Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 63

———

15. Awakening the king’s dream (2)

The family’s training equipnt was designed to increase strength, so it was not suitable for actual combat practice.

However, it was not appropriate to use dragon-made weapons, so the shield and sword from the weapons store were placed on separate carriages.

With Deus’ permission, of course.

Scatul’s skills were much higher than the ‘sowhat’ level he said.

He seed to know most of the miscellaneous sword techniques prevalent in the human world and had already changed his sword technique for the third ti.

“This is the swordsmanship of the Holifer family.” Holifer had also t Zeke in person.

I tensed and held my shield tightly.

The swordsmanship of the warriors was broadly divided into shield swordsmanship and attack swordsmanship using a two-handed sword as the main weapon.

When dealing with strong enemies, shield swordsmanship was used, and against moderate enemies, attacking swordsmanship was used.

Scatul put pressure on Zeke with his fancy sword skills.

Since it was just practice, it was not a risk of death, but it was an intense sword fight that could result in serious injury if one was caught off guard.

Zeke was very nervous and blocked Skatul’s sword with his shield.

Several tis I was exposed to danger from sword strikes that exceeded my reaction speed.

A normal person would have already been scared and arched his neck.

But Zeke was a warrior.

Every ti his body stiffened, he thought of Deus’ eyes.

Then, courage surged throughout my body and I was able to generate greater strength.

Faster and stronger.

He struck away Skatul’s sword, dug through the gap, and stabbed it with the tip of the sword.

Scatul laughed and pushed Zeke’s shield away with his hand.

Using that repulsion, he escaped Zeke’s attack range.

“He is soone whose end is unknown. “It’s not like he was hiding his skills.”

“That’s too much praise. “You blocked it so easily.” “

I have never seen so many people in my life who were not afraid

even when I was attacked with all my might .”

“That

’s a lot of courage.”

“Thanks to Deus.”

“It’s because of you, master?”

“Whenever I look into his eyes, courage surges through my body without knowing.”

“Look into my eyes. You can be strong. “It’s a phrase that could be used in a pseudo-religion.”

Zeke blushed and scratched his head.

“But… it’s true.”

“It’s not sothing you can’t understand.”

Zeke looked straight at Scatul.

His words of understanding sounded rather strange.

It sounded as if they had experienced the sa thing.

“Aren’t you curious about his real identity?”

“Is it identity?”

“yes. Is soone so strong really human? They carry dragons with one hand,

fly freely through the sky, and show no respect to even the king of a nation. “If you were an ordinary human being, would you still be alive today?”

“He’s… not human?” It would be a lie if I said I didn’t know. But Zeke constantly turned his head away from his doubts.

“I won’t listen. “If he wants to hide it, I won’t know about it.”

“That’s a lot of trust.”

“He

worked miracles like a savior for and the Holly Jade family, who were nothing.”

“It feels like faith.”

“I dare not say that I am more than God. “I will never disappoint Deus unless God orders it.”

Scatul smiled slightly.

“Mr. Zeke is a good person.”

“haha.”

Scar Tull spoke again to Zeke, who was smiling awkwardly.

“Then please co again.”

“Yes old!”

Zeke adjusted his shield and held it.

Now we just move forward.

Zeke’s grasping hand was bloodless and white.

“If you think about it, isn’t it strange that dragons didn’t establish a country on the Jose continent in the past?”

While climbing the mountain path, Deus suddenly raised a topic.

Yulgeum imdiately took the bait.

“Isn’t it strange at all? The dragon race has no greed. “I enjoy leisurely living in the sutra.”

“Then why are there boundaries?”

‘Gyeong’s border’ was a kind of magical passage connecting ‘Gyeong’ where dragons live and the continent of Jose.

“That’s right,

to co out to the human world. Or maybe the dragons who originally lived on the Jose Continent fled to Gyeonggi after being pressured by humans. “It’s probably one of the two.”

“I just heard that the world is good for dragons to live in, and the continent of Jose is good for humans, so they just stay in their own land.”

Deus spoke again after Scatul.

“Dragons like jewels. If you have enough gems, there is no need to co out to the human world. “Isn’t it best to block the boundaries and not pay attention to each other?”

“You can’t survive just by eating rice.”

Yulgeum spat out and opened his mouth again.

“Besides, dragons need various substances to reproduce. “To obtain those things, you have to interact at a minimum.”

“That’s why I think it’s strange not to establish a kingdom.”

“I don’t know why you say it’s strange.”

“It’s not just dragons. Why don’t the underground people co to the surface? “Isn’t it more convenient to fight for the land yourself rather than exchanging the gems you can find in the ground for wheat?”

“How can you say it’s comfortable to go to war? “Do you know that their way of thinking is even weirder?”

“What about demons?”

” huh?”

“Then why are the demons trying so hard to co up to the ground?”

“The demons will know that well.”

“There is no specific reason. There are people who say they crave the sun or sothing, but you can live just fine without it. “If I lived in the 666th century or in purgatory, I would be able to get used to it.”

Deus pointed his finger.

“There are dwarves in the ground. The forest in the northwest is a fairy. The world is a dragon and the continent of Jose is a human. And the demon world is the demon race.”

Deus folded all five fingers and turned to everyone.

“Isn’t this still strange?”

“So what’s strange?”

“666th century. “How can the boundary not collapse for over 60,000 years?”

Skatul, a fairy race, and Yulgeum, a dragon race.

Despite Deus’ questions, the two beings still did not notice anything unusual.

But Zeke looked different.

“Then… it’s the sa with the human kingdom. The border has not changed for 666 centuries. The king does his job as a king, his

subjects do their job as subjects, and the commoners do their jobs as commoners. “On rare occasions, wars for the throne occur, but even those are battles between royal families.”

“60,000 years is a really long ti.”

“I think so. Even a rock would be broken into several pieces in that amount of ti.”

Scatul cleared his throat and joined the conversation.

“From my perspective as a Ho Ho Fairy… I am saying that this world created by God is that perfect. That is why order is maintained for a long ti

. Rather, it is now the first valley of Achaiatta. “Why don’t you be a little nervous?”

As I climbed the slightly steep stone steps, I saw a deep valley beyond.

A steep gorge beneath a cliff-like ridge poured out a torrent of water.

I continued climbing the mountain along the narrow path that runs along the ridge.

It was at that mont that my leisurely pace, like a walk, stopped.

A sharp scream tore through the sky and huge wings were seen splitting the sky.

A red dragon with blazing wings.

It bared its teeth and blocked the group’s path.

[Step back.]

Deus, who was walking ahead, raised his head and looked straight into the dragon’s eyes.

“First of all, we should beat them up and make them talk to each other, right? Zeke!”

“Yes, Deus.”

“good!”

” yes?”

“Defeat it.”

“? “A dragon?”

“huh. “I also gave you a swordsmanship teacher, but that’s all you need to do.”

“It’s been 15 days.”

“There’s a saying that even if you don’t see each other for three days, you’ll be amazing.”

Zeke turned his head and saw Yulgeum and Ska Tool. The eyes were like those of an abandoned puppy.

Yulgeum turned his shoulder and took out the wizard’s staff, and Skathul drew his sword and announced his intention to participate in the war.

Still, encouraged by the fact that he didn’t have to fight alone, Zeke pulled out his sword and shield.

The red dragon was montarily taken aback by the situation in front of him.

Only 4 people.

They, who are just humans and ordinary fairies, are attacking them!

Even a D-class hero would never face a dragon with a party of only three or four people.

The red dragon looked down at Zeke, who was standing in front.

I felt the energy of a dragon.

It seed like he had several weapons made from dragon flesh.

I barely believe that!

I was angry.

Since when did dragons beco such funny creatures?

Just one being was a disaster that could determine the rise and fall of a nation!

It has been like this since the peace treaty was signed with humans.

The red dragon roared towards the sky. A harsh sound echoed across the mountainside.

anwhile, Zeke took a deep breath while holding his shield in front of him.

I would be lying if I said I wasn’t scared.

It’s a dragon.

The head height is close to 10 ters. A huge monster whose entire body is covered in red scales is screaming terrifyingly.

My legs were shaking just by standing in front of .

Still, Zeke was able to stand there.

“Can’t you just throw in like last ti and solve it?”

I tried making comnts.

Deus’ answer was heard.

“It would be a sha if I couldn’t use the swordsmanship I had learned to the best of my ability. “He’s the butler I hired

at a high cost because of you .”

“Thank you for that. But…

“Don’t make a fuss when you fight. Then I bite my tongue.”

At the sa ti, the dragon’s front paw aid at Zeke’s head.

The fingernails were black and shiny. It seed like my intimacy with the underworld would increase by 1 just by passing by.

Zeke raised his shield and blocked it from the front. A clear sound, like stones colliding against each other, erupted.

The shock of that mont was not sothing that could be explained in one or two words.

For a mont, I thought my height had shrunk by half. My back ached from the pressure pressing down on my entire body.

However, Zeke has not only been the owner of a restaurant.

I stepped back to offset the impact, kicked my back foot hard, and ran forward.

He quickly closed the distance and struck the dragon’s shin with his shield.

Kang!

Any living being hurts when their bones are hit.

The dragon’s movents

stopped for a mont due to the pain.

At that mont, Yulgeum’s magic and Skatul’s sword strike penetrated the dragon’s left and right sides.

The sound of an explosion and a sharp whistle cutting through the air are intertwined and echo for a long ti in the canyon.

There was no reason for Zeke to stop there.

He put his weight on Doomsrino and cut the dragon’s knee.

That was his limit due to his height, but on the other hand, his short height made it difficult for him to deal with even when he was being attacked.

The dragon bent down and swung both arms. The claws collided with Zeke’s shield, creating violent flas.

Zeke tilted his shield to block the enemy’s attack and used the montum to roll on the floor.

He went behind his leg and inserted the knife into the ligant of his heel.

Although the dragon’s body is powerful, Doomsrino, the sword of the demon world, was not an ordinary sword.

The tendon was deeply cut and red blood poured out.

The red dragon swept its long tail and

attacked Zeke.

Zeke fell flat on the floor, protecting his head with his shield.

As the tail bounced off the shield and split the air, Zeke ran forward again and cut off the other leg.

Deus, who was watching his fight from afar, whistled.

“It’s nature.”
