When I introduced myself, everyone in the banquet hall was in shock.
“He's the Dragon's representative?”
“No, since when did the dragon have a relations.h.i.+p with humans? Schwarzertoyel can't do that…”
“Sounds so weird to me.”
“I don't think he's a normal young man. Since the dragon chose him.”
The empire's men cast curious glances at me.
“I am pleased to announce today that there has been a peace treaty between the great Demon King Odgarsh and the legendary Dragon Lord Schwarzertoyel.”
-Clap Clap Clap!
A round of applause rang from everywhere in the hall. I gave a lengthy speech on how great the Demon King and the Dragon was. It was necessary to buy time until Schwarzertoyel arrived.
He disliked human and demon gatherings. For Schwarzertoyel who has stayed in the mountain quietly for many years, it was something he wasn't used to. So he said he would arrive at the beginning of the event.
After some time, Schwarzertoyel arrived with a little servant girl at his side.
“Schwarzertoyel has arrived.”
A round of applause once again broke out in the banquet hall. Schwarzertoyel came in while frowning as the hall was noisy. He wore a stuffy-looking suit, making him look like an old man.
“Welcome hahaha!”
The Demon King Odgarsh laughed as he was in a good mood. No one would believe that he had a fight with Schwarzertoyel just a week ago.
He was a very moody person so he quickly forgot why he was angry earlier. Now he seems pleased to show off his success to everyone.
You really do think that you are the main star of today.
“Now that both men are present, we shall proceed.”
When I signalled, the servants brought out the table. On the table were two crystal plates holding the contents of the peace treaty.
“This will bring you two together like brothers.”
I glanced at the Demon King Odgarsh and added.
“No, brotherhood may not mean much to you Demon King Odgarsh.”
Hearing my words, Odgarsh's expression became serious. The word 'brotherhood' was a disgrace. No matter how greedy he was, there should be loyalty between both brothers.
Thus, he made great efforts to justify betraying Kaimars.
“Haha,I don't know what you're talking about. It is important to proceed with the peace treaty, so avoid saying nonsense.”
He was perplexed, but he was patient with the situation. But the more I spoke, the more it looked like I wanted to quarrel. Today, I'm going to mess everything up like a mud fight.
“That's not it Your Highness. I just don't think you should treat Schwarzertoyel the same way you treated your older brother.”
“You son of a b.i.t.c.h! What are you talking about in such an auspicious event!”
Suddenly, the atmosphere turned chilly.
The people who were watching seemed to be surprised. I stood relaxed and continued the quarrel with Odgarsh.
“I didn't say anything wrong, did I? Your highness?”
“You lowlife! Shut Up!”
Suddenly, Odgarsh threw the gla.s.s he was holding on the ground.
-Clank!
For a moment, every sound was seized. The atmosphere of the banquet hall that was friendly just now, turned as cold as ice.
Odgarsh looked like he was going to tear me into pieces , but he held himself back.
It was because of the position I had. I was Schwarzertoyel's representative. In other words, if he hits me, he would indirectly be hitting Schwarzertoyel.
“No, isn't it true that your brother was in a bad situation?”
“Are you out of your mind now?”
He asked as if he didn't hear me clearly.
“What do you mean by brother?”
“Well, I'm talking about the previous first Demon King, Kaimars.”
“Huh?-”
Odgarsh wanted to conclude this talk as the atmosphere was turning strange.
“Okay! We will talk about this later. I can't believe you're saying such useless things!”
“It's useless…But Your Highness, would she think so too?”
“What the h.e.l.l are you talking about!”
Instead of answering him, I walked to the middle of the banquet hall. The VIP's who sat together in groups, started to split up to make way. I stopped in the middle of them.
“Listen to me ladies and gentlemen! If you listen to me, you'll not only get the answer to your questions, you'll hear something you will never forget!”
They were all curious. The peace treaty which seemed to flow normally, suddenly turned out this way. No one could take their eyes off me.
“How rude! Someone take him away!”
The Demon King shouted. He is unable to do anything to harm me so he commanded his soldiers instead. Schwarzertoyel intervened.
“Don't you dare lay a finger on my representative!”
As stomps of feet were heard, the hall shook. The soldiers who were coming in my direction suddenly froze in their places when they heard the angry cry from the dragon.
“Dragon!”
Odgarsh seemed furious. He could summon pole axe at any moment.
“Is there a problem?”
“Lord Dragon! Don't you think that the Commander is saying useless things?”
“Well, I don't get what you're saying. He just wants to say something to everyone. Why did you deploy soldiers to stop someone who is speaking? That is Schwarzertoyel's representative!”
“You son of a b.i.t.c.h! Were you planning this from the start?! Were you going to trap the Demon King Odgarsh?!”
Schwarzertoyel laughed.
“Stupid! Have you forgotten the promise you made with your own name!”
I intended to turn this into a wild goose chase. The plan was only possible because Schwarzertoyel had nothing to lose.
Odgarsh, the Demon King, will be humiliated if a fight happens in this event. The peace treaty with Schwarzertoyel which had been announced with a lot of noise will fail and his political position will drop.
On the other hand, Schwarzertoyel has lost no political status nor honour. His reputation was notorious after all, so even if he was scared on the mountain the last time, he only did what he could do to get back at him.
I was about to say something….but suddenly, an unexpected figure walked in.
“Everyone calm down..”
A calm and elegant voice captivated the people in the hall. Those who turn to see who it was, find Roellin and sigh in relief.
In this situation, Roellin who had common sense, stepped forward. Everyone will think that she'll do anything to save the Demon King from this situation.
“Today is a special day for our Demon King, Odgarsh and the owner of the mountain, Schwarzertoyel, to make peace. Violence is not appropriate at times of celebration, so I'm going to suggest that-.”
Roellin then pointed at me.
“Honestly, the boy doesn't know what he's trying to say. And his behavior doesn't seem very suitable for this event. But it's not right for the main people of today's event to fight, so let's listen to Vallastadter Valler. We still have a lot of time left.”
The audience showed acceptance.
“Also I think it's right to let Schwarzertoyel say what he wants to say to Vallastadter Valler as he is his representative. If he says something wrong that doesn't fit the topic, the people are permitted to make him pay.”
In response to Roellin's words, a n.o.bleman shouted
“That's right!”
Then more voices followed.
“Yes she's right!!”
“Let's hear what he has to say!”
Is this Roellin's power? In the blink of an eye, everyone seemed to follow what Roellin said. Everyone was willing to listen to me now.
The people in the hall had mixed decisions due to Roellin's interference, the curiosity of what I want to say and the hate for the Demon King, Odgarsh.
No one stood up, but there must have been someone who didn't want to see Odgarsh's face get dragged through the mud.
Suddenly, I had a feeling that something was about to happen.
That's when a man called Ha.s.sen Kazel stood up.
“Your Highness Odgarsh, allow the dragon's representative to speak. If he tries to frame you, I shall deal with him.”
Ha.s.sen Kazel was very famous to both humans and demons. He was a powerful man and a great swordsman.
“I promise you too, if he does anything useless, I'll take his guts out of his body and turn it into sausages.”
Herjamok, the 14th Demon King of Gluttony and Greed also stood up.
“Are you going to act stubborn?”
Schwarzertoyel asked. Demon king Odgarsh clenched his fist in anger.
“The Demon King clearly made a promise with his own name,right?”
Demon King Odgarsh is being pushed back. Even if Schwarzertoyel may seem like a regular dragon, he was still a powerful creature that no one had defeated.
“Okay! I don't know what you're planning, but it will all be in vain! I'll make you pay for trying to slander this Demon King!”
Even with the anger he showed, I remained calm.
“Hahaha. What do you think I want to say?”
I bowed down to Odgarsh and turned to the crowd.
“Listen to the story I have to tell now! In the past, there was a little girl who lost her father unjustly!”
My voice sounded desperate.
“The little girl who grew up without a mother, lost her only family! But that's not the only pathetic thing that happened! She was raised by the enemy who killed her father!”
Tragedy always grabs people's attention. It was a genre that made everyone emotional. Everyone was sucked into the story I was telling, wondering about what happens next.
“So I would like to introduce you to the protagonist of this story!”
I pointed my finger to the side of the banquet hall. Numerous eyes followed my hand. Their eyes stopped at the maid standing beside Schwarzertoyel
It was a maid who had her face lowered since she entered this hall. Even I couldn't see her face.
As everyone in the hall started murmuring, the maid raised up her head and threw her wig off. The beautiful silver coloured hair flowed down.“That's her! She's from the story!”
This story will leave a big impact on the audience. Because the protagonist has a very high status.
“It's Caroline Rominia Kaimars, the daughter of the previous No 1 Demon King.”
Odgarsh, who was gnas.h.i.+ng his teeth at what was happening, suddenly froze in place.
“What the f.u.c.k!”
He then looked at me, Caroline and Schwarzertoyel and suddenly understood everything.
No matter how strong he is, he was still an ignorant King without wisdom. He seemed to think he deciphered what we were planning, but at the end he brought himself down.
Caroline, who he thought was dead, is alive, a commander of the undead that seemed to know the secrets of the past and Schwarzertoyel, a very powerful dragon.
Perhaps, this was what was going through his head. Because he summoned his pole axe without any hesitation.
Kwaang!
The most powerful weapon in the empire struck the ground with blue lightning.
“Ahh!”
Screams filled the banquet hall. Even if the VIP's were hit, it didn't matter anymore to Odgarsh.
“That's enough!”
He rushed towards me without hesitation. At least, the truth came out in the end. The efforts put in this plan finally paid off.
Things will get worse from here.
“Dodge!”
Schwarzertoyel cried with urgency in his voice. The incredible power from the weapon was charging towards me.
But I was already summoning Ruble Raynae. That is because I have been waiting for this moment for a long time.
oong!
The white sword reveals itself.
“No! You can't beat him with that!”
Caroline intervened and tried to deal with Odgarsh, but she couldn't block the first attack he sent and bounced off the ground, hitting a nearby wall.
Kwaang!
She intervened because she knew that my shabby sword had no chance against the Empire's strongest weapon. But I didn't escape in the short time she bought for me.
Instead, I prepared to fight back.
“Valler-!”
For the first time, the Demon King called my name.
The pole axe came rus.h.i.+ng towards me.
Yeah I could never be on the same level as him in swordsmans.h.i.+p. However, there is still a way.
-I shall activate the wolyeong sword skill.
How long can I last against the 3rd Demon King?
