I am the Monarch
< Chapter 12 New Beginnings >
------------------------------------
Of course, getting a medal didn't make me a nobleman at all.
However, it means that if we accumulate a corresponding specialty in the future, we will be qualified to become noble enough.
‘I'm a medal...' ’
Roan looks at Benjamin with the medallion.
"Is that also a medal from Benjamin Doyle? ’
Somehow, a bitter smile came out.
‘It was a bad story in my last life. ’
It was not enough to silence the majors, so many times I ordered him to leave.
The one who wanted to punch his jaw if he could.
Then he received a medal.
“With the permission of Roan, a Grade 5 deputy commander of the Rosewood Division of the Eastern Armed Forces of the Rhine Kingdom, I present the Commander-in-Chief of the Eastern Armed Forces, the Medal of Honor. ”
According to Ive, Roan approaches Benjamin and bows.
“You must be Roan. ”
Benjamin looks at Roan with an interesting look.
‘Eil Canyon Battle, Petian Plain Monster Extermination, The Battle of The St Forest, The Operation of the Frelly River, The Battle of Slan……. I can't believe you have so many majors in the subject of ordinary soldiers. ’
Amazing.
Moreover, he was only 18 years old.
‘There is a greater possibility in the future.... ’
Benjamin, who was ambitious, needed talented people.
‘I'm going to make this opportunity on my side. ’
I'm going to convince the 7th Army and Aaron to take his side, too.
He places a medal on Roan's chest and taps his shoulder.
“You've done well in your studies. Good work.”
“Thank you."
A squeeze.
I didn't want to thank him enough.
‘This is a very strange situation. ’
Obviously it was a bad story in the last life, but until now there was no problem.
Of course, I didn't want to get along well with Benjamin.
‘This one is a troubled one. Even your personality and talent... ’
You're no help if you get close to him.
No, it was more likely to cause harm.
But Roan clears the air of any unpleasantness.
‘Anyway, he's my line manager now. ’
He was still in the Eastern Army.
If I pretended to be here openly, my life could get twisted like last time.
I hear Benjamin's voice.
“With the award of the medal, I will appoint Roan to the rank 4 deputy. ”
A medal, if that's also a Commander-Class Orchestral Medal, is a natural course of action.
Thick prizes and a window of good quality were awarded here as an injury.
“Congratulations."
“Congratulations."
The congratulations of Iowa Rail, Aaron and Gail.
He took a deep breath, looking at the medallion in his heart and the people in his office.
The moment of feeling overwhelmed.
‘Earl Lancefield and Earl Baker, Baron and Commander Gail……. ’
They were the ones who looked at it from afar in their last lives.
But now they're all clapping, looking at themselves.
‘Clearly, the road was opened. ’
Like Aaron said, we don't know if it's the road to becoming a noble, the road to becoming a general, or the road to becoming a monarch.
But at least it won't be the same way of life and death as last time.
Ugh.
Roan grips his teeth.
‘Don't be arrogant, keep moving forward. ’
He tightened his grip on the struggle.
I hear Benjamin's voice.
“Up to this point, there has been an injury from an ordinary Commander's Medal of Honor. But……. ”
He had a strange smile on his mouth.
‘I have to impress this guy here. ’
Benjamin wanted to buy Roan's joy.
“I'll give you one more special injury. If there's anything you want, just ask. If there's anything I can do for you, I'm happy to hear it. ”
An unexpected offer.
Ive also looks surprised.
Iowa Rail, Aaron and Gail look at Roan's mouth.
Especially Aaron and Gail, who have already been through this before, look very interesting.
Roan didn't hesitate again.
‘Benjamin Doyle's personality makes it a moment when he refuses. ’
He was familiar with Benjamin's personality.
Greedy and selfish.
When he said he would give something, it was beneficial to fly.
If I refuse or hesitate once, it becomes completely unresolved.
Roan glances up at Benjamin's face.
“I have someone I'd like to bring to my squad. ”
Benjamin nods, smiling faintly.
‘That's how funny it is. ’
Soldiers belonging to the Eastern Army were able to move troops at their own discretion.
“Who is that? ”
A voice you can confidently ask.
Roan replied briefly.
“This is Harrison, 15th Ranger of the Seventh Brigade. ”
Harrison.
A man with a natural talent for archery.
It's finally time to bring him in.
* * *
Idiot!
Sharp porosity.
Phew!
At the same time, an arrow pierces through a thin branch.
Pavat!
A young man rushed through the forest and pulled the bow.
Tongue!
Heavy resonance.
Idiot!
Once again, with a sharp wave, an arrow breaks through the wind.
An arrow that slits through densely packed trees.
Phew!
The arrow pierces a thin branch indefinitely.
There was a sharp wave in the forest.
* * *
“Where did he go?! ”
Hash, commander of the 15th Brigade of Thorns, has been nervous.
He was broken by the squad leader early this morning.
While looking around for a place to go, there was an invisible one.
“Well, it looks like it went out in the forest. ”
One of the squad members notices and replies.
Hash yells as he kicks the floor.
“Again?! He's crawling into the woods again and shooting arrows! ”
The look on his face that says he's in good hands.
“I was going to give you a hand if you didn't. Good. The Spearman is behind the scenes, and they practice archery every day. ”
Hash grips his fist and grips his teeth.
At that moment, a young man appeared as if he was waiting.
Traditional waist dancing with an elongated shoulders.
Hash sprints forward, shaking his fist.
It's such a sudden attack that you get punched in the face.
But Haas' fist cracks open the void.
“Why are you doing this? ”
because the young man with the bow swiftly turned and fled.
“How dare this bastard avoid my fist? ”
Hash clenches his fist once more, his eyes widening.
Then the door to the barracks opened.
“What? What are you doing? ”
The protagonist of the voice is Pad, one of the deputies of Thorns.
He stares at Haas with a piece of paper in one hand.
“Are you harassing the kids? ”
“Hmmm. Oh, no. ”
Haas shakes his head, loosening his clenched fist.
I had an awkward smile on my face.
Pad glances at Hearth for a moment, then shifts his gaze toward the young man holding the bow.
“Take it.”
“Yes? What is this? ”
The young man received a piece of paper.
Pad shrugs and replies.
“This is a demobilisation order. This is an order from the Commander himself. ”
“Transfer order? ”
The young man stared at the paper with a look on his face.
However, he was blinded by it.
“I'm sorry, where am I going? ”
When asked, the pad answered briefly.
“Twelve squadrons from the Roses of the 7th Army. ”
“Ah……. ”
At that moment, a low elasticity came out of the young man's mouth.
“Rosebushes…. ”
A sound rolling in your mouth.
This is the moment I've been waiting for.
A touching glow came to mind on the young man's face.
The pad slapped my shoulder.
“Let's just pack up and get going. ”
“Yes, I understand. ”
The young man bows his head.
Pad ended up leaving the military quarters.
Hash growls as he approaches, waiting.
“Look at this guy. Very good. I hate this place so much... ”
“Quiet down. ”
Cold voice.
The young man glanced at Haas with a faint smile.
A completely different look and attitude.
“Haas. I am no longer your servant. Don't play dumb with me. ”
Hearing that, Haas' face turned red.
“Son of a bitch! Are you crazy? Do you want to die?”
Screaming.
However, the young man's expression was blunt.
He looks into Haas' eyes.
“Haas. I'm not this guy. my name is……. ”
The young man spoke with a powerful voice.
“Harrison.”
* * *
“Excellent. Definitely better. ”
The rail claps, smiling brightly.
“All thanks to the teachings of Mr Baker. ”
Roan bows his head with a shy expression.
“I'm the one who fixed a few moves. ”
“But thank you so much for taking care of me until the day you left. ”
Rail in full swing and Roan thanks you sincerely.
The two looked at each other and smiled brightly.
Then Liam, the rail performer, appears from afar.
“Baron Baker! It's time to go! ”
“Got it! Got it! ”
The rails scream loudly.
It was definitely not something a nobleman would do.
He was that free and relentless.
“I wish I could stay a few more days if I thought.... ”
Rail smiles bitterly at Roan.
“You can't keep a writer empty for long. Nobles have a lot of catching up to do. ”
He tasted it as if it were a waste.
Rail has guarded the base for more than ten days after Roan's commendation ceremony.
Thanks to him, Iowa and Benjamin were also guarding their positions.
Then two days ago, Kevin's letter arrived.
The details were unknown, but the rail's face was hard, so I told him to come back immediately.
"Baron Baker is dying, and the rest of you are prepared to leave. ’
Earl Iodo has been away for too long, and Benjamin did not wish to stay in these fortified walls for too long.
‘Commander Gail will like it best. ’
After Iowa, Rail and Benjamin leave today, Aaron will return to his headquarters.
‘You've had a hard time serving your superiors. ’
Roan felt sorry for Gail.
After all, it was because of him that Iowa Rail, Benjamin and Aaron stayed at the rose base.
Then you hear the rail's voice.
“Then before you leave……. ”
He took out a book from his arms.
“Take it.”
“What is this? ”
Roan takes the book with both hands.
The rail smiles and replies.
“While I was watching, I wrote down some bad habits, moves, problems, etc. You're not a member of my family and you're not my official student, so I can't teach you how to create, but I didn't want you to just ignore it. ”
“Ah……. ”
Roan bursts a low elasticity.
My heart fills with the care of the rail.
“Why do you care so much...? ”
His voice and attitude were very cautious.
The rails, on the other hand, were still bright and vibrant.
“I'm going to teach Pills everything I have. If it's his gift, he'll probably stay ahead of me. As a teacher, I am very proud and happy, but from his perspective... ”
A hollow smile somewhere.
“It's very lonely and lonely. I don't have anyone to fight against... ”
“Ah……. ”
Roan bites his lower lip.
He notices the void smile on the rail's mouth.
‘You've been very lonely. ’
There is no opponent to fight.
There's never been more lonely and lonely as an armed man.
The rail continues.
“Roan. I want you to be much stronger than you are now. For you, for Fields. Maybe even for me. That's what this book is made of. I hope this helps you get stronger. ”
Saying to be your enemy, not just Phil.
Roan nods slowly.
“I understand what you're saying. ”
The rail slaps Roan in the chest with a bloodshot smile.
“Remember, the day Phil comes back to visit you, you'll have to work hard and practice again to avoid embarrassment that day. ”
“Very well. I'm confident in my efforts. ”
I felt the determination from my tightly closed lips.
The rail nods, smiling gladly.
“Yes. Nothing is more important than effort. ”
He holds Roan's hand.
“You'll do fine. ”
“Thank you."
Roan bows.
The rail gazes south, smiling deeply.
“Shall we go now? ”
Everyone will be waiting to finish preparing for their departure.
“I'll take the lead. ”
Roan smiles faintly and starts walking one step ahead.
The rail soon rises to its feet and closest to Roan.
“No, don't do that... ”
He smiles brightly, shoulder to shoulder.
“Let's walk side by side like this. ”
Roan and Rail.
The two of them moved on relying on each other.
The fate was getting thicker and thicker.
* * *
“Be sure to visit Faver Castle once. ”
“Remember what I said before. ”
“I can transfer you to the Eastern Army headquarters if you like. ”
Iowa, Rail and Benjamin take a step back, not saying goodbye to Roan.
All that's left now is Phil.
“Deputy Roan. ”
Phil stands in front of Roan and bows his head.
“To be honest, I still prefer to stay here. ”
“Fields……. ”
Roan pounces.
Phil raises his head and looks directly into Roan's eyes.
“But I will leave for Deputy Roan, as you said. ”
My voice went out of my mind.
“I'll go and study hard and train and come back as soon as I can. ”
At that, Roan nods, smiling faintly.
“Yes, I'll be waiting. ”
Roan and Fields.
The two of them gazed at each other silently for a while.
After a while, Roan looks back at the rails and grabs his shoulder.
“Baron Baker awaits. Now go.”
“Yes. I'll see you then. ”
Fields bows deeply at his waist.
His heart was still soft and tender.
The deep crouched shoulders trembled.
Roan pats Phil on the back, pretending not to know.
“Go now. ”
Pills turns away from raising his head and steps toward the rail.
The rail rides the horse after it has finished reading such a pill.
Roan stands still and gazes back at him.
‘Bye, Phil. When you came back.... ’
There was a spark in my eyes.
‘A lot will change. ’
As long as it goes according to plan.
‘You'll have a lot of work to do then. ’
Fields was more important to Roan than anyone else.
Meanwhile, Iowa, Benjamin, Rail and Fields left Beno Castle and headed to their respective destinations.
Aaron and Gail watch for a moment, then head to the base.
All that remains is Roan.
The twelve squads guessed Roan's heart and returned to the barracks.
‘I can't even see Kalian's tears anymore. ’
I don't see Pills' back anymore.
“Whew.”
A long breath came out.
I was trying to change my eyes because of my sad eyes.
I see a man approaching from the edge of the field.
A cheerful step in the middle of nowhere.
“Ah……. ”
Low elasticity flows from Roan's mouth.
I saw a man's face with Calian's tears.
He stops trying to turn around and stands guard at the gate for a long time.
A moment later, a man who looked like an egg arrived at the southern gate of Beno Castle one day.
He finds Roan late and rushes to Burinake.
Tick-tock. Tick-tock.
The cookware hanging from a large bag slams into each other.
“Huff. Huff. Ugh.”
The man stands in front of Roan and breathes a short breath.
My excited heart gradually calmed down.
He smiles brightly and makes his way to Roan.
Harrison, a spearer in the 7th Reich, has been reassigned to the Roses. ”
Man, he was nothing but Harrison.
Harrison came to see me the day Phil left. ’
Strange fate.
Weird connection.
Roan taps Harrison on the shoulder with a faint smile.
His eyes were very light.
I feel like I've missed my friend again.
“Welcome. Harrison.”
Soft voice.
Roan gripped Harrison's hands tightly.
“I've been waiting. ”
