069. Broken Promise
“Against resignation! Opposition to resignation! I can’t!”
The dwarf weeps
“You can’t do this to me!”
What is so unfair, they are willing to weep loudly.
But seeing a chubby dwarf like that is never beautiful.
“Shut up before you pluck out your tongue.”
“…Yes, Hib. Ha, but.”
“However?”
“If my location is found, Princess Louise will tear me in half and kill me! Are you saying that I, who is loyal and devoted to the Demon King, can disappear?”
“If you say something less than once, I will clear the clogged ear hole myself.”
“…but if they find my gear, they will light their eyes and try to find me.”
“Perhaps it is. I forgot to tell you, but you already have a wanted bounty.”
“Hey…! No way!”
“good night. Then I’ll have to kidnap the princess.”
“···Yes?”
The hand that was stroking my hair just stopped.
“What kind of princess are you talking about?”
“Who else but Louise Werft?”
“Hey, that’s really killing me!”
“If you don’t like it, give me your gear.”
“·················ogue.”
“This is the Demon King’s Tower and it is my realm. Who would dare come in and kill you unless I bring you?”
“·················ogue.”
Logger swallowed dry saliva.
It was a threat. If you don’t listen, I’ll take you and kill you.
“If you really give me the gear, won’t you kidnap Princess Louise?”
“Your mark must be on it.”
“It makes sense.”
“Do not doubt the words of the Demon King.”
“Yes, I understand.”
There is no such thing as a choice. Logger bowed his head and entered the workshop. When he came back, he had two swords and a shield in his hand.
“When did you make this?”
“I got bored of making only magic cannons, so I made this and that.”
“A golem?”
“We are researching it, but it will take some time because we use contaminated mana stones instead of regular mana stones.”
Towers convert mana into magic. It meant that making a golem out of mana stones would become useless over time.
“work hard.”
“Yes, please keep your promise. please.”
“Don’t worry. You are still useful.”
“Yeah, I’m a bit useless! Always useful! Don’t cut the goose that lays the golden eggs! That is really stupid!”
“I will not cut a goose’s belly, but I can take the head of a cheeky dwarf.”
“Sin, sorry!”
Leaving behind the screaming Logger in contemplation, Berge climbed the stairs.

“…is that what you call a horse now?”
Hillen Cargill sighed.
“I am Argan. As you may not know, the position of Argan is by no means easy.”
Because that symbolism and responsibility follow.
“It is the order of the Demon King.”
“It was also the order of the Demon King who told me to become an executive at the guild headquarters.”
『Previous orders and present orders. Do you know what is more important?”
“What is the reason? Why do I have to go to the Werft Kingdom?”
“It’s not bad for you either. The demon king of lust, the demon king of the frigid cold, and the demon king of the Geum River. One of these three will kidnap Louise Werft.”
“··········!”
“The Demon Lord doesn’t want that, but wants you to become a hero by blocking other demon lords and protecting the princess.”
Why is the royal family easily kidnapped by the Demon King?
The biggest reason is the Demon King’s hiding, but it’s because he can’t always provide thorough protection to all the royals.
It should be at least a star or equivalent enough to notice the Demon King’s hiding, but where is such a hero?
It was also ridiculous to use such a hero as a royal escort under the pretext of not knowing when and where to kidnap him.
But if you know when and where?
“…the hero who stopped the princess’ kidnapping.”
this is precious
I recognized the symbolism of Hillen Cargill.
“Isn’t it pretty tempting now?”
“So, how do you naturally go to Princess Louise’s side?”
There was no way the demon lord told him to just stick with it without any countermeasures.
“Logger is a wanted criminal in the Werft Kingdom, and Louise Werft wants to find him more than anyone else.”
“The Demon Lord has decided to give you a piece of equipment marked with a logger.”
“…with that, I will definitely be able to officially be invited to the kingdom as Argan.”
Is it simply that? If a connection with the Werft Kingdom was established using this event as an excuse, his position in the guild would also increase.
“But the justification of being an escort is not enough.”
“It’s a threat.”
“···········?”
“It was Louise Werft who killed the 2nd Prince of Ormus. You match what you heard directly from the demon who witnessed the scene in the Tower of the Beast…”
“You mean Louise Werft killed Max Ormus?”
“Did you not know?”
“I didn’t know!”
“I thought the Demon King was talking about it.”
Wasn’t it
The dark elf shrugged.
“I wish I knew now.”
“Are you saying that now?”
“Anyway, the Demon Lord’s instruction is to do whatever it takes to threaten or persuade Louise Werft as a clue.”
“Stay up somehow and stop the kidnapping.”
“·················ogue.”
Communication was unilaterally cut off. Hillen Cargill let out a sad laugh.
“These crazy bastards are real…”
The mask called courtesy was slightly broken.
But it was soon re-sutured.
“I don’t see anything bad about it…”
The problem is that you can’t just look good.
In particular, the part where the relationship with Louise Werft, who is the forbidden jade leaf of the Werft Kingdom with a 99% chance, will be the worst.
‘No, there is no need to go there.’
He had to carry out the orders of the Demon King, but he did not have the will to carry out even risking his life.
‘There is nothing more precious than my life and honor.’
What was the reason for planting foreign objects in the head in a sloppy manner? it’s life it’s honor
Threatening the Princess of Werft in the Kingdom of Werft was no less than an act of suicide.
‘If I do, I’ll just throw the traces of the logger to the princess. It’s best to come out with only good relationships.’
If you did your best, but couldn’t help it. What will the Demon King say?
I’m probably going to fuck I’ll torment him with a foreign object implanted in his head.
‘But that’s all.’
As long as there is no other ‘star’ and ‘argan’ to completely replace it.
‘You get what you get and throw away what you throw away. His life is pledged by the Demon King, but he must not be dragged too far.’
Hillen Cargill shook his head.
* * *
There are many mountains and mountain ranges on the continent.
And if I were to pick the most difficult and huge mountain range, nine out of ten would say the Werft Mountains, and the other would say the Erzest Mountains.
Werft Mountains.
The dwarves built their nests in this very rugged place.
They built a city underground by digging into the barren and hard rocks. Thus, the kingdom of dwarves, Werpt, was born.
hoo-
The largest underground city, the royal capital Bertyan.
A private palace garden of the royal palace for the royal family. The princess, Louise Werft, wielded a giant Battle X.
A powerful Auror sprinted through the air and split the sword that was running in front of him.
“Cuckoo!”
The dwarf knight vomited blood and fell.
“Now I just want to do something…”
Louise frowned.
“next!”
The waiting knights lifted the injured knight and took him to the medical room. Another knight came out with a shield and a sword with a hardened impression.
“How are you? What did I do? Are there not that many talented people in the Knights Templar?”
“There are a lot of talented people, but it’s because the princess is too good.”
Volvo, who watched Dalian, sighed.
After having an accident in the realm of the beast, the princess pondered over what had happened to Max.
‘The soldiers died because I was weak. Yeah, that’s it. If I had been stronger, I could have wiped them all out.’
It was a way of adding to her own guilt.

Mourning for the knights and soldiers who died because of their greed. Louise abused her body and sublimated it into passion.He pushed himself even harder.
Is that so? Volvov, who watched her from the side, was convinced. The Louise before she moved in and the Louise today are completely different dwarves.
Louise snapped her fingers.
“After all, you come by yourself.”
“I am the princess’s escort. The tip of my sword will never point toward the princess.”
“It’s a light match.”
“It’s a problem because the princess’s matchmaking is never easy.”
“If you don’t do it like a real game, there’s no point in doing it.”
“I agree with some of that, but at that point it is no longer Dalian.”
That was then. A knight hurriedly ran and whispered. Before Louise could say anything, a dwarf entered the garden of the detached palace.
The knights all bowed their heads in unison.
“I see you, the First Prince!”
“Raise your head.”
“Brother.”
Louise welcomed him.
“You worked hard today.”
“It’s just a light morning workout.”
“Would you like to talk for a moment?”
“Yes.”
At the glance of Louise, the knights retreated. Tables and chairs were placed in the garden, and refreshments were served.
“I have good news.”
The prince drank the hot tea at once.
“What?”
“Logger Friedree. Do you know that Your Majesty and I put a wanted bounty on him?”
“yes. no way?”
“I couldn’t find it.”
Louise’s face flushed with disappointment.
“But someone who found the clue appeared.”
“Who are you? No, what are the clues?”
widely-
The prince put a sword on it. Louise looked at the sword.
Sureung-
The blade that came out of the scabbard was supremely smooth. Anticipation and mana were mixed, and it was extremely hard. And another force mingled together.
“Dimensional interference…”
Their exclusive possessions that only the warriors can handle.
The equipment made by the craftsmen, including Logger Friedree, always had that power. The strength of the warriors is mixed with mana, even if it is very weak, to make me stronger.
“Look at the handle.”
A familiar cloud pattern was embossed on the tip of the antique handle.
“I’m sure it’s Logger’s. Where did you get it?”
“At least not in the royal warehouse or the one who bought it before he disappeared.”
Logger was not directly under the kingdom but belonged to the craftsman’s guild, but the kingdom managed him meticulously.
He knew everything he had made, but it wasn’t this sword.
The answer is one.
“Are you hiding somewhere and making a new one?”
“There is a saying that I can’t give my dog a habit.”
The prince chuckled.
“Where are you?”
“Don’t be too hasty.”
“You have to catch it. Catch him right now…!”
Louise growled. The prince patted his younger brother’s head and suppressed the runaway.
“Calm down.”
“···However.”
“It wouldn’t be too difficult to catch a logger.”
“Mark. I’ve left a mark, so it’s easy to trace back, right?”
“okay. Since I was young, I have been confined to a workshop and only work in the workshop, so this is an unavoidable limitation. But it would have been the same even if the marker had been erased. There is always a lot of interest in the warrior craftsmen who do not wear marks.”
In the end, it was just a matter of time.
“So where are you?”
“It didn’t tell me.”
“Yes? What arrogance…”
Louise frowned.
“I made a condition. I want to see you in person.”
“Are you talking about me?”
As the story progressed at this point, Louise took notice.
“Isn’t your older brother someone you can’t easily ignore?”
“It’s Hillen Cargill.”
“. . . Hillen Cargill.”
Although he was living in a separate palace, he did not cut off his connection with the outside world. Louise knew how much Hillen Cargill’s status had risen.
“You are the hero who killed the Demon King of the Beasts.”
“You can see that I took care of you.”
“It went too far.”
“···When I was young, it was really cute that I was shy while being my older brother. Of course, you are still cute and pretty.”
“Please stop.”
“Would you like to meet?”
“I will see you. I don’t know what you want, but since I’ve come this far, I’ll definitely catch the logger. I don’t want to miss even the smallest clue.”
“He asked for a solo, but I can join you if you want.”
“I’m fine on my own.”
“He is no longer an ordinary hero, but an Argan of the Heroes’ Guild.”
“I’ll be careful.”
“i get it. If you wait, he will come.”
“Yes, thank you, brother.”
The prince, who had been waving his hand, stopped.
“… maybe. If I fall in love with your cuteness and make a refurbishment…”
“Brother!”
“Okay, I’ll go.”
The prince disappeared. And maybe ten minutes have passed?
The hottest person on the current continent appeared in front of her.
“You said you wanted to see me?”
Louise decided to be as polite as possible.
He was also the person who brought the clue to find the logger, and as his brother said, he has the status of Argan of the Heroes’ Guild.
Even if that wasn’t the case, he wasn’t a person to be treated harshly as he was one of ten stars.
However.
her promise.
“Princess Louise. I heard you killed Max Ormus.”
Healan Cargill’s first words were brutally smashed.
