Chapter 463 Epilogue, New Days (7)
Just after magic communication is cut off.
Hector’s Royal Knight Commander Butler asked with a worried face.
“Are you sure you want to cross the border? If Valhalla doesn’t back down, a problem that could have been resolved peacefully could turn into a war. At that time, regardless of victory or defeat, Hector must also prepare for considerable damage.”
“I agree with what Commander Butler said. This issue will not end with halfway results.”
This is something that has already been discussed beforehand.
However, when the war was right in front of their eyes, Hector’s leadership once again confirmed the king’s will.
Edwin Hector said.
“I also hope that the matter will be resolved in a peaceful way. Some may say that this incident is nothing, but that thought itself proves Hector’s status. If only we had the same strength and power as Dmitry. Was it possible for Count Kazuri to even think of revenge with violence? This is disregard for us. Thinking that it wouldn’t be a problem if he touched Hector’s people, he did it without thinking about what happened next.”
The world has changed.
Hector, who had to endure in the past, now has the strength to raise his voice.
“Hector’s history is marked by defeat. When it was strong, it knelt against Valhalla, and when it was called a weak country and was ridiculed, it did not raise an issue even after being subjected to the conspiracy of the Cronus Empire. But now it is different. Hector, who has been reborn as the kingdom of magic, will not repeat the mistakes of the past. The work of Baron Stuart is an example proving the present. Even he, a nobleman, suffers such an injustice, how many ordinary people of Hector must suffer. So I think we need a clear precedent. A precedent that will make us dare not think lightly of what happens to Hector!”
continental war.
Edwin Hector went to war with Dmitri and learned the importance of precedent from Roman Dmitri.
Hector was in a turbulent time.
At this point in time when the future can change depending on what decision you make in the future, it was decided that an incident to prove Hector was needed.
Against him, Valhalla was perfect.
Valhalla, which still considers itself an empire, did not lower its nose in any case, and if it were to destroy them, Hector could absorb all the status of the empire.
of course.
Sacrifice will follow.
However, Edwin Hector knew well that even in a peaceful era, one cannot live only in peace.
“If there is a war, many people will die. I will ask you. Do you think we will lose the war?”
“… Not really.”
“Yes. We know that Hector is strong. In order to claim our rights, we must show the world that we have become this strong. The way to ensure peace is not a peaceful solution, but the power to defend oneself. Hector’s people will no longer suffer if we prove our strength, just as the Dmitri Empire rules the world and peace has come. In a turbulent world, this is a reality we have to deal with at least once.”
He vomited a strong will.
Edwin Hector’s presence swelled, overwhelming Hector’s leaders who were watching him.
Hector’s Star.
He was not meant to remain as the king of a small country.
He hoped that Hector would be recognized as one of the great powers when he stepped down from the throne.
Just like they attacked Cairo for Hector.
Edwin Hector put the interests of his country first.
“If Valhalla takes a step back, we will set a precedent that will set a foothold as a great power. But if you don’t back down. We are ready for war and will wage war against Valhalla for the future.”
The will was gathered.
The people who were fascinated by Edwin Hector’s aspirations raised their voices as if they had promised.
“I follow the orders of His Majesty the King!”
“I follow the orders of His Majesty the King!”
“I follow the orders of His Majesty the King!”
That moment.
Hector became one.
At the command of the royal family, Hector’s army crossed the borders of Valhalla.
* * *
Hector’s decision.
Fire fell on Valhalla’s feet.
Upon hearing the report that they were advancing without hesitation, Valhalla’s leadership spoke in a trembling voice.
“… It would be a big deal if there was a real war. Hector is not the Hector of the past. As King Edwin Hector was recognized as the Archmage, many wizards, including the sky, became Hector’s members. They are now called the Mado Kingdom. The moment a war breaks out against them, who have tremendous magical power, Valhalla cannot guarantee victory.”
“you’re right. Besides, Edwin Hector is a master of war. If he who made a revolutionary contribution in the Continental War leads the war, you don’t know what will happen in the future.”
Everyone was terrified.
Valhalla was still called the Empire.
However, their reality was not the same as before.
Although it still had strong national power, it could not overwhelm Hector as it did when it was called the Yangdae Mountains.
The gaze was focused.
It belonged to the emperor.
I believed that he would tell me what was right if he had made wise choices in the face of confusion.
The Valhalla Emperor said.
“We are cornered. Even if we cannot guarantee victory, we are not allowed the option of withdrawing.”
“Your Majesty the Emperor!”
“The past tells the future. How do you think Valhalla was able to establish an empire? Valhalla was once just a kingdom nestled in the southern jungle, but it laid the foundation for a leap into an empire by defeating Hector, a great power at the time. It is the same now. If the Valhalla Empire shows even the slightest weakness against Hector, the same situation will arise as we sucked Hector’s Aspect. So I did not accept the request for an apology from Baron Stewart.”
Their positions were different.
Hector is for Hector, Valhalla is for Valhalla.
I made the decision I thought was necessary.
Just as Edwin Hector finally crossed the border, the Emperor of Valhalla also had to think about the future of Valhalla.
“We all know that war is not the best solution. But Hector’s actions are driving Valhalla into a corner, because we don’t want war. Hector would not have dared to cross the borders of Valhalla if we had been able to afford any options. do not back down We will prepare for war with Hector from this time forward and prove to the world that Valhalla is alive and well.”
Their desire for each other flared up.
If the opponent’s intention is obvious.
will respond to it
The Emperor of Valhalla was also a person who rose to this position after experiencing a series of battles before birth.
“Believe me. Valhalla is not over yet.”
War.
It was the moment when the peace collapsed.
* * *
Valhalla Border.
Foremost defensive positions.
Countess Anelka, commander of the border guards, looked ahead.
He showed a stern expression at Hector’s banner fluttering in the distance.
“Now war is inevitable.”
Just now.
An order came from the top.
He hoped to avoid war as much as possible, but Valhalla had already made a decision.
[As soon as Hector comes within range, strike first. Hector has already crossed the irreversible river with Valhalla, and Valhalla will prove the empire’s potential with a strong response.]
Zek.
I raised my hand.
At Count Anelka’s signal, the wizards all prepared magic.
an imminent situation.
As ordered by the superior, the moment they come within range, they will attempt an attack, and from then on, no compromises are allowed.
A fight that ends only when one side admits to surrender.
The past three years have been really peaceful, but in order to secure each other’s interests, Valhalla and Hector broke the peace.
The soldiers looked nervous.
It was then.
Finally, the moment Hector came within range, a voice stopped Count Anelka from giving orders.
“All-arms ball… .”
“Commander! We must stop fighting!”
It was a sudden situation.
Countess Anelka, speechless, looked at the soldier, who gasped for breath.
“An order has been issued from the Empire of Dmitry. It is Dmitri’s order to stop the war in Valhalla and Hector right now and attend the international conference.”
Dmitry.
Because of that name alone, Count Anelka had no choice but to stop attacking.
* * *
Dmitry.
A negotiating table was set there.
Chris, who hosted the event, said in a situation where the Emperor of Valhalla and King Edwin Hector were seated.
“I understand the situation. So, what is the purpose that each country really wants?”
chris.
He was entrusted with the full power of the emperor in such matters.
Since he could be said to be a replacement for Roman Dmitri, Edwin Hector spoke in a polite tone.
“It’s a simple matter. Count Kazuri made a mistake. If Valhalla acknowledges that fact and shows an attitude of sincere apology, Hector Kingdom will not make the problem any bigger.”
“King Hector. That attitude is the problem. Valhalla is not simply saying that we are not responsible in this matter. Hector brought personal problems into the realm of the state. How can we accept Hector’s request when his intentions are certain to be impure?”
“So are we. Is there any reason to settle things peacefully when the perpetrator does not display the perpetrator-like attitude?”
Emotions deepened.
set of circumstances.
Chris read Pando.
I figured out why this happened.
‘It must be that they don’t want to step back from each other. From the moment the issue is raised, the two countries cannot back down, even out of pride. If I did, it would be like proving myself weak.’
understood.
their situation.
The problem was the process of resolving the situation.
Chris said.
“His Majesty Roman Dmitry won’t intervene in anything that doesn’t break the law. The same goes for this case. If the war had been fought due to due process, Dmitry would have neglected the problems of the two countries. But why do you think I arranged this place?”
His eyes changed sharply.
Edwin Hector.
He knew things would turn out like this.
if the due process has been followed.
Obviously, it would not have been directly linked to war.
The conflict between Count Kazuri and Baron Stuart was actually very trivial, so it was highly likely that it would have been concluded with an appropriate judgment.
Edwin Hector knew that and moved quickly. It was because Hector’s will could not be shown if he did not do this.
If only Dmitry hadn’t intervened.
Hector must have seen the end.
“If it’s a matter of war, it should have been judged by Dmitri. If the problem is not resolved through the process, it is okay to start a war from then on. That is the law of this world. Individual life does not intervene, but at least the problem between countries has set the law on the fact that there must be some level of guidelines to proceed correctly. Of course, this is not a compulsory provision, but there has never been a country that violates it. The last three years of peace have been achieved that way.”
I saw Edwin Hector.
he is a great person
Undoubtedly, he is a future hero who will lead the next generation, but he is also included in Dmitri’s realm.
blast furnace.
I had no intention of playing around with his pranks.
“Everyone, please answer. Are you guys trying to break Dmitri’s laws?”
Dmitri’s second son.
Chris showed ferocity.
Opponents are heads of state.
But enough to put pressure on them, Chris was in a completely different position than he was three years ago.
