Purgatory Workshop.
A workshop that has been passed down as a legend among dwarves. The hot flames of hell are feared by the wicked. For Dwarves, it is rather the best flame that can reforge any metal.
It wasn’t for nothing that the dwarves were called madmen. The workshop in Purgatory was like a textbook that told everything about how the ancient Dwarves thought of Hell.
Having dealt with all the iron men at the entrance, Hans opened the door with the members of the Dwarven Principality and went inside. Beyond the tightly closed vault-like door, there were numerous decorations and patterns.
The splendor was like looking at a palace. Considering that recent dwarves don’t value aesthetics very much, except for weapons. This is a very good workshop.
However, if there was a clear difference from other workshops. It was an underground space that could be seen far below. There are dozens of floors below, and it deserves the name Purgatory.
“I think there’s something down there.”
“You’d better go down first.”
“Now that I’ve come this far, I can’t take it out.”
At the edge of the subterranean space was a spiral staircase made of steel that led down. Hans was the first to climb the stairs. And everyone followed after him.
“What kind of person is Sir Hans?”
Beryl, who was escorted by the jeweled star, spoke to Ruby right next to her. Although Ruby wanted to walk with the leader. Hans ordered Ruby to escort her.
Because he was also the first friend I made in the Dwarf Principality. Ruby was carrying out that order without complaint. Ruby, who was walking in front of Beryl, heard Beryl’s words, thought for a moment, and then spoke.
“You mean you didn’t mean anything else?”
“Yes? Other intentions?”
“It’s okay if you don’t know.”
I wondered if he had other feelings. Judging from Beryl tilting her head, it seems that this is not really the case. Ruby was relieved. He didn’t want to add any more rivals.
“The captain is a very strong person. In many ways.”
“In many ways? You mean strong-minded?”
“Well, of course. It’s like looking at very well polished iron.”
“It’s refined iron… That a dwarf would say such a thing…”
Dwarves are technicians. That’s why he’s stingy with praise. Although there were parts of him that he thought were unfamiliar. Above all, the eccentricity of not being satisfied with anything because he had high eyesight was the biggest.
Especially comparing it to iron was the best praise for a dwarf. But that’s why it was very rare to hear such praise from a dwarf. The hero level that saved the Dwarf Principality?
That should be enough to hear praise. I never thought it would come out so easily. Even Prime Minister Bilal likened the leader to a heavy iron. And just now, Beryl confirmed the truth.
A force that can instantly deal with all the iron men who are struggling, even the stars of jewels. On such a subject, a noble knight who is not arrogant and has the weight and consideration to keep his place.
‘Does that mean that the Royal Knights can be rebuilt?’
A man with a wide bowl. On top of that, he has the power to the point of being considered dangerous if turned into an enemy. How the hell did such a person suddenly appear? Beryl stuck out his tongue.
This was also proof that Hans’ image work was working quite well. Of course, it’s not that there aren’t people who doubt Hans. To deny it, Hans’ achievements were staggering.
Who can deny that? Before long, they reached the basement. When I arrived underground, the figure of a giant iron man caught my eye. If the iron man seen at the entrance is similar to a human.
From noble mtl dot com
The iron man in front of me was like a giant. Its size reached about 10 m. It was a size that could easily overwhelm most structures. Hans stuck out his tongue.
“Is that a steel giant?”
It was definitely the size of a giant. If that thing goes wild here. It will be very difficult to subdue. However, there is only one thing to do in this situation, isn’t it?
“Get ready.”
“Yes?”
“Perhaps he will attack us.”
“What is that…”
[Check two jewels out of four jewels. King of Iron Man, Ki-dong.]
It was like scratching an iron plate with iron. Everyone in the room got goosebumps at the sound of that voice. The King of Iron moved with a giggling sound. The rusty joints worked better than expected.
Hans knew that in advance. Why? It was because Hans had played many games of this kind. Just by looking at it, I knew they would attack me like a test or something.
But the other members and the dwarves didn’t think so. Of course, I thought there would be trials. I was relieved that the ordeal was all the iron men who appeared at the entrance.
“Captain Hans! You know something about that?!”
That’s why I couldn’t help but feel strange at Hans’s reaction as if it were so obvious. As if Hans knew something about the Iron King. Because it felt like that.
“That’s not important right now. Subduing that thing comes first.”
But Hans refused to answer Beryl’s words. Beryl agreed with that. It was not wrong. Right now, his top priority was to subdue the iron king in front of him.
The king of iron moved with the sound of scraping iron. The iron king’s fist hit the ground. Kwaaang!! There was a sound like a heavy sledgehammer breaking the floor. Hans exclaimed.
“Everybody, focus! If you hit that right, you’ll die!!”
Hans’ shouts were all over, and he awakened the minds of the people who were unsuspecting. The first to move was Bayard. Bayard charged right away, baring ferocious fangs.
“A piece of scrap metal that looks like garbage!!! I will completely destroy it!!!”
Her madness awoke once more. No, I can’t describe it as madness. Maybe that’s because she doesn’t know what she really is. Bayard leaped towards the Iron King’s face in an instant.
Bayard’s pure body specs are comparable to Yuren’s. Of course, the story was based on the assumption that Yuren was a humanoid. It wasn’t difficult for Bayard anyway.
In an instant, Bayard approached her face and swung her fist, striking the Iron King’s face. Bang! The iron king’s body was pushed back with a shock as if she had been hit with a hammer. Hans shouted.
“Watch out next time!! The attack is coming again!!”
“I know! Captain!!!”
Bayard felt instinctively. She just realized that the Iron King didn’t die in that attack. At the same time, a cool sensation was felt. So Bayard immediately raised her arm like a solid shield.
Her strong bayyard arms barely blocked her iron king’s fist. However, the impact sent Bayard flying and crashing into her wall. A crack broke out in the steel wall with a crackling sound.
In order to cover such a Bayard. This time, Ruby moved first. Roaring! A burning flame heated the hammer in Ruby’s hand. Just then, the Iron King reacted.
[Warning! Discover the ancestral spark! Set as the highest risk target!]
“Ancestor’s Flame? What is it?”
“That’s…!!!”
The iron ball attached to the iron man’s right arm went inside with a bizarre noise of clicking. Instead, something appeared. No matter how you looked at it, the cylindrical shape could only be seen as a cannon.
My God.
You even made a cannon?
Eight! Are the ancient dwarves monsters?!
But there was no time to hesitate. Hans crossed his middle and index fingers as if they were used to it. The thing that comes out of an unusual action stops time. Soon everything around turned gray.
At first, I tried to get Ruby out of her place. But on second thought, isn’t this an opportunity? Hans crossed his arms and pondered. Let’s use that cannon to self-destruct.
But what kind of method is the best? After much thought, Hans turned his eyes to the new sword at his waist. It worked quite well against the Mud Guardians before.
This time too, using a divine sword would be the most effective. However, the problem was how to embed the new sword there. After much thought, Hans finally gave an answer. Let’s throw it well somehow.
Fortunately, the Iron Man’s cannon was aiming downward, not upward. Also, Bay Yard’s punches had him on one knee. I felt like I could throw it in somehow.
Hans held the sword in reverse and slowly raised it. Inside the cannon was a sphere that looked like a shell. Hans threw the sword with all his might. Fortunately, the new sword was so sharp that it was easy to succeed.
“Okay, that’s enough.”
And then, time moves again. Of course, the Iron King didn’t catch Hans’ work. Thanks to that, he immediately fired the cannon. Kwaaang!! A huge explosion occurred shortly thereafter.
How strong the explosion was. The aftermath shattered not only the arm with the cannon, but also the torso and head inside it. Just then when everyone was shocked by the sudden situation.
The only one who moved was Hans. Hans slowly walked forward and picked up the new sword that had fallen among the rubble. From Hans’ point of view, it was just an attempt to retrieve his sword.
In the eyes of others, it was only seen as casually smashing the iron king and leisurely looking around. Beryl, in particular, was finally able to be convinced. That’s Sir Hans.
The captain of the Royal Knights.
Boasts of overwhelming force.
An entity that should never be turned into an enemy.
