I am the Monarch

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

“Hmm.”

Simon swallows his moaning.

The face that had a joyful and joyful aura suddenly darkened.

“More monsters will come out than ever before? ”

“Yes, according to the Intelligence Base analysis, it will increase by five times. ”

Roan calmly replies.

I knew that Final Exodus would last the last three days thanks to the memory of my last life.

It wasn't hard to manipulate the information to convince Simon.

“Can you stop it? ”

Quick question.

Roan nods.

“No problem.”

It was true.

In case you didn't know it, you were already thoroughly prepared when you knew that Final Exodus would happen.

It wasn't the tail region that Roan was worried about.

“You must send a messenger to another region. ”

“Yes, you should. ”

Simon nods, smiling faintly.

He was not the only tail area north of Lake Porsche.

Even for the various nobles who were his supporters and base, it was necessary to bring this to light quickly.

But that wasn't what Roan wanted.

He breathes for a moment, then carefully speaks out.

“We need to send a messenger to Prince 2 and Prince 3. ”

“Hmm?"

Simon frowns in one eye.

Roan quickly backed off.

“You two princes will think the monsters are done. And naturally, the defenses would be sloppy, too. In a situation like this, five times as many monsters as usual would be wiped out by the entire region of Lake Porsche.

D. Even the rest of the kingdom will suffer great harm. ”

“Hmm.”

Simon swallows his moaning.

"Does it matter if you're competing for the throne? ’

I knew that Roan was a commander of the commoners and was interested in the treatment and living of the people of the kingdom.

However, I did not expect to be worried about their comfort even in such an important situation.

‘Here, if Tommy and Column are not responding well and are greatly beaten, I have the advantage. ’

It was true that Simon was more open-minded about his identity than the average royal or noble.

But he was a great ambitious man before that.

To ascend to the throne, he was a rather cruel and despicable man.

‘But there's no need to offend Roan here. ’

Roan's abilities were exceptional.

Until he ascended to the throne, he was a talented person to take with him.

That's why he didn't say much when he cut George's throat.

Simon smiles faintly, removing the discomfort.

“I see. I'll send word to both of my brothers immediately. ”

“Thank you."

He doesn't notice Simon's expression as he keeps his head down.

“Well, I'll be going now. ”

I had a lot to do with Final Exodus in front of me.

Roan walks out of the office in a courtesy.

“Whew.”

Simon sighs a long time.

Ralph Tynes, the escort knight who was sitting behind him, asked in a small voice.

“Are you sure you want to send a messenger? ”

Simon snorts.

“Hmph. Can't do that. It's a great opportunity for me. Just pretend you're sending a messenger because you have to deceive Roan's eyes. ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

Ralph bows his head and answers, leaving the Oval Office.

Simon remains alone, tucking his chin and worrying.

‘Roan. Obviously he has great insight and ability and the trust of his subordinates. And he's upright and kind and loves the people of the kingdom. But.......’

Such a personality was suitable for the pacifist.

‘We need to be a little less formal. ’

If not, I would have gone at the end and stood at the convergence with myself.

Simon closes his eyes.

‘Roan. At least stay with me until I become king. ’

And then what?

It was something only Simon could know.

* * *

“So, you believe without a doubt? ”

“Yes, I have complete confidence in myself. ”

A clean-looking young man and a middle-aged man spoke in a small voice.

The young man was the Three Princes of the Rhine Kingdom, and the middle-aged man was surprisingly Earl Jonathan Chase, one of the henchmen of the Two Princes Tommy Rhines.

“Tommy pretends to be all smart, and people are too lazy. Hahaha.”

“If it wasn't for Duke Edwin Boissa, he would have already dropped out of the throne competition. ”

Jonathan smiles bitterly at the tail of his mouth.

His eyes were clearly smiling, but I felt cold somewhere.

Maybe Tommy can't even imagine.

Jonathan, who had offered himself an alliance with the Three Prince Columns, was actually an underling of the column.

“My prince.”

Jonathan grimaces.

The column's eyes sparkled.

“Do you have an idea? ”

He knew Jonathan was only squinting when he had a brilliant plan.

Jonathan nods slowly.

“There are two spies in Prince 1st's camp. ”

“I know that. ”

“We have two people on our side. ”

“Yes.”

The column nods, thinking about the faces of the nobles who embraced it.

Jonathan's voice grows more stealthy.

“Let us send them a letter so that the noble spies of the Second Sons may slip away. ”

“Oh!”

The column burst with low elasticity.

Jonathan's words continue.

“Once word of the noble spies reaches Prince 1st's ears, he will not stand by. ”

“That's right. I'll go straight to their throats. ”

The column said that Jonathan's shimmering smile became deeper.

“The noble spies of the Second Prince will not sit idly by. ”

“Make two factions fight each other? ”

“Yes. We sit around and watch the fights. ”

A lump flows out.

The column slapped the knee with its right hand.

“Very well. Do it now. ”

“Yes! Leave it to me. ”

Jonathan bows his head deeply.

The cold eyes sparked with the flames of desire.

‘The next king will be Prince 3. ’

It didn't matter about my abilities or my character.

Of the three princes, the only one who could do what he wanted was the column.

Jonathan may be the most ambitious of the nobles of the Rhine Kingdom.

No, maybe his ambition was similar to Simon's.

* * *

The day when the moon in the night sky was blue.

Final exodus has begun.

The first day really reminded me of hell.

Monsters protruding out of the lake with fear.

They rushed like crazy, excited, or captivated by some fear.

However, the northern shore of Lake Porsche has prepared the bay thanks to Roan.

Arrows rain over the heads of the monsters that landed on the lake.

At the same time, a fire broke out at their feet.

This was not the end.

Dozens and hundreds of barrels of oil rose above Lake Porsche.

Monsters who were trying to get out of the water were stuck on their feet, unable to move freely.

And the flaming spears flew over it.

Kwakwang!

Along with the thunderclap, the surface of Lake Foucane became a sea of fire.

Perfect defensive posture.

However, over time, the monsters pouring out of Lake Foucane pushed their defenses further inland.

The number of monsters pouring out was enormous.

Roan didn't go head-to-head with them because he was overwhelmed.

Repeatedly striking and falling, you lure a swarm of excited monsters into a trap and troop node.

Thanks to this, the swarms of monsters have fallen into ambushes and traps without changing their resistance.

“Amaranth Corps! ”

“Open the gate! ”

The guards guarding the Southern Gate of Mediah scream loudly.

Because I found an army of Amaranth on the southern edge of the field.

Indeed, there was a Roan in front of them.

“Amaranth! Amaranth! ”

“Roan! Roan! ”

Amaranth's troops head to the base in the center of the village, behind the pouring cheer.

Why Roan and Amaranth's troops appeared at the headquarters, where monsters were supposed to be on the front lines.

It was Simon's call.

What brings you here so suddenly? ’

Roan tilts his head toward the center of the headquarters.

Even though he was keeping the monsters out of the way, it wasn't a situation that allowed him to relax.

That's why I still returned to the headquarters with only two Caucasians left on the front line.

“Rest and personal maintenance. ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

After giving the orders to the squads, Roan heads for Simon's office.

It was my first visit since I came to report on the Final Exodus case a few days ago.

“Hmm. Finally. ”

Simon raises his hand in a stiff look.

‘This must be pretty serious.......’

Roan takes a deep breath, looking at Simon's face.

Normally, Simon was greedy and unruly.

I've never seen a stiff face like this.

“I've been summoned. ”

Roan stands in front of Simon and takes his orders.

Simon pops out a few blank sheets of paper.

“Read it. ”

Roan slowly reads what was written on the paper.

“Hmm.”

There was a tear in my eyes.

‘What the…..’

The paper was a sort of letter.

It was sent by Baron Elton Court, who was in charge of the northern border.

"Baron Luke Eiffe and Baron Mito Posis the two princes' spies......."

Surprisingly, Elton wrote to reveal the identity of the noble spies planted by the Second Prince Tommy Rhine.

In addition, I have attached evidence that they are communicating with Prince II.

“What do you think? ”

Simon folds his hands and lowers his head slightly.

I couldn't see his face, but his voice was loud and heavy as if it were going to explode right away.

“I don't know…"

Roan blurs.

It wasn't because I wasn't sure if Elton's letter was true or not.

‘Just two days ago, the agency was able to identify the mole on the two princes' side. ’

The names of the spies Chris confirmed were Baron Luke Eif and Baron Mito Posis.

It matched Elton's letter exactly.

But here's the thing.

"Baron Elton Court is also a known mole of the Three Princes. ’

A mole from the Three Princes has uncovered the identity of a mole from the Two Princes.

Roan thought there might be some intention to this.

‘Moreover, the hidden spy on Prince 3rd's side has yet to be revealed. ’

According to Agence's analysis, there should be one more.

I couldn't make a decision for these reasons.

“It seems true to me. ”

Simon's voice.

It was still rough and heavy.

Roan replies, putting down the paper.

“I guess I'll just have to find out. ”

First, he reacted cautiously.

One of Simon's brows twists.

“Really? Would you like to talk to her yourself? ”

Then you swing your right hand.

Ralph Tynes, who was standing in the back, stepped back and brought a familiar middle-aged man from inside the office.

‘Baron Elton Court. ’

The man with the slightly nervous expression was the main character who sent the letter and was defending the town to the north by the command of Roan.

Simon stands up, jabbering.

“Roan. Ask me if you have any questions. As a result if this letter turns out to be true.......”

A bloodshot flame blooms in his eyes.

“I'll take Luke and Mito's head myself. ”

Suddenly, I felt like living a horrible life.

Roan quickly picks a shallow breath and blinks slowly.

‘Baron Elton Court is also a spy. ’

I was going to use this opportunity to find out who the noble spy of the 3rd Prince is still hiding his tail.

To do that, we needed to protect Luke and Mito for a while.

"There is no funnier being than a spy who has been exposed. ’

Roan scowls at Elton, his lips distorted.

“Baron Court. How did you know they were communicating with other princes? ”

“That's.......”

Elton blurred his words for a moment, and soon the answer continued.

“I learned that by following your orders, I and Baron Luke Eif began to defend villages on the northern border. I saw something strange when I was close together. ”

“What do you mean, specifically? ”

“Baron Mito Posis and I used to write to each other, and sometimes people would come from outside the tails. ”

Half were true, half were false.

Luke and Mito never exchanged letters.

It's just that Tommy, the Second Prince, has been to see Luke a few times.

Agents and intelligence agencies didn't miss it right away, revealing that Mito Posis is another noble spy hiding in a similar situation.

Roan, who had already known all the facts, asked with a slightly calm expression.

“Here is an attachment to the letter that Prince II and Baron Luke Eif exchanged with each other. How did you acquire this? ”

“I was patrolling the area, and I found a suspicious man, and I arrested him, and I found that in my arms. ”

This was an obvious lie.

‘Actually, Earl Jonandan Chase sent me away. ’

Elton smiled deeply.

After that, Roan asks meticulous questions.

At that time, Elton replied with confidence without hesitation.

It's like preparing in advance and memorizing the moon.

Then.

Boom!

Simon, who was watching, slaps the table.

His face is running red.

“Roan, there's nothing more to figure out! ”

The end of my voice trembles.

Forcibly enduring anger.

“I'll cut the throats of these scumbags right now! ”

There was a storm.

‘Okay, got it. That's it.'

Elton calls for inner joy.

But this was not enough.

‘Even Baron Iphev and Baron Posis should take this to heart. ’

Otherwise, there was a possibility that things would get too straightforward.

‘If the prince summons them to the base and captures them, it will be over. ’

That was not what Elton wanted, nor the Three Prince Columns.

‘We should mix swords and fight each other. Hehe.’

It was fun just thinking about it.

At that time, Roan, who was silent, said in a calm voice.

“Not available.”

At that moment, the atmosphere that was cold was frozen cold.

Simon's expression distorts with anger.

“What did you just say? ”

“Prince, think of your predecessors. Five times more monsters are pouring out than usual. Please wait until the end of the Punitive Battle. ”

Roan looks him straight in the eye.

"If we get rid of them now, we won't be able to find the mole for Prince Three. ’

The moment the heads of the two prince spies are cut off, all the other spies will be dead.

“If the Baron of Eif and the Baron of Posis rebel aggressively, their forces may be dispersed. Eventually, you may even try to subdue monsters. ”

“Hmm.”

Simon swallows his brow with an uncomfortable look.

I didn't like the fact that I had to wait without executing the traitors who had served their side immediately.

However, Roan's words were justified in many ways.

"Even if we catch Luke and Mito, their territorial forces may revolt….."

As Simon clears his rage, Roan wedges.

“Four days!"

“....... ”

“In exactly four days' time, I'll end the punitive war. ”

Roan's expression was splendid.

Final Exodus is two days away.

Spend another day cleaning up the leftovers, and another day cleaning up the battlefield will end the punitive war.

“Good, Roan. I'll do as you say. Instead…..”

Rrrrgh.

You hear this grinding sound.

“I won't kill them gently. ”

Elton, who was watching, frowns slightly.

"Damn it! That son of a bitch! ’

His gaze turned towards Roan.

Plans that had gone to the brink of success had become obsolete.

"A bird that really didn't help at all….."

When I thought about it.

Roan smiles bitterly and looks at Elton.

“Baron Court, please look into Baron Luke Eif's behavior as we speak. ”

Elton quickly nods, hiding his colors.

“I see. Let's take a closer look at his men. ”

Elton nods with a resolute expression.

An abomination.

Roan bites his lower lip slightly.

‘As soon as possible, we need to find the other noble spies on Prince 3's side. ’

The need to sweep agencies and informants.

There was only four days left.

‘Then take care of Luke, Mito, Elton and the other one at the same time. ’

Roan's eyes gleam and glow.

A series of complex plans came into my mind.
