Episode 404 Conquest of the Continent (3)
Count Fabius walked naturally.
There was no one to tell him to come in or anyone to greet him, but he pulled out a chair from an empty seat and sat down, as if he was going in and out of Marge’s own home.
People’s eyes followed the series of processes.
Count Fabius leaned back in his chair, raised his head arrogantly, and spoke bluntly.
“Why do you all look at me like that?”
“… … Count Fabius. This is a place to discuss the future of Valhalla. “Not only did we not invite Count Fabius, but we don’t know what could happen if he carelessly sets foot in another country during wartime.”
It was Count Snowdin.
Despite the threatening remarks he made, Count Fabius just tiptoed his toes and was not very shaken.
“Yes, yes. Do you think I don’t even know such an obvious fact? I was definitely invited and attended this event. The 29 families of Valhalla, led by Baron Ayrne, expressed their desire to have a serious discussion with Dmitry about this issue. Isn’t that right, Baron Eirne?”
“you’re right.”
“Look. “Well, I feel a little uncomfortable when you look at people like that without even knowing the whole story.”
a few days ago.
A change occurred within Valhalla.
The identity of Emperor Alexander gave them a huge shock, and the nobles who had doubts about the alliance between Valhalla and Kronos came together.
The focal point was Baron Ayrne.
After he formed an alliance of 29 families, he contacted Dmitri directly and arranged a surprise event, inviting Count Fabius.
The foundation of Valhalla.
No matter how much it changed over time, nobles with warrior blood could not tolerate the current situation.
Count Snowdin showed his discomfort.
It was an intentionally cutting remark, but I couldn’t refuse conversation outright in this situation.
“All right. So what’s the point?”
“I wanted to ask how each other was doing and have a quick chat, but you’re really impatient. great. Let me get straight to the point. As you know, the identity of ‘Emperor Alexander’ was revealed through this war. The ghost of the past, who should have died a long time ago, is still alive, and he has committed many evil deeds through the Kronos Empire. By the way. According to what my lord confirmed in the southern tomb, the former emperors, Stern Walhalla and Duke Vieto, had a deep connection with Kronos… … .”
“That’s not true. There is no such thing in the southern tombs, and we are not associated with Kronos.”
I stopped talking.
Count Fabius laughed heartily.
The sea I expected.
The people of Valhalla are very proud of themselves as an empire, so if they accept the fact that they are Kronos’ servants, a huge riot will break out.
Naturally, people like Count Snowdin, who was currently leading the alliance with Kronos, had a high chance of being captured alive and burned.
That’s why the conversation was cut off before anyone could say anything more, and Count Fabius continued talking with a very amused smile.
“I understand. Even I can’t believe that there is such an ugly truth behind a great country like the Valhalla Empire. Actually, this problem is very simple to solve. Why haven’t you made the material in the Southern Tomb public? Wouldn’t it have been possible to dispel all doubts if the data, which is physically indestructible and can never be modified, was made public? Above all, when my lord executed the Emperor of Valhalla, I understand your anger at the situation, but why did you not make any move in Valhalla to confirm the truth?”
“We have no reason to explain such bullshit.”
“That’s why this Sadal is born. Historically, the relationship between Valhalla and Kronos is questionable. People call the two empires the two great mountain ranges of the continent and express them as obstacles that hinder each other’s goals, but if you look closely at history, the truth is different. Just as my lord was attacked by Kronos on his way back from the Valhalla festival, and just as when Valhalla declared war against Dmitry, Kronos raised his troops as if he had been waiting. “The two empires showed common sense when it was really necessary.”
“but… … .”
“Hello, Count Snowdin. Don’t you know very well that what I’m saying now is not just about one or two things that happened recently? This has been repeated throughout history. And in a situation like now where Emperor Alexander’s identity has been revealed… … .”
The atmosphere changed completely.
He glanced at his opponent sharply.
Count Fabius leaned forward and made eye contact with Count Snowdin, as if he was peering into his mind.
“How on earth should we accept Valhalla’s actions in helping Kronos?”
* * *
It was an embarrassing situation.
Moment.
Count Snowdin had a hunch.
This was a trap.
If he said anything wrong, he would be a traitor who sold out his country, and the matter was too complicated to punish Count Fabius.
29 families that formed an alliance led by Baron Ayrne. Their presence prevented the power of Valhalla from being mobilized.
If they are suppressed by force, it is possible to wipe them out, but if you mess with a force that relies on the public sentiment, problems will arise.
furthermore.
‘Dmitry’s demon.’
Kevin’s presence caught my eye.
Kevin maintained his position behind Count Fabius, and as the atmosphere became hostile, he looked around with calm eyes.
As if he was trying to figure out how many enemies he had to deal with.
Even though they were in the middle of Valhalla, Fabius and Kevin behaved like humans who had completely lost their fear.
Their appearance was not pretentious.
What Fabius did.
Rumor has it that Kevin recently dealt with Ares.
The achievements accumulated around Dmitry suppressed Count Snowdin’s anger.
I held back.
Now was the time to take a step back.
“… … All of that is speculation. If there were situations that led to misunderstanding, there is no other way to explain it than that it was a coincidence. And the materials recorded in the southern tombs cannot be released without permission. It’s not that we don’t want to explain, it’s a problem that cannot be explained. In fact, if you ask us about the intention behind the war, we cannot help but feel frustrated. The Emperor of Valhalla is dead. “No matter what the truth is, isn’t revenge a very natural choice as a subject?”
An excuse within common sense.
It was as expected.
Count Fabius chuckled.
From the moment he took even a single step back, the initiative in this war of words was his.
“I understand. The lord was also a bit extreme. He should have gone through a process of persuasion and killed the Emperor of Valhalla, but he executed him right away as soon as he found out the truth. “This will be done by gradually resolving each other’s misunderstandings, and for now, shouldn’t we solve the problem at hand?”
It was an exquisite way of speaking.
In an expression that was said to be radical, killing the Emperor of Valhalla seemed like nothing.
“I believe in Valhalla. I will trust Count Snowdin. I believe that Alexander was not involved in the history of Valhalla, and that the problem arose when Duke Vieto arbitrarily colluded with Kronos. Since Valhalla did not know the truth, he had no choice but to start a war. So, just watch closely from now on. Now that it has been revealed that the Kronos Empire is a group of evil, wouldn’t it be a priority to get rid of them? I won’t ask you to help with the war. Until we resolve our misunderstanding, please step aside so that we do not misunderstand Valhalla.”

I laughed.
Typical strong and weak.
Count Fabius felt pleasure at the sight of the frightened weakling.
“If you show sympathy for Kronos. “At that time, I can’t help but think that Valhalla is related to Kronos and Emperor Alexander.”
* * *
The conversation has ended.
Count Snowdin nodded with a miserable face.
Logic was completely dominated, and in order to overcome the crisis in front of us, we had no choice but to accept Fabius’ proposal.
came out
Kevin walked after him and asked Count Fabius.
“I don’t really understand. It is clear that Count Snowdin has some kind of deal with Kronos. “We actually have evidence, so why aren’t we dealing with him?”
It was an innocent question.
This time to Valhalla.
Thinking that a battle might break out, Kevin was mentally preparing for a situation where he would face enemies.
However, the atmosphere was smoother than expected.
Once Count Fabius took the initiative, Count Snowdin just nodded with an obedient face and did not show any hostility.
Count Fabius said.
“Hey Kevin. Work has priorities. What’s important to Dmitri now is an all-out war against Kronos, and after achieving his goal, dealing with the isolated Valhalla alone is not a problem. That’s why shackles were placed on Valhalla’s ankles. Because of today’s events, Valhalla cannot be moved carelessly. The reason I visited through Baron Ayrne was to form another force to check Count Snowdin’s power. In order for Valhalla to make the decision to continue the war from now on, it will have to deal with not only external but also internal opposition.”
Valhalla.
They were divided into two.
Like Cairo, a power system that has lost its center will not be able to move toward a single goal.
“Even if Baron Ayrne betrays Dmitri, or even if Count Snowdin launches a civil war and takes complete control of Valhalla. There is nothing bad about it for us. They will once again gnaw away at the inside to unify the system of power, and then they intend to ignite the public sentiment of Valhalla. In that case, the enemy they will be dealing with is not Dmitri and the Kingdom Alliance, but the angry people of Valhalla.”
The reason why Baron Ayrne moved.
It originated from Hao Wen.
They spread rumors that stimulated public sentiment, and Baron Ayrne, who gained strength from public sentiment, formed a power.
Every situation.
It was planned.
As soon as he realized that Alexander’s identity could be used as a weapon, Roman Dmitry moved people to quickly destroy Valhalla from the inside.
And Hao Wen and Count Fabius perfectly brought Roman Dmitry’s picture to life.
Even if it was intended, actually producing it was a different matter.
Kevin was once again impressed.
“… … That’s the intention. Incredible.”
actually.
Kevin did not like Count Fabius.
With his blind loyalty to Roman Dmitri, he could not trust the bat-like man who was once loyal to Marquis Benedict.
People have a difficult time.
Thinking that he could betray twice at any time, he was not pleased with the situation where Count Fabius was entrusted with an important mission.
but.
As time passed, my thoughts changed.
‘Dmitry will become an empire in the future. In order to manage a huge land mass, a person like Count Fabius will also be needed.’
I admitted it.
Count Fabius.
He was definitely the person Dmitry needed.
* * *
It was an instant for the tide to change.
The next morning.
The Valhalla Empire officially announced its position.
“Alexandr is clearly evil. We have decided that we cannot sympathize with the Kronos Empire, and will take a step back until the truth is confirmed. If it is revealed that the leaders of Kronos were directly related to and sympathized with Alexander. The Valhalla Empire will define Kronos as the enemy of humanity.”
It was the right response.
It was a remark that calmed the angry people of Valhalla, and thanks to this, Hector’s kingdom was able to overcome the crisis.
That wasn’t all.
That time.
Frank and Redford cleared out the mob in earnest.
When Alexander was alive, the unknown power they used was powerful, but when they lost power and withered away, it was not difficult to sort out the situation.
Kronos, Valhalla, and the riots of the lawless zone. Among them, two problems that had put the kingdom union in crisis were resolved.
The alliance of kingdoms was now able to focus on the Kronos Empire, and the army led by Roman Dmitry advanced to ruin.
At the forefront.
There was Hermann.
Hermann walked without hesitation within reach of the arrow and risked his life to prove his worth.
“I am Herman, a soldier of the Kronos Empire. The war is already over. Valhalla has given up its alliance with Kronos, and the entire coalition of kingdoms is gathering troops to take down the Kronos Empire. Why on earth are you fighting for Kronos? Some people may call me a traitor for standing here on behalf of Dmitry, but I do not consider my actions a traitor. The authorities of the Kronos Empire hid the existence of Alexandre and deceived the innocent people, and although we had not committed any wrongdoing, we were classified as enemies of humanity and were in danger of death. It is not simply a matter of sharing the country’s risks. As for Kronos. This country is clearly in the wrong, and if you truly care about this country, you should correct it to move in the right direction. And only Roman Dmitry can do that. “Dmitry’s history of basing his decisions on accurate laws, rather than simply judging all issues with black and white logic, is what brought me to this position.”
Hermann’s remarks were exquisite.
After making him accept the hopeless reality, he was relieved of his guilt about betraying Kronos.
We are doing the right thing.
Not a traitor.
Hermann’s shouting words and Dmitry’s method of accepting those who were actually enemies and granting them wealth and honor according to their abilities added strength to Hermann’s logic.
Hermann’s speech worked perfectly.
People who were shocked by the existence of Emperor Alexander willingly opened the gates, and sometimes those who were willing to fight for Kronos until the end were killed, setting a precedent.
The consequences of the choice were clear.
Fight or surrender?
Die or live?
Kronos, which had lost its pride as an empire, continued to fall like dominoes.
About fifteen days.
When a fortress was captured, its commander raised a white flag and asked for dialogue.
“Roman Dmitry. “The Marquis of Memphis wishes to speak.”
Marquis of Memphis.
Finally he moved.
* * *
Beyond the screen.
I saw the face of the Marquis of Memphis.
The gaze that had once been filled with imperial pride and looked down upon the other person arrogantly had now turned soft.
[I’ll tell you straight.]
Last 15 days.
He had a really busy time.
Preparations were needed to contact Roman Dmitry, and we finally created the perfect plan for today.
[We succeeded in secretly taking control of the imperial family. I will give you Emperor Kronos. How about ending this problem by defeating him and returning with the result that Dmitry won?]
Declaration of surrender.
As he pondered over and over again in his office, he chose the only way he could survive.
