Dungeon Defense (WN)

“Uh, hey. Come with me to the Demon King...! ”

The young man was embarrassed and brought down the horse again.

At that moment, the waitress serving the food and drinks walked the young man's feet behind his back. The young man who had been ambushed for a while fell, uh, awkwardly.

“Oh, I'm sorry! I can't stop looking ahead. ”

The young man faced an incomprehensible task in a row. At that time, I was out of my mind, so I could keep up with what my opponent was doing. The waitress reaches out her hand with a look of apology, and the young man grips her hand fiercely.

As the young man stood up, the waitress let go. The young man fell from his butt, unbalanced. As the young man fell, the adventurers who were watching the situation were thrilled.

“Oh no. What should I do? I'm very weak because I'm a woman. ”

The waiter bent down and looked down at the young man's face.

“But the self-proclaimed knight aspiring. I'm cheering you on. You have to subdue the Demon King. Wouldn't I be the woman who defeated the warriors? ”

Adventurers smile around you. It was clear ridicule.

When the situation became like this, even the young man could notice. The young man's face turned pale.

“How could you be so rude...! ”

“You're the one who was rude first, kid. Listen up."

Said the waitress.

“This is not a training ground where the best knights use what they've learned. This is our place of business. A place to eat and eat. Understand? This is a shitty world, but at least you don't break other people's dishes. Basic courtesy.”

“You think of the Demon King as a tool for eating bees! ”

The young man got up from his seat. He grunts and shouts.

“Of course, it is important to get a daily diet. But there's so much more to the world than that! Subdue the Demon King who has brought mourning to the continent. This is the important mission! ”

“Hey, kid. No one cares what kind of ethics you have. Even if you die right now, there are plenty of people to tell you stories on behalf of those idiots. ”

The waitress grabbed the young man's finger.

“There's a thousand adventurers living in one place, just looking at Castle Crane. Thousands of people feed on Horse Castle alone in this city. Once you subdue the Demon King with that great sense of justice, we'll all be unemployed here. ― ― Thousands of lives, can you take responsibility? ”

“ ……. ”

He never thought of it that way.

“He laughs at the thought of carrying thousands of people on his back because he can't even protect himself. ”

A pretty waitress with pink hair snorted.

“Let's take a walk, asshole, or get out of here. As you can see, it's always crowded in here. I don't know if someone like you is standing still. ”

The young man was kicked out of the Guild Hall without doing anything.

The adventurers laughed again as they watched the young man go wild. There was little malice in them. Adventurers think that a funny guy came to them while they were just horribly bored.

Thank you for making me smile in my hard life. There were quite a few adventurers who genuinely thought so. Life was a loss to them as they got serious. How can you be serious about your life as an adventurer?

“Miss Fleur is too kind to a freshman. ”

An adventurer said, drinking barley beer at the table.

“I'm talking to you. You don't have to do that. Leave it alone! Muppets are so dark they don't know who to help them. It's meaningless, it's meaningless. ”

That's right, that's right, and I fought back and forth.

The waitress puts her arms around her waist and sighs.

“You're a great old-timer. Where does everything go if I say I want to? You can't beat your temper. This is my temper, so pay attention, Cheonchi. ”

“My lady has a bad mouth. ”

The adventurer takes a beer.

“Khh. I've always wondered. Miss Fleur, why are you being so nice to the new recruits? I mean, I'm a little grumpy, but, frankly, that sounds like an excuse. This interference doesn't suit Miss Fleur's personality. ”

“ ……. ”

The waitress mutters a little.

“I don't want anyone to die. Especially in the Democratic Castle……. ”

The adventurers nod.

It was a common story.Perhaps a precious person died in the Castle of the Demon. Parents, lovers, brothers, sisters. It was nothing special in this world. That's why the adventurers stopped digging.

Don't ask questions that others don't want to be asked.

It was one of the propositions that if you want to live on this floor a little longer, you have to keep it like a rule. The adventurer finished drinking his barley beer and thought,

‘By the way, that girl's father was a famous adventurer. ’

You said you were a red class adventurer.

Must have been a proud father. Raising a child was as great a task as saving the world for an adventurer. I heard Fleur worked for a guild in the next town even before he moved here thanks to his father's connections.

‘I've never heard of a red class adventurer who died in Dalian Castle...' ’

The adventurer raises questions, but stops thinking naturally.

‘Well, it doesn't matter. ’

The adventurer has been an adventurer for over seven years now. I knew better than anyone that it was more important not to think than to think in this neighborhood. What, and he thought, The more secrets the world and women have about the unknown, the more beautiful it is....

* * *

The boy who was kicked out of the guild was homeless on the streets that night.

I had no money.

“...... I'm glad it's not so cold. ”

The young man squeezed a gap between the building and the building. It was also because I was worried that the cold wind would harden my body, but most of all, it was to prepare me for looters. If you are homeless in this narrow alleyway, you may be able to target yourself and stand up to the thieves.

“Ha.”

I sighed on my own.

I recognize the cost of the accommodation just in case. It was too much. I couldn't even afford to spend the night renting a stable in my home, not the cost of an inn.

If I just lowered my head a little bit, I wouldn't be embarrassed, but I could sleep for free. The urban greed did not seem ambitious. However, the young man was very offended. The young man's life was still flat to be used to begging....

All that money was only a penny. This was the end of four loaves of bread.

Of course we can last a few days. But after a few days....

“No, you mustn't lose heart. ”

The young man caught my mind.

“What are you doing, Frederick Schiller! Your resolve is weak and reality is harsh. The harsh reality is like a high mountain range, so only those who conquer it can become heroes! ”

The young man stared at the night sky quoting the grandchildren he had learned in class.

It was just like the night sky I looked at with my dreams in the Academy. The young man gave meaning to this. That is, no matter where you live, whether you are born as a noble or born as a slave, whether you live as a knight or as an adventurer, you have the same path to go. That was justice.

It doesn't matter where you are. Obviously I'm being mean right now. You lean into the dirt on the side of the dirt and try to sleep. But it doesn't matter…….

The next day.

“No one with me can defeat the Demon King's Tidebringers! ”

The young man entered the Guild Hall and shouted loudly.

After one night, it seemed Lady Artemis had regained her confidence. Though the word 'dragon', 'dragon', to subdue the Demon King's Tidebringer, was marginally changed to 'dragon'.

“ ……. ”

The waitress glanced at the young man.

I didn't say anything, but my eyes became colder than yesterday. She ignores the young man and flies barley beer to the adventurers. The adventurer snorts as he takes over the beer.

“Look, I told you. He's out of his mind. ”

“I think you're just gonna have to jerk off in front of me one more time and I'll smash your dick. ”

“Hehe!”

No one, of course, listened to the curious shout of the young man. The young man had no income to return to the alleyway today.

The next day.

“Is there no one with me who can defeat the evil spirit?" ”

The young man still shouted confidently, but slightly lightly. The adventurers get used to it, so they don't even look at the young man. In fact, they were betting on how long he'd be like that.

The day after that, the day after that…….

Three days in a row.

The young man was starving.

“ ……. ”

I was hungry.

Otherwise, I was tired of traveling a long way. Starving for days in that state, it was hard to endure even as a young man who wanted to be a knight.

Luckily, it was Sunday.

People boiled soup every Monday. As the day went by, the soup became as fierce as water. Sunday is the day when soup is the most ferocious. When beggars begged for a sip of soup, I could throw them out on Monday, but on Sunday I could give them a good quarter.

“Just give me one shot of soup……. ”

The young man wandered around the villages of the six hills all day.

The reason was simple. I was afraid that if I found the shipment in one town, I would look beggary. The people mutter as if it were ridiculous and serve the soup.

“No. A young man with a healthy limb... Tsk, tsk. ”

Originally, there were occupants in these blindness countries. There were orphans living in many villages. As long as there was no such thing as an orphanage, the orphans lived as the bottom beggars, and the "grace of Sunday" was prepared for such orphans.

Apparently, he was not an orphan, but a healthy looking young man asked for soup.

The young man could no longer endure the insult.

He failed to save his companion, but entered Castle Marwan in his own way. Two Goblins attacked the young man. Animals taught by Academia as the weakest magic. However, the young man almost lost an arm after killing two Goblins.

“Huff, huff... huff. ”

Class and reality were different.

Even two Goblins are so difficult, so what if three come together? Fear strikes. Castle Marwan is no place to go alone. The young man grabbed the Goblin corpse and stormed out.

I didn't even know how to slaughter monsters, so I ran away with a corpse.

The young man left the butcher to the white man and earned a silver coin. I was cheating, but I couldn't help it because I didn't know the price. He took a loaf of bread, a loaf of cheese, and soup with a silver coin and ate.

Tears poured out to see how delicious it was.

The next day.

The young man entered the Adventurer's Guild shrine and said carefully.

“Each Goblin's head receives a silver coin. Each Goblin receives a silver coin...! ”

The voice is slightly awkward, but it melts into the chaotic atmosphere of the building.

“Anyone going to subdue the Goblins? Two silver coins per head. Butcherable.”

“So one gold coin per head is ridiculous! ”

“Hey. I found out about the Horse Towers and the Human Towers. That's it. There's no one I can trust! ”

People were looking for work as loud as ever.

The waitress laughed as she watched the young man from afar.

“Now I've learned how to speak the truth. ”

As some of you may remember, Fleur was loved by Fabian, the bald adventurer.
