## Chapter 1186 – The Dwarf Kingdom of Magnaglat

It was truly a perfect infiltration.

“…”

The inside was just an empty room; there wasn’t much there. Just some chairs and a desk neatly arranged. Was this some kind of furniture storage? It did feel lived-in, though.

—Thump!

As I waited, Karin also entered.

“What is it? An empty room?”
“Looks like it. Anyway, let’s go find that Romillerjauwd bastard.”

I immediately went outside the room with Karin.

The hallway was empty.

But judging from the sounds, the upper and lower floors were very noisy. The dwarves inside were probably preparing to defend the building or going out to attack.

“Let’s head towards the noise.”

I said, lifting my foot.

“Let’s go down. I’ll make a staircase for you.”
“I didn’t know my demigod husband was also talented in architecture.”
“For a demigod, architecture is a basic skill.”

—Thump.

As I lightly stomped my foot…

—Thwack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The floor shattered, creating a hole leading to the floor below. You could step on the edges to descend, so it could be considered a kind of staircase.

“Ugh! The ceiling!”

I heard the dwarves’ voices from below. I exchanged a glance with Karin and jumped into the hole together.

—Thud.

And landed.

“…!”

A group of dwarf warriors with axes looked surprised and gaped.

“O-oh…! T-these bastards! Intruders! The humans who attacked!”
“How did they get here so quickly!”

They didn’t seem to know the situation outside yet. Considering it hadn’t even been five minutes since we slaughtered the warriors, they might not know.

“Hehehe, nice to meet you, my furry friends. I have a favor to ask. Could you tell me where Romillerjauwd is?”
“How did you get in here! And the warriors who went outside!!”
“I killed them all to get in.”
“Ugh! Ughhhhh!!”

Oops.

The dwarves screamed and charged at me, and I crushed them with my bare hands as I suppressed them. Wherever I went, all I could do was kill a bunch of dwarves.

I was walking around covered in the blood of warriors. Anyone who saw me might think I was a heretic who believed in some god of blood. That kind of crazy misunderstanding! I can’t stand it! Everything starts from misunderstandings! Misunderstandings are like a kind of curse!

Anyway, Karin and I slaughtered all the dwarf warriors who attacked us as we roamed the hallway.

“Huk!”
“Kyaaaaack!!”

I also saw ordinary servants and maids busily moving supplies. Of course, we didn’t touch them unless they attacked first.

Let’s just ask them something.

“Excuse me.”
“Kyaaaaaaaaack!!!”

The hairy dwarf maid screamed and burst into tears when I spoke to her. The male servant had already fainted after wetting himself.

“Stop screaming. Answer my question. I’m looking for Romillerjauwd. Where is he? Tell me quickly.”
“R-Romiller J-J-Jauwd… Huk!”
“You don’t know?”
“N-no! I-I don’t know the room he always stays in, but…! W-when I last saw him, he was in the conference room!”

Conference room?

“Where is that?”
“I-it’s two floors down… I-it’s too difficult to explain! I-it’s inside… Huk! Please save me!”
“I don’t kill those who don’t attack. I only kill those who do.”

I immediately passed by the dwarf maid.

“Sis, it’s two floors down.”
“Then we should go.”

—Clang!

I immediately stomped my foot to create stairs and went down to the floor below.

“Huk!”
“Uwaaaack!”

By now, the rumor had spread, and the dwarf warriors in front of me threw down their axes and ran away. Yeah. If you want to live, run away. We don’t kill those who don’t attack. The grudge is with Romillerjauwd, not with those unrelated dwarves.

—Clang!

I stomped my foot again to go down to the floor below.

“…”

This floor was quiet.

“Hey. The sound… it’s coming from that direction.”
“Looks like it.”

The hallway was empty, but I could hear a sound from somewhere. I immediately moved a little with Karin and…

Stopped in front of a wall.

“I think it’s this one?”

—Tap tap.

Karin said, tapping the wall. Judging from the sound, it seemed that a considerable number of dwarves were gathered beyond this wall. Were they holed up inside?

There’s no need to open the door and go in.
I punched the wall as it was.

—Clang!
—Rumble!

The wall shattered, and fragments flew everywhere. A huge door, big enough for about ten people to enter comfortably, was created. Even without using any special skills, it was this powerful. I really do have a talent for architecture.

“The wall…!”
“Change formation!”
“It’s them!”

Inside, as expected, was a group of dwarf warriors wearing fancy armor. But these guys seemed stronger than the other dwarf warriors we had just slaughtered.

“The smell of blood…!”
“It seems all the warriors are dead!”

This is a jackpot.

“ROMILLERJAUWD!!!! Are you there!!!!! Answer me if you’re not a cowardㅡ!!!!”

I immediately called out to him.

“Kuk…! W-what voice is that…!”
“Khaaaaack!!”

The warriors were in pain.

“I!!! I am Romillerjauwd, human!!!”

Then, a voice burst out from among the warriors. It seemed he was being protected. So, these guys were Romillerjauwd’s bodyguards? It seemed so.

“Romillerjauwd!!! Why are you trembling here instead of coming out!!!”
“Who’s trembling!!!”

—Swish.

Then, the guy who was among the bodyguards revealed himself. He was a dwarf, but he was a little taller than the other dwarves, and he was fatter on both sides. But his whole body was full of muscles, and his red beard and mohawk hairstyle were impressive.

He’s strong.

But he’s below my level.

“Finally, we meet, Romillerjauwd!!!”

If I settled things with this guy, the rest of the journey would definitely be smooth. Of course, that settlement was synonymous with murder.

“You! What did you do to my warriors!”
“I killed all the brave and reckless warriors who attacked me with my own hands!!!”
“You crazy bastard!”

If I were a crazy bastard, I would have killed all the guys who didn’t attack too.

“Slaughtering our warriors! You’re completely insane, human! You’re triggering a full-scale war between the dwarf kingdom and the human kingdom!!! Do you know that!!!”

This crazy bastard!

“Don’t talk nonsense, you psycho furry bastard! It was your sending a warrior squad to me that was the root of the problem! You’re the one trying to ruin the relationship between the human kingdom and the dwarf kingdom!”
“What nonsense are you…!”
“Shut up, you moron who doesn’t even know the ‘d’ in diplomacy!!!”
“What!!”

That’s why uneducated bastards are a problem. He was acting like he was joking, but this was a serious incident that could literally lead to a full-scale war between races!

Romillerjauwd was doing such a thing without a second thought!

A demon bastard who was trying to start a war that would devastate the lives of humans for a trivial reason!!! The world calls such a being a War Demon!!!! This guy is a War Demon!

“If you don’t kneel down and pay alimony right now, I’ll kill you! The same goes for your bodyguards! I’ll spare you if you don’t antagonize me, but if you do, you’ll only die!!!”

Of course, I would kill Romillerjauwd even if he knelt down and paid alimony.

Because this bastard sent too many warriors to me.

He’s an enemy I can’t live under the same sky with.
I don’t spare such beings.

“Foolish Romillerjauwd! Know your mistake!”
“You’re completely insane! Are you forgetting that you killed our dwarves!”
“Bullshit! That’s because those bastards attacked me first, Romillerjauwd! Are you a coward who just gets beaten up when someone picks a fight with you!”
“I’m not!”
“Me neither, you son of a bitch!”
“Wh-what?!”
“You’re just a bastard made from hair collected from a barbershop by a drunkard on the street! How can such a guy have parents or siblings!!!”
“Uwaaaaaaack!! Kill him!!!”

—Waaaaaaaah!!

As Romillerjauwd shouted for an attack, the bodyguards all drew their double axes and charged…! Yeah! These guys were real warriors who wouldn’t stop fighting even when faced with death! It was only natural that it would turn out this way!!!

“The courage of a warrior who doesn’t fear death!!! I, Kim Kat, will gladly devour itㅡ!!!!!!”

Today, I will kill all these bastards and absorb their fighting spirit! More blood and death will only hone my soul!

“Die! Huuuumaaaaan!!!”

The first to charge was Romillerjauwd. He flew at me, wielding a very fancy axe fiercely.

“Wilderness Blood Jade Hand.”

—Grip!

“Huk!”

The axe blade was caught in my hand in vain.

“Slow and weak.”
“You crazy!”
“Give it back!!!”

I took his fancy axe and swung it. —Slash!! The rushing sword flames. With a single swing, over ten bodyguards were split horizontally, spilling blood and guts.

—Clang!

And I kicked Romillerjauwd in the abdomen, sending him flying far away.

“Aaaack!”

—Thump!

The flying Romillerjauwd crashed into the wall and slumped down.

—Thwaaaang!

Next to me, Karin was rampaging. As her sword energy flashed, all the other bodyguards were cut to pieces. The unfolding swordsmanship carved up the bodyguards who were attacking from all directions.

It didn’t take long to clean up the scene.

I stepped over the bodies of the bodyguards and approached Romillerjauwd, who was sprawled out in front of me.

“I-I can’t believe you’re this strong…!”

He was completely pale and horrified.

“Didn’t you already know?”
“You crazy bastard! Kill him!”
“I’m going to kill you anyway, you bastard.”

I immediately threw away the axe I had taken and drew Byugal.

“But don’t think this is the end! My subordinates have already gone to tell our colleagues in various places about this! Our king will also intervene in this matter!”

Colleagues from the warlords?

I didn’t think there would be any, and a king would be a bit tricky. But a king isn’t a king for nothing. A guy who doesn’t listen and can’t calculate profits and losses can’t sit on the throne.

Negotiations would be easy.

“No matter how strong you are, you’re not stronger than our kingdom’s hammer army and the great God Hammer!”

Romillerjauwd shouted.

“The great God Hammer? What’s that?”
“The strongest dwarf! You seem strong, but the great God Hammer can do this kind of thing easily too!”
“Bullshit. Then I’m God Sword.”
“You crazy bastard!”
“I hope you live peacefully in the afterlife with alopecia!”
“Wh-what…!”

—Slash!!

As I swung Byugal down, Romillerjauwd’s head fell off and a fountain of blood erupted.

With this, the grudge was repaid.

If this bastard is reincarnated, I hope he becomes a hairless dwarf with alopecia.

“Ugh, finally the situation is over.”
“Yeah.”
“But God Hammer and the dwarf king. Are you going to be okay? Isn’t it going to be more troublesome?”
“I don’t think those guys are going to be more crazy than this bastard…”

For now, I’m not afraid of anything.

“Still, since we raided these guys’ base, we should be okay for a while. The other dwarf warlords are probably this guy’s competitors. Would they try to move after seeing their competitor get crushed without even putting up a fight?”
“Ooh. I see.”

Karin immediately put me in a headlock.

“My husband is so smart.”
“Well, it’s going to be a bit annoying if the king comes, but this kind of thing won’t happen.”
“Anyway, shall we go get some loot?”
“Hehehe, that’s good.”

Whatever. The immediate problem was solved. I wouldn’t be chased by dwarf warlords anymore. I was going to minimize friction, so I just had to be careful about the situation where the king came.

He might not listen, but the dwarf in the position of king wouldn’t ignore me.

And from the start.

The king and the warlord couldn’t be close.
They’re enemies.

Maybe the king would thank me instead.

“But God Hammer.”

Is he a Sword Master level?

I’m a little excited.

* * *

After returning, I relaxed while telling heroic tales. It was truly a great victory. I killed countless warriors and covered myself in their blood, and I devoured all their fighting spirit and souls. It was truly a perfect day.

And exactly two days later.

“Hooray!”
“Hooray!!”
“Waaaaaaaah!!”

The human nobles attacked the mining area owned by Romillerjauwd and occupied it all. Now that he was dead and the warlord had collapsed, it would have been easy to swallow the mine.

Anyway, smiles bloomed on the streets because of that.

“Hahaha. Thank you so much. I don’t know how to repay you for this.”

And a human noble came to thank me. The news that Karin and I had slaughtered Romillerjauwd had spread. It was only natural since I had brought his head.

“We had been confronting him for a long time, so thank you for doing such a great job. The Romillerjauwd warlord… those guys have been reckless for a long time. The mine we just recovered was originally ours. But they took it by force, citing ridiculous reasons…! It’s so refreshing.”

He must have been a real bastard.

“Hmm. But aren’t other dwarves going to invade?”
“How could they? The Romillerjauwd warlord was a problematic group. We live in the dwarf kingdom, but we have a very legitimate position. So other dwarves don’t say anything to us.”

Anyway, it’s a good thing.

“Ah, by the way. Do you know about a city called Kshir?”

I had to go there. The warrior I caught and killed last time told me that there was a dwarf sanctuary in the city of Kshir.

“Kshir? Are you talking about Barkshir?”
“Well, yes.”

Was that the full name?

“It’s a dwarf city in the west.”

West, huh.

But finding one sanctuary is so hard, really.
