I Became the First Prince

“We have to turn the army around. ”

In Agnes' words, I became bruised.

"What are you talking about? What are you going to do?

In my words, she was a silent answer.

"Have you forgotten how many people died coming all the way here? I don't know how much more blood you'll bleed if you step back now.

“But we still have to go. ”

Think again. This is a chance to wipe out the Gigantes. This kind of opportunity doesn't come easy.

I persuaded her several times.

Taking the Citadel right in front of your nose is the most effective way to reduce your allies' damage, and it's the only way to end the war a little faster.

But Agnes did not overturn his decision.

“I will repent.”

"Ann!"

I stopped shouting in a resolute voice that I did not even have room for words.

It was impossible to turn the army around now.

Many died while we were here.

It is the Citadel of the enemy that can only be reached by trampling on the blood they shed and crossing the corpse.

Agnes has also suffered countless injuries, and has handed over such a mortal costume.

This was the only chance I could barely catch after being a Manshin Chang.

But now he's repenting.

Everything was going back to nothing.

Wasn't it your goal to end the war a little sooner and change this damn world? But now you're gonna turn the army around? You left Gigantes' home in front of you?

I couldn't convince her, so I kept convincing her.

Then what happens to the dead first!

“Gruhorn.”

Agnes called me quietly.

“I know you loved them as much as I did. ”

"Who cared about people who didn't even know my life was precious?"

“You loved it, so now you're pissed. In case they spill blood, their deaths become dog deaths. Isn't that why you're angry? ”

She called me back because she tried to yell at me again.

“I don't want that to happen either. ”

The excitement sank in a soft voice like a tire.

“But that doesn't mean that our fortress will be trampled on by the elderly and the children. ”

Think carefully. You're not a rural girl who knows nothing now. Commander in charge of the East-West and North-West Fronts. There are a lot of troops deployed on the front lines, but only you and your troops are waiting to win.

“As you say. Gruhorn. I have a duty to end this war quickly. ”

She grabbed me tight.

“Not livestock, not slaves. I hope that the day will come when the world will be able to live like a man. ”

Her hand, which gripped me tightly, trembled finely. It was only now that I felt her feelings that oppressed her. Her desperate desire to end the war sooner or later reached me.

“But it's not my job to create that world. ”

Her voice was resolute without saying so before.

“I can't. ”

Speaking of the impossible, there was no wavering in her voice.

"I piled up countless murders. I left myself in the madness of the battlefield several times. Now, even in this moment, the fire of hatred is burning in me.

The rural girl who was footing no longer existed.

“The same is true for all soldiers and knights on the front lines. ”

Every bare flesh revealed was full of scars, and there were only a few knights who turned over countless pieces of blood.

“We need to create a new world. ”

A world made by swordsmen who draw swords when they are twisted.

A world full of war-torn madmen.

The twisted world created by the crooked.

“That would be quite a ■ world. ”

Agnes grows small because it's horrible to imagine.

“So, to create a new world, one must have a pure soul that is not distorted by the madness and hatred of war."

That's the next generation of kids.

“The world they created is the new world I wanted to see. ”

I think children are the most important thing to protect in this war.

“They are our future and our possibilities. ”

Her gaze was toward the far rear somewhere.

“If we don't keep it, we lose the future and we lose it. ”

And he turned to me again.

Then what's Anne gonna do after the war?

“I want to wander the new world with you and watch this. ”

"Hardship is hardship."

I grumbled small, looking at her smiling at what was good.

But I had already given up persuasion.

It won't be easy. Gigantes won't just watch us go back. It's going to be harder to get back here.

“When was it ever so easy? ”

As always, I was forced to follow what she wanted.

"Send a messenger first. If there are any men in the force who can afford it, we'll have time until we get back.

Agnes stares at me.

And if one of our kids tries to stop Gigantes from infiltrating the rear by hitting the kids with their fast feet... look at it with those eyes. I feel bad about that look.

I said that I felt bad about smiling, and Agnes' smile became more intense.

So we had to turn around with the citadel in Gigantes' command in front of our nose.

“Let the Legion of Iron Blood just move forward. ”

If it wasn't for someone who came just before that, it would have been Philly.

“We will deal with Gigantes who have infiltrated the rear. ”

It was a young knight of the Allied forces who joined to attack Gigantes' command.

“If you take charge of the rear, I will attack the citadel before your eyes tomorrow. I assure you that the opportunity for you to return to the rear and stand before the giant king will never come. ”

The article, which was not Agnes' warning, was not shaken, despite the warning.

“How can you cross that citadel without a legion of merciless blood? ”

Agnes also told me honestly how she liked the honest reaction.

“If you stay on the battlefield like this, you may be able to weave a few more passages of heroic poetry, and perhaps get a passage of myth. But you really won't regret it. ”

“If you turn your back on those you have to protect, will the old horse be worth nothing? ”

The children are the most important being in the world right now, and she laughs out loud after a long time.

“Your words make my heart truly thin. But your father would have thought differently. ”

The first difficulty came to mind in the face of an article I had only contemplated.

“My father would understand. ”

“Your father? Do you really think so? ”

The knight turned his gaze when he swallowed.

That evening, the knights soon left to lead the troops and knights who followed them and to save the Citadel of the Rear.

And when we knocked down Gigantes' stronghold, we heard that they also succeeded in defeating Gigantes' troops who had infiltrated the rear.

We also heard that he had decided to promote posterior stability instead of returning to the front.

“How could such a straightforward child come out under such a stubborn little man? ”

Agnes, who heard the news, laughed with great suspicion.

Maybe he is the talent to create a new world with the next generation.

That was closer than I expected.

But unfortunately, her expectations have not been met, so we have not heard anything about the article since.

But me and Agnes carved the name of the young knight in their hearts without forgetting it.

The name of that article.

* *

This is the land that Roland is guarding.

As soon as I heard the name that flowed out of the mouth of the Three Princes, I fell into oblivion.

It was the name of an unforgettable knight who, on our behalf that day, turned all the glory behind us and headed backwards.

"Your sun will never rise here.

The article spoke to me with a deliberate attitude as it was then.

A great war that ended a long time ago, so it looks like it was left somewhere.

It's like the Eus III brothers and the royal knights showed up before me 400 years later in the same way they did in the past.

However, it was not the same.

What the Eus III brothers and the Royal Knights saw was something that was already done or apparently existed.

Go back, Idrian Leonberger, traitor of humanity. With Gigantes, whom you led.

But Roland's eyes were chasing an imagination that didn't even exist.

The royal knights couldn't accomplish their mission.

I didn't even feel it for him.

Roland was just a trace of the past.

There's not even a reason to stay in this world.

The only thing he and the Death Nights had in common was the fact that someone had drifted through the boundaries of life and death.

And that someone probably did.

“Fucking Bourgogne."

It was the place of the Emperor.

The eyebrows of Roland, who saw me grinding his teeth, soared.

"Don't say that name!

I felt the flow of Mana that could be found by the old knights in his body.

The power and vigour of the knight, who made the least of the heroes, flowed.

In the presence of an ancient aura that was inherently different from that which the knights of this era aroused, I was a little but delighted.

“After all, you've made it. ”

Roland's accomplishment, who turned his back selflessly in front of the path of glory, was insignificant. I'm glad I can confirm that even now.

“Poor Roland. ”

It was more than that.

The fact that a man who cared for the helpless more than anyone else pushed countless peoples into limb while he was unaware of himself.

“Your last words are so instrumental. ”

It was so sad that the shining soul was nothing more than a ghost in the flesh of the insignificant.

My end is not so humble as to be sympathetic to someone like you, and I didn't face it right away.

It's all over, and already his time has passed, and there are no more people who remember the old horses that he devoted his entire life to.

I just didn't know it.

There was only one thing I could do for Roland like that.

“The war is over. ”

I would like to declare that his time is over.

“He shook his sword, and blood flowed into the river, and the flesh made the earth rich. ”

It was all about singing a verse from the end of time.

I assure you, all he can get through this song is complete extinction, which cannot even be a rest.

“I will renew this land with the blood and flesh of giants. ”

I lifted the sword.

The glorious golden clergyman soars to the end of the sky.

Opening Wall.

Roland squeezes his lips and raises his sword.

It will be one of the many stars in the night sky.

"Somewhere in this world it will shine for those who seek me.

At that moment, the stun that overturned the Giant King fell towards Roland.

* *

Ah...

Roland stares at me, ignorant.

Then his two arms disappeared from under his shoulders without a trace.

Roland, who was staring at the two arms that had been cut off, asked me.

"Why did you turn the sword?

I answered honestly.

"Because of your amusement."

Hearing that poem, I couldn't wield the sword.

Tsk. I don't even know how I got down on the same human being with such a weak heart. No, it's too weak.

Roland fills his tongue.

"I swear I've never seen such a poem. That would be a passage from a philosophical myth.

I nodded quietly to his question.

But I liked the second poem more than the first one. Do you know the name of that poem?

“The poem of the soul. ”

"The Syrah of Soul." What a sight.

The gaze of Roland, who nodded his head, turned to his two arms, which were cut off again.

Grumpy.

He watches the flame of the soul burn in its truncated cross section for a long time.

"I don't know. I don't know. It is unlikely that a man with such a poem would climb over humanity for the sake of self-indulgence. Hopefully your sword will be pointed at the right place again.

His speech became more frequent.

His soul, which did not even have the right spirit, would slowly begin to burn in the flames of the soul.

Even in the face of the fear and suffering of extinction, he merely deliberated.

Can you do me a favor?

“If only you could listen. ”

"Don't hurt people who don't have the strength to fight.

Even at the last moment of extinction, it's still the answer I can give to a poor knight who wanders through the realities and imaginary boundaries.

“They won't hurt one. ”

Now there was only one word that didn't mean anything.

"May tomorrow be glorious for humanity.

Roland closes his eyes, reciting a small word with a satisfactory face.

Pass.

I heard something scattering like a hallucination in my ear.

It was probably the sound of a poor soul who had wandered off to an end.

I didn't know.

Whether the poem of the soul would have given his soul rest rather than extinction, and if so, whether there was a place for his soul to rest that drove the innocent to their limbs.

I just wished.

“Have a good rest. ”

The glorious sun, the moon that could not shine on the whole night, the soul that just wished to remain one of countless stars, finally hoped for peace.

“The last article in Bourgognega. ”

He's not the one who pays for that karma.

"Roland de Bourgogne."

Even the soul of a child is the father who has been affluent and corrupted.

If it couldn't be drawn, I would have made it myself.

It's comforting.

“Shuck!”

A scream dug into my ear.

“Oh, it hurts! ”

The original owner of the body, who was once taken from Roland, was waking up and screaming.

The Emperor combed it, but now it's the broken Soul Bowl, the Three Princesses.

"Sa, save me! You're so sick!"

He rolls the floor and shouts endlessly.

In both arms, the fire of the soul still burned.

Originally, the fire had to spread all over his body.

But he's no ordinary human being, the Apostle of the Month.

His severed arms are playing and burning over and over again.

It will take a lot of time for the fire of the soul to completely turn his body into ash.

And that's probably enough time for him to get to the eclipse.

(chuckles)

I grabbed the necklace of a threesome who was screaming to death, rolling all over the floor.

“Ugh.”

He's suffocated and pulls his face together.

“Tell the Emperor. ”

He held his breath close.

“Whatever you've prepared, whatever's left of you. ”

I was struck by the upheaval and terror of my entire body, and the trident stopped my feet in agony.

“I will finally come before you. ”

Roland's eyes turned to me without a dull mate that was not even comparable to it.

“So wait. ”

Looking into his eyes, he said a word, a word of bitterness and salt.

“The Last Day that will come to you. ”

“Yes, the last day that will come to you...”

The third prince was dumb, so I recited my words.

Flip.

I beat him to the ground.

He rolled over the floor with no balls. He got up and started running.

Somewhere in that plain, towards the direction of eclipse.

I also followed him.

The eclipse was now too straightforward.
