Spectacular Upgrade Ceremony (2)
Henry Albert!
A person who symbolizes the flow of the times!
Count Samir sat down and uttered fanciful words before the main point.
"It is really an honor to meet you like this. How much I admired reading ; I was there that day . After re-reading the work dozens of times for a while, it made me feel as if I was with the Southern Front 'that day'. How did you come up with such a great masterpiece?"
It was pure intention.
Because I met the author of the book I was deeply moved by, I wanted to hear the background of the creation of the masterpiece.
Henry Albert scratched his head.
While reacting as if embarrassed, the words that came out of his mouth were far from humility.
I do not know. Even when I was writing my first work, I had a strong desire to unravel the things I saw and heard on the battlefield. Everyone knows how great Roman Dmitry is, but don't you know about the 'Battle of the Southern Front', the starting point of his full-fledged fame? What happened that day is still unbelievable. When Hector captured the rear positions and captured the warp gates, the Cairo royal family prepared to negotiate with them, but unlike Roman Dmitry."
There was power in his voice.
As if he were Roman Dmitry, he had a proud face.
"A pitch-black night. In the mountains, where torches illuminate the surroundings, Roman Dmitry made a step that will go down in history. Only one person turned the tide. Edwin Hector, called Hector's Star, tried to subdue Roman Dmitry by pushing his forces, but when morning dawned, the mountain was full of corpses. I was there that day. You witnessed something unbelievable in common sense, and how could you not write a book about it?"
i See!
Count Samir tapped his knee.
I was truly amazed.
As explained in the book, what happened on the Southern Front made the man's heart warm.
Was it because the reaction was satisfactory?
Henry Albert was excited and said things he didn't ask.
"Actually, at first, I had no intention of making a sequel. But then, watching Roman Dmitry soar with wings on, a fundamental question came to mind as to how the creature that people look up to was born. Isn't he a human just like us?
Yes.
"But why! Why is Roman Dmitry different from others? The reason lies in an unusual choice."
"Is it an unusual choice?"
The atmosphere was ripe.
The conversation developed interestingly.
"Battle on the Southern Front. When everyone said surrender, Roman Dmitry saw the possibility of victory. When the Civil War in Cairo broke out, people spoke of a victory for the Marquis Benedict with Cronus on his back, but the result was Roman Dmitry overwhelmingly suppressing the rebellion. After that, these choices are repeated. When everyone says no, Roman Dmitry proves it with results. Unusual choices have led to overwhelming results that go beyond common sense, and the accumulated results have made Roman Dmitry what it is today."
"But it's Roman Dmitry, so it's possible, isn't it?"
"I admit it. The key point here is trust. Having honed himself to the point where he could not be shaken by external words, Roman Dmitry did what he believed was right under any circumstance. Everything in the world is like that. People who lose their direction by being swayed by the buzz around them are only buried in the flow of the times. Roman Dmitry is a rebel of the times. We were criticized for not following the mainstream, and we started a new era for not following the mainstream."
" Ah!
Meantime.
Henry Albert lived with Roman Dmitry.
At first, he had no choice but to study in order to maintain his modest reputation, but as time went on, he sincerely recognized Roman Dmitry.
He was worthy of imitation.
With Roman Dmitry as the motif of his life, Henry Albert's life completely changed.
full of confidence
acted boldly.
; I was there that day and ; How a legend was born were born through realization that penetrated life.
he is.
He wasn't the Henry Albert he used to be.
Everyone acknowledges, everyone looks up to.
Author of a bestseller and full-time professor at the Royal Academy of Cairo, he has turned into a truly prestigious figure.
"How can I listen to a famous lecture like this? It is truly an infinite honor."
You're welcome.
Count Samir calmed his excitement.
from now on.
It was my turn to speak.
Henry Albert was well liked, so I carefully asked the main point.
" In fact, the reason I came to Professor Henry Albert was none other than to ask you something about Lauren Dmitry."
at that word.
Henry Albert laughed softly.
"Ask anything. At the Royal Academy of Cairo, no one knows Lauren Dmitry better than me."
* * *
just a few years ago.
Henry Albert was a humble man.
He believed only in his family and lived as an ignorant person, so human relations could not be good.
But.
It changed after meeting Roman Dmitry.
I realized that there is an inaccessible sky in the world, and I realized that even if I was a humble human being, I could live a similar life if I had an 'influencer' by my side.
From then on, I paid great attention to human relationships.
He did not treat him harshly because he was a subordinate, and he showed kindness with a smile whenever possible.
And when he entered the Cairo Royal Academy as a full-time professor.
A great job for Lauren Dmitry.
Whenever I had time, I visited him and talked to him, thanks to which Lauren Dmitry opened the door to his heart.
One day.
Lauren Dmitry said.
" I'm getting a weird feeling all the time. The second brother is Rodwell Dmitry, who graduated with the top score by breaking all academy records, and the first brother is Roman Dmitry, the best swordsman on the continent everyone knows. no matter how hard i try Can you follow me on your toes? When Dmitry went to war, no one needed me, so why do I have to work relentlessly here."
It was a complaint.
Hearing these words in awe, Henry Albert was lost in thought.
'If I were Lauren Dmitry. As the third son of Dmitry, will I be able to overcome the burden and live my life?'
no.
I wasn't confident
Lauren Dmitry was still lacking compared to his older brothers, but within the Cairo Royal Academy, he was called a genius.
By comparison. How about Henry Albert?
He had no talent at all, so he was treated like a nuisance in the family, but now he is a full-time professor at the Cairo Royal Academy.
If it were your former self.
Lauren Dmitry would have had nothing to say.
However, Henry Albert, who is now living a new life, was not only despairing of realistic conditions.
"Lauren. It's clear that your brothers are great, but comparing yourself to others will only eat up your life. Most of the students at Cairo's Royal Academy are no better than you. That's why you're in a lower class, and they look at you like you look up to your brothers. I don't mean to be content with seeing other people. Humans cannot always be perfect, and ordinary humans like me have to live in constant comparison."
Henry Albert.
Lauren Dmitry.
was an ordinary human.
Henry Albert grinned at the consensus formed between the two.
"Look. Even people like me earn a living by working as a professor at the Cairo Royal Academy. So, don't be swayed by comparisons and live the life you want. If you live like that, even if you fall behind others, you won't be unhappy."
that day.
Henry Albert got a friend.
He had a good relationship with Lauren Dmitry, and based on that realization, Henry Albert paid a little more attention to personal relationships, albeit small.
Reputable professor. Henry Albert's fame, respected by the public, was not just due to Roman Dmitry's halo, but his own hard work.
Count Samir's question.
It was such an easy matter.
Henry Albert gladly gave gifts to guests who came to him.
"What Lauren Dmitry needs is not a material gift. Now, the interests that the person considers most important. Lauren Dmitry wants to move up to A-Class and move to the next level quickly, so she'll love anything that supports her growth. The Lauren Dmitry I know is thirsty for growth."
It was the perfect answer.
Count Samir smiled brightly in response to the answer that clearly indicated the direction.
Thank you! I will never forget this grace."
It was a short meeting.
Henry Albert's favor will remain in his mind for a long time.

The day before the upgrade meal.
The Dmitry family has arrived in Kairos.
As the lights of the Warp Gate subsided and they revealed themselves, Kairos became a crucible of enthusiasm.
"Wow!"
"Dmitry! Dmitry!"
"Roman Dmitry! I respect you!"
"Kyaak-!"
There was a riot.
Cairo and Dmitry.
The two countries were destined communities.
Aside from the fact that the Duchy of Dmitry was originally rooted in Cairo, the two nations joined forces, starting with the rebellion of the Marquis Benedict and ending with an all-out war against Kronos.
As a result, Roman Dmitry had no choice but to be honored as the hero of Cairo.
Had it not been for Roman Dmitry's tremendous performance, it was clear that the Kingdom of Cairo would have fallen to hell at the time Benedict rebelled.
"Dmitry! Dmitry!"
"Dmitry! Dmitry!"
along the way forward.
A large crowd had gathered.
Roman Dmitry moved as if familiar, but his father, Duke Dmitry, was unfamiliar with such cheers, so he smiled awkwardly and waved his hand.
The world was changing.
The enthusiastic reaction towards Roman Dmitry proved that Dmitry's status was different from before.
walked for a while
When they finally arrived at Cairo's Royal Palace, Daniel Cairo came up to the door and greeted Dmitry's guests.
Welcome to. I was waiting."

relocated
Daniel Cairo, who lightly greeted each other, suddenly brought up the story of the past.
"Really, it seems that world affairs are impossible to foresee. When the Kingdom of Cairo was being swung to and fro by the imperial knapus, I reached out to Roman Dmitry with the feeling of catching straw at the edge of a cliff. I ask you to be on my side. Of course, I knew that Dmitry's strength alone could not go against the crowd, but then there was no way I could live without it."
Cairo and Dmitry.
became ambiguous.
Dmitry was clearly a country that came from Kai, but Daniel Cairo couldn't condescend to Dmitry.
That was the way it was.
Cairo was not qualified to rule Dmitry.
"In the rebellion of the Marquis Benedict and the threat of the Kronos Empire, the Kingdom of Cairo would not have enjoyed the freedom it has today without Dmitry's help. When Dmitry proclaimed a new kingdom union. I knew it was time to make a decision."
" What are you talking about now?"
The atmosphere was not serious.
Duke Dmitry asked with a firm expression, but Daniel Cairo was determined to see the end of the beginning.
"I have been thinking a lot about it. Hector, Umberto, Redford, Frank. They took Dmitry for granted to become the leader of the new kingdom confederation. The same goes for Cairo. Dmitry Duchy. To be precise, I thought that Roman Dmitry-nim was the only one who could stand up to the rapidly changing future."
some said
Cairo's appearance became ridiculous.
He gave power to Dmitry, but it has grown so large that the term duchy is now meaningless.
That might sound bad.
However.
Daniel Cairo accepted reality.
Rather than being offended by Dmitry's development, he focused on the positive effects he had gained from them.
The Cairo Kingdom was just a scarecrow country.
The central government, led by Kronos, Valhalla, and the Marquis Benedict, shook the royal family, and Daniel Cairo was unable to carry out his will.
What changed the situation.
It was Roman Dmitry.
Just because he was worth living, just because he was out of breath, Daniel Cairo had no intention of asserting power stupidly.
'The times are changing. In that flow, it is a sin to fail to grasp the subject.'
made a decision
Ignoring people laughing.
For Cairo, indeed, I judged what was right.
Dmitry is.
Roman Dmitry was a being who would rise higher than it is now.
"As of the present time, the Duchy of Dmitry has been recognized as an independent state, and when Dmitry later obtained the title of empire, the Kingdom of Cairo intends to remain as a subordinate country that supports Dmitry. That is the future of Cairo and Dmitry, I think."
Establishing new relationships.
Daniel Cairo revealed his purpose.
