I am the Monarch
< Chapter 15 Crash >
------------------------------------
“Khh. Let go of me. Phew.”
Benjamin rolls his eyes with a shivering smile.
‘No matter how angry you are, you can't hurt me. ’
He was a nobleman and a commander.
Moreover, you show yourself even to Earl Lancefield.
Things could have been bigger.
“Hehe, you can't let go of me! ”
I'm getting stronger.
Roan stares directly into Benjamin's eyes.
“You don't think I can hit you? ”
I feel a rush of energy in my hands.
“Hehe.”
I was choking.
‘Actually, it doesn't make sense. ’
Roan smiles bitterly.
This is an exhibition situation.
It was unimaginable to assault a nobleman's boss.
It was a felony that could have been executed immediately.
Nevertheless, he couldn't let Benjamin go.
‘You've learned the Mana method. ’
There's no way a soldier who knows how to handle Mana could be executed immediately.
The man with the knight-grade force was a significant force within the royal army.
You should be punished, but you can avoid drama like imminent execution.
Moreover, Roan had a solution to overcome the situation if he had avoided the immediate execution.
‘And what happened anyway. ’
It was already a big deal to grab the boss' neck.
A few hits won't make a difference here.
‘We have to finish what we started. ’
Once you start, you do your best.
That was his personality.
So I was able to be a spearer in the military for 20 years in my last life.
Win.
My fist was hard.
Benjamin's eyes are wide open.
‘Ey, is this guy for real? ’
When I thought about it.
Roan's fist cracks open the space.
Out of the way!
“Huff!”
Benjamin's snoring bones settle with a dull sound.
“You crazy son of a bitch! ”
The nearby commanders and chiefs look surprised.
Roan swings his spear at them without even looking at them.
Phew!
The spear is stuck in front of their feet.
“I told you, I'll snap Benjamin's neck any closer." ”
“Hehe.”
The commanders and the chiefs couldn't get any closer.
They stare at Benjamin's face with a expressionless expression.
Bloody face.
“Ugh.”
Benjamin shivers as he slams into it.
I had no idea that Roan was actually going to hit himself.
“Son of a bitch. Even when you're like this, you're safe.......”
The horses could not continue.
Because Roan punched him again.
Puff! Puff! Puck!
Roan slaps Benjamin in the face with an indifferent look.
My teeth are broken and my nostrils are completely frozen.
The eyebrows and forehead were torn long.
“Uuurrgghhh.”
Benjamin is half-mad.
He makes every effort to avoid Roan's fists.
However, he was unable to move at will because he pushed the Flamdor Mana to its limit.
It didn't mean Benjamin didn't use Mana.
How can you be so strong? ’
I remembered a feeling of despair full of faces.
“Huff.”
Benjamin sighs loudly.
I couldn't breathe because of my crouching nose.
‘Please, please, somebody stop this guy. ’
desperate eyes.
But no one moved.
Eventually, a mournful voice came from Benjamin's mouth.
“Hehe. P-please, stop it.......”
But Roan's fist does not stop.
‘This is not just about revenge. ’
My eyes became cooler.
‘My last life. Revenge for ruining that life. ’
Puebuck!
I punched him in a row.
“Hehe! Hehe! ”
Benjamin now pours out tears.
“Please. Please stop.......”
Pride and honor were all thrown away.
The fear of being beaten to death just a little more has paralyzed me.
“Hehe. Hehe. Hehe.”
A terrifying cry flows through the fields.
Roan was still indifferent.
Raise your fist again.
“What the hell are you doing! ”
The screams hit my ears.
Roan turns his head, grasping Benjamin's neck.
"Earl Lancefield. ’
The protagonist was Io.
However, Roan's gaze was not on Io, but on the other side.
‘Fence.’
Fence was there a short time after the occupation of the armory.
Did you already? ’
Roan looks a little surprised.
Fence glances at Roan like that and slightly winces at one eye.
He smiled faintly and nodded his head.
Roan sighs for a moment.
‘Looks like you're working faster than I thought. ’
I had a smile on my mouth.
Roan lets go of Benjamin's hand.
Tuck.
Benjamin collapses and buries his face on the ground.
“Huff-puff. Huff-puff. Huff.”
I let out tears and nostrils as I breathed my short breath.
Roan looks at Benjamin indifferently and wipes the blood off his hands.
Meanwhile, Iow took a bumpy step and stood in front of Roan.
“What's going on? ”
Blunt expression and voice.
Roan bows his head instead of answering.
“Your ship, Earl. What just happened.......”
Aaron stepped up and tried to fix the situation.
“Ugh. Earl Lancefield. ”
Benjamin, who was lying on the ground, jumps to his feet.
“Hmm.”
Io looks at Benjamin's face and sees his low depression.
‘It's completely broken. ’
There wasn't a single good spot.
Benjamin yells at the whale in response to the evil.
“Earl Lancefield! The commander of the commoners has dared to insult me! Moreover, even the 7th Army soldiers disobeyed and disobeyed his orders! ”
He was half-mad.
Io frowns and looks at Roan.
Aaron then steps forward and bows his head.
“Earl Lancefield. In fact….."
Aaron's explanation followed for a while.
From the day the Eastern Army headquarters chased the Eastern Imperial Army, to the trouble of falling into a trap, to the unreasonable command that Benjamin repeatedly gave and insulted the last of his comrades who had just died. He's...
I slowly unravelled all the stories.
There was no need to look at Benjamin because he had Io anyway.
“Hmm.”
Io, who heard all the stories, stared at Benjamin.
"Benjamin, this fool missed work because of his specialty greed. ’
I can see why my comrade's corpse was so abundant, even though it was all a victory.
‘And you insulted the dead comrades....... you piece of shit. ’
Io kicked his tongue with an unpleasant look.
Originally, he was from a longevity family who used to escort the battlefield, so he considered brotherhood and companionship very important.
Benjamin's remarks made him very angry.
Benjamin gives a crap whether he knows what's inside of Io or not.
“Pursuing the retreating enemy headquarters is the foundation of tactics. The Seventh Commander is incompetent. He's set up a trap and is making excuses. Besides, the bodies in the field aren't disappearing anywhere.
Su....... ”
When the horse goes on like that.
“Shut up!”
Io couldn't bear it, so he mourned.
“Yes? ”
Benjamin stammers in surprise.
Io looks Benjamin in the eyes.
“Over 10,000 soldiers have lost their lives because of your good pride and study greed. Even if you keep your head down and apologize, you're gonna insult their deaths in the worst way possible? Piece of shit. ”
Cold voice.
“Rae, Earl Lancefield. Well, that's not it…..”
Benjamin was just about halfway out of his mind, startled.
Later on, I realized the nature of Io.
But it was already too late.
“Benjamin Doyle. ”
Io stares at Benjamin horribly.
Cali Orwells, the Knight Leader, approaches as she gestures toward the rear.
He pulls a piece of paper out of his chest.
Bloop.
Iow spreads the paper to Benjamin.
“This is your termination order. ”
At that moment, Benjamin and Aaron, Roan and the rest of the Eastern Army looked surprised.
“Well, what the..."
Benjamin hands over the paper with a trembling hand.
Obviously, it was an order to resign as Commander of the Eastern Army.
“Why would I…? ”
Benjamin looks at Io.
Io's expression was cold.
“When the Eastern Royal Army headquarters first started marching, they built a camp in the rear of Neph, not in Vink. Having fought against the enemy base more than twenty times, I have never won. Scout the Eastern Territories and eliminate the enemy.
I lost support to the local forces I was working with. ”
As the horse continues, Benjamin's face grows white.
I was somewhat aware that Io was reporting on the status of his majors in the Eastern Army and the 7th Army to the Royal Palace.
But I didn't know that I would know everything in detail like this.
‘Even Earl Lancefield was busy defending the eastern region. How……?'
It feels like someone has organized the information and handed it over.
"Ah!"
At that moment, Benjamin turns his head to look at Roan.
Is that him? ’
An information squad created by Roan.
They were able to handle Eastern troop information urgently.
Roan and Benjamin's gaze was confused.
Roan smiles as if he was reading Benjamin's insides.
“Ah.......”
Benjamin bursts into low elasticity.
‘That's him. ’
Mack is unraveling.
He was short of destroying enemy forces appearing in the eastern region and taking over the enemy's supply depot, so he was able to use the intelligence squad to fully assess the situation of the Eastern forces.
‘Scary bastard. ’
Roan was much bigger and scarier than he thought.
It was Roan who reported to Iow the situation of the Eastern Army, as Benjamin had thought.
Because of Io's personality, it would be obvious if he knew Benjamin's true intentions.
Roan decided that Io would definitely report to the palace.
‘After this war, I didn't want you to remain Eastern Commander. ’
Roan stares at Benjamin calmly.
‘Although the dismissal order came down sooner than I expected…..’
That's why he was happy to see Fence with Io.
Benjamin was no longer his superior.
Things were going better than I thought.
Then I heard Io's voice.
“The palace's orders were to remove you from command and expel you from the military..."
He changed his teeth.
“I don't intend to end it that way. Insulting the death of his comrades is not enough to cause so much damage in the war that he gave so many orders to the pursuers. ”
Iow gestures toward the back.
Two knights approach and grab Benjamin's sheep shoulder.
“I will thoroughly investigate and determine your actions and orders so that they may be questioned. Lock him up in the rear camp. ”
“Yes, I understand. ”
The knights answered in one voice and then took a step.
“Rae, Earl Lancefield! Oh, it's unfair! I did my best for the Kingdom of Rhine! ”
Benjamin screams as he is dragged away.
But Io didn't even give me a look.
It is the same for other commanders and chiefs as well.
They no longer needed to see Benjamin, nor did they need to make out.
Benjamin was no longer their boss.
No, it's better to keep your distance from now on.
You could have been involved with Benjamin and punished for it.
“Roan.”
On Ioan's call, Roan bows his head again.
“Yes, Earl Lancefield. ”
After turning Benjamin's face into blood cakes, Roan was very confident.
Iow lets out a long breath with complex eyes.
‘How can I do this.......’
I wanted to applaud Roan's actions emotionally.
But military law is military law.
If you go over the bluff, the military force could collapse.
“I know what you think you've done. But.......”
After a short sigh, Iow was a horse.
“It's a felony to assault a nobleman. I'll ask you about that sin later. ”
Fortunately, the date of the imperial decree of termination was earlier, so a charge of assault was not established.
“Yes, I understand. ”
Roan replied with a bold expression.
Aaron tries to defend himself, but Iow shakes his head with his eyes closed.
It means don't move.
‘There's nothing good about snow coming and going from public places. ’
Aaron recognizes Io's intentions and shuts up.
Two knights come and grab Roan's sheep shoulder.
At that moment, Roan opens his mouth carefully.
“Earl Lancefield. ”
I looked at Io quietly as if what was going on.
Roan hesitates for a moment, then lowers his head.
“I'd like to collect the bodies of my comrades. ”
“Hmm.”
Iow swallowed the moan.
‘It's too different from Benjamin. ’
The size of the bowl was different.
It wasn't Benjamin who matched the Commander, it was Roan.
Iow ponders for a moment, then nods.
“Very well. As soon as we're done, we'll lock you up in the rear camp." ”
“Yes, I understand. ”
Roan leans over his flounder waist and moves on.
He carefully recovers the bodies of the charred soldiers.
Io sighed for a long time while gazing at him.
‘How do I do this…..’
I felt frustrated.
The deeper I thought, the deeper my worries got.
* * *
The disposal of the bodies of the pursuit troops was quickly completed.
Roan was detained in the rear camp as originally ordered.
“Earl Lancefield. Obviously, he did something wrong, but that's all because of Benjamin Doyle. Please calculate that. ”
Aaron actively defended Roan.
Iow hangs his chin with his fingertips, worrying.
‘We were able to win the war because of Roan. It's undeniable fact. ’
Roan holds the ball higher than anyone else.
If this hadn't happened, I could have seen the headmaster's promotion.
‘Moreover, it is a waste of Roan's talent to kill him like this. ’
Io breathed out again for a long time.
When Aaron saw that, he didn't open his mouth.
Because he knew how deeply Io was troubled.
Cali, who was watching the situation, said with a blunt expression.
“A noble assault is a felony. If you keep walking, you'll get a lot of hindsight. ”
He was right.
Aaron says with an urgent expression.
“But don't you think you should consider your majors? ”
It was Io who responded.
“It's definitely not a specialty you should cover up. ”
He worries again.
Cali shakes her head.
“Then why don't we just leave the drama alone and go to the burial ground? ”
“Youbae?”
Io reacted.
Cali shrugs.
“If they're all so talented, why not send them to the guards at the monster-infested area or to the slavers at the border fortress?" ”
Aaron shakes his hand, furious.
“You can't waste your talents like Roan in a place like that. ”
Callie said with a blunt expression.
“It's more important than talent. Law. Moreover.......”
Cali looks into Aaron's eyes.
“Will the other commanders treat him kindly if he stays in the military without a felony? He may not know it, but he's gonna try to hack into it. ”
“That's.......”
Aaron shuts up without a word.
There was nothing to argue with.
Even if I didn't do harm, I was sure that I would be penalized greatly for promotion or non-public work.
At that time, Io smiled faintly as he was rethinking his worries.
“I think it's best to send a message to Master Cali. ”
“Ah.......”
Aaron spills a low tear.
I wanted to argue that I couldn't, but I didn't have a proper solution or a legitimate reason.
Aaron lowers his head in half a dazzled look.
At that moment, Iow stood up and tapped Aaron on the shoulder.
I remembered a strange smile on my face.
“Captain Tate. ”
Soft voice.
Aaron looks up at Iow.
The smile on Io's mouth became darker.
“Don't worry too much. ”
The hand rests on the shoulder.
“I have an idea. ”
