I am the Monarch

< Chapter 52 Past >

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

The first life was perfect.

No, it was perfect.

An orphan boy from the village of the Grain Mountains fled from the village at the age of 18 and entered the Rhine Kingdom training camp.

After a short period of training, I was assigned to the rosebushes and built up a large and small majors.

However, he did not have a good relationship with his unit's deputy commander, general, and then Eastern Army commander Benjamin Doyle, so he was assigned to the ranks of the Grain Mountains after a long ascent on the left.

However, within five years of joining the elite troops, you will be promoted to the Northern Military Deputy of the Rhine Kingdom by defeating a massive coalition of monsters.

"Wait. How did a terminal-spearer who was stationed in a media station manage to subdue the monsters in five years?"

Callian frowns and tilts his head as he listens to the story.

Roan Lancefield smiles bitterly.

"I don't know about that. It's information that depends on Tempestas' memory, so I don't really know what I was going through in my first life."

If Roan was looking back at or talking about his life in a space with Tempestas himself, it would have been recorded as well, but unfortunately none of that information existed in Tempestas' memory.

Occasionally, Roan's appearance or story was recorded, but mostly it was just a routine conversation.

Thanks to this, we had no choice but to gather, analyze, or analogize information through Pills, who was the longest owner of Tempestas, and the stories around him.

"If I put together the stories of Pills or the stories of the people he talked with, I think I've got some kind of performance."

It was a guess, of course.

"Acting....... didn't you get it in the last life?"

In response to Calian's question, Roan nods slowly.

"Yes, there was nothing called performance in my last life, or in my second life, and there was no performance in my life related to the Grain Mountains."

Thanks to Reid's Mana and Rule Viete, the Spirit King's Tears and the Rare Bluedragon Ver.......

Although not related to the Grain Mountains, in this life, I've been able to get a few things called acting.

"Hmm. The performance of the grain mountains....... What the hell is going on there......."

Calian's mind is clouded by thought.

However, I soon felt Roan's gaze and waved my hands.

"Ah! Let's finish the story first. Go on."

"Yes, I understand."

Roan nods quietly and says back.

Roan, a deputy minister for the Northern Army, led a border guard during the reign dispute over the Rhine Kingdom, fought several battles with the Byron Kingdom troops and recorded his victory.

Especially when Byron was united with the Estelle Kingdom for a large-scale invasion, he also established an extraordinary specialty, including single-handedly defeating enemy forces.

"Clearly there was some kind of performance."

Kalian glares at you with a big smile.

Roan nods slightly and continues to unravel the story.

The succession quarrel ended with the triumph of the Three Princes' Column Lines as it did in the second life.

Similarly, Simon Rhys, who fell out of the throne dispute, became a lord of fanatics and terrorized the kingdom.

Simon was a fanatic in his first life, in his second life, in his third life.

'In a way, he is a sad man.'

The reason he became a fanatic was because the filthy desires of the Grand Duke of Bradley Webster and his shamans played a big part in it.

I felt human compassion.

Of course, that didn't mean that he forgave his crimes and his murders.

When the Gwangju terrorized the Kingdom of Rhine, there was a hero in the Old Kingdom, so it was him.

After reaching the position of commander and deputy commander of the Northern Army at that time, Roan defeated Simon the Berserker and the Legion of Darkness with his tactics and unmanned maneuvers.

This was a completely different part of my second life.

In the second life, Pills and Ian defeated and destroyed the Berserkers and Legions of Darkness instead of Roan.

At the time, Roan was just a terminal spear.

"In my first life, I was appointed to command the Central Army as a nobleman, in recognition of my work in destroying the Berserkers and the forces of Darkness and stabilizing the kingdom."

He used to take on Pills, Ian, etc. who fought together in the process.

After that, Roan gained a reputation as the best general in the realm, including ascending to the Earldom in a war of big and small.

But that's when the age of war began.

All the countries on the continent pointed swords and swords at each other for some unknown reason.

Yesterday's comrade became the enemy of today, and today's enemy continued to be the comrade of tomorrow.

It was a development that resembled a second life.

But unlike the second life, Column Lines, king of the Rhine Kingdom, was left with the worst number.

Decided to eliminate Roan, who had the same power as himself and had been trusted by the people of the kingdom.

Roan joins the Byron and Istel kingdoms to march on the Persian Empires, but he is in danger of being beheaded on the battlefield without even fighting properly because of the treachery of the Allied forces.

"That's when Manus Persian saved my life and empowered me."

Roan smiles blurrily.

Myself and Manus have been a relationship since our first life.

After that, there was nothing special.

With the help of the Persian Empire, Roan marched on the kingdoms of the Rhine to Mill, where he defeated the Byron Empire, the Istell Empire and the Rhine Empire.

Many generals and soldiers who rebelled across the kingdom in support of Roan, as if they had waited, joined Roan's camp.

The kingdom of Rhine, which was left with nothing but empty shells, fell swiftly, and Column Lines fled to the kingdom of DS with the crown thrown down.

Later, Roan ended the reign of the Rhine Kingdom and opened an era of the Amaranth Kingdom.

"Afterwards, after the end of the Great War, I went on to conquer the continent so that war would never happen again."

"And I did the hard thing."

Kalian grins and raises his thumb.

Roan smiles shyly.

I felt praised for not doing what I did.

"What about Latio? How did he do in his first life?"

Kalian asks an important question.

Roan's expression hardens.

"He was a Tellian disciple from the Aymas alliance."

"There are many followers of the Tellian Church in the Aymas Union."

Originally, the former united states of Aymas was one of the mighty kingdoms of the east.

More than 80 years ago, the Holy See was summoned when the Kingdom of Claude chose the Church of Tellian instead of the Devesian Church.

The majority of countries who believed in Devesian religion gathered under the banner of the Holy See to attack the Kingdom of Claude, and the Tellian Church was nearly destroyed.

The kingdom of Claude, which was one of the strongest in the east, was divided into dozens of countries, large and small.

That was the Islas coalition today.

Even though the country was torn apart and the Church of Tellian was nearly destroyed, there were still more followers of the Church of Tellian faith in the Confederacy than any other nation on the continent.

Most of them, of course, had to live with who they were.

"The Latios have been a family of Tellian believers for generations. There was an ancestor who built the Temple of the Tellian Church."

"Hmm."

Kalian spills a low tear.

"Then when the Imperial Army attacked the Kingdom of Claude......."

Roan nods slowly.

"Yes, Latio said that it had happened before he was born, but that the attack on the Imperial Army cost the lives of most of his family and relatives and most of the village."

It was as expected.

Bad predictions were always right.

"It seems that only the great grandfather of Latio and his newborn grandfather had survived. They barely survived the Temple while evading the Holy See religious trials."

"That must have been a terrible time."

Kalian frowns.

In fact, Kalian was so dark in the news of the world that he was guarding the gates of the border that he didn't really know about the really terrible and ugly things that had happened throughout the Aymas Alliance since the Holy See victory.

'I had my fair share of religious trials to find the priests and worshippers of the Tellian Church.'

In the process, countless people lost their lives.

It was a merciless killing without hindrance to both men and women.

Moreover, because it was a spontaneous religious trial, many people lost their lives even when they had nothing to do with it.

"Since birth, Latio was considered a child of God, literally born with immense divine power in his body. From the perspective of the devastated High Septon, I really thought the Savior was born. The problem is......."

Roan smiles bitterly.

"Everyone around me, even the High Septon, was injecting Latios with hatred for the Holy Shrine and the Devesian Church. And so Latio grew into an incarnation of rage. Plus….."

He sighed briefly.

Kalian shines his two eyes and speaks behind his back.

"You must have raised a hatred for the nations that joined the Holy See."

Roan nods silently.

Since birth, Latio has seen the world as an enemy and a living hell.

"Then something happened."

Callian smiles bitterly.

"I see what you're talking about."

He looks directly into Roan's eyes.

"The Holy See was once again summoned as the Allied forces joined forces to rebuild the kingdom of Claude. It was smaller than the first one, but once again, the Icelandic Coalition has fallen apart."

At that, Roan nods.

It was something that happened to Roan when he was a child, but he was able to clearly understand the tragedy of that time through various books.

"From the perspective of the Tellian Church, it was a terrible war when a savior named Latio grew up."

He looked at the sky for no reason.

"Once again, the Imperial Army massacred both men and women. In the process, all of Latio's parents and friends were killed. The Faith risked their lives to save only Latios."

"You must have been ignited by your great hatred."

Kalian shakes his head, frowning.

I finally understood where Latio's desperate madness began.

"Later, I emerged and united the continent at the end of the Crescent Festival, but Latio's hatred grew."

In Tempestas' brief memory, Latios tried to use the followers of the Tellian Church to brake Roan's march, but in the end it all failed.

Unfortunately, it was unclear at what time and what attempt it was.

No, there was one event that was clearly documented.

"At the end of the continent unification, Latio had a peculiar ritual in which he gathered his followers."

Callian smiles faintly.

"I saw it through Tempestas' memories, too."

Roan nods.

"Yes. He tried to open the gates of the border by sacrificing the congregation."

"But I failed."

Khalian quickly speaks in the back.

His finger points to Roan.

"You and the knights raided the altar."

"That's right. Reports from sources across the Empire have allowed us to raid the altar no later than late." But we missed Latio. "

Roan sighs a long time.

"The escaped Latios once again gathered the believers to prepare for another ritual."

That was the ritual to awaken Tempestas' sleeping power and power.

"You've come back to the past realizing there's nothing you can do about it."

Callian shakes his head when he hears the full story of his first life.

I could figure out why Latio called the world hell, why he tried to destroy the intermediate system, but I couldn't stand it.

"What kind of people give their lives for a lunatic like that?"

Kalian shakes his head as if he didn't understand.

Roan smiles bitterly.

"At first, it was mostly the followers and the people of the Icelandic Union who believed in the Tellian Church for generations. Their families, relatives, and relatives became the bodies under the swords of the Holy See. But......."

He sighs deeply, reminiscing about Tempestas' memories.

"Later in the war, people who lost precious people flocked to the bottom of Latio. The only place I could rely was him and the Tellian Church."

Although Roan ended the era of the war and united the continents, and even gained the impeachment of the Emperor, those who lost someone precious to the war had only met with the provider of the cause.

Nevertheless, he could not find rest through the church of Devesis.

Because the Holy See was corrupt, and after Roan's reign, they all abandoned their duties and fled.

In the end, the only person who could rely on the wounded were the wounded Latios like themselves.

"Taking advantage of people's pain and sadness. Worst of the worst."

Kalian frowns.

Although he was a dragon, he understood human emotions as well as being deeply involved in the human world.

"So what happened to your second life?"

Calian shakes his head and cautiously asks.

Roan smiles bitterly and replies.

"It was a mess. It was a mess."

He sighs briefly, reminiscing about Tempestas.

It was really messy.

Returning to the past, Latio quickly gained strength and power by harnessing the future memories he knew.

At the same time, after dispatching loyal believers to each country on the continent, they did not spare their support.

Thanks to this, many members occupied the role of kingdoms and empires, acting as the shadow of Latio.

In the process, Latio moved the congregation to put a brake on Roan's march, and he continued to relocate to the locus of the unknown body and eventually became a terminal spearer.

Of course, he blocked his way through the left skirt to the elite units of the Grain Mountains.

"And he searched everywhere to get the gig, but he had no income."

In the end, Roan's performance in her first life was trapped in an eternal labyrinth.

Callian frowns as he listens.

"By the way, what's he doing so complicated back in the day? Why don't we just kill you?"

He was right.

Roan nods, too.

"I was curious at first. If he went back in time, why didn't he kill me? If I was such a distraction, shouldn't I have handled it first?"

You have a strange smile on your mouth.

"I don't know exactly, but I'm guessing from Tempestas' memory..."

"Results......."

Kalian's ears widen, following behind his back for no reason.

Roan's smile darkens.

"He seems to have returned much later than he expected."
