Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 123

28. A new start (4)

“Shall we go?”

Skatul asked from his driver’s seat. Deus shook his head slowly.

“it’s okay. How many people want to join in on the hunt for the beast? “As for the rest, if you wander around nearby, you can catch one that looks reasonably tasty.”

“After all, hunting is an excuse and it’s for Zeke’s training.”

“What is it anyway? “You often act like you’re over

my head .”

“Sorry haha.”

“Haha, does that make you laugh?”

“Then let’s go hunting.”

“Okay, go away.”

A tall man popped his head through the coach window.

“I will go help my master.”

“Slave No. 3.”

He was Nezar.

“I am now Zeke’s slave.”

“Because Zeke is my subordinate, you are also my slave.”

“I decided to be loyal to only one person.”

“You’re sick. I know better that you are not that kind of guy. “You’re just making excuses because you don’t want to listen to my orders, right?”

“Whatever you think, that’s up to you.”

Yulgeum, who was dazed in the carriage, said.

“If you give it to , it’s over. “Why do you do this to your forr slave?”

“Why is this damn woman hurting other people’s insides?

” “Anyway, I’ll go.”

Nezar jumped out of the carriage and ran to Zeke.

“What can I do without a bracelet?” Deus said a word to the back of his head and crossed his arms.

“I gave it to you for no reason. If you don’t do it from that day onwards, it will be confiscated. “Now you don’t even call Nim.”

“Why did you give it to like that?”

“I told you. “I think there will be a lot of trouble if I keep it.”

“That’s true, though.”

Yulgeum nodded.

To be honest, it saved an hour. Nezar was too dangerous for the Demon King to have.

If Deus and Nezar had gotten along and were planning sothing new, they would have beco enemies and stopped them.

Nezar was a being on a different level from Lich King Sadimus and Manda Lake Lake.

“Anyway, being loyal is a good thing for Zeke.”

“It’s not good for .”

“I can’t do that.”

Nezar was now heading to Zeke’s side.

His weapon was a large hamr.

The handle was two ters long and the hamr head weighed close to 100 kilograms.

It was a trendous weapon that could be wielded because it had the body of a giant.

Nezar swung his giant hamr and shattered the mammoth’s leg bone.

When Nezar joined in, the mammoth’s montum was instantly broken.

Zeke and Lexia’s combined attack caused more wounds, and at so point, the large

body fell to the ground.

“One mammoth hock steak between dishes is a lot of stuffy, right?”

“Is it really worth eating?”

“Of course! “Our chef is from Valenta, Jorik’s Castle.”

“ah! Then it’s trustworthy. “Because the castle has beco like this, there are no restaurants left.”

Zeke took the order with a smile.

Because it was a temporary opening in a temporary building, there was a shortage of workers.

I took the order form and went straight into the kitchen and started watching the assistant.

Mammoth at was moved deep underground.

Buried beneath the land purchased by Deus was an unknown machine.

Because light and temperature could be controlled, large amounts of at could be stored without rotting.

However, because it was so deep, it was not easy to move it, so we had to use an elevator that goes up the spiral stairs.

The elevator was Lakke’s work. A track was made using vines and a gondola made of bamboo

trunks was hung.

Although the elevator still had to be pulled up purely by human power, the effort was worth it simply because the at could be stored for a long ti.

Deus sat down in an armchair in the front yard of the restaurant.

Although it was not as good as the golden throne before, it was quite a fancy chair.

I spent most of my day there taking a nap in the sun.

“Anyway, my arms are stretched thin.”

I opened my eyes to Yulgeum’s voice.

“What was it you?”

“What do you an it was you?”

“Isn’t it better than a damn woman?”

“That’s right. Now that I think about it, I don’t see many people calling a damn woman these days.”

“Congratulations, you won.”

“Anyway, you have to understand how shaless it is. “Is business going well?”

“I guess so.”

“What is the sa?”

“Sales are sothing that the butler takes care of. All the owner has to do is sit down, take the money, and take care of it.”

“And then I get stabbed in the back.”

“That’s also part of the owner’s fun.”

“It doesn’t seem fun.”

“Well, I’m thinking about going on an adventure again.”

“adventure? Where?”

“The Hero Managent Office. “It looks like it’s reopening today.”

“ah! “There was a place like that.”

“What if you forget? “As a warrior’s companion.”

“The number of requests will be endless. “This is how the world ca to be.”

“The number of monsters is increasing. Jorick

‘s Castle is also attacked by large animals several tis every day. “Well, most of it is just a matter of food.”

“I don’t know what the demons were thinking when they planned this, but it will only increase the fighting power of humans.”

“Well, that’s what those bastards do. Those guys with screws missing. So, I always lose to humans.”

“Now that you think about it, what are you going to do in 20 years? Mr. Demon King.”

“I won’t fight.”

“why’?”

“Why do we have to fight?”

“They’re demons.”

“Have you developed a disease that will kill you if you don’t go to war once every 100 years? “I’m just going to close the door and live in the demon world.”

“How can I not be exposed to the sun like this?”

“It may be a bit of a waste, but it doesn’t seem like it’s worth millions of people dying every 100 years.”

“You’re a pacifist.”

“It ans there is no profit.”

Deus stood up.

“I have to go since I rembered. You can leave the store

to the slaves. “You too, follow .”

Deus imdiately called Zeke and left the store with Yul Geum.

As Yulgeum watched him walking one step ahead, a thought occurred to him.

You’re desperately running away.

“From what?”

Maybe it’s fate. Because it is a synonym for death.

The warrior managent office was located in a half-destroyed building.

Fortunately, it wasn’t cold yet.

The sky was visible through the collapsed ceiling, and it felt rather elegant.

Behind the rows of desks, employees were busy moving about.

The office was crowded with warriors.

Among them, there was only Zeke who was pure, but just because he was half didn’t an he didn’t have skills.

Especially today, Terriyan, the most famous monster hunter in northern Gelon, ca to the office.

He was a G-class warrior. He led

a group of hunters called Legion Helios, nad after his family’s na, Helios, and

as a group, they were treated as D-class hunters.

He was an important guest at the warrior managent office.

Normally, the director would have dealt with him directly in the back office, but since there was no office in the back, the director was eting Teriyan at the counter.

“That’s right, Terryan. “I didn’t know you would actually co to Joe Riggs Castle.”

“I brought the entire Helios Legion with because of the rumor that this area is being harassed by giants.”

“I feel really reassured. “I was wondering why the giants suddenly retreated to the north. I think I heard a rumor that the Helios Legion was coming.”

“Your jokes are really fun.”

anwhile, Zeke and Deus were at the window right next to Teriyan.

“What are those?”

Zeke lowered his voice.

“It appears to be the Helios Legion. “I only heard rumors.”

” What?”

“We are the most powerful warrior party in northern Zoryx.”

“Is it G-class?”

“The level is D, but there are a lot of warriors who are registered. “There are about 10 Pure Bloods with limited skills like who are active in the Helios Legion.”

Zeke was currently sitting at the desk in front of the office table.

Deus, who was standing behind him, pressed Zeke with his elbow.

“Who says you lack skills?”

“Officially, it’s Class B…

“Anyway, it ans that a group of people get together and go hunting together.”

“They say there are five battalions of 100 n each. “It is said that swordsn, wizard priests, etc. are deployed in a balanced manner to conduct organized hunting that is reminiscent of a military operation.”

“What is that. “It’s just like a rcenary unit.”

“Your voice is too loud. I can hear you. Above all, the Helios family is a marquis family.”

“It’s not even a true warrior family. “Isn’t it just because you’re jealous of warriors that you’re raising a rcenary army with your family’s power?”

No matter how noisy the Hero Managent Office

was like a market place, there was no way I wouldn’t be heard when talking this loudly.

The office manager hurriedly spoke to Teryan.

“Never mind. These are B-class heroes. It’s Pure Blood, but…

“Pure Blood? “I heard that there is a Holyoke family in Pure-City Castle.”

” no.”

“Oh, then is it there? “For 10,000 years, it’s called F.”

“This is the Holly Beach family.”

“Still, if it’s Class B, it looks like a successor with a relatively high level of pure blood has been born.”

“That’s right. So don’t worry about it and just keep talking about work. About 12 kiloters northwest of the territory, there is a village called Kenan. It was originally a granary, so all of the territory’s food reserves are gathered there. “Not long ago, the knights organized a scouting party to check and found that the grain was safe.”

“Then wouldn’t it be okay to transport the food here to Joryx Castle?”

“I plan to. But to do that, you must first eliminate the monsters occupying the area.”

“Ah, so they are recruiting warriors.”

“yes. Since it was my first ti seeing this monster, I couldn’t determine its exact grade, but it seed to be G-grade or higher. There are about 10 such monsters. “The difficulty level is close to D level.”

“We, Legion Helios, have also solved many D-class requests.”

“I know. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have told Teriyan in the first place.”

“Anyway, I will take charge of the job.”

“Are you not listening to the conditions?”

“Isn’t it a D-class request? Seonghwangcheong will not offer an unreasonably low price.”

“That is correct.”

Deus, who had been listening to the two of them talking, put Zeke away and popped his head into the request window.

“So, we also ask for work in the northwest. “I’m going to go to Guenon Village or there.”

“Do you an Genan?”

“okay.”

The female employee at the counter looked through docunts and sighed briefly.

“I don’t know if you know, but the world has been infested with monsters since the volcanic eruption occurred in the center of the Horsespine Mountains.”

” know.”

“Zorix Castle is not the center of explosions, but because it is located at the edge of a mountain range, there are a relatively large number of monsters roaming around.”

“I said I knew. “Who recaptured Zoryx Castle in the first place?”

“Thanks to the lord’s prayers.”

“But that’s true.”

“I don’t know if you know, but the monsters that have appeared recently

are big and strong.”

“I know.”

“There are almost no B-level requests.”

“Level A is okay too.”

“There aren’t many, even including Class A.”

“D-class…

“I don’t entrust D-class tasks to B-class heroes. “Because it’s too dangerous.” Deus glared at the employee.

I couldn’t use the Demon King’s Evil Eye. I just glared at it normally.
