Barco's knight, Benson, could not accept reality at that moment with a shock look in his face.
' I was slapped on the cheek?'
His cheeks tingled.
[ As a member of the Barco family, which he was very proud of it, he could not accept the act of being hit in the face
The opponent's face was confirmed. ]
He know why Roman Dmitry beat him, but Roman Dmitry's reputation as a nerd, made Benson's more angry, "Where is this bastard? Whoops!"
Thap!
Once again he turned his head.
Embarrassed, Benson grabbed his cheek and tried to stop Roman, but Roman's hand slapped him on the cheek again.
Thap!
Thap! Thap!
Once, twice, three times.
Benson didn't even have time to counterattack.
Roman did not stop hitting Benson's face even though his face did not return to its original position, and Benson's was confident at the beginning, but know he started to think how to escape from the slap, his head was spinning.
Pain took precedence over his vain pride, and Benson waved his arms at the momentary staggering legs and said earnestly.
" please !"
It hurt.
It hurt so much.
[ Although he lived a life accustomed to dominate on the weak, Roman's touch had the power to make people powerless.
He found out then, the fact that he made a mistake.
But Roman didn't give him a chance to apologize or make any excuses.
Even though the party hall aristocrats began to gather in the commotion outside, he slapped Benson's face countless times with a cold face.]
Blood splashed, teeth came out
His legs staggered, he fell to his knees, and Benson grabbed Roman's legs with his tangled hair.
situation was getting serious.
Belatedly, Kevin and Chris stopped him.
"Lord!"
"This is enough punishment! The opponent is Barco's knight. Even considering the relationship with them, it would be good to end it like this!"
They where right.
They uttered advice, but Roman glanced at them with blood-splattered on his face and said:
"I decide the standard of sufficient punishment. Chris, Kevin. What kind of punishment do you think is appropriate for the punishment of a knight who goesssips about me, Dmitry's eldest son? Even if this guy dies because of the violence, that's just the price of the words he uttered. There is no excess."
Roman.
There was no benevolent lord.
Benson crossed the line set by Roman.
[ Experienced sociability and a heart for subordinates.
These are the elements necessary to maintain power, but in the end there are certain things that must be kept in order for a solid throne.
One Bee Hundred Gye ] ( translater note it's the name of the punishment so I didn't translat the name )
It was a clear standard of punishment.
Roman was showing how to deal with those who crossed the line in front of everyone.
And once again.
The moment he grab Benson's face and slap again on his cheek.
"What the hell is this!"
Anthony Barco, he appeared and after seeing the sight in front of him.
He couldn't believe it.
Roman Dmitry dared to punish the Barco family knights in front of everyone at Barco's social party.
It was the overpass for him.
With a face that looked like it was about to explode right away, Anthony Barco shouted.
"Roman! Even though you are the eldest son of the Dmitry family, it is absolutely unacceptable to tamper with the Barco family knight. So stop doing that right now and apologize directly for your rude behavior!"
He bowed his heads for mutual interest, but being openly ignored in the secret room was not a problem that he could tolerated.
Gaze that alternately looks at him and Roman. A look of interest appeared on the faces of the suffocating nobles, so Anthony Barco gave strength to his voice.
he thought
Roman has crossed the line.
For now, he deserves to be angry.
But.
"Why should I apologize?"
Roman was not agitated.
Still holding Benson's head, he looked at Anthony Barco and spoke in a cold tone.
"When I left the party, I heard Barco's knight gossiping about me. As he talked about the subject, he made remarks demeaning the Dmitry family. And in front of me, he dared to touch the face of a Dmitry man. Anthony Barco, do you think I was wrong?"
" Even so, this has crossed the line!"
line. good."
[ The opponent also knew.
That this is Benson's responsibility.
Still, the reason he could not back down was not because of the intention to protect Benson, but because of the gaze of the people around him.
Please step back just once.
Despite Anthony Barco's gaze asking to protect his face, Roman did not follow his intentions in the slightest ].
"I said this while talking to you in the secret room. I don't know how the relationship between the two of us, and furthermore, the relationship between the family, will change due to personal resentment From now on, you'd better make sure your attitude toward me is clear. Will we keep the relationship we have now, or will we devour each other every time we see each other like your hot face? My patience is not as great as you thought. So, decide your attitude now."
People around were perplexed.
What they thought was a simple trouble at first, they didn't know that it would turn into a problem that brought up the family.
That was Roman's intention.
During his lifetime, Roman was an idiot.
An idiot who is not treated properly outside even with the powerful Dmitry family in the northeast area.
It cannot be said that it is the responsibility of others.
It was Roman Dmitry's fault for not taking advantage of his strengths, and Roman wanted to rectify that fact as he started a new life.
'My name is Roman Dmitry.'
[ The eldest son of the Dmitry family.
Even against Barco, he showed everyone that he was a man who could utter such rude remarks.
Benson.
He was just an excuse.
From the moment he entered Barco's social party, Roman was looking for an opportunity to prove his worth as and also he had won the favor of the nobles around him through conversation. ]
It was intentional.
In a situation that resulted from his opponent's mistakes, Roman asked Benson's mistakes like a prey hyena.
At Roman's bloody momentum, Anthony Barco could not hide his embarrassment.
'Damn it.'
Roman's enmity.
gaze around him.
In his heart, he wanted to fight.
But in that case, the mistake cannot be undone.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Roman has changed due to the conversation in the back room, and that family relations could be disrupted by individual resentment.
What if that happens? It was one-sidedly Barco's loss.
With a little patience and perseverance, Lawrence's fertile land and Flora Lawrence could be obtained.
very little.
Anthony Barco fell into self-rationalization.
He struggled to ignore the gazes around him, thinking that he had no choice but to choose one option.
He said.
" Thinking about it, you are right. If Dmitry's knight had gonessips on me in front of me and touched a member of the Barco family, I would have punished the same. This is absolutely our fault."
He took a step back
While bending his pride, he added meaningless excuses, saying that he must have been in the same situation as he was.
That was the end of it.
Roman smiled and pulled Benson's head forward.
"You think so?"
Needless to say
When Benson's eyes, tinged with fear, turned to him, Roman pressed his head to the floor and said.
"Bite your teeth tight."
at that word.
Benson squeezed his eyes shut.
As a result, Benson was carried on a stretcher.
His face turned to blood clots from how much he had been hit, and pieces of teeth and blood pooled in the place where he was.
The party was over.
Roman wiped the blood off his hands with a handkerchief and left the party with Chris and Kevin.
on the way back to the land.
Kevin, who was silently following Roman, spoke with the face of a treason.
" Sorry. Because of me, the lord has suffered an embarrassment."
It was embarrassing.
If only he was a knight like Chris.
Barco's knights would not have an argument, and Roman would not have been involved in useless things.
Chris also added.
"I'm sorry too. Seeing Kevin being beaten, and insulting the Dmitry family, he did not respond. If you want to punished for this, we will accept the punishment and make sure that nothing like this happens in the future."
Chris has power.
Still, he endured for Roman.
If he had known Roman would be angry enough to be hostile to Barco, he would have drawn his sword and fought from the beginning.
Widely stopped walking.
Roman turned to his men and spoke in a calm tone.
"I made the best choice for you. It must have been difficult to be patient, but thank you for being patient and waiting."
Today neither of them where responsible.
From the outsider, the Barco family is strong, and Roman Dmitry has no power to treat them rudely.
If Roman was unprepared and had an argument with the Barco family, he might have faced a bad situation in front of everyone.
Chris and Kevin knew that.
Roman's force was acknowledged, but his position as a force was unstable, so his self-esteem endured injuries.
However.
That's not to say it was a his perfect response.
"Impatience leads to anger. Your choice had avoid the worst, but it wasn't the answer I wanted. In the future, study the basis for judging how to act when someone spit on your face. Then there would be nothing like today. At least in the northeast of the Kingdom of Cairo, no one would dares to spit on Dimitry family."
[ When living at the bottom, Baek Joong-hyuk was powerless.
So he used tools and smashed the head of the boss with a stone and became the king of the 12 dens.
It was different then and now.
He can't do anything when he don't had power, but when he take on the power, he risk the lives of his comrades.
I had to know how to tell the time.
When it was not the right time, he smiled, and when the time was right, even if it was judged to be reckless, he cut the opponent's head without hesitation.
In the process, he crossed many dead end.
Chris and Kevin's judgment was in their best interests, but if they had known 'how to tell the time', they wouldn't have stood still today. ]
Barco family Or Blood Fang.
If Dmitry's power is accurately grasped, even if they cross the line, there is no problem.
And.
"Even if it is someone you have to endure, keep your opponent's face clearly in your eyes. There is a difference between simply being patient and bowing helplessly. You will surely crush the opponent at any time. I'm the type of person who will not allow someone to stand someone on top of me. If you want to follow me in this life that puts everyone under his feet, you will have to adapt to it."
At this moment.
Chris and Kevin thought.
Roman Dmitry.
He is a man who will lead a reigning life.
In order to become a person suitable for him, they should not strive for the common sense of other people .
Roman walked ahead.
Chris and Kevin followed.
Looking at Roman's reliable back, the two men's footsteps had a stronger trust than at the beginning.
Cheonma Shingyo.
The power that dominated an era in Moorim was taking steps little by little here in the Cairo Kingdom.
