I am the Monarch

< Chapter 24 Entrance >

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

The king was also exposed to a rumor about Mills.

< The three princes recommended the rebel insurgents formed. >

After entering the Baron Court, Elton's head was given to Ben with all the authority and property of the territory.

The people of Milr did not believe this rumor.

Because it was so pointless.

However, the rumors came true, not false, as two factions from the two princes, Tommy Lines and Column Lines, gathered around Mill Castle to gather troops and supply war supplies.

In the meantime, of course, Prince Simon's camp was very quiet and calm, raising questions for a lot of people.

“It's a shame no matter how much I think about it. ”

Birch of Thio Luin has finished his tastes.

Simon Rhys smiles bitterly.

“I can't help it. His Majesty's orders. ”

After a short sigh, he looks at Roan.

“Baron Tail. I trust only you. ”

“Yes, I will do my best. ”

Roan nods, smiling faintly.

Now, Roan, Simon and Thio were chatting in a small garden just outside the palace.

Unlike Tommy and Column, who are busy moving, they are already ready to march.

Because I heard about the rebellion in Elton Court ten days earlier than anyone else.

If King Denny Von Rhynes had not given the order to march at the same time, he would have already marched north with his troops two days ago.

“Whew.”

Simon sighs again as if regretting.

‘Even so, we can't give march orders to the nobles near Baron Court. ’

Apart from the orders issued by Denny III, we were unable to move the nobleman's soldiers around under any circumstance.

‘If you do, the nobles behind Tommy and Column may invade empty territory.......’

The aftermath of the monster subjugation in a series of wars against the Easthells has brought bandits to a halt.

In this situation, if you move the territorial army carelessly, the nobles supporting you could lose ground.

‘Because of Tommy and Column, the nobles aren't moving around. ’

In the end, the three princes recommended by Denny III, Roan, Mills and Chester, were forced to put down the rebellion.

“Whew.”

Simon sighs once more at the complex emotions.

Roan watches him quietly, whispering in a small voice.

“My prince.”

“Huh?"

“There may be another reason for His Majesty to leave you three princes in the royal family, excluding you from the rebellion. ”

Very cautious attitude.

If I groaned, I was worried about my three sons, and it could sound like he was lying.

Fortunately, Simon was able to keep track of Roan's words and thoughts.

“I know. There's gonna be a hell of a fight here. ”

He grins faintly and grabs Roan's shoulder.

“Don't worry about it here. I'll take care of it. ”

“Yes, always be careful. ”

Roan bows slightly.

Simon looks at it for a moment and slowly wakes up.

“Birdie Louie. Shall we get back to it? ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

Theo quickly rises up and inspects the weapon.

After that, Roan got up from his seat.

“We won't have time to talk at the ceremony tomorrow. ”

Simon grabs Roan's sheep shoulder.

My eyes were hot.

“Come back safe. They'll be waiting for you in the palace. ”

“Yes. I will return with the neck of Elton. ”

Roan took up a short ordinance.

Simon nods, smiling brightly.

“You're so trustworthy. ”

I meant it.

Mills was far more reliable than the sons of the nobles who call themselves Chestnuts.

Simon taps Roan on the shoulder a few times and takes a step out of the garden.

After a brief glance, Theo quickly began to walk ahead.

Roan stays in the garden and looks back at the two of you.

‘If you can control your anger, you must be a great talent. ’

An honest assessment of Simon.

However, once angry, it was a big problem to lose your mind and rush.

Roan hasn't figured out Simon's secret yet.

Because of that.

"I'm not sure Prince Simon is fit for the next great king. ’

Of course, there was something vague about Roan's position.

‘Will I really become a monarch.......’

Being noble and being king were two different things.

Roan clenches his fist.

‘Nothing is impossible. ’

Now, it was a goal that seems far away, but if we move forward one step, we can certainly achieve it.

Besides...

‘There are a lot more ways to be a king than to be noble, to say the least. ’

There was also a way to rebel and crown like Elton.

‘If you do it carelessly, it is likely that your throat will be cut. ’

Roan smiles bitterly.

A chilly breeze rises from the north.

‘When winter approaches…..’

It's a bad season to be at war.

‘We need to get this over with as soon as possible. ’

I was going to fight the rebellion and return to the baron Tail before winter began.

‘There you will have spring. ’

It was not just the spring as a season.

Spring of Life.

Roan is now ready to bloom.

* * *

“It's been a while. How have you been? ”

“Shut up. We don't greet each other, do we? ”

One voice is round and one voice stands still.

But both eyes were cold and sharp.

In the dark room, the two young men sat facing each other with a small table in the middle.

The young man who asked me to greet him first burst into laughter.

“Chester. You still have that personality. ”

“Shut up, Mills. You're still pretending to be friendly, pretending to be nice. ”

The identity of two young men.

They were Mills Boysa and Chester Cowan, who were chosen to be rebels for Tommy Lines and Column Lines respectively.

Mills frowns slightly.

“Pretending to be nice. I'm disappointed to hear you say that. How's Charlie? ”

It seemed to greet him gently, but his eyes were still cold and sharp.

At that moment, Chester's face hardened.

“If you speak his name one more time, then I will have your head. ”

There was no life.

I feel like I'm suffocating.

Nevertheless, Mills' expression was very relaxed.

“Oh, sorry. This is my fault. ”

He raises his hand and smiles nervously.

Chester still stares at Mills with a stiff face.

Mills glances at it quietly, and once more bursts into laughter.

“Hehe. Don't stare at me like that. We met today to help each other. ”

“Hmm.”

Chester shed a low saliva.

He also knew the purpose of today's meeting.

‘Otherwise, there's no reason to meet this disgusting bastard. ’

Chester gripped his teeth.

Mills clasps his fingers as he looks at it.

“Prince Simon has a major in the monster subjugation last time. Thanks to you, we're one step closer to Grand Duke Grain than Prince Tommy or Prince Column ever will be. ”

He supports his chin with his clasped hands.

“It means there's no turning back from our side. Plus…..”

Mills' eyes flash with a fierce glow.

“You and I are children of the royal Rhine aristocrats, and we are on our way to victory at the prestigious Tron Academy. If we get beaten up by a guy who was a commoner a while back... oh, I really think

Wouldn't that be awful? ”

Chester did not react recklessly.

He wasn't as articulate as Mills.

“I mean, at least the two of us can work together while we get to Baron Court. ”

Then Chester opened his mouth tightly.

“After we get close to Baron Court, we're on our own? ”

“Of course.”

Mills nods lightly.

Chester looks at Mills with calm eyes.

Not a bad offer.

‘Thought I'd shake hands with Roan Tail and get rid of him, Mills...'

That was not allowed by pride.

Roan's skills were heard from his father, Duke Reese Cowan, and many nobles to sit in his ears, but he could not be recognized as a rival.

"You cheeky bastard….."

How dare you try to side with yourself, who is a nobleman and the disciple of a nobleman.

It was unacceptable.

‘Maybe that's the same thing with Mills. ’

That's why he would have reached out to himself, putting aside the situation that could have been a little more advantageous.

Chester nods.

“Fine. I'll do as you say. ”

“That's Chester. ”

Mills smiles brightly and unwraps her fingers.

He took a picture of the table with his finger and was a hind horse.

“Let's make a plan now. ”

Chester nods instead of answering.

So the conversation in the locker room continued endlessly.

The dark space was filled with only two voices.

No, there was one other sound that was very small and unpleasant, but no one cared.

Chop, chop! Chop!

* * *

The trip was spectacular.

I had to.

This trip was neither a monster subjugation nor a war against the enemy.

Rebellion.

The weight of the word was different.

Denny von Rhys gave Roan, Mills and Chester daggers with the king's seal on them, respectively.

It symbolizes the authority of the king, which means that the rebellion will be put on a great mission and ensure its authority.

As soon as Roan, Mills and Chester stepped in, it also meant that even King Denny III could not command or give orders.

Boooooo!

The horn rings.

Bang! Bang! Dong!

The majestic drum sounds followed by the shaking of heaven and earth.

Roan, Mills and Chester climb on their horses and step outside the gates in the cheer of the saints.

In the open, wide field, each legion sits.

That number reached 10,000 and a total of 30,000.

The combined forces of Elton's territory with the forces of the late adopted Baron Gary Leonard were only about 10,000. It was truly a great army.

“Well, I wish you the best of luck. ”

Mills smiles brightly and lowers his head slightly.

Chester glances at Roan with a cold look and heads to his regiment.

Roan takes a short ordinance, smiling bitterly at the awkward and cold atmosphere.

“See you at Baron Court. ”

Soft voice.

But no answer came back.

Boooooo!

Shortly after, Mills and Chester begin marching with the sound of the trumpet.

They used different pathways, but the direction of movement was the same.

Mills and Chester chose north-west rather than north-north.

“As expected.”

Austin whispers in a low voice as he approaches.

Roan nods, looking at the farther troops.

“You'd think the nobles of the territory to the north would be hampered. ”

The king was as powerful as Simon, whose lands lie to the north, centered on Castle Mill.

Especially after Simon was awarded the last time he was served by the Duke of Iphef and the Duke of Posis, the power in the north became very tight and strong.

Mills and Chester were concerned that the nobles supporting Simon might try to grab hold of their ankles or slow down their march, so they decided to make their way to the Northwest, where their breath could reach.

‘You can say it's the right decision. ’

In fact, Simon had a plan to slow down their advance at a level that was not too obvious when Mills and Chester entered their power.

Roan smiles bitterly.

‘That would be the same for Mills and Chester. ’

On the contrary, the problem with Roan was more serious.

‘Because to the south of Prince Court is Prince Tommy and Prince Column's dominion. ’

The two princes' supporters were seated as if they were protecting the baron of Court.

There was nowhere to run.

No, I had to.

‘Then we have to go back a tremendous distance. ’

It's such a troublesome situation.

In fact, Simon and Thio were also taking the situation quite seriously.

Nevertheless, Roan's expression was very relaxed and bold.

He tugs at the horse and stands in front of the troops.

It was a group of insurgents formed by borrowing a portion of Simon and Thio's troops from Amaranth's troops.

“We march north! ”

It was probably a much faster path than it was moving northwest.

Roan sends a beep with his right hand.

Austin, who was watching, shouted.

“Tail Squad! Jean! ”

A resounding voice.

At the same time, the trumpet sounds.

Phew! Phew!

My heart jumped on its own.

Blood flows rapidly and my face is red.

Roan kicks his horse to the front of the platoon.

< Tail Corps. >

Troops were pulverized with the full name of the Resistance.

Next to it.

< Roan tail. >

General Roan, the leader and commander of the Resistance, flared.

< Amaranth Corps. >

A squadron of Amaranth troops, the heart of the troops, is blown by the northern winds.

Roan mutters in a small voice, going up against the cool northwind that blows through his armor.

“Glorious light will be with us on our path. ”

* * *

“What? Are you sure? ”

“I'm sure. How many times have these soldiers been chasing the Tail Army?" ”

Mills frowned at the deputy's report.

He touches his chin with his fingertips and is troubled.

You're moving north-northeast, not north-north? ’

I couldn't understand.

North-northeast direction slightly away from the Baron Court.

To avoid the mountain range south of Count Court? ’

But Mills shakes her head.

The mountain range extends along the southern border of the territory, but it is not too rough to cross.

Is it to avoid the forces that are advancing towards you, too? ’

It was the most likely hypothesis

But even then there was a question.

‘Even so, I turned east too quickly. ’

Advancing north as far as possible and then east was a much more advantageous route than now.

What other schemes are you up to? ’

The skills and actions of Roan that have been coming in couldn't have caused any harm for no reason.

Mills re-sealed the report letter that the deputy gave him.

“Take this to the royal highway. ”

It was my intention to leave the reason for Roan's elusive march to the other nobles left in the royal family.

‘I march on Baron Court as soon as possible. ’

He knew exactly what he needed to focus on.

The deputy carefully handed over the letter and put it in his chest.

“I'll be sure to pass it on. ”

He leans back, his head slightly lowered.

The deputy's appearance disappeared in no time.

‘Roan Tail.......’

Mills raises her head slightly and looks up at the sky.

“Whew.”

A short sigh came out.

I felt frustrated for no reason.

When Mills was looking up at the sky, there was a man looking down at the earth for a similar reason.

"North-northeast direction......."

A frowny face that you don't understand.

He was Chester who had just heard the direction of Roan's march from the former soldiers.

‘I will leave the matter to the nobles who remain in the royal family. ’

Chester also decided to resign to the royal family for Roan's strange march.

He only intended to focus on marching on the Baron Court as soon as possible, like Mills.

A little distance from each other, Mills and Chester mutter the same words as fate.

“Roan Tail. There's nothing you can do so far away from the Baron Court. ”

Is that so?

It was the only thing Roan knew.
