I am the Monarch

Chapter 54 Alliance

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

A palace spectacular enough to rival the heyday of the Estia Empire.

There were only two men enjoying a stroll in a garden so wide as to be considered a field.

“Do you really have to go? ”

The person who spoke with a worrying face and voice was a middle-aged man with a white under-ear.

He clears his throat and lets out a long breath.

The young man next to me bowed his head with a soft expression.

“I have to go this time. ”

“Hmm.”

The middle-aged man closed his eyes with a low depression.

After a while.

“If you evacuate the Imperium, who will look into the situation of the Empire?" ”

I was still worried about my face and voice.

On the other hand, he had a soft smile on his face.

“You don't have to worry about that. Excellent talent from the Academy is fulfilling their duties. And.......”

He glanced quietly at the side of the middle-aged man.

“Now the Empire will have no problems without me.......”

When the horse goes on like that.

“Stop. I told you never to say anything like that. ”

The middle-aged man's expression and voice became harsh.

The young man bowed his head with a short sigh.

“I'm sorry."

Soft voice.

Then the middle-aged man waved his hand with a clear-headed cough.

“Don't get me wrong, I'm not mad at you. However.......”

He looked straight at the young man and said something behind his back.

“Earl Crewe Hale. I hope you remember this much. The rise of our fallen empire, the rise of the Lucian Empire, was all thanks to you, and the strength to raise your shoulders alongside the Estonian Empire. ”

The middle-aged man firmly grasped the shoulders of the young man, Earl Crewe Hale.

“This summoning of the Holy Troops is a precious opportunity we've been waiting for, as far as our empire is concerned. It's an opportunity to demonstrate the power you've been hiding. ”

I felt a slight tremor in my voice.

Crewe smiles and lowers his head slightly.

“That's why I'm going myself. Your Majesty."

The middle-aged man was Palmer de Lucia, the former emperor of the Lucian Empire.

Crewe looks back at Palmer's two eyes.

“I will show the world the power of the Lucian Empire. ”

Palmer slaps Crewe on the shoulder, smiling.

“Leave your name out of it. ”

It was something that bothered me the whole time.

‘I tried to stop him from leaving the Empire because I wanted to…..’

Palmer had hoped that the world would learn of the existence of a tremendous talent called Kroo.

The crew simply smiles instead of answering.

Then.

“By the way, if you do well, you might meet your sisters. ”

Palmer carefully recalls the old stories he had heard from Crewe.

Crewe nods, smiling faintly.

“If we're lucky. ”

Palmer flinches his memory and asks a question.

“I thought you said we were mathematicians under the same teacher, not in the bloodline? ”

“Yes, I was the first disciple, and there were two more downstairs. ”

“You said you couldn't hide your superiority, right? ”

Palmer's question continues.

Crewe nods, smiling shyly.

Palmer soon sticks out his tongue.

“Two more talents like you....... I wish I had them all by my side, but if I had that kind of power, I'd already be serving someone or fulfilling my dreams and dreams. ”

“Probably. ”

Crewe nods, smiling bitterly.

‘One of them is already dead. Your Majesty.'

My heart was pounding.

It wasn't a good feeling.

Palmer regains his taste as if it were a pity, and rebuilds.

“Have a safe trip. I will be waiting for you here in the castle. ”

At that, Crewe kneels on one knee.

“I will renounce the name of Lucia. ”

He gives a polite greeting, then swoops back and slowly steps forward.

You can see the garden entrance from a distance.

As soon as we leave that door, the trip will begin.

‘It's been a while since I've been out in the world. ’

You catch a faint smile on the crew's mouth.

Deep sunken eyes sparkle and glow.

‘The Imperial Army.......’

I kept repeating my complicated plans in my mind.

‘There's going to be a great breeze on the continent. ’

As you predict, a great, unprecedented war will engulf the continent.

But it didn't scare me or worry me.

Crewe himself had great faith in his abilities.

Suddenly, two brothers came to mind.

‘Marino seems to be doing well.......’

I felt a sad light in my eyes for a moment.

He looked up at the sky.

‘Youngest, how are you? ’

But Crewe shakes his head.

‘No, not you.......’

He lowers his head again and looks at the ground.

Is it this way?

I felt sad and lonely all over my face.

I squeezed my lips and took a long breath.

“I'd like to put some flowers in the grave if I could..."

Probably not easy

“Forgive this wretched brother. ”

A heartfelt apology.

“My dear brother Clay. ”

A small voice falls to the floor.

* * *

“Dark Elves?! ”

“Dark Elves?! ”

The nobles who filled the battlefield shouted with open eyes.

Unlike Roan Lancefield and Manus Persian, they had no idea that the Dark Elves had returned to the world.

On the other hand, King Abed von Persion, who was sitting on the throne, was surprised for a moment, but he maintained his usual expression.

‘Even when I heard Prince Reytas was dead, and I felt something...'

Roan narrows his eyes to an unknown strange feeling.

Several doubts shook my mind.

But now was not the time to care about anything else.

He gently twists his wrist and pulls Travis' spear.

Just then, the faces of the knights surrounding the throne melted away.

Like psywood, a dark grey complexion appeared.

They were dark elves, too.

“Ah.......”

“How did this happen.......”

The nobles of Persion were unable to speak with a devastating look on their faces.

Roan smiles bluntly and looks at the dark elf who disguised himself as the Duke of Passewood Sitale, or Freud.

He looked at Roan with an interesting expression.

“I've heard so much about you. Roan Lancefield.”

He draws his sword from his waist.

The wound on your side was noticeably cured.

“My name is Lauren. An honorable warrior from the Dark Elves. ”

Laurel.

He was the Dark Elf who went to Reytas on Tello Island to rescue him and confused the Persian Empire.

Roan shakes his head with a blurry smile.

“Honor.......”

My wrist moved gently.

Glug-ug-ug!

A dark red flame rises through Travis' spear.

“That sounds funny. ”

It was really funny.

Those bastards holding Lunak the miner, holding hands with the Orcs, messing with the middleman, weren't the words to say.

Laurend grins and points at Roan with the tip of his sword.

“I wonder how far that leisure will go. ”

He was relaxed, no, confident.

Unfortunately, Laurend underestimated Roan.

‘That would be human.......’

It was a terrible mistake because I had not heard the news of the destruction of the Black Generals and the Legion.

The edges of Laurend's sword sparkle and glow.

At the same time.

“Kill.”

Stupid orders have been issued.

Ta-ah!

Dark Elves disguised as knights rush to Roan with their faces to the ground.

It was certainly a more agile and powerful move than soldiers from Humans, Orcs, and even Black Legions.

The blade moves sharply as well.

Spot!

Dozens of swords cleverly pierce the space and rush toward Roan.

“Hiic!”

“Huff!”

Some of the nobles in the background swallow the wind and turn their heads.

They were nobles from the gate who had never been in battle or in battle.

Manus, on the other hand, swiftly draws his sword and steps forward to help Ronan.

But I realized I didn't have to.

“Fools. ”

Roan grunts lightly, then pushes his right foot forward.

At the same time, his body rotates quickly in a circle.

Squeaker! Squeaker!

You cut off the Dark Elves' swords as you cut through the blaze.

Finally, the blade clashes against the spear.

Tsk, tsk!

A strange sound fills the battle, instead of the hissing that needs to be heard.

At the same time, a lump of smoke rises from the blades of the Dark Elves.

“Huff!”

“Yikes! ”

The Dark Elves, who galloped towards Roan, frowned as they saw the sword vanish like smoke before their eyes.

But I couldn't stay embarrassed forever.

Because Roan swirled around and scattered his spear.

The spear moves dizzily as it dances through the space.

Every time, a dark red flame blooms from death.

“Blood, move! ”

“Stand down!”

The Dark Elves wriggle in haste, screaming.

However, I was not enough room to avoid my body thanks to my ability to run well.

Spot! Squeak!

The spear pierces the hearts and necks of the Dark Elves.

Tsk, tsk!

They disappeared into a handful of smoke, just like the sword.

It just happened so fast.

Gulp.

Laurend, who was watching the situation, swallowed a dry drink without even knowing it.

Was it this strong? ’

It was more than a rumor.

I knew that Humans were strong enough to count, but I thought they were human enough.

I thought it would be easy to deal with the Dark Elf Warriors if they showed off their skills.

No, I thought I could cut Roan's head off with my best men, whom I usually cherished and trusted.

Later, Laurend realizes how stupid the idea was.

‘Damn it.'

The eyes move quickly from side to side.

Now there are roughly ten of them guarding the perimeter of the throne.

A moment ago, it was a number I could be confident of, but now it is not.

‘At this rate, we will die. ’

I had to find another way.

My heart was beating rapidly in a hurry.

Right then.

"Yes!"

Laurend's eyes gleam and glow.

His gaze leads to Abed sitting at the end of the throne.

"I'm holding that stupid king hostage. ’

Improvised decision.

My hands were even faster than I thought.

Roland reaches out and grabs Abed by the collar.

But Roan was also reading his thoughts.

No way!

He quickly pushes Travis' spear forward, striking the ground.

Pa!

Roan's appearance disappears and appears beside the throne.

It was blinking magic with Brant's ring.

“Ugh! Damn it! ”

Laurend grips his teeth, looking at Roan in front of him.

It got complicated in my head.

You're just gonna grab Abed by the throat? Or attack Roan? And if not, stand back? ’

There were too many options.

Thanks to this, I hesitated.

On the other hand, there was only one choice for Roan.

‘Kill.’

He stabs Travis' spear into Abed's chest without hesitation.

“Jae-e-e-e-en-za-aaaaang!”

Laurend twists, screaming.

His life was more important than catching a win.

He backs away, kicking the ground with his toes.

“Kill him!”

As you give the order to the remaining henchmen, the dark elves stand still and rush towards Roan.

No, I tried to run.

But they couldn't get what they wanted.

“How dare you! ”

Manus came running and sprinkled his sword.

The blade cuts through the room and dances.

Boom! Boom!

The Dark Elves' swords bounce off with an iron screech.

Manus was also skilled enough to save the Persian Empire from the edge of the cliff, although he was much less skilled than Roan.

His splendid sword slashes across the room and drives away the Dark Elves.

Thanks to this, Roan is able to deal with Laurend without a care.

After all, it was Roland who was cornered.

‘Dammit, I didn't want to use this much.......’

My left hand goes into my arms.

A small orb was touched on the tip of my finger.

‘Use the magic tools to get out of here. ’

A magical device handmade by Lunak.

It can only be used once, but it is engraved with teleport magic to avoid the body to a safe place.

Problem is.

If you use this, your life span will be reduced by half! ’

You had to pay to use Dragon Magic as the body of an Elf.

‘Dammit. Still, it's better than dying here. ’

Laurend can no longer think about it.

Because Roan came up to me.

He quickly bursts the magic tools with his fingertips.

Moment.

Paaaahhhhhh!

The white pillar rises above you, wrapped around Laurend.

“Hehehehe! Roan! I will repay you for your humiliation! ”

The strange laughter pierces my ears.

“Te, teleport magic?! ”

One of the nobles recognizes the pillar of light and screams.

“Farewell! ”

Once more, I hear the voice of Laurend.

At the same time, the white glowing column gradually blurred.

Then.

“Without my permission.......”

Roan slams to the ground and flies toward the pillar of light.

“I can't go anywhere. ”

At the same time, the right hand plunges into the dimming column.

Moment.

Phew!

The beam of light crumbles with a dull sound.

Literally white light splinters into pieces and falls to the ground.

What a strange sight.

But even more astonishing was right at the fingertips of Roan.

“Khh! Khh! ”

The one who spewed out the agony was Roland.

He's struggling with Roan by the neck.

“Uh, how was I teleporting…..”

Laurend shakes his head in disbelief.

Roan smiles blurrily, empowering his grip.

“It's hard to understand in the world.......”

Your fingers dig into Laurend's throat.

“A lot of surprises. This is just one of them. ”

“Grrrgh!"

Roland struggles harder.

But I couldn't escape Roan's clutches.

My eyes turned red.

He was looking for a way to live in this moment.

‘Yi, let's buy some time. ’

Laurend looks at Roan's two eyes.

“Roan Lancefield. You know how this world rots. If you leave it like this.......”

When the horse goes on like that.

A dark red flame rises from Roan's clutches.

The flames engulf Laurend's face and body in an instant.

I didn't even have a chance to stall.

“Rrrrghhh!”

Roland struggles, screaming in agony.

Roan whispered to him, gazing at him with bold eyes.

“I've heard enough nonsense already, even if it's not you. ”

At the same time, the fire intensified.

Tsk, tsk!

The smoke rises and Roland disappears.

Perfect disappearance without even ash.

It was a perfect force.

Everyone in the battle looked at Roan in surprise.

So was Manus against the Dark Elves.

Manus looks in awe at Roan.

“It's really great.......”

A fallen Dark Elf rushes towards Manus as the horse continues.

He grabs a broken sword and lunges at him.

The problem is Manus wasn't responding well to Ronan's gaze.

“Ah!”

“Oops!”

The nobles of the war burst into an unfortunate elasticity.

As the Dark Elves approach Manus' rear, so does Roan.

We are forced to be ambushed.

Right then.

Ewwww!

With a heavy voice, the swift Dark Elves bounce from behind you.

Kuaaaaang!

He crashed into the walls of the Feud with a loud bang.

“Oh.......”

“Ah.......”

The nobles burst into resilience.

Everyone's gaze leads to Manus' back.

It's the same with Roan.

He smiles bluntly and looks at the man who blew up the Dark Elves.

“I thought there might be something else. ”

Soft voice.

Manus looks away curiously, looking at Roan.

“Ah.......”

Immediately, I squeezed my lips, and elasticity poured out.

Person standing guard on his back.

He was nothing but Abed von Persion, his father.

“Oh, how…? ”

He was so surprised that he could not connect the horses.

Abed, who was limping the whole time, straightens up.

He taps Manus on the shoulder and looks at Roan.

“It's hard to understand in the world.......”

A heavy voice echoes the battle.

“A lot of surprises. This is just one of them. ”

It was the same as what Roan just said.

A heavy silence settles in the battle.
