I am the Monarch

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

“Is there a reason why the King should gather information from the eastern part of the Kingdom, rather than the core information around Milr? ”

Sharp question.

Chris openly expressed his questions.

Roan nods slowly.

“The eastern region is unusual. ”

“What's unusual...? ”

Chris frowned slightly.

Roan gives a bold expression.

“Monsters have become more ferocious than ever. ”

Of course, that's not true at the moment.

‘The time has come. ’

If the same future unfolds as last time, many monsters will appear around the eastern border soon.

“Hmm.”

Chris gritted his lips.

“They've always been a mess. Delaying Miller's information to know the monsters' movements in advance is a bit... ”

Monsters have always been a problem.

Something that was very common.

I even felt that Roan's response was too much.

At that moment, you hear Roan's voice.

“What worries me……. ”

His expression and eyes were still bold.

“There may be a backlog of the monsters. ”

“Behind?”

Chris frowned.

Roan nods.

“Monsters' nemesis is happening around the eastern border. When I analyzed their appearance area and their direction of movement.... ”

Gulp.

Chris swallowed a dry saliva without even knowing it.

Roan's words continue.

“I think it's coming from the Estelle Kingdom. It's like being chased. ”

“Ah……. ”

Chris burst a low elasticity.

He quickly notices what Roan is thinking.

‘Monsters from the Estelle Kingdom are crossing the border as if being chased...... Then. ’

My head was clear.

Various assumptions were made and repeated collapse.

Then I made the most reasonable guess.

“Could it be that they are sweeping the Eastern Kingdom for monsters? ”

Most formal reasoning.

The same thing happened this year during the Petian Plain Monster Extermination.

‘The number of monsters on the Pedian Plain increased dramatically thanks to the Byron Empire's defeat of monsters one step ahead. ’

Monster Jundong on the eastern border could be seen in the same context.

Roan nods.

“Most likely. ”

He sighs slightly.

‘The Eastern Kingdom is preparing for war, to be exact. ’

It was a war I had never expected in my last life.

Thanks to this, the eastern region became a wasteland.

‘The monsters in the Eastern Kingdom fled towards us in fear of the sudden crowd of soldiers. ’

But in my last life, I didn't think about the monsters.

Then Chris shakes his head and says,

“But it's a little strange. The Eastern Kingdom of this period... ”

The end of the horse crumbles.

Roan nods, smiling faintly.

“That's right. The Eastern Kingdom was originally unable to subdue monsters. ”

“Yes, it's time to focus on harvesting grain. ”

Chris fights back.

The Easterl Kingdom, a fertile plain across the country, was the time to harvest grain with the people and the royal army.

That's why no one in the Rhine Kingdom has ever noticed the readiness for war in the Eastern Kingdom in their last lives.

“And yet you went out to wipe out monsters? Don't you have a grudge against me? ”

Roan smiles faintly and asks.

Chris nods with a serious look instead of an answer.

“So I want to be a little more clear. We need to collect and analyze all the Eastern areas of the Rhine Kingdom as well as the Western areas of the Estelle Kingdom. I want Chris to do that for me. ”

After he finished speaking, he looked Chris straight in the eyes.

It was not a meaningless diet.

‘There may be a different future than what I remember. ’

It was necessary to collect and analyze information in person.

“Hmm.”

Chris nods with a low depression.

“To be sure, the king prefers Faver Castle to Milr. ”

He ponders for a moment, then smiles faintly at Roan.

“Very well. As the situation arises, I'll clear out the travel agency immediately and move it to Faver Castle. ”

“Thank you."

You smile at Roan's face.

But there's still more work to be done.

“And there's one more thing to do. ”

“Yes, go ahead. ”

Chris listens, keeping his posture straight.

Roan pulls out plans slowly in his head.

“There is a fishing village called Per Village on the shore of Lake Porsche. There's a young sailor there, a diver. ”

“Dive, Per Village. ”

Chris mutters and makes a note.

Roan's words continue.

“I'm going to assemble a group of sailors around him. ”

“An organization?”

Chris asked with a slightly surprised look.

Roan nods slowly.

His expression seemed to be joyful wherever he was.

“Yes, we can't just leave that vast lake of foscane behind. ”

* * *

Phew. Phew. Phew.

Breath sounds rough.

It was not the breath of a single person.

Sarak.

The thick southern wind shakes the long growing bush.

Roan sends a beep, looking over the bush.

The Spearman squad, the Swordsman squad, and the archer squad all bowed down.

‘Here I am.'

The cold light was hidden around my eyes.

Roan lowers himself down, following the bush toward the front of the archer squad.

“Harrison.”

“Yes.”

Harrison answers Roan's call with a small reply.

Deputy Jones, who is leading the archer squad, is eager to see what's going on.

Roan points his finger over the bush.

“See that Goblin Longevity Man over there? ”

“Yes, I see it. ”

Harrison nods, swallowing his thirsty nose.

There are over a thousand Goblins and Cobalt troops lurking in the bushes, including Roan, Harrison, or the Rose Troop Spearman, Swordsman and Archer Troops.

A Goblin with a much bigger body and a muscular upper body.

He was the longevity leader of the troops.

Roan points out the Goblin Longevity and asks in a low voice.

“Can you guess him? ”

“Yes?! This is ridiculous. ”

The answer came from the wrong place.

Jones, the protagonist of the voice, was raising his ear.

A skilled archer, he frowns and shakes his hand.

“It's a long way to a Goblin Longevity, but there are too many obstacles in between. And he's on the move. ”

He was right.

Goblins and Cobalt troops are currently on the move in Oat Forest.

Roan and his soldiers were ambushing in a wooded area.

Because of this, there were trees between the ambush and the Goblin Longevity Keeper.

If it weren't for the trees, a squad of archers would have already poured out arrows.

Nevertheless, Roan looks very confident.

He looks straight at Harrison and waits for an answer.

“Phew.”

Harrison smiles faintly, staring at the Goblin Longevity Officer, looking at the streets, obstacles, winds and directions.

“I think I can do it. ”

“That's ridiculous. ”

Jones' reaction was again swift.

He shakes his head in disbelief.

‘He brought me a guy I've never heard of...' ’

Jones didn't like Harrison, who had just moved in from other troops.

It was particularly unpleasant to receive the great attention of Roan.

"You can hit Goblin Longevity here?" No way. ’

Circumstances that need to be taken down immediately.

The moment you shoot your bow, Goblins and Cobalts will see the location of the ambush.

Rosebushes were disadvantageous in the numbers, so rotations were life-threatening.

“It is my duty to meet the Goblin Longevity here.... ”

The moment Jones stepped up.

Roan nods, tapping Harrison on the shoulder.

“I believe.”

“Thank you."

Harrison lowers his head and puts some weight on the bow he was holding.

“Huh?! ”

Jones looks stunned and stiffened.

Meanwhile, Harrison stood up by pulling strings.

“Phew.”

He closed his eyes and felt the wind flow through his skin.

He looks at it and kills his breath.

‘If the longevity dies, the troops will fall into chaos. ’

If only a Goblin Longevity could be defeated, you could win easily.

Ugh.

Then, once again, a scorching southern wind blew.

‘The wind is a little strong. ’

Harrison slowly opened his eyes and aimed for the Goblin Longevity.

Trees filled in front of you.

Delicately misaligned with each other, the cracks were revealed in succession.

‘I see a path. ’

Harrison stops breathing.

The Goblin Longevity Soldier is making a provocative move whether he knows it or not.

When he just took two more steps.

Thung.

Harrison put down a bow.

Idiot!

Sharp porosity.

An arrow grabs the dense crevice and flies away.

Roan and Jones, as well as the eyes of all the soldiers, followed the arrows.

Idiot!

The well-flown arrow does not completely evade the final tree.

Spot!

A slight scratch on the skin twisted the direction.

Jones growls in a low voice, as if waiting for him.

“Look at that. I definitely don't... ”

But the horses could not continue.

"No way!"

The words were the same, but the feeling was completely different.

Because a slightly twisted arrow flew into the Goblin Longevity's head like a lie.

“Glug?”

The Goblin Longevity Soldier turns his head along the porosity that hit his ear, and soon it hardens.

The arrowhead looks as big as a lump of rock.

The moment I thought I had to avoid it.

Rrrrgh!

The arrow pierces your glabella and sticks it in your head.

Bang!

The Goblin Longevity Master is down and unable to move again.

“Glug?”

“Khaak?”

Goblins and Cobalts flock to the side of Goblin Longevity in a sudden situation.

Roan slaps Harrison on the back.

“Well done!”

“Thank you."

Harrison ducks, smiling faintly.

Roan nods, raising his spear high.

“Attack!”

A resounding voice.

Finally, an assault order is issued.

“Waaaahhhh!”

“Kill! Kill them! ”

The troops rush out of the forest as if awaiting. They rush toward the Goblins and Cobalts.

It's the same with Roan.

He was running ahead one day.

Slicing the wind with an elongated spear tucked under his armpit.

The courage spills out.

‘Left, right, right again. ’

Thanks to Calian's tears, Roan was able to break through the densely packed tree to the shortest distance.

“Well, that was fast! ”

“Don't fall behind! ”

“Stay close!”

The soldiers chase him behind with a surprised look.

“Glug?”

“Khaak?”

Then the Goblins and Cobalts woke up late.

They suddenly looked at Roan, and they smashed the shoddy weapons.

“Hmph.”

Roan snores and raises Mana.

However, we still need to hide the fact that we are learning Mana law.

You can't pull Mana out of the window, but you can quickly follow Manaroed.

I felt energized by it.

“Glug!”

“Kaaak!”

The readings of the Goblins and Cobalts hit your ears.

“Die!”

Roan twists his wrist, lowering his body as he does so.

Pa!

The window facing the ground cracked open the space.

A sharp, smooth beam of light is drawn over Goblins and Cobalts' heads.

Spatula.

That sounds creepy.

“Glug?”

“Khaak?”

Goblins and Cobalts prowl and stand still, rolling their big eyes to the left and to the right.

Moment.

Zec.

You feel incontinence in your head and the blood flows out.

Bang!

Those who fall with heavy voices.

It was a swift and powerful blow that was invisible.

Spot! Squeak!

Roan swings his spear through the battlefield.

Goblins and Cobalts weren't always against Roan.

“Glug.”

“Queek.”

Every time the spear went through the room, their throats fell to the floor.

After that, the Spearman Squad, the Swordsman Squad and the Archer Squad swoop in.

Loose-looking yet sturdy in shape.

They slaughtered Goblins and Cobalts, moving as if they were a lump.

The important thing is that different troops, such as the Spearman Squad, the Swordsman Squad, and the Archer Squad, move organically with help.

Goblins and Cobalts collapsed without hesitation.

In the meantime, Roan has been sweeping the battlefield, exhibiting the stolen nothingness.

Screaming!

A spear slashed through the Goblin's throat.

The battlefield is very narrow because the battle in the forest is so difficult.

Armored Chang is becoming less and less mobile and less disadvantageous.

But Roan was very relaxed.

‘The harmony of the law of creation and power. ’

He used radar techniques in melee warfare where windows were difficult to use.

No, precisely mimicking the movements of radar.

It was not just the creation of a new technology, but it was powerful enough.

‘Window's weaknesses are offset by law. ’

This was best for Roan's current ability.

‘With a heightened understanding of each martial arts and technology, we'll be able to create new spears. ’

He was aware of his current abilities and levels, so he did not intend to make a group that was not immediately available.

Now I was just going to take it one step at a time, one at a time.

Roan clenches his fist at the Goblins coming inside the range of the spear.

Puff! Puff!

Heavy Striking Sound.

“Glug!”

Goblins bounce off the ground with crushed heads and ribs.

‘Strong.’

Obviously, the power of the Reid Act was immense.

‘This is all I can think of...' ’

I couldn't imagine the power it would have had to be if it had been done well with the Flemish Mana Act.

Puff! Puff! Puck!

Goblins struggle with consecutive fists.

“Glug!”

“Glug!”

Eventually, the Goblins rush forward, terrified and retreated.

That's exactly what I wanted! ’

Roan swings his spear as if he was waiting.

Squeak.

The window crashes into the chest of the Goblins.

Raid when you're close, spear when you fall.

He had two powerful weapons.

‘The combination of spear and power is better than I thought. ’

I had a smile on my mouth.

He clenches his fist, swinging his spear relentlessly.

“Glug.”

The humble handset continued.

The bodies of the Goblins and Cobalts have been taken from the area.

The battle was coming to an end.

“Whew.”

Roan looks at the battlefield and chooses to breathe.

The twelve and thirteen squads were roughing up a small group of Goblins who survived.

'As expected, the twelve squadrons have the best moves. ’

Perhaps I had time with Roan, so I had no choice but to go ahead of the other squads.

Roan's gaze is towards the Troop Squad.

Thung! Thung!

With a clear resonance, you see a young man firing an arrow without rest.

Harrison.

Unlike the other archers shooting arrows with their bare hands, he was speeding through the forest and pointing the right fortune at the Goblins and Cobalts.

Phew!

“Glug.”

One arrow at a time.

There were even two cobalts in a single arrow.

‘As talented as Harrison's archery is. ’

Roan smiles at Harrison's face.

You look happy.

‘I never made that look in my last life. ’

Roan was delighted.

I feel like I've made my dreams come true as well as others'.

At that moment, you hear the sound of trumpets announcing the end of the battle.

Boooooo!

The sound that always makes my heart pound.

“Whoa! Victory! ”

“Victory! Victory! ”

“Rosebud! Hooray! Hooray! ”

The soldiers cry out, "Long live!"

It's been two months since monsters started appearing on the eastern border.

As of today, Rosebud has fought twenty-two times for a perfect victory.

Roan waits for a moment for the soldiers to enjoy their victory.

“Waaaah!”

As the screams subsided.

He hollers at the soldiers with his spear against his side.

“After clearing the bodies of monsters, clear the forest path and dig defensive pits and ditches! ”

“Yes! I understand! ”

The soldiers still answered excitedly.

They move quickly and start collecting the bodies of Goblins and Cobalts in one place.

At the same time, you dig pits and trenches in both bushes around the forest road.

After watching him for a moment, Roan takes a step out of the forest.

As you come out to the entrance of Oat Forest, you see horsemen rushing from afar.

Cavalry squads from the Rose Army, including Gail and Kenis.

‘Looks like killing monsters in the field is good, too. ’

Gayle's expression brightens.

By the way, Gail yells with a big smile as soon as she arrives.

“Hahaha. This battle is also won. ”

“All thanks to your excellent command. ”

Gail shakes her head at Roan's words.

“No, no, no. Even if your mouth is crooked, it's all thanks to you that we've been able to finish the job. ”

He had a happy smile on his face.

“It was great to be aware of the monsters' predicament, but it was really great to accurately predict where and when they would appear. ”

Kenis got in the way of that.

“It's worth calling the ghost of the battlefield. ”

The ghost of his battlefield.

Roan is fortunate to be a soothsayer once again.

“We only predicted it based on rumors of people moving around the East and the stories of the locals. ”

Humble attitude and voice.

“What's great, by the way, is great. ”

Gail sticks out her tongue.

Then Kennis asked carefully.

“Is there really an Estelle Kingdom behind these monsters, by the way? ”

“Most likely. ”

Roan nods.

‘According to Chris' analysis, the Eastern Kingdom is already prepared for war. ’

To date, the process or timing was similar to the last life.

‘Should I call this good……. ’

I smiled bitterly.

Gail sighs in an uneasy tone.

“Hoo. First of all, some troops at the eastern border are building a defense line for monster subjugation…. ”

He knew why he was nervous.

‘Benjamin Doyle. Because that fool silenced Captain Aaron's report. ’

When he first reported to Gail what had happened to monsters and the Eastern Empire forces, Gail immediately reported to Aaron.

I already knew Roan's ability, so I had no doubt or hesitation.

Aaron also, shortly after reviewing the content, reported to Benjamin, the Eastern Army commander.

But...

< Don't mess around with the monsters. >

I came back to blame and heenan.

Aaron reports again and again, but every time, he's completely silenced.

Eventually, he sent a letter to other friendly captains, and at the moment only a handful of troops are focused on building a defense line on the Eastern Border.

‘Benjamin's making it hard again. ’

It was Benjamin who couldn't do anything right from the last life.

However, thanks to Aaron's efforts, at least some of the troops moved.

‘Even if the Estellers invade, they won't collapse in an instant. ’

In my last life, I lost half the eastern region in an instant due to a surprise attack by the Eastern Imperial Army.

At least I won't be so miserable in this life.

"All you have to do is wait until the other regional forces, Benjamin, and that idiot are ready for battle. ’

It was the least I could do.

At least not according to Roan's plan.

But no matter where life goes, it just goes.

One of the soldiers rushes in to perform the ritual.

“Oong. Commander Roan. A man named Pence came to see me. ”

“Hmm?"

Pence was one of Chris' guys.

Roan bows slightly to Gail and Kenneth and follows the soldier.

Fence is circling a little distance from the entrance to the Haute Forest.

He lowers his head to Roan and pulls out a small piece of paper from his chest.

“Chris sent me. ”

“Thank you.”

Roan looks a little nervous.

I didn't feel good for some reason.

He carefully unfolds the paper and examines it.

My face became stiff.

The content of the note began with a rather unpleasant sentence.

< There is a bad sign. >
