I am the Monarch

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

“Jung... information? ”

Chris looks a little embarrassed.

All of a sudden? ’

It was an unexpected story.

Roan speaks indifferently.

“The power of information is immense. ”

He explained in detail the role information played in the battle of The St. Forest and the Operation Frelee River.

“Ah.......”

Chris nods with low elasticity.

‘If I had not known there was a temporary reservoir upstream from the Fréli River, the royal army would have been wiped out. ’

Obviously, the power of information was great.

But what does that have to do with you?

Chris looked at Roan with somewhat questionable eyes.

“I understand the power of information is great. But why are you telling me that......? ”

Roan smiles faintly and points his finger at Chris.

“I want Chris to run an information organization. ”

“Yes?! ”

Boom.

Chris was shocked as if he had been hit in the back with a single head.

“Me, an intelligence group? ”

Something unexpected.

“The Information Guild and the Thief Guild are the only places that handle information. ”

At that, Roan shakes his head.

“I'm not talking about a group that runs like that. ”

The Information and Thief Guilds only collect information that makes money.

Literally collecting information that could be sold, the type of information was very limited.

Moreover, I was also passive because I usually get asked to take care of things.

Chris shakes his head, smiling awkwardly.

“I've never done, I've never thought about information. ”

Whereas Roan looks confident.

“Yesterday, seeing Chris today, he seemed to have a great talent for collecting and analyzing information. If my eyes are right, Chris can run a really good intelligence organization. ”

“Oh, no, I..."

Chris did not make it easy for him to talk.

I was still dazed in my head.

“There's nothing special about being an information organization. You said you were setting up a travel agency. Rather, it was good. because if you're a travel agent, you'll be able to travel to every corner of the Rhine Kingdom and every other country on the continent. It's an even better business to gather information. ”

“Are you asking me to collect information separately as a travel agency? ”

“Yes, when others see it, it's just like a normal travel agency. ”

Roan's words continue.

“The information we collect is analyzed, sorted and sold to people in need. If it's really important information, it's what you call it. ”

“Hmm.”

Chris was troubled for a moment.

However, I shook my head, smiling awkwardly.

“I don't think we can make that decision right now. because I've never really thought about it before. ”

Roan nods slowly.

“Consider and decide. ”

Such a fluffy face.

But my heart was filled with regret.

‘Maybe not yet. ’

If things were going well, I would like to appoint Chris as my Information Officer.

That was a great performance for Chris and his intelligence group, Agents.

‘Ten years at the latest. The age of war begins in five years. ’

An age when all the empires and kingdoms of the continent were on the phone.

An age when kingdoms big and small were intertwined and extinct.

‘Most of all, too many people will die. ’

Blood becomes rivers and corpses form mountains.

‘It would be helpful if Chris could turn his skills around a little earlier and run an intelligence organization. ’

Roan bites his lower lip.

‘Stop the war that can be stopped, save the one who can be saved. ’

I wanted to save as many lives as I could, even if I couldn't stop the age of war.

‘You'd better be a monarch like that. ’

Not a monarch who eats well and lives well alone, but a monarch who makes everyone eat well and live well together.

The monarch that Roan dreamed of was that monarch.

‘Then we can't just stand back. ’

I don't know how it's going to go.

I didn't want to give up here too soon.

“Whatever you choose, I respect Chris' ideas. ”

“Thank you."

Chris nods, smiling faintly.

At that time, Roan pulls out a heavy pocket from his chest.

“Take it.”

“What is this? ”

Chris tilts his head.

“It's an investment.”

“Investments?"

“Yes, I would like to invest in Chris. ”

“Huh.”

Chris swallowed a false wind.

Another unexpected turn of events.

Roan continues.

“This is pure investments, not inferior to information organizations. I have eyes for people. Chris is going to be a huge success. ”

“Oh, no, even if it were..."

Chris is still half-dazzled.

Roan puts his hand back into his arms, regardless.

“And……"

The handkerchief that Ian gave me came from his arms.

He smiles faintly and hands him a handkerchief.

“A handkerchief engraved with the symbol of Earl Philips. If you're interested in the intelligence community, take that handkerchief and visit Earl Philips. We can go find Ian Phillips. He's going to be a big help. ”

Greedy talent.

Sending such talent to others was a difficult decision.

‘But my greed won't ruin Chris' future. Maybe my stubbornness will make the age of war worse. ’

I was going to give him a choice.

Yourself and Ian.

Whichever one Chris chose, he decided to respect that decision.

‘But I can't help feeling bitter. ’

When Roan built his inner smile, Chris had his own complicated head.

Intelligence? Earl Philips? Ian Phillips?

I've been through too much in such a short time.

I feel tangled in my head.

But in the meantime, there was one thing that was certain.

‘Deputy Roan's heart is real. ’

It is clear that Roan's consideration and help are genuine.

Chris takes a deep breath and looks up at the money bag.

“I'll take good care of your investment. We will be very successful and return the favor. ”

“You can just buy me a meal. ”

Roan shakes his hand, smiling.

Chris continued.

“And Earl Phillips' handkerchief..."

He gave the handkerchief back to Roan.

“I don't need this. ”

Chris looks at Roan's eyes.

“If I'm interested in the intelligence community, I'll come to see Deputy Roan, not Earl Philips. It was Deputy Roan who taught me that I have a gift for information. ”

Hot eyes.

Roan takes a deep breath.

Did it go well? ’

Chris chose himself, not Ian.

I was happy to run, but didn't feel comfortable.

Anyway, Chris doesn't mean much to the intelligence community just yet.

‘The future is important. ’

I just took a step.

Roan nods, putting his handkerchief in his arms.

“I understand Chris. I will always support you from afar. ”

At that point, Chris smiled faintly and bowed his head.

“I'm always cheering for you. ”

It's time to really break up.

He takes a few steps back and bends back.

“If you're going to visit Mill, come to Risa Street. ”

“Very well. I'll be sure to look into it. ”

Roan smiles and lowers his head slightly.

Chris takes a step back.

I was so fast that I couldn't see the back of my head.

“Is he that talented? ”

Fields, who was standing quietly beside me, cautiously asked.

Roan nods slowly, instead of answering.

He was one of the young talent leading the Rhine Kingdom and Ian Phillips' right arm. ’

Ian chose Chris from among his pretenders.

Even a tax-deductible genius tactician recognizes talent.

That was Chris.

‘Young talent, by the way.......’

There were people who came to my mind.

‘The Death of the Rhine Kingdom. ’

Death to the Rhine Kingdom.

Four young talents who led the rise of the Rhine Kingdom in their last lives.

New Changshang Fields has been called the greatest spearful talent in history.

Ian the tax-deductible genius tactician.

Everything was perfect except one thing.

A Goldmaster Sale that dominated 70% of the Rhine Kingdom's merchandise.

‘For as long as five years, they will appear like comets in 10 years. ’

Fortunately, Roan knew them well.

Except for one person.

‘Goldmaster Sale is the only person whose past events have not been discovered. ’

In addition, there were very few people who knew their faces, not only the exact age and place of origin.

‘We will meet someday. No. Maybe we met. ’

I decided not to give it much thought.

Strangling her was never going to solve anything.

Roan focuses on what needs to be done right now.

“Fields.”

“Yes.”

“Let's go.”

Phil tilts his head back and forth with his words cut off.

“Where……? ”

In response, Roan waves his spear.

“You need to learn how to spear Roan. ”

“Ah!”

Fields burst low elasticity.

Then, he smiled brightly and nodded.

“Yes! Teach me! ”

A resounding answer.

A warm westerly breeze flowed between the two of them.

* * *

‘I knew he was a genius…..’

Roan sits on a rock staring at Fields.

He jumps without rest and swings his spear.

It only took Fields three days to learn the Roan Spear.

While my footing was still a little out of place or when I stepped forward, I was quite adept overall.

‘It's a great technique, but it's too difficult for regular spearmen to learn. ’

By the time he made his spear, Pills had already reached a considerable level of Manat law.

Moreover, he did not fully understand the talents of ordinary people.

‘But now...'

Phil has not yet mastered Mana, nor has he had much combat experience.

Certainly closer to the common man than the last time I made a spear in my life.

‘Roan Chang 'an can be developed into an easier and more powerful way of creating. ’

That's why Roan taught Pills how to make a spear.

‘This time, I will not only make them in the seats, but I will really think about them and study them. ’

Thinking of helping to make it so.

‘If it goes as planned…..’

I had a smile on my mouth.

‘Allows you to build the continent's strongest spearmen. ’

How Roan was reborn.

It would certainly be Roan's strong base of force.

At that moment, Fields glanced at the spear with a gentle expression.

“Roan Chang's technique is amazing. A spear that powerful without Mana. ”

“Work hard and work hard. Then you'll see a new path. ”

“Yes, I'll keep that in mind. ”

The two of them smiled at each other and moved on.

Because the time I had promised the 12-minute crew was coming.

You hear a loud voice as you enter the meeting place of Caron's Tavern.

“Deputy! Over here! Here!”

“Over here!”

Those guys were waving and screaming.

It was a 12-minute unit, including Austin.

“Are we a little late? ”

He shakes his head at Roan's words.

“No, we just got here. ”

“And some of them aren't here yet. ”

Rand walks out with a horse.

After examining the squad members, Roan nods.

“You don't have Glenn? ”

“Yes, not yet. ”

Austin smiles awkwardly and replies.

Rand wedges in with a wave of his hand.

“Well, they'll be here soon. I'll start with food and drinks. ”

“Yes. Do it. ”

Roan nods, sitting in one seat.

Rand ordered it thoroughly.

‘Maybe we should talk about the holidays. ’

Roan takes a deep breath.

At least a month, three long months.

During that time, you must leave the Rose Army for a short while.

I wanted to tell the 12-minute crew before anyone else.

‘I should tell you by the end of the squad gathering. ’

I didn't want to break the mood from the beginning.

At that time, a big beer was poured onto the table.

“This is the first squad meeting. Tell me about it. ”

Austin skillfully created the atmosphere.

Roan rises from his seat without refusing.

“Everyone's been good so far. I look forward to it. ”

There was no need to make strange noises.

Roan raises his glass high.

“To the 12th Squad! ”

“To!”

An impregnable wooden cup slams into the ground.

Roan clears his glass of beer in a heartbeat, standing still.

“Khhh.”

I feel like my insides are piercing.

Austin and the rest of his squad emptied their glasses.

After the beer was filled a few more times and emptied, the food that I ordered came out.

Different kinds of food.

“Try it. It tastes good around here, though..."

Austin, who recommended food to Roan, waves his hand toward the entrance.

“Glenn! This way! ”

Looks like Glenn's here.

Roan smiles faintly and turns his head toward the entrance.

Suddenly, everything in the tavern slows down.

It feels like the world has stopped.

But it wasn't because of Callian's tears.

‘Ah.......’

Roan looks past Glenn and toward the girl standing behind him.

Brown hair and dark eyebrows, big, clear eyes, smart nose and pale red lips that come down from underneath your shoulders.

Slightly nodding his head, shy of white skin.

The girl felt the Ate feeling and the inviting feeling of a woman at the same time.

Celine.

A woman I wanted to forget, but could not forget, but had to forget.

She's right in front of you.
