Duke, Please Repent! chapter 264

49. Duke and Dwarf Artisan (5)

- Bang!

Suddenly, Creato clenched both fists and slammed the workbench.

When I heard the sound, it seemed like it had been struck quite hard, but the workbench only vibrated a little, and there was no shaking.

This is the workbench used by the dwarves.

Also, it must be a dwarf. For that reason, the durability was excellent.

Still, the fact that hitting the workbench on which the sword is mounted is a dangerous action remains the same.

I secretly retrieved my sword and alerted Serpens and Winston to put them away.

It's not that important now!

Creato said, 'That kind of problem isn't the sword on the workbench, it's the conversation between me and Serpence.

I can't find out why he's angry

was able to notice that

First, show me the sacred stone! Then let me chatter while I appreciate the sacred stone.

As I expected.

I heard that a dwarf who is obsessed with beauty has a divine stone, but it is only natural that he is anxious to see him.

For example, as soon as I go to work, I tell Serpens, 'Today, sprinkle sweet sugar powder on fluffy soufflé pancakes, then pour sweet acacia honey and serve with soft whipped cream.

will be Oh, of course not now.'

It should be expected at first].

Looking forward to the pancakes coming into my mouth quickly, I'll just glance at the clock all day.

At first, the expectation was fun, but gradually the desire to eat pancakes took over the guy's head. When things get to the point where things get out of hand, then I get angry.

It's not something you can eat right away, so why do you talk so early and make people wait?

After that, it is a natural order to make a fuss to eat pancakes right now.

I just thought I'd give it a go... . I didn't know you'd want to eat so much!'

It burst right before lunch, so I had a hard time trying to appease it with a little chocolate.

I reflected deeply in my heart and brushed away thoughts of the past.

hurry !

Creato said earnestly, and held out a palm toward Serpens.

Although sacred stones were rare, the number of Dwarves was large enough to form a nation.

Even if only the dwarves were able to craft sacred stones, the opportunity could not come to all dwarves equally.

So, Creato's fussing like that can't be helped.

Although I found the wrong number.

Why don't you show me...?

Shin Sung-seok does not exist for me.

"Isn't that what you made?"

I made it, but Zion's

Isn't it natural for you to be in Zion?"

Ah, ah! You mean the second-class friend in the family?

He was preoccupied with the story of Shin Sung-seok, and he seemed to have stopped listening to other stories.

Creato turned and looked at me with her arms outstretched. Naturally, his hard palms with calluses came in front of me.

The dazzling eyes are so burdensome.

Take out the holy stone from the subspace pocket

I put it on A Creato's palm, and he exclaimed, Oh!

"If I had known this would happen, I would have been painting rather than sculpting as a hobby!"

His words implied that the sacred stone made by Serpence was beautiful enough to leave it as it is now, even as a painting.

"Ah no. It's impossible to put this dazzling brilliance on paper! No other paint in the world can embody this clear and colorful light! select left

You will definitely enjoy the temple!!

Creato, who was holding the sacred stone, let out a sigh.

His body trembled from how thrilled he was. In the meantime, the hand holding the sacred stone was fixed in the air without even moving, and it looked strange like a character with a bug in the game.

'Is that possible? I'm dead and I can't seem to wake up? Is the dwarf body structure different?'

I do not know. Anyway, I know very well that the sacred stone is enshrined in a very sacred way.

Uh, um... I understand Serpence's intentions. But if it's just to block enemy attacks, isn't a shield better than a sword?

Yes? There's no way Shion can block the enemy's attack, right?

Serpence kept making an innocent face and pounding me with facts.

I didn't usually He says a lot of questionable words about whether acting today has any meaning.

'I hope... . I'm flirting with Creato, don't take sides

You're not upset because you gave it to me, right?'

Without hiding any doubts, I looked into the boy's eyes.

Serpens tilted his head as he acted that he didn't know why I was looking at him like this.

Huh...!

I looked up to see what was going on with the sudden breathing noise, and Creato was clutching my heart with her left hand.

If there was one peculiarity, the right hand holding the sacred stone was held high. And judging by the fact that it was facing Serpence... .

'I thought you were in love with Shin Seong-seok, but were you watching it with Serpens's face?'

When you add good things to good things, something better comes out.

The same goes for beautiful things.

Even if not, I am enjoying the dazzling beauty through synergy, but Serpens made a pure expression and even frowned.

At the end of the day, the best craftsman who will make our weapons almost died of a heart attack.

calming a beating heart

For that reason, Serpens looked down at the back of Creato, who had bowed his head for a moment, with a cold expression.

The founder of the emerging Eugenes faction, Yujisu Wilydia, looked at Serpens's expression and smiled with satisfaction.

Today, she obtained something more valuable than a weapon.

'Winston... .'

I thought it would be a lot of surprise, but it's an unexpectedly dull face.

Are you okay? Anywhere you feel uncomfortable? Unless you are too meddling.

May I use my divine power?

Just in time for Creato to raise his head, Serpens showed a performance of concern.

No matter how many times he sees this change in his expression, admiration comes out.

Excessive meddling! It's not like that, yes. But... can you make me feel this afterglow a little more?

Serpens managed to keep his expression on his face and succeeded in turning his head.

"There seems to have been some misunderstanding.

The words were not intended to demean you.

When our eyes met, he calmly opened his mouth as if he had never seen Creato's breathing difficulties.

It's not a good habit to keep pretending that there are no situations you don't like. But it was just hard for me to accept.

Admit good ignorance.

"Then what did you mean?"

If anyone here swings a weapon at you, you can't stop it.

Will there be?"

It wasn't rain. Serpens made a confirmed kill.

I see. It wasn't meant to belittle me, it was meant to crush me mentally.

It doesn't mean that, either, so please stop making that expression.

What am I?

"Whoa I just wanted to say that Shion is a normal person. You are not born with great muscle strength, and you don't even have the ability to strengthen your muscles.

If you block the enemy's attack with your shield, you crush the whole shield... . No, uh... .

Having already said everything he had to say, and pretending to be careful.

It means that if I lifted the shield, I would just be hit by the shield and die. From what I've heard, it makes sense.

This was also a pack width, so it was used to make me understand.

Since I was an adult who could accept bitterness, I erased the dissatisfaction from my face.

"But if you put a sacred stone into a tool, does that power only extend to the tool?

peel? Something like a holy barrier that protects the territory?"

If it's an attack you can't stop, I think the Holy Stone will protect you...

But, what?

It's a matter of efficiency.

"Efficiency?"

Serpens nodded at my question.

"The holy stone used in the territory only 'maintains the existing holy barrier.' Maintaining the barrier and opening a new one depends on the amount of holy power consumed.

Pick up. To reduce that waste, it takes the form of a tool, but what use is it if the person who uses the tool lacks the ability to defend it only with the power of the Holy Stone?"

Is this the pity of the powerless?

I didn't do anything wrong, but somehow I was getting scolded. This is all Luxmea's fault.

'Hey, I'll put you in the body of some competent person!'

I didn't even prepare a plausible body for calling people from another world.

you.

From the basic attitude of calling guests, I was terrified.

If you just hold out while the barrier is unfolding...

You have to withstand external shocks, so your holy power will be consumed quickly.

This means that as soon as the divine power drops, you will be attacked by the enemy.

The end of the shield route seems to be only the death ending.

Then what's different when I pick up a sword? It's not like I'm getting stronger just by holding a sword, so in the end, it'll be the same to defend with the power of the Holy Stone?

Can you do a black bell?

"Are you going to cut someone like that?!"

flying magic.

Ah.

It seems that the saying that it can respond to auras and magic meant that.

"Above all, have you never held a shield before?"

Can't we just stop it?

No. It pushes and bounces attacks in time, sometimes it uses the shield side to let it flow, sometimes it attacks using the edge, etc. A shield is a tool that requires quite a bit of skill.

In addition, everything was possible with the support of muscular strength except for the attraction.

I don't know if it's used as a secondary weapon, but it's not suitable for me to use as a main weapon. It is also said to be a skillful sword or to use it diligently.

Also, there is an advantage when you hold a sword. Anyway, the sword attack

It is a tool for The opponent can also take damage, so it will show a movement to contain it moderately, and if you aim for that gap, there is a possibility of escaping... I don't know. It will definitely help you pass the time.

If you say that there is such a possibility, even with just words, it seems like it will go away.

Now that we've learned to dodge the enemy's attacks, let's focus on capturing attacks from now on.

I was speaking in a solicitation type, but I am well aware that my opinions are not reflected. In the meantime, I started training by asking for my opinion, but now

will be forced to roll.

In fact, the training so far was only an experience period.

It was a free trial that started lightly, but when I woke up, I was registered as a lifetime member.

"Once you get used to it to a certain extent, you will learn to distinguish between an attack that should be avoided and an attack that should flow."

It would be a separate training practice. There's no way it's going to end with just nine.

If possible, it would be good to learn simple attacks as well.

that you want to teach me.

Serpence was burning with enthusiasm for education. Was it that shocking to hear that Winston was playing?

After that, there was nowhere to escape. With a feeling of giving up, he slowly raised his hand.

Yes, ask a question.

How can I use the power of the Holy Stone?

The ARMY will automatically appear.

It's good news while listening.

Reminds me of Humanus being swung by the Holy Sword, so I'm feeling the same way

I was worried it wasn't.

'You just need to swing it and you'll figure it out!'

As convenient as driving an automatic car.

Of course, the fault is that I have to do the driving itself. It would have been better if it was as convenient as a self-driving car.

If I look like Serpence, he'll protect me too.

It should be done if you do not risk yourself in the first place.

Ah, anyway! If you think that way, it's better than controlling yourself.

can you?"

I wonder if there was any truth to what I said, and he nodded, saying that too.

I was hoping you would deny it. Was it too windy?
