Principality of Dmitry (2)

Henry Albert.

How did he live all this time?

At first, it was a simple job.

As Roman Dmitry's steps drew people's attention, the value of Henry Albert, the junction of the Southern Front, also rose.

The fact that he was an idiot of the Albert family didn't matter.

He requested a lecture at the Cairo Royal Academy, where he would not normally look up, and was given the opportunity to teach the children of a prestigious family.

then.

He didn't say anything.

What happened on the Southern Front, and how Roman Dmitry defeated the Kingdom of Hector. I was only stating what I had seen and heard, but the students in the lecture could not take their eyes off of the lecture.

Life has changed.

After the lecture, the children of the family recognized by the central government came to ask for an autograph, and looked up to Henry Albert as a hero like Roman Dmitry.

They didn't know the truth.

However, the mere fact that he was in a scene that others had not experienced changed his view of Henry Albert.

only one lecture.

explosive reaction.

Lectures were lined up.

Cairo's Royal Academy hoped to regularly stand on the pulpit, and to see Henry Albert shine his face elsewhere.

Of course, there was a price to be paid.

At first, people who went up to the pulpit simply for the sake of fame, started to come up with large sums of money to buy Henry Albert's time.

Did I say that a place makes a person?

Even as he walked the streets of Kairos, people recognized him, and Henry Albert, who lived like a fool, stretched his back and tried to act in accordance with his reputation as much as possible.

I started studying because I was worried that the students might ask difficult questions in the middle of the lecture, and I tried to make it look plausible by squeezing out my humble knowledge.

Thanks to.

Wealth and fame followed.

The people of the family were proud of Henry Albert, and at some point did not worry about money.

One lecture is tens of gold.

Some people say they give you more than a hundred gold, so what do you have to worry about?

"Oh, I'm happy."

only half a year.

I got a luxurious mansion in Kairos.

It was a mansion that I bought with the help of a network I made a acquaintance with while attending lectures, and the aristocrats living in the vicinity accepted Henry Albert as a really good neighbor.

The ideal life that I once imagined and smirked.

Henry Albert, who was sitting on a luxury sofa feeling cozy, suddenly felt that this comfort was an illusion.

In fact, he is nothing.

I'm lucky enough to live this life, but it wouldn't be strange at all if I fell into the abyss tomorrow.

It was accompanied by happiness and unhappiness.

At first, if I had just enjoyed a happy life, I turned to alcohol whenever anxiety arose.

Then one day.

Henry Albert faced a truly shocking moment.

"Henry Albert. I couldn't control my heart pounding as I listened to your lecture. The dedication of Cairo's heroes on the Southern Front made us so safe. Why did people live so unaware of such gratitude? Thanks to you, I got to know the reality. From now on, I will also contribute to the national defense of Cairo and tell people how useful and wonderful Henry Albert's lectures are."

A man in his late 60's.

With gray hair and a beard, he was one of the professors representing the Cairo Royal Academy.

On the pulpit, he is truly the most valued person, and he looked at Henry Albert with respect.

It was shocking.

The ignorant little ones can do that.

But, how could a person with academic aptitude after getting old look like that while looking at himself?

That moment.

Henry Albert had a life-changing realization.

own lecture.

Is it really that great?

no.

Absolutely not.

It was all thanks to Roman Dmitry that people nodded their heads, cheered at every word, and came to them as fans.

At first, he thought that it was his ability to use his reputation.

However, as Roman Dmitry took over the northeast area, his reaction towards him became more passionate, and he had no choice but to admit that this was not the case.

interest in yourself.

It comes from Roman Dmitry.

The more he gained fame, the more he made a name, the more Henry Albert benefited.

'Why do people go crazy with me?'

I thought carefully.

There were a lot of people on the Southern Front, and I couldn't readily understand whether they were particularly cheering for their words and actions.

The answer was simple.

Contact with Daniel Cairo.

In reporting the situation on the Southern Front, Henry Albert took on the role of giving the facts on behalf of Roman Dmitry.

It's not because he's an important person.

Except for Roman Dmitry, there was no other identity (noble) to face the king, and he suddenly appeared on the communication screen.

then.

people saw

The fact that Henry Albert took the place of Roman Dmitry's voice.

Unlike others who served on the Southern Front, Henry Albert had a clear track record.

'People are projecting Roman Dmitry through me. I don't know who I am, but they consider me a great person just because I replaced Roman Dmitry. That's funny. When I was called the idiot of the Albert family, the people who treated me as the same no matter what they did. Even though they are the same people as they were back then, their attitude towards me is completely different. It's not because they're stupid. If even the professors of Cairo's Royal Academy look up to me, it's a basic human instinct.'

only one fact.

It was enough to change my life.

I am convinced that even if I am not great, I can live a great life.

'Looking back on history, there were heroes who made famous in the world. How did they get such fame? It's not because he's achieved great achievements and the locals say he's the main character, but because he's famous and people who can get Congolese are working hard to spread rumors. From now on, it is clear what I must do to maintain wealth and fame. To announce to the world the achievements of Roman Dmitry. If he remains as a great person as he is now, the single fact that I lived with him on the battlefield would make my life easier.'

It wasn't that difficult to spread the word.

Roman Dmitry was constantly showing things that ordinary characters could not achieve in their lifetime.

Hector's Kingdom.

Dmitry Alliance.

Until the public ranking match and this civil war.

The grounds for the rumors were overflowing.

I just made it known to the people and fanned it, but people adored Roman Dmitry as a hero.

And of course.

Henry Albert naturally became the hero's companion.

I lay down on the sofa.

Over a glass of wine, Henry Albert smiled.

"Roman Dmitry. You and I are not as great as people say. But if you always live a life that others look up to, I will let the world know who you are, even for the sake of my comfortable life."

top quality wines.

put it on

The mansion where he lives, the sofa, and the wine.

Prove the life of Henry Albert.

That was the way of life of Henry Albert, who was once called a fool.

* * *

Henry Albert's method worked.

Roman Dmitry's move drew attention, thanks to the fact that he spread rumors in search of people.

And of course.

The biggest concern was the proclamation ceremony of the Duchy of Dmitry.

As Roman Dmitry, who is called the hero of Cairo, is taking his first step in history, even people from other countries have expressed their intention to attend the proclamation ceremony.

It was his admiration for Roman Dmitry, whom he had heard rumors about.

Even if the rumors were only half true, it was worth the long distance.

A few days before the proclamation.

Dmitry was distracted by the crowds from all over the continent.

In particular, Captain Jonathan, who was in charge of guarding the gates, showed a sign of admiration while checking the faces of the people.

'How can people from other countries flock to see Roman Dmitry? And among them are key figures representing each country. Yesterday, a person was sent from the Frankish Kingdom, and today, representatives of the three kingdoms belonging to the Kingdom Union also arrived from this morning. This means that they will acknowledge the existence of the Dmitry Principality and establish friendly relations in the future.'

The feeling was new.

just a few years ago.

Dmitry was a mutant in the northeast region.

The nobles did not recognize the family of commoners, and when Captain Jonathan said he would swear allegiance to Dmitry, his companions were terrified.

That was a natural reaction.

A three-star aura swordsman would have guaranteed the future, but I couldn't agree with the choice of Commander Jonathan.

But now things have changed.

Dmitry's value soared to the point where his colleagues occasionally contacted him about whether there were any seats available.

'Roman Dmitry. All thanks to him.'

he knew it too

Since Baron Romero is not very greedy, he might still be maintaining a confrontational relationship with Barco if Roman Dmitry hadn't shown a game-changing move.

Changes made by just one man.

It changed the temperament of the people, and the people of Dmitry were no longer ashamed of their common origin.

It was a great being.

People who came to Dmitry.

They all wanted to meet one person, and from one moment on, Roman Dmitry became Dmitry's pride.

'Jonathan. Keep your mind straight. In a situation like the one we have now, we should not get drunk with joy.

got my mind blown

He is the sword that protects Dmitry.

I had to be prepared for any unforeseen variables.

As he looked closely at the visitors, he found an unexpected person and widened his eyes.

" You?!

the man in front of you.

He was not a very fit person to bless Dmitry.

that time.

Baron Romero summoned his two sons.

'Before the declaration of the Duchy of Dmitry. I need to make sure the succession issue is closed. If you give hope to everyone with an ambivalent attitude, you will surely have problems after the establishment of the principality.'

skeletal conflict.

It was an outcome he didn't want.

Some fathers watch their sons compete and pass everything down to the winner, but Baron Romero hoped that wouldn't happen in the first place.

And in fact, my mind was already tilted to one side.

There have been years of dedication to the family by Rodwell Dmitry since he was a child, but I can assure you that if he raises him as heir now, the backlash of the people of the family will be great.

so.

made a place

In the case of the youngest, Lauren Dmitry, it was not called because it was far from competing for successors.

smart.

"Father, I will go in."

"Come in."

The door opened.

Seeing the two brothers representing the family, Baron Romero showed a heavy expression.

"The reason I called you guys is to clear up the family succession issue. As you know, in a few days Dmitry will announce a new start as a principality. It does not simply mean that Dmitry's power has grown stronger, but it also means that our responsibilities and duties are different from before. Many lives depend on one of our choices. Therefore, I am here to decide on the question of Dmitry's succession."

It was a dignified voice.

this place.

He was the head of Dmitry.

Baron Romero saw Rodwell Dmitry.

The fact that he had to say bad things to his son, who had lost one eye on the battlefield, made him feel uncomfortable.

In fact, he had a right to it.

If he said that his decision was unfair, then he thought he would rather invite the top officials and conduct a fair vote.

That was then.

father. There is something I want to tell you first."

It was Rodwell Dmitry.

Seeing Baron Romero with a puzzled look, he said with a calm face.

"I will give up my heir position. I think Roman hyung is a more suitable person for the position than me."

last few days.

Arriving in Dmitry after the war, he experienced a lot of things.
