Epilogue, new days (8)

The situation was settled right away.

The moment Chris carried Dmitry on his back, Hector and Valhalla took a step back as if they had ever done so.

"On behalf of Valhalla, I apologize for Count Kazuri's atrocities. As soon as we return to Valhalla, we will punish them according to due process, and this will never happen again."

"I am also sorry for being rude. If you deal with it like that, we will not take this issue any further. And in the future, when problems arise between countries, we will consider Valhalla's position first."

It was a dramatic conclusion.

In fact, it was the best picture ever.

By giving Dmitry a justification to accept the deal, Valhalla was able to defend her pride without having to go to war.

Of course, he did apologize for Count Kazuri's troubles.

However, since Dmitry intervened in the process, it was the best scenario for Valhalla, who was prepared for war, to solve the problem to this extent.

So was Hector.

They left a precedent proving what kind of country Hector was, so there was nothing to lose even if it ended like this.

It was Chris' skill.

He made good use of Dmitry's position and warned that if two nations were to wage war, they should act within Dmitry's laws.

It was a quick response. Had he not been keeping an eye on Hector's relationship with Valhalla, the matter might have gotten worse before Chris took action.

Roman Dmitry overlooks a competitive society, but reckless warfare is a problem that upsets the balance of the world.

broke the seat

When the Emperor Valhalla left first, Chris spoke to Edwin Hector.

"I know what King Hector was thinking about doing this. Please keep that in mind. His Majesty, Roman Dmitry, is unwilling to get involved in everything. I want people to have their own autonomy, so even if this issue escalated into a war, it would have remained a problem for both countries. But that's it. His Majesty's reign comes from strong convictions. Even when issues like war escalate to extremes, Dmitry can handle them all, so he remains a bystander as long as he doesn't break the law. Never try to use that will. Even if Hector's future is bright, that is only to be expected when he can exist under Dmitry's rule."

It was a warning.

Edwin Hector walked the tightrope.

His attitude of using the situation appropriately touched Chris' heart.

Edwin Hector smiled.

"Hector never intends to go against Dmitry's will. Dmitry is the ruler of this world, and I also swore allegiance to His Majesty the Roman Dmitry Emperor. The problem this time around is just a fight for Dmitry's 'next'. We are fighting nerves in the hope that everyone will stay by His Majesty's side, so please do not take our intentions badly."

The world has changed.

As the powers of Kronos and Valhalla weakened, human life entered a new phase.

Two countries trying to protect the status of their empire.

And Hector takes over their place.

It was a new trend.

Edwin Hector revealed his aspirations, emphasizing his unchanging loyalty to Dmitry.

"I am and will always be. I will be sincere to His Majesty, Roman Dmitry."

It was certain.

Edwin Hector.

At some point, Hector will face a great revival centering on that person.

* * *

Like the case of Hector and Valhalla.

Big and small things happened in the world.

Even if the horde of evil threatening the world disappeared, human life did not always go smoothly.

A village in Arcadia.

A man whispered

"Hey, don't talk. Because the atmosphere of the Fortress Salamander Continent is bloody. Hector and Valhalla bumped into each other, and this time, the kingdom of Hector even crossed the border of Valhalla. Fortunately, things got better with Dmitry's intervention, but according to the salamander merchants, Hector and Valhalla will go to war someday."

"Isn't the continental war going to happen like in the past? Then Arcadia wouldn't be safe either."

"It really might be."

Anxiety prevailed.

last 3 years.

It was a peaceful time.

The mere mention of the word war again did not hide an ominous look on those who were imbued with peace.

That was then.

Said a woman who was looking after the children next to her.

"It won't happen."

"Isabel!"

woman's body.

It was Isabelle.

Abandoning the positions of queen and saint, she began a new life in an unknown village.

"At first, this case is different from the Continental War. If Kronos and Dmitry ended up with the intention of destroying each other, King Edwin Hector, who leads the kingdom of Hector, intentionally raised the plate to prove his country's potential. If the story can be heard from us beyond this endless mountain range, the kingdom of Hector would have accomplished its purpose without spilling a single drop of blood."

" Does that mean that there was no intention to start a war in the first place?"

"It is not. If Valhalla had gone to the extreme without anyone stopping him, Hector would have proved Hector's power even if he really waged a war. But it's nothing compared to the Continental War. The fight between the two countries would have ended in a simple battle for interests, and the loser would not have been able to raise their voice in the future. So don't worry everyone. As long as His Majesty Roman Dmitry rules the world, everything we fear will not happen. Even if the situation becomes extreme, all problems will be resolved the moment Dmitry intervenes, just like we defeated the Demon King."

"i See."

"As well No, it's Isabelle-sama!"

people admired

Clearly, Isabelle was different.

Even though it was far away from the Salamander Continent, Isabel read the map without any special information.

Isabel laughed.

"Then I'm alone."

Seeing her leaving holding the child's hand, people excitedly said that she wasn't the person to be here.

* * *

3 years ago.

Isabel left everything and went to Arcadia.

He took the people who lost their families in the Demon Realm to form a village, and that is the village he currently resides in.

Her day was calm.

Waking up early in the morning, she arranged the bedding and went out to take care of the crops.

Every time I checked the reality that warm sunlight was allowed in Arcadia, I felt a strange feeling.

After I finished my work, I went around the village and took care of the lives of the people I met.

"Are you okay with the leg you injured last time? If you leave it alone, you will get sick, so I will take care of your wounds."

"The supplies needed for the village have already been requested. They said the top will arrive tomorrow afternoon, so we should be able to get enough supplies by then. I'll give you mine if you need it."

"Give me that. I will move it with you."

"Did something like that happen?"

all the villagers.

When I met Isabelle, I smiled brightly.

Seeing her listening to and helping people, the villagers had no choice but to love her.

Then one day.

A boy who still needs his father's touch, grabbed his mother and asked who he was.

It was a difficult question.

The boy's father was one of the soldiers who followed Isabelle.

Isabel looked at him and took the boy in her arms and stroked his hair on behalf of his mother.

"Your father was a very brave man. There were bad things that threatened the world, and your dad has defeated them all so we can live happily ever after. So you deserve to live with pride. Later, when you grow up and go out into the world, if you tell me what your dad did, everyone will know how great a dad you are. And I really respect them. Without people like your father, this town and I would not exist."

" really?"

"okay. Has this sister ever lied to you?"

smiled brightly.

Lay down all your burdens.

Isabel lived for them.

Just as Leo and the soldiers believed in him and risked his life, he vowed to live for them until the end of his life.

some asked Are you satisfied with living like this that everyone has been advocating for?

Some might say it was a lie, but Isabel could tell for sure.

"If it's my sister, I'll believe it! I want to be like my dad when I grow up!"

children laughing together.

happy.

A world ruled by Dmitry.

The fact that she exists as a single human with nothing on her shoulders, Isabel was really happy with this life.

* * *

The years passed quickly.

several months after that.

Several things have been heard through the Salamander Continent.

The world was still buzzing, but with Dmitry holding the center, there were no major problems.

'Leo. It would have been great if you had experienced this world.'

suddenly suddenly.

Leo's presence came to mind.

He, who followed him to the Demon Realm, always said that he wanted to live a humane life.

At the time I thought it was impossible.

But that dream has come true.

Roman Dmitry.

It was all his abilities.

Naturally, beings born with overwhelming power will persecute people for their own sake, but as soon as the hordes of evil disappeared, Roman Dmitry's name was gradually forgotten.

It was an embarrassing phenomenon.

Roman Dmitry's name was heard everywhere when the world was in turmoil, but now the common people do not know how he lives.

for over 3 years.

Roman Dmitry did not reveal himself.

People did not understand such an emperor, but Isabel knew why Roman Dmitry lived that way.

'It must be to slow the cracks as much as possible.'

Defeating the Demon King

Roman Dmitry became a rift-causing entity.

The more he influences the world, the more severe the rift, so Roman Dmitry slows it down without revealing himself.

In fact, Isabel did not understand.

Why are you doing this? Even after ascending to a position where he can enjoy unparalleled power, why hide the truth and sacrifice for the sake of people?

sure thing is

It wasn't a choice made by anyone.

Roman Dmitry chose everything himself, and he was not a person who would regret his life even now.

Absolute place.

goal has been achieved

In the memory of those who do not know the truth, Roman Dmitry will be an absolute being who has never been defeated.

'I hope you feel the same happiness as me.'

Someday.

I wanted to talk to him.

Isabelle, who got out of her thoughts, headed to the temple.

Although she gave up the position of the saint, that did not stop her from worshiping the gods.

prayer to God.

I wanted to do a routine that repeats every day, just for today, for Roman Dmitry.

However.

Isabel, who was kneeling and praying, suddenly opened her eyes wide at the divine energy surrounding her body.

This was a very familiar phenomenon. I was drawn to such a power and heard the voice of God before.

It was as expected.

God's voice was heard.

When the story of God was all over, Isabelle could not hide her trembling eyes.

" iced coffee."

That day has come.

what god said

The time I hoped would not come.

that time.

Roman Dmitry left the Imperial Palace.

It was an unofficial outing that was not reported.
