I am the Monarch

Chapter 55 Battle Eggs

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

An era of war.

Terrible battles raged on and off the continent.

Bodies piled up like mountains and blood formed a river.

The hissing and screaming continue indefinitely.

It was an age where everyone would rather die without pain.

However, in the Holy Father's Church, which is the cause of all this, beautiful music and laughter flowed constantly.

Gold, silver, and jewelry adorned in spectacular buildings and marble sidewalks.

Dozens and hundreds of soldiers were diligently carrying boxes full of all sorts of precious things on the sidewalk.

“Days. This is too much gift. ”

An elderly man glanced at the soldiers on the terrace of the most magnificent and spectacular building of all.

The identity of the old man who was dressed with a plump purple conquest was Holy Veldrica.

“They are worthless compared to the efforts of the Holy Father. ”

A soft voice flows out from my side.

The protagonist of his voice was a young man with a small body and soft impression.

Veldrica glances at the young man and bursts into horror again.

“Days. No wonder….. as the head of the Holy See, it is natural to pray for blessings to the Holy See soldiers. Earl Crewe Hale. ”

“It's just an honor... to think of you like that. ”

The young man who bowed his head in a polite manner was Earl Cru Hale of the Lucian Empire who visited the Holy Shrine at the request of Roan Lancefield.

"What a rotten creature. ’

Crewe smiles softly, hiding his insides.

Veldrica was more corrupt than I had ever imagined.

‘I can't believe I'm taking a bribe like this. All five days.......’

Thanks to this, the amount of supplies and supplies we brought came to the end of the day.

‘Moreover, people across the continent are suffering from war, and this old man, who has summoned the Imperial Army, is enjoying alcohol and food every day.......’

A deep sigh came out of me by myself.

Veldrica held a fancy banquet every day instead of taking a huge bribe.

The banquet continued throughout the day.

It was a completely different landscape from the outside world, where terrifying situations of killing and killing each other unfolded.

"Unlike Lunak the Great and Latio of the Tellian Church, Black Generals and Black Legions......."

Crewe clenches his fist slightly.

‘The Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit must also look at the hands. ’

It was for the world.

‘Phew.’

Crewe sighs deeply.

At that moment, Veldrica opens her mouth, expressing her regrets.

“The monastery will be over soon, by the way. It's a pity that the time for separation is coming. ”

As he said, the prayer of blessing that lasted for five days, namely, congratulations, is now beginning to come to an end.

It was all thanks to the Shrine of the Holy See.

Crew bows his head with a look of regret, too.

“I will finish the temple well and look again on my way back. ”

At that moment, I remembered a frown full of faces.

“Probably a lot of loot. ”

It meant that it would be full of goods to be offered as a bribe.

‘No matter how much I have to act, it's really disgusting. ’

Crewe squeezes his head together, trying to hide his insides.

Veldrica smiles brightly and nods, satisfied.

‘Amaranth said there are many rare things. ’

I thought I'd get Travias Spear, famous as Roan's lover.

Veldrica's gaze leads to the crew.

‘The more I see, the more I like him. ’

He liked the crew.

It's been a long time since I felt so good.

But that's when.

“Holy Father. Prince Mois Rhone Estia is here. ”

I was relieved of the happy and satisfied voice of the shrine behind the terrace.

The face with the bright smile was distorted to look good.

“Hmm. That's..."

Veldrica looks at the crew with an awkward smile.

“Prince Moist is persistent, too. ”

Crewe shrugs with a terrified look on his face.

“Mo, if it was Prince Moist, he would try to harm me again. ”

My fingertips were trembling.

Veldrica shakes her hand as if to tell you not to worry.

“It's okay. I'm here. ”

He calms the crew down and gives a slight nod to the High Septon.

With his permission, the High Septon stepped back.

After a while, a strong figure appeared on the inside of the terrace.

He was Mois-Rone Estia, the Seven Patriarchs of the Estia.

“Greetings, Holy Father. ”

He lowers his head toward Veldrica and stares at the crew shortly after.

“Earl Crewe Hale. Are you ignoring the Estonian Empire? ”

It burst out of my mouth.

“Oops.”

Crewe stares at Veldrica in horror.

Pathetic, begging for help.

‘Such a weak and cowardly man is the general commander of the Russian Imperial Army.......’

Veldrica has her tongue.

I've heard rumors that the Lucian Empire has a great talent, and that they will go directly to the Holy See to be commanders.

‘It was a rumor.'

I remembered a mocking light in my eyes.

But it didn't matter about skills or talents.

‘It's just right for my taste. ’

Veldrica loves a sleepover crew.

If I kept him close to my heart, I would bring him to the Lucian Empire.

‘I'm going to have to step up. ’

Veldrica shakes her hand at Crewe's pathetic gaze.

“Prince Moist. Don't raise your voice. ”

Soft face and voice like a child.

He holds Moist's hand and smiles brightly.

“You don't like the fact that the Lucian Empire troops are stationed near the Imperial Regium, and you're worried about them, but they don't really care. ”

Why Mois came to the Holy See and mourned.

It was because of the Lucian Empire troops stationed in the fields between the Imperial Regium and the Holy Shrine for congratulations.

At least that's what Veldrica and the Holy See knew.

Veldrica looks at Moist and Crewe face in alternation.

“The Lucian Imperial Army only wants to receive congratulations before participating in the temple. ”

Scary to the end.

“But now our empire of Estia has fallen to the defenses of the Imperial Empire through the Holy See. In this situation, we cannot put a foreign army in front of the Imperial City. ”

Veldrica gives you a short sigh, pretending to think for a moment.

“If you're so worried, I'll use our paladins, paladins, and monks to keep an eye on the Lucian Empire camp. Don't worry too much. ”

Sharp light flashed along the wrinkled eyes.

It meant that I had to stop now.

But Moist couldn't do that.

We still have work to do.

"You rotten old man. ’

He glances at the crew with an unfinished look on his face.

“It's not that I don't know the Holy Father's intentions, but the people of the Lucian Empire are inherently vile, so they don't know what they're planning, smiling in front of them. If you really want to be congratulated, let's move the Lucian Empire camp towards the border. ”

In other words, Veldrica and her High Priestesses were told to follow the Lucian Empire to the border.

The sulphite cracks on Veldrica's bright smile.

An unpleasant aura passed through my eyes.

But now was not the time to fight face-to-face.

The shaft was almost finished anyway.

“Hmph. Hmph. ”

Veldrica shakes her hands as she clears her throat.

Trying to fix the stiff atmosphere.

But that's when.

“Holy Father! ”

An urgent voice erupts from the inside of the terrace again.

It was the same priest who announced Moist's visit.

“What's going on? ”

Veldrica asked as if she didn't feel well.

The synagogue took a look at Moist and Crewe and responded with a trembling voice.

“Mo, the Estonian Empire who came with Prince Moist and the Luis Empire who was stationed outside the Holy Shrine.......”

White face.

“There's a battle going on. ”

Not at all unexpected.

“What, what?! ”

Veldrica frowns.

The synagogue shouted with a loud voice as if it were stuffy.

“The battle between the Estonian Empire and the Lucian Empire is underway! ”

Scary to the end.

“Damn it!”

Veldrica grunts and spits.

Moist, as if he had waited, also uttered a curse.

“Damn! Look at that! Didn't it work out the way I said? ”

He turns his head to look at the crew.

Sharp life flowed through my eyes.

Your right hand grabs the hilt of your waist.

“Cut his throat right now.......”

That's when Moist said it.

“Don't be reckless! ”

Veldrica waves her right hand with an unpleasant look.

Moist's right hand is struck with a momentary, overwhelming aura.

‘Hmm.'

Moist looks a little surprised at Veldrica.

"This old man......."

I knew Veldrica was no ordinary old man.

He was the head of the Holy Shrine who ruled the continent and the father of all the clergy.

I thought it would be that divine, but I didn't think it was enough to ruin my Mana with one gesture.

‘Hehe. Since you are this skilled, are you so arrogant? ’

Moist bites his lower lip slightly.

Crewe grips Veldrica's long sleeve with a terrified look on his face.

“Sa, if we don't get this straightened out quickly, the damage to the Imperium might be imminent." ”

It didn't matter which Imperial Army.

Crewe's hands and voice tremble.

The bars seem to be shaking very modestly.

“Phew.”

Veldrica takes a deep breath and shakes her head.

‘I've got something I need to fix. ’

No, actually, I still have something to take care of, so I had to fix it.

Veldrica smiles as if she has nothing to worry about.

“Don't worry, everyone. I, or our Holy Father, will take care of it. ”

Moist frowns slightly.

“The Holy See? Are you talking about the Paladins, the Monks, and the priests? Most of them went on a journey along the Holy See, so there aren't many people left here.......”

As the horse continues, Veldrica shakes her head, smiling brighter.

“They're not all of the Holy See. ”

He shakes his hand lightly.

The High Septon, who posted the report, quickly fastened his head.

Veldrica raises her chin slightly with an arrogant expression.

“Head north. There.......”

His voice was as arrogant as his face.

“There will be a sacred army. ”

At that moment, Crewe, who was still shrugging with a frightened expression, cried out in surprise.

“Holy Corps! ”

He seemed genuinely surprised.

“Hmm.”

Moist also burst a low murmur.

Veldrica nods, satisfied with their reactions.

‘The Divine Legion is the true power of our Holy See. ’

A secret army that no one knows the true identity and size of.

At last, the sacred army is revealed.

‘Once the Holy Corps arrives, we can stop enough fighting between the Estonian Empire and the Lucian Empire. ’

I was confident.

If I did, I could have gained enormous wealth by biting off the wrongs of the two empires.

The arrogant light flowed into my eyes.

Moist and Crewe, on the other hand, closed their eyes with their mouths closed, as if they had been intimidated by the name of the Divine Legion.

Thanks to this, Veldrica's arrogance grows even higher without knowing the end.

However, Moist and Crewe were cheering themselves up.

Got it!

The two of them took a deep breath and forcibly calmed their excitement.

‘Finally…'

I have goosebumps on my skin.

‘I brought out the Divine Legion. ’

An exhilarating energy flowed from behind my neck.

A five-day play.

The outcome of the play, which was based on disgust, was very sweet.

Everything was going according to Roan's plan.

If it wasn't for Veldrica, Mois and Crewe would be screaming right now.

No, I wanted to raise a glass of toast if I could.

But now was the time to be selfish.

Moist lets out a long sigh with a look of helplessness.

“Hoo. If the Holy Father does that, I will try to appease the soldiers under his command. ”

His gaze leads to the crew.

“Of course, we have to find out whose fault it is. ”

My voice was full of life.

It was an act that had resumed.

“Hehe.”

Crew pops the hiccups and grabs Veldrica's sleeve.

“West, Holy Father. If you don't mind, I'd like to stay here in the Holy See. ”

Veldrica nods, pathetic and pathetic.

“Do it. I'll put some paladins on it. ”

His gaze led to Moist.

“Just in case. ”

It was a horse with bones.

Moist and Veldrica's eyes twist in the air.

"Disgusting….."

"Cocky……"

The unpleasantness of each other rises quickly and vanishes.

Moist lowers his head with a short sigh.

“Goodbye, then. ”

He leaves the terrace shortly after releasing his coolness.

Then Cru lets out a long breath with a relieved expression.

“I think I'll live now. ”

He smiles awkwardly on his crooked knees.

Veldrica glances at him, then smiles faintly.

“Then take a break. I will preach the word of God to those who make a commotion in front of the Holy See. ”

Soft but energetic voice.

Crewe nods coldly, swallowing his thirsty saliva.

Overwhelmed by the energy and strength of Veldrica.

‘Yes, stay down in fear. ’

Veldrica lowers her head slightly, satisfied, and takes a step.

In the end, only crew remained on the terrace.

He still shrugged his whole body in a frightened look.

A typical coward and a coward.

But the inside was completely different.

‘Okay, we're clear to the Holy Father. ’

Everything was as planned.

Now all you have to do is move yourself.

‘Well, let's find out. King Roan Lancefield's godfather.......’

I had a very, very blurry smile on my mouth.

‘Io lansfield. ’
