The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life

Chapter 434 Overall Ranking (1)

1 hour ago.

Edwin Hector visited Dmitri.

Edwin Hector, who was polite towards Roman Dmitri, uttered a remark that baffled the onlookers.

“Your Majesty the Emperor. Please give mages a chance to participate in the ranking match that will be held this time.”

Ranking match!

It’s everyone’s concern right now.

Edwin Hector’s declaration of participation in the war was completely unexpected in a situation where opinions were divided on who would win.

In fact, it is not that the integrated ranking has not been discussed before.

Ever since rankings brought honor, wizards had once been greedy for the swordsman’s realm.

at that time.

The wizards’ plans were thwarted.

It wasn’t because of opposing opinions, but because of the characteristics of wizards, it was the result.

Mages are strong against multiple fights.

The wider the battlefield, the more topographical advantage was secured, and the explosive magical power of the magicians was overwhelming on the battlefield.

However, ranking matches were different from normal battlefields.

Because they had to engage in close combat with swordsmen in a confined space, wizards who had limitations in casting obviously had limitations.

Of course, the top wizards showed their skills beyond the restrictions, but the dominant judgment was that there was no need to dig their own graves and lower the status of the wizards.

said Roman Dmitry.

“Is there any particular reason?”

“This stage, hosted by His Majesty himself, is a great opportunity to prove yourself to everyone. I think wizards should be given that opportunity as well. Fighting in a confined space is not an advantage for mages, but I don’t think mages are weaker than swordsmen. If you accept my request. From now on, the combined ranking will not be the stage to determine the best swordsman, but the stage of competition to prove that you are the strongest person, excluding His Majesty the Emperor.”

Edwin Hector’s intentions.

I knew from the beginning.

The reason why he was willing to take the risk of ranking war was the truth of Hector Kingdom’s actions after the war.

Hector absorbed the Celestial Mage Tower.

As Edwin Hector himself was not only a great wizard, but he was reborn as a symbol of wizards, most of the wizards who had been based in the Cronus Empire turned to Hector.

It was a phenomenon born of faith.

As Alexander’s servant, who led the disappearance of the magicians, the magic tower in the sky was killed by Edwin Hector, so he believed that he would guarantee the safety and future of the magicians.

In fact, it was.

As Edwin Hector unfolded a policy for wizards, he received enthusiastic support from wizards.

Things changed quickly.

The magic power of Hector’s kingdom rapidly became stronger, and people called Hector the Magical Kingdom before they knew it.

‘All countries on the continent are paying attention to this ranking match. People who think Dmitri is out of the question are fighting each other to get the next power. If, in the current situation, the country’s potential is proven through the stage of the ranking match where everyone competes. Hector, who was once called a ruined country, can use his magical powers to become a new power at once.’

above the palm.

I put the map of the continent.

Even though he knew Edwin Hector’s intentions, he asked for his purpose, and Edwin Hector also clearly revealed his purpose as Roman Dmitri intended.

This was a fight for a new game.

It was to prove himself and prove how valuable Hector was in the future of Dmitry’s empire.

It was fun.

Even if the intention was blatant, Roman Dmitry highly praised Edwin Hector’s spirit of challenge.

blast furnace.

“Prince Edwin Hector. I will accept your request.”

Everyone literally poured oil on the stage of the festival that raised the heat.

* * *

Did you say that a horse without feet can travel a thousand miles?

Rumors spread quickly.

Rumors of the unification of the ranking match made everyone talk about the ranking match whenever people gathered in groups of two or three.

“Wow, sorcerers are joining the battle.”

“What do you think. Will mages be able to rise to the top of the ranks?”

“… Hmm. don’t want to be hard I’m not ignoring the potential of wizards, but all the swordsmen known on the continent will challenge it, so how can I handle it? Wizards are like a natural disaster where a single being wipes out thousands of enemies, but that doesn’t mean they can overwhelm a single swordsman. In a confined space, the disadvantages are inevitably highlighted.”

“Still, I don’t know if it’s Prince Edwin Hector. He has a history of stopping the attack of the Valhalla Empire.”

There was an uproar.

People blushed and foresaw the future of the ranking match.

sure thing.

The participation of wizards had a huge impact on box office success.

What kind of confrontation will the wizard and swordsman show, and what rank Edwin Hector, who is currently being discussed as the continent’s best wizard, will record.

attention was focused

Everywhere they went, stories about continental rankings were divided, and the stories branched out and led directly to new topics.

“Which country produces the most top-ranked players?”

The result is set.

Dmitri’s first place, but people’s interest was the potential of other countries against Dmitri.

Even if only half of the top 10 ranks besides Dmitri, countries with such strong players will gain considerable prestige.

The participation of wizards was just a factor to make the tournament more fun.

In fact, the reason why people first showed interest in this stage was the confrontation between Dmitry and other countries.

The gaze was focused.

While people were talking like that, time passed quickly and there were only a few days left until the day of the ranking match.

around that time.

Other countries, as much as people’s attention, were drawn into the atmosphere of the night before the storm.

* * *

Cronus at that time.

With Jowelson Kroit, now called the Emperor of Cronus, the top leaders of Cronus gathered in one place.

the leadership said.

“According to the current information, all countries, including Kronos, have prepared the strongest forces. Ranked matches now have a different meaning than in the past. In the past, ranking battles were a system Alexander created for Cronus, but now public opinion has formed as a stage for competition to prove the value of a nation. That is why, no matter what, Kronos must produce results.”

Everyone nodded.

Just like Hector faced a change.

The Kronos Empire also needed a new opportunity for the future.

Emperor Kronos said.

“Kronos is a war criminal nation that caused a continental war. In that war, we suffered significant damage to the extent that the roots of the empire were shaken, and even now we are living on thin ice every day because we cannot completely restore the damage. In order for Kronos to rise again, achievements in this competition are needed. That Kronos has not collapsed yet, that Kronos is a country of sufficient value in the future for Dmitri to move forward. If we don’t prove ourselves, we will fade into history.”

Reality has changed.

Cronus, once the ruler of the continent, now looked precarious on the edge of a cliff.

massive damage.

astronomical war reparations.

At least Roman Dmitri was merciful, so he was able to prevent the country from perishing, but it was embarrassing to call it an empire now.

That’s why the ranking match had to be even more special.

Not only Edwin Hector, but also Cronus risked life and death for this day.

“How is the state of our representatives?”

“Perfect.”

Grandmother of the Croyt family.

He was the Count of Bellatro.

he said with a firm voice.

“In the aftermath of the war, Cronus lost many things, but the power of the empire does not collapse overnight. There are new faces that have been enlightened through this war. In particular, Mendes, who was in the upper middle of the rankings and has now broken the 6-star boundary, will surely achieve results that live up to expectations.”

Mendes.

He was the new hopeful of Kronos.

I acknowledged his skills, but I couldn’t be relieved.

“Remember. Chronos is not the only one who regards this stage as an opportunity. trample them all live and die We will use this stage as a stepping stone to create a new future for the Kronos Empire.”

“I take orders.”

“I take orders.”

A booming voice.

that day.

The Kronos Empire had hopes for the future.

And as if they had made a promise to each other, the same situation was created in all the countries with the Games just around the corner.

* * *

The day of the decisive battle has dawned.

The rules of this contest were simple.

Dmitry Cairo Hector Umberto Redford Frank Kronos Valhalla A total of eight countries participated in the competition, and each country was promised 16 spots.

It was a method of selecting 16 people from each country, regardless of swordsman or wizard, and determining the 128th place in the overall ranking according to the results of the ranking match.

In fact, at first Dmitri was assigned more than half the seats.

However, it was judged to be unreasonable, so the first integrated ranking match was divided equally.

It’s just the first time anyway.

After the ranking of 128th place is sorted out, for the next year, we will freely fight each other to steal each other’s ranking.

And when the next unified ranking match was held.

At that time, rather than assigning a fixed seat to each country, the rankers who ranked 128th at the time will select the winner through fierce competition.

first competition.

People flocked to Dmitri.

In a situation worthy of the word “people, mountains, and seas,” the representatives of Cronus looked at the surrounding situation.

“Everyone doesn’t seem to be easy.”

“That’s right. It is clearly visible that each country has staked its life and death on this competition. It will probably be a difficult fight from the first round, but we must never lose to anyone.”

Everyone nodded.

Their leader was Mendes.

Mendes, a 6-star swordsman who created new hope in the downfall of Cronus, was training like crazy for the unified ranking match.

In fact, it only recognizes countries that differ only in words. He couldn’t be defeated.

No matter what opponent I met, I had a strong conviction that I would definitely enter the top rankings.

but.

“The problem is that I shouldn’t see Dmitri sooner… .”

16 of Dmitry.

Among them were Chris and Kevin.

Big figures like Fernando gave up participating in the war to be faithful to their roles, but Dmitri’s representatives knew that no one was easy.

That was the only worrying factor.

If he met Dmitri’s representative in the first round, no matter how strong Mendes was, he might have to stay in the bottom ranks.

that.

Absolutely could not tolerate it.

Since Kronos’s status must be saved, he will win somehow even if he meets Dmitri’s representative.

‘I’ll take this opportunity to clearly prove that the Empire is different from birth. Kronos will definitely put its name in the top 16.’

It was then.

The bracket has been announced.

The draw was conducted by lottery, and the process was fairly disclosed.

Names that are called sequentially.

Some cheered, some sighed, and in the midst of such a tangle of emotions, Mendes’ name was finally called.

“The 18th game, Mendes of the Kronos Empire.”

and.

“Kevin of Dmitry’s empire.”

the moment you hear that name.

Mendes felt like the sky was falling.

* * *

After bracket announcement.

Mendes was out of his mind.

I couldn’t find the confidence to win the top ranking at the thought of facing Kevin.

‘… All in all, it’s Kevin.’

Before and after the Continental War.

Kevin’s status has completely changed.

Nicknamed Dmitri’s goblin, he was recognized as a dangerous being from before, but people were shocked by the rumor that he had defeated Ares and dragged him around.

Ares is also the monster who destroyed Valhalla alone.

However, it was Dmitri’s demon who swallowed the monster.

for that reason.

All participants had a common wish not to meet the two beings.

I believed that if only Kevin and Chris didn’t meet in the early rounds, there was still a chance to do something.

“Enter the 18th participant.”

Finally.

order was called.

A high-ranking aristocrat of Cronus said while looking at Mendes with a nervous face.

“Mendes. I won’t tell you to beat Dmitri’s demon. Of course, if you can win, there’s nothing better than that, but even if you lose, prove to everyone that you’re not easygoing. And I promise you, if you win, your life will change completely.”

“… All right.”

He nodded.

It is an unavoidable fight.

If so, he had no intention of tarnishing the reputation of the Cronus Empire by calculating in his head like a coward.

In fact, thoughts about Kevin are just rumors.

He hadn’t met him directly, and rumors on the battlefield were often inflated.

It turned out that defeating Ares was not the result of his own power.

Even if all the rumors he had heard were true, Mendes, who had reached new heights, was confident in himself.

“I will win and come back.”

took a step

Holding a sharpened sword, he stood on the stage watched by countless people.

OK.

Bubbly.

I saw a man with a smaller build than I thought coming up from the other side.

Dmitry’s demon.

He was the rumored main character, Kevin.
