Episode 280 He is more toxic than a warlock (2)
Honor is precious.
It is never an illusion.
Unless you live alone on a deserted island, honor is a truly great and important asset for human beings who live among other people. Such cases can even be commonly found in everyday life.
What if the League of Lizard game level is diamond or challenger? You can immediately gain great envy and respect among your friends.
What if you received your first paycheck and gave your parents, relatives, and elders a gift of thick underwear and a generous allowance? Oh my, our Taengdaeng has grown up so well. I can hear praise over and over again, saying, “He has grown up well.”
Or, at the very least, you can make a good impression on those around you by simply greeting the apartment security guard and cleaning lady kindly on a regular basis.
All of those things are small honors that create an evaluation of a person and lead his or her life little by little in a better direction. To that extent, honor is like a social food that cannot be separated from the human race.
But what if you lose that honor?
What if an entity like the imperial family of an empire, rather than an individual, loses its honor? What will happen?
“Yeah, so why?”
Rachiel smiled broadly.
And then he shamelessly looked at Anansha, who had just shouted out resentment towards him.
“Did you call me?”
“….”
that.
Is he crazy?
Anansha ground his teeth. Both thighs were completely broken. It hurt so much that I broke into a cold sweat. The sword of the damn crown prince’s black-haired bodyguard was already pressed against his neck. In other words, it was completely suppressed.
Anansha gritted his teeth and protested.
“You made a promise! “Prince of the Empire!”
I screamed with the feeling of vomiting blood.
So that everyone in the plaza can hear. So that we can remember the promise the crown prince said earlier. So that everyone can finally condemn the crown prince’s actions that betrayed his trust. So that an atmosphere favorable to you can be created.
“Prince! You definitely made a promise! Right here! In front of everyone! No one from the imperial family will attack me or attempt any form of arrest! however! “You’ve already forgotten that promise!”
“Yeah, no. “Do you remember?”
“….”
“I promised not to attack. “It hasn’t even been five minutes yet, so there’s no way you’ve already forgotten it, right?”
“But why!”
“Can’t I wake up?”
“…what?”
“Is it okay to break a promise?”
“Of course…”
Anansha was speechless for a moment.
He was in such great confusion.
Of course, promises should not be broken. Aren’t you making a promise not to break? Isn’t that a moral and universally valid common sense that any good person should have? Maybe I was wrong?
It’s not. My common sense is correct. It has to be right. Only then can we at least have hope that this world is a warm place where we live and trust each other. This is how it should be in a healthy society.
‘But…’
Prince, why can he so shamelessly and confidently say such anti-human, inhumane, and damning things about breaking his promise? Even in front of everyone?
Anansha, who escaped from the tunnel(?) of chaos that had invaded her for a very short time, shook her head and shook away all the distracting thoughts. And I felt a greater sense of absurdity and justified anger than before.
“You can’t wake up!”
“Oh yeah?”
“of course! “This honorless bloodline of the imperial family!”
criticized. I cried out loud. I thought I would have nothing to say anymore even if I was criticized like that. Of course. Because he said that if he attacked him, the imperial family would lose its honor. So now the Magentano Imperial Family is a tainted family. He deserves criticism and pointing fingers from everyone.
It’s deserved… But…
“Yes, it’s true that there is no honor.”
“…what?”
“Swear at me. “That’s okay, right?”
“What…”
Anansha was dazed.
Rachiel smiled even more shamelessly. But his eyes were different.
“Warlock? I understand that you are angry. You’re right. I made a promise and broke it. As a result, our Magentano royal family lost its honor. Even if you get criticized, you won’t have anything to say. But… wouldn’t the loss of honor by compromising with an enemy who insulted the royal family be greater than breaking a promise?”
Rakiel’s voice suddenly calmed down. His eyes had a colder glow than anyone else in this plaza.
“Of course, the honor you lose by compromising will be greater. more. Even more so.”
Rachiel’s cold words continued.
“So I, Rachiel Adria Magentano, declare. From today Magentano’s name is tainted by broken promises. “But instead, I declare with my tainted honor that there will be no compromise in any form with the enemy who despised Magentano.”
“….”
Goosebumps appeared all over Anansha’s body.
He was finally able to fully realize it. I was deceived. He saw the crown prince too easily. I had no idea it was this type of poisonous tumor. But it was already too late. I am willing to give up my honor. Instead, I will definitely slaughter this group that has insulted the royal family. This is the price you pay for throwing away your honor.
So how will people evaluate this?
Shall we criticize Magentano?
no.
Rather, I would praise it. They will admire the boldness of willingly throwing away one’s honor to reject the appearance of weakness.
“B but…! “Didn’t you make other promises?”
Anansha shouted as if grasping at straws.
“If you attack me! How will the Emperor keep his promise that he will be excommunicated from the Holy Order!”
That would be more frightening than losing one’s honor. The emperor and the empire are one and the same. What if the emperor is excommunicated? The entire empire is also excommunicated. The same goes for all nobles and citizens of the empire. Will they easily accept that they have been excommunicated overnight? no. never.
‘The repercussions would be too great to even handle that!’
Anansha laughed bitterly.
honor?
You can ignore it, but the excommunication would be difficult to handle, no matter how crazy the crown prince is.
It was a moment when I thought…
“Hey Pope?”
The crown prince turned his head. Where his eyes are directed. Next to the podium. There was a chubby old man who was heavily guarded by paladins. It was the Pope.
Rachiel asked the Pope.
“I would like to ask the Crown Prince of the Empire, Rachiel Adria Magentano. I believe you have just heard the conversation between me and the warlock.”
“I have heard everything, Crown Prince of the Empire.”
“Yes, thank you. So I would like to ask the Pope. Today, the Magentano royal family and I broke our promise to the warlock. The Holy Pope must have seen this whole situation, right?”
“Of course I watched, Crown Prince of the Empire.”
“So, will His Majesty our Emperor be excommunicated according to the terms of the promise made to the warlock?”
“Of course, Crown Prince of the Empire.”
“When and how will you be excommunicated?”
“I will excommunicate you now, Crown Prince of the Empire.”
The Pope smiled meaningfully and made the sign of the cross in front of his chest. A faint golden wave embroidered the air along the sign of the Holy Sign and then disappeared.
“It’s done. “Hereby, I officially declare that the Emperor of the Empire, Asterion Testarossa Magentano, has been excommunicated from the Holy Church.”
A declaration of great significance was announced dryly, like unveiling a breakfast menu. Upon hearing that, Anansha laughed bitterly and Rakiel smiled calmly.
“Then Pope?”
“Yes, Prince of Magentano.”
“Our Majesty, you were just excommunicated. Is it possible for you to be reinstated?”
“Of course, Prince of Magentano.”
“When and how will a lottery be possible?”
“I will give you the lottery now, Crown Prince of the Empire.”
The Pope smiled happily. He also drew the sign of the cross in front of his chest. Golden waves, clearer than before, followed the hand gestures and embroidered the air.
“It’s done. “Hereby, I officially declare that the Emperor of the Empire, Asterion Testarossa Magentano, has been restored to all his rights as a believer that he lost when he was excommunicated from the Holy Church.”
Also, a declaration of great significance was announced half-heartedly, like a subway arrival announcement. Now Anansha could not laugh. Rachiel smiled even more shamelessly and looked back at Anansha.
“Did you hear?”
“….”
“It was only for a moment, but the excommunication became clear?”
“….”
“So you got everything you deserved for breaking your promise?”
“….”
“Ah, it only lasted about 10 seconds, but the situation in which the entire empire, along with His Majesty the Emperor, was excommunicated was a truly tragic, terrible, and extremely dark situation. yes?”
“….”
“But I quickly won the lottery.”
“….”
“I’m so glad haha.”
“….”
Hey, you son of a bitch!
Anansha realized.
ruined.
It’s completely over.
All the grand goals and elaborate plans he had had were completely ruined.
‘No…’
I tried to create a situation where I made a public contribution using black magic. Through this, we tried to elevate black magic to a place protected by imperial law. They took root within the imperial society, attracted warlocks from other tribes, and attempted to devour the empire from within.
That’s how I tried to build a kingdom of black magic.
‘Everyone…’
That’s the end.
All of the family members who had been raised as elites for 100 years were lost. The mental control he had placed on Javilon was lifted, and he found himself in a state where he could not even dream of escaping, with both his legs broken.
“….”
I don’t like that.
I don’t want it to end like this.
“Damian. Arrest him.”
The crown prince’s order was given. The black-haired guard called Damian raised his sword sheath. Could it be that he wants to hit me with that one more time? On the other side, I could also see the Royal Guards rushing in. In the meantime, there was hardly any room to escape.
finished.
Completely.
But I don’t like that.
‘So I…’
I don’t want it to end like this. It is not for this reason that I have developed my strength to such an extent. Besides, I still have one last resort left. It’s something I never wanted to use, but can only be used once in my life. After I use it, I won’t be myself again.
I have one final means that is more powerful than anything else.
‘Let’s use that.’
There is no other way than that.
The moment of realization and decision.
…Suddenly!
Anansha clenched his fists. He closed his eyes and knocked on the door of the being that lived inside him 200 years ago. The source that allowed him to exist as a blood-flame warlock. The secret to being able to train and control vampires while still being human.
The piece of ‘Vampire Lord’s True Blood’ that was crystallized in his heart became mushy. It melted. It changed from a solid to a liquid, from a gem to a drop, and spread throughout the body.
Next moment.
“…!”
His blood-red eyes widened and gave off an ominous flash. A blood flame of destruction and re-creation. The cold-blooded impulse to kill. The power of the ruler of the night began to manifest through his body.
Thanks to that, Rakiel thought as he saw it.
I thought it would be delicious if I pulled that out and made it into medicine… no, it would be really bad.
