033. It Was Useless
10 superlative seniel powder. And two degenerated seniel powder.
After obtaining a total of 12 pieces of powder, Berge returned to the tower. Ji Park-ryeong Logger on the first floor greeted him first.
“Are you here?”
“Isn’t there anything special about it?”
“yes.”
“A magic cannon?”
“The firepower was further strengthened and reinforced. I made a few more.”
Twenty magic cannons were aiming majesticly towards the entrance.
Not bad.
But the other place was far better. He made a simple workshop in the corner of the first floor, but that was all.
No matter where you look, it’s not enough to call it the Demon King’s Tower.
“I wish the first floor could be remodeled a bit more.”
“There is a shortage of equipment. I made a simple workshop, but everything was poor…”
“Sounds like Saora.”
“…Is it possible, haha.”
‘Let’s see.’
[319092pt]
While I was out for a while, the points piled up quite a bit.
It was because of the failure of Hillen Cargill and the kidnapping of the princess.

Most of these will go towards the debtors, but you can use some.[Hell’s Forge – 50000pt
It was modeled after the general workshop of the blacksmiths of the Demon Realm. Everything that could be found in the workshop is there. It assimilates into the tower and finds an appropriate figure.]
[Remove interference (lowest level) – 10000pt
Uses magic to suppress dimensional interference by a very small amount.]
In my previous life, I had never called a blacksmith. With all the magic points they had, they were busy canceling dimensional interference or summoning monsters.
[Balok – 5000000pt]
[Hydra – 10000000pt]
‘In the past, there were quite a few balrogs.’
But now I can’t even afford it. If there was one thing I regret compared to back then, it was the overflowing monsters.
Bought five Lowest Interference Cancels.
[Part of the dimensional interference is lost.]
There was no big difference. A little bit easier to breathe.
It’s a bit of a shitty part, but in terms of interference, the effectiveness of magic is extremely low.
[Install the Forge of Hell.]
[Location – 1st floor.]
Kugugugu-
The tower began to tremble. Logger staggered in embarrassment. The earth procrastinated and summoned the workshop.
It was full of facilities and tools, including a boiling furnace, the flames of deterioration, and the glacier of the demon realm boasting extreme cold.
[The Forge of Hell automatically hides traces when someone without permission from the Demon King enters.]
Logger, who suddenly appeared after crushing the temporary workshop he had made, closed his eyes.
“…Uh, this is…”
“It will be now.”
“So even if I write this…”
“It’s not just to put up a magic cannon, but to remodel the entire first floor at your own will to see how you can more effectively destroy the heroes.”
“of course!”
mandible-
“This is the Demon World Workshop…!”
Logger let out a rough breath. Passing the Berge, he ran towards the furnace.
“This furnace is very unusual in shape.”
“There is a thing called blood fossils in the demon realm. When you inject magic into it, it heats up hotter than most lava. The furnace itself is entirely made of blood fossils. It melts metal by pouring magic energy into it, without the need to create a separate fire.”
“Not fire, but the heat of minerals. It’s special. Oh, it looks like it’s alive?”
“The core inside it is a creature called Freerose that parasitizes on glaciers. It is semi-permanent because of its unique property of eating heat and releasing cold air. Many people use it for quenching.”
“best! This is the best!”
It wasn’t just because of the new culture. The Logger, who spent most of his Dwarf life in the workshop, knew that all of his equipment was top-notch. The location of the furnace and smelter was arranged in consideration of the movement of the craftsman.
“We will do our best to renovate the first floor!”
heh heh Logger drooled.
‘…are you okay?’
It’s okay, I’ve fucked up the Braves with a fairly high-level magic cannon before, so I’m sure they’ll take care of themselves.
Berger slowly grasped Logger’s personality. The crazy guy in his field. A simple guy who is perfectly satisfied if he satisfies that desire.
Berge went up to the next floor. still empty place.
‘How should I fill this place?’
In the past, they were simply ruled by monsters. I put some traps in the middle and set it up like a maze, maybe?
‘That’s not bad either.’
The warriors who were startled by the magic cannon on the first floor will come up to the second floor with a lot of caution. But what if waiting for them is not an anomaly like the first floor but a standard appearance?
That chaos will also work quite well. It will consume a lot of mental energy while doubting that there is something.
went up to the third floor. The second floor was not enough, but thinking about the third floor was still a long way off.
Finally on the 4th floor. The first thing Berger heard was the sound of breaking the wind. The first thing he saw was the blade of a sword flying towards him.
The golden aurora flew over.
That’s a pretty decent number. If the opponent wasn’t the Demon King, and this place wasn’t the Demon King’s Tower, it might have inflicted a sharper and more severe wound.
Tseung-
Auror is smashed Kaede, who was caught by the blade, swallowed a moan.
“What are we going to do?”
“…you dirty demon lord!”
Berge threw Kaede. After she landed with a fall, she ran again. Annoyed Berge, he slapped the back of his neck and passed out.
“I told him not to do it.”
Ernya, who was watching quietly, muttered calmly.
“It’s less dry.”
“I couldn’t dry it. I didn’t think about how we would get through it together, but he asked me if I was on the side of the Demon King?”
“·················ogue.”
To be honest, that was something Berger wanted to ask.
“Be nice to each other.”
“I’m working on it.”
I threw a bag of seniel powder.
“Is it the best? ten too. What is this?”
“It is denatured Seniel powder. I got it for free.”
“Thank you. To be honest, I thought you would only buy one.”
“It was just annoying to go there many times. But if that’s the case, would I be able to make a contract with a higher spirit?”
“You should try it.”
Berge decided to dispel the doubts he had been having all along.
“Summoning higher spirits means that you have improved your skills… It’s not what I’m talking about, but this place and the animist are opposites.”

Mana is scarce in the tower. And the spirits eat pure mana.Read at noblemtl.com
Magi and spirits are almost polar opposites.“Of course it is. But it also helped. Mana is scarce, so I tried to get the best efficiency with less mana. Mana manipulation increased. The elixir you gave me was also helpful.”
and···.
Ernya swallowed the last words.
As mana heart’s mana was repeatedly depleted, there was no need to even say that the remnants of the elixir that had been sleeping in various parts of the body had become one.
He treats me well, but anyway, he’s a Demon King.
“Right.”
Berger shook his head.
“If you think you will be able to escape by summoning a higher spirit, you are mistaken.”
“I don’t.”
“If you try and get caught, everything you have enjoyed until now will be lost. Not twice.”
“No one has managed to make a contract with a higher spirit and ascend to Erzest.”
The same goes for going down.
“You take good care of this stupid bitch. If you run away, it is your responsibility.”
“…that is a bit embarrassing. I am doing better than anyone else.”
“It’s called solidarity responsibility.”
“Have you been to Pelto?”
“Not yet. I will look into it a little more and scrape it off.”
“Aha.”
“Then do your best.”
I waved my hand and went up to the 5th floor. As he passed through the empty throne and entered the lieutenant’s office, Gordon, with wide eyes wide open, was rummaging through the documents.
“What else are you doing?”
“Are you here, my lord? Please forgive me for not being able to meet you because I was busy.”
Gordon answered without turning his head.
“Work?”
“Didn’t you tell me to find a way to ruin a bastard named Jetson?”
“Yeah, it was.”
I was thinking about ordering Granada, but I remembered Gordon, who was just playing, and told him to deliver it to him.
“So how did you come up with it?”
“Not yet, but it looks like it will be out soon. No, I will definitely come.”
“You can do it slowly.”
“no!”
Gordon exclaimed.
“This Gordon, in the name of the head of the Demon Training School, I must wash away the disgrace of being useless!”
useless? I never did.
Berger frowned. I didn’t really think of it that way.
But thinking about it, it was true. Granada has a mercenary corps, and Ernán has been instrumental in stopping Hillen Cargill.
But what about Gordon? didn’t do anything nothing. If so, how much of a tacky tackle from the side? rather negative.
Of course, he hasn’t tackled any more since he blocked Hillen Cargill.
“Well, it’s been useless so far.”
“···certainly!”
“Yeah, good luck.”
“Yes!”
Berge entered his office. I sat down on a soft chair and replayed the situation so far.
“I don’t think there is any need to kidnap more princesses or princes right now…”
On the contrary, if there are too many in a short interval, a problem arises.
“Oh right. Elf.”
A plausible plan came to mind that he would purchase all the elf slaves and use them as spearheads. But the majority of the 100,000 gold was in the hands of Hillen Cargill.
Woong-
At that time, the crystal ball vibrated.
“It’s amazing. I was just about to try to contact you.”
It was Hillen Cargill.
“Are you talking about me?”
“Elf. Buy all the elves from the slave market.”
“You mean an elf? Are you going to use it like Granada?”
“If that’s the case, I’m sure I’ve contacted you just in time.”
“What’s going on?”
“Aman Katrash has returned to his hometown. He repented of his past and Gaju forgave him.”
“He became the heir to the family.”
“Oh.”
It was good news. It seemed that he had taken a big step towards conquering the continent.
“Didn’t I say nanny? Even as a reader, I would not have forgiven him easily.”
“Who am I? Even though I have failed once, the reputation I have built up is not so light.”
“And I put some money there. I firmly told him to trust Aman Katrash and invest.”
indeed.
No matter how foolish he was, he was the only son who became ill after the Auror Hall was destroyed. Compassion is inevitable, and what if the recognition and investment of a well-known warrior, Hillen Cargill, are combined?
That’s the end.
It is safe to say that there are few advantages beyond that.
“Good.”
“I will give him orders. And if there is something special, we will contact you again.”
“okay.”
Berger smiled pleasantly.
Everything went smoothly.
“It’s a little reluctant for the Heroes’ Guild to stand still, but…”
Even before their return, they were almost at the end of their movement. After destroying several kingdoms, the warriors were put in in earnest and drove him to death.
‘So that means there is still room.’
At the time, I just thought I was terrified and cringing. But there must be complicated circumstances between any human beings.
‘I’ll have to ask Hillen later.’
He also recognized the red sword warrior who killed him.
Berge buried himself in the chair even more.
* * *
The failure of subjugating the Demon King.
And failed to rescue the princess.
Of course, Hilderan, the subject of the quest, was the one who reacted most sensitively to the two news along with the Hero Guild.
At first, even when half of the warriors, including Wharton Colo, descended with heavy damage, the fire of hope did not go out.
“Wharton Colo is not even qualified to be a warrior.”
“The princess was kidnapped, but she couldn’t find the tower and ran away.”
“We still have Hillen Cargill. Aren’t Wharton Colo and others a strong warrior that can’t be compared?”
Hilderan’s ministers slashed Wharton Colo and his companions. While keeping anxieties in the corner of her heart, she earnestly prayed that Hillen Cargill would rescue the Crown Princess.
“Your Majesty, Hillen Cargill is down! A failure, a great failure!”
Even Hillen Cargill’s failure was the worst they had ever hoped for.
“Where is Hillen Cargill?”
“They say they are holding a press conference in the Principality of Asoin.”
The Principality of Asoin was one of the members of the Traparta Confederacy.
“jackanapes! If the bravery that Hilderan requested was not successful, you should immediately bow down in front of His Majesty, tell everything in detail, and ask for your sins…!”
Instead, they were furious.
“your majesty! Healan Cargill cannot be left alone! Summon him immediately and hold him accountable!”
“You must be held accountable!”
“. . . it will.”
The gaze of the king of Hilderan fell coldly.
“Ask the Principality of Asoin for cooperation right now, and send the Knights Templar to bring Hillen Cargill.”
“Your Majesty, it is customary to condone the failure of a hero. If those who risk their lives are held accountable for their failure, who will fight the Demon King for Hilderan?”
“Jim has already endured a lot!”
The king shouted. The minister, who had been offering the aphorism, bowed his head.
“The Crown Princess is the national capital of the kingdom. It is the future of the kingdom. It is not enough to immediately lead the army and push the snowy mountains away. But I persevered Because it’s customary! You can’t raise an army with the demon king as an excuse! Because he believed that a hero named Hillen Cargill would save the Crown Princess with just a little patience!”
The king growled.
“But what about the result? Is this what Jim wanted? Or is it what you wanted?”
“your majesty.”
“If you know what that child is like to me, to Hilderan, don’t tell me to wait any longer. Jim has already endured a lot. It’s just that we don’t bring the army to the North right now.”
“The Heroes’ Guild will not stand still.”
“Are you a servant of Hilderan or a spy of the Heroes’ Guild? Are those guilds more terrifying than Hilderan!”
“·················ogue.”
“What are you doing? Send the Cheonghae Knights and bring a hero right away! If you don’t follow it, you can take it by force!”
“I take orders!”
In the Kingdom of Hilderan, one of the best knights in the top five left for the Traparta Alliance.
