Predator's Way (4)

Spectators watching the stage.

They felt that the thought circuit was stopped.

Who is Barbossa?

Although there were some dishonorable rumors that he usually used poison, it is an undeniable fact that he rose to the position of the Twelve Swords on the Continent with his skills.

Barbosa's skills are real. Although Morales criticized Barbossa, the reason he could not apply for a confrontation was due to a difference in skill.

By the way.

How would you describe the scene in front of you?

People stared at the stage with a bewildered face, even in a situation where there was a final decision.

" Am I looking in vain?"

someone's words.

It was everyone's idea.

Even before the showdown, people expressed outrage at rumors about Roman Dmitry.

In the first place, Roman Dmitry was at a disadvantage.

Although he showed overwhelming force in the duel with Morales, most people were convinced of Barbosa's superiority.

situation where the outcome is obvious. People flocked to the festival venue, and they grunted their teeth, saying that they would not stand still if the facts of poison were revealed.

Victory was not expected.

Your opponent is Barbosagi.

Roman Dmitry would have been recognized if he overcame the bad conditions of taking poison and showed an equal match.

so that.

I couldn't believe it even more.

Roman Dmitry won.

It consistently outperformed opponents, and Barbosa never had an edge over Roman Dmitry.

When we first exchanged workshops. People admired Barbosa's skillful appearance.

Even though Roman Dmitry tried to attack quickly, Barbosa's response was exactly what people had hoped for.

But the second attack.

3rd attack.

When the fourth attack was attempted, the crowd, like Barbossa's cracking face, was colored with embarrassment.

it didn't make sense

Barbossa.

Twelve Swords of Continent.

I couldn't do anything.

Watching the final disappearance, people did not accept it even though it was the result of seeing it with their own eyes.

Not only that.

even with disastrous results.

The fact that Roman Dmitry's 'power' had not been confirmed yet fell heavily on people's hearts.

" The battle between Barbossa and Roman Dmitry. The winner is Roman Dmitry."

on stage.

The referee announced the result in a trembling voice.

Denial is only fleeting.

I had to accept reality.

At the sight of Roman Dmitry standing alone on the stage, the crowd shouted simultaneously as if exploding.

"Wow!"

"Roman Dmitry won!"

"It is the birth of a new Continental Twelve Swords!"

Cheers spread like wildfire.

Still.

People did not fully accept reality.

However, the fact that Roman Dmitry, who showed the pride of a warrior in a confrontation with Morales, defeated Barbosa, was the truth that could be confirmed with both eyes.

It was a pleasure. The fact that those who knew the honor of Valhalla were not defeated. The fact that even after taking poison, he overturned the board with his skills.

people shouted

Although not from Valhalla, Roman Dmitry deserved cheers in honor of the warriors.

That was then.

On the stage that everyone is excited about.

One went up.

The man with a slightly nervous expression was Greg, who had received a mission from Roman Dmitry.

* * *

a day ago.

Greg did not understand Roman Dmitry's intentions.

I knew exactly what the intention was, but I wanted to somehow stop Roman Dmitry from sticking with a futile plan.

'Even if you analyze the composition of poison, losing the battle with Barbosa is meaningless. Do you really believe that Roman Dmitry can defeat Barbossa? He acknowledges his skills in the fight against Morales, but he won't be given a chance to prove that he uses poison.'

It was hopeless.

Morales' death.

After confirming the events of that day, Greg and others tried to save Roman Dmitry somehow.

this plan.

It was very dangerous.

If Barbosa finds out that there are gangs thwarting his plans, he will surely slaughter Greg and others.

It's a risk taking. While analyzing the composition of the poison, there was hesitation that he had to step out, but he did not want to betray Roman Dmitry.

Valhalla.

I was rotting in such a weak heart.

The forces leading the current Valhalla did not risk their lives any longer while crying out for Valhalla.

So Greg risked his life.

so risked his life

And.

I witnessed the results right before my eyes.

Seeing him destroy Barbosa, Greg was convinced.

Even though it was exposing his face, he appeared in front of people and presented evidence to prove the poison.

"I risked my life for you. So, reveal the ugly truth to people. So that the people of Valhalla know a little shame. Roman Dmitry. What a tough stage you have overcome."

Good job.

accepted the evidence.

People's attention was focused.

With everyone questioning Greg's existence, Roman Dmitry looked up at the emperor and raised his voice.

"Yesterday evening. Someone poisoned my tea. What I have now is proof that the car was poisoned, and you can check it yourself if you need to. Actually, it doesn't really matter to me who the poison was used by. However, I am disappointed with Valhalla's attitude towards this case."

tuk.

threw the evidence.

It fell to the floor, revealing a black color, proving that Roman Dmitry's words were true.

"When I realized the existence of poison and tried to confirm the truth. Viscount Jonathan asked me if I could be held responsible for remarks that were insulting to Valhalla. Isn't that a really fun situation? I am just a foreigner in a foreign country. In a situation where the servants at the hostel said that poison came from the car they had prepared, I felt really sorry for Valhalla's attitude of shifting responsibility rather than checking the truth. I will not make any assumptions. Common sense would have poisoned the car with someone who wanted to knock me down, but Viscount Jonathan's response to denying the truth right in front of me proved that Valhalla's pride had fallen to the ground. So I accepted the challenge. Even though my body was not made intact by the poison, I did not want to follow the intentions of the group that used male and female."

The poison had no effect.

However.

did not reveal the truth.

The people of Valhalla liked to think they had won the match at a disadvantage even though they had been poisoned.

Spectators.

Their emotions were boiling.

Hearing Roman Dmitry's words, they blushed as if they had made a shameful mistake.

How shameful is this?

He invited strangers from other countries and used poison to manipulate the match in a place called the Warrior's Country.

Unfortunately, I couldn't look right into Roman Dmitry's face.

"I would like to ask the Emperor. I heard that Valhalla is a land of warriors. But, is the way they persecuted me and held me accountable for trying to find out the truth, is it really in line with the values Valhalla pursues? If I had lost the battle with Barbossa. The truth must have been buried, and the swordsman Roman Dmitry must have disappeared into history as a mere existence. Emperor's Majesty. I hope for an answer on this matter."

on stage.

looked up at the emperor.

At Roman Dmitry's remarks, Emperor Valhalla expressed his discomfort from the expression on his face.

* * *

said Emperor Valhalla.

"The look of the empire has become ridiculous."

that also.

The truth didn't matter.

The fact that Barbosa uses poison?

knew

The problem was that they were defeated unilaterally even with poison, and the ugly truth provided an excuse for people to be exposed.

ruined the nightlife.

Roman Dmitry's power was shockingly great, but the fact that he showed his 'teeth' towards him touched the heart of Emperor Valhalla.

"Viscount Jonathan. Are Roman Dmitry's words true?"

under the chair.

Among the nobles lined up, Viscount Jonathan said with a pale face.

" Sorry.

"Yeah, that's true."

this moment.

Marquis Belfir didn't say anything.

Emperor Valhalla is a man who is sure to be punished for his responsibility.

I couldn't predict what kind of situation I would face if I uttered such a lenient remark in the current situation.

squeaky.

got up from his seat

Emperor Valhalla drew his sword from the waist of the knight next to him.

"Come before me, sinners."

Viscount Jonathan trembled.

A sword glistening in the sun.

My heart went down.

Sensing the cool sensation, Viscount Jonathan rushed to the floor and fell flat on the floor, pleading with an earnest voice.

I'm really sorry. The day before the festival, it seems that there was a rush to finish the situation first, thinking that something unpleasant should not happen. I will be careful to make sure this never happens again. please just save me For the rest of my life, I will devote myself to the sake of the Valhalla Empire."

"Don't be mean."

tuk.

He pushed Viscount Jonathan with the tip of his sword.

Viscount Jonathan clenched his teeth and endured the pain at the sharp pain piercing through his flesh.

said Emperor Valhalla.

"Viscount Jonathan. You have dishonored the honor of Valhalla. The festival to honor the souls of the warriors was ruined by your negligent response. And I have no intention of giving a chance to scum like you."

"I, please Ouch!

puck!

swung his sword

The fragile arm of Emperor Valhalla cut off Viscount Jonathan's head without hesitation.

blood splashed

Viscount Jonathan trembled and trembled, desperately trying to grab Emperor Valhalla's trouser crotch.

Emperor Valhalla continued to swing his sword.

The body that was not properly trained could not cut off the strong man's neck at once, and even though the area around him was stained with blood as he swung his sword several times, Viscount Jonathan did not stop breathing.

Even the people of Valhalla were brutal enough to play a role. The sound of poking in the flesh kept ringing in my ears.

Finally.

dump.

Viscount Jonathan's body collapsed.

Emperor Valhalla grinned as he brushed his blood-stained hair behind his back.

"Whoops, whoops. That's enough, whoops. Will I be able to take responsibility for this?"

gasped for breath.

Gaze at Roman Dmitry.

It was clearly the appearance of a madman.

nevertheless.

Roman Dmitry looked up at the emperor with an unwavering face.

"It's not enough. Murder is not the solution to the problem. Punishing Viscount Jonathan is only a personal punishment. We ask that you take institutional measures so that something like this does not happen again."

An attitude that never backs down.

Emperor Valhalla smiled brightly.

It was certain.

Roman Dmitry did not feel fear even in the face of the Emperor of the Empire.

* * *

The situation is over.

The two pillars of Valhalla.

Count Gomes and Marquis Belfir followed the emperor.

As the blood dripped onto the floor as they walked forward, they couldn't utter a word.

"Count Gomes. What do you think of Roman Dmitry?"

" He's a dangerous figure. Barbosa is the Twelve Swords of the Continent. If his skills are enough to overwhelm him, Roman Dmitry may be the most powerful person on the continent to discuss. Of course, I don't think he's the strongest. Barbosa is not a top performer in the ranks within the continental twelve swords. However, it cannot be overlooked that Roman Dmitry is not yet 30 years old."

"Marquis Belfir, what do you think?"

Marquis Belfir didn't look good.

Viscount Jonathan's death lingered in his mind, but now was not the time to offend the Emperor Valhalla.

"I am like Count Gomes. But what I think is the most dangerous is not Roman Dmitry's personal powerlessness. After all, there is a limit to what an individual can handle in a war between nations. But Roman Dmitry. Dare to set foot in the Empire's territory, he showed no sign of backing down. He is born with a predisposition to predators. Knowing that he used poison, he accepted the confrontation with Barbossa, and after defeating him, he revealed the truth in a spot where people's attention was focused. It is knowing the time. If I had said that offstage, I would have shut up Roman Dmitry."

Roman Dmitry's walk.

It was disappointing.

The perfect plan to avenge the Earl of Denver was torn apart by Roman Dmitry.

Emperor Valhalla grinned.

excited

In the boring life, a really interesting existence appeared.

"Roman Dmitry dared to criticize my punishment. He is a warrior worthy of Valhalla, but he cannot be spared for the future of Valhalla. Fully support Kronos' plan. We must never bring Roman Dmitry back alive, so that he cannot return safely to Dmitry."

peers like yourself.

Murder occurred.

Emperor Valhalla wished for Roman Dmitry's death.

The collusion with Kronos was something the conservatives were opposed to.

However, the conservative Count Gomes did not refute the appearance of a dangerous existence named Roman Dmitry.

that also.

Roman Dmitry admitted to being in danger.

Even if it was different from the will of the conservatives, he compromised with reality for the sake of real profit.

"I will obey your orders."

"I will definitely kill Roman Dmitry."

they were sure

Roman Dmitry.

You will never be able to come back alive.
