Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 45

——

11. Hunting Giants ⑴

The four long arms were bent arbitrarily like snakes.

Surrounding the body is a solid piece of tal.

At first glance, nurous lines and cogwheels appeared through the gap.

Originally, the gap would have been sealed with sothing like rubber, but that has faded away over ti. Through that, the inside was visible as it was.

A head with red eyes spun around.

The mont his eyes t for the first ti, Zeke was startled and covered his face with a shield.

My instinct told to do so.

Following my instincts was a truly great choice.

Suddenly, the red eyes radiated light. The red light appeared as if it suddenly appeared in the air and hit Zeke’s shield directly.

The light that hit the dragon’s scales scattered in all directions.

People were astonished by the power of each ray of light.

The red light that lted armor and burned skin was more powerful than any other magic.

The short charcoal workers were intimidated by the majesty of the chanical golem.

They retreated hesitantly and no one tried to take the first step.

The mont I touched the red light, death was certain.

If I were hit by the chanical golem’s tal arm, I would be reduced to a bloody ss.

Even the knight commander, Kielce, froze for a mont.

But just one person.

Siegman did not lose courage.

He ran towards the steel giant with his shield in front of him.

The red rays were blocked with a shield. Every ti I was hit by the freely bending tal arm, my shield was pushed away, but I didn’t care.

struggling.

I was hit, swept away, and moved forward again.

That was all, but the dwarfs who were watching

clenched their fists without realizing it.

I looked down at my sweaty palms and shouted to myself.

let’s go!

Co with !

“Dwarfs! let’s go!”

“Ayeayit!”

The knights grabbed their axes. The diggers raised their pickaxes high.

Even if I am afraid, I will not be afraid.

Hundreds of dwarves ford a writhing line and attacked the chanical golem.

Deus, who was watching the scene from a far away room, felt a chill go down his spine without realizing it.

“That’s the hero.”

Yulgeum spoke as if reading his mind.

“Who said what?”

“Honestly, you were scared, right?”

” I?”

“Because the hero is the devil’s natural enemy.”

“Hahaha, who would be scared by sothing like Zeke? “The difference in power would be 10,000 tis greater?”

“It’s the sa even if it increases 100,000 tis or 100 million tis. The hero is the devil’s natural enemy. “Because the only people in the world

who are not afraid of the Demon King are warriors.”

“Why are you fighting again?”

“No, just. “I’m warning you not to be too relaxed.”

“Have you never been too relaxed?”

The chanical golem was strong.

However, there was no such thing as mass assault. Four arms were cut off and the head fell off.

The body was also tattered by the pickaxe.

It spit out cogs from all over its body and eventually collapsed.

Yulgeum stood up and stretched.

“Then shall we go fix it again?”

“Why don’t we, Zeke, treat him like an object too much?”

“Who is handling the real thing? ? Or that one?”

“Co on. “You are a precious warrior.” Yulgeum only laughed at Deus’ answer.

As Yulgeum expected, Zeke’s body was a ss. In the case of Hydra

, the power of the attack was halved

because Alex cut off its tail early .

The power of Doomslagoon’s shield was enough to absorb the shock.

However, in the case of the chanical golem, it was exposed in full view, so Alex had no ti to do anything.

Yulgeum looked at Zeke while treating his shoulder blade, which was almost broken.

he laughed.

Even though the pain must have been enough to make him faint, he smiled as if to reassure himself. “When you’re sick

, you can

cry to this sister .”

Zeke shook his head at Yulgeum’s words.

“A hero cannot do that. “If I get tired and give up, the hearts of everyone around will break.”

Yulgeum looked around.

The dwarves’ morale was high after winning a difficult battle.

Just a short while ago, the subject was scared by the power of the earth dragon and retreated.

The dwarf, who had been burned by the red rays emitted from the golem’s eyes, chuckled.

He seed to be in a good mood, even though the scar that curved like an earthworm on half of his face was spitting out red fluid.

courage.

The pride that bordered on brainwashing changed everyone into a positive person.

The being at the center was a hero.

B-class hero Sieg van Holy Bitch.

The combat ability is also good for Class B. If it weren’t for the shield, gauntlets, and sword, the first blow from the chanical golem would have killed him.

But…

“The chanical golem

is a high-ranking monster even among the G-class. From Hydra to chanical golems, Zeke has already accumulated experience that far surpasses Class A.”

Zeke scratched his head.

“What did I do? It’s because of the excellent colleagues around . In particular, Baron Kielce’s swordsmanship is truly amazing.”

Baron Kielce laughed and slapped Zeke on the back.

“That’s too much praise. “I have already been practicing swordsmanship for 30 years… I can say that Lord Holly Bee Chu, who has this kind of power at only 14 years old, is far superior.”

After controlling the situation to so extent, Baron Chielce imdiately attempted to enter through the open door.

I walked carefully, fearing another monster like a chanical golem, but it seed like there was no longer anything alive in the stone chamber.

The inside of the stone chamber was a cavity asuring about 30 ters by 30 ters.

The cavity was filled with countless shelves, and each shelf had a sack of special material placed on it.

What is contained in the bag is flour or similar types of foodstuffs.

It was a disappointing result.

The result of the South Root Clan’s painstaking excavation during the 30th century is only thousands of sacks and dried food.

It seed like the by-products that fell from the chanical golem’s body would be much more valuable.

In particular, the ruby the size of the head that hung over the eye seed worthy of being presented to the queen.

After returning to the capital of the South Root Clan, Deus and his party

rested under the auspices of the royal palace for a day and were called by the queen early the next morning.

“I never thought it would be so easy to open.”

The Queen had already been briefed on what had happened in Area R42 the day before, so she did not specifically ask about what happened there.

“It wasn’t simple. “Our hero was outstanding.”

“That seed to be true. It took the combined efforts of 20 dwarf warriors to barely move that heavy door. I can’t believe I opened that thing by myself. “Where could such incredible power be hidden in

that tiny body!”

Zeke lowered his head.

“I just borrowed the power of magic.”

“Humility is the best virtue. Lord Kielce seems to like you very much. “Every ti I get a chance, I hear you praising your abilities, which makes my ears tingle.”

“I am honored that an outstanding knight like Lord Kielce looks favorably on .”

The queen laughed.

“Lord Kielce is now

preparing a gift for you. It looks like they will collect precious materials from the bodies of hydras and chanical golems to make combat boots. “They say you lost your boots while fighting Hydra.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“You can look forward to it. “We dwarves are very dexterous.”

“It is an honour.”

Zeke has been making a living by working part-ti since he was young.

I learned the etiquette and formality of dealing with nobles even before I entered elentary school.

The Queen was satisfied with Zeke’s attitude and turned her eyes to Deus again.

He was a cocky guy, but strangely enough, he didn’t feel bad.

On the contrary, I found its rough appearance attractive.

“You kept your promise to .”

“Now it’s your turn to protect it.”

“i get it. “In the na of our Southern Root Clan, we will find the dwarf who traded poison between the demons and dragons.”

“Okay then, believe that and go back.”

It was a full day after the eting with the queen ended when the

group returned to the ground .

Kielce made combat boots for Zeke and gave them as a gift.

The war boots, made with Hydra’s skin and chanical golem fragnts, were so strong that it was difficult to find a match in the world.

It may be slightly inferior to a weapon made of dragon scales, but it was more than enough for a B-class hero to use.

Deus arbitrarily nad it Doomsday Boots to emphasize that it was a set.

“You’re diligent, Zeke.”

Zeke’s food stall has reopened.

After the regulars’ evening snack ti had passed and it was getting quiet, Deus and Yul Geum visited his stall.

“Did you take a nap?”

“yes? ‘Tina’?”

Yulgeum stroked his face. Deus smiled and pointed.

“It looks like you drooled.”

“no it’s not?”

“Is there a pillow mark on your face?”

“There’s no way my skin isn’t that elastic

!”

Zeke waved his hand.

“It’s not like that, it’s already past 11 o’clock…

“I just closed my eyes for a mont.”

“You must have been tired because it was a long trip.”

Yulgeum has now transford into a perfect human body.

I felt sleepy at night and tired when I exercised. Having to go to the bathroom was a bit inconvenient.

Deus said to Zeke.

“So are you okay? “As soon as I got there, I cleaned up the store and even opened a street stall.”

“I’m familiar with that.”

“Have you t your younger siblings?”

“Visits are only possible on weekends.”

“It’s tomorrow.”

“yes.”

“Then tomorrow, don’t co out to the store, but go visit .”

“But…

“President’s order.”

Zeke bowed his head.

“thank you. “It only takes an hour or two, so I’ll use my lunch break to co back.”

“You may be like that, but your younger siblings are still young. “You have to comfort him well.”

” yes.”

“So, what kind of cooking did you learn from the dwarves?”

“yes! “I’m making it right now.”

“What?”

“Grilled pig’s feet. They say it’s Schweinhaksen. “The pig’s legs are boiled in traditional dwarf liquor and then baked in the oven.”

There was a small brazier on one side of the street stall. Seeing that it was emitting hot heat , it seed like

the brazier was being replaced by an oven .

“looks delicious!”

Yulgeum’s eyes sparkled.

“They say it’s chewy and crunchy. “I don’t know how well I can do it since I’m only making it by listening to it.”

“If you’re Zeke, you’ll do well. “You can make anything delicious.”

Deus agreed with Yulgeum’s words.

“No one can match your cooking skills.”

“It’s bittersweet. “I wanted to hear that your swordsmanship skills were at least as good as this.”

At first glance, Zeke showed his sincerity.

“There are many things I wish for. “Live with gratitude for being able to do at least one thing right.”

“That’s right. Besides, whatever your skills, you’ve hunted a hydra before.”

“yes?”

“I don’t know if I would have been able to win if Alex hadn’t cut off my tail.”

“uh? “Have you noticed?”

“I’m quick to notice. During the battle, I happened to see Alex inside the cave.

“I already learned at the warrior school that the hydra’s weak point is its tail with a weight on it.”

“Alex, after taking care of this idiot’s business.” Yulgeum said.

“There’s nothing to bla the butler for. That’s how good Zik-kun’s eyes are. Maybe he’s not a B-class hero in Zeke’s army. No…. If I grow by gaining experience like I am now, I might grow to level A or G or even higher.”

“This is a huge complint. If I can maintain this level of B, I am very grateful. If you think about it, I was able to survive thanks to the weapons Deus gave .”
