I am the Monarch
< Chapter 18 Phosphane Exodus >
------------------------------------
Mediahn Village is once again noisy.
It's because the nobles who received Roan's orders started moving around with their own troops.
Roan ordered that a dozen men be attached to each unit to guide them to their exact location.
‘30,000 troops....... Minister. ’
Roan stands on the watchtower and smiles at the scattered troops.
With this level of force, we should be able to stop the phosphine exodus.
‘It will be different from the last life. ’
In my last life, monsters were badly hurt because I couldn't stop them in time.
But this time, at least in the North, Roan's actions allowed us enough time to prepare.
Then.
“Beacon Mounds.”
Beacon Mounds bloom from the south.
Beacon Mounds have been climbing several times a day since the beginning of the Foucaine Exodus.
Before Roan even gives the order, the bells and whimpers reverberate.
Deng, Deng! Deng! Jing, Jing!
Amaranth's troops plunder, as if awaiting.
Truly very agile and disturbing.
Roan hurriedly came down from the watchtower and was ready to march.
“Beacon Mounds have risen from the south! ”
A resounding voice.
Roan looks directly at the faces of Amaranth's men.
“Armies of Amaranth! Let's go!”
We have orders to march.
With Roan in front, Amaranth's troops leave the base.
It was truly magnificent.
“Definitely a well-trained unit. ”
Simon stands on one side of the headquarters and watches the march, admiring the small voice.
Io stood next to me and smiled brightly for no reason.
“Yes, it's a rare force these days. ”
In Io's words, Simon nods quietly.
"Roan. Amaranth Force. Maybe you'll be a big help on my path. ’
My chest became hot.
Subjugation started to take the lead in the throne competition.
I thought that I might get a big treasure I never thought I'd get in this subjugation.
‘If Roan were to follow me.......’
We can't let him be the commander of this transition zone.
‘I need to empower him. ’
I remembered a strange face full of faces.
Simon was looking to the far future, not today and tomorrow.
* * *
The Tail Region subjugation was much easier than I expected.
After building defensive lines east and west, Amaranth and Simon's headquarters went on an active sweep.
It was definitely a very positive situation, but Roan was not careless.
“It's easy, but it's too easy. ”
He frowns, looking at the map spread out on the table.
He was accompanied by white artisans, including Austin.
“What do you mean? ”
Careful what you ask.
At the end of the bar, Roan points to the southern part of the Tail.
“Somehow I feel like the number of monsters has decreased. ”
It wasn't just a feeling.
Since the actual Simon and nobles arrived at the Tail, the number of Beacon Mounds has decreased dramatically.
Austin smiled and said.
“Don't you think it's time for the Foucaine Exodus to end? ”
Many white artisans nodded as if in harmony.
However, Roan's expression is hard, and there is no sign of relief.
‘No, that's not it. The phosphine exodus continues for the next twenty days. ’
He remembered precisely how many days the Forsaken Exodus lasted.
Because there was a big incident that I had to.
‘In the last 3 days, more than five times more monsters poured out than usual. ’
It's called Final Exodus.
In his last life, the Rhine Empire army considered Exodus to end because of the fewer and fewer monsters.
In the end, I suffered heavy damage to Final Exodus for the last three days because of this carelessness.
‘Not when Exodus is finished. ’
There must be another reason why the number of monsters has declined.
‘Informants and agencies have asked us to find out what caused it, so we will find out soon. ’
We couldn't go on with the operation in a strange state.
Then.
Knock, knock. Knock.
You heard a knock on the door of the conference room.
“Come in.”
The door opens terribly and I see a familiar face.
It was Keefe and Agents' informants who were in charge of the informants.
“I finished what you told me to do. ”
Very urgent expression and voice.
Kip steps forward and stands beside Roan.
He looks at the map spread out on the table and says it's a good time.
“As the commander said, the movement of the monsters was unusual. ”
Fingertips point to a mountain range in the east-west of the tail region.
“Those who have been moving north are moving towards the mountains in the east and west. ”
“Are you sure you want to cross the mountain? ”
“Yes, I think so. ”
Keefe nods severely.
So is Roan.
‘I can't believe you were thinking of crossing a mountain. ’
The tail region is a perfect basin.
The mountain range blocking the east and west was not very high, but very rough.
Not even a mountain pass changed.
To get to other areas, you had to use the fields to the north or Lake Porsche to the south.
“Where's the mountain they're trying to climb? ”
The short question was, Kip took two photos of the Yasan mountains in the east and west.
It was far from the defensive line we have now built.
‘We cannot let them cross the mountain. ’
Monsters in the Tail Area are exterminated in the Tail Area.
That was Roan's plan.
‘We should lower our defenses to the south. ’
I'm thinking of squeezing the monsters away from the mountains.
“Change of plans. ”
Roan opens his mouth to the white seals.
“Lower the defensive ships we are building to the south and hit the monsters approaching from the east and west at once, destroying them. ”
Roan's orders continue.
“Send a dozen of your nobles to report the situation and move the camp to the south. ”
“Yes, I understand. ”
All the white seals bowed their heads and responded in one voice.
With both hands on the table, Roan reaches out his head.
The white artisans' gaze and Roan's gaze tangled together.
“The biggest battle of all time may be happening recently. Make sure everyone is prepared. ”
“Yes, I'll keep that in mind. ”
The whites nod, biting their teeth tightly.
It was open in the conference room.
* * *
Boom!
Baron George Ant throws the apple in his hand.
“Oh dear…..”
The scorn filled the tip of my tongue.
He submerges himself in a wooden bathtub and stares at the soldier who just posted his report.
“Say that again. ”
“Well, that's..."
The soldier stammers nervously.
“An Amaranth unit has come from Mediacis. Commander Roan wants us to move the defenses south.......”
When the horse goes on like that.
Boom!
Once again, the apple flew away.
George got up from the tub.
The bulging belly and the sagging thighs were revealed.
The women who were standing next to the bathtub approached and washed their clothes and put on a soft silk robe.
George picked up an apple.
“Roan. This guy's really excited. I'm excited.”
Disgusting face.
George spewed a nagging voice for a while.
“How long have you been setting up camp? You want me to drop the line? ”
The barracks were just starting to build.
After a long time, I wanted to spend a hot day with young maids who had melted into warm water and brought their hands.
‘Son of a bitch. If you say you won't follow orders here, you'll be pushing the dagger into the Reagate. ’
I had a nasty smile on my mouth.
George waves his hand at the soldier.
“Tell Amaranth's men who have brought the news that they understand. ”
“Yes? Oh, yes. I understand.”
The soldier nods, surprised, and soon leaves the barracks.
When George saw that, he snored.
“Hmph.”
Now that the order has come, I intend to move the camp.
But I didn't intend to move it right away.
‘Soldiers are too tired to build a camp. It's hard to move a camp right from here. ’
Of course, it was a good excuse.
What's gonna happen if I lose one of my defenses? ’
Horrible illusion.
George smiles strangely with an apology cut off.
“Huh-huh-huh. Trying to swing the nobles around on the subject of the commoners. Have a little trouble with that. ”
My eyes sank cold.
It was a really stupid idea and a stupid decision.
Thanks to this, the situation began to flow in an unexpected direction.
* * *
“Everyone's a mess, right? ”
Roan smiled bitterly, looking through the various documents.
Austin sighs briefly.
“Yes. Everyone is in the worst condition except for Prince Delf Bleak and his nobles. ”
At that point, Roan looks at Austin, putting away the documents.
“Bring women to the battlefield, bring clowns, and throw big and small parties together every day in luxurious barracks? ”
“Yes, it's all true. ”
Austin nods, smiling awkwardly.
Roan kicks his tongue with a stiff face.
“Everyone's lost their minds. ”
If I think about it, I want to make it cool at least once.
“How did you respond to the order? ”
“They were all very unpleasant, but they said they would follow orders. ”
“That's a relief. ”
Roan rises from his seat and shakes his head.
“Monsters will be rougher than before if they know the road to the mountain is blocked. Stay sharp. ”
“Yes, I will. ”
Austin bows his head and answers, leaving the conference room.
The rest of Roan sighs, tasting again.
I wrote it in my mouth because of the behavior of the nobles.
‘If you become a monarch in the future, you will use people with abilities rather than identity. ’
A peasant.
He's also from a very poor mountain.
That's why Roan was aware of the huge drawbacks of identity agents.
‘I will give everyone the same opportunity regardless of status. ’
A world where anyone can make their dreams come true.
That was the world that Roan dreamed of.
* * *
“Glug.”
A norc falls with the sound of blood boiling.
Roan looks around as he scampers Travis' spear.
Finished.
The hordes of monsters were wiped out.
“Collect the corpse of the warrior and take care of the wounded! ”
A resounding voice.
The Amaranth troops are about to take over the battlefield.
He looks up at the southern sky and exhales for a long time.
"Thanks to the lower defenses to the south, the monsters are wandering around lost. ’
Thanks to the complete blockage of the road to the mountains in the east and west.
‘At this rate, it would completely kill their breath.......’
When I thought about it.
Roan's brow frowns.
Beacon Mounds?
Beacon Mounds bloom at the east end.
Besides, it wasn't just any Beacon Mounds.
Two, three? ’
Not a single black smoke, three in a row.
It means it's that urgent.
Following Calian's tears, the entire eastern region was covered in Beacon Mounds.
“Commander! The Beacon Mounds are up! Three of them came up at the same time! ”
Austin runs late to find the Beacon Mounds.
Roan shakes his hand as he assesses the direction of the beacon.
‘This is the east.It's a Beacon Mound coming up from the east end. If it's the east end.......’
At that moment, a person's face came to my mind.
Baron George Ant! ’
George is in charge of the east end of the defense line.
Roan hurriedly climbs into the saddle.
“Looks like something happened to the eastern defense line. Amaranth's troops are on the move! ”
“Yes! I understand! ”
Austin replies coldly and sends a call to the squad members.
Flutter! Flutter!
The cavalry waves a small flag, and the men who are gathering the battlefield line up and line up.
Roan looks at the blooming beacon and grips the beacon tightly.
‘George Ant. What the hell have you done? ’
There was a red flame in my eyes.
