Chapter 20 – Ruins Guard Request (8)
“Do you have anything to take over?”
“Ah, that’s it. We didn’t know about it just a while ago…”
When the dwarf father asked, Francesca explained something. You must be talking about Nefertiti. I watched their conversation over a bonfire.
They were a dwarf from the same dwarf order, but Francesca was taller. The harp is bigger, is dwarf DNA recessive? If you look at the specs, the abilities are pretty good.
Evolutionary theory is also an abomination. Darwin you are wrong. Here, the gods take the Chingkara Hoi sun and create humans. You crush peas with Mendel.
“Grunt. A group of goblins, Sekhmet’s mithril adventurers…”
After hearing the explanation, the Dwarf father made an impression. But it had nothing to do with us anymore. If they think they’re looking around, they’ll take care of themselves.
“Looks like the takeover is over. Let’s go, everyone.”
“Turn it off.”
We left the party and the dwarf man who made the sound of shitting and left.
As we got closer to the place where the traces of the previous whipping were left, Francesca and I spontaneously sped up our steps. I don’t know if Nefertiti is still in the forest, but I didn’t want to see her a second time.
“What is this… Did you do this with a whip?”
Est and Paragon also looked at the remaining traces and realized that the reaction between the two of us was not oversensitive. Humans were creatures that could only be realized by seeing with their own eyes and experiencing with their bodies.
Thus, the party’s movement speed changed to leap forward.
“Kyaa!! (Food!!)”
“Kyakyakya!! (Let’s follow!!)”
Because I moved with the emphasis on speed, I ran into goblins differently than when I came.
I didn’t know that there were still goblins left. Did Nefertiti stop hunting and return? I thought so, but the creature that I wished not to have appeared suddenly in front of my eyes when I was vigilant.
So, I started to give true education to the Jammins.
“Fuck off please!!!!”
“Gyaaak!!”
I wielded my power savagely like a woman pregnant with Hwanung’s child.
A bear with children is one of the most popular beasts in the wild. A time when even falling leaves are seen as weapons to harm one’s own children. Against the bear at this time, even the hysteria of menstruating women is nothing more than a helper next to Dooly.
That’s why, as Vectorman Bear, I focused all my attention on the battle, and the results were tremendous.
Awesome!
All of my attacks hit without missing a single shot. It was all critical. With the amount of damage to catch mobs and the tanking power to withstand attacks, teasing the body became much more bold.
Booung!
Puck!
“Gyaaak!!”
I cut off the head of the left goblin and reversed the trajectory of the sword to cut the head of the other one as well. I found the guy timing the attack from behind the headless guy, but passed it.
It was essential to catch the perfect gap in order to step into the range of the attack that was behind when it came in. And it was a harsh treatment to ask that goblin to catch that angle.
“Rain Gods, Thousands of Thousand Manryuk!!”
Wedge liquid!!
Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!
The greatest advantage of the increase in physical strength was in the sheer increase in power. Overwhelming power car! Even my jab would feel stronger to the opponent than the hook, so even a meme that prioritized speed and technique was enough to kill.
“Gyahak!! (It hurts!!) Gyahak!! (Sick!!)”
What I unfolded was four cuts. Down hit, up hit, left and right slash once each. It is an herbivorous meal that even a kindergartener in the first year of Jammin can develop with just a twig.
I reproduced it with brute force. In the documentary of Grizzly Bear (green)’s sword dance, sea salt splattered on humus. The sound of bloody water applauded my sword dance.
Smack! Smack!
Jurrureuk.
All 10 goblins were slaughtered in a matter of minutes and turned into manure for the forest. It was very auspicious that Green Jammin, who harms people, is helping nature.
“Wow… Fighting each other is no joke.”
Est, who couldn’t even get involved in the battle, said. The javelin she grabbed to fight returned sullenly to her back, unable to stab a single goblin.
“Yes. To be honest, I was surprised too.”
Unlike the first time I used Beast Return, it was really no joke to keep calm and fight. If this was a prank, it would be a prank to shove a sleeping person’s head with a hair clipper.
Damn, even with my clumsy swordsmanship, I can’t believe this power!
What impressed me the most was the feeling I felt during the battle. It was as if I had caught a glimpse of how masters far superior to me fought.
Maybe it’s because of seeing a giant called Nefertiti. I got a sense of how adventurers with the level of Beast Return fight and think.
Warriors with superior strength do not think they will be hit by an attack.
Even if the enemy tries to attack or counterattack, he has the confidence to break through and slit the opponent’s throat.
This sounds obvious, but in fact it is not at all.
The reason I was able to get a glimpse of the battle at that level right now is that goblins are quicker to count from the bottom among monsters, and it’s because I was sure that I wouldn’t be attacked by them at all.
If this was an opponent who would threaten my life, would I have been able to show the same coolness I am now? It was probably impossible.
──It is important to show this confidence to opponents who are similar to or stronger than you.
I thought that was the biggest factor that differentiated a proper fighter from a strong cock.
“It was a great battle. You’ll get out of the iron class as soon as you get a chance to request a monster eradication.”
Jammin, drawn by Paragon, said after praying goodbye to Mixjuices.
“Are you hurt anywhere? I will treat you.”
“Um, no.”
Before being hit, everyone gave out half a bowl of porridge, so they couldn’t get hurt.
By the way, in the end, I didn’t get this little heel from the crowd. There was no need to get hurt while fighting monsters anymore. The walls of Sargadis were already visible outside the forest.
Bubbly.
I went home with my friends on the way home.
The sun had slanted west a long time ago. The horizon in the blue sky was burning red as if a torch had been set on fire. Makes me want to eat fucking meat.
I looked up at the sky while thinking about the balance of the barrel. A hazy moon rose in the sky. The moon in the other world was fucking big, so I could see it well even at sunset like this.
It was a plump half-moon like pork belly.

“Four iron class adventurers. Confirmed. Pass by.”
As always, we returned to Sargadis after going through the identification process of the guard who switched on my trauma.
The street in front of the castle wall at sunset.
We discussed before parting at the inn where I stayed and the place that leads to the Auduumla Adventurers Guild.
“What about goblin fangs?”
Said Est. I thought she was asking whether or not to use the sales proceeds as N-bread, but Francesca’s answer was a little different from what I expected.
“I sell it to the guild. The price difference isn’t much.”
“The amount is only this much, so won’t you buy it?”
“What do you mean? Didn’t they buy it even if it exceeded 10?”
“Mr. Priest, don’t go around talking nonsense like that. Even if you fill your pockets, you will be told to collect more and come to sell.”
I don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about. Let’s just shut up.
It seems like a conversation to the effect that a small quantity will not be purchased. In this world, even if you catch a golem and take only the flowers attached to it, no, this is?! It’s different from the RPG games you buy.
Guilds probably saw shobu only by buying cheap items like goblin teeth in bulk.
It was similar to the part-time job of attaching eyes to a doll and getting cursed at for why you are doing such a thing when you attach only 10 dolls to your daughter and take them home.
“Do you want to sell it to the wizard guild? I’ll get nothing but a bargain.”
“It is a vicious tactic. I know the guild doesn’t buy them, so I’m extorting money from people who want to dispose of them quickly.”
“It seems there is no other way.”
“I don’t mind doing that.”
As a result of the discussion, Goblin Tooth decided to hit the urgent victim. It was decided to dispose of it to the wizard guild, just like selling it to people who hoard avatars in games.
“Then—who wants to take it to the alchemy guild and sell it?”
There was no one to answer those words. I could also figure out why. He was annoying to do it himself, and he was concerned about eating and running to leave it to someone else.
The small amount was also a factor that increased the risk of eating and running.
─All right.
The fangs were such that they couldn’t even fill a small pocket.
That’s because all of the goblin fangs we captured were the ones we caught in the cave. In the woods, Nefertiti was so busy bouncing around like a local mutt being chased by a Mad Max repairman’s truck that I didn’t have time to take care of it.
I don’t know if that will come out with 1 copper per person.
1 Cooper. Even if someone made up his mind and lay down on his stomach, saying that he would slit his stomach, it would be an amount that would make him hesitate to pull out a knife and stab his stomach.
“… Leave it to me I’m a priest of the fertility god who officially belongs to the church, so I don’t have to worry about running away from you guys. How about when I come to the church to receive it later?”
“Are you okay? Shall I leave it to this man?”
“To that idiot? I think I will go to church to get money and listen to the doctrine of the god of abundance for over an hour.”
“How did you know?”
You know, because 21st century Korean dog-dog bastards go around like that. To me, who was suffering from free drink tasting ladies, the method of evangelism in another world is as plain as lukewarm water. You’re not ready yet
“Sheesh. Even if you do this for a hundred days, the answer will not come out. Let’s decide with this.”
While saying that, Est took out a 1 copper coin. Est flicked it with his finger and received it with the back of his hand.
“We’ll choose front and back and go until the last one remains.”
It was a common bet in a different world where there was no rock-paper-scissors. Since I started receiving my salary, Dana and I often used this to pay for drinks.
“I will.”
“Yeah. Not bad.”
“Well.”
“It’s nice that there are no complaints. Then I’ll bet on the front side. The side with the picture on it is the back side.”
At Estuga’s words, we each decided on the front and back sides. Francesca, only one person walked on the back.
“Then throw it.”
Bangleur—.
Good!
Est threw a coin and he caught it. Luckily for me, I could see which way it landed on the back of my hand. As everyone’s attention gathered, Est revealed the coin on the back of his hand.
As I could see, it was the front. Est smiled broadly.
“Yes~ I won the party leader~! Are you going to get the money next time? You can get a rough idea of how much it will come out, so don’t be fooled!”
“Ahh…”
Francesca, having failed at her all-or-nothing gamble, grabbed her pockets as she wept.
After processing the japtem, we moved to Audumla Guild.
“Francesca-sama’s party for 4 minutes. Here’s the payoff for success.”
Charreuk-.
The receptionist subdivided the coins into 4 coins of 10 copper each and placed them on the reception table. This is a world where there are no disposable bags, so payment is always this way.
“Hey, I have something to tell you.”
In addition to that, Francesca explained the variables that arose from the request to guard the ruins. It is a story about the breeding of goblins and Nefertiti.
Excluding my speculation, I only gave facts and witness information. It’s best not to get caught later.
“Goblin breeding?! Oh my gosh! You must have worked hard!”
The male employee made a fuss like that and offered just 4 more coppers as extra compensation. It’s true that being an adventurer isn’t something a bastard would do.
After two days of trembling with that shit, the daily wage received was only 11 coppers. It’s an uncivilized world no matter how you look at it. Where the hell are my human rights? Did you leave it at Carmine University?
No shit. I was also a thesis ninja while working as a slave there. My human rights are probably nowhere in the world.
Anyway, we each took our paycheck and put it in our wallets. It was time to part.
“Okay, it’s over! I’ll go. If there is another request next time, let’s do it together.”
Est said that and left. It was a refreshing farewell, like going to work after a part-time job.
“If you get hurt, come to the Church of the God of Abundance. I will heal you at an affordable price.”
Before returning, Paragon also made another world-style sign and said. It didn’t mean that they would give me a discount, but that they should come because the treatment cost was the cheapest.
“Mister Nord. You had a really hard time today. More than the last sewer.”
Said Francesca, who stayed by her side until the end.
“Honestly, just looking at his performance, Mr. Nord was more like a party leader than me. I really owe you a lot.”
“Just because you’re the party leader doesn’t mean you have to work more. In the end, it’s just a matter of getting it properly squeezed from the top and throwing it.”
I dissuaded Francesca from bending her back. She’s not even bronze, and everyone else is there. It was hard to imagine that the receptionists would decide on a party leader after in-depth discussion.
─Let’s just fuck him. Rather, what would you like to do tonight?
It’s probably something like this.
“Lol. Anyway, just thank you.”
Francesca laughed and she said so.
Come to think of it, she was a dwarf with a good laugh. At first, she looked at her with hesitation. It seemed like we became pretty close because we worked together.
“I am staying at an inn called Children of Mutarat on Third Street in the city. Next time you come, I’ll buy you a drink.”
“It’s good to drink. I haven’t had a drink in a while.”
It’s been a while since I haven’t had a drink in over a week. During my master’s degree, I drank more than once a week. That’s because it felt like the mental point was restored.
“The children of Mutarat, right? I’ll see you soon.”
“Yeah! If I’m not there, you can tell the innkeeper and go!”
It seemed that Francesca had sincerely recommended it. Honestly, I thought it was a casual greeting, like saying let’s have a meal later. Is there no such greeting in this world? I don’t think I’ve ever heard of it at Carmine University.
Anyway, we said good-bye this time as well and parted ways.
The biggest harvest of this quest was the primitive magic ‘return of the beast’, but besides that, he also benefited from the promotion. I hope I can become a bronze class within this year.
“But we still have a long way to go.”
Come to think of it, a master’s degree is still at the same level as a Dongjang level. When I get back to the inn, I should write a thesis.
When it comes to writing, if you don’t write it right away when you think of it, it’s always delayed.
