I am the Monarch

------------------------------------

The 7th Army arrived at Iphen Castle, a military city in the eastern part of the Rhine Kingdom, ten days after marching.

Baron Tate, the Holy Father of Ifen Castle and seventh platoon commander, hurried to work on the troops before the troops left their headquarters.

It was the turn of the Rose Army, so I built a camp outside of Iphen Castle and took a break.

The number of generals and seniors, as well as regular soldiers, is increasingly relaxing.

Roan splits into pieces and focuses on practicing spear.

‘Get used to what you remember as soon as possible. ’

Practical spears and Fields skills that I've learned and learned over the last 20 years on the battlefield.

In addition, he remembered many different ways of spearheading and beating.

‘I train and train until my body reacts on its own. ’

From the moment he returned to the past, he pushed himself to the extreme.

Thanks to this, my physical strength, strength, and movement were noticeably improved as well as my spear skills.

‘Pills was a big help. ’

As Roan divided his personal time, Fields and Spearman struggled again.

‘Thanks to this, I was also able to sharpen and polish my senses. ’

I was not nearly as good as I was before I died, but I reached a pretty similar level.

‘But it's still not enough. ’

The moment you are satisfied, you stagnate.

Roan whips himself in case he gets lazy.

Just like before, he focused on practicing spear in a clearing in the corner of the camp.

Passes.

Hair splashes in the westerly wind.

Pavat!

The spear cuts the wind and dances.

A spear without maggots.

The extremely practical spear gently connected without any irregularities.

"Huh?

At that moment, I could feel someone approaching the void.

“Whew.”

I took a deep breath and shook my spear.

At the same time, a strong man suddenly appeared at the corner of a shabby barracks.

Very familiar face.

It was Austin, the subcommander.

“Deputy Roan. ”

Excited voice in the middle of nowhere.

“What's going on? ”

As Roan smiles faintly, Austin raises his thumb.

“It's finally my turn. ”

He laughed brightly so that his teeth could be seen.

“Finally, Deputy Roan, it's your turn to do the honors. ”

“Ah.......”

Roan shed a low elasticity.

It's been four days since we arrived at Ipen Castle. ’

In the meantime, a considerable number of troops return to their headquarters after completing the negotiations.

‘Finally, it's my turn. ’

What I wanted was fixed.

‘You must enter the Brandt Library. ’

It shouldn't be difficult.

The Brandt Library is now almost famous.

Only the nobles could enter, but even the nobles haven't moved on for a long time.

"You don't have to refuse a request to see the library. ’

Of course, it's entirely Roman's idea.

“Deputy Roan. ”

Austin calls out to Roan once again, standing dazed.

Then Roan nods slowly.

“Yes. Let's go then. ”

Roan takes a slow step.

Gail was waiting for me as I arrived at the commander's barracks in the center across the camp.

“Your turn has finally come. You waited a long time, didn't you?”

“No, I'm not.”

Roan bows slightly.

Gail walks one step ahead and speaks.

“If it's your personality, you can ask what you want. Don't look at it then. Tell me what you want honestly. ”

He explained Aaron's nature and non-public manner throughout his journey to Iphen Castle.

‘He likes to be straightforward rather than impetuous. ’

Roan smiled deeply.

Every little piece of information like this becomes a big force later on.

Meanwhile, Gail and Roan pass through the western gate of Iphen Castle to the Army Headquarters.

“Phew!"

The guards guarding the entrance to the headquarters found Gail and took the ordinance.

Gail nods lightly and insists on walking.

He was also full of excitement about Roan's work.

“I'm Commander Gail of the Roses and Deputy Roan of the Fifth Grade. ”

The giant door opens wide as you stand in front of the army headquarters gathering room and drop a message.

‘Big.’

The convention room was quite large.

The ceiling was high and the space was wide.

A large table sits on a slightly elevated platform in front of it, with long wooden chairs lined with back and back to back.

‘Captain Aaron Tate. ’

You see Aaron across the table.

He was looking hard at the piles of paperwork.

Gail stands in front of the statue and takes the ordinance.

“This is Commander Gail of the Rose Squad. ”

After that, Roan bows his head.

“I'm Deputy Roan, Fifth Grade of the Rose Squad. ”

Then Aaron, who was distracted by the paperwork, lifts his head.

The faces of the six middle-aged men who were left and right were also interesting.

‘That's the same Roan. ’

"It's called the Ghost of War. ’

‘The biggest one in our 7th legion. ’

The middle-aged men were the chiefs of the headquarters of the army serving Aaron in the furthest reaches.

Although the title was a chief of staff, it was said to be one step higher in sequence than Gail.

I hear the commander of the special forces, Richard, is after the Hochtam. ’

‘Then he's a really good guy. ’

Shall we bring him to us? ’

The eyes of the chieftains search Roan's body thoroughly.

Roan didn't know that look and attention.

‘I do what I have to do. ’

I had to go to the Brandt Library right away, and then I took a leave of absence and went to Porter territory.

I had no plans to relocate to another unit or take on another commander at this time.

“Mendel, read your thesis report. ”

A handsome middle-aged man standing beside Aaron's words spread a thick stack of paper.

“Let's start with the discovery of an ambushing group of Goblins in Ale Canyon. ”

Mendel literally reads through the Prelli River Craftsmanship Operation and the performance tables on the Pedian Plains from the time he first built Roan back in the past.

Everyone sticks out their tongues at reports that the monsters who slit their throats are over ten fingers long.

Everyone looked surprised to hear that they had rescued an army that was at risk of extinction.

I thought you just graduated from training. ’

I can't believe an eighteen-year-old pulled this off! ’

‘I studied a lot more than I heard. ’

The chiefs look at Roan with their tongues raised.

Aaron's expression, on the other hand, was calm.

He narrows his eyes and looks closely at Roan's body.

You're not hiding who you are, are you? ’

Aaron gets up and heads for Roan.

Mendel was surprised for a moment, but did not stop reading the report.

Ugh.

Aaron grabs Roan's wrist.

"Huh?

Roan quickly bows and frowns.

What is it?

Suddenly, Aaron's behavior wasn't understood.

At that time, a strange energy entered my body through my wrist.

It feels like a cold feather is tickling me.

I felt like I knew Roan well.

‘That's Mana.’

I've been through Pills a few times in my past life.

Aaron was pouring his Mana into Roan.

Actions to make sure that Roan is familiar with Mana law or can handle Mana.

Are you doubting me? ’

Roan bites his lower lip.

I didn't have to live here for no reason.

He let out his wrist, relaxing his full rigidity.

“Whew.”

A few moments later, Aaron takes a deep breath and returns to his seat.

You had a hard to find smile on your mouth if you didn't look closely.

‘I never learned how to play Mana. Then…..’

I heard it was all thanks to pure spear that slashed the heads of monsters and acted against them.

"You cut the Orc commander's head with a spear that has no Mana method? ’

Honestly, it's an unbelievable subject.

Was he lucky? Or are you saying you're that good with your spear? ’

Either way, it was a great strength.

‘As luck would have it, your spear skills are incredibly useful. ’

Aaron's face suddenly had a joyful look.

“I'll finish my report. ”

In the meantime, the majors that Roan has been piling up have ended.

“Fantastic.”

I really admire your voice.

“It's an amazing specialty. ”

“Nothing is impeccable. ”

“What an amazing performance. ”

The other chiefs who were listening raised their thumbs.

“I was lucky. ”

Roan bows slightly.

Not too modest.

I didn't even want to hide the ball.

Aaron glances at Roan's face for a moment and asks as if to spit.

“Big balls, so big prizes. Is there anything you want? ”

It's out.

Gail gives you a slight nod.

‘If you want something, tell me honestly. ’

I remembered the advice I asked all the way to the Army Headquarters.

Roan raises his head slightly and looks at Aaron.

“I have one wish. ”

“Oh.”

Aaron bursts a little elasticity.

I didn't expect you to say what you really want.

He said with an interesting expression.

“I like your cool personality. Yeah, tell me about it. If it's not too much, I'll listen to it. ”

Roan picks his breath.

Instinct choice.

A brief silence left Aaron speechless.

Roan smiles faintly and speaks in a small but powerful voice.

“I'd like to see the Brandt Library. ”

Boom.

Aaron's face twists nervously for a moment.

In addition, Gayle's expression was favorable with the chiefs of the headquarters.

"Brandt's Library? ’

All you want is a tour of the Brandt Library? ’

Are you out of your mind? ’

Everyone seemed to have a strong sense of humor.

Aaron clears his mind late and bursts into laughter.

“Huh! You want to see the Brandt Library? Is that really what you want? ”

“Yes, it is. ”

Roan bows slightly.

He notices the feelings of Aaron, Gail, and the chiefs at the headquarters.

‘Now you won't understand why you want to see an old library that no one else cares about. ’

If it hadn't been for Roan, he wouldn't have even looked at the Brandt Library.

The bald man sitting on the left chair frowned and said.

“But wanting to see the Brandt Library..."

After briefly blurring his words, he looks unbelievable.

“Do you really know how to read? ”

Aaron and Gail look surprised.

"You know how to write? ’

You know how to read? ’

Something I never thought I'd do.

"Yes. If he had such ingenious strategies and tactics, he might be able to read and write. ’

Everyone stared at Roan with a suspicious look.

Roan smiles faintly and replies briefly.

“Yes, you can read and write. ”

“Oh!”

Aaron bursts into great elasticity.

‘A long time ago, a regular soldier could read and write. ’

Knowing writing was a tremendous ability.

Only the commanders and some of the deputies in the 7th Army knew the writing, except for the chiefs from the headquarters.

None of the ordinary soldiers could read and write.

In fact, in the case of Roan, it was only until the mid-30s that I could barely learn to write.

Because I needed the ability to read and write while I was in command of the First Legion Spearman Squad.

‘Well, thanks to Fields. ’

Sometimes I needed to learn how to read the letter that Pills sent me.

‘Even if I had learned it a little earlier, the way to progress would have opened up quickly. ’

That was also one of the choices I regretted.

However, it was possible for Roan to read and write at the age of 18.

‘The more I know, the more I am coveted. ’

‘I could use it if I could bring it under me. ’

The eyes of the chiefs in the army are fixed on this.

You hear the sound of Roan's ransom rising.

Gail bites her lower lip.

‘Whatever you do, you must keep her by your side. You can't take this talent away from someone else. ’

I regretted it later.

‘I should have given him a third grade assistant, not a fifth grade assistant. ’

But it's not too late.

‘I'll have to do it again. ’

Gail's eyes sparkle and glow.

Then I heard Aaron's voice.

“If you can read and write, the Brandt Library is also quite charming. It's old and shabby, but it's still one of the best-known libraries in the Eastern Rhine Kingdom. But.......”

The end of the horse is blurred.

I remembered a look on my face.

“The Brandt Library is a ruin because it's not very well managed. Why don't you get a different venue instead of looking at those old libraries? ”

He claps his hands lightly.

A soldier with a nice spear and a leather bag as big as two fists appeared behind the assembly room.

“The king also bought this spear when he went to Mill. A spear crafted by a blacksmith within three fingers in the Rhine Kingdom. I'll reward you with silver with this. What do you think?”

The voice of a gentle question.

Roan looks at the bag of spears and the leather pouch.

‘Definitely a good spear. There's plenty of Silver Coins in there. But.......’

I couldn't use it yet, but I had Travis' spear and I could make a lot more money if I wanted to.

Above all, there's only one thing he needs.

Granted access to the Brandt Library.

‘It's an adventure.'

Roan lowers his head.

“I want nothing more than to see the Brandt Library. ”

Polite but resolute.

Mendel frowns for a moment.

“Arrogant. How dare you..."

“I'm fine.”

Aaron shakes his hand and smiles faintly.

‘Funny. You don't have enough good spears and a bag of silver coins? ’

He clutches his chin with his hands clasped.

“Good. Then I'll make you a third-rate deputy. If you wish, I will also provide you with a small house near the Rose Base. ”

Strong greetings and conditions.

"Are you going to hang yourself in a library or something? ’

I wonder what the answer will be.

Aaron's eyes and tail move up and down in a rush.

Are you testing me? ’

Roan raises his head slightly and looks into Aaron's eyes.

I remembered what Gail said.

‘The commander likes to be unpretentious and straightforward. ’

In that case, the justice is the best.

Roan nods once more.

“I already got a lot on my plate when I was a military contractor. I won a prize. I got a sub-commission. The merchants, such as spears, prizes, and houses, should take their lives and give them to the regular soldiers who fought on the front lines. Because of their presence, they were able to lead to victories in the Eile Canyon Battle, the Prelli River Craftsmanship and the Fedian Plains subjugation. ”

“Oh.”

Aaron, Gail, and the chief of staff all burst into resilience.

‘Good.’

‘It has the qualities of a good commander. ’

‘Excellent.'

A happy face.

After a brief glance at Aaron's face, Roan bows his head.

“I want nothing more than to see the Brandt Library. ”

“Hmm.”

A low elasticity flows from Aaron's mouth.

“I'd give anything for a promotion, a house, a spear and a pocket of silver coins I bought in the royal city. ”

“Yes.”

Roan still bowing his head.

Aaron shakes his head, gazing quietly at the figure.

“The Brandt Library is only accessible to nobles.......”

He blurs for a moment, then claps his hands.

Pair!

Sounds cheerful.

“Good. I have no choice but to grant your wish. ”

At that moment, I saw a bright smile on Roan's face.

‘There you go.'

He soon hides his face and replies with a powerful voice.

“Thank you."

I got what I wanted.

At least until now, everything has been done according to its will.
