I am the Monarch

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

“Get the fences up and set up a perimeter! ”

“There's nothing to be nervous about, it's still a safe zone! ”

Noisy voices shake the camp.

The knights in silver, glowing armor, move diligently to encourage the soldiers.

In the meantime, an incredibly large barracks are erected in the middle of the camp.

“Phew. It's been a while since I've jogged. ”

A middle-aged man took off his helmet and armor and put out his tongue.

Then, surprisingly, two young women dressed in heavenly robes approached and gasped.

A woman in a troop camp.

It was unbelievable.

However, the middle-aged man enjoyed relaxing relief with the expression that it was very natural.

At that time, the young man who was tidying up the man's helmet and armor carefully approached and bowed his head.

“By the way, Lord. ”

It is very difficult to speak out.

The middle-aged man opened his eyes wide with a faint smile.

“Do you have something to say? Yu.......”

“Youst.”

“Yes, Youst. The Holy Father gave you his own name, right? ”

“Yes, this time you gave me a big burden and even gave me a name. ”

A young man called Eustra smiled and replied.

The middle-aged man gave me a strange look.

‘Cause you gave the Holy Father a lot of money. ’

But I didn't have to reveal my insides.

He smiled softly and looked at Youst.

“Yes. I think you have something to say. ”

“I actually think that..."

Youst hesitated for a moment, then cautiously looked behind his back.

“I'm worried that we'll be able to move on from one another like this. ”

Scary to the end.

“Hahahaha. Youst is a coward. ”

The middle-aged man stood up after waving his hands to push the women away.

He stands at the entrance of the barracks and looks out at the view.

“The movement of the Estia Imperial forces led by Prince Bario is very slow. If we march with them, we could be robbed of all our balls by the Byron Kingdom, the Estelle Kingdom, the Kingdom of DS, close to the Kingdom of Amaranth. ”

Youst shakes his head with a serious look.

“But Lord Bint. Surely the Holy Father has commanded us to move with the Imperial Army. ”

The middle-aged man, who he was, was, amazingly, Ambassador Bain, who was in charge of the circumference of the Inquisitor.

Bind turns his head and looks straight at Yust.

“It's me and the paladins who fight directly on the battlefield. We can change the plan as much as we want. ”

“Well, that's true.......”

Youst was more careful and cautious than before to take a look at Bint for a moment.

“If I move alone and run into the armies of the Amaranth Kingdom..."

When the horse goes on like that.

Bint takes a deep breath.

“Phew. Youst, you really are a coward. ”

He points his finger out of the camp.

“From here to the Kingdom of Amaranth, it is all the land of Byron. There's no way the Armies of the Kingdom would show up here. Moreover, according to the information gathered by the Holy See, the local militia and Special Forces of the Kingdom of Amaranth are all busy carrying out their missions. It means we're not prepared for our attacks at all. ”

Bint points his finger down at his feet.

“In a word, this is a safe zone. Safe Zone.”

“Oh, yes, I see..."

Youst could no longer speak.

Because I felt cold and sharp living in Bint's eyes, smiling softly.

Bind taps the shoulder of Youst, then takes a step toward his seat.

“Youst. Don't worry too much. Even if you meet the armies of the Amaranth Kingdom, our paladins will defeat you lightly. ”

Right then.

“Really?"

An eerie voice echoes through the barracks.

Bint frowns.

“What, what? Really?"

He turns his head to look at Youst.

Youst shakes his hands in surprise.

“I-I didn't say that. ”

He quickly turns his head in the direction of his voice.

His gaze was towards the entrance of the barracks.

Bint turns his head in anger and looks at the entrance door.

There stood a middle-aged man in a travel suit.

It didn't look like a paladin, a priest, or a priest.

“Who are you?”

Bint raises his inner sanctity with a sharp bite.

The middle-aged man smiles and covers his chest with his palms.

He pushes his right foot behind his left and bends at the waist very playfully.

“High Priest Bint. It's an honor to meet you... and not a pleasure. I.......”

The middle-aged man raises his head slightly and looks straight at Bint's face.

His face was filled with a fierce expression.

“I am Rail Baker of the Amaranth Kingdom. ”

Boom.

Immediately, there was a huge shock in the barracks.

Bint frowns and stutters.

“Les, if rail bakers are the nobles of the Rhine Kingdom......? ”

The last word was Youst Street.

“The same rail baker rumored to be a spear prodigy? ”

The middle-aged man, Rail Baker, reaches behind his back and bows his head again, as if waiting.

“It's an honor that the nobles of the Holy See even know the name of a humble whore like me…… not to mention it. ”

The rail shrugs, smiling.

Bint clenches his two fists.

“Never thought I'd see a rail baker in a place like this. ”

Sharp life revolves around his eyes.

“But it was too urgent. A man called the Master of Spears appears empty-handed. ”

The rail raises its hands in shock.

“Oops! It was empty somehow.......”

Overly playful.

Bind soon realized that rails were mocking him.

“Are you making fun of me? ”

A fierce light flashes into my eyes.

“I don't know how we got lucky, but...”

As the horse continues, the rail takes a short sigh and shakes its head.

“Lucky? I already knew you'd be building a camp here five days ago. ”

“What, five days? ”

Bint snorts with a nonsense expression.

“Five days ago, it was the day we left the Holy See. That's when I didn't even confirm the route! ”

“Really?"

The rail looks startled again.

It's like playing a prank.

Bind struggled and struggled.

“This guy keeps.......”

But the horses could not continue.

Because the rails severed their waist, shaking their hands as if to tell them to calm down.

“Think about it. Even though the High Priest didn't know it, didn't anyone else know the route? ”

At this point, Bint ponders for a moment, then nods.

“Yes. There was a guide. ”

He coldly answers Rail's question as if he were possessed by something.

In fact, the paladins, including Baint, had never been to the Kingdom of Amaranth, so they were guides from that region.

“Who's the guide? ”

Raile smiles and asks again and again.

“The Guide....... Hiic! ”

At that moment, Bint instinctively felt a chill all over his body.

A guide.

I couldn't leave anyone in charge of guiding the paladins.

It took me a long time to find the right person.

A long time ago, there was a man who had been in love with the Holy See and had a great vendetta against the kingdom of Amaranth who gave all his wealth to the Holy Father Veldrica.

Veldrica was overjoyed and gave him a new name and entrusted him with the task of guiding the paladins.

He's the one.

“Youst......? ”

Bint's face turns back toward Yust.

But Youst moved ahead of him.

Squeak!

A silver dagger pierces Bain's chest.

“Cough!”

Bind is defenseless against an unpredictable attack.

“Yu, Yust. Yes, why are you......? ”

A hollow, hollow voice rolls to the floor.

Youst and rail shake their heads at the same time.

“My name is not Youst. ”

“Your name is not Youst. ”

The two of them continued to say the same thing as if they had kissed each other.

“My name is.......”

“Your name is.......”

At that moment, even in Bint's mind, I remembered the original name of Youst.

The three voices matched beautifully.

“Clyde.”

“It's Clyde.”

“Clyde.......”

That was it.

As the circumference of the heretic, Bind, who wielded unstoppable power, lost his life in his barracks.

Eust, or Clyde, puts down his sword and exhales for a long time.

“Phew. Obviously this doesn't work for me. ”

He smiles bitterly and looks down at the rail.

“It's been a long time. Baron Baker.”

“Mr. Clyde. I've had a lot of hard times. ”

The rail draws cold and grabs Clyde's hand.

Clyde's bitter smile grows darker.

“No. I couldn't save Earl Iolansfil after all. No hard feelings.”

Clyde was originally the owner of the Clyde top that supported the column lines.

But as Roan finished his succession to the throne and built his kingdom of Amaranth, his position became disgraceful.

I thought it was impossible to run the Merchant Guild in the Amaranth Kingdom by myself.

Desperate times.

But Clyde didn't give up.

He intended to leave the Kingdom of Amaranth and head back to the empire of Estia with the Holy See, where there was originally a trading relationship.

‘At that time, Commander Keefe of Tenebrae came to see me. ’

In Kip's letter, he wrote a plan, or a request, in the name of Roan Lancefield.

‘Infiltrate the Holy Shrine. ’

Roan had no intention of throwing himself or risking his life for Clyde's support of the column.

He paid top dollar for Clyde's ability.

‘I had a long conversation with King Lancefield.......’

I was greatly moved by Roan's sincerity and will.

And as if to flee to the Estonian Empire and the Holy Shrine as if you had been beaten by the Amaranth Empire.

Then I bought the pleasure of Holy Father Veldrica and Holy Father through all kinds of bribes.

However, the rescue of Io, which was originally the goal, was not easy.

‘Then there was a sign that the Imperial Army would be summoned.......’

Clyde has alienated the Holy Shrine and the Estonian Empire with the help of the newly enlisted Ian Phillips and Swift Clark, the Executive Chancellor.

Thanks to this, the summoning of the Holy Father was slowed, and the kingdom of Amaranth was able to buy us some valuable time.

In the meantime, Clyde has become even more daring to finally take on the task of guiding the Paladins with the name Eustre from the Holy Father Veldrica.

“Don't worry, Earl Iolansfil will get it from the other side. ”

The rail smiles and raises its thumb.

Clyde takes a deep breath and nods.

“Well, that's a relief. By the way.......”

He cautiously said his last words, recalling the desperate situation of summoning the Holy Troops.

“Is the Kingdom of Amaranth okay? ”

The rail knocks at your chest with a smile.

“You'll be fine. ”

Bold voice.

“If the Holy Father had the god Devesis.......”

My eyes sparkled and glowed.

“We have King Lancefield. ”

My voice went out of my mind.

Clyde nods silently.

The two eyes sparkle with a firm light, without a slight shaking.

“Friendship or kingdom? ”

After the question of Abed von Persian, there was a terrible silence in the war.

Manus von Persion bites his lips, looking at the small note in his hand.

At that moment, Roan Lancefield, who had fallen behind, slowly approaches.

He smiles faintly, looking at the letter Manus is holding.

“The Holy See has been summoned. ”

A much more bold voice than I expected.

The identity of the letter was the Shrine of the Holy Spirit that the Holy Spirit Church sent to the imperial kingdoms and the royal families.

“West, Holy Father?! ”

“The Holy See summoned the Holy See soldiers? ”

“So, Sa, what about Amaranth? ”

All the nobles scream in surprise.

It was quite metaphorical, even if we did not look at the Bible.

The Kingdom of Amaranth was the only place on the continent where the Holy See was being held.

Abed raises his questions again, expressing his true nature.

“Friendship or kingdom? ”

Manus is still unable to answer easily.

Abed's words continue.

“Not an easy choice. That's the weight of the crown the monarch must bear. If you choose friendship, tens of millions of kingdoms will be swept away in a whirlwind of horrific war. On the contrary, if you choose a kingdom, the people of Persian lands and kingdoms will be at peace, but your heart will suffer greatly. ”

He drives Manus away.

“No one can help you. Choices and decisions are for the monarch. Originally, the monarchy's choice was.......”

When the horse goes on like that.

“You're mistaken. ”

Roan smiles bluntly and cuts his waist.

He looks at Abed and Manus alternately.

“No one can help you? ”

Roan's smile darkens.

“You're welcome. I can help. ”

He speaks in a clear voice to Manus, who was still staring at the shrine with an aggressive look on his face.

“Prince Manus, no. Prince Manus von Persian. Choose a kingdom. That's not enough to shake our friendship. ”

Fair expression and attitude.

Roan wants to ease Manus' troubles.

No, I wanted to teach you that a monarch is not that lonely.

Moreover, now was not the time to fight the Holy See.

‘There is a real enemy. ’

Lunak the Great and Latios of the Tellian Church laughed at him.

Roan shrugs Travis' spear, then slowly steps forward.

Right then.

“King Lancefield. Stop right there."

Manus grinds the shrine and smiles faintly.

It was as if I had put down a heavy burden.

“I, our kingdom of Persian..."

A loud voice fills the battle.

Gulp.

All the nobles listen to Manus' story.

“I will fight alongside King Lancefield. ”

Abed frowns as he watches the situation.

“You would choose friendship over kingdoms? ”

I felt disappointed on my face. Manus shakes his head, looking straight at Abyd's eyes.

“I didn't choose friendship. I, the Monarch of Persion.......”

His eyes were steady without shaking.

“You have selected a definition. ”

The enemy to fight now was not the Holy See.

The Black Legion and the Black Generals were horribly ugly and powerful enemies.

Manus and Roan plan to take on the real enemy.

Roan and Manus' eyes twist hot.

But...

“Stupid…..”

Abed's mind is very uncomfortable and unpleasant.

“Justice cannot protect kingdoms and kingdoms. By choosing the Kingdom of Amaranth, our kingdom will have enemies everywhere. The Kingdom of Light, the Kingdom of Byron, and the Kingdom of Estelle do not leave our Kingdom alone.......”

When the horse goes on like that.

“No, it's not. ”

Suddenly, I heard a fabulous voice from the middle note.

Abed and Manus, as well as all the nobles in the battle, look for the protagonist of his voice and turn their heads.

However, Roan did not look back, with a blurry smile.

He knew who the protagonist of his voice was.

‘Fade nails. ’

Fade nails were the guy who later showed up through the entrance of the war.

Area Brits and Vance Bonde later appeared in succession.

“Greetings. I am Fade Nail of the Estelle Kingdom. ”

Scary to the end.

“Battlefield Fox! ”

“General of the Eastern Imperial Army! ”

The nobles shouted in surprise.

Fade passes by the nobles and approaches Roan and Manus.

After being polite to Abed, he spoke in a bold but clear voice.

“Our kingdom of Estelle.......”

Fade's gaze leads to Roan and Manus.

“Amaranth, I will fight alongside the Persians. ”

“Huff!”

The nobles swallowed up the false wind.

Explosive declaration.

It was a surprise statement.

“What, what? Do you have any idea what's going on? Now you're talking about refusing to summon the Holy Father. ”

Abed frowns and scowls.

Fade nods lightly.

“There was a time when we actually had to fight. ”

At that moment, Abed's eyes gleam and glow.

Roan, who was watching the situation, did not miss the change.

‘There's another secret. ’

In his view, Abed has many secrets that have not yet been released.

But for now, I didn't feel like it.

We were too short on information at the moment.

“I've heard rumors about the fox fade nails of the battlefield. In the Kingdom of Estelle, they praise you for being a hero of the Old Kingdom. But can you make such a big decision without the king's ashes? ”

Abed digs into real-world problems.

Everyone nods.

Fade, however, was still in play.

He looks straight at Abed's two eyes and makes a short gesture.

“I never make any nonsense. ”

Eyes, voices, expressions, vigor.......

Everything was solid without a single jiggle.

I felt a strong will.

“Hmm.”

Eventually, Abed spills a low tear.

At that moment, Roan smiles bluntly and opens his mouth, watching the situation.

“I'm sure Lord Manus would make a fine monarch, as His Majesty has said. ”

Abed frowns.

“What do you mean, the country is going to be ruined? ”

Roan takes a step back.

“When His Majesty ruled the kingdom, there were only enemies around him. ”

His voice was bold, but powerful.

“But we are with King Manus. ”

Twitch.

Manus shudders unwittingly.

Roan smiles faintly and speaks in the background.

“You'll see. The Kingdom of Amaranth, the Kingdom of Persion, and the Kingdom of Estelle will never fall. ”

The voice and vigor echo the battle.

“I…… no…"

Roan extends his arms wide.

I felt Manus, Fade, Area, etc. in my arms.

Soon after, Roan's voice dug into people's ears.

“We will protect it. ”
