I Became A Part Time Employee For Gods Chapter 68
#68. Holy sword Excalibur!
“What... what now?”
William looked at Damdeok with a dumbfounded face.
The secretary hurries over and wipes William’s wet shirt.
Damdeok looked at William blankly.
“Didn’t you say you could give it all? “Is Excalibur a bit difficult?”
William’s face flushed red.
Excalibur.
It is the strongest sword in existence on Earth and is the ancient sword of King Arthur, which has been passed down in legend.
If we had to grade it, it was a sword of such high value that it wouldn’t be surprising if it were rated 9 or even 10 right away.
‘Fuck! Are you crazy? Or are you just floating around?’
William continued to wipe his sweat with a handkerchief and looked at Damdeok’s expression.
No matter which country in the world you go to, Excalibur is not presented as a negotiating weapon.
why?
of course!
Excalibur was stolen by grave robbers in the 1800s and has never been found!
Rumors abound that it was cursed and buried under lava in a volcano, or that it was sunk in the middle of the South Pacific, but no one has ever seen it.
What that Asian young man was asking for now was the same as asking for an imaginary animal, a unicorn.
If you look at it from the line of general common sense, that is.
But,
‘Let’s calm down, William. calm down. There’s absolutely no way the information was leaked... It’s a fact that only a few people know that we obtained Excalibur...!’
However, coincidentally, the Midas Company succeeded in obtaining Excalibur, which had been missing for 300 years, just a few days ago.
In all kinds of illegal ways that ordinary people can’t even imagine.
William bit his fingernails and looked at Damdeok’s expression.
You’re definitely going to try it, right?
Yes, that is definitely floating...!
After thinking, William smiled and tried to change the mood.
“...haha. Mr. Yu’s joke is too much. Excalibur. That’s just a legend, right? “Don’t you need the dragon’s horn?”
The reception staff behind us burst out laughing at the American joke.
However, Ju Soo-yul, who was sitting next to Damdeok, had an expressionless expression the entire time.
“Haha... Hmm... Khum! Anyway, Hunter. Let’s leave the jokes aside and get to the point. If you’ve been craving Excalibur, we’ll give you a very realistic fake as a gift. Now, can you tell me what you really want?”
Damdeok’s face hardened.
“I already told you what I wanted.”
“Haa... Mr. Yu, that’s nonsense...”
“Please stop. “Because I knew everything.”
William’s gestures stopped.
The atmosphere suddenly became cold.
Ju Soo-yul smiled as he watched William’s expression change from moment to moment.
‘Anyway... This guy, Damdeok Yoo, is no ordinary crazy person.’
I remembered a conversation we had a while ago on the way to Midas’ company.
“...what? You want to receive Excalibur? “You mean that ancient sword of King Arthur?”
“Yes. Because I can’t get stronger through a part-time job right now. Wouldn’t it be better to at least upgrade your weapon?」
「That’s true, but that sword has been gone for a long time.」
「Keukeok, I thought that was the case too, but it turned out not to be the case.」
This is what Damdeok said with a smile.
The banquet hall of the gods.
At a time when everyone was in an excited mood, Thor, who was quite drunk, started talking about various things.
“joy! There is no end to the cruelty of humans these days! “Arthur, if that guy had seen it, he would have thrown them all in the shit... Hmm...” It
is said that Thor and King Arthur were friends for a long time.
It was purely coincidental.
While listening to Thor’s boring saga, I heard a terrible story about a murderer related to Excalibur.
‘I can’t believe I’m thinking of using it like this.’
It was not unreasonable to be impressed by the address.
“I... I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
William casted the flippers sticking out skill.
Of course, Damdeok did not give in at all.
“Think about it carefully. I know not only the current location of Excalibur, but also how it was obtained. Honestly, I’m a little worried. “If the world knew about that, what would happen to the company’s position...”
Damdeok trailed off and looked at William.
His face was already glistening with cold sweat.
“What the hell do you know?”
“What do you know?”
Damdeok grinned and raised his upper body. And he whispered softly in William’s ear.
“Everything you did.”
William’s face turned red.
“How rude! We will not negotiate! Please leave immediately! right now!!”
“Haha good. I guess it would be too much of a robbery to just ask for it, so I’ll just look at it for a moment. Just five minutes. How is it?”
The sound of William swallowing his saliva in excitement echoed throughout the reception room.
‘this! What am I thinking now...!’
I almost fell over.
Just five minutes to watch?
It’s obvious!
‘No one should know that we have Excalibur now!’
‘Or La Burkham in second place?’
William, who was sober from alcohol in an instant, sat upright and watched the news.
Then a familiar face appeared on the screen.
William’s expression became distorted.
– Yes, this is Yu Dam-deok, a 6-star hunter.
– How did you plan on conquering the KN20391 dungeon alone?
– This solo subjugation is my personal challenge...
What the heck!
Why is that guy suddenly here?
William gaped at the absurdity.
‘No, I heard that guy isn’t really good at hunter activities...’
But on the screen, Damdeok was laughing and criticizing Midas Company as if he was making fun of William.
– Hmm, as I said before, if I expected teamwork, I felt like I would be wiped out in an instant. Yes, more than anything, I once again felt that the individual strength of the hunter is important in moments of crisis. To be honest, the power of teamwork isn’t that great in dungeons...
sigh.
what?! Let’s try this now?!
Not only can they talk freely on TV, but they even appear on the news!
William bit his nails as if he was anxious and then suddenly grinned.
When I thought about it, there was no reason to be in a hurry.
‘Well, he’s not even a big person.’
Damdeok was known internationally to some extent, but honestly, he was not a huge star.
It was natural.
Because Damdeok has spent more time in the divine world than in the human world.
‘If a 6-star hunter says something like that, there will be a loss, but that doesn’t mean I can give up Excalibur.’
After all, isn’t he a mid-sized star in the East?
‘If you leave it alone, it will become exhausted and become quiet.’
But William’s thoughts were shattered within a few days.
– Breaking news! 6-star hunter Yu Dam-deok conquers China’s three major unexplored dungeons at once...
– Next news! A few days ago, Yu Dam-deok, who became a 7-star hunter, was organizing large gates on the west coast of Canada...
– CNN News! Korean Hunter Mr. Yu succeeded in conquering the EX-class dungeon in the Arizona desert at 14:00 local time. The United States Department of Defense expressed great gratitude to Korea and treated Mr. Yu as a state guest...
– Korea’s Damdeok Yoo was selected as the 7th most influential hunter in the world by Forbes! As anxiety over the gate grows day by day, the UN coalition forces, led by Korea’s Damdeok Yoo, decide to accelerate the destruction of the gate...
Clink!
William weakly dropped the whiskey glass he was holding.
『...It’s a monster, that’s a monster.』
* * *
“...Are you really going to just watch it for a moment and then go back?”
William looked back at Damdeok with a noticeably gaunt face.
A man who established himself as a world-class hunter in just a few days.
William had no more options.
“Why do you want me to recite what your company has done at the United Nations meeting next week?”
“Oh no!”
William hurriedly threw up his hand.
An underground bunker located beneath a California national park.
A place that has never allowed outsiders to enter.
William opened the huge safe door with all his strength with a tearful expression on his face.
Wow!
A rough sound of metal rang out and the vast interior was clearly revealed.
“Wow... it’s killer...”
I couldn’t help but exclaim.
Excalibur shines brightly alone among various miscellaneous items.
Even though it was underground where no light came in, he was able to keep the light in himself.
Damdeok picked up the sword as if possessed.
[King Arthur’s Excalibur (Legendary)]
Effect:
– Increases the user’s fighting spirit! (When cast, all stats double for 10 minutes!)
– Attributes locked.
– Trait locked.
‘There are as many as three options...!’
Damdeok tried to calm his tearing mouth.
“Good. Then, would you like to try upgrading your weapon?”
As soon as Damdeok finished speaking, Baekseol suddenly appeared from behind him.
“omg...! Suddenly, a fox came out of nowhere...!”
Whether William was surprised or not, Damdeok was completely focused on Excalibur in front of him. Baek Seol also began to feel Excalibur more seriously than ever.
Some time passed and
finally.
– will!!
Snow White, curled up, turned into a pure white Excalibur.
“done...!”
The blade is twice as thick as the existing dragon slayer sword, has a wide handle for easy gripping, and has a stylish blade engraved with an ascending dragon.
Damdeok grinned at the appearance, which was more perfect than the body, and placed Excalibur in William’s arms.
“It hasn’t been five minutes yet, right?”
Damdeok, with the white Excalibur draped around his shoulder, left the vault humming.
“What is that...”
William just looked at Damdeok’s back with a dumbfounded expression on his face.
