Episode 289: People heading to Dmitry (2)
Palak.
I handed over the documents.
As he read the content that densely appealed to him, Knight Commander Jonathan reacted with quite a bit of embarrassment.
“So, this means that a swordsman of this caliber applied as an ordinary soldier, not as a member of the Knights Templar?”
“yes. I took into account the fact that the level of recruitment of private soldiers last year was higher than expected, but I did not expect that such people would flock to the announcement that ‘private soldiers’ were being recruited. As you know, no matter how much you receive, isn’t it far less than what it would be to belong to a noble family?”
The person at the reception desk raised his voice.
It was a valid statement.
Although Dmitry pays higher wages than other families, this recruitment was carried out with the sole purpose of accepting private soldiers.
However, looking at the contents of the document, people whose names were completely unrelated to the purpose were listed.
[Favir]
-I am 39 years old this year. He served as a member of the ‘Knights’ in the prestigious Umberto family, and is currently able to manifest the aura of the three stars. He was entrusted with many missions that required courtesy and skill, such as guarding nobles, and I think the fact that he took on the position of vice-division commander right before he quit the knighthood is an example of my commanding ability. From the war I experienced… … And so on, when the Dmitri family recently declared war on the Kronos Empire, he even announced his intention to voluntarily participate in the war.
It was one of the men talking at the inn.
Fabir explained in detail who he was and his strengths and experience in order to pass the document screening.
In fact, it was a free pass. When a person of this caliber said he would apply to be a ‘private soldier’, there was no reason to refuse unless he was crazy.
the problem is.
[Vice leader of a large mercenary group]
[Special Mercenary]
[article]
[Aura Inspection]
Besides Fabir.
There were various specifications.
It was a moment when I felt a sense of the other world.
Even when Knight Commander Jonathan pledged allegiance to Dmitri, Dmitry’s reputation was not so good that his colleagues asked why he was going to Dmitri.
But now the situation has completely reversed.
Just looking at the specifications of those who expressed their intention to participate in writing proved their changed status, and above all, they have recently been constantly receiving requests from former colleagues.
“My son awakened his aura this time… … “Can you put me in the Dmitry Knights?”
“Jonathan. how have you been doing? No, I just wanted to ask how you are. Yes, I had a really hard time training with you in the past… … That’s why I’m saying this, is there a place for me in Dmitri’s Knights?”
“I’ll tell you straight. “For the sake of old times, please take me with you.”
their contact.
People who asked how I was at first ended the conversation by asking Dmitri to accept me.
It wasn’t that the people I contacted were lacking in qualifications.
It was clear that the reason why they, who were called Ora prosecutors in their own way, were so hung up on Dmitry was because of the reasonable compensation and the recently spread rumors.
‘In the war against Kronos, Chris and Kevin defeated aura swordsmen stronger than themselves. At that time, as rumors spread that Dmitry was using a special technique, the interest of aura swordsmen toward Dmitri increased explosively. Rumor has it that he may have skills beyond Aleksandr. For those who apply to Dmitry, the money they receive is not important.’
I understand.
Technique taught by Roman Dmitry.
As someone who learned it, Dmitry’s swordsmanship was worthy of this much attention.
I continued flipping through the documents.
I checked the basic details, and at that moment, Knight Commander Jonathan reacted in surprise.
“… … “Why is this person here?”
In the documents.
[Fred]
-Commander of the Knights of the Memphis Family, Kronos Empire
Just one career.
The person who surprised Knight Commander Jonathan was the very Robin who had attracted people’s attention in Adelian.
* * *
It was a hectic day.
The Marquis of Memphis, who had been handling the influx of work since the end of the war, distorted his expression when he heard the news about Dmitri.
“Stupid guys. “Once you win, everything goes to Dmitri.”
recent.
Recruiting private soldiers for the Dmitry family was a hot potato.
Not only did it cause a sensation within Dmitry, but it also caused an uproar as people from each country expressed their intention to take the test.
The nobles worked hard to protect their family’s swordsmen.
People who would normally struggle to give even 1 less silver voluntarily tried to win over the hearts of the prosecutors by offering to give 1 more gold.
It was absurd.
In the Memphis family, this was something that could never happen.
“How can people be so stupid? Odelia’s disappearance was not because of the Kronos Empire’s change of heart and betrayal, but because Odelia tried to live off a useless subject. Those who are capable and can serve the empire will always remain winners, as the history of the continent proves.”
The perspectives were different.
People said that they could no longer trust Kronos due to Odelia’s disappearance, but they thought it was right for Odelia, who had only brought the ‘pattern’ of kingdom unity in the first place, to be abandoned like that.
If Odelia had sought the consent of Umberto, Frank, and Redford to cooperate as one large power, the Kronos Empire would have taken advantage of their existence and talked about the future.
however.
Odelia, what can you do with just one thing?
They were surrounded by a coalition of kingdoms, which only resulted in the dispersion of power, and the Kronos Empire decided that it would be more efficient to occupy their territory and use it as a bridgehead for continental conquest.
In the end, it was a failure, but I didn’t really understand the words of those who criticized that choice.
at last.
Kronos will conquer the continent.
The Marquis of Memphis believed in the long history of the empire.
‘His Majesty the Emperor has given us notice of about a year’s time. After that, the conquest of the continent will begin again. For now, I have chosen to take a step back due to complicated issues, but from the time Kronos reveals his full power, no matter what kind of power Dmitri has, he will not be able to turn the situation around.’

abyss.
Demons lived there.
The war with Dmitri had only revealed a part of it.
It was then.
smart.
“Can I come in?”
“come in.”
He was a knight of the Memphis family.
He carefully opened the door and showed a strangely uncomfortable expression.
“It’s no different, Knight Commander Fred has not been to work for a week.”
“That faithful Fred? Something must happen. “Send someone to see what’s going on with Fred.”
“That’s actually… … Big. I don’t know how to say this. A few days ago, someone was already sent to Knight Commander Fred’s house. But there was no one. “I did not report it right away because I thought I might have personal business, but today I confirmed that Captain Fred Knight used the warp gate with his family.”
Stand tall.
“what?”
Action stopped.
The Marquis of Memphis’ expression gradually hardened, and he looked at the knight’s face.
said the knight.
“And the final destination of the warp gate was ‘Cortas.’”
Cortas.
A land occupied by Roman Dmitry.
Or, a place with a warp gate that allows you to go directly to the east.
The Marquis of Memphis, who did not understand the meaning at first, soon showed an expression colored with astonishment.
“Are you really trying to tell me that Fred, the leader of the Memphis family’s knights, ran away to Dmitry?!”
That’s true.
This was something the Marquis of Memphis could not accept.
* * *
A series of situations.
It was reported to Emperor Kronos.
Odelia’s disappearance and Baron Charlton’s death created a bigger rift than expected.
“… … This is the current situation. If things continue like this, we cannot prevent the outflow of talent from the empire.”
The Marquis of Memphis said angrily.
Fred’s betrayal.
I wanted to tear it to pieces right away.
He used to make fun of people who lost their family knights, calling them stupid, but he never imagined that his knight commander would choose to run away at night.
The Marquis of Memphis has had a really hectic day recently.
I had no idea something like this would happen while I was going through such a confusing time that I couldn’t even meet Knight Commander Fred.
Emperor Kronos said.
“It’s fun.”
I laughed.
Alexander’s ritual.
He was currently in a state of possession, and he reacted with genuine amusement to the huge uproar caused by Roman Dmitry.
A series of situations.
It didn’t happen simply because they destroyed Odelia and killed Baron Charlton.
Just one defeat.
As the Kronos Empire suffered its first defeat in history, people came to realize that the Kronos Empire was not invincible either.
Then there was no reason to blindly follow the Kronos Empire.
The reason he cried out for loyalty even though he knew he might be abandoned by the Kronos Empire at any time was not because he was so loyal to the empire, but because he had no other option.
Dmitry.
The next best solution was given.
Against Kronos, he proved that he could win.
“Order the Royal Knights. From now on, those who commit treasonous acts, regardless of their social status, must be exterminated. Even though they were born in the Kronos Empire, they are idiots who risk their lives to follow Dmitri. Such beings only disrupt Kronos’ discipline. “They are not necessary for the future of Kronos.”
“I will follow your orders.”
The Marquis of Memphis retreated.
At his own command.
A bloody wind will blow in Kronos.
As always, the most powerful means to control Kronos was fear.
‘Roman Dmitry. He tells his soldiers about Dmitri’s special skills.’
My interest was piqued.
Alexander is the founder of Aura.
Although he gave up midway and switched to becoming a wizard, he was curious about how great a martial arts skill Roman Dmitry was using.
The power you create will never be lacking.
As a pioneer, he wanted to compare how different the power he discovered was from real martial arts.
Maybe it is.
Maybe it was an inferiority complex.
Regardless of my relationship with Dmitri, I wanted to be proven that the power I created on my own was also a great achievement.
so that.
He sent pieces of himself like Emperor Kronos.
If they pass.
Through possession, you will be able to experience martial arts firsthand.

Recruiting Dmitry’s private army.
The number of people who applied reached as many as 100,000.
Considering they were all old enough to hold a sword and fight, this was truly an incredible feat.
Even within Dmitry, there was an admiring response.
I knew that Roman Dmitry’s status was great, but I had no idea that a single announcement would produce results that would attract 100,000 people.
the problem is.
There were too many people to test.
In a situation where tens of thousands of people remained after the initial screening, Lucas and other people from Hao Moon gathered together and conducted a simple qualification test and identity investigation.
If there is even the slightest error with the information you entered, you will be disqualified.
And using previously conducted methods, such as the courage test, we verified through various methods whether Dmitri was eligible to take the test.
This alone took a considerable amount of time.
Success or failure was not determined solely by force.
Those with weak will failed to perform well, and after a test lasting 15 days, the list for the third test was finalized.
On the day of the test.
Five thousand participants who had survived previous tests flocked to the event.
Roman Dmitry announced that he would select only 500 of them, and that the remaining people would be given the opportunity to join Dmitry’s army, even if they were not private soldiers.
Perhaps that’s why everyone seemed to be on guard.
Even before, the atmosphere of competition was weak, but from now on, everyone around me was a competitor.
It was then.
“It’s Chris.”
“Dmitry’s flash!”
A group of people appeared, receiving attention from people.
At their head was a familiar figure: Chris crossed the crowd and stood in front of everyone.
Chris said.
“Now I will explain the third test method. The test method is simple. There are your seniors behind me. They are the ones who passed the test just like you, swore allegiance to their lord, and have done great things for Dmitri so far. “You will spar with one of the seniors behind me in the order in which your name is called.”
Couplet.
People’s gaze changed sharply.
The people lined up behind Chris included some whose faces were known, like Kevin, and some who were not.
“Winning is not necessarily a condition for passing the third test. Those who win will definitely move on to the final test, but even if they lose, if they show a meaningful performance, they will pass.”
Challengers.
They were mostly not nervous.
Since there were many beings who had made a name for themselves, they believed that they could sufficiently win against Dmitry’s private army. It was a funny situation. Chris smiled and placed his hand on the sword hanging at his waist.
“And I can also be nominated as a sparring partner. No further explanation is needed. From now on, we will proceed with the third test.”
The tension rose.
Finally.
“First participant, Fabir.”
The test has begun.
