Their fear has now reached the breaking point. The soldiers who were shouting and threatening Roman eventually chose to attack him first because the threats weren’t working.

The aura swordsmen rushed ahead. With dozens of people attacking together, they were under the delusion that they could defeat Roman Dmitry. And so…

Puak!

The massacre began. Roman’s sword could be seen flashing, and the heads of the aura swordsmen flew in the air. Blood gushed out like a fountain everywhere. The soldiers tried to step back in fear, but Roman followed them right away and cut them down.

The whole place was mixed with bright red blood and deafening screams. Because they followed the nobles, they couldn’t avoid the devil, who was right in front of them.

“… Cairo’s Devil!”

“ACCK!”

The Hector Kingdom referred to Roman Dmitry as Cairo’s Devil on the Southern Front. The people of Cairo thought of it as an achievement that they called him that, but standing on the other side, they could see why he was called the devil.

It was truly overwhelming. As if proving the fact that he was the new number one ranker in Cairo, the aura swordsmen were all dying in vain, unable to attack.

Blood, blood, blood.

And the path opened. In the situation that was dotted red, there was no way to stop Roman Dmitry.

Actually, the power of the nobles wasn’t weak. But they made the mistake of using their power like this.

‘Marquis Benedict, you will fall into the abyss if you decide to hold onto your attachment to me until the very end.’

While challenging the Ranking Matches, Roman Dmitry rendered his opponents useless. People thought it was simply the price of the Ranking Matches, but Roman Dmitry expected a clash with the nobles too.

If he had killed Jayden, the 99th ranker, the nobles would have reacted negatively and sent their swordsmen, but he didn’t. However, if they step away from fighting Roman because of his strength, then people would consider him the strongest. And that was their mistake.

The core forces, including Oscar, all fought against him, yet they all collapsed without being able to stand. In particular, in Oscar’s case, whom he dealt with at the end, he deliberately used mana to destroy the path of his aura. And Marquis Benedict might not have been aware of this.

Roman’s most powerful sword would not simply render a body useless for a certain time, but it would end the life of a swordsman.

From the start until now, Roman Dmitry has been preparing for the clash against the nobles. Marquis Benedict judged the timing to be perfect, but the truth was that he was sticking his head into the jaws of a beast.

Puak!

Knights stumbled and fell around him. The soldiers of the nobles couldn’t even bring themselves to run. They didn’t know if they even had a slight chance to win, so they didn’t rush into this meaningless death anymore.

Step.

Roman passed them and walked forward. Without even paying attention to the soldiers who were trembling in his presence, he just followed Marquis Benedict’s traces while holding his sword which was dripping with blood.

The soldiers just looked away because, if they didn’t, they wouldn’t have the confidence to accept this reality.

Roman moved slowly so his opponent could run away far enough. He headed in the direction where Marquis Benedict had disappeared.

The strongest living power in Cairo, Marquis Benedict, who didn’t even rush to meet the King, was now running with sweat over his face.

‘Fleeing to the palace is not a wise decision. If Roman Dmitry had planned a conspiracy with the King, I could possibly be executed without any resistance. So let’s head back to the estate. If I gather the troops there, I might be able to fully change this situation.’

That was the best decision. And Marquis Benedict was out of breath. The expensive jewelry on his body was falling to the ground, but he didn’t even look back at it.

And the nobles who were on his side were running after him. It was a rare sight to see such influential men running in a group.

Finally, Marquis Benedict arrived near the warp gate.

“Ack, ack. Connect the coordinates to my estate right now!”

“What happene….”

Slap!

There was no time to explain, so he slapped the soldier’s cheek.

“You bastard! Do you not know who I am?! If you have the time to question me, then hurry up and connect the coordinates to the Benedict Estate! If you are even a little late, I swear I will destroy the succeeding three generations of your family!”

“I-I understand!”

All of the soldiers turned pale at the threat and hurriedly connected the warp device. Everyone involved came out and activated the function of the warp gate. It was because only a few personnel were around and they had to do it fast.

The warp gate was known to take a lot of time, but they were able to finish it due to Marquis Benedict’s request. But the problem was that they couldn’t accommodate all the nobles around him.

When Marquis Benedict climbed the warp gate first, they followed him on board.

“You people, follow next!”

“Marquis!”

The faces of the nobles were pale. Warp gates had delays when functioning. It was impossible for all of them to escape now, and they would have to wait for the next turn, and the second usage would take a lot of time. But….

Wheik—

Marquis Benedict turned away from their earnest eyes.

A bright light shone, and then he disappeared.

“Shit!”

“Fucking bastard!”

The nobles cursed. Being the head of the nobles’ faction didn’t matter now. And so the nobles tried to run on foot, but then they went stiff.

Roman Dmitry appeared.

Seeing him holding his blood-stained sword, one of the nobles said,

“… you, please be calm. If you kill all of us, what will you even get? I will die right here, but my family will do everything to get revenge on you. So let me live. If you do that, I will leave the nobles’ faction and follow the Dmitry family right this moment.”

In a desperate voice, the man kneeled down and acted as if he was giving up everything. And so did the others. Now that their escort troops were dead, it was best for them to beg for their lives.

Roman smiled.

“It is too late.”

The people who were here were those who appeared before him and planned on killing him. It was unknown what the situation would have been like had they maintained a passive stance, but they crossed a line they shouldn’t have.

Swish!

“Ack!”

He grabbed a noble by the head. There was no way for him to resist. The noble struggled, but he couldn’t do much against Roman.

Roman continued to grab his head as he looked at the others.

“If you drew the sword, shouldn’t you pay the price?”

And he cut his throat.

With the squeal of a pig, blood dripped down. And witnessing that made the nobles who were kneeling down pee themselves.

The Cairo Royal Palace was in an uproar at the same time.

“A battle just broke out in the middle of the capital. It is presumed that Marquis Benedict, along with the nobles’ faction, is fighting against Roman Dmitry, and Roman Dmitry is reported to be massacring the nobles!”

“…W-What!”

Daniel Cairo was shocked. A massacre? It was unusual. Aside from the battle in the capital, he didn’t expect Roman Dmitry to draw his sword against Cairo’s most powerful man, Marquis Benedict.

He instantly felt an ominous feeling arise. A battle in the capital meant…

‘A rebellion?’

Maybe… maybe today was D-Day.

Roman Dmitry defeated Count Nicholas. Because of the challenge for the Ranking Matches, Count Nicholas had to go alone, and the weapon of the royal’s faction collapsed like that. That only meant that the King was now a powerless man. If Roman Dmitry barges into the palace with ill intent, the rebellion will succeed.

The lieutenant of the Royal Knights, shouted with his neck turning red,

“Call the Royal Knights and the guards right now! We never know when the traitors will step into the palace! From now on, the safety of His Majesty will be our top priority!’

“I understand.”

The soldiers moved in order, with the palace in chaos. At the sudden rebellion, Daniel Cairo tried to breathe.

‘… could this be an unavoidable end?’

He knew that a rebellion would happen at some point. The King’s faction only held power with Count Nicholas by their side, and they didn’t have enough power to suppress the others. They were relying on one person until now.

Like a candle in a stormy night, if any faction revolted, he would be immediately deprived of the throne. It was a foreseeable future.

Daniel Cairo’s heart was racing like crazy, but he tried to accept this situation calmly. And right then…

“Your Majesty! Roman Dmitry has arrived at the palace!”

The leader of the rebellion finally arrived.

The air was tense. The people in the royal family had expectations. They thought the Roman Dmitry would soon start a massacre as soon as he arrived, but he meekly followed the rules in the palace.

“Disarm!”

Tak.

He took off his armor and put down his weapons.

The Royal Knights, who were hostile, guided him on the orders of the King. They didn’t let their guard down in the slightest. They were all aiming their swords, ready to attack Roman Dmitry.

Roman stopped and looked at Daniel Cairo.

“I greet His Majesty, the King.”

“… let’s skip the troublesome process. I heard that there was an incident in the capital. Explain the entire thing.”

He immediately went to the main point. Be it a rebellion or not, Cairo was an important place for the royal family.

In the situation where people’s eyes were focused on him, Roman said with a blood-stained face,

“The situation started with Marquis Benedict’s demands. Right after the match ended, he came with his troops and urged me to follow the nobles’ faction. At that time, there were hundreds of troops blocking me, and it was clearly against the laws of Cairo, and I was considered a traitor for refusing his offer. It was unfair. Cairo follows His Majesty and not Marquis Benedict, so I couldn’t obey him.”

His voice was strong.

And as he expressed such strong emotions, he looked right at the King,

“And then blood was spilled. Even though I knew it was a problem, I couldn’t just kneel.”

The atmosphere turned cold.

Whatever the reason, Roman broke the rule in Cairo. They understood his justification, but the people of the royal faction couldn’t make a decision on how to respond.

And his words weren’t over. Roman revealed his reason for coming to the palace.

“From now on, I would like to make a proposal to His Majesty. If you can promise me what I want, as the sword of Cairo, the Dmitry family will suffocate the lives of the nobles and set Cairo’s chaotic power system in order.”

At those words, the people were shocked. The clash between Dmitry and the nobles was bringing an unexpected scenario for the royal faction.
