Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 36

9. Finding the traitor ⑴

Alex looked back at Zeke while wiping his weapon.

He was a truly desirable talent.

Although his combat power was only mid-to-low level, the rest of his abilities were outstanding.

Just looking at the way he cleaned his weapons was completely different from other part-ti workers.

Bringing up the shine from the bottom

to the finish.

The shoes he polished using his part-ti job as a shoe shiner when he was young were able to be sold for a higher price.

Zeke was harassed by people selling weapons all day, and only ca ho from work after cleaning in the evening.

Even though he worked several tis more diligently than others, he prepared for dinner without showing any sign of fatigue.

I shopped for groceries, prepared ingredients, received custors, and even dealt with drunken custors who were really drunk.

Deus, who was caught in the middle of the truth, was put aside for now and stayed open until past midnight before returning ho and taking a nap.

If possible, Alex wanted to take him to the demon world and put him in a position to command the army.

With that ticulousness and sincere attitude of doing your best in everything, you will be able to raise hundreds of thousands of troops to the rank of elite!

It may not an much in the human world, where hero rank is the most important, but Alex

had a high opinion of Zeke’s ability to be sincere.

“Zeke.”

“Yes, manager.”

“Where is your lord now?”

“Deus? “You were leaving the castle with Yulgeum earlier.”

“ah! “Is this another date?”

“It’s like a date… I think Deus-sama has found a weakness?”

“Hehehe, it’s okay even if it’s a weakness. “The more ti we spend together, the better.” Zeke

felt that

Alex’s laughter was sohow evil.

“Zeek-kun, don’t you have soone you like?”

“yes? Oh yes. Now…

“Shall I introduce you?”

Zeke blushed.

“To the store manager! Where do I have ti for things like dating right now? Now, in a little while, I have to pay my younger siblings’ dormitory and tuition for this month…

“Dormitory? “I heard you’re staying together.”

“Starting next month, I plan to put him in an advanced class. We run after-school enrichnt courses only for students in private dormitories .

Fortunately, thanks to Deus and the store manager taking care of , dinner business is going well, so I think I will be able to enroll him in an advanced class. thank you.”

“Ho Ho, well, to the point of being audited. “It’s all thanks to Zeke’s sincere work.”

Alex secretly thought about making him date a woman who looked like a dream and recruiting her into the demon world.

But how effective will Cubus’ magic be against Pure Blood?

I decided to give up such thoughts as it would cause unnecessary trouble and tarnish my lord’s reputation.

“The path to becoming a warrior is very difficult.”

“Yes, of course. I’m only in elentary school… I’ll have to graduate from college later to beco a worthy warrior. In order to beco a first-class warrior of G rank or higher, you must attend the highest level course of the Holy Hwangcheong.”

“Wasn’t it divided into purebloods?”

“Purity is one of many asures. “Except for the 5th generation and the 0th generation, that is, the zero generation,

warriors are not divided into warrior grades simply based on pureblood level.”

In other words, the Zero Generation, the three generations to which the last person belongs, will be at the forefront of the war against the devil.

However, except for them, the remaining warriors focused on the war against the remnants of the Demon King’s army in the rear.

Therefore, individual combat power and financial power to mobilize knights and soldiers were considered more important than the rank of the warrior.

“You have to graduate from college with good grades and

get a high grade. There is also the problem of recruiting good colleagues. “If you join a large warrior family, you will be able to gain stable companions, so that should be your goal first.”

“…Is this a hero business?”

“To call it a business… After all, a hero’s main job is to save people.”

“That’s right. Haha, I made a mistake.”

Zeke sighed briefly.

“If you don’t get on the right line

and are relegated to a C-level contract, you won’t be able to find a job. Even if it is a subcontracted job, it is a simple request that does not even cover round-trip transportation costs. “Rather than finding a lost pet, it’s things like moving things and delivering goods instead.”

“He’s an errand boy.”

“It’s almost the sa. “Delivery of goods is so hard that we have to deliver more than 50 items a day to barely make enough money.”

“What does that have to do with the hero?”

“If I were to really ask about it, it would be about helping others

?”

“The more I listen, the more it’s different from what I thought.”

Alex, who was saying this, was startled.

The lord spoke of the contradictions of the world.

I often used to say that this world was twisted, as a habit.

Is this also included in that contradiction?

“It feels like a date.”

“Has this woman been drinking since midday? “Why are you giving injections?”

“You don’t have any friends, do you?”

“That’s true, but I don’t really want to be friends with that person?”

“There is a pulse in conversation, right? “There’s no need to embarrass yourself by cutting it off.”

“The goal is to make you feel embarrassed?”

“So that doesn’t an you have no friends.”

“But you don’t seem to have many friends either?”

“That’s what

Yulgeum said.

“Okay, I lost this ti.”

“You won and lost, so why did you bring to this dragon’s resurrection ritual?”

“Aren’t you curious?”

“Not really.”

“If you think about it, the dragons that are awakening now are awakened using the materials you collected. Isn’t that right, Yongyong’s father?”

“I don’t intend to act like a father for collecting a handful of green beetle shells, 7 herbs, and branches from a ginkgo tree that has lived for 10,000 years in the mud subrged underground in a magic pond, but… why bother showing them? “Let take a look.”

“I missed you.”

Lastly, while spraying the spring water of the sapphire into several piles, Yulgeum quietly recited the dragons’ incantation.

“Okay then, let’s leave here.”

“why?”

“Humans shouldn’t create dragons.”

“Is it because of a singularity or sothing?”

“that’s right. “Awakening the dragon is Jin Geum-yong’s job.”

“Now then, there is no one who can create a dragon.”

“Half is right and half is not.”

” half?”

“Because it is born naturally.”

“Well, it’s made when tree soil and water co together when weeding.”

“that’s right. “Where magical energy gathers, all kinds of mysterious things happen.”

The place where Yulgeum brought Deus was a mana vortex not far from Zoryx Castle.

It is a point where mana, the dium particle of magic, naturally gathers, and various strange phenona often occur due to the high concentration of mana

.

Because there were few people and the mountain scenery was beautiful, it was also a point where magicians retreated and trained.

Pulling the trigger, Yulgeum climbed up the sharp cliff with Deus.

Once the mana began to swirl, it created a vortex even faster. A thread-like blue line began to shine clearly between the vortices.

“You will be born.”

Actually, to Kochi.

The cocoon containing the elents glowed for a few minutes and then created a long gap.

The dragon with four triangular wings ca out of the womb of the cocoon, pouring out countless blue gems like amniotic fluid.

A newborn dragon could not be compared to a human newborn.

The thing, already equipped with great power and intelligence, showed off its presence by letting out a long cry towards the sky.

The young dragon ate all the jewels around it. To be exact, the color of the gem.

The gem that lost its blue color turned into a gray stone. The dragon

swallowed so much blue

food that its stomach bulged, curled up in its place and fell asleep.

“ Blue Jade Dream （靑玉夢）

“Sapphire Dream?”

“huh. It tells the story of the dragons’ first sleep. “It is the biggest reason why we conceive children in the scriptures.”

“You’re defenseless.”

“I’m planning on sleeping for the next 10 years.”

“10 years?”

« o ”

huh.

“What if soone finds that in the anti?”

“Because we signed a non-aggression pact… at least we won’t touch humans.”

“Are you sure?”

Yulgeum smiled bitterly at Deus’ question.

“Well, if you were sure, you wouldn’t have bothered to hire .”

“Sadly, that’s true.”

“But you… did you do that on purpose?”

” yes’?”

“I woke you up here.”

“I’m not sure what you’re talking about.”

“It really seems like that.”

” Shh.”

Yulgeum stopped Deus and retreated behind the cliff.

Imdiately after that, a huge shadow appeared on the ground.

“Dragon…

“Elder level. “You must never be caught.”

Deus glanced at Yulgeum and spread a curtain of darkness to cover her.

Yulgeum expressed his gratitude with a nod and looked down at the dragon, who was in a blue jade dream again.

The one that approached the young dragon was a black dragon.

The dragon sat down next to the young dragon, its obsidian scales shining faintly, and looked for signs around it.

After being on guard for a while, he seed to have concluded that it was safe.

By reciting a magic spell, the dragon took on human form. taphor’s magic could only be used by particularly outstanding magicians.

A woman with black hair down to her heels, wearing a black dress, stood in front of the young dragon.

She took a mont to catch her breath. A nervous expression was evident.

“Is she prettier?”

Yulgeum snorted at Deus’ provocation.

“A woman who is just sexy.”

“That’s a good thing.”

“I guess soone is a demon.”

“Do you know who it is?”

“of course. “There is no dragon I don’t know about.”

“Well, it’s God.”

“June. Jaune, the black dragon. “He is the leader of the hardliners.”

“I guess that’s how it goes. The leader of the hardliners

spreads fungal hyphae to contaminate a young dragon and raises the dragon to beco the vanguard of the hardliners. “It’s like a scenario written in a painting.”

“I thought so too.”

“I did it? “It’s past tense.”

“Rather, when there was no mold.”

“ah!”

“Mold is strange. It feels like it’s too much for a hardliner to use. Joining hands with the demon world… I wonder if it really happened no matter how corrupted it was.”

“For treating the demon world like so kind of scum…

“I’m sorry, I didn’t an to make you feel bad. “That is the truth.”

“Are you going to fight?”

“I’m sorry again. My words are tangled up. However, from a human perspective, it is only a disaster that occurs once every 100 years. “We also get into trouble for no reason, so negative stories are bound to co out.”

“It’s a disaster…

Genet, a woman with black hair who stayed by the side of the young sapphire dragon, looked up at the sky anxiously, as if waiting for soone.

A few minutes later, another dragon

ca down. As a red ruby dragon, she imdiately transford into a human and spoke to Gene.

“Sorry I’m late.”

“What about Julie’s tail?”

“doesn’t exist. Don’t worry anymore. Because Jin Geum-yong is no more.”

“It just… feels like it never happened.”

Gene and Julie.

The two incarnations of dragons looked at the sleeping sapphire dragon.

“The moderates are like flies with their heads cut off

.

Gene sighed briefly at Julie’s words.

“We are no different. “How much confusion will there be until God appoints a new dragon god!”

“June, how about you challenge Jingeumyong?”

“That… let’s not talk about that. Everything is according to God’s will. Because we creatures are not given the right to even dare to question His work.”

“okay. ”I don’t want to be punished for being arrogant. Let’s just do our job.”
