I am the Monarch

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

"Queeeek. Glug!"

"Queek!"

The battlefield is full of dense smoke, filled with the foundations of monsters.

The Caucasians of the Lancefield Corps scrutinized the battlefield and found and slaughtered any living or dead monsters.

The plan was to prevent monsters in the Grain Mountains from crossing Longport Castle and entering the center of the kingdom in the event that the kingdoms of the North and South Lines were established in the South and North.

'I don't think I can take care of monsters anymore.'

Roan stands in the middle of the battlefield and exhales for a long time.

Around him were Austin, Pills, Harrison and Brian, who fought fiercely together.

Everyone looked a little tired, but no one was badly hurt.

"That's amazing."

"Leading only 5,000 troops and crushing tens of thousands of monsters."

"You know what? All we did was deal with the monsters running away."

The Lancefield troops, who were organizing the battlefield, stick their tongues out at Roan and four of the other merchants.

"I'm glad they're on our side."

"Of course. I'm not afraid of anyone with my lord and generals."

"I was worried that the other side and the North were the only enemies......."

"There's no need for that."

The soldiers take a long breath and smile.

The anxiety about what remained in my mind disappeared as if I had washed away.

In addition, my strength, which had been exhausted by repeated battles, felt like it was recovering quickly.

Roan smiles faintly at the soldiers around him.

'Everything is going as Ian planned.'

It was Ian's operation that caused him, Austin, Pills, Harrison, and Brian to attempt a somewhat excessive attack.

Ian is determined to boost his morale through this battle.

Trying to blow away the nervousness and anxiety that was trying to hide through the overwhelming force of Roan and his commanders.

Of course, Ian did not order a blunt attack.

After considering the full force level of Roan, the four longevity men, and the 5,000 Taoists, he taught us various advances and techniques to use features to effectively combat the monster army.

Ian made a plan under the impression that he had enough chances.

The result?

"My lord, it is a great victory. It's a victory."

Austin looks around and smiles brightly.

Roan nods silently.

Completely annihilated a horde of monsters of the Grain Mountains, famous for their ferocity and power.

But I couldn't be relieved.

'Here we go.'

The real battle, the real war, has just begun.

Roan puts Travis' spear in his waist and moves on.

He sets out with his hand soldiers to clear the battlefield.

Thanks to this, all commanders of the commander's rank and above had to walk away from the sleeves.

No one complained.

Because it was so natural for the Lancefield Force.

Thanks to everyone's unity and attachment, the tidying up of the battlefield quickly ended.

After resting all the soldiers for a day, Roan heads for Longport Castle.

Return.

It was also a perfect improvement.

The front door of Longport Castle is wide open, as the messenger arrives one step ahead.

Roan has set up camp outside the West Gate and East Gate for the saints and has them stay with the troops.

Of course, the injured were moved to a makeshift shelter that they had previously installed to be treated.

He also carefully stored the bodies of his comrades who died bravely during the battle and ordered them to prepare for a sacred burial.

After Roan entered Longport and examined the soldiers' condition first, he went to see Princess Cady Lines who was staying at the Resistance.

"Princess, the monster army has been wiped out. Rest assured."

Short report.

Cady sits in a stiff chair, looking at Roan with calm eyes.

There was a complex expression on his face.

"Earl Lancefield......"

Respect.

Cady raised her voice to Roan, who was always on her best behavior.

"Well done, and..."

She hesitates for a moment and lets out a short sigh.

"Thank you."

Cady gets up from her seat and approaches Roan.

Roan bows, kneeling on one knee.

Cady quickly reaches out and raises him up.

"You don't have to do that for me. And......."

She pulls out a small envelope from her chest.

Roan carefully accepts the envelope and looks at Cady.

Cady smiled bitterly and said in a bold voice.

"Here's a letter in the name of Cady Rhines. Brother, or King Simon Lines, said that he was defeated by Earl Roan Lancefield and paid for his crimes by holding hands with shamans to puppeteer the people of the kingdom and doing terrible things to make the kingdom a ruin."

I felt a slight tremor in my voice.

Tears filled my eyes as if they were going to fall soon.

"I don't know how this is going to help, but in the name of the royal family, I wanted to make amends for my brother in the name of his brother. I just hope it helps Earl Lancefield walk."

Cady struggles to smile and sits back in her chair.

Roan glances at the envelope for a moment, tucks it into his chest, and lowers his head slightly.

"Thank you for your consideration."

He glances at Cady for a moment, then leaves the battle.

'Poor thing.'

I became an orphan without any family blood.

'Well, neither do I.'

The same was true of Roan, who was an orphan.

But I was able to count Cady's heart.

His pace is swift.

There was someone I needed to see.

Luckily, he wasn't far.

When I left the fortress, I saw Fields waiting.

"Are you done?"

Pills asks politely, but wipes the inside of the resistance over Roan's shoulder.

I didn't know if I was worried about her or if I wanted to see her.

"Fields."

"Yes? Yes!"

Phil straightens up at the sound of a low call.

Roan looks inside the Resistance once and gives a short command.

"From now on, stay close to Princess Cady when nothing special happens."

"Yes?"

Phil asked with a surprised expression.

Roan gives the order again, expressing his true nature.

"I told you to protect Princess Cady. What, you don't like it?"

"Oh, no, that's not it….."

Phil stammers and blushes.

Roan stares straight at Pills like that.

"Please."

Low but powerful voice.

Phil frowns for a moment, then lowers his head.

"Y-yeah. I'll take my orders."

I remembered a strange joy on my face.

When Roan saw that, he tapped Pills on the shoulder and moved on.

His steps led him outside the gates, not to immunity, not to extinction.

The troops couldn't sleep alone in the Seongyan Manor while putting them to sleep outside the gates.

At a temporary private barracks, Roan summoned commanders, chiefs, and administrators of the commanders and commanders of the commanders of the Thousand or more, and held military meetings with the nonpublic.

The first things that were decided in this process were respect, reward, and memorial for the warriors.

In the name of Earl Lancefield, Roan prepared a humble but solemn funeral and memorial.

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-bam!

On a good day, a funeral ceremony was held with a march by the Milta army.

Hundreds of woodsmen ride on the shoulders of soldiers.

Above the carpentry were cloths engraved with Earl Lancefield's crest.

Survivors take short positions to the left and right of the procession.

The hearts of those who watched the end of the comrades were overwhelmed.

The people of Longport Castle also poured into the streets in tribute.

Roan silently guards the backs of those who leave dressed in black conquest.

Cady's body and mind were also revealed in the immunity.

because they knew exactly what they were fighting for and what they were risking their lives for.

Ba-bam, ba-bam! Bam!

The playing of the Milta Army was at its peak.

Immediately after the woodsmen left the gates, thousands of new woodsmen appeared.

Unlike the previous chaplain, Earl Lancefield's plain wooden crest.

The owners of the carpenters were innocent people who lost their lives as shaman dolls.

The dead bodies of Roan and Earl Lancefield were buried with dignity, even by the royal people who were able to recover the bodies.

It was an act of ordaining their thoughts and will for the people of the kingdom.

Chuck!

The soldiers who were ordering the troops stood flat and bowed their heads.

The people who filled the streets burst into tears.

Most of them were survivors just before becoming shaman dolls.

"Hehe."

Cady, who was standing next to me, burst into tears.

I couldn't bear the terrible sadness and guilt.

Roan raises his eyes at Pills.

"Princess, it's okay. It's not her fault."

Fields soothes Cady with his dying voice.

Cady nods without saying anything and relies on Pills.

With a short sigh, Roan looks back at the procession.

'This should never happen again.'

My heart is burning.

The humble but polite, sad but warm funeral and memorial were solemnly concluded.

The residents of Longport Castle and the surrounding area expressed their deepest gratitude and appreciation for Roan's consideration.

Roan told those who had suffered terrible things a great deal of compensation and consolation.

Thanks to this, the praises of the royal people spread around Longport Castle.

Now the people of the Rhine kingdom can only rely on Roan Lancefield.

At the end of the memorial, Roan called a meeting of all the shamans.

Chris and Keefe had finally arrived at Longport Castle.

"Sorry I'm late."

"I'm sorry."

They were both exhausted.

They ran from the south and north of the Rhine Kingdom and could not rest. No, I didn't rest.

I was aware of the urgency of the matter.

Roan also did not complain because he knew how urgent Chris and Keefe had been.

"Well done."

A full-scale meeting began with a short chief.

First, Chris reported on what was happening in the Northern Kingdom of the North Line.

"On the surface, the King of the North Line is Barry Webster, but Clay holds the real power. Clay took control of the duchess, the Webster duchess, who was a deserter, and put the duchess' army at his fingertips."

"If that were the case, wouldn't it be okay for you to ascend the throne and build a country?"

A commander frowns and mutters.

Chris shakes his head.

"The base itself is weak, and the moment Clay himself ascended the throne, the nobles were prone to violent opposition. That's why Clay came into power as he founded the wandering Duke of Webster's eldest son, Barry. At the same time, I put a banner for the vengeance of Duc Bradley Webster. The Duke of Webster, one of the original ducs of the Kingdom, stood up, and the elite nobles and authorities who followed him came to the Duke of Webster."

"And Clay must have taken them."

At Roan's words, Chris nods.

"It happened so fast. Clay attacked Mills Boysa and the Estia Imperial forces, which appeared on the duc's northern border shortly after taking control of various nobles and authorities. Everyone was frightened, and they insisted on peace."

I knew the story after that.

Clay declared the kingdom of North Rice after defeating Mills and the Estonian Empire and seating Barry as king.

"What's the status?"

Roan asked briefly.

"Not bad."

Chris smiled faintly and spoke in hindsight.

"Mills, who was beaten by Clay, is preparing to raid the Northern Rhine once again by apprehending the Estonian Empire and alliing with Byron Empire."

Austin nods, smiling bitterly.

"That means we can't afford to care."

It was definitely not a bad situation.

But I didn't like it.

"Should I thank the Estonian Empire Army and Byron Empire? Tsk."

One of the commanders slapped his tongue with an unpleasant look.

There was no one to call him a tree.

because they were all the same feelings, the same thoughts.

Roan looks away and looks at Keefe from Tenebrae.

"What's the situation down south?"

"Not good."

Kip shakes his head, getting up from his seat.

"South is hell. Hell."

My voice trembles.

I felt the struggle of pressing down on him.

The gaze of all the commanders and shamans was on Kiev.

"Three Prince Column Lines, supported by Lucan, prince of the Dyes, reigned over the Kingdom of South Lines. He claims to be the Tradition of the Rhine Kingdom, but in reality he is the puppet of Lucan."

My voice grew slightly louder.

"I'm pretending I don't know the evil deeds of the SS royal army that follows him to see Lukan. Plunder, arson, extortion, murder, robbery....... all the terrible things that exist in this world are happening in the southern part of the kingdom. The people of the kingdom are dying in tears."

"Hmm."

All the pretenders at the meeting burst into tears.

I had no idea things were so terrible in the south.

Keefe's words continued.

"Now Column and Lucan are mobilizing their forces and marching on Miller. The Lancefield garrison and the Starfleet are currently blocking their advance in the southern part of Miller Castle."

A life-threatening battle.

No, it was a death sentence.

Thanks to the actions of the Garrison and the Starfleet, the advance of Column and Lucan is much slower than expected.

"My lord!"

Suddenly, Keefe bows down with his manners.

My whole body trembled.

"Please save the people of the southern kingdom." Everyone, all the people of the kingdom....... "

One letter, one letter, one word after another.

"I'm waiting for the Lord."

A hot voice that melts with desperation.

There was a silence in the barracks.

Roan looks at Keefe quietly and wakes up.

Everyone's gaze pours into Roan.

Roan turns to look at Chris and Ian.

Chris and Ian nod as if they were waiting.

Roan also takes a short breath and nods.

Finally, a decision was made.

"We go south."

"Ah......."

Keefe stretched his waist and burst a deep elasticity.

Roan glanced at Keefe and the eyes of many of his goons and said something behind his back.

"We risk our lives to save our lone comrades. We are going to save the people of our dying kingdom. We are……"

Boom.

Roan slaps the table with his fist.

"I am at peace with the Kingdom of the South Line."

I chose the south rather than the north.

Fortunately, the situation was not bad.

"It's all June......."

As Roan's command is about to continue, suddenly the barracks' doors open wide.

"My lord!"

It was the commander of the Thousand Seals who was in charge of the camp that urgently appeared.

"What are you doing during the meeting!"

Austin snaps out of it.

The commander bows his head in haste.

"I'm sorry. It's so urgent......."

At that point, Roan raises his hand to calm Austin down and looks at the commander.

"What's going on?"

The commander quickly replied with a short question.

"The nobles are here."

At that moment, several pretenders frowned.

"Nobles?"

"Nobles?"

It was a very curious thing.

Roan was popular among the common people and knights, but not among the nobles.

There was also a problem with the ingredients of origin, but above all, it was because Roan greatly diminished and did not recognize the authority and prestige of the existing nobles.

Thanks to this, the number of nobles who are now sending their support to Roan and fighting together is small enough.

I was surprised when I heard that the nobles had come.

"Who are the people who came to see you?"

Roan asks with a bold expression and voice.

Everyone was waiting for the commander to answer.

"The name of their representative was Baron Seat Wiggins."

Some muppets look surprised at the end of the horse.

"Baron Seat Wiggins was the head of a small group called the 12-Hatzling."

"Yes. That must be the nobleman who got kicked out after speaking to Prince Simon." "

"I thought he'd died long ago hiding the trail..."

"What a sudden visit. Hmm."

A lot of words poured out.

At that time, the commander smiled complexly.

"Hey, by the way..."

His gaze flashes past Roan and the other patrons.

The look on your face that you really have something to say.

Everyone opened their eyes and waited for the next word.

The commander breathed once and then spoke behind his back.

"Baron Sheet Wiggins brought the seal of the Senate."
