Chapter 124 – Chapter 30. To the North Continent.
Jihyeok didn’t know that the princess would make such an offer.
There has never been a single round where he participated in the Kigant subjugation. He had a chance in the 14th car, but then he had no contact with the muscular girl Ganesha. And he had no intention of participating in the demon lord subjugation. … But this time was different.
Shall we try… ?
It was something I had to do anyway. He had no experience fighting Kigant at all, which was a bit of a drag, but this side still had an S-class 3rd rank hero. If Jihyeok was added to that, it was enough power.
“No?”
“No, I will.”
At the cool answer, Ganesha lengthened the corners of her mouth from side to side.
“Baby, the answer is cool, so that’s good.”
“… By any chance, can the warriors of my guild also participate in the battle?”
“Who?”
“Mafushra is a mixed-race beast.”
“Mafushu?”
Ganesha thought for a moment with a confused look on his face, then nodded her head.
“Okay… , About one thing.”
“So, are there two teams left?”
“Yes.”
Jihyeok thought for a moment before opening his mouth.
“Can I recommend one more? It’s for Mama to decide whether or not to put it in…”
“Under… , Okay. What kind of baby is this time?”
“Gunda is a dragon named.”
“Do you?”
The princess nodded as if she would remember and rose from her seat. Jihyeok also stood up.
“Okay. Do not note … If you’re an asshole, be prepared to get scolded for it, you bastard.”
“Yes.”
“Baby.”
Ganesha hit Jihyeok’s arm once.
“And you know our match isn’t over yet, right? … Bitch, if I’m serious, you’re really after me. … Uh? Smile? Wow, is this kid laughing? Fuck hair. Do you have a game here?”
“It’s nothing.”
“Nothing. Fuck it, fuck it. Mr. A. … I’m busy, so I’ll just go.”
The muscle woman blinked her eyes once and stormed out of her drawing room.
Jihyeok glanced at the door she left and immediately called all of the guild members. The employees rushed to find the three crazy brothers who went out for a drink.
He went to the meeting room and waited for the guild members to come. After a while, even the three wacky brothers who smelled like alcohol arrived, and everyone except Yayel gathered.
The conference room was noisy for a while. As the warrior lightly pounded the table with his fist, his voice disappeared. The eyes of the guild members were focused on Jihyeok.
“A big incident happened this morning.”
The three wacky brothers nodded lightly, as if they had already heard the rumors. However, it seemed that most of the people did not know that yet.
“An evil cultist came calling himself a death god, declared the coming of Kigant, the demon king, and forced him to obey.”
Demon King!
The power contained in that one word was enough to overwhelm them. The king of demons who is said to rule powerful demons in the demon realm!
“… Isn’t that a big deal…”
Half-witch Ludwig muttered to herself with a worried expression. Everyone in her felt the same way as her. Not a devil, but a demon king descended. It was a rare occurrence even in the long history of the continent. That’s why it’s blowing up right now.
“So, I decided to gather five hero teams from the empire and subdue the demon king who had descended. … The S-class Hero Ganesha came and offered me to join the battle, and I accepted.”
… Ah… !
Everyone was surprised. I never thought I would participate in the battle to subdue the demon lord. A tense light passed through the pairs of eyeballs.
Lizardman Kayak, who read the uneasy atmosphere, quickly glanced at the guild members’ faces and then helped out.
“If the captain decides so, we will follow you even to the ends of hell.”
Orc Grendal quickly joined in.
“If you are a team of warriors, this is the right thing to do. If I am with you, I will gladly jump into the pit of fire.”
The tense atmosphere was slightly relieved. There, the eldest of the three brothers, bald Gide, jumped to his feet banging the table with the palm of his hand.
“Ayy, yes, if it’s a team of warriors, you should catch the Cibs and the Demon King at least once! Then I must be the most popular guy at the bar!”
“Ai, brother, what about me?”
“Sea Pearl, why did I take it off?”
Scar-heavy Bruce and dog-headed Jepopo also joined. The three brothers made a lot of noise saying that they would become popular.
There, the air completely reversed. The fear faded, and courage took its place.
Ji-hyeok, who briefly glanced at his colleagues, added further words.
“This time, the Mafushu team will also participate. All guild members will go.”
“Cyber, that’s good. Let’s go all the way!”
“So, start preparing carefully from today. This is on a different level from a simple expedition. That’s all for fun, okay?”
The three wacky brothers said, “Ugh,” And their expressions became slapped. Of course, Jihyeok didn’t mean to limit himself.
“I’ll give you free time every four days. … Is that enough?”
“I see, chief.”
Still, after playing, eating, drinking, and fucking, it was time to work hard.
Jihyeok smiled and clapped.
“Okay, let’s break up then.”
· · ·
Gunda, who was frantically practicing spearmanship, was horrified to hear that the S-class warrior, Ganesha, had visited. He could not have foreseen the purpose of her visit. There was no reason for a B-class brawler to visit an S-class hero, and even a member of her imperial family.
Gunda wiped off his sweat and quickly ran out of the mansion and greeted the princess politely. As soon as he saw his ragged muscles, his chest felt cold. The feeling of intimidation that hit his body was indescribable.
The muscular woman briefly glanced her gunda up and down with expressionless eyes, holding her hands behind her back.
“Are you Gunda?”
“Yes, Mama.”
“I heard it’s B-class?”
“Yes, it is.”
Hmm-. A look of disapproval was evident.
“… He recommended it, so I was looking forward to it.”
“… Yes?”
“What are you doing? Are you going to keep it?”
“Oh, come on in.”
Gunda quickly took the princess inside. The two entered the drawing room. Gunda gulped down his saliva, sitting stiffly like a recruit.
“Relax. Who ate it? … I’m not really interested in weaklings.”
“Ah yes…”
I know it’s weak, but it didn’t feel good to hear that directly. He clenched his fists on his knees.
… Will definitely go up I will definitely become stronger
I wanted to become a strong person who wouldn’t be ashamed to brag to Mafushu. Gunda made up his mind over and over again.
The muscular woman looked at Gunda with her plain eyes. I don’t like her skills very much, but she seemed to have her guts.
“Do you know why I am here?”
“… Sorry. I do not know.”
“You know what happened to the capital today?”
“Yes, I heard about it earlier.”
“I’m going to subdue the Demon King. Do you know Kang Ji-hyeok’s hero? He also decided to go. But he recommended you. That’s why you came. Just what kind of guy is he?”
“… Yes?”
“Didn’t you understand? Shit, can I say it again?”
“No, I got it. Sorry.”
It was only now that Gunda understood the situation.
“I’m going to have to do some double bathing with that bastard. They say he’s a good guy, but he’s not very good. It’s flimsy, and there’s no ambition.”
“… No.”
“What?”
“I have a spirit.”
Gunda tightened her eyes and stared at her princess. One corner of her muscular woman’s mouth rose.
“Yeah, I like it now. … You seemed like an asshole until just now.”
The princess, sitting with her legs crossed, swayed her feet.
“What… , Can you catch the devil’s babbling? I won’t tell you to catch the demon king, so don’t be too scared.”
“I’ll catch anything you want.”
“Listen to your voice? … Fuck, are you going to play, this?”
“I’ll do as you say–!!”
“I want to go?”
“… I want to go. I will follow you–!!”
“Okay… Then prepare.”
The princess jumped up. She then turned around and went, but she said yes and looked back at her gunda.
“And improve your skills, huh? Shit, it’s embarrassing to take him around because he’s shy. Peck baby… , Okay?”
“Okay!”
Gunda screamed at her throat. The princess was about to leave her drawing room, but she followed him and gestured to him that he didn’t need her.
Soon after, her muscle woman left. Ha-. Gunda sighed heavily and sat down in her chair. Then I remembered Kang Ji-hyeok and Mafushu and jumped up again.
He quickly left the mansion and got into the carriage.
“Let’s go to Kang Ji-hyeok’s Hero mansion.”
“Yes, sir.”
Since it was a place he used to go often, the middle-aged coachman skillfully found his way. As soon as Gunda arrived at Jihyeok’s mansion, he jumped off and walked quickly to the mansion.
Soon the caretaker came out and greeted Gunda. He waited for Jihyeok to come after being shown to the parlor. … Actually, I wanted to go to Mafushu like a chimney, but there is an order. At least he had a cool mind.
… Ha, what is cool-headed reason?
Gunda was self-deprecating. He often remembers comforting his alter ego by thinking of Mafushu every night.
When he heard that Kang Ji-hyeok, the warrior, recommended him, his guilt deepened. … I guess this is the difference between the bowl.
Soon Jihyeok came to the drawing room. He greeted Gunda with a smile.
“Gunda, it’s been a while.”
“It’s been a while, warrior. … How have you been?”
“Hey, I’ve been fine. How about you?”
“I’ve been fine too.”
The two shook hands warmly and exchanged brief greetings.
“I just saw Mama.”
“Oh, I see.”
“You said you recommended me…”
“I did it because I thought Gunda Hero would do well. I’m sorry if I acted presumptuously.”
“No, I didn’t mean it that way. Thank you for caring about me. I felt it was a little too much for me.”
It was sincere. Warrior Kang Ji-hyeok, who had a bright future, took care and even gave me a recommendation, but of course I couldn’t help but overdo it.
Gunda liked that a great person recognized him so highly, but at the same time it was a burden. And that became an impetus for him to whip himself even harsher.
Jihyuk smiled kindly. From that smile, Gunda could tell how wide his opponent’s arms were.
“I have no doubt that you can climb high. I could. Believe in yourself.”
If there is even one person in this world who recognizes you, it is a life worth living once—-.
Gunda felt indescribably deeply moved by Jihyeok’s boundless faith. The first meeting was obviously not good, but now Gunda felt a sincere appreciation and deep friendship for Ji-hyeok.
“Mafushu has also decided to go with us.”
“… Is that true?”
Gunda had an angry smile. Jihyeok said, go see him.
“I have urgent business to do.”
“Ah yes. … Well, see you next time.”
Jihyeok left soon after. Gunda pressed her swollen chest and headed for the backyard. She will be training there as usual.
The warrior moved at a brisk pace. And she was soon met by Mahu Shu, who hissed at her spear.
Ah!
The mixed-race prisoner smiled brightly as if meeting her best friend. Same hero, same spearmanship, same goal—-. There she seemed to feel a deep identification with him.
“It’s all over!”
She came up to him and wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand. Her strong body odor entered his nostrils. … Oddly enough, the smell of sweat wasn’t overwhelming at all.
“Mafushu.”
“Wow, I’m really glad! What are you doing here?”
“I have something to see.”
The two shook hands warmly.
… However, Gunda felt that something was missing.
Today she
I didn’t say that Chichi would stand up fast.
