Episode 397: Alexander (2)
It was a miserable situation.
The Kingdom of Cairo abandoned its front-line defensive positions and chose to quickly flee in the face of defeated remnants.
There was no other way.
Seeing that everything they had prepared was suddenly collapsing, all of Cairo’s leaders, including Daniel Cairo, had the same mindset and said that they had to step down.
next day.
As soon as the distance from the Cronos Empire army was shortened, he ordered the soldiers to rest and immediately called a meeting.
“Report the situation.”
Daniel Cairo.
He said with a stern face.
Norbert, who was in charge of information, also opened his mouth with a very stern expression.
“… … First, let me tell you about the damage suffered by the troops. Meanwhile, they lost more than 100,000 troops while fending off attacks from the Kronos Empire. We were able to prevent further damage because we had strong defenses, but yesterday, in just one day, half of that number, 50,000 soldiers, died. His Majesty King Daniel. In fact, all-out war is no longer possible. “If we face a similar situation even once more, we will completely lose our ability to fight Kronos.”
It was hopeless.
the problem is.
Norbert’s words were not finished.
“And as a result of research through wizards, we estimate that the magic used by Kronos’ wizard is from the realm of the 9th Circle. The magic that destroyed the capital of Odelia was the 9th Circle. This means that from now on no magic defense will be able to block Kronos’ attacks, and although this is still only a hypothesis, there is one area of concern. The wizard of Kronos called himself ‘Alexandr’. As you all know, in Kronos, Alexandre is a name only allowed to one person.”
“… … Emperor Alexander.”
“you’re right.”
“Hmm.”
Everyone swallowed their groans.
It felt like my thinking circuit had stopped.
Emperor Alexander!
Why on earth is that name mentioned?
Having achieved great achievements as the founder of Ora, he personally issued an order so that no one except himself could use the name of Alexander.
In the past, there were nobles who named their children Alexander in the hopes that they would become great heroes like the emperor, but as the news became known that they were brutally executed by shadows sent by Kronos, those who made that mistake completely disappeared.
blast furnace.
There was a high probability that it was the same person, or a person recognized enough to use that name.
Whatever it was, anxiety was rampant.
Daniel Cairo said.
“The name Alexander is special. If he is the successor to Alexander’s name, he will clearly be a being specially trained to realize the ambitions of the Kronos Empire. The problem is the possibility that they are the same person. Considering the circumstances in which he declared himself to be the coming of Alexander, the possibility that he lived for eons cannot be ignored. Kronos is actually related to black magic, and if Emperor Alexander had mastered ‘magic’, it would be entirely possible to destroy the realm of immortality.”
I swallowed dry saliva.
Even as I spoke, my mouth felt dry.
“If he really is Emperor Alexander. The chances of us winning this war are very slim. The fact that Alexander, who has lived for eons, has entered the realm of the 9th Circle means that he is fully prepared to conquer the continent. Just as Norbert said. All-out war is impossible from now on. “With Cairo’s current power, there is no way to stop the Kronos Empire.”
blast furnace.
There was only one way.
“We are conserving our strength as much as possible and waiting for Roman Dmitry to join. “That is the only command that I, the incompetent king, can give you.”
I thought I had improved a lot during that time.
but.
The opponent was a monster that went beyond the scope of common sense.
* * *
At a time when Cairo was on the run for a long time.
Alexandre, who entered the dark space, confirmed what was happening on the ‘Kronos Southern Front’ beyond the dimension.
Castro and Roman Dmitry.
clashed violently.
Castro awakened the power of darkness and showed tremendous force, but it was completely ineffective against Roman Dmitry.
It was a one-sided match. The 7-star Aura swordsman, Castro, was said to be the best swordsman on the continent.
At most, they were satisfied with blocking one attack, and were consistently pushed back thereafter.
at last.
He died miserably.
At the sight of Castro collapsing, Alexandre was thrilled.
“… … Roman Dmitry. “What kind of being were you in your past life?”
I was impressed.
At first, I thought that even though he was from the same martial arts world as me, he had learned some excellent martial arts in his own way.
It had to be that way.
A name like the Heavenly Demon was far too high, and even though Alexander, who did not know much, confirmed his martial arts skills, he could not infer his true identity.
However, as time passed, the evaluation of Roman Dmitry changed. He was not an ordinary person.
I thought that Roman Dmitry, with his bold actions coupled with his strong military power, might not be someone who had just made a name for himself in martial arts, but might be a big name.
why.
Isn’t there a rumor like that?
In Moorim, there are beings who go beyond human limitations, such as the World’s Top Ten Masters.
I don’t remember the names exactly, but I couldn’t describe the current Roman Dmitry without that.
“It’s so unfair.”
Jealousy arose.
I was angry.
if.
If he had met conditions similar to Roman Dmitry’s previous life, he would not have thought of becoming stronger by borrowing the power of darkness.
He would have conquered the continent with his own strength, and future generations would have remembered Alexander not as a great emperor or the founder of Ora, but as the greatest swordsman.
It was devastating.

Because my birth was miserable.
In a situation that seemed to reveal his reality, Alexander could not suppress his seething sense of inferiority.
‘I wanted to be a warrior.’
dream.
An intense desire comparable to conquering the continent.
Alexander was truly jealous of Roman Dmitry, so he sent Castro away to test his power.
It was the final gateway.
Once he became convinced that he could never be defeated with the aura he created, then he decided to admit defeat and fully accept Roman Dmitri’s methods.
It’s time.
The moment he spoke of was coming.
Before completely turning the world into darkness, Alexander planned to make his own aspirations come true.
“Roman Dmitry. If I turn the Kingdom of Cairo into rubble, you will definitely appear before my eyes. “That will be the starting point for conquering the Salamander Continent, and at the same time, it will be the moment to look into your truth.”
Rumbling.
Darkness arose.
Alexandre was enveloped in darkness, his eyes boiling with desire.
* * *
A series of situations.
Count Bruce, the commander of Kronos, felt embarrassed.
When he saw Alexander giving the order to march like this, he looked at him and showed an uncomfortable expression.
“… … Please give us a full explanation. What is your identity? He has identified himself as Emperor Alexander, but we cannot accept that fact.”
Behind the Empire.
The fact that Alexander was there was something that even nobles like Count Bruce did not know.
That’s why I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.
It wasn’t enough that an unreported 9th Circle wizard appeared, and he announced himself as Emperor Alexander.
It wasn’t common sense.
Neither the fact that Emperor Alexander, who should have died a long time ago, was alive nor the fact that he, who was called the founder of Aura, had reached the level of the 9th Circle made any sense.
It was an obvious question.
In the category of common sense, Alexander coldly looked down at Count Bruce.
“What explanation?”
“Of course… … .”
“I am Emperor Alexander. Just because I use a name that is unique in the world, you must accept my existence. Do not judge my existence by the passage of time. “From the time I was called the founder of Aura until now, the Kronos Empire has existed under my rule, behind the scenes, without you knowing.”
I was speechless.
Alexander.
He’s behind Kronos.
I couldn’t believe it.
Alexandre frowned at the sight of him not willingly showing courtesy to the emperor.
“Tsk tsk.”
puck.
Blood splattered.
When he clicked his tongue, Count Bruce’s head exploded.
The eyes of the soldiers around him widened.
Even though their commander was dead, they could not hastily express their anger.
“You bastard. How dare you face me and not accept me? Haven’t you also been satisfied so far? My rule, the powerful power given by the name Kronos. In that case, even if it was outside the scope of common sense, I should have knelt down and bowed my head in the name of Alexander.”
I looked away.
Everyone froze.
Alexander pointed to one of them.
“From now on, you will be the commander.”
“… … Ah, I understand.”
“and.”
Crumbling.
Magic power arose.
Looking around at the people, Alexandre showed a cold look in his eyes.
“Those who disagree with me, please come forward. If everyone accepted my existence… … .”
Twitch.
I laughed.
“Pick up your weapons right now and move forward, destroying the Kingdom of Cairo.”
* * *
It was truly a disaster.
After destroying the front line defense position.
Kronos continued to push forward, and Cairo was helplessly pushed back without even being able to resist in any way.
gave up the fight.
The fortresses in Cairo that were supposed to be guarded by soldiers were empty, and sometimes magic bombs were installed to trap the Kronos Empire forces.
But it meant nothing.
Before the magic bomb could react, the moment Alexandre raised his finger, the magic bomb lost its power and was destroyed.
Passs.
Wizard.
In their world, the differences between circles are absolute.
The area of the 9th Circle was an untouchable world, and with Alexander alone, the tide was completely turned.
Several days passed.
When they reached a fortress, the Kronos Empire discovered a sight different from before.
“Mr. Alexander. It looks like Cairo is going to stage a sit-in. We confirmed that there are troops inside the fortress, and we also confirmed that Daniel Cairo is on the walls. Please give orders.”
New commander.
Gordon, Count Bruce’s adjutant, seemed to completely accept Alexander’s presence.
If his existence is true.
I had to follow.
Alexander had dominated the imperial family for a long time, and the moment he caught the eye, his path to success was virtually guaranteed.
Above all, Alexander’s power was needed to take down the fortress.
Kronos’s power alone is enough to win, but things will be easier if Alexandre helps.
however.
Alexandre looked at the castle wall and smiled.
“You showed up.”
“… … “What is that?”
“Stupid guy. You can’t even tell by looking at it. The reason why Cairo, who had completely given up on his resistance and fled after the defeat on the Western Front, suddenly chose to stage a sit-in. It means they are ready to fight now.”
Moment.
Gordon reacted in surprise.
I realized what Alexandre was saying.
“okay. Roman Dmitry must have joined.”
* * *
It was as expected.
Roman Dmitry.
He joined Cairo.
The original plan was to destroy Kronos’ base, but things would have been different if Alexander appeared in the Kingdom of Cairo.
Alexander is the background to all darkness.
Because dealing with him could bring down Kronos, Roman Dmitry chose to change the original plan.
and.
I knew that Cairo alone could not stop it.
Alexander’s demonstration of force to fight in the Kingdom of Cairo touched Roman Dmitry’s heart.
It was then.
Squeak.
A situation where the two sides face off.
The gate was opened.
As Roman Dmitri walked out alone, the soldiers of the Kronos Empire reacted with murmurs.
I walked slowly.
I raised my voice without stopping walking.
“Alexandr. “I guess the reason you appeared here was to put a definite end to it.”
Meantime.
Roman Dmitry knew of Alexander’s existence.
Although we never met in person, Alexandre was involved in everything that happened around the continent.
So I had a feeling that we would meet someday.
If Alexander’s goal was to conquer the continent, he had no choice but to compete with himself, who had to live a reigning life.
That day.
It was today.
Upon hearing the report that Alexander had appeared, Roman Dmitry knew what to do from now on.
I drew my sword.
Looking at the enemies who were on guard, I gradually increased my walking speed.
“So today, I will end this here and now.”
Pot.
Crumbling.
Rushed towards the enemies.
And that moment.
“Attack!”
“Follow Roman Dmitry!”
Soldiers appearing from all directions.
They waved the flags of Cairo and Umberto, and followed Roman Dmitry, as if they had been waiting, and let out angry shouts.
Finally.
It was the moment of decisive battle.
