Episode 428: Battle for Dmitri (4)
Ares’ betrayal.
It was fatal.
As the castle gate collapsed and the enemies poured in, Rodwell Dmitry faced them in fierce, boiling flames.
It was an overwhelming presence.
Rodwell Dmitry showed a formidable presence as if he would not send a single enemy, but as time went by, Rodwell Dmitry had no choice but to hit his limits.
Pot.
Grumbling.
I got my head blown off.
The flames spread and swept away the surrounding area, but the sight of enemies immediately filling the space gave no time to catch their breath.
It couldn’t end like this.
In the war against Kronos, which Roman Dmitry had always won with his own abilities, I did not want to hold him back this time.
You have to hold on.
If we wait, the Kingdom of Luna will arrive.
The flames swirling around Rodwell Dmitry swept away the soldiers who were rushing towards him at once.
Grumbling.
It was a melee.
I forgot my own existence.
Instead of instinctively cutting and dodging and calculating in my head, I became like a beast and ran wild.
There was fear in the eyes of the Kronos Empire soldiers.
They were attacking because they were forced out, but Rodwell Dmitry was already recognized as a demonic figure to them.
It was then.
Rodwell Dmitry’s sensitive senses heard a very familiar voice.
“Help Rodwell Dmitry! If the gate falls, it’s over! Team 1 follows me and focuses on supporting fire!”
Quang!
Grumbling.
The magic exploded.
I turned my head to check the top of the castle wall, and saw that Flora Lawrence, who was on the left wall, led some troops to support the castle gate.
She reported it to her superiors and made her move.
After securing the defense system for the left wall, he appealed his opinion, saying that help was needed to prevent the gate from being breached.
This was something that had not been discussed in advance.
When the Knight of Kronos made a surprise attack on Rodwell Dmitri, the wind blew fiercely on the castle walls.
puck.
An arrow pierced between the eyes.
It was Flora Lawrence.
She kept an eye on Rodwell Dmitry and quickly responded to the surrounding situation to prevent him from collapsing.
A strange feeling arose.
You might think it was a natural measure to win the war, but I felt grateful that my situation was understood even in such a confusing and complicated situation.
I looked away.
Now it was time to focus on the reality in front of us.
Rodwell Dmitry gritted his teeth and rushed forward, struggling desperately in a space engulfed in blood and flames.
at last.
That’s how the war was won.
And as a reward for victory, the seriously wounded Rodwell Dmitry was immediately taken to his hospital bed.
* * *
There was a flip side to the glorious victory.
The wounded, including Rodwell Dmitry, were moved to hospital beds, and the number was so large that it could fill several buildings.
At that time, Rodwell Dmitry’s condition was not very good.
As I fought while pushing my limits, my vitality was greatly weakened due to the aftereffects of injuries sustained throughout my body.
I couldn’t get up for a while.
A few days after that.
Rodwell Dmitry, who had finally come to his senses, faced the image of his mother crying as she looked at him.
‘… … What a bad son you are.’
Western Front.
I lost my eye there.
When he saw his mother’s pain as she looked at him, he vowed to become stronger and not cause her that kind of pain.
But it didn’t feel like it.
The enemy Dmitry faced was so powerful, and even though he wasn’t as strong as Roman Dmitry, he couldn’t do anything without risking his life.
I stroked my mother’s head.
Since I couldn’t promise that something like this would never happen again, the best thing I could do was accept my mother’s grief.
But for a few days after that.
Rodwell Dmitry heard strange things.
When people came to visit, there was someone they commonly mentioned as if they had made an appointment.
The first was Knight Commander Jonathan.
“Master Rodwell. It almost got into real trouble. If Flora Lawrence had not quickly grasped the situation and provided adequate support, I don’t know what would have happened to you. Next time, don’t overdo it like this.”
Then I realized.
In order to support herself, Flora Lawrence contacted her commanders and strongly asserted her intention to support them.
In the end, it was an appropriate decision.

Because the defense system of the left wall was firmly established and the gate was supported, Dmitry’s wall did not collapse even after experiencing the variable called Ares.
And the second.
It was his father, Romero Dmitri.
“The Lawrence family has sent us various medicinal herbs for your treatment. These are people I am truly thankful for. “I heard that Flora Lawrence personally went around and found it with great difficulty. You can at least say thank you later.”
Until then, I didn’t feel anything strange.
But the third.
After hearing the words of the therapist who came to check the wounded area, Rodwell Dmitry realized something in common.
“Flora isn’t here today? Flora’s hardships have been endless. He came every day to check on the wounds, and if anything seemed even slightly strange, he would stir me up a lot. But thanks to you, I was able to recover quickly. By the way, Flora’s heart is as pretty as her face, and she often brings food for the therapists.”
While I can’t come to my senses.
Flora Lawrence was around.
I had a strange feeling.
It gave me an opportunity to think about her existence once again, but that didn’t mean I accepted her rationally.
Flora Lawrence was definitely Roman Dmitry’s marriage partner.
Even if the relationship breaks down due to the breakup of the engagement, the aristocratic society will not treat it as if it never happened.
A relationship that can’t even begin.
This was the reality of Rodwell Dmitry and Flora Lawrence.
And time goes by.
When Rihanna Dmitry mentioned marriage.
To his great dismay, the first person who came to Rodwell Dmitry’s mind was Flora Lawrence.
* * *
The human mind needs an opportunity.
The moment Rodwell Dmitry realized that he was in love with Flora Lawrence, he fell into great confusion.
‘I had a heart I shouldn’t have.’
Breaking off the engagement.
A label that inevitably became a problem in aristocratic society, and the person who broke off the engagement was, of course, his older brother, Roman Dmitri, the emperor of the Dmitri Empire.
The future of his relationship with Flora Lawrence seemed obvious.
People would whisper, and perhaps even immoral stories would spread that would question the reason for breaking off the engagement.
I didn’t want to criticize them.
Even if it were him, the story of his younger brother accepting his older brother’s broken-off relationship wouldn’t be very pleasant.
I reflected on my thoughts.
How did I get to feel like this?
If you think about it, your relationship with Flora Lawrence didn’t happen in an instant.
He worked with her on the western front in Cairo to stop the Kronos Empire, and continued their relationship by fighting several wars afterwards.
Everyone accepted each other little by little.
As they worked together on the battlefield, they unconsciously acknowledged that the other wasn’t such a bad person.
It was a relationship that lasted for many years.
When Rodwell Dmitry lost his eye, Flora Lawrence stopped him from making that choice, and when he collapsed while blocking the castle gate, she guarded his sickbed and took care of him.
Perhaps, due to the prejudice that the engagement was broken, the two were not conscious of each other’s existence.
If Roman Dmitry had not stepped forward, their relationship would have been an arranged marriage from the beginning, but when their entangled relationship was put back on track, their relationship was not the same as before.
reality was acknowledged.
if.
Really what if.
When it came to being with someone, Rodwell Dmitry wanted Flora Lawrence to be by his side.
As was the case on the western front in Cairo.
Just as it was in the all-out war against the Kronos Empire.
There was a confidence that even if a problem arose, it wouldn’t be a problem as long as she was by his side.
I thought about it all night.
It was a relationship that no one would welcome, and the person involved, Flora Lawrence, did not know what she was thinking.
It was truly a funny situation. The fact that I am alone in a relationship that is nothing and that it has become this serious.
Late evening.
Rodwell Dmitry took a step forward.
If I knew his true feelings, I could no longer turn away.
In order to at least accept new possibilities in the future, he went to his brother and told him his true feelings.
and.
Roman Dmitry said this to him.
“Once I was called Dmitry’s idiot. Although I did all kinds of bad things, the people who accepted me as a new person did not judge me based on their past prejudices. Rodwell. Just like I had a bad past, it’s all in the past. “Dmitry’s nickname, ‘Idiot’, and even my past of breaking off an engagement.”
I saw Rodwell.
With calm eyes, he gave strength to his choice.
“If you are asking what I mean, I believe you. Do what you want for yourself. “No matter what you choose, no matter what people say, Rodwell Dmitry is my brother.”
that day.
Rodwell Dmitry accepted his sincerity.
* * *
I was embarrassed.
I expected Flora Lawrence, but when I actually heard that name, even Rihanna Dmitry couldn’t react hastily.
‘No way, I thought…’ … .’
Actually, I had some sense of it.
I didn’t think their relationship had progressed, but I felt strange seeing Rodwell Dmitry taking such good care of me while I couldn’t come to my senses.
It was a feeling that was more than companionship.
It seemed like they were probably unaware of their own emotions, but from the perspective of a third person, it seemed like something was out of the ordinary.
understood.
The reality is that the complex situation does not allow for each other to accept the relationship.
Rihanna Dmitry said.
“Are you planning on marrying Flora?”
“… … It’s just my one-sided feelings. After listening to her mother’s words, I went to see her brother and expressed my feelings, and after that, I went to see Flora Lawrence. She said this: As everyone knows, Dmitry and Lawrence have had a falling out due to the breakup of their engagement, and at the moment, it is too hasty to mention their relationship. If my mother hadn’t told me about marriage, I wouldn’t have known how I felt. I’m not saying I’m going to talk about marrying the Lawrence family right away, but I need time to really wrap up my feelings. “Either our relationship becomes more than what we have now, or we remain as colleagues as we are now.”
Flora’s position was a clear refusal.
Rodwell and Flora.
The two were still just at the beginning.
What Rodwell was trying to say now was that sufficient time was needed to solidify this relationship.
Rihanna Dmitry stared at her son’s face.
I had to refuse.
Considering the status of Dmitry’s empire, the people’s reputation, and the complex problems, this was an unacceptable problem.
but.
She knew too.
What Flora Lawrence did on the battlefield and the fact that she did a lot for Rodwell Dmitry.
If you think about it, Flora was the most ideal companion Rihanna Dmitri could have hoped for.
No matter what happened in Arcadia, I felt like I could get through it if Flora was with me.
I thought about it for a while.
After much thought, Rihanna Dmitry spoke in a calm voice.
“Lawrence is credited with founding the Dmitry Empire. No matter what happened in the past, the connection between Lawrence and his in-laws is something to be happy about. But Rodwell. Since this is a relationship that was once broken, Lawrence must be very careful in forming a relationship. I heard that Flora Lawrence was also included in this trip to Arcadia. 2 years. In it, clearly sort out your relationship with Flora and tell me your decision. If Flora and you have the same will, I will gladly bless your son’s future, but on the other hand, if our hearts are not the same even then, you will have to follow my will and take the time to get to know a new relationship. Do you agree with this mother’s thoughts?”
I took a step back.
If that is what the Son means.
I wanted to at least give it a chance.
No matter how his relationship with Lawrence, which started with a broken engagement, ended, he had no intention of forcing his son’s feelings.
Because I know that feeling.
Rodwell Dmitry spoke with a sincere voice.
“… … Thank you, mother.”

That time.
The capital city of Cairo.
Just as the war unfolded around Rodwell Dmitry, Lauren Dmitry also received people’s attention.
but.
Lauren Dmitri’s situation was completely different.
“Until Lauren Dmitry graduates from the academy, we will not discuss marriage-related topics.”
This was the position of the Dmitry family.
This naturally focused attention on Rodwell Dmitry, but he did not act as naively as others.
The issue of Lauren Dmitry’s marriage will be stopped until graduation.
In that case, wouldn’t it be okay to preempt the situation in advance and then graduate from the academy and get married?
People moved quickly.
And among them.
There was also a man who turned his life around as Dmitri.
‘If only we could make Lauren part of our family. ‘There is no better situation than this.’
Just thinking about it made me laugh.
he is.
Unlike others, there was a way to gain the upper hand.
It was then.
smart.
“Professor, may I come inside?”
“Come on in.”
The door opened.
And Lauren Dmitry enters.
As soon as he spotted his face, Henry Albert, a professor at the Cairo Royal Academy, smiled brightly.
“Our pretty Lauren is here.”
Abuse of power.
Henry Albert actively utilized his position.
