Chapter 1182 – Magnagrat, the Dwarf Kingdom

After completing his contract, he returned to the inn and reported the fact.

“You’re meticulous?
“In this day and age, a race that values ​​trust enough to write a contract unconditionally? Aren’t these dwarves better than I thought?”

The response was generally positive. Not only Winia and Karin, but also Riztina, who was thorough in this way, were terrified and liked it.

“Whoa, whoa, I’ve finally come across a common sense situation. Really. So far, only nonsensical things have happened. Now I can move a little more comfortably.”
“Is it so good that common sense works?”
“Of course. I also hate pointless violence.”

That’s me too

“She’s in a good mood. She has a feeling that things are messed up because of the thief’s head her, but she can’t help but be able to gather information peacefully like this.”
“That’s right! I think this is all because Katt-nim is so virtuous!”

The common sense situation we encounter after a long time has brought peace to our family. Having warmed up for no reason, I felt a good feeling towards the dwarves as I wiped my brows.

Hehe, what a natural thing to say.”

Yes what Although this world was barbaric, common sense and rationality existed, ideal for a normal society.

A contract is like that.

I feel very good.

“Kat. Do you feel that good?”
“Sure!”

Cloudy also brushed my cheeks with a bright smile.

“Seeing how happy Kat is, Mama is also happy. Then, Katt. Shall we start right away? Or take a day off?”
“I think it would be better to leave this a little further away and just go tomorrow morning. What should I do?”

Time must be punctual.

“Umm… I think it would be good to take a day off before going, Father.”
“Ari, then vote for taking a break. How is everyone?”

At that, everyone agreed with Ari’s opinion of her.

So let’s take a day off and go.

*           *

We got up before sunrise the next day, got ready, and headed to the mine the village chief told us about. I was able to arrive about an hour before noon, and it turned out to be quite a lively mine.

“Oh.”

Humans, dwarves, and all of them have become cigars, and they are enduring hard labor while dragging a real guruma. There is no racial difference in front of hard labor. I found it somehow beautiful.

This was the mine, the home of Kuruma.

“Ah… The air is not good as expected, Father.”
“I’ll wrap you in a cloth. But doesn’t Alaune purify the air?”
“I can do it, but I don’t want to do it because I don’t want to dirty my father’s body.”
“That, like that!!!”

I immediately wrapped a cloth around Ari’s face her.

Then, he looked over the mine.

“Oh, are the kids working too?”
“Whoa, whoa, they’re pretty cute kids.”

They said that while putting on a happy expression.

Looking at it, some of the children were doing their labor while being completely spoiled… Surprisingly, in addition to the human children, there were also a lot of Dwarf children. It was as if they had undergone secondary sexual characteristics, and all of them seemed to be looking at hairballs.

It’s like a crazy hairy race.

Among the swear words commonly used among dwarves, there is a curse that says that the hair in the mother’s womb has not even fallen out. This is said to be a derogatory term for a young boy whose hair he left in his mother’s womb when he was born is still young.

It was an insult that I immediately came up with after seeing that dwarf kid.

Hehe, the kids are working hard.”

Anyway, seeing how even the kids are working hard and living like that, I can only think that I have to live even harder than I am now. Young master said that if three people are on the road, at least one of them has something to learn.

Anyway, looking at the gray landscape, I headed for the office.

“Oh! A letter from the village chief Jijamo!”

When I showed the office manager the letter I received yesterday, he pretended to know and read it.

“That’s right! That’s why I sent someone!”
“Monster?”
“Yes. Look, look at mine number 4 on the other side. It must be blocked. The monster has entered it and has not yet come out. It is hiding in it. Workers who were already inside at the beginning became its victims. “
“How long have you been dead?”
“Fifteen people haven’t come out yet.”

A whole bunch of them were slaughtered by one monster pup.

I do not forgive!

“He made his way through the mine with great agility under the cover of darkness … He probably died a terrible death.”
“It’s quite a horrifying event. Can we continue operating the other mines?”

It’s currently in progress, but the kids were working in the mine.

“Well, dead is dead. Because work has to be done.”

I guess so.

“Let’s see… This is the map of the mine. I hope you look at this and kill him.”
“Believe me.”

I immediately accepted the map and went outside to find the blocked mine.

As I was told, I went. I saw a mine with a blocked entrance in the distance. There were barricades and a number of guards standing in front of them.

It was when I was going there.

“Devil!”
“Is it Hilde?”

Hilde shouted and put our heads together before speaking in a whisper.

“It’s the devil…! The energy of the devil! The evil presence of Pandaemonium is out there!”
“What? Was it the devil?”
“To think the devil could penetrate this far.”

These bastards have come a long way

Isn’t it safe here too?

“Fufufu, anyway, it’s good if it’s a demon. Thanks to Hilde, I can easily find it.”
“Just trust me!”

I climbed the mine with Hilde, who instantly became confident. We showed the village chief’s letter briefly explaining that we were here to catch demons from the guards, and they immediately removed the things blocking the entrance.

And.

We went inside

ㅡPay.

As soon as you enter, turn on the light and follow Hilde’s guidance to quickly move inside. Already inside the mine, the smell of rotten blood was vibrating. It is only natural that workers were slaughtered in a closed space.

Then I found the body.

“Fuck mother.”

The corpse was mostly bone, and there was a mess of things like eggshells on the abdomen.

“I think these are the ones who lay eggs on corpses.”

She said as Winia tapped her eggshell with the tip of her toe.

“Whatever it is, it’s terrible.”
“It’s about to give you chills…! Anyway, it’s not far, so hurry up!”
“Okay!”

As I went deeper inside, I encountered red eyes.

—Jiing.

Eyes that burn red in the dark. However, several small eye-lights were clustered in one large eye-light. It must have been natural since the devil had a baby.

ㅡKyuuuuu…!

Soon a strange sound is heard.

When the light shined on it, what was revealed was poor demons that looked like they had forcibly put together the upper half of an ape and the lower half of a snake.

“Strength… No matter how you look at it, it’s a bit stronger than a normal High Demon.”
“Is that so?”
“It doesn’t seem like they’re a communicative species, so I think it’s better to just kill them quickly.”
“Okay. Rock Paper Scissors. Let’s go to Rock Paper Scissors.”

Risha and Ari were missing, so we immediately played rock-paper-scissors.

“Oh yeah!”

It was Karin who won.

ㅡSureung!

As soon as she won, Karin drew her sword and kicked the ground.

ㅡWhere you go!

Let the blade imbued with sword steel once sweep through space.

ㅡChahhaaaaa!!

With just one blow, the hordes of demons were pulverized.

“Well, it’s nothing special. Are the dwarves unable to solve these things?”

That’s a real dog

In the first place, that kind of thing is not even an opponent. In order to fight like a fight, at least bring the Great Devil.

“Normally, he’s going to be a tough guy to deal with. The people here are overly strong. If he’s stronger than a High Demon, destroying a village won’t be a chore.”
“It’s not like that.”

At Hilde’s words, Karin nodded her head, and we immediately took some corpse pieces and went outside. Let’s go back quickly.

Come to think of it, we’re fucking fucking shit.

Normal people would struggle against monsters like that, but not us.

*           *

By the time I went back the way I came and reached the village, it was already sunset. Immediately after sending them to the inn, I took the sack containing the demon’s corpse and headed for the village chief’s house.

“Ohhh! Did you come back after defeating the monsters!”

There were quite a lot of dwarves gathered at the village chief’s house, but it looked like they were having dinner as a group. The smell of stew wafted from somewhere, and a number of dwarves were eating while sitting at the table.

“It wasn’t even a difficult opponent.”
“Show me the proof.”
“Is it okay if I take it out to eat?”
“No problem, take it out immediately.”

ㅡpattern.

I immediately unwrapped the sack and took out the fragments of the severed heads of the demons inside. With the fishy smell of blood, the hideous pile of flesh shows off its presence.

“Ohh… I see. Such a monster.”

Immediately, the village chief and other dwarves gathered and held a fair.

“You look weak.”
“If I had known it would be like this, I could have gone there myself. If I hadn’t been afraid and had brought my weapon…”
“It should have been resolved soon.”
“I’ve only lost money because I was scared.”

Whatever the evaluation, it was time to fulfill the contract.

From what I’ve seen, these bastards would have been fucking dead if they had gone to fight directly with their weapons. A normal high demon has the fighting power of a trained knight, so if it’s a little stronger than that, you’ll probably need to replace 3 platoons of normal al-foot soldiers to become an opponent.

He even had cubs, so he’ll need more.

No… There are some guys who can feel mana. No matter what, subjugation itself would be possible if these guys were mixed.

“Ah. What about the… Victims inside?”
“They were all white bones.”
“Oops.”
“Then let’s fulfill the contract.”
“Contract! Yes! It’s time to understand the contract!”

ㅡKhehehe.

At those words, the gathered Dwarves started to laugh.

What are these bastards?

ㅡRemember.

The village chief took out the contract, and the other dwarves gathered behind him like bees to look at the contract together, as if they were looking forward to it.

“If you do our favor… Kill the monster nestled in the mine, we have a contract to give you the answer to your question verbally. Is that right?”

Right.

I nodded.

“I’m sure it is.”

So hurry up and tell me what you know about the old temple.

“You even signed it properly. Our contract is very legal, no problems, no cheating. Isn’t it? Human priest.”
“I don’t know why you’re emphasizing that, but I agree with you.”

What is this bastard up to?
Why is your attitude like this?

“Yes. Then you will have to fulfill the terms of the contract. I will tell you the answer. Ask me.”
“What I asked was about an old temple or temple. Are there any such religious facilities nearby? Tell me what you know about them.”

It was the moment I said that.

“Hmm. According to the terms of the contract, let me tell you what I know.”

He paused for a while.

“I know nothing.”

Said that

“What?”

Well?

What do you mean?

“What do you mean by that?”
“You mean you don’t know.”
“Why?”

What is this situation
Why do not you know.

ㅡ…

Looking at it, the dwarves behind the village chief were holding back their laughter.

“The terms of the contract were ‘tell me what I know’. That’s why I tell you what I know. It’s an old temple… I don’t know anything about that.”

This.

“We made it clear in the contract that we would tell you what we know, and we just let you know what we know and no one knows. The signature is perfect, the contract is perfect. You agreed to everything from start to finish. It’s the content. There’s no saying anywhere that I’ll give you accurate information. I always answer what I know verbally. It’s like this.”

The village chief said so with a very calm expression.

As if it were natural.

“Chuckling! You don’t look good! Didn’t I tell you! There’s nothing as important as a contract! We’ll have to be aware of this situation if we’re going to travel to the Dwarven Kingdom!”

Now I get it

These bastards were making funny dwarven jokes now.

Hehe. It was a funny joke.”

These bastards were a race full of humor. I’ve never heard of such an interesting race. Perhaps the nickname of these pups was Laughing Fairy? I roughly know that.

This is fucking funny

“Therefore.”
“Hmm?”
“What about the old temple?”
“Didn’t you say you didn’t know?”
“So.”

Under.

“I’m not kidding.”
“That’s right.”
“Did they take advantage of us by pretending to teach us something?”
“We would have simply fulfilled the right contract…”
“Shut up, you bastard bastard!!!!”

ㅡpain!!!

My palm, accidentally launched, hit the space.

“Ohhhhh!!!”

A powerful slapstick was inserted into the cheek of the village headman who was on the trail.

ㅡQuaaaaang!!!

At the same time as the blow, while rotating sideways, the fired village head shattered the wall of the house and flew all the way to the outside. His grotesque screams faded away in the Doppler effect.

Yeah… They used me.

“Uh, aaaaa!! Chief!!!”
“Mi, crazy bastard! Kill me!!!”
“Waaaaa!!!!”

Seeing that, the Dwarves fell into a frenzy and started attacking me.

“Come on!!! You fucking swindlers!!! Today is your memorial day!!!!”

These fucking dwarfs!!!

The only good dwarf is a backward dwarf!!!

“Do these hairy bastards who haven’t even lost hair in their mother’s womb dare to cheat on big brother!!!”
