Special (1)

After the passionate festival was over.

Roman Dmitry and his party immediately packed their bags.

Since there was no reason to stay in Valhalla any longer, I decided to use the warp gate to move to Dmitry's 'Adelian'.

By the way.

When I visited the warp gate, the person in charge responded that it was difficult.

" We are sorry, but it seems that it will be difficult to use the Warp Gate for the time being. We are also trying to solve the Warp Gate problem quickly, but according to the opinion of the man in charge of maintenance, it will take about a fortnight. Why don't you stay in Marine for a while? It takes a long time to travel on foot, so I will contact the upper level and arrange a new accommodation for Roman Dmitry."

A polite attitude and a kind smile.

The person in charge showed an appropriate response, but Roman Dmitry knew the secret behind it.

'The warp gate was blocked as expected.'

a day ago.

The head of the Valhalla Intelligence Guild told Roman Dmitry about the changes in the Marine that happened overnight.

"From the Valhalla imperial court, an order has been issued to close the warp gate. On the surface, it may appear that a malfunction is the cause, but in reality there is nothing wrong with it. I'm sure you'll get the same answer in any city that has a 'warp gate' around Marine. They now want the master to move on foot."

From Marin to Dmitry.

It was quite a distance.

Even if they were traveling on horseback, it was a distance that could not be afforded in a month or two, and the use of the warp gate was essential to return to Dmitry.

After all, as time goes by, the Valhalla Empire has no choice but to open the Warp Gate.

The problem is that it will take a lot of time until then, and it is impossible to predict what kind of work Valhalla's plot will be.

'There is only one way. Arriving at the trading city of Valhalla, a month away from Marin. A trading city with hundreds of warps every day incurs astronomical losses with just one closure, so the Valhalla Empire cannot hold us back for a long time. They must have the same thoughts as us. From Marine to Trading City. It is clear that we will see a match within the time of that month.'

Valhalla.

It was a rotten country.

The thought that he might defend his honor as a warrior by any chance delivered a clear message with the closure of the Warp Gate.

the expected sea.

Roman Dmitry turned around.

If your options are limited.

Conversely, they will actively respond to their intentions.

* * *

a few days later.

The Marquis of Belfir received the report.

"Roman Dmitry has left Marine and is heading to the 'trading city'. As expected. They seem to have decided that it was safer to travel through the trading city than to stay in Valhalla."

"You are quick-witted. So, when is the right time to attack them?"

that In fact, a problem has arisen."

Information received from informants.

Suha said with a puzzled face.

"As you know, Roman Dmitry gained immense fame at once due to the festival of Valhalla. With the people of Valhalla praising him, Roman Dmitry deliberately entices people to follow their path. So now there are many eyes and ears towards Roman Dmitry. Knowing that Roman Dmitry will soon leave Valhalla and never see him again, the people of Valhalla are biting their tails as if on a pilgrimage until he arrives at the trading city."

The beginning was a rumor.

Hearing that if you welcome Roman Dmitry, you will receive the blessing of Valhalla, the people gladly left the city.

Roman Dmitry vs. Barbossa.

What happened that day left a huge shock.

People remembered that Roman Dmitry raised his honor as a warrior even though he was poisoned with poison, and the emotions that spread like fever formed a large crowd.

It was a very difficult situation to attack openly. If Roman Dmitry was attacked, hundreds of people would watch it.

when you first entered the country.

Roman Dmitry was nothing more than a foreigner.

He, who was despised by the people, has now become a hero of Valhalla that is recognized by everyone.

"If we attack Roman Dmitry now, civilian casualties are inevitable. Please give the order. If necessary, the procession of the people can be disrupted through a summons order, but after that, it will be difficult to escape the suspicion that Roman Dmitry was intentionally endangered. Roman Dmitry is no longer common. People think of him as a symbol of a warrior."

Marquis Belfir looked out the window calmly.

Valhalla is a deformed country.

Most of the work was carried out by the nobles, but in the wrath of Emperor Valhalla, a powerful person like Viscount Jonathan died casually.

The treason could not even be dreamed of.

Top rankers representing Valhalla. Even Barbossa could not surpass them, and they all showed blind loyalty to the Emperor Valhalla.

The reason for the loyalty was still unknown.

As they followed the powerless Emperor Valhalla, their 14th son was able to ascend to the throne.

this day.

risked life

If Roman Dmitry was sent to life, what kind of punishment might fall.

Marquis Belfir said.

"The existence of the people does not have to be a big concern. When it comes to attacking Roman Dmitry, our job is not to take the initiative and lead the situation. In the realm of Valhalla, the guest we invited dies. If it turns out that it was a plan led by Valhalla, it would cause quite a stir."

in the first place.

The subject of this plan is not Valhalla.

Valhalla only participated, but there were other beings who would actually lead this work.

"We just pass the information and close our eyes. Even if Roman Dmitry dies. If you show only a reasonable bystander and minimal effort to avoid responsibility for what happened in Valhalla. We can kill Roman Dmitry without much effort. So, tell Kronos. Whatever you do, we won't hold you accountable for it."

cold voice.

The Marquis of Belfir had no doubts that the plan would succeed.

* * *

The attack started without notice.

In response to the death that was captured by his sensitive senses, Roman Dmitry drew his sword as if he had been waiting.

"The enemy! Evacuate the people!"

Okay.

sudden situation.

The people of Valhalla responded with bewilderment.

They formed a procession with Roman Dmitry, attacking the warriors who dared to stage the festival in the land of Valhalla.

Their eyes widened as the people retreated to a safe distance.

It was a face that he was sure to check out what kind of motherfuckers were doing this.

That moment.

Papa Pat-

A dagger was fired through the bushes.

Even in broad daylight, beings with black cloths on their faces jumped out simultaneously, creating an aura.

Curly rumble.

were shadows.

The Kronos Empire did not hide its intentions.

Even if they were criticized by the international community for encroaching on Valhalla's territory, they hoped they would openly reveal their intention to kill Roman Dmitry.

Shadows quickly flooded the space.

As the soldiers in front slashed their daggers, they menacingly stretched out their daggers shimmering in a black aura.

hook.

Kaang!

blocked the attack.

it was chris

He, who was at the forefront of blocking the attacks of the enemies, swung his sword before the shadows even reacted.

'Island Battle.'

one flash.

Dark red blood spurted from the shadow's body.

Her body tangled in darkness scatters into the shadows and tries to let the attack flow, but Chris' sensitive senses cut the link between mana and his body at once.

Time to prepare for Valhalla. Roman Dmitry's men did not simply train to become stronger.

If Kronos was aiming for Roman Dmitry's life, he knew that he could not avoid a clash with the shadows.

"From now on, you guys will be training how to deal with the shadows."

extreme training.

It was time to bleed.

In training where every moment was a crisis, Chris was able to capture a flow of mana he had never seen before.

momentary gap.

Chris sprinted forward.

It was not enough to cut down the shadow that rushed in first, but it slaughtered the bodies of the shadows attacking from all directions in an instant.

People watching the situation from afar exclaimed in admiration.

The notoriety of the shadows is great. It is known that he cannot fight with normal strength, but Chris' response was perfect.

It's just the beginning.

Roman Dmitry said.

"Kill the enemies."

on that command.

Behind Chris, two big boys jumped forward.

* * *

Under load following Roman Dmitry.

Who is taking the role of the vanguard?

Kris?

no.

He's by far the best player outside Roman Dmitry, but he's not the front-liner, he's balanced the battlefield appropriately.

If there is a place where it is inferior, a movement in the form of supporting it.

Roman Dmitry wanted Chris to grow not just as a sword, but as a commander to replace him.

So Kevin?

neither is it

He is the sharpest sword Roman Dmitry trusts, but there are others who deserve it as a vanguard.

Right away.

Kwajik!

It was Volcan and Pooky.

Exposing their ragged muscles, they swung their great swords and turned the shadows' bodies into chunks of meat at once.

A terrifying cracking sound was heard.

It was the sound of tearing apart human bodies like paper, and they dug into a space full of shadows without hesitation at Roman Dmitry's command.

Quiet rumble.

Attacks came from all sides.

Some shadows created shadows and captured the opponent's body, while others attacked the moment by aiming at the blind spot.

Pak!

The shadow was released by force.

Volcan diddge the attack with a short delay, then slashed the shadow in front of him with an aura burning red.

Kwajik.

At the same time.

Volcan turned to the side, and as he let out the opponent's attack, the shadow had no choice but to face Puki, who appeared from behind.

As if he had anticipated the fact that Volcan would move like that.

Pooky was already wielding his sword, and before the shadow could respond, the shadow's body was torn to pieces.

poof.

blood splashed

Pooky rushed forward like crazy.

I wasn't worried about being isolated.

When dealing with the frantic attacks of the incoming enemies, Volkan intervened at the right time and gave Pooky a chance to breathe.

It was a similar situation as before.

Just as Volkan trusted Pooky's existence and cast a shadow, Pooky was also conscious of Volkan's existence and entrusted it to him.

the fight in the past.

Volcan and Pooky always moved together.

At first, they found Dmitry for different reasons, but they quickly developed a relationship through the commonality of being a war mercenary.

Even the tendencies were similar.

The two wanted to fight fiercely at the forefront, and they began to develop into a form that complements each other as they experience many big fights.

A limb infested with enemies.

There, Volcan and Pooky showed an overwhelming presence.

Roman Dmitry's men grew up in their respective roles, and they served as vanguard.

It was a melee war.

In the complicated battle, Roman Dmitry's forces did not retreat a single inch.

Some had prepared for the existence of the shadows in advance, but the victory in the past gave them infinite confidence.

behind them.

There is Roman Dmitry.

For that one fact alone, they risked their lives without even the slightest doubt of victory.

Kwareung.

Curly rumble.

When the soldiers open the way.

Roman Dmitry took care of the situation.

The existence of the shadow, which he had already experienced once, did not pose any threat to Roman Dmitry.

Was it because it was dark?

At the noticeably decreasing number, the shadows suddenly escaped like an ebb.

That moment.

A shadow shrugged and smiled.

"Don't think it's over."

That means.

Kronos revealed his intentions.

They have experience with Roman Dmitry.

Even Roman Dmitry, who was alone, could not be suppressed, and he would not have thought that he would succeed in assassination with only this level of power.

Still, the reason why he showed up and attacked. The intention to break down slowly was clear.

They learned that Roman Dmitry was heading to the trading city, and they openly declared war so that they could not be comfortable for a month.

fatal (必殺).

There was no option for them to save Roman Dmitry alive.

Things were sorted out.

Leaving behind the people who were murmuring from afar, a man wearing a robe approached Roman Dmitry.

"A video?"

"Saved successfully."

robin.

He was the information officer of Valhalla.

From the time I left Marine, I ordered the use of the 'magic image storage' through the director of Valhalla.

not in storage.

It contains a series of situations.

Roman Dmitry said.

"From now on, spread the video to the people of Valhalla. So that the whole of Valhalla will know what is going on here."

Okay.

Fighting is unavoidable.

if so.

From now on, I was thinking of raising the plate properly.
