Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 250

57. The warrior goes out. (3)

“Yes?”

“For some reason, I cannot accept requests in my name, but if you receive a request, I will help you.”

” Really’?”

“I think I’ll be okay for a day or so.”

Zeke saw his own childhood in this boy. He may or may

not have talent as a warrior

. However, before he could put his talents to use, he was in danger of being dried up by life.

If he hadn’t met Deus, he would have ended up as a minor hero.

He wouldn’t have been able to make his younger brother a Leo Paladin.

The Hollybitch family of Joryx Castle must still be looked down on by everyone.

I couldn’t leave this boy alone after receiving such great grace.

“I have some work to do for a while, so I’ll come back. “Go to the hero’s office first.”

“Yes, Zeke.”

Sieg van Witsch was a criminal wanted by the kingdom.

But it was already 11 years ago.

In the meantime, something incredible happened called the Demon World Expedition, and everyone’s memories were blurred.

Moreover, Trudeau was only 2 years old 11 years ago. I wasn’t old enough to have heard rumors about Zeke.

After parting ways with Trudeau, Zeke headed to the Castle Boulevard intersection.

Since the sun had not yet risen, there were few sightings.

Still, I used low-level camouflage magic just in case.

It was a type of black magic that even if you happened to see Zeke doing something, you would pass it by and think it was no big deal.

A large rock bounced out of the white marble.

It was about the size of a horse or cow, so it wasn’t big enough to block passage, but it was sure to attract everyone’s attention.

rock and sword.

As if guided, Zeke approached it and grabbed the sword.

If you don’t pull that out once,

you’re not a man.

A penetrating energy connected the sword, myself, and the earth.

It seemed like it could be chosen so naturally.

That’s why I let go again.

This sword belongs to Regin.

I couldn’t give it to him outright, but the connection would definitely lead to him.

“Wait here for your master Regin.”

After saying it briefly as if it were a spell, Zeke walked towards the city temple.

As it was the capital of Verde, the scale of the temple was indescribable.

An entire block of street was a temple.

There was even a place to sell souvenirs and relics, from the Holy Ark to a temple for priests to hold a monastery mass.

As the sun rose, the traffic of people increased.

Zeke and Trudeau, the boy warrior, were sitting side by side on the steps in front of the warrior management office, waiting for the opening time.

“My heart is pounding.”

“okay?”

“yes! But… now that I think about it, I think it might not work.”

“Why does it sound weak?”

“There is no armor, sword or shield.”

“That’s right. “Is there somewhere I can rent it?”

“…yes.”

“Hmm, you can’t be without a shield and a sword. I can’t. “I will lend you my sword and shield.”

“But then Zeke can’t do anything.”

“are you okay. I have another sword, so I’ll lend it to you. Since this was

a blood-sucking demon sword, Asmodeus found it difficult to lend it to him.

The sword that Zeke lent to Trudeau was a sword with a blade length of 40 centimeters that was usually used for multiple purposes.

Trudeau had not yet finished growing and was only about 160 centimeters tall.

The small island didn’t feel that small either.

Moreover, since it looked

like Zeke’s sword, it had quite excellent performance.

Just because it was an ‘ordinary’ weapon obtained without much trouble by a warrior who was playing around defeating the Demon King, it was not the same for a novice like Trudeau.

The shield was also quite an excellent item made by the dwarves.

However, Trudeau, who did not yet know their value, casually wore the sword and shield and looked forward to the adventure ahead.

The Hero Management Office was opened and requests were accepted without much difficulty.

The grade was C level. Thanks to the fact that one of Trudeau’s neighborhood brothers worked in the management office, some of the illegal laws were passed without incident.

The content of the request was nothing special.

I had to get dark-colored amanita mushrooms from the forest about 3 kilometers outside the west gate.

These days, the mugwort monster has calmed down to some extent, so in the forests near these big cities, wolves were the most feared monsters at best.

It wasn’t a frontier, and the security was stable 3 kilometers away from the Verde Kingdom

.

It was truly a C-level request.

But for Trudeau, this seemed like a huge adventure.

As soon as I left the castle, my whole body was filled with energy like a warrior going to hunt a dragon.

Even if it was 3 kilometers, the road was fairly well paved, so half an hour was enough.

The forest was not a lush primeval forest. One corner was in contact with the field, so there was a lot of human scent.

It was an idle rural area where a village might have been built today if it weren’t for the mugwort monsters that plagued people until recently.

“I learned to be careful in the forest.”

Zeke nodded at Trudeau’s words.

“That’s right. Even if you are a skilled adventurer, you have to be careful in the forest. “Because you never know what might be growing.”

Seeing Trudeau swallowing dry saliva, Zeke laughed again.

“I told you not to be so nervous.”

“How do you not relax?”

“Hmm, in my case… yes, I thought of the Demon King.”

” yes?”

“When I think of the eyes of the devil, my courage rises.”

“But I’ve never seen anything like the devil’s eyes.”

The moment Zeke heard his words, one fact came to mind.

I closed my right eye.

“Now look at this eye. “There is a spell that gives you courage.”

The Devil’s Matter.

Although it only had one eye, it was clearly the devil’s problem.

Trudeau looked Zeke straight in the eye.

Immediately after that, he suddenly started shaking and screaming backwards.

Instead of gaining courage, I was completely scared and collapsed on the floor. I ran away like I was crawling.

Zeke tapped Trudeau on the shoulder.

“You must have courage!”

It seemed that the pureblood level was not very high. Like my older brother or father, he might be a C-level pull-up or lower.

He barely managed to run away after looking into the devil’s half-closed eyes.

Zeke placed his hand on Trudeau’s shoulder again and injected him with the power of the aura.

It gave me courage.

Trudeau suddenly opened his eyes wide and sat on the floor with a blank face.

“Uh… what did I do?”

“I guess I was under some kind of curse.”

“ah! This is why they tell you to be careful in the forest. Oh, by the way, I told you to look at Zeke’s left eye, right?”

“Sorry, it was my right eye.”

Zeke closed his eyes and opened his eyes. He raised the power of his aura and cheered for Tordo.

After the commotion, Zeke and Tordo walked into the forest again.

No matter how safe the area was, the forest was still a forest.

The forest was protected by royal decree because it could not be completely cut down because of the wood and forest products such as mushrooms and medicinal herbs.

In dense forests, insects and small animals tend to increase, and these soon attract large animals.

Predators such as wolves, bears, and leopards were not easy opponents, even for warriors who had learned combat skills.

Of course, this didn’t apply to Zeke.

With his shield in front of him and his sword drawn, Tordo walked step by step into the forest.

The forest became increasingly dark under the shadows of the leaves. As we advanced about a kilometer into the forest, there were almost no traces of people.

I heard that dark-colored amanita mushrooms are not that rare in this forest.

Because it was a poisonous mushroom, wild animals did not pick it and eat it.

It was a regular product for doctors and pharmacists because it had a slightly paralyzing effect, but it was in sufficient supply.

While Trudeau advanced while hiding behind his shield, Zeke looked around to find mushrooms.

“Was the direction wrong? Should we go east?”

“Four four.”

Trudeau’s voice cracked with tension.

“I said it would be okay.”

At that time, a rustling sound was heard from beyond the bushes.

The tip of the nervous boy’s sword trembled.

But Zeke pressed Trudeau’s hand.

“It’s a person. Put your sword in its sheath for a moment. “Because it might cause some misunderstanding.” Zeke spoke in a calm tone. However, the two did not let go of their tension as they looked towards the source of the sound.

“Giggles! A novice and a B-class guy could come all the way deep into the forest like this. “The forest to the west

also looked funny.” The person sharpening the blade with the ax in his lap was an A-class warrior.

Although he wasn’t a pureblood, he seemed to have quite a bit of skill. He was dragging the head of a wolf contaminated with mugwort, which seemed to be twice the size of an ordinary wolf.

Of course, he didn’t catch it alone. I was with a party member who had a good balance of a wizard, an archer, a dual-wielding warrior, and a recovery magician.

Perhaps because he enjoys socializing with people, the A-class warrior made a fuss by saying he would sit the two down and treat them to lunch.

Although it seemed a little early, Zeke obediently accepted his request.

I was hungry, but it was also because Trudeau wanted me to do it.

A look of adoration appeared in his eyes when he heard that he was an A-class hero.

There were about 200 pure-blooded Class A warriors. There were about 100 people in the D-class and G-class ranks above him, so even if he were just an A-class hero, he was a man of great ability.

The number of non-pureblood warriors was several times that number, but even so, there was no doubt that they were skilled fighters that were rarely seen.

“Did you say Trudeau?”

“yes! Yuf!”

“Discipline yourself. Staying still means being pushed by the torrent of time. “It is the fate of those who live in time to constantly have to tap their feet just to stop.”

“I’ll keep that in mind!”

Zeke asked.

“By the way, Mr. Yuf. “Did you see the dark silver amanita mushrooms on your way here?”

“hmm? Our target was that monster wolf, so we didn’t pay attention to the mushrooms. But if it were a mushroom, it wouldn’t be that hard to find…

“I know that too, but it doesn’t look strange.”

“Try to search further. You too are having a hard time. How dare you go wandering around the forest with a novice like this. “Maybe you belong to a rich family who has a good shield?”

Trudeau scratched his head.

“I’m causing trouble.”

“Even if you become a B-level person, you can do one person’s job. Didn’t you say you were pureblood? Harps like us don’t have much power in the final war. “You cannot receive the angel’s protection, so after nine years, you will be the main characters.”

Trudeau said.

“Some people say there will be no war in nine years. “In this crusade, we defeated the enemy’s main force.”

“Originally, majors tend to be inflated by several percent. If you’ve broken through the main force, there’s no reason why you can’t take over the Demon King’s Castle. “There was a rumor that the Demon King was also absent.”

One of the warrior’s companions grumbled.

“There is also talk that Leo Paladin, now known as Gukseo, did not do his job properly.”

“Shh, don’t even say that. “Because he is the king of Verde.”

“I heard you might be dismissed from the Seonghwangcheong Office. “If you are deposed, you may be Her Majesty’s husband, but you will no longer be King.”

“Still, the dismissal was too much. “I don’t know if the foreign woman is a pure-blooded duke, but isn’t she looking down on our King of Verde and attacking her?”

“I guess that’s because I have Cardinal Lecheulet of the Holy Imperial Palace on my back. “Isn’t this living power one of the first candidates for the next success?”

The two continued talking and looked at Zeke in surprise.

Trudeau was a kid so it didn’t matter, but Zeke was a warrior in his prime in his mid-20s.

If the fact that he had spoken about the royal family was leaked by mistake, he might be shocked.

Zeke knew their feelings well, so he actively participated in the conversation.
