It's only been two days, but I feel like I'm back after a long time.
"How'd your trip go?"
asked May, welcoming Jae-ho, who returned to Korea, to finish the meal.
"A lot of planning and other things happened, but it wasn't bad."
The result wasn't bad in itself, but I'm mentally exhausted.
But I had to leave again soon.
Jae-ho walked through the flower-filled garden for a while and took Dwerf, who was determined to kill his gambler's son-in-law, and set off for the Embay Forest.
"Hmm... ...this forest has a very strange atmosphere.”
Entering the Embay Forest, Dreliere showed interest in the unusual forest atmosphere.
"As I told you, this place is actually inhabited by demons. You'd better be prepared.”
I've already explained everything on the way here.
"You're so peculiar. How did man achieve the coexistence of the Elves and the Devil?….”
“…….”
Jae-ho wondered if the condition could be called coexistence.
The Elf's role in the Embay Forest was to purify the forest and monitor the demons.
"Here you go."
"Hooh......."
When he arrived at the village, Drelier looked everywhere with a curious face.
It's said to have been much purged, but the place of demons was still fascinating to the eyes of ordinary people.
"Hmm? Mr. Alsia? What brings you here?”
Then came a demon who recognized Jae-ho.
"Oh, are you a new Dwerf slave?”
The devil's question of seeing Drelie.
"Hmm?"
"Hmmm- Slave. Don't say such a misunderstanding."
Jae-ho quickly stopped Dreliere's question.
No matter how much he came to suppress the bulka, the radical expression of slavery might have caused antipathy.
"But if you're not a slave, why are you stuck underground with a giant...….”
"I can't believe you let her go! That's not....”
"Wait!"
Drelie who stopped Jae-ho by shouting.
'Oh, my God.'
No matter how much you hate them, can't you watch them suffer?
"A giant?"
"Huh?"
But the story from his mouth was something else.
"Is there a giant living here?"
"Uh...... didn't you tell me?”
"I thought you were lying!"
“…….”
Jae-ho nodded inwardly.
I thought it didn't make sense even to myself.
Dwerf + Devil + Elf + Giant
I don't know the compatibility between each other, but it wasn't a union that would at least be in one place.
"A giant..."Come to think of it, I heard it from adults. In the distant past, the Dwerp and the Giant coexisted."
Jae-ho had already heard the story through a natural person.
"Where are you? I can't wait to meet you!"
Dreliere was a little excited to hear that there was really a giant.
The legendary giant of Dwerf's friend.
I had heard that a blacksmith was a great help to work.
But he doesn't know how to help.
'We may be able to carry on the broken history of the Dwerf and the Giant!’
The scene he faced when he came down to the mine with such expectations.
"Oh, what are you doing? Give me the right strength!"
-Crrrr....... I think I overeating....... it's too hard to come out...….
"So I told you not to be picky! Of course it's clogged with only iron ore!"
-Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...!!!
Pudddeuk-
A natural person who crouched down and poured out large, hard(?)on a blocked iron plate.
And Bulka picked up a shovel and began digging it up.
"Well! You're worth as much as you eat!"
As if contented, Bulka moves the lumps to one side...….
"Hmm?"
Only then did Jae-ho stand at the entrance to the bathroom and the Vulka find Drelier.
"Huh?!!! Now, father-in-law!!!"
"Hey, what the...….”
Dreliere was speechless at the shocking sight she had never seen before.
I'm shocked to see a giant poop live, and I can't believe he's going through it.…!
“…….”
Of course, Jaeho wasn't much different.
Because I suddenly realized why this game is 19 years old.
* * *
Fortunately, it wasn't that hard to get Drelier to understand this shocking sight.
Thinking only of Vulka's perverted taste, he nodded when he saw a high purity iron ore from a natural man's dung hole.
"It used to be like this."
At Jae-ho's words, Drelier nodded with a dark complexion.
"I've heard this story before......... I thought it was just a practical joke then."
Still, the shock seemed to remain.
"Hmmm... ...I... My father-in-law..."
a sneak-on-talkie
"How have you been?"
"......what? How have you been?! Is that sound coming out of your mouth now?!
"Huck?!!"
Drelieur's sudden rash.
"You bastard! Are you saying that even though you know everyone's in pain because of you?!
"Come on, father-in-law! I'm awake now! Look! You're the one who goes through the giant's shit to work again as a craftsman?!”
"Believe it!"
"Gee, it's real!!!”
"Then where's Moreu?!!"
"I hid it so I wouldn't lose it again!"
Adamantium anvil, nowhere to be seen in the work space.
The Vulka shouted out loud, but...….
'This man... ...no, Dwerf...….’
Jae-ho clearly saw the bulka's eyes tremble violently.
[The opponent is lying.]
And an eye patch.
"Get it right away! I'll check it with my own eyes!"
"Would you wait a moment?"
And then a bulka trying to sneak out.
And Drelieux followed suit.
"Oh, my God! Don't let an old man keep going up and down the slope! Take a rest here!"
Can you say, "Hmm, shall we do that?!!" Move it now!”
“……!”
The eyes of the Vulka began to fluctuate more and more, and it was clearly visible to the eyes of the natural person.
"쯧....... ...everybody wait here. I'll get it."
Jae-ho replaced Jae-ho at the pitiful appearance.
"Uh, huh? Knowing where you are?"
a bewildered bulka
"You told me before. I keep it hidden."
“?!!”
[Bulka's favorability increases.]
"He, he was. Then I ask you."
With Jae-ho's help, he nodded with a stiff look.
* * *
Naturally, what you said to Bulka was a lie.
Jae-ho didn't know where Moru was.
But I could tell by feeling.
He came up to the ground and found the demons.
"Give it to me."
"Yes..."? What?"
"Bulka Moru, picked by gambling."
“?!!”
"Well, we got it, but...….”
The demons' words were true.
The money I spent on gambling was nothing but a bluffeur.
However, Jae-ho was not the one to argue with.
"Will you just give it out? Or should I call the Elves?"
"Dad, I'll give you...….”
Jae-ho who came back down after getting the anvil back.
“……?”
Then he faced a strange sight again.
"Kuck! Kuckkuckkuck!"
A bulka with its arms and legs tied up and covered with steel pitches on its head.
But on both sides of the pitch were upside down like the horns of a buffalo.
Two pipes sticking out of the end of the horn were stuck in the mouth of the bulka, and the liquid in the horn was flowing into it.
"Hmm? Are you here?"
The Drelie that had her arms folded in front of her.
"Oh! You came for Moreu!”
He was delighted to see the anvil in Jae-ho's hand.
" "... ...how hard it must have been in this pathetic hand...….”
He accepted the anvil and stroked it carefully as if he had met his grandson.
"What's that doing?”
Jae-ho asked, pointing to the bulka.
"Hoo-hoo, didn't you say? We need to get some tools for him."
"Is that it?”
At first glance, it looks like a beer hat you could see at a baseball stadium.
" Inside that horn is a total of five liters of 'punishment liquor.' He's drinking it nonstop.”
"What's a punishment drink?"
I knew what it meant by name, but...... asked Jae-ho to be sure.
"A liquor soaked in 25 kinds of poison after hanging the gallbladder of a red moth and a beetle in a furnace. As soon as it goes into your mouth, it feels like it's burning, and when it goes into your throat, it goes without saying."
“…….”
Jaeho tasted the liquid inside the big horn.
"Cough?!!"
[Damaged by poison!]
[Drunk response rate is reduced.]
He lost almost one-tenth of his physical strength and felt a little heavier.
The harsh effects of just tasting it!
"Hey, isn't this gonna kill you?"
At Jae-ho's question, Drelier shook his head.
"If you're a true Dwarf, you won't die to this extent. And at the same time, it's an opportunity."
Drelier said, sitting chin-up on the anvil.
"If he gets through this, we Lactadium's Dwarfs will take him back. But if you can't hold on...... I'll never see you again."
No, you're testing your will with a booze?’
But Jae-ho didn't come forward anymore.
If this is their tradition, an outsider should not have interfered.
Furthermore, the bulky face of Vulka seemed to be ready for such a situation.
'It's impossible to put such a pitch on the ground if the parties don't agree in the first place.'
Jae-ho expected.
Maybe the Bulka who overcame this ordeal of his own will be reborn.….
Not the luckiest blacksmith, but the real blacksmith!
* * *
Expectations have become a reality.
[Bulka, the master gambler at the Elisia Garden, was born again after overcoming the ordeal!]
[The title of the Bulka has been changed from to .]
"Huck?!!"
The alert that came to Jae-ho while he was looking at the luminous emulsification in the mine!
Jae-ho rushed to the bathroom.
flop-
Still wearing a helmet, a collapsed bulka on the floor.
And Drelie, who turned coldly.
"Hmph, you're stubborn as a dwarf.”
"What? You're not dead, are you?"
"Dead! You'll wake up when you get a nap."
There was a faint smile hanging around Drelie's mouth, though he answered curtly.
He was satisfied with Bulka, who passed the ordeal internally.
"I'd rather talk to you.”
"Hmm?"
Dreliere took Jae-ho out with him.
"Hmmm... ...I looked around here for a while...... not as good as Lactadium, but I think it's a pretty good environment.”
"Yes, because this mine was Dwerf's mine in the first place."
"So, speaking of which...... why don't we work with Lactatium? What do you think?"
[*Quest*]
Lactadium is the best blacksmith on the continent.
Lactadium is so proud that it has never cooperated with anyone.
However, Drelier felt special in this place where the hands of his ancestors remained.
In addition, the purity-high mineral that can be obtained from a giant is the best material for a craftsman.
Dreliere is thinking of setting up the first Lactadium branch himself.
[Compensation: Changed to .]
The best reward Jae-ho has no reason to refuse!
"Good."
"Hoo-hoo, I like it.”
So the two shook hands.
However, Jae-ho belatedly realized that there was a problem.
"... ...what do we do with the fire?"
Jaeho, originally intended to grow lava here.
However, if the blacksmith's barn was built in earnest, it was impossible to grow it
The lava will cool down like the night at Lactadium.
-Why don't you just take it to any volcano?
Jae-ho shook his head at the old man's words.
"It's too inaccessible to be further away than the Embay Forest."
In fact, it wasn't a very efficient street either.
It was better to visit places often.
"And on second thought......this is polluted land. There might be a problem with lava.”
-How's the desert?
Jing Jingyi's suggestion.
"The desert?"
-Not as much as desert lava, but the middle of the desert is hot, too.
"The desert..."
I thought Jae-ho might be pretty good.
"This is so... ....”
There was a smile on Jae-ho's lips.
"It's an air conditioner, isn't it?”
