman Dmitry, people stuck out their tongues at the level of non-professional performance.

It was a perfect match.

While punishing Ares, he did not allow a single precedent, but at the same time promised to reward those who made contributions excessively.

Marquis Fabius and Felix.

As people who were rewarded in such a way appeared, they proved that Roman Dmitri’s remarks were true.

Chris didn’t answer.

I stood there and watched the construction of the mage tower for a while.

Last figure.

It was Jonathan Knight Commander.

After a long training session, during a break, he sat down next to Chris with a sweaty face.

“So how are you now?”

“yes.”

It was an interesting question.

Knight Commander Jonathan looked at Chris with a smile as if he was thinking about something.

“chris. As you know, the Knights of Dmitry in the past weren’t that great of a group. Due to the existence of you and I, we barely had an assortment, but if we looked at the kingdom as a whole, it was nothing special. By the way. A lot has changed now from then. I want everyone to belong to the Knights of Dmitri, and my lord has accepted all of my requests for the development of the Knights of Dmitry.”

that too.

It was similar to Felix.

While Fabius purely followed his personal desires, Knight Commander Jonathan hoped for the development of the system in the future.

“That’s why I have nothing but gratitude to my lord. Although they obviously know that it will help them, most of the continent’s leaders aren’t too keen on investing. But our lord, Emperor Dmitry, is different. Although he demanded it as a reward for war, he gave a sure reward more than we thought. Everything for my dream and my personal happiness.”

landscape in front of you.

It was beautiful.

Watching the people training under Dmitri’s name, Knight Commander Jonathan seemed like a dream come true.

“The lord is such a great person. Even though people are rewarded with certainty so that they do not regret sacrificing for Dmitri, and each person’s power grows stronger, no one dares to exceed the master’s authority. chris. Whatever you choose, it doesn’t matter. The person we serve is a great and strong person who can take on all our desires, so I hope you can honestly say what you really want. You will know. While talking with me, thinking over and over before coming to find me. what you really want.”

It was plainly visible on the face.

Chris clearly wanted something, but it didn’t seem like he knew exactly what it was.

like that.

The last meeting was over.

Even after the sun went down and I went to bed, I couldn’t sleep all night because of the thoughts that were disturbing my head.

and the next day.

Chris got some unexpected news.

The news was that Kevin had gone to Roman Dmitri for compensation before he did.
