Crossroads of Choice (4)

De'shan's eyes widened.

When he found Fred, he pushed the soldier away, hurriedly ran out and grabbed Fred's crotch.

"I, please. Please save me! I asked these people to... Ouch!

q

A soldier grabbed his clothes from behind.

The soldier bowed his head and said sorry, and then forced the bubbly giant to pass Fred.

Evil and screaming could be heard from behind.

When he remembered Deshan who had escaped Dmitry after revealing that he was a spy during the 4th test, Fred could not accept the situation that had just happened in a dignified manner.

" How did this happen? Was the promise that put Dmitry's honor on the line a lie?

Deshan is a spy.

There was no reason to keep his promise to the spy, but Fred was also a spy, so he was very embarrassed.

said Chris.

"We were going to keep Deshan alive as promised. What if he had buried what he had seen and heard in Dmitry and lived with his mouth shut. Deshan left Dmitry and headed for Adelian. After booking a warp schedule to 'Valhalla' there, I contacted the person who submitted the spy quest through magic communication. From then on, it's what you saw. Dmitry's intelligence guild was keeping a close eye on the spies, and they brought him here as they judged that D'shan had broken his promise.

Fred's eyes twinkled.

Mouth was dry.

He felt a cool feeling at Chris's calm words.

' Dmitry never stood by the spies. I was confident that it didn't matter what variables the spies created, and I must have been ready to put an end to our existence at any time.'

I got goosebumps.

Chris obviously.

He said that he had finished sorting out information about those who passed the enlistment recruitment, and that he was fully prepared for their choices.

At first, I thought it was a consideration for the spies.

Those whose family members are held hostage like themselves will not be able to betray Kronos unless the underlying problem is addressed.

By the way.

Come to think of it, the truth is different.

Being fully prepared according to the choice meant that negative situations were also included, and if he had stolen Dmitry's information, the beings that Chris had bought out might have harmed his family.

Let your thoughts go there. The corners of my eyes trembled.

The fact that Dmitry was more terrifying than I thought gave me complicated emotions.

I was surprised at first.

Fear arose.

I was perplexed and confused as to how to handle this situation.

Then.

I was relieved.

With such thorough work, he believed that his decision to entrust the future to Dmitry was not wrong.

"Fred."

I saw Chris.

Chris looked at Fred, looking into his eyes to see what he was thinking.

"Remember today. That Dmitry is not a paradise as good as being naive."

* * *

When the spies are buzzing about their whereabouts.

Alone in the training ground, there was an existence devoted to training.

pod.

Curly rumble.

The sword split the night sky.

With the aura scattered with sweat drops, Ares showed genuine admiration.

" The answer I was looking for was in Dmitry."

Ares.

He was called a genius of swordsmanship, and after questioning Alexander's method, he made his own way.

Rather than indiscriminate eruptions, an organized aura.

Rather than spreading mana in his body, he tried to find a way to somehow control mana.

The incident in which he defeated Schneider, a member of the Continental Twelve Swords, was proof that his method was correct, but Ares knew that he had not yet found the answer.

decades.

I lived by the sword.

For him, who only thought of the sword until he opened his eyes and closed his eyes, Dmitry's teachings could only be shocking.

'Sura's mind method is the ideal I was looking for. Controlling mana has always been an unsolved problem, and the Sura psychic provides hundreds of pathways to create mana storage spaces and release mana from them. This is by no means a skill that can be completed in one or two years. But how did Roman Dmitry come up with such a perfect theory?'

It was amazing.

Characters like Scott felt mana for three hours, but Ares felt mana as soon as he followed Sura's method and induced it.

only 1 hour.

When he felt that he had accumulated mana minutely but surely, Ares had no choice but to exclaim with exclamation at the thrill that rose from his toes.

I was astonished.

The Sura method was a miracle, and it seemed that many of the things he had imagined could be realized based on it.

the problem is.

'Is it really true that Sura's simbeop is only a low-level martial art?'

chuck.

took the sword

The swordsmanship based on Sura's psychic method was destructive, and I felt that I was taking a step forward after I had been wandering in place recently.

However, it was impossible to accept the saying that this kind of Sura mental method was only of a low level.

I saw a new world just with the Sura mentality, but Chris said there was more to it.

'If what Chris said is true. Roman Dmitry may have already taken an overwhelming position with respect to martial arts. People say they don't understand Roman Dmitry's steps when he publicly reveals the concept of dantian, but like he taught Sura to spies, that may be nothing compared to Roman Dmitry's achievements. Roman Dmitry. What is your true identity? How can you create a system with a high degree of perfection while denying the existing system at the age of less than 30?'

Ares' way.

Although he denied Alexander's teachings, in the end, he had no choice but to base them on Alexander's.

But Roman Dmitry was different.

Roman Dmitry has created a system that even he can only vaguely imagine, which people call a genius, a perfect reality.

Did I say that people see as much as they know?

As Ares, who denied Alexander's method and created a new system, the teaching of Sura's mind method was bound to be even more shocking.

Actually.

Ares was going to get some instruction and leave Dmitry.

Honor as a prosecutor wasn't that important to him.

'Roman Dmitry is writing a new history. A great achievement that will push Alexander to the back of history.'

convinced

Roman Dmitry was different from Alexander.

He was making a perfect system without any loopholes.

so that.

Ares changed his mind.

'As long as I have something to learn. Let's stay with Dmitry for the time being.'

made a decision

Recognizing Roman Dmitry.

I accepted that he had something to learn.

I do not intend to be loyal to Dmitry for the rest of my life, but at least it was worth devoting to Dmitry for now.

But did he expect it?

There was precedent for Chris, who swore allegiance to Roman Dmitry for a similar reason.

Shh.

took the sword

The night air filled

Ares, unpredictable of his own future, turned and headed for the dorm.

* * *

Emperor Kronos.

No, Alexander received the report from the Marquis of Memphis while "possessed".

" All the spies sent to Dmitry have not been contacted. At first, I thought it was a communication problem, but given the report that Dmitry did not have any particular problems, I think we should consider the possibility of apostasy."

The Marquis of Memphis bowed his head.

Above his head, he did not dare to face the angry face of Emperor Cronus.

"You bastards, they all chose Dmitry."

recruiting soldiers.

Kronos sent hundreds of spies.

Most of them did not pass the 4th test, but a few people, including Scott, were named on the pass list.

Now, I thought it was just a matter of time to steal the martial arts.

But no matter how much time passed, there was no return, and the Marquis of Memphis had no choice but to mention apostasy.

It was crazy.

The spies of the Kronos Empire.

Despite the risk of renunciation, he could not believe that he had chosen Dmitry.

Besides.

'The link between the pieces has been broken.'

Fragments that infiltrated Dmitry.

It was not easy to connect with them.

Alexander was confident that even if all the spies failed, he could steal the military power, but the loss of communication between the pieces presented embarrassment.

It wasn't clear if they had apostatized.

But the mere fact that things didn't go as planned could not contain the rage that was boiling over Alexander.

Kronos is an empire.

Because it was different from a normal country, it was given the title of an empire, and people looked up to the Kronos Empire.

land of power.

Rather than succeeding in a country like Cairo, Dmitry, Hector, etc., succeeding in the Kronos Empire is an achievement enough to stand up stiff in any continent.

But recently, the trend has changed.

After losing a series of defeats against Dmitry and paying a huge sum of 500,000 gold as a war reward, people no longer regarded the Kronos Empire as a being with 'overwhelming power'.

A crack occurred.

The precedent that Kronos was not perfect led to the disastrous conclusion of the spies' betrayal.

"Man is an animal of oblivion. Stupid humans do not remember what the Kronos Empire has produced in the repeated history."

Not yet.

It was not the time.

But in the not-too-distant future, the world will have to bear its wrath.

"The Marquis of Memphis."

Yes.

"Destroy all the spies that were put into Dmitry. Summon all those involved with them, and show them clearly what would happen if they betrayed Kronos. There is no room for Kronos to be shaken just because the chicks like bugs leave Kronos. Kronos will always be at the apex of the continent."

"I take orders."

The Marquis of Memphis retreated.

and a few days later.

The Marquis of Memphis, pale-faced, reported that the spies' families had all fled.

gloomy space.

Alexander took a step forward.

When they finally reached their destination, the moonlight coming in through a hole in the ceiling lit up the space around them.

It was the foundation.

Looking at it in its dark red form, Alexander laughed.

"One year ahead. In one year, the millennium will be completed."

long time ago.

When he took over Alexander's body and ascended to the throne while receiving enthusiastic applause from the people.

Alexander wished for immortality.

Because I lived a life I couldn't have in my previous life, I wanted it to last forever, and I thought that only a reigning life, which was boring and not eternal, gave meaning to life.

Alexander accepted black magic.

Living as an immortal, Alexander created a tradition for controlling the descendants of the imperial family.

"The descendants of the imperial family should pray for the revival of the empire through a ceremony to honor the spirits of their ancestors on the day of the coming-of-age ceremony."

Current Emperor Kronos.

So was he.

He was considered to be gifted as an aura swordsman, but at the ceremony of his coming-of-age, he was taken over by his ancestor's marriage, Alexander.

From then on, Emperor Kronos became one of many pieces.

Alexander did so to Emperor Cronus, his father, and his grandfather.

From the time when history records Alexander's death, he has taken possession of those called emperors.

People didn't know the truth.

while the years pass.

Blood and death piled up in this foundation while humans, who can only live for a hundred years, fell into the swamp of oblivion and repeated the mistakes of the past.

Alexander's plan also progressed slowly.

The magical power of darkness has grown stronger, and as the power of the World Tree has rapidly weakened in recent years, the day when the Millennium Plan will be realized is just around the corner.

Roman Dmitry.

Kingdom Union.

It was meaningless.

One year from now, they will face the shocking truth that Alexander, who is called the creator of the aura, has led the Salamander Continent.

"Roman Dmitry. run freely No matter how hard you try, the long-planned future will not change. in the not-too-distant future. I will complete the Millennium Plan with a disaster that will overtake you and destroy Dmitry."

laughed

A wide-smiling face was dyed with madness.

"Look forward to that day."

gurgling.

Magic power arose in the Foundation.

Darkness multiplied.

Suddenly, it engulfed Alexander's existence.

* * *

a few days after that.

Dmitry regained his composure.

Most of the spies' issues were resolved, and Dmitry's enlisted men began training in earnest and established themselves.

around that time.

Three guests visited Dmitry.

The time when the sun has not yet fully risen.

The first visitor to Dmitry was Hoffmann, the head of the Golden Bank.
