I am the Monarch

< Chapter 40 Amaranth >

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

Austin and several of his commanders found Roan's barracks to post a report and rigidly solidified them like a statue.

Surprise on his face was powerful.

On Roan's table, where their gaze is directed.

No, it was an enormous pile of plates, precisely.

"Ugh, a plate of food? '

The gaze returned to Roan beyond the plate.

Roan is still biting a loaf of bread the size of a palm of his hand.

'The one who said commanders should eat the same as regular soldiers.......'

'Rather, you ate much less than regular soldiers.......'

Roan was clearing out three or four meals, or at least three days' worth of food.

"My lord, are you all right?"

Austin asked with a cautious expression and voice.

Then Roan stood up smiling awkwardly.

"I made the training a little rough, and I got hungry."

It was somewhat true.

After a deep sleep, Roan had to shed enough blood before his eyes to satisfy Travis Chang's hunger.

Fortunately, the moment I grabbed Travis' spear, the energy in my body itself was greatly complimented.

The only problem was the extreme hunger that suddenly came upon me.

Unlike usual, I had no choice but to overeat.

"Is it the report?"

Roan asked with a expressionless expression.

"Yes? Oh, yes."

Austin gives out the paperwork that he was later prepared for.

It was a report investigating the Infect region and its surroundings.

Roan frowns, looking at the thicker documents than he thought.

I felt strongly that the work was unusual.

It's different.

"If you look at the report, you'll see….."

Austin and several of his commanders took a long breath with a mischievous look.

"This is terrible."

Austin's situation was briefed for a while.

As Roan listened to the story, he read the documents carefully.

The report lists the horrible and cruel things that Simon Rhynes and the shamans following him did.

"Not only in Infections, but also in many of the three neighboring villages."

Simon and the shamans took the good, innocent people of the kingdom and turned them into magic dolls alive.

The shamans didn't care enough to block the information, so they were able to hear the horrifying rumors.

Roan grips his teeth.

Red fury fills my throat.

However, he struggled to control his mind and exhaled for a long time.

"Report to the entire kingdom."

A simple command.

However, it was not an order that could be easily answered and fulfilled.

"Yes?"

The commanders, including Austin, asked with a surprised expression.

"Then the whole kingdom will be in chaos."

Otherwise, the foundation of the kingdom is shaken greatly by the succession war.

Under these circumstances, Simon's tyrannical actions could have led to the collapse of the Kingdom of Rhine, which was barely holding out.

Besides...

"You can also use your excuse to dispatch troops from the surrounding kingdom."

Still, the existence of shamans to powerful people was a horrific group of evil that must be subdued and executed.

The elite kingdoms and kingdoms who were aiming for the Hoshitham Lines Kingdom came together to give reason to attack the Rhine Kingdom.

Roan nods slowly.

I was able to fully understand Austin's concerns and the concerns of various commanders.

'But you can't hide this important fact.'

The people of the kingdom had a right to know.

Some of them will still believe and follow Simon.

People who will welcome Simon's troops with pairs when they visit.

'And in that state, it will become a magic doll.......'

You don't even know with a knife under your chin.

At least I wanted to stop it.

Roan's worries deepen.

Then.

"I don't think we need to take another invasion seriously."

Chris steps into the barracks with a low sinking voice.

His face is as hard as his voice.

With a short sigh, he reported what he had just heard.

"From the north came the Estonian Empire, and from the south came the SS Imperial Army."

Boom.

At that moment, everyone's eyes opened up as if they were greatly shocked.

Chris smiled bitterly.

"You shouldn't be so surprised already."

He pulls out a small note in his arms.

"The leader of the Estonian Empire is Duke Edwin Boissa's son, Mills Boissa. Prince Colum is the one who reached out to the SS Imperial Army."

Kugung.

Once again, there was a great shock.

The people who endangered the Kingdom of Rhine were outraged by the fact that they were royalty and nobles of the Kingdom of Rhine.

On the other hand, Roan was strangely calm.

'As expected.'

It was Roan who ordered Agence to scout near the border.

It was a twisted future, but it could have happened in the same or similar situation as the last time.

'In my last life, Column, the then king of the Gwangwang Dynasty, called upon the SS Kingdom for an army.'

The position and situation of the columns were different, but it was the same in the end, working with the Kingdom of DS.

However.

'The future with Mills Boysa is far ahead of me.'

In the case of Mills Boysa and his father, Duke Edwin Boysa, in his last life, he surrendered to Column as soon as the Second Prince Tommy Rhynes died.

Afterwards, Mills surrendered to the Estonian Empire and became a traitor.

'The surrender of Mills, which was then well versed in the Flamdor Manat Act, brought tremendous shock to the people of the Rhine Kingdom.'

I smiled at the old memories.

He took a deep breath and looked at Austin, Chris and many other commanders.

"Simon and shamans, plus Chris' report just now, spread the word across the kingdom."

"Yes, I understand."

There was no need to notice other nations in the courtyard where the Estonian Empire and the DS Kingdom invaded.

'Rather, if these rumors spread, you will have a good reason.'

A hero of the realm who fights against fierce shamans and invaders.

Roan's eyes gleam and glow.

Austin asked carefully.

"But what about the Estonian Empire in the north and the SS Empire in the south?"

"Hmm."

There was tears coming out of my eyes.

The Lancefield Territories have been tied up against Simon.

Moreover, Simon and the shamans were the first to subdue the work priorities.

Simon, the Berserker, was already making magic dolls of the common people of the kingdom.

'In just a little while, we will slaughter all living things we can see.'

I've already been through in my past life.

I could not let such a terrible thing happen again.

After all, Roan cannot face the Estonian Empire and the DS Imperial forces until he has subdued Simon.

Roan is also deeply troubled.

Swift, the local administrative officer who was still in the camp, speaks carefully.

"We can't completely stop the Estonian Empire and the SS Empire, but we can slow them down a little bit."

He said that, and there was a glimpse of expectation in his face.

"What's the method?"

Swift's answer was simple.

"The Black Line. No......."

I had a smile on my mouth.

"Leverage the Black Amaranth."

* * *

Woof! Woof! Bang!

A loud bang in the ear.

Every time, the wall stood still and trembled.

"Yes, sir! At this rate, the gates will be breached soon!"

"At this rate, defending the walls....... Ugh."

The sound of the guards' urgent voices pierces into your ears.

Vail, the defender of Brimpton Castle, is a small but sturdy fortress.

'Brimpton is one of the fortresses in the southern part of the kingdom. If this place is breached, the King will also be in danger to Mills!'

It was a castle I had to protect at all costs.

His gaze is down the wall.

In the Rhine Kingdom, rare green flags and armor spread out like years.

Prince Column! The throne was so coveted! Bringing foreigners into the succession war! '

I was filled with a smooth and angry heart.

The green forces beneath the walls were soldiers from the SS royal army, allied with the Three Prince Column Lines.

I thought about it, but I wanted to fight until the end with my life on the line.

'The Lord entrusted it to us.......'

I wanted to meet Roan's expectations.

But...

'If we stay here any longer, we will also be harmed by the innocent.'

Besides...

'It is not the outcome the Lord wishes.'

Thanks to you, I didn't have much to worry about.

Vail lets out a long breath and shouts with a crooked face.

"Walk white! I surrender!"

Conditional surrender.

The condition, of course, was the safety of the citizens of Brimpton.

"Grrrgh. Commander!"

"Grrrgh."

The guards who fought to the end burst into tears.

Hot tears flowed from my cheeks.

Vail struggles to hold back his tears and shouts in a solemn voice.

"Don't cry! We have not lost, nor have we given up!"

He straightens his chest.

"Our duty is not to protect Brimpton Castle, but to protect the people of Brimpton."

The end of my voice trembles.

"This is the only way to protect the saints."

The tears that I endured burst out.

The wall, which had just been fought, was filled with only crying instead of shouting and hissing.

Phew! Phew!

Along with the sound of the trumpet, Column Lines and Lucan Dies appear with their wide open gates.

What a magnificent and arrogant appearance.

After that, the Column soldiers and the SS royal army had nowhere to be arrogant.

At that moment, the column and Lucan, which were moving ahead, gently pause, pulling at the wheel.

The arrogant, cold gaze fell to the floor.

End of the line of sight.

There was Vail.

"Earl Roan Lancefield's departure from the Rhine Kingdom, Vail, greets Prince Column Rhine."

Vail suddenly brings the guards down and kneels on one knee.

Column gazes at the guards of Brimpton Castle with a cold gaze while riding his horse.

"How dare you point a sword at the Rhine royal family? It's all the same to you."

The sound of the scream resounded.

Brimpton's people, gathered around him, swallowed their thirsty expressions.

Vail raises his head and looks straight at the column.

It was a dressing, but not as strong as it looked.

He asked again in a clear and powerful voice.

"Is Prince Column pointing his sword at King Simon Rhynes already?"

"Well, what! I am at war with the throne! It's fair!"

The column was embarrassed and yelled.

Vail bows his head with a blurry smile.

"We've also just been in the succession war."

Short, bold answers.

"Yi, Yi......."

The column changed its teeth with a furious expression without being able to speak.

The watcher smiles brightly and shakes his hand.

"Prince Column. The prince should step back and rest. I'll take it from here."

A polite but somewhat arrogant tone.

The column burst.

"Hmph. Hmph. Okay, I'll do that."

I wasn't afraid to say no, but I couldn't say no.

'Since we have decided to hand over Brimpton Castle to the Kingdom of Dies.......'

Now the owner of this castle is not the Kingdom of Rhine, but the Kingdom of Dies, and now it is Lucan, not Column.

However, the people of Vail, the defenders and Brimpton Castle, who didn't know about this, only looked down at the strange conversations between Column and Lucan.

Meanwhile, the columns, as well as his neighbours, swiftly kicked the horses to the center of the castle.

"Prince, where are you going......."

As Vail gives you a curious look, Lucan suddenly raises his right hand with the fanatic furnace.

"Hahahaha!"

The saints frowned with a loud laugh.

Lucan shouts indifferently at the soldiers under his command.

"The battle is over! It's time to start the festival!"

The soldiers wearing green armor have red faces.

I felt very excited.

And at that moment, Lukan gives a terrible command.

"Enjoy!"

At the end of the sentence, the royal soldiers of the SS clamor.

"Waaaahhhh!"

They scattered to the sides of the road and acted freely, regardless of the young and old.

"Ugh!"

"Come on, come on!"

"Let go of me!"

Brimpton Castle was filled with the sharp screams of women in an instant.

"What the..."

The Vail and the guards opened their mouths to the horrifying sights unfolding before their eyes.

Meanwhile, the imperial army of DS has become even more violent.

Soldiers raided the Sanctuary and plundered the property at will.

In the process, the innocent civilians lost their lives.

"You bastards!!!"

Finally, Vail gets up from his seat screaming again.

The same goes for the guards.

They stare at the Lucans and the SS royal army with bloodshot eyes.

"You bastards! Stop this right now! They are just ordinary saints who have done nothing wrong!"

In response, Lucan bursts into laughter.

"Funny guy. Guilty or not, it doesn't matter."

A fierce glance sweeps through Vail's body.

"Listen up."

Cold voice.

"Winner takes all. This is how our kingdom of DS works."

I smiled arrogantly.

Vail couldn't take it anymore.

"Die!"

He draws his sword from his waist and rushes toward Lukan.

"Even if you die, you will die by the throat!" '

There is a spark in Vale's eyes.

His sword slashes Lukan's throat in no time.

No, I thought it was a cut.

But the reality is.

"Huh?!"

Vail opens his eyes wide, looking at his right arm, which had been cut clean off underneath his elbow.

His gaze was naturally directed at Lukan.

Lucan, who was originally empty-handed, held a sword.

He laughed more brightly and whispered in a small voice.

"You'd be lucky to know he died early."

mocking eyes.

The Lucan's sword has split the space.

"Ugh."

Vail felt his throat getting cold and hot.

At the same time, the world slanted into darkness.

Lucan's voice is very blurry in your ears.

"Our festival is just beginning."

That was the end.

Vail will never hear, see, or speak again.

Death.

His neck and body fall to the ground apart.

Lukan smiles and looks around.

Hell.

Wherever I could see, hell opened up.

No, actually, only the people of Brimpton had a hell of a world out there.

Lukan kicks the horse in the belly, pulling the horse.

"Can I have some fun?"

My red lips glowed with lust.

After that day, rumors started spreading in the Rhine Kingdom that I didn't want to believe.

Rumors started spreading from the north, south, west to west.

< The Estia Imperial Army has invaded! >

< The SS Imperial Army has invaded! >

< King Simon Rhynes has teamed up with the shamans! >

The rumors were very detailed.

In the name of Roan Lancefield, there was soon a formal notice throughout the kingdom.

< The Estonian Imperial forces led by Mills Boysa are sweeping the north of the kingdom! >

< Column Lines and Lucan Dies join hands to ravage the southern kingdoms! >

< Simon Lines is kidnapping the Kingdom with shamans and turning them into shaman dolls! >

The entire Rhine Kingdom was swarmed with three rumors:

"The people of the northern kingdoms have been deprived of all food and wealth by the Estonian Empire!"

"That's better! Southern villagers are short of taking all their belongings from the SS Imperial Army, so women are being plundered and men are getting their limbs cut off!"

"What about the people of the Western Kingdom over there? His Majesty, Simon and the shamans, have attacked dozens of villages and castles, turning thousands of royal people into puppets."

Unbelievable rumors, no news.

The fury of the people of the Rhine Kingdom has reached its limit.

Among them, the walk of one of the heroes softened their anger.

< Earl Roan Lancefield and the Lancefield Territories are winning battles against Guangzhou Simon and the shamans. >

< Earl Roan Lancefield ordered Black Amaranth members to ambush and disrupt the rear of the Estonian Empire in the north and the SS Imperial forces in the south. >

< Earl Lancefield relieves food and wealth to take care of the troubled kingdoms. >

Only Roan and Earl Lancefield were fighting for the people of the kingdom in the chaos throughout the kingdom.

"Only Earl Roan Lancefield!"

"Yes! I hope Earl Lancefield can clean up all this mess!" "

"Earl Lancefield is as reliable as he gets!"

Throughout the world, the voice of reverence and reverence rises.

Meanwhile, a group of six young men and women crossed the Rhine Kingdom and headed west into the Infections region.

Their destination is Roan Lancefield's camp.

What are they?

Just a few months ago, they were the young nobles who would lead the Rhine Kingdom and were considered talented survivors of 12-Hashling.

It was still Baron Wiggins who led them.

The sheet lit up both eyes looking up at the sunset western sky.

'Definitely.......'

Eyes of determination.

'I need to see Earl Roan Lancefield.'

He covers his left chest with his right hand.

A hard object was touched inside the palm of my hand.

Things you must deliver to Roan.

It was in the seat's arms now.
