#8. Became the leader of the dwarves (3)
‘… … .’
There was silence for a moment.
When I looked around, it didn’t make sense.
The equipment on display was spilling out, and the materials that had been piled up and the equipment that was being made were all disorganized.
‘What a mess.’
What should I do? I’m secretly looking at Hephaestus… .
[Khaha! It’s cool~ It’s cool. How can I use that technology? Have you bought any dwarven powers before?]
Then he burst into laughter once more.
‘What should I buy? ‘How expensive is the power?’
Are you saying that you have nothing to live for, so you buy things like dwarven powers?
One day, when I had that much money, I bought Thor’s power. I will never buy a dwarf or anything like that.
‘I’m glad you don’t mind the mess.’
Damdeok silently shook off the dust, and Hephaestus shrugged his shoulders at the awkward atmosphere and started hammering again.
‘Anyway, it’s a very simple god… .’
Even though his employees were stealing items and a fight broke out, he didn’t seem to care at all.
‘How many times have things like this happened… .’
The giant who was said to be his assistant must have had a hard time.
after. Anyway, I stopped him from stealing it, so I guess that was it.
‘okay. ‘Let’s clean up after ourselves.’
I was trying to put back a helmet that had just fallen.
“You bastard! “I challenge you to a duel!”
A dwarf solemnly blocked the front.
“… what?”
When I asked in shock, a dwarf who was stocky but had enormous muscles shouted fiercely.
“It is impossible for a dwarf to be defeated by the lowest level god! “With the honor of being a dwarven warrior, I will absolutely kill you!”
And then he takes out his weapon.
Cha ja jang!
Cha ja jang! Cha ja jang! Cha ja jang… .
Why are all the guys behind them pulling out their weapons?
“No, what does this…” .”
“Question and answer dance!”
“Do not underestimate a dwarf warrior!”
Ta-da-da-da-da-da-da!
The dwarf men rush in in droves. Not 4, but dozens… .
“What kind of shit manners is this?!”
Wedge!
The ax blade sharply grazed my forehead.
Small things are very good at handling large weapons.
“Aren’t these complete gangsters!”
“What a thug! “We are warriors!”
“Dwarven warriors make their living by honor!”
Damn it!
Do things that make a living based on fame get in trouble?
I looked at Hephaestus in bewilderment, but he gave me a thumbs up and went back to work.
‘What a piece of shit!’
Why are there so many bosses?
This is why you need to research jobs in detail before choosing one!
Sigh! Wedge!
Damdeok swung his club frantically, dodging the shower of weapons.
Burbubbuk!
Puk puk!
The front row of dwarves left, and new ones came in to take their place.
It’s absolutely crazy.
Wedge!
The large blades of the scissors used to cut leather tore Damdeok’s shoulder.
Spot!
Blood burst out and there was a burning pain.
“Ugh! Oh my… “Just do something!!!”
At the same time, fireworks appear in your eyes! woke up.
“I told you to really do something!!!”
Damdeok’s feet kicked the ground again, and this time, not only the club but also Damdeok’s eyes were sparkling with light.
Kwagwaang!!
Just one room.
Dozens of dwarves that were running at once disappeared.
The falling dust showed that the power had increased significantly compared to before.
“No, that’s ridiculous.”
“How could the lowest level god use the dwarves’ unique skills…?” .”
“Not once, but twice?”
The dwarves looked up at Damdeok with dumbfounded expressions.
In the quiet blacksmith shop, only Damdeok’s breathing sound was heard quietly.
It was Hephaestus’ voice that broke the momentary silence.
[The lowest level god overpowers the dwarves… .]
He was no longer hammering.
He was just looking at Damdeok with his eyes shining.
“profit. “I can never forgive you!”
“This is what happened. “Let’s carry out the operation immediately!”
Are you jealous? The dwarves were enraged by Hephaestus’ words, and they crowded into the gap in the wall.
after. What else are you going to do like that?
“… “The part-time job is really tough.”
[Kkkkkk. But what? I wanted to give you a more difficult task… .]
“yes?”
[How about it? Why don’t you make a deal with me?]
Why is your voice suddenly so harsh?
“… “We listen to the compensation and then decide.”
[Wahah! Oh, that’s how it should be. Still, there is one thing that is surprising about the compensation. It’s originally a treasure used by the main gods, but if everything goes well, I’ll give it to you.]
Lord god level?
Are you talking about the 12 gods of Olympus?
It was hard.
“What kind of treasure is it?”
[haha. Well, in terms of value, it’s worth my name… Is it going to be around 10,000? I’ve never converted it, so I’m not sure.]
Isn’t that crazy?
I gained two SS level talents with just 12 Thor.
A treasure worth a whopping 10,000!
must! of course! I had to do it.
He nodded quickly.
[Okay, the rules are simple. We’re going to take down all those arrogant dwarf kids. The meaning of subjugation is to stun everyone! Everyone, every single one of them. If you do that, I’ll hand over that Noble Phantasm right away. step! You may already know this, but killing is absolutely prohibited!]
The transaction conditions were better than expected.
‘I thought you were telling me to bring back everything I stole, or to cure my kleptomania, or something like that.’
If it’s just to stun you, isn’t it worth doing?
Because the Dwarf Hammer skill I just acquired was powerful enough.
‘Plus, there’s a stun option with the club.’
[It won’t be that easy. Other gods tried many times, but failed every time.]
Hephaestus seemed to be pinning his last hope on me.
I comforted him and told him not to worry.
I don’t know what the circumstances are, but I’m definitely going to get that Noble Phantasm anyway.
What on earth?
Just thinking about it makes my heart flutter.
Meanwhile, the dwarves returned armed with all sorts of weapons, and Damdeok’s pupils shook violently upon seeing them.
In front of me were dwarves heavily armed with modern firearms.
“What I’m holding in my hand… “Maybe an M16 rifle?”
It was a familiar appearance.
I saw it a lot in games too.
Cheekcheok. The dwarves lined up in a row were holding M16s.
What’s even more absurd is that
The dwarves lined up behind them were carrying M9 Bazookas on their shoulders.
It wasn’t the end.
I also noticed some guys arrogantly holding pump action shotguns.
Even the dwarves in the distance aiming sniper rifles in a prone shooting position… .
It was truly a grand party.
“Why do dwarves use modern weapons?”
As soon as Damdeok shouted, huge flames began to spew out.
Quack!!
Doo doo doo!! Cheek boom! Too doo doo!
Kwakkwakk!!
“Mr. Lee… !”
In his haste, Damdeok threw himself behind the iron statue.
Thump! Piyung!
The statue swayed precariously from the hail of bullets.
‘These crazy people! ‘What on earth is this?’
If this continues, the entire blacksmith shop will be destroyed.
However, no matter what kind of power Hephaestus used, the inside of the forge was suddenly covered with a strange barrier.
Thanks to this, all the items inside were unaffected by the dwarves’ attacks.
Piyung!
“Keuheuk!”
Damdeok’s body suffered immediate damage… .
‘Shit!’
It must have been pierced through my left shoulder, and I lost feeling in my arm.
Damdeok gritted his teeth and thought.
‘How can I overcome that!’
No matter how awakened you are, you can’t dodge bullets.
‘It’s really against the law to use a bazooka indoors!’
As soon as I thought about it, large shells started flying.
In a hurry, he picked up a lying shield and threw himself away, protecting only his head.
Kwakkwakk!!
The body was blown away by the strong wind from the explosion and ended up in a corner.
I quickly got up and hid behind cover again.
Piyung!
Doo doo doo!
“Fuck you!”
It’s not like we’re filming some kind of war movie!
‘Let’s think about it. ‘You have to think.’
Did you say that humans develop superhuman strength the moment their lives are at stake?
Damdeok’s head began to spin quickly.
Two shots in the arm.
Three shots on the thigh.
The place where Damdeok, covered in blood, rolled his body, was the safest place in the blacksmith shop.
[hmm? It’s a fun idea. LOL. But it’s a bit cheeky, isn’t it?]
“Then what? “If you go out bare-handed, you’ll really die!”
Behind Hephaestus. Is there any cover stronger than this?
Coo! Quagwagwang!
No matter how many bullets rained down and bazookas flew, Hephaestus’ body did not even flinch.
Moreover, the dwarves were quite embarrassed, as if they had not expected him to suddenly hide behind him.
Using God as a shield.
Is this blasphemy?
‘What do you know? Something like that.’
Damdeok immediately ran to the exhibition room.
A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye.
A weapon is a weapon!
“This, this, and this too!”
Of course, in front was Hephaestus as a shield.
Even though he was laughing, he was being led along by me.
“Such a coward!”
“Attack closer!”
The dwarves approached to engage in close combat, but since he already had a strong shield, Damdeok did not suffer quietly.
‘Don’t look down on me.’
Although it was difficult to avoid bullets raining down from all directions, it was much easier to do so now that one side was completely protected.
[haha. Anyway, you’re using me, one of the 12 gods of Olympus, as a cannon fodder… This is my first time seeing a guy like you.]
Leaving him cackling, Damdeok began to counterattack using all the equipment at hand.
Rumble! bang!!
From Zeus’ lightning.
Kukkwagkkkk!!
Poseidon’s splash.
Quad Deuk! Quack!
Even Demeter’s plant attack.
When he had almost destroyed the dwarves’ weapons using all the natural attacks he could, Damdeok grabbed his club and ran out.
“From now on, it is a guerrilla war. “You bastards!”
Puk puk! Burbubbuk!
The sound of threshing echoed throughout the forge.
The dwarves were busy running away as their deadly strategy failed.
Of course, Damdeok followed along tenaciously and continued to swing his club.
bang!! Kwaang!!
Hephaestus nodded in satisfaction as he watched Damdeok running around as if playing whack-a-mole.
* * *
“Whew~ I’ll never do it again…” “Never look for a part-time job as a security guard again.”
Crack.
Damdeok muttered while shaking his hands.
The dwarves were all naked.
I don’t know if it was because of the stun option attached to Hercules’ club, or Damdeok’s overuse of the Dwarf Hammer skill, but one thing was certain.
It is a complete victory for Damdeok.
“Now give me the promised compensation.”
A hand proudly held out.
Hephaestus nodded in satisfaction.
thud!
Box in front. No, is it a chest?
[Open it. It recognizes the person it first meets as its owner.]
“A guy? He definitely said he would give me a Noble Phantasm… .”
[Yes, I said I would give you a Noble Phantasm. You will definitely like it.]
Something feels uncomfortable.
But is there anything else?
Damdeok’s hand opened the box.
“What is it, monster… ?”
Inside the box was a small animal.
[What a monster! Excuse me. Look carefully, it’s a baby fox.]
I looked at him again after hearing his words.
The one wrapped in a coil had fur as soft as pure white snow.
In addition, it has a cute, blunt snout, pointed ears, and bead-like pitch black eyes.
The guy looked up at me with scary eyes.
“Hey, it’s cute, though. I don’t treat pet monsters. also… I’m sure he will give you the gods’ Noble Phantasms as compensation… .”
Where are you looking at this?
What I need is a weapon.
Isn’t the fox cub in front of me a pet that only summoners carry around?
Growing something wasn’t a good fit for me, and I didn’t want to do it.
When I looked at him with a look telling me not to cheat, Hephaestus spoke to him in a language I couldn’t understand.
OK,
– will!
The guy who made a cute noise rolled up his body and said, wow! Doesn’t it instantly turn into a sharp white sword?
A strand of hair fluttering in the air was cut off by the blade.
Damdeok’s eyes widened.
“A living monster with a sword?!”
[Khaha! There was only a sword.]
It was a series of fainting spells.
The white treasured sword rolled up again before my eyes and turned into a sacred-looking hammer, and then again into a pure white crossbow, and could even be transformed into knuckles and arm sticks, which are the core of martial arts.
It’s literally a complete collection of weapons.
Damdeok was half out of his mind with excitement and excitement.
‘what is this! It’s a complete scam, right?’
The fox cub, who had suddenly returned to its original form, snuggled into Damdeok’s arms, and at the same time, Hephaestus’ hand lightly touched Damdeok.
