Dungeon Defense (WN)

I devised it as soon as the speech was finished by the Emperor.

“There's no need to hesitate. All forces, engage in pursuit. ”

Overnight, the eclipse was taken down. It was an unexpected speed for the enemy. We had to make the most of these surprise effects.

“The Brittany scraped the food out of Parisian rooms. The supply wagon will be fine. Even the Brittanys in the underworld couldn't get far while they were moving with the wagons. ”

Garmigin's Wyvern troops have never been in combat in this war. Hundreds of Wyvern have all been used as scouts, in other words, for irregular warfare. They have not missed the Brittany Army retreat route.

“According to scouts, the enemy is only a hundred leagues from the Imperial Archipelago. From now on, we will pursue and kill the Demon King Against. And we end the war with our own hands. ”

I smiled beautifully. Then the excited Demon Kings said in a loud voice. My offer was unanimously accepted.

* * *

An hour, maybe. You cleared the battalion before the march.

If the number of soldiers reached 25,000, marching was also bad. I switched from a siege formation to a march for the enforcers. While the commanders were running around clearing out the troops, I had my own work to do.

It was to meet Baron Bercy.

Baron Bercy was mixed in antiradiant cleavage. I felt like I was running as a member of the civil service representative last night. I jumped out of the barracks wearing an inflatable ball. Daisy followed behind me quietly.

“Baron Joon. ”

“…… Priest Jean Bolé. ”

Baron Bercy slowly turns his head. Your face is covered in fatigue. Maybe he's tired of fighting the rest of Brittany all night long. He said coldly.

“What's going on? ”

“I was worried about you last night. I'm glad you didn't get hurt by the sword. ”

Baron Bercy's expression became cooler.

“... thank goodness. Are you saying it's a good thing I don't have any scars on me? ”

“Of course, Baron Joon. Not only you, sir, but I hope Frank's patriotic front is safe. ”

It was then that Baron Bercy grabbed my collar.

Joon-saeng, who had been a rugged lord of a remote village all his life, couldn't help but feel his hands. I looked at Baron rather than panicking. Baron Bercy's face twists with rage like an evil spirit.

“The slayer who slaughtered innocent people dare to be hypocritical...!" ”

“ ……. ”

“I believed him to be a faithful priest. No, before that, I thought he was an intact human being. That's why I cooperated...... Make an excuse, Jean Bolé! Why have you slaughtered innocent people? ”

Baron Bercy was ready to bite my neck right now. Then I realized that the man in front of me was not just overwhelmed by the blood accumulated last night.

“Why? People starving and suffering just because they met the Emperor by mistake, just because they were born in this country...... Why did they kill them! ”

Baron Bercy vomits a bloody voice.

A people suffering from war. Colleagues purged by Henrietta. in addition to the massacre that took place outside the walls. The disasters that were too big to bear for one human were so successive.

“If you do not answer, I will take your life! ”

Baron Bercy must be on the verge of collapse.

I felt that I could only endure the horror and the coming. The responsibility for the country and its people, and the guilt that comes from not being able to save them. And there was probably even a betrayal towards me....

I thought about it for a while. Is it okay for him to die?

Baron Bercy has done me no harm. I have never threatened my life or my comfort, nor have I ever threatened anything in the future. Nevertheless, I took advantage of the Baron's trust. This man had every right to be angry with me.

But it is. Let's give it a try...

“It was for Frank. Mr. President.”

“For Frank's sake...? ”

“Yes, for Frank's future. Above all, for the pride of the people. ”

I answered calmly.

The fist that grabbed my collar became stronger. I was short of breath, but this was fine. It was decent enough to survive.

“Don't tease the ulcer. The same people you speak of are dead! You're not going to make excuses about the massacre being decided by the top military and not being involved…… You were the only one standing in a position to negotiate with us. There is no excuse for the bystander! ”

“Of course.”

I raised my mouth.

“I don't mean to offend a bystander. On the contrary, it was Jean Boley who suggested the massacre. ”

“ ……! ”

Baron Bercy punches. His fist struck my cheek with an authentic fist.

At that moment, she turns her head and looks back at Daisy. Daisy was already halfway out of her arms. Daisy was engraved with a slaver to exclude anyone from threatening me. Maybe that's why.

Don't move.

I said it with my eyes. Daisy stops. Instead of pulling out the dagger, I glanced at my side. Are you really okay, "he asked silently. Ah. I'm fine.

It was a moment when I looked back and forth. I turned my head and looked back at Baron.

“Are you feeling better? Thank goodness. Violence also suits my taste in solving cases. Hit me until I feel better. ”

“You…. ”

“But I'm disappointed, Mr. President. Are you sure you didn't get my intentions? Or are you deliberately ignorant? ”

Baron Bercy's eyes are very slight, but shaken. Indeed……. Somewhat presumed, but not sure, or do not want to believe Is that what it is?

“If the massacre hadn't happened, none of the Parisian citizens would have been more terrified than necessary. They must have taken the Pyongyang Temple quietly. ”

Then one day it would have fallen.

“Then the people who took the city became the Habsburg Empire and the Republic of Batavia. The citizens of Parisian rooms have no role. It's very subjective. ”

“ ……. ”

“Parisian rooms will once again be occupied by foreign forces. The Brittany has turned into the Habsburg, the Batavians. Foreign affairs continue. Frank's autonomy and independence are inevitable. ”

Baron Bercy is silent. Anger is rising, but it is convincing. It felt like that.

Good. Even in a mental state, I still have time to be aware of the current situation. That's important. In my view, Baron Bercy is a close pass point.

“What future awaits the Franks? A foreign government, at best. That's it.”

“It is……. ”

“Let me tell you more. I'm not done talking about this. ”

I stared at Baron Bercy. It had already disappeared from the man in front of me. You can't deny what I said.

“I'm glad to see you've turned into a puppeteer. This is a coalition of Habsburg and Batavia. The two countries have completely different ideologies…… OK? Habsburg will be the royal party, Batavia will be the Republicans. ”

The Republic of Batavia's military made a crucial contribution to looting the armory. I can't ignore it. The Habsburg Empire, or the Demon Lord's army, must acknowledge the work of the Republic.

I smiled bitterly.

“Four years ago, Frank, the Emperor and the Emperor, would have been divided again into two forces. I became a puppet of the Empire and the Republic and shed blood among my own people…… I wanted to be independent from a foreign land called Brittany, but this time it's divided. What a farce. ”

Baron Bercy's shoulders start to tremble. I felt the strength slipping out of my hand holding my collar. I kept pushing.

“How much more blood do I have to bleed? It's hard for me to imagine……. ”

“ ……. ”

“Baron Joon. Do you think Frank would be proud of himself in such a situation? ”

I seized the opportunity like everyone else, but I was overwhelmed by the Empire and the Republic. If we kill and kill our own kind, the day will surely come when we will fall into battle. Frank for what? What on earth are they sacrificing their lives for?

I'll lose my patriotism for Frank. When ideologies burn and fight each other fiercely, the more they fight, the only thing left behind are the gray blotches. It becomes a dog that loses boredom, disappointment, and pride.

“A dog that loses pride obeys its feeding master. The ruling party and the Republicans will fall, and the people will only want dictators with strong leadership. Baron Bercy. The opening of the Doom. ”

“No. That can't be... ”

“Can you really say no? ”

My gaze became stricter. It was not nonsense. In this world, there was an ancient country called the Far Republic. The end was the emergence of a dictator, the Grand Chaplain, and the ideology of the country itself was shattered.

Baron Bercy, the nobleman, must have learned the history. He did not deny it.

I said it cheerfully.

“As you pointed out. I slaughtered a human. But thanks to that, the Parisian room was proud. ”

“ ……. ”

“They have recovered the city on their own, not on foreign soil. Even the Emperor of Habsburg did not conquer the city. In the event of a massacre and if not, which do you think will create a more favorable future? ”

Baron Bercy was unable to answer. I asked you one last time.

“Will you condemn me to the slaughter I committed? ”

“ ……. ”

Baron ducks his head. I see. You can't answer....

I tapped the baron's hand. I had no strength in my hands. I accidentally slipped off my collar. I lightly trimmed my collar. I was glad it didn't crumple bigger than I thought.

“Baron Jhun, we will now track down the Brittany army. You should lead a private army and join us. ”

“Why……. ”

“Kill Frank's emperor. ”

Baron Bercy raises his head helplessly. Compared to just a few minutes ago, his face seemed to be twenty years old.

“Your Majesty...? ”

“Causing civil war and wielding foreign monarchs as they please. Eventually, they abandoned the capital and fled. No one recognizes Henry III as the Emperor anymore. It's in Frank's best interest that the emperor, who causes nothing but trouble, vanishes quickly for one day. ”

Baron Bercy shudders.

“Do you think it's blasphemous? Don't worry. You're an accomplice if you can't convict me. ”

I whispered to him nicely.

“Baron Joon. The same end as Marshal Tabanese does not suit you. Suffer for Frank's people all his life. ”

Thirty minutes later, I left with the soldier and asked him to come. Baron Bercy could neither arrest nor restrain me.

The morning was dawning in the Parisian room.

* * *

“My dearest Chancellor. ”

Laura raises her glass of wine high.

The middle of the night of frenzy and slaughter and the morning of the cold sun. The glass at dawn glows coldly with wine glasses. Along Laura, thirty Demon Kings raise a glass of wine.

“To victory. ”

“To victory! ”

Everyone quickly emptied the wine. Then I poured an empty glass onto the ground. I shattered dozens of glasses.

The Republic of Batavia has decided to stay behind and guard the armory. This included political targets for the Republicans to take over the Parisian space. Right now, even the most pathetic prisoners are locked up in the fortress.

The rest of you, the Demon Lord, will advance immediately before pursuit.

First in command. Fifth in Marvas.

Second platoon commander, third place.

Third platoon commander's predecessor, rank 8 Barbato.

Prior to Group 4, the ninth place, Pymon.

Deputy Commander Laura de Farnese.

Chief of Staff, 71st place in Dantalian.

Powerful men who control the continent, who rule as masters of Manma, advance early to become powerful allies of heroes who have never gathered under a single flag.

The end of the war is near.
