185. The Price Werft Has to Pay
warrior run.
The demon kings trembled, and what was considered an opportunity for humans to set a ball, when did it lose its light?
It was after the demon king of chloride appeared.
The stars, who are said to be introverts, failed to even find the tower, let alone go brave, and the entire continent even united, but rather reached a climax when more than 10,000 victims were mass produced.
The Demon King is weak.
Humans have the superiority of the Demon King.
It can coexist with the Demon King, even if it is limited.
at the mercy and necessity of human beings.
Things that had been instilled for over a hundred years and implicitly taken for granted were completely broken.
The Demon King is not weak.
Humans and Demon Lords cannot coexist.
Humans and demon lords are enemies.
The Demon King cannot be trusted.
But there wasn’t much that humans could do right now.
It was because the damage suffered by the Demon King of Fire was growing exponentially, but the whereabouts of the tower were still unknown.
The sadness and anger that had nowhere to go went elsewhere.
the same demon.
beings to be slaughtered.
A strong man who knew the position of the tower and gave defeat to humans.
To the demon king of the cold, Reina Sordain.
About three hundred warriors.
5 million allied forces.
And four stars including Ballaf Dislord.
It was a very unusual thing considering the fact that the original bravery was a few hundred, or a thousand at most.
Not just a heroic act, but an extension of the union.
A war between the demon king and humans. He failed to search the tower of flames before that, but he was full of will to undo the failure by killing the demon king of the cold winter.
“I can see the snow.”
“Right.”
A pure white world with no end in sight so far as the horizon is visible. Ballaf This Lord let out a white breath.
His brow twitched slightly.
I didn’t like it. Although the terrain is different, the commonality that the whole world is snow reminds me of Erzest, who watered him three times.
“Isn’t the location of the Tower of Frigid cold certain?”
“If you just follow the map, it is unconditional.”
“I don’t believe in maps.”
already hit it once Following Daphner’s record without a tower was a painful mistake he didn’t want to go through again.
For this reason, the savages of the snowfield were hired as guides. It was also a concern for one person, and for several dozen people.
“I will definitely guide you and the Allied Forces to the Tower of Frigidity.”
The savages shouted in unison. I didn’t really believe it, but I nodded my head. Because he was the first to snow.
The snow was cold.
It reminded me of that damn place.

Monsters also appeared.It reminded me of that damn place again.
Fortunately, there were no avalanches. It’s not a mountain in the first place, so an avalanche will happen…
“Stop!”
Ballaf exclaimed urgently. One step forward, he swung his sword. A huge slash slashed and swept everything in front.
──────!
Red flames erupted from the pure white snow. A storm of mana engulfed the surroundings.
“…Oh my God, what is that?”
“Magic bomb?”
Ballaf’s eyes widened.
The past, when the tower exploded, and fires from all directions overlapped.
“These motherfuckers…!”
Bulduk, who had gnawed his teeth, struggled to calm his heart.
“Sa, I lived!”
“I survived thanks to Ballaf!”
“Long live Ballaf!”
It wasn’t a trap that mattered. That the trap was recognized in advance and destroyed. And because of that, support for him has increased.
yes, that’s it.
‘I heard that there is a possibility that the demon king of flames can help the demon king of the cold.’
If that were the case, it really was.
Balaf’s eyes narrowed coldly.
‘Yeah, let’s try it to the end.’
That will be your last move.
It happened because I didn’t think that a guy with the name of the Demon King would use a magic bomb. Ballaf wasn’t shy enough to get hit twice by the same trick.
“I’m going to turn around here.”
“I’m going to turn around!”
At Balaf’s command, the Allies passed the blazing fire.
“Aww, that’s terrible.”
“These motherfuckers. How can the demon lords use such frivolous tactics?”
“After all, all demon lords must be killed.”
The Allied Forces nailed it. The unsuccessful trap actually fueled them even more.
That moment.
─!
The back of the Allied Forces, who was going well, was cut off.
The ground collapsed. Humans fell through the huge pit. Those who blindly followed the person in front could not even scream.
Kururu-
I heard something rolling. A crashing sound was also heard.
Aww!
Whoops!
A painful groan came out later as an echo.
“Hey, what is this…?”
Aina Diaphrin hurriedly jumped down the pit. Her new model, who was descending sharply, landed softly at the end.
The pit was deep. a whopping 20 m. The height may not be a problem for a well-trained knight or wizard, but the sudden fall and sharp weapons on the floor were not to be seen lightly.
How much more so if it’s the huge chunks of rock that drive wedges in that state.
“What the hell is this?”
The ballaf with a hardened face came down. He was terribly distorted by the appearance of the soldiers who had been crushed under the stones.
“It is designed to turn off when it exceeds a certain weight. When the trap is activated and the target falls, after a while, the stones that other organizations have been working on roll down. It is the work of a very sophisticated craftsman.”
“Dwarf?”
“yes. Perhaps it is their work that they are being captured by the Demon King of Fire.”
“These damn dwarfs…!”
Fortunately, it wasn’t too much damage. It was because it was made by completely excluding mana. He tried to maximize his stealth, but even his destructive power was reduced.
But the problem did not go away.
That there are traps, and that they are difficult to find. No matter how destructive it is, someone dies and gets hurt.
And all humans don’t want to be who they are.
Naturally, the advance will be slower. ate one room.
“Can you tell if something strange is mixed between your eyes?”
“It’s possible if you go with your detection magic. But it’s going to slow down significantly and I can’t cover the entire snowfield alone.”
“What if I put all the Earth Wizards and Water Wizards together?”
“It will get better, but it won’t be perfect.”
“Then do it.”
“As I said…”
“Is there any other way?”
“No.”
“Then what are you worried about?”
“I know.”
Diana summoned the wizards. Balaf distanced himself from them for a moment and blocked the surroundings with mana.
I took out the communication tool.
“You were right. The work of the dwarves appeared again.”
* * *
In a noisy battle, the king grabbed his throbbing head.
How the hell did it come to this?
“quiet! Everyone be quiet!”
Daejeon became quiet.
“Retell their argument.”
“Yes, Your Majesty. Akan, Dormut, Hessen, Hilderan…”
“Let’s just call them humans except for Jespine.”
“Yes, except for the Jespines, humans claim that we have teamed up with the Demon King of Fire.”
It was because of the trap that drove the Union to death.
An elaborate fake tower built by the Demon King, and hundreds of magic bombs installed inside it.
That fire devoured everything. He killed hundreds of warriors and made over 10,000 victims.
Humans claimed that the Dwarves designed the tower, and that they were cooperating with the Demon King.
It was an absurd sound from Werft’s point of view, but it was certain that it was the work of a Dwarf. And there were parts that made sense. 49 artisans kidnapped.
The Werft Kingdom excused that they had been kidnapped by the Demon King and had no choice but to cooperate.
Of course, the seeds were not eaten. The enormous damage was so great that it could not be resolved simply with words, and it was also true that the Dwarves made it.
Humans looked for something to release their anger and resentment. One was cold and the other was a dwarf.
Some kingdoms threatened to destroy the Werft Kingdom right away. There were quite a few kingdoms in the mood to sympathize with it, and the Dwarves had no choice but to go out as low as possible.
War had to be avoided.
“…are there room for compromise?”
“In the Kingdom of Akan, they said that if they catch all the parties and send them back to their home country, they will deal with it themselves and move on to this matter.”
“It sounds like you’re going to miss out on craftsmanship and technology.”
greedy guys.
“Other countries?”
“That is···.”

Most were the same.It was true that the Dwarves suffered a lot of damage due to their skills, but the Empire and Dormut were the only ones who suffered that damage directly.
Countries that were not the parties were full of thoughts of picking up the by-products that would fall under the pretext of this incident.
“then.”
The king opened his mouth, trying not to let go.
“Dormut?”
“The reaper was beaten and kicked out. He said he didn’t even want to talk.”
“Whoa, what’s left is Jespine. What do you think they will say?”
“·················ogue.”
The ambassadors were silent. That was enough of an answer.
“It’s quite gloomy.”
“Your Majesty, we must express our injustice to the entire continent. To be honest, we did our best to support them. When trying to subdue lust, when subjugating pirates.”
“you’re right. Isn’t it our fault that those crazy people, as a group, have dementia and are playing the role of the devil’s master?”
The king’s brow wrinkled.
“It’s not something I’ve already told you! It doesn’t matter to humans. The dwarves helped the demon lord for whatever reason, and he suffered a lot of damage as a result.”
“·················ogue.”
That was then. The gates of Daejeon opened.
“Your Majesty, the messenger who went to Jespine has arrived.”
“Oh, come on! What did the Empire say!”
“that is···.”
The dwarf, who was breathing heavily, fell flat.
“’I am very sorry and I understand the situation. But the Empire has suffered a lot of damage, and Werft must pay a price for it.’”
Oh My God.
The king wiped his face. Instead, they sighed.
It was the worst.
“…are you really going to war?”
“It wasn’t.”
“Isn’t it?”
“What they wanted was a different price. My beliefs are with the emperors and ministers of the empire…”
* * *
The reaper lowered his body tightly. Rather than the hostility of the nobles felt from all directions, the emperor’s intimidation in front of him made his heart tremble.
“So the Werft Kingdom is unfair.”
The emperor muttered in boredom.
“Yes, we have also kidnapped the princess and the craftsmen of the kingdom by the Demon King of Fire. If we fight, we fight, don’t we have any reason to cooperate with the Demon King?”
“Then what was it that drove the corps of their home country to death? They weren’t dwarves, they were just dwarves, didn’t they?”
“…it seems that the kidnapped artisans are forced to cooperate in order to survive.”
I wanted to deny it, but the evidence was clear and I couldn’t deny it. The sage bowed his head even deeper.
“You were forced to cooperate.”
The emperor muttered in boredom.
With each word, the Shinigami felt his spine cool.
“If that’s the case, I’ll understand if my country is forced to burn the Werft Mountains.”
“your majesty!”
“Isn’t that unavoidable?”
“Help me! Never will my country be hostile to the Empire!”
“The hostility has already been done. Jim’s children fell screaming at the beasts you created and disappeared. Can we just end the feelings of parents who have lost their children?”
What is more, Jim is the father of this country.
“your majesty! please···!”
That was then.
The gates of Daejeon opened and a messenger ran in. The guard knights intercepted the messenger, heard the message and whispered in the emperor’s ear.
“Oh.”
The king’s lips twisted. The reaper realized that it was never a good sign.
“Do you know what I just heard?”
“···I do not know.”
“It is said that the warriors who left for the snow field were in a difficult situation because of the magical bombs buried in the snow. It seems to be the work of a clear Dwarf. Send an envoy and, on the one hand, still help the Demon King.”
“··········!”
The Shinigami’s complexion became contemplative.
“Lungs, Your Majesty…! The Werft Kingdom will never…!”
The emperor did not say anything and looked at him silently. The silence pressed down on the reaper even more heavily.
begged and begged A kingdom that was trampled on by the military boots of the empire was envisioned. had to stop had to be stopped.
“…we have no intention of disturbing the Braves and the Allied Forces.”
The time passed like an apocalypse.
after a while.
“I understand.”
The king’s voice was heard.
At the warm voice different from before, the reaper carefully raised his face.
“Jim understands your innocence and injustice.”
by doing
“Jim is going to give you a chance.”
“Go, thank you!”
“Osrian Duke. It is what you have discovered, so speak for yourself.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The Duke of Osrian, who had been quietly present, stepped forward.
“Reaper of Werft.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Not long ago, loyal warriors of the Empire finally found the true location of the tower. But, do you know where the tower is?”
“I do not know.”
“It is a very unimaginable place. This is why the entire continent has worked so hard to find the tower.”
“Where the hell are you…?”
“It is.”
* * *
The king frowned.
“Where?”
“It’s called in the sea.”
“crazy.”
You said you threw the tower into the sea?
The dwarves spit out swear words. It was understandable that I couldn’t find it. No, of course I couldn’t find it.
“Because.”
“Do it?”
“The emperor of the empire demanded a symbol of his country and a sacred object. Wealth! He said he would watch the dedication of his country for the cause and his will to kill the Demon King!”
“··········!”
