Are you the Devil of the Labyrinth

Yoohyun's hair collapsed in the aftermath of the impact. The tip of the skin stings, even though the lightning residue sent by the dwarf is still in the atmosphere.

Is it an illusion to hear the sound of lightning striking around? I chase the sound and turn my head, but all I can see is the dirt in my arms.

Yoohyun, who looked around with a dry look, went forward, confirming that there were large cracks and pits on the floor. I felt something moving in front of me.

Yoohyun chased after that weak move.

Dust obscures vision. In the meantime, Yoohyun's body suddenly disappears like dust. Yoohyun moved relentlessly even though he couldn't see the front.

How many steps did he take? I can feel a sharp squirming miracle as if I knew I was alive right nearby. Yoohyun stepped up.

Yoohyun smiled as he continued to feel.

Maybe he's lucky. He's alive. I don't know if Yoohyun's power was weaker than I thought, or if the dwarf was stronger, but even in the aftermath of two strikes, the dwarf is still alive.

It was very good for Yoohyun, who felt there was no answer but to kill my heart.

The battle that struck just a few days ago was Yoohyun's victory. Dwarf uses the Overed Weapon to fire a powerful spear of lightning, but it doesn't beat Yoohyun's sword.

After all, the power created by weapons did not prevail over the power created by men.

The power of the Overed Weapon has been limited from the beginning. The user only supplies magical power to release the power of the weapon. Its destructive power was always constant, with no minimum or maximum limit.

The Overed Weapon was certainly a powerful weapon.

However, the moment the user crosses the limits of the weapon, the overhead weapon is only a burden. The output of that power was determined by the weapon, not the user.

The weaker the user, the stronger the Overed Weapon.

Originally, Dwarves wouldn't be able to make the same strikes they just did.

Nevertheless, Overed Weapon made it possible.

Dwarf borrowed the power of the weapon to implement a technology that could not be implemented at all.

After all, however, the Overed Weapon was only a subspecies made after seeing the furniture. No matter how brilliant the Dwarves are, they were not able to produce the treasures called miracle weapons.

It will be impossible for them to make furniture even if they continue to develop the Overed Weapon without giving up.

The furniture was not made by a craftsman's hand. A craftsman who made dozens of pronounced swords could not make a piece of furniture. It is not the hammer of the craftsman who makes the furniture.

It was the intense ideology and will itself that produced the furniture.

No matter how hard they try, it is impossible to make furniture as long as they have the status of craftsmen and not warriors. A craftsman's willingness to produce an outstanding weapon prevented him from making a piece of furniture.

Struggle to kill someone.

Justice to protect something.

A dream of an abnormality that cannot be achieved.

The same noble ideology as the white shining faith.

Every piece of furniture contained this will.

But there were no such things on the Overed Weapon.

It contained only greed and ambition to create more powerful weapons.

After all, it was the craftsmen and wizards who made the furniture who handled the weapons.

It was a piece of furniture with transcendental will, so it can embody miracles.

Even a common weapon can be worthwhile if it contains transcendental will for a long time.

That's why so many heroes died leaving behind a piece of furniture. Heroes' strong will remains in the weapon for the rest of their lives.

Unlike furniture that takes decades and hundreds of years, it is unlikely that an over-the-top weapon made in a short time will be able to realize the power of furniture.

The output of the Overed Weapon, which Dwarf had, did not exceed Yoohyun's blackness, and was finally pushed away from the power struggle and swept away by the blackness with the power of the weapon.

It must be a miracle to be alive despite being swept away by an overwhelming magical explosion.

“Alive?”

Yoohyun, who had reached the end of his career, asked in a bold voice.

“...... Coloc. ”

Then the painful little cough that seemed to be vomiting blood returned to the answer.

Anyway, it seems to be alive. Yoohyun bends his legs as he feels the dust sinking slowly.

As the dust subsides, there is a bloody dwarf in front of Yoohyun's eyes.

The ferocious strength that I showed at first was nothing but a dwarf.

And next to him was an over-the-top weapon rolling around the floor.

I have a denture, and I hear strange noises on an over-the-top Weapon. The Overed Weapon was not just a cold weapon. It was a weapon close to an artifact of some kind with a complex mechanical structure.

Eventually, in the aftermath of what had just happened, the Overed Weapon began to break, making strange noises about whether its durability had reached its limits. The dwarf widens his eyes as he looks at it.

“Th-that's h-ridiculous! ”

“Fortunately, I have the strength to make a sound. ”

Dwarf's arms are trembling as he reaches over the Weapon with his frail body. It seemed quite shocking that the Overed Weapon was smashed.

The dwarf, looking at his crushed weapon, slowly turns his head and stares at Yoohyun.

The eyes of the dwarf, filled with fear and despair, stare at Yoohyun. I've never seen a gray pupil as strong as steel before. All I could see was fear of the strong.

Yoohyun asks, confirming the appearance of a Dwarf whose will seems to be rooted out.

“Why is black steel so interested in this? Answer the question and I'll save your life. ”

“... to save your life? Me? Aren't you the servant of the Black Hand...? ”

I keep my eyes open as if I were suspicious. But there is no power in the eyes.

Yoohyun laughs at Dwarves who can't even see them properly.

“Do I look like a servant of the Black Hand? Then I guess my eyes are wrong. ”

“Cock...”

The dwarf vomits blood. Red blood contains Dwarf's vitality. The blood that is vomiting now is nothing like Dwarf's life itself.

The red color that seems to be blowing up after burning life fills the field of view. However, Yoohyun, who soon lost interest, turned his head.

“And in the first place, there's no way the Black Hand is going to be in this room. Where he is, it's deep inside. Are you sure you don't know about the Black Steel? ”

“.. then why do you know the mark? The things that were engraved on Goblin's forehead were never a coincidence. What was that supposed to mean...? That mark is the mark that the Black Hand carved to mock us...! ”

Dwarves say, empowering your eyes. At that moment, he was staring at Yoohyun unshakeably with both eyes, as if anger preceded fear. Yoohyun shrugged.

“Let's just say it was all about bringing you in. ”

“..........! ”

In Yoohyun's words, the color disappears in Dwarf's eyes.

Even the little will that remained became a soulless face like a doll that seemed to have disappeared.

No anger, no fear, no regrets, all vanished and the contents were like empty dolls.

Then the dwarf, who was squeezing his lips like he was thinking about something, slowly pulls his head.

“... is the proposal just made still valid? ”

“Of course. If you give me the right answer, I'll leave. ”

Yoohyun laughed. He was happier than any villain. Dwarf trembles at Yoohyun's laughter. It is not man who is in front of you. Every evil, not human.

Kirk. Demons live on the third floor.

It wasn't a lie the Goblins were floating around in the guild. But the demon was not a monster.

Yoohyun immediately starts asking questions as the dwarf turns delicately.

“The first one. What brings you here? ”

“..... to hunt the Iron Horn. ”

Yoohyun frowned on his eyebrows.

“A Black Steel Dwarf is coming all the way here to hunt down Iron Horn? That's funny.”

“...........! ”

The dwarf trembles as he glances at you with an unbelievable face. The look on his eyes that he suspected of lying was sharper than a blade, as if he were going to kill him right away. The dwarf shouts.

“It's not a lie! The real reason I'm here is to hunt the Iron Horn! ”

“Why are you hunting Iron Horns? How many are you going to hunt? ”

“... at first our king had commissioned us. They say there's a war going on nearby. I don't know which side of the quest you made, but I said I needed a lot of strong bows. ”

The horn of Iron Horn is a good ingredient for making bows. Yoohyun was well aware of that. I've seen many adventurers carry bows made of horns of Iron Horn.

Yoohyun didn't feel a lie in Dwarf's words. Probably true. It was quite an interesting story. But in a way, it wasn't a very relevant story in this maze.

How does war on the ground affect the maze?

Their blood and corpses will rot on the ground and not come down to the maze.

Yoohyun repeated the word war in his mouth several times and nodded silently.

“I would have needed a huge amount of horns if the army was armed. ”

“Yes. We've already had a lot fewer Iron Horn subjects on our side, and it's been a long time since we've noticed that. That's why we couldn't gather enough materials to fulfill the Crafting Quest. ”

It was a trade between countries, so trust was quite important. It would not be an individual, nor would it be possible to break the trade between nations. This is Dwarf's face.

“How many other Black Steel Dwarves have you come to? ”

This time I was a little hesitant to answer and blurred my expression. But the dwarf was forced to answer. He had a desire to live. You can't die in a place like this.

“....... 5 people. ”

“So where are the other five? ”

“They're after Iron Horn. I'm sure most of the tracking is over. ”

Indeed, Yoohyun nodded. I don't know why, but the other Dwarves seem to be moving apart. I knew the situation was not good because I thought so.

I now know the firmness of the will that the dwarves need the Iron Horn.

They won't give up catching the Iron Horn for honor.

I was wondering if I could save the dwarf in front of my eyes.

But they will wander around Lorelai to catch the Iron Horn.

Yoohyun's face sank cold as his thoughts continued there.
