Episode 18 – Blacksmith 4, who is suspiciously good at handling corpses –

There are roughly two categories of nobles.

One is a case where one simply occupies a position and rolls for profit.

The other is a case where you increase your skills and make gains.

And those who fall into the former category often have no sense of reality.

Civilized people are ruder than barbarians because they don’t split heads when they say rude things. Like the proverb .

I don’t know the fear because I don’t have an intuition for battle.

If you don’t know that, you mistake the power of the position for your own power.

Because all knights and wizards obeyed when the empire was mentioned.

But… The fact that they didn’t notice.

We are students at the Empire Academy, the best academy in the empire.

My father. He is a marquis.

My friend’s father is a duke.

This is a situation where there is nothing to bow down to in power.

“It won’t matter much if the ownership of the Dragon Heart becomes known after it is determined.”

Once ownership is confirmed, the family will not be able to say anything.

We also have a cause.

“Bah, stop it quickly!!!”

Officials tried to prevent it somehow, but it was pointless.

Elijah Adonis disabled the limbs of the first two with his quick speed.

Sylvia Rennen began to set up a barrier in the center of the hangar to prevent them from escaping.

Since Theseus could not use auror reinforcement, he supported us from a distance with his sword.

And I just cut down people who came close.

Sometimes at home shopping, people are cut cleanly as if cutting paper by saying that the knife works well.

The dwarf did not know our suffering, so he watched us from outside the hangar.

From her perspective, it would seem like she was just stealing someone else’s fruit.

Since she didn’t have any shares of her own, she didn’t particularly want to participate.

When the dozen or so people were slowly being rounded up.

“aaa!!”

The official who was trying to scam us with the law rushed towards me.

With the dagger taken out from within his bosom.

I guess they thought I was weak because I didn’t have one arm.

Just like I fought Professor Rachel and won.

Hostages, along with surprise attacks and exploiting weak points, are one of the few ways to win against someone stronger than you.

But what can I do?

I am stronger than I thought.

I deliberately pretended not to have seen his attack.

Keying

And when he faced the results, his face was filled with astonishment.

“… Uh?”

His dagger did not do its job.

The dagger successfully reached my body. It’s just bent like that.

“Uh-uh… !”

Strengthen your body with auras to prevent daggers from getting stuck.

Activates the aura eruption at the appropriate time and bends the dagger with its repulsive force.

The gaze of the official who was trying to stab me changed from the bent dagger to my face.

And in his eyes, I saw myself glaring at someone.

He was tired of just thinking.

I wrap the blade of the dagger that was still bent and in contact with my body.

Device Geek

And he straightened the dagger back to how it was before stabbing me.

The man who saw that appeared to have lost strength in his legs and sat down. He took a step backwards with his back facing the floor, as if he was looking at a monster.

However, humans are not quadrupedal animals.

The man who tried to run away with his two arms and two legs could not outrun the man who walked on only his two legs.

Eventually, a wall behind him blocked his path.

A face-to-face meeting took place between the assassin and the victim.

“So, would you like to have a conversation with me?”

“If you only spare my life… !”

I smiled when I saw that.

The more the other person looked at me, the more tired I became of contemplation.

“Do you know that? They say that when dealing with people, you must be able to empathize.

The most important thing when dealing with people is empathy.

This is what my parents told me when I was Korean.

It is said that you can have a good social life only if you have good empathy.

This is especially true in closed societies like civil servants, so be sure to keep this in mind.

So, I allowed him to sympathize with me.

His right arm was brutally trampled by my left foot.

He was finally able to empathize with me.

I smiled at him and started the conversation with a nice face.

“I have no intention of killing you. Just who did it. “I’m asking if there are other forces targeting this.”

Naturally, this kind of behavior seems like a crime committed by an individual aiming for performance or the Dragon Heart itself.

There are always exceptions.

This guy could be from the Lion Corps or the Evil God Church.

If they are behind it, it is not enough to just confirm ownership.

The lion side is the type that approaches illegally when the legal route is blocked.

The problem with evil spirits is the doctrine that they do not have to follow the law if an individual does not follow the law.

“Ah. Official, you may have some hope that the empire will take revenge, but throw it away.”

“Eh?”

“Right, Theseus? No. Theseus Winterfield.”

“What…?”

I just walked shoulder to shoulder with Theseus.

His face was openly exposed for the official to take a good look at.

And the official’s face turned pale when he saw Theseus’s face.

“The Duke of Winterfield… That…!”

“What?”

“Wait a minute…!”

All the surrounding officials start to get upset at those words.

They seem to have realized what their future will be like.

They chose to be bound like that.

“Abraxas. “It’s all over.”

“First of all, cutting off limbs wasn’t a good idea, so I just broke them.”

“The barrier has been completed, so there is no need to worry about escaping.”

Now that the cleanup is over, all that needs to be done is disassembly.

Of course, the interrogation did not stop.

This is because there could have been other forces behind it.

“Silvia? Please arrest everyone here. Don’t let me run away anywhere. And Theseus. “You are interrogating this person while beating him up.”

“What if there is a disturbance?”

“It’s okay. I have four limbs left.”

“That person is missing one arm?”

“You can cut your hair too.”

“Ah.”

The highest person who heard those words made a hissing sound.

I ignored it and looked at the dragon’s corpse.

As the official said, organic matter whose life activity has ceased will lose value over time.

Even if the dragon heart is fine, there will be problems in the rest of the body.

Since he doesn’t like that kind of thing, he decided to disband right away.

I turned around and looked at the dwarf.

Even though we were already in the hangar, the dwarves just watched from afar.

She didn’t even come close and was just muttering something.

Ah.

“Why is that person outside the barrier?”

The dwarf was unable to come in right now.

This alone was an embarrassing situation.

Puck ㅡ Puck ㅡ

“So who is behind it?”

“The manager of our department… !”

“If there is someone behind it, there’s no way the manager is the one behind it.”

“Now, Minister… !”

This situation, combined with the sound of Theseus interrogating him from behind, created a truly peaceful scene.

“Just open the door and come in or whatever.”

That dwarf will be able to break through it on his own.

I decided to just leave it alone.

—-

The dwarf broke the barrier, and the broken pieces of the barrier fell into the hangar.

Since it was only a fragment of magic power, there was no damage.

Her own barrier was shattered by her single blow, and Sylvia Rennen’s heart was shattered as if it had been attacked by a dwarf.

“My… The barrier… In one shot… “

I comforted her like that.

“That dwarf lived for 1,500 years. “It’s natural to lose, so you don’t have to blame yourself like that.”

Being upset about something like that is like blaming yourself for not being able to prevent an earthquake disaster.

I can’t stop it anyway, but I’m hurting my feelings because of it.

And so the meeting between a 1,500-year-old dwarf and a dragon that lived for hundreds of thousands of years continued.

Basically, for humans who cannot live for less than 100 years, both are long enough times to be close to eternity.

“… “

And the dwarf who saw the dragon’s body watched quietly without saying anything.

He stopped the interrogation for fear of damaging the dragon’s body. A situation where things are not progressing.

I spoke to her, wondering what on earth she was doing.

“What on earth are you doing? Body analysis?”

She answered me with a different look than before.

“A dragon is a creature that flies in the sky with power like the ocean. “Powerful forces are inherently repulsive to external forces, so he is trying to find a way to bypass that force and come up with a plan to reduce the damage.”

And the dwarf answered in a lower voice than before.

The voice was similar to the recorder that came out when her house was knocked on.

And the others were taken aback by the sight of him abandoning his previous childish tone of voice.

I knew, but I was a little embarrassed because I didn’t know it would happen now.

‘There was even talk that I might have bipolar disorder or dissociative identity disorder.’

She is close to a random encounter in WFS. It took her players a long time to even recognize that she was all the same.

This is because it was thought to be just a copy of the modeling. Her name wasn’t even revealed.

But they had the same data number in the system.

It turned out that it was just a different text being output.

So there were many hypotheses about why such a being was born, but I don’t know.

For me, who was left behind before the truth was revealed, this is just speculation.

Even if it doesn’t come out, it doesn’t really matter because there are many secrets that haven’t been revealed to the world.

“The energy emanating from the center of the living organism can be said to be more powerful than any other dragon, but the body does not reach that level.

No matter how powerful a being is, it is destined to eventually collapse in the face of time.”

And she keeps muttering something.

Other people didn’t seem to understand, but it sounded clear to me.

A dwarf who has lived for 1500 years. I don’t know how he lived, but even the dragon was eventually destroyed by the passage of time.

She also thinks that she will be broken.

“So you. Did you ask to dismantle this dragon? Scales, horns, teeth, claws, and even a heart. “Everything.”

“Yes. “Can you do it?”

“It is possible. But let me give you one piece of advice.”

“What is it?”

“Do not covet eternity. Eternity can never exist. When mortality tries to gain immortality, the only end is destruction. “For every beginning there is an end, so if you have a premonition of your end, humbly accept that end.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I have no intention of forcibly extending my lifespan.”

“Then it’s okay.”

After saying those words, the dwarf used magic to take out a huge greatsword.

From the looks of it, it was not for dismembering corpses, but for decapitating people, but once it was in her hands, I performed the role assigned to me well.

The scales leave the body and clearly reveal themselves.

The horn, which was firmly embedded in the body like a mountain, came out as if old pus had been removed.

Teeth as hard as steel eventually began to fall out like an old man and came to us.

And finally, after everything was over, what we had longed for welcomed us in our hearts.

“This… !”

Dragon Heart. A legendary treasure said to possess nearly infinite magical power.

The best material, with less than 5 in the empire.

One of the rarest and most valuable materials along with the fruit and silver branches of the World Tree.

When the dwarf took out the heart and handed it to me, I lifted it carefully.

It felt like I was receiving a low-frequency massage as the magical power spread through my hands while buzzing.

This is even though the diluted force is transmitted through blood vessels, bones, muscles, and skin.

If you were to hit the heart directly, it would not be able to withstand the force and would explode and die.

“This item is now yours. And… “I’ll give you a special condition in return for giving me important information.”

“Huh?”

“@Y#*!)$YDU!(@&$#&!@)@^&X(!JXI!@(@$%}{“

Then, something like an ancient, sacred spell began to be recited, and unknown letters came out of her body.

From noble mtl dot com

Then, the letters began to intertwine and surround the dragon heart, creating a tattoo on the dragon heart.

Because it happened so suddenly and the opponent was stronger than me, I was blinking and embarrassed as I couldn’t do anything.

She casually explained the spell currently on Dragon Heart.

“This spell is a spell that allows you to only affect the Dragon Heart as much as you allow. No matter what you lend to someone or what you do, you will always have the most influence until you die.

You can’t break the dragon heart. “I don’t know if anyone can break a dragon heart, but if they could, it would be easier to rip off your head.”

“That means… !”

“Actually, I have cast all the magic I can, so I guess this is the end of my role for now.

I don’t know who you are. However, since you have given me such a reward, it is only right to return the favor.”

“What did I do for you?”

“Just because you know doesn’t change anything. Nothing will change. “Because, unlike creative works, there are many unrevealed truths in the world.”

“I guess so.”

Even though this is not that good, it is an amazing feature.

Because I saved money.

All you have to do is prepare insurance, but the insurance premium is the problem of the rental company, not me.

Conclusion: You can rent this dragon heart right away.

While I was so happy and making plans for the future.

I remembered the interrogation I had entrusted to Theseus.

“Wait a minute, so who’s behind it?”

I could return now, but if there was someone behind it, I might have to clean it up, so I asked Theseus.

And Theseus told me what he said.

“They say he is a heavenly god.”

… ?

Heavenly God. The creator god who created this world together with the evil god.

Could it be that the Heavenly God gave this Dragon Heart…?

Just sleep.

“How many times did you hit it to get a result like that?”

You obviously started out as the manager of your own department.
