I am the Monarch

< Chapter 44 The King's Path >

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

"Hahahaha!"

"Waaaahhhh!"

The king, too, shouted at each other with a drink.

The sound of music and laughter continued continuously.

Festival.

The happiest and happiest festival in the world was held.

The sun had already fallen and it had become the middle of the night, but people kept their positions until the end.

"All the nobles that reached the end, did they bow down?"

"Of course! You saw the senator pull his tail down to lay a banner. Hahaha!"

"Not a single noble rebels against Earl Lancefield now!"

"All the nobles who were trying to protect their lives, their wealth and their power all the way through the war were all contemplated, and I felt so refreshed! Hahaha!"

The Sanctuary's citizens clamored loudly, eating food full of tables.

I have never insulted and judged nobles so publicly in my life.

"Hahaha! It's all thanks to Earl Lancefield that we can laugh and brag about."

"Well, well. Earl Lancefield's got your back so you can speak up like this."

It was true.

Without a drop of blood, Roan opened the grain warehouse and supply warehouse after the King entered Mill and provided abundant support to the saints with liquor and food.

At the same time, the king also asked the garrison once again to keep the citizens of Miller safe.

"It will be a good world to live in. Right?"

A man mutters with a red face.

For a moment, the static settled.

The people around you nod with a wet expression.

"I'm sure you will."

"Yes."

They all kissed and spoke in one voice.

"Earl Lancefield is special."

Everyone's faith was united.

At least not as different as Roan.

Their gaze naturally turned towards the center of the castle.

At the end of his gaze was a lofty palace.

There was Ronan, who carried the hope and the wind of all men on his shoulders.

"What we need right now is not a proclamation and an immediacy."

Roan said in a solemn voice, walking slowly through the war.

The original empty-handed battle was filled with large tables of several.

Earl Lancefield's shamans, the Lord Commander of the Territory, and the other nobles and ministers who have joined him sit around the table.

Everyone looked at Roan with a solemn look.

"First, we focus on stabilizing the government."

In response, Austin and Earl Lancefield's housewives nod.

"You are absolutely right."

"Enemy remnants are still active in the north and south."

"There will be some publicly rebellious nobles."

"We need to wrap things up with the Estonian Empire, Byron Kingdom, Estelle Kingdom, and DS Kingdom."

I had more work to do than I thought.

Then.

Bait.

The battle door, which was tightly closed, was wide open.

Everyone, including Roan, looked at the entrance.

At that moment, Roan smiled brightly.

I had a happy, happy look on my face.

"Alie."

Low call.

It was the Aelys who entered the battle through the wide open gates.

She was wearing a clean conquest, not her usual robe.

Even though it wasn't a dress, she looked stunning.

Is Princess Aelle that beautiful? '

Some nobles look surprised and stick their tongues out.

After revealing that she was the Queen of the Elves herself, she boasted of the beauty she had been hiding.

"It's a little late."

"It's okay. Are you hurt?"

Roan is just worried about Aelee.

Ailee raises her hands, slightly turning her head.

"It's okay. You're not hurt."

"Thank goodness."

Roan sighs for a short sigh.

Ailee looks at Roan like that.

Honey and light flow from the large eyes.

Their gaze gently tangled.

An unprecedented love affair that started in the middle of the competition.

Eventually, Austin coughed.

"Hmph! Hmph!"

Then Roan and Aelee turn their backs, smiling awkwardly.

Ali finds a vacant spot and sits down.

Roan glances at the figure and looks solemn again.

"Stabilize politics until spring comes."

A change in attitude.

"Yes, I understand."

Everyone smiled faintly and answered in one voice.

Since then, the meeting continued until the son-in-law went dark.

Roan listens to everyone's opinion.

I never insisted on useless stubbornness.

I thought I'd admit what I lacked and back off.

Thanks to this, the plans of talented people were poured out across the fields.

Ian and Swift, among others, worked calmly and meticulously to organize their plans.

At the end of the competition, there was an approximate plan.

"Whew."

Roan sighs a long time.

It was literally a debate.

The wizards, commanders, and nobles were already exhausted and were already moaning.

"Fine. Let's end the meeting here for today."

"Ah......."

A sigh of relief bursts out.

But soon, Roan said, his face turned white.

"Regroup at sunrise."

"Yes, yes. I understand."

I had no choice.

Everyone knew how important this moment was.

Everything could have fallen apart with wrong choices and carelessness.

"Sure. Let's go back and get some rest."

After Roan declared the meeting closed, everyone got up and walked toward the entrance.

Everyone seemed to have a hard time.

'Whew.'

A sad and sorry heart.

But...

'As we suffer, the people of the kingdom become more comfortable.'

Roan takes a deep breath.

It was that heavy a responsibility as the position got higher.

He once again caught his mind.

You need to keep your center straight so that those who follow you don't waver.

That was one of the roles of a monarch.

"What makes you think that?"

I heard a sweet voice in my ears.

It was Ali.

A war where everyone left.

She remains alone, staring at Roan.

Roan smiles bluntly and replies briefly.

"Your thoughts."

Red lies.

Roan, he was a man of no choice.

* * *

The Lancefield hordes have been unruly.

The Lancefield forces have focused their efforts on eliminating and stabilizing the remaining party in the northern region, centering on King Mill.

On the contrary, the Tail Corps was also responsible for the southern region around Milr.

Residues from the North Line and South Line kingdoms that were preparing for counterinsurgency and some of the forces that were still following Simon have been destroyed without a proper counterattack on the massive subjugation.

Meanwhile, Roan rushed Swift, Bro and Nanz to Byron, DS and Istel, respectively.

The defeated kingdom of Byron has raised both hands and feet in Swift's stern stance.

In the end, with an enormous war bounty, they agreed to grant a portion of the Southern region.

He also accepted the treaty that he could open the borders and advance the troops at any time.

In the beginning, Byron Kingdom had no choice but to accept a humiliating negotiation.

Because it was a rogue all-over country that attacked the Rhine Kingdom twice.

The kingdom of DS has also agreed to pay for the war in exchange for the prince, Lucan Dies.

However, the return of Lucan Dies was nailed shortly after Roan ascended the throne.

On the other hand, the Kingdom of Estelle, which fought alongside Roan, received the land back as promised and was deprived of war compensation.

The negotiations are over, if they were meant to be.

However, Fade Nail, who was the negotiating head of the Estelle Kingdom, wanted the relationship between the two countries to move forward.

He suggested that we make three of the border gates a little easier for both peoples to get around.

It was obvious why.

We wanted to increase our supply trade with the Rhine Kingdom.

Even though the land was given back and war compensation was deducted, it was still in need of the Estelle Kingdom.

Nanz, who had already received power from Roan, accepted the proposal and offered another proposal in return.

It is the right to navigate the Estelle River through the Estelle Kingdom.

If this is the only way to travel, Lancefield's naval forces based on Lake Foucane have had a chance to travel to the sea via the Estel.

Fade, who was well aware of this, naturally declined the offer.

But you didn't back down.

He expressed a solemn position that if he did not accept this offer, he would not accept it either.

Negotiations have been unsupported.

That's when Nanz came up with a new offer.

We said that we would build ports in each of our riverside cities while using the Estel as a trade route.

Faith, who had seen the Lancefield Navy and realized the importance of transportation and shipping, was moved by Nance's proposal.

Nanz emphasized that this was his last offer and Fade accepted it in the end.

The two of them got the results they wanted, were satisfied, and concluded the negotiations.

The Kingdom of Rhine quickly regained its stability thanks to the elixir of these Earl Lancefield shamans.

Especially Ian and Swift.

The two reconstructed the administrative zones, institutions, organizations and systems while bringing together the Lancefield territorial forces and various forces.

They used their own system to lead various ministers and nobles, quickly solving complex problems across the kingdom.

We received a lot of help from Agents, Aviation and Tenebra, the intelligence and intelligence organizations in the process, the biggest of which was their help.

"This is amazing."

"I can't believe this is..."

Ian and Swift rush in after the informant reported, holding out their tongues with their eyes wide open.

"I was sick of it the first time I saw it."

Chris smiles bitterly.

All three of them stood in front of the small entrance and looked inside the room.

The enormous space was as rugged as a cavern.

But what surprised them was not the peculiar appearance.

Ian, Swift and Chris enter the room.

I was very careful on my feet.

Why I had to.

because this enormous, vast space was filled with enormous numbers of books.

Swift picks up one of the cluttered books in front of his feet.

"Are you sure this is all...?"

Unbelievable voice.

Chris nods, smiling bitterly.

"Yes. Most of the books here..."

He sighed briefly.

"It was written by Clay."

Clay.

A genius who overestimated his abilities and tried to change the world by himself.

After being defeated by Roan, he was beheaded and only his name appeared.

"Whew….."

Ian and Swift shake their heads in a grim expression.

Chris stretched his arms out across the books.

"I knew there were many talents in many ways......."

I felt a slight tremor in my voice.

"I didn't know it was going to be like this."

It was more than a thousand volumes.

Even though he had a lot of knowledge, he could never write it alone.

But...

'You must have used Druid technology.'

Clay could have done enough.

The three of them had explored several books for a long time.

"This is so......."

"I can't believe I'm thinking of this like this......."

"This is the part I never thought of."

The more I read it, the more I was amazed.

Eventually, the three of them put down their books.

In this way, the end was invisible.

"I should send these books to Mediacis Castle first."

"I'd like that, too."

Ian says Swift and Chris nod.

The three of them smiled bitterly at each other and walked towards the entrance.

"Even though Clay is dead......."

Ian takes a deep breath.

"If these books are known to the world..."

Behind the scenes were Swift and Chris.

"There will be a reassessment of him."

"Maybe you'll get a little too much tinnitus. No, I don't think it's too much. because what's great is true."

Clay shakes his name even in death.

I was definitely him.

Ian stops and looks back.

An enormous amount of books caught my eye.

"Clay, the knowledge you have left will be used to benefit the world. '

The method was wrong, but Clay's goal was also to benefit the world.

Perhaps dying helped us accomplish that will, so we were able to see that we had accomplished some of our goals.

"Your assessment of him is….."

I couldn't do it right now.

'I'll leave that to history.'

Ian smiles faintly and walks again.

Clay's secret stash.

It was a great fortune that became the basis of a new kingdom.

Time passed very slowly and very quickly.

* * *

The rest of the Rhine Kingdom has been restored.

The situation abroad was also peaceful.

Byron Kingdom struggled to pay off the enormous war reimbursement, and the Kingdom of Dies, too, risked its life to get Lucan back.

The Kingdom of Estelle stands ahead of Fade Nail to strengthen friendship.

Roan and Gazin spent all the war money on the royal people.

Thanks to you, I was able to spend a cold and hungry winter intact.

The people of the kingdom praised Roan for being the warmest winter ever.

And finally winter retreated and spring came.

The cold sun was warm and the brown ground was covered in green.

Water flowed over where the snow and ice melted.

The world opened its doors and gained a new life.

And Roan was also on the verge of a new life.

"My lord, we are ready."

Austin approaches with an expressive expression and bows his head.

Unlike usual, I was wearing a clean conquest instead of armor.

Conquest, of course, was now the same red color as Lancefield's symbol.

As Roan sits down reviewing the documents, he nods, smiling dimly.

He was also wearing the same conquest as Austin.

Austin lets out a short breath as if he could not bear to see it.

"I wish you'd worn something a little more glamorous."

At that, Roan shakes his head, getting up from his seat.

"I wanted to wear the same clothes as you."

In one word, everything was sorted out.

Austin, as well as all those who plunged backwards, bowed their heads with an expressive look.

Roan walks away smiling brightly.

As I came out through the wide open door, the dazzling sunlight poured out.

It was a gorgeous day.

The day has finally come.
