Battle Race in Romance Fantasy

91 – Oh John Nassen! Hero of the Empire!

The surrender negotiations started after the Empire formally accepted the surrender of the Alliance.

In fact, it is more correct to see it as an unconditional acceptance of the Empire’s demands and the alliance rather than negotiations.

The Empire made its demands in a rational line, and the Alliance has no power to oppose it.

Nevertheless, it took a lot of time because it was so important and sensitive.

The moment when the negotiations between the two countries, which lasted for several days, were finally over.

Mathieu, the representative of the coalition, came out of the barracks with a sigh.

‘It’s finally over.’

I’m tired. I want to go back soon and rest. It was full of thoughts.

Of course, the impact of the battle couldn’t be ignored, but more than that, this place was too uncomfortable.

As expected, it is right for those who wield a sword to train, not engage in desk discussions.

“Mr. Mathieu.”

He turned his head at the voice calling him, and Kyle was standing there.

Mathieu looks at Kyle’s face, smiles slightly, and lowers his head.

For a strong player in the top 10, it could be said to be a very polite greeting.

“Looks like everything about the surrender is over.”

“Yes. Magical communication has already been transmitted to the imperial family, and Grand Duke Shrelitz has even received the emperor’s ashes, confirming all parts that have been shared so far.”

He was a person who had a decisive influence on the defeat and surrender of the coalition.

He was the opponent who defeated, no, defeated him mercilessly.

Nevertheless, Mathieu’s reaction to Kyle was unbelievably gentle.

“You have worked hard.”

“No. It was natural for someone to do it, and I was the right person.”

“You definitely talked about that mana runaway.”

At Kyle’s question, Mathieu nodded his head slightly nervously.

That must be the reason why Kyle, who had not been seen since the surrender of the Union, came to visit him himself.

Lear and Leah are like that, and Jon Nassen reacts very sensitively to that.

Mathieu is by no means stupid enough to not notice that fact.

And really, I know that if I don’t handle it properly, there will be a big problem.

“We have already arrested all involved. We will immediately send it to the Empire, and we are also trying to collect all of the items distributed to the Knights of the Alliance. But….”

“More amounts were released than I thought, and I don’t know exactly who and how much went. As a result, undesirable problems may occur, literally unforeseen problems. What could it be?”

Mathieu drools at Kyle’s words.

When the ridiculous answer of mana runaway came out, I had to be more aggressive in blocking it.

It was believed that if a person wielding a sword became involved in politics, the problem could grow.

So I just kept my mouth shut and watched the situation, but thanks to that, things got complicated.

When I asked the home country, they said that many mana runaway drugs had already gone to ordinary knights.

If at all possible, the Imperial Army beats the Allied Forces and floods into the Alliance, use it.

To fight to the very end and die heroically, for that purpose!

‘It’s fortunate that those who knew about the side effects of Mana Runaway had a reaction. They say they told the truth on their own and even collected the mana runaway agent on their own.’

Cries out for noble sacrifices and desperate resistance.

If you lose, you lose. Because they who used to rule now have to be ruled.

The people below, who were forced to undergo the sacrifice, did not even understand.

No matter how much it is an empire, even if it is an enemy of the alliance.

Basically, shouldn’t we be told to do something after ‘life’ is guaranteed?

Will we all die together if we all ask to die together because the empire has invaded? Try to live

“Still, you will have to work hard until the end.”

Leah appeared from behind Kyle and hugged her younger sister.

Thanks to that, Kyle taps hard on her, saying ‘keeke!’ And asking her to let go.

“I told you. Three girls. Once again, if it’s used in the Alliance again, then it won’t end with us. Now that you’re reflecting and saying you’re going to correct your mistakes, I’m giving you one chance.”

“… I’ll keep that in mind. By any means, we will collect and dispose of all the items spread throughout the association.”

“Damn it. Nu, nu arm please….”

“Did you promise? It’ll be troublesome if you pretend you don’t know later.”

“Surrender, surrender. Sister. I die.”

“I swear. We will do everything in our power to collect and dispose of the item.”

Three things that even the leaders of the coalition cannot do recklessly, Mathieu Philibert.

Even in front of the king of the kingdom he was in, he didn’t have to bend himself.

No matter how noble bloodline or center of power, in the end it’s just a pun when it comes to ‘power’.

But even that Mathieu had to bend his back in front of John Nassen.

No, I had to lie flat on my face and beg for mercy, hoping that it would pass by.

No human would dare to come in front of a huge typhoon.

Tak-tak-tak-

“Noo, sister. Sister. Surrender! Surrender!!”

“Ah! Sorry, Kyle! I forgot to talk about it!!”

“Heuk!!”

Gee, I almost died. I almost died!!

How can you hug your younger brother with all your strength knowing he’s weak, damn it!!

Kyle barely breathes and Leah doesn’t know what to do.

Mathieu just stared blankly at those two.

‘People who look so normal, they look like a sister and a younger brother.’

There were 10, 3, and terrifying things that I just wanted to chew on.

I don’t want to reawaken that existence. I absolutely want to avoid it.

As a strongman, fighting a strongman is of course a joy and excitement.

But no matter how much I think about it, I think it crossed the line a bit. A little, no, I’m afraid a lot.

‘I don’t know about the other provisions, but as far as that damn runaway mana system, everything must be scrapped.’

Mathieu Philibert, the three girls who were not particularly interested in becoming strong on their own.

So he had something very strongly in mind today for the first time.

A mana runaway, a cursed object that makes fun of divine effort and training.

Total eradication of it! Yes, even for the sake of the union, we must eradicate it unconditionally!!

*

On the way back after finishing all the work. Kyle smiled happily.

I also stopped the demons’ plot to mass-produce roiders, and I had a good game.

Especially, the strongman’s romance that Mathieu showed is still in Kyle’s mind.

The image of him steadfastly clashing even though he knew he was going to lose was that of a true strongman.

‘A person like that is a real three girl. The other two cubs… Ugh. Let’s not talk.’

You should not only be strong, but also have some toughness.

You have to be respectful of the process, not just obsessed with the result.

The other two of the Three Girls forgot about that part and paid the price.

The last thing I heard is that you’re both in complete despair.

It’s understandable, as they, who were comparable to the top 10, have now fallen to the level of ordinary knights.

But what can I do? It was their own fault, and I’m just glad I didn’t die.

Rather, it would be better to train at least a little during times of despair.

All the roads are gone, but haven’t you forgotten the way?

If you put in a lot of effort, a 2nd lane can become a 4th lane.

“Kyle John Nassen.”

I feel good, I do a bit of aerobic exercise and run.

From the side, Archduke Schrelitz rode up to the side.

“Can I talk to you for a minute?”

“Yes? Ah… Yes. We can talk, but could you wait a bit?”

Because the heat hasn’t returned to my body yet. I have to run more.

“Okay. I’m sorry if I disturbed you. When you finish, come to my carriage.”

Fortunately, Archduke Schrelitz readily nodded to Kyle’s request.

Seeing that he said he was sorry again, it seems that he was not in the previous round of 10 for nothing.

After that, Kyle, who had finished cardio, took a breather and went to visit Archduke Schrelitz.

All along the way, the knights belonging to the Grand Duke’s family, the ‘Brothers of the Sword’, attract attention.

A gaze of envy, a gaze of admiration, and even a vague feeling of aspiration.

‘There are many strong future friends. You’re raising articles like this… Shrelitz! Pass!!’

Clapping inwardly, Kyle climbed into the Archduke’s carriage.

“Welcome. Um, can I feel free to call you Kyle?”

“Of course. Your Excellency the Grand Duke.”

“Thank you, Kyle.”

Although Jon Nassen is strong, it’s not the Jon Nassen way to brag about it.

He said that hospitality is not something that you want to receive, but that someone else treats you with sincerity.

Baron John Nassen, who had no other education, continued to emphasize that part to his children.

“People like us don’t like to stretch our words. So I’ll start with the main point. Unexpectedly, I was surprised.”

At the words of Archduke Schrelitz, Kyle asked what he meant.

“The treatment of the Union. I knew you would overthrow the entire coalition.”

“Ah.”

“So are you, and so are your older brothers and sisters. He showed great hostility and anger towards the mana runaway system. That’s why I thought I was going to search the whole union.”

That’s right, Grand Duke. I just want to go back and exercise.

I’m still under a lot of stress because I think I’ve lost muscle.

“I want to say thank you for that part.”

“You mean thanks? Why is that….”

“Thanks to that, the atmosphere of the alliance wasn’t overly messed up, and the Empire was able to properly show the appearance of a winner. Think about it. What would have happened if you guys went in and searched all over the union.”

Kyle nodded his head in understanding at the words of Archduke Schrelitz.

I needed John Nassen’s help to make it work, and I was grateful for that.

‘That’s why I’m stepping down because I’m afraid of muscle loss, Archduke.’

It was Kyle who muttered that to himself but just smiled and nodded.

“If you go near the ecliptic, there will be a service ceremony.”

“Yes?”

“The training ceremony. It looks like you’ve already finished your work. You John Nassen this war… Well, is it war? Anyway, I acknowledged that I am the number one contributor to this matter. It’s a medal from the imperial family, so I’m guessing the title will be higher in addition to that.”

I will give you a higher rank, la. I think they will ask for 10 more than that.

For John Nassen, a title is nothing but useless baggage.

“And I mean. According to the news, the 5th princess is directly awarding medals to Kyle, you, your brother, and your sister.”

“Wait a minute. Your Excellency the Grand Duke? Who are you?”

“Your 5th Princess.”

“….”

A landscape is drawn in Kyle’s mind.

On the day of the ceremony, the princess rushes forward to compete properly again.

And her elder brother and older sister break the princess’ earthenware pot.

‘Why is that woman coming!!’

Kyle was afraid that the festival day of the empire would become the day of the imperial family.
