The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life

Chapter 318 Prisoner of War (3)

This case.

It was not a problem that one aristocrat could solve.

In a situation that could directly lead to a war with Dmitri, Count Munez immediately connected magic communication to the Marquis of Memphis.

[…] … This is the current situation. I tried to deny the existence of prisoners of war as much as possible, but judging from the statement that I have already secured evidence, it seems impossible. Things are not looking good. According to Roman Dmitri’s actions, he might really break down the armistice negotiations and launch an attack.]

It was an absurd report.

Kronos Empire.

It is a great power recognized by all.

Just a few years ago, Kronos did not dare to protest against any injustice, but Roman Dmitri threatened to break off the truce negotiations first.

The world has changed.

The series of defeats lowered Cronus’ status to the bottom and he fell into a situation like this.

The Marquis of Memphis showed an uncomfortable planting.

‘How dare you cross the border without warning. According to the laws of the Cronus Empire, it would be an empire-like response to punish horribly.’

but.

It couldn’t be.

Emperor Cronus went to rest.

In place of the vacancy, full authority of the chain of command was entrusted to the Marquis of Memphis, but the Marquis of Memphis could not handle everything at will.

At their last meeting, Emperor Cronus ordered foreign affairs to be handled with a thoroughly defensive attitude for the next year.

Knowing what that meant, a war with Dmitri was something Kronos didn’t like.

‘Chronos is now preparing for the future one year from now. You can’t mess with your plans because you can’t stand the anger of the moment. The problem is if we step back even on this one. Roman Dmitri, that cheeky guy’s nose will pierce the sky.’

I didn’t like it.

signing a truce.

There was a lot of talk around.

The Marquis of Memphis sees people clamoring that Kronos’ prestige has fallen, and the Marquis’ stomach boils.

endured

With a bright future, I was able to suppress my anger now.

“Count Munez. His Majesty the Emperor Cronus has now entered rest. But what would happen if His Majesty’s rest was disturbed by a dispute with Dmitri?”

[…] … I’m sorry.]

“You don’t have anything to apologize for. I just wish I could finish this problem properly. All of Dmitri’s captives are being used for labor by nobles from the ‘Eastern Region’, so if you end the situation with their deviation, Dmitri’s anger will be suppressed.”

beyond the screen.

Count Munez’s pupils wavered.

Reporting to the superiors, he thought that the Cronus Empire would choose war without giving away prisoners.

eastern nobility.

They were just following orders from their superiors.

The nobles, including Baron McHeaton, mobilized the prisoners for labor as ordered and believed that the Cronus Empire would take responsibility for it.

It really wasn’t.

It occurred to me that making an individual shoulder the work ordered by the country might also throw away Count Munez, depending on the situation.

No answer came immediately.

OK.

“Count Munez. don’t make it complicated Isn’t that the way the world is supposed to be?”

I swallowed disgust.

Dmitri went to war to save hundreds of prisoners, but the Kronos Empire told them to abandon those loyal to the empire without regret.

Identity confusion arose.

We, like Dmitri, wanted to shout that the state should not shoulder the responsibility, but something completely different came out of his mouth.

[I will follow orders.]

The history of Kronos.

Made with blood and corpses.

In that brutal history, Count Munez wanted to survive as a victor.

* * *

It was a unilateral order.

Baron McHeaton, who cut off communication with Count Munez, nervously threw his magic communicator to the floor.

Kwajik!

“These bastards! what?! In order not to disturb the Emperor’s rest, treat this prisoner of war issue as a personal deviation of the eastern nobles? This means that I should just die to Roman Dmitri!”

The magic communicator was horribly broken.

Even though the expensive items had been shattered, it didn’t matter too much to Baron McHheaton now.

Roman Dmitry.

His actions on the battlefield are terrifying.

There was absolutely no law to spare those who were classified as enemies, and even the great swordsmen representing Cronus met Roman Dmitri and were all killed.

But to bear the wrath of such a monster?

In addition, I heard shocking words that Count Munez sent a messenger to talk, but he immediately blew his head off.

It was dark.

My mouth was dry.

First of all, I urgently called in Jason to solve the problem.

“Jason. Is there any way to solve this problem?”

“… It seems a bit difficult this time. Now that the Kronos Empire has decided on the individual deviations of the eastern nobles, the only way we can survive is to ask for mercy from Roman Dmitri. If you don’t obey the order, your head will be blown off with a treason sword. If you do, Roman Dmitri will try to kill us. If so, you should obediently bring the prisoners as requested and temper your anger as much as possible.”

“damn!”

distorted his expression.

why.

Are you saying you have to take all the responsibility?

He hurriedly issued an order as Jason had said, forgetting how excited he was when he called the prisoners free manpower.

“Bring all the prisoners without exception right now.”

“All right.”

10 minutes later.

Prisoners were brought.

Thrown to the ground, the captives looked up at Baron McHeatten’s face with terrified faces.

They were unaware of the current situation.

Most of those who were brought outside were usually headed for the torture chamber, so their faces showed fear of pain.

They gritted their teeth.

I couldn’t resist much with my body that was weak from eating and abused, but I didn’t want to look down on it until the moment I died.

With Carol’s case.

Everyone fell for evil.

Watching them widen their eyes, Baron McHeatten shook his head.

“In this state, it only arouses the wrath of Roman Dmitri. Take these guys right now and wash them all!”

The faces of the prisoners were too gruesome.

By order of the Baron.

The soldiers dragged the prisoners back.

The problem was not only that.

It’s enough to wash a dirty look, but it was different in the case of people who were ‘tortured’ like Carol.

They looked like they were about to die.

In particular, it was very obvious how Roman Dmitri would react to the skin with necrosis and the scars that made him frown.

I chewed my nails carefully.

After thinking for a while, Jason said in a calm voice.

“… Why don’t you hide the tortured guys secretly? As for the other captives, I will do my best to silence them. Once the hangover is over, even Roman Dmitri won’t be able to use his hands.”

“I heard Count Munez said there is evidence.”

“Can you believe that? We thoroughly concealed the existence of the captives. My tail was trampled on by magic communications, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t have a complete list of prisoners. Trust me.”

“Kuhm.”

I swallowed the silence.

It was the only way.

For now, as Jason said, it was important to survive right away.

“i get it. Exclude this guy and those in poor condition from the list of prisoners.”

* * *

Two hours later.

As promised, the eastern nobility colonized the captives.

in front of the defensive positions.

Baron McHeaton swallowed his fear at the appearance of enemies lined up, led by Roman Dmitri, and acted as a representative.

“… All of Dmitri’s prisoners have been brought. First of all, I would like to sincerely apologize for hiding the existence of POWs. I didn’t mean to do that from the beginning. When the armistice was signed, I tried to free Dmitri’s prisoners, but the situation got entangled and I missed the opportunity to tell them about their existence.”

right in front of your eyes.

There was Roman Dmitry.

His voice kept trembling.

Roman Dmitri’s eyes looking at him were so frightening that he doubted whether they were the same person.

“This is entirely a personal mistake. I could have solved the problem if I had disclosed the existence of prisoners of war even belatedly, but I was horrified to hear that the armistice negotiations had already been concluded. We misunderstood that the difficult truce negotiations might be overturned because of our mistake. Thoughts were short. So please punish us and reconsider your relationship with the Kronos Empire. Kronos wants peace.”

It was funny.

A noble of the Kronos Empire.

He spoke of peace with other countries.

In any country, the people famous for their mischief were the nobles of Cronus, who could spit out any word to survive in a dangerous situation.

It was a really painful time.

Baron McHeaton took the lead because he had the most prisoners, but he wanted to turn around and run away.

however.

The water has already spilled.

For the future, I knew that I could survive as a person in power only if I handled this matter well.

“I’m really sorry.”

An apology that has been spit out several times.

Little by little, I felt relieved.

I thought I might accept an apology for the other person’s calm reaction.

It was then.

“What did I say?”

“… yes?”

“I must have warned you not to leave out a single one.”

Moment.

My heart sank.

The moment you raise your head in bewilderment and try to make an excuse.

Jab-!

A huge shock hit his face.

* * *

There was no bird to dry.

Roman Dmitry grabbed his opponent by the collar to keep him from falling, then dragged him forward and slapped him on the cheek several times.

Damn!

Squeak clatter!

Blood spattered.

teeth flew out

At first, he waved his hands and tried to make excuses, but after being beaten several times, his pupils dilated.

I couldn’t even fall to the floor. Hanging on to the hand that grabbed my collar, I forcibly gave up my face.

Damn!

face turned

When he removed his palm, thick blood came out.

The atmosphere turned chilly.

here now

It is Kronos’ territory.

The foremost defensive position was right in front of it, and Cronus’ soldiers were ready to attack at any time on the top of the wall.

In addition, escort troops, including Jason, were also following.

Even though they could attack Roman Dmitri at any time if they wanted to, they looked at the situation blankly with bewildered faces.

especially.

Jason’s fear increased.

He didn’t even dare to draw his sword, even though his master was dying right in front of his nose.

‘… If I pull out the sword, I will die on the spot.’

Beyond Roman Dmitry.

There were beings watching them.

Dmitri’s Flash Called Dmitri’s demons, they were wary of their surroundings with cold eyes.

and.

Above all, he did not have the confidence to subdue Roman Dmitri.

Clearly, he showed no room for violence against Roman Dmitri despite his defenselessness.

Maybe it was because I was terrified that I didn’t know what to think.

What is certain is that he, as a mere knight, could not stand against the existence that invaded Cronus’ territory and even used violence.

He averted his gaze.

I couldn’t bear to look at the terrible sight.

Damn!

power was released

Roman Dmitry, looking limp, looked at Count Munez atop the castle wall, clutching his collar.

“The reason I gave you two hours is not to receive an apology like this. It was for the safety of the prisoners. I have given you a chance to reverse the situation, as I wish my people a safe return. But if you don’t follow my orders. Why should I let you live?”

as soon as the words are finished.

He broke off Baron McHeatten’s head.

Duduk.

head turned

Without a scream, Baron McHeatten’s body collapsed as it were.

People rolled their eyes.

I got goosebumps.

To kill the nobles of Cronus openly like this.

Even when captives were brought, the people of Cronus believed that problems could be resolved peacefully.

And that.

“What are you doing? Don’t bring my people.”

It was such a big misunderstanding.
