030. In Search of the Runaway Blacksmith
“Is your name Seniel?”
“…what is that?”
“No. I was just curious.”
Berge ignored Ernap’s thin gaze.
“She is the princess of Jespine who will be staying with you on the 4th floor.”
“···Take good care of me.”
Is it really right to say goodbye?
As Kaede climbed the mountain, she felt her common sense being destroyed.
Why were you kidnapped? Why are you climbing the mountain and why is the tower hidden in the basin?
It was a series of questions. When I came to my senses, I realized that I had entered the tower.
“…Did you kidnap the hero again?”
“It’s a princess.”
The first thing I saw was the ‘Dwarf Hero’, who was looking at his hand while grinning with a magic cannon.
And now, the spirits are flying and a ‘human’ animist is welcoming her.
Is this really the Demon King’s Tower?
Is the author correct?
‘But that thrilling magic….’
His senses as a hero were shouting that it could not be explained if he was not the Demon King.
The Demon King disappeared without a word. Kaede couldn’t understand the complacency either.
Not a prison, but on the 4th floor? Of course, I’ve heard that there are demon kings who treat some princes and princesses with the utmost respect. But she wasn’t a princess worthy of that.
‘Maybe it’s a chance.’
Kaede looked inside the fourth floor. Ernya, who had been silently watching, asked.
“What are you doing?”
“I want to escape. please help me If you’re a human, you’re not in the tower because you want it, do you?”
There is no human who truly serves the Demon King. At least Kaede believed so. Because they are invaders.
“If you want to go, you can just go. No one will stop you.”
“What…?”
“Did you witness any demons or demons while climbing up? There is no force to block it. Whether I can go out and live is a different matter.”
“ah.”
Kaede understood the meaning. This was the Erzest Mountains, and Kaede lacked the skills to withstand Erzest’s cold and monsters.
Indeed, the monarch. There was sincerity in the midst of folly.
“After all, you are the Demon King…”
Kaede bit her lip.
He came to help Hillen Cargill to kill the demon king, but the situation in which he was caught by the demon king was rather devastating.
“There is nothing too bad to see. Still, the owner of this tower is quite a gentleman.”
“It doesn’t make sense to be a gentleman at the time of the kidnapping.”
“Well, you can see it that way. But I don’t specifically put the princess in a dungeon. They give me the freedom to live on the fourth floor.”
Ernya lightly waved her hand. The earth spirit, who received her will, built a wall.
“You can stay here. There is no set meal time, so if you are hungry, you can take it out of the warehouse over there and eat.”
“Yes.”
Kaede decided to obey her first. There is a saying that even if you are caught in an ogre burrow, you can survive if you are alert.
The Demon King is incomparable to the Ogre, but if you wait, there will be a gap in the end.
‘In a sense, this might be better…’
He smiled bitterly, recalling the reason he was trying to catch the Demon King after chasing Hillen.
“By the way, who is the Dwarf hero on the first floor?”
For some reason, there were other things instead of monsters in the Demon King’s Tower, which was supposed to be infested with monsters.
“I’m a dwarf warrior.”
“No, that’s…”
“I don’t know. I am a prisoner too.”
“…a prisoner of war?”
Kaede thought she was a human who turned to the demon king. I thought it was a surveillance station posted to watch yourself.
It was because I was kneading the 4th floor at will.
“Oh, didn’t I tell you my story? I will introduce you officially.”
Ernya gracefully bowed her head.
“I am the Crown Princess of Hilderan, Ernyl Hilderan. Like you···.”
I’ve been kidnapped
“·················ogue.”
Kaede sincerely doubted whether the succubus was deceiving herself after receiving a secret order from the Demon King.
* * *
“I never thought I would be here again.”
Hillen adjusted her outfit. The reflection of himself in the mirror was supremely clean.
“Are you ready?”
“I’m ready, but I’m still nervous.”
“Haha, don’t you have the most experiences like this among the warriors?”
“It’s not a good thing this time, is it?”
“How could that be the hero’s fault? Because the new demon lord is strange. Rather, thanks to the hero, I have become more aware of the new demon lord, so isn’t it a good thing?”
Well, is that really a good thing?
After all, no one would have guessed that the hero would have become the demon king’s dog. So there are a lot of people who rejoice only that they came back alive.
That was the Demon King and the picture he was drawing.
It failed, but it was not the responsibility of the hero, but the responsibility of the strange demon king and maintained the reputation. Furthermore, to become the best warrior.
“Shall we go?”
Finally, I unwrapped the crumpled parts by hand.
He walked along with his assistant assistant.
‘What does the devil mean?’
How are you going to use yourself as a warrior?
‘Are you sure you want to kill another hero?’
He didn’t look like such a simple person. It may seem a little daunting to say on its own, but Hillen Cargill knew where he was.
He was never a hand worth writing and throwing away.
‘Let’s think positively.’
Although the demon king called Berger looked different from other demon kings, the demon kings who have descended over the past hundreds of years are all different.
Nevertheless, Arain never faced a crisis of destruction, and now he rather sees the Demon King as a means of earning money.
‘The continent never collapses.’
The world is wide and there are many warriors. There are many countries If it had been a continent that would collapse if only one hero betrayed it, it would have collapsed immediately.
‘And I got 90,000 gold.’
The big demon king handed over the money as it was, and a whopping 100,000 gold is sleeping in his subspace. Even if you pay off all your debts with 10,000 gold, you have 90,000 gold left.
And most of this will go to the top of the Golden Moon as an investment as soon as Aman Katrash becomes the top successor.
A huge amount of money will give you a breather at the top of the tilting golden moon.
In addition, if Hillen Cargill decided to support it and supported it from the side, raising the top itself was not a futile sound. Such a large top will serve as a minion to the Demon King and become a strong supporter of Hillen.
It was a painting by Hillen Cargill.
Apart from the Demon King, money was not wrong. And Hillen knew how to spend the money.
Bump-
Daejeon opened the door.
“come!”
“It’s a real Hillen Cargill!”
The eyes of the reporters who were waiting turned to him all at once. Hillen enjoyed the gaze and slowly climbed up the podium.
click-
click-
The beam of light from the colorful magic camera made my eyes sting.
“Nice to meet you, everyone. This is Hillen Cargill. I’m not sure if I’m happy or sad to meet you all in this place. First of all, I will talk about the time I started climbing the mountain. I’ll answer your questions after the story is over.”
The hall was quiet.
Hillen calmly vomited out her experiences. appropriately colored.
“I was looking for a tower. He tried to save the princess somehow. But the Demon King was wicked.”
“There was no tower anywhere, and what greeted us was the chilly cold, heavy snow, and stronger monsters.”
“The crew screamed. He fell down bleeding. I wanted to save at least one more of them. I wandered in that ban for weeks to make sure their sacrifice was not in vain.”
Sometimes with a cool attitude, sometimes by appealing to emotions, he grabbed people. A single stream of tears that flowed down became the climax of the fire.
When the story finally came to an end, the reporters, who were assimilated into the atmosphere, expressed their pity for Hillen.
Hillen was the hero of the comeback, but he became the protagonist of the pity that he was struck by an evil tactic.
“Then I will ask you a question.”
That was then.
The gates of Daejeon slowly opened. People who had their heads sticked out hurriedly approached the reporters.
Suddenly, the murmur grew louder.
‘What’s going on?’
Any news?
‘Looking at his expression, he doesn’t seem light…’
A reluctant ominous pounded Hillen’s chest. And someone raised a hand.
“Yes, ask a question.”
“What do you think about the fact that the Demon King, who you failed to subdue, has newly abducted the Princess of Jespine this time? Do you have any guilt that you wouldn’t have been kidnapped if you were successful?”
“···········?”
It’s like another dog.
* * *
The abduction of Jespine’s 9th princess, Kaede Jespine, was revealed because of extremely bad luck.
The Demon King openly revealed his magic, and that power shook Horton Walk itself.
“Great Magida!”
“If you can feel the magic around here…”
“He is the newly descended Demon King of Erzest. He must have been angry with the bravery.”
There was an emergency in the city, and what the security forces arriving late found were the fallen mercenaries.
And as he judged that he had been attacked by demons, one of the mercenaries woke up while treating them.
“Princess!”
shouting
“·················ogue.”
“·················ogue.”
It was just a small incident. However, because the Demon King was involved, the Happening developed into a huge rumor.
“A Magi was found at Hortonworks.”
“The surroundings were smashed and the mercenaries were down. There must have been a battle.”
“The Demon King has appeared to kidnap someone.”
“The mercenaries were actually knights.”
“It was the princess who was kidnapped by the Demon King!”
All the anglers hit and fell. The mercenaries denied the facts and disappeared.
“The demon king kidnapped the new princess just after the heroic journey was over? As long as you don’t go crazy…”
There were those who denied the rumors. Opinions were also quite reasonable.
But the timing was not good.
Hero, Hillen Cargill’s troop of bravery failed, and it was revealed that the new demon king was different from the past.
“The new Demon King must have been crazy from the beginning!”
“You must have kidnapped the princess of the Jespine Empire!”
However, the real party, the Jespine Empire, did not respond at all.
* * *
match-
damn-
blood spurted out White teeth fell to the floor.
Nevertheless, the knight silently bowed his head.
“stop.”
The knight’s hand that had been stroking his subordinate’s cheek stopped. He knelt toward the throne and bowed his head.
“Do you know?”
he muttered in boredom. However, the knights swallowed dry saliva and laid their heads lower in the gloom behind them.
“It is said that even the dogs on the street know it. That the Princess of Jespine was kidnapped by the Demon King.”
Because of some knight’s sleeping habits.
A crackling laughter was heard.
“I wonder if I should still keep you as knights.”
“Kill me!”
“If you really want to, I’ll do it.”
“·················ogue.”
“I hate bugs that try to get things done and avoid them.”
“God will surely rescue His Majesty the Princess.”
“I’ll have to rip that snout so my ears won’t get dirty anymore.”
Ttt, he clicked his tongue.
“How can you say that Hillen Cargill, whose name is one of the ten, has failed? Words are thinking and doing.”
The knights said nothing. He just leaned on the master’s mercy and trembled.
“Actor.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“What would you like to do? The incompetence of all of you who, as bodyguards, missed the princess’ escape, the powerlessness that was taken from the demon king, the lightness of waving your snouts recklessly.”
“…if you leave it to me, I will surely bring back the Crown Princess.”
“In what way?”
“·················ogue.”
he got up He came down slowly from the throne and slapped Actor’s head.
“Didn’t I tell you to think and exhale?”
“sorry.”
“Don’t do anything sorry in the first place. Don’t test my patience.”
The emperor spoke coldly. Then he went back to the throne and closed his eyes.
“Go to the kingdom of Ormus.”
After a while, he opened his eyes.
“Go and tell the greedy old man that my bride is gone. If you are looking for Kaede, please cooperate with him as much as possible.”
“Yes.”
“And send an envoy to the Heroes’ Guild. If you pay that much money and eat it, you have to pay it.”
“Yes.”
“Let’s go. Remember, this is your last chance.”
“I take orders!”
“I will engrave it on my bones!”
The knights disappeared.
“You don’t have to go out.”
Hillen Cargill went out and couldn’t find the tower itself. There was no need to take the damage in the first place.
Watching Hilderan, who lost the Crown Princess, and Ormus, who lost his concubine, go crazy.
The fact that Kaede is a less important princess also played a part.
“It’s annoying. You should calmly go to Ormus.”
tt he clicked his tongue
* * *
Berge came out of the tower again. And I realized that the wave I had caused was getting bigger than I thought.
‘Is it also Jespine?’
I roughly guessed. However, he hates the standard due to his past experiences, but at first, Berge was also a demon king. How could you leave the princess in front of her when she’s flirting with her?
‘There is no big problem.’
The location of the tower itself was not discovered. That was a huge advantage.
‘Even if you get caught, you can use the ghost of mana if you are still driving.’
You have to risk huge magic points, but nothing is more important than buying.
‘I’ll have to leave some Magi points.’
As the rumors of kidnapping even the princess spread like this, the number of points gathered will increase.
‘By the way, it’s been a long time here.’
Huge buildings rise high in the sky. Mana flows artificially manipulated were settled all over the city.
A place where flying boats fly and various magical tools overflow.
The magic kingdom, the king of Akan, was Amur.
It wasn’t the first road. I had come here once before because I had a job to abduct the princess of Akan.
And when he tried to kidnap the princess, he kidnapped the prince.
‘…a bad memory came to mind.’
It wasn’t a real number…
I just judged her by looking at her eyes and momentum and the condition of the room. Just like avoiding shit because it’s dirty, I just avoided it.
‘It’s a silly idea.’
The past is past and will never happen in the future. There are many kingdoms and more princesses, but there was no need or desire to insist on the Akan Kingdom.
‘The best thing is the horse tower…’

Matop not only trains wizards, but also sells various reagents and magic materials.The problem was that there were enough warriors in the horse tower.
If you hide your magic as much as possible, you can deceive even the heroes of an appropriate level, but the name is the magic tower of the magic kingdom. It was impossible not to be noticed.
‘I’ll have to look around the nearby magic market.’
There are items of lower quality than the horse tower, but it would be better than nothing.
That was then.
“Are you really here?”
“Certainly. What could he do, who fled the kingdom?”
“I’m not the kind of guy who can give my habit to a dog, so I’ll grab a hammer again.”
“Yes. Surely it is. The easiest place to obtain various materials is from the Kingdom of Akan and the Traparta Union. But I think I would prefer the Akan Kingdom over the Traparta Alliance.”
“Because Traparta is right next to your home country?”
“Yes. We are working more closely than anyone else, so we would have chosen a place that was less touched by the Kingdom.”
“It seems so.”
A pretty loud voice was heard. Passers-by glanced at them, but they didn’t care.
that.
‘Oh.’
It was the second princess of the Dwarf Kingdom, Werft, Louise Werft.
