Chapter 396: The Dignity of the Food God’s Knight Order

The people of Rocard Kingdom had similar expressions. When Ramyeon Boy Conir appeared, this was what they all thought: ‘Ah, of course it’s possible that someone like him will come here. The next one will definitely be a great person!’.

However, what appeared next was an old man that was checking the area below a cat’s tail. At that point, their burning expectations had already started to cool down. Nevertheless, they still looked forward to the next one. Then, a strange knight appeared, with his hands raised high up in the sky. From what they could see, the knight was pretending to be a pseudo-religious leader.

Their expressions turned stiff at the sight of these men. Who would appear next? Why did a strange man from the demon race appear while making strange sounds like ‘Haa~ haa~’?!

And that was not all!

A three-headed demonic beast from hell, Cerberus, also appeared! Although Cerberus looked just like their description, they were lying down and showing their belly while panting happily, like a cute puppy asking for a belly rub! The strangest part was the fact that they suddenly sat down obediently while wagging their tail gently when they saw Minhyuk in front of them!

“Oh my. How is my Love, Happiness and Hope? Did you miss hyung, huh?”

“Grrr!”

“Grrrrr!”

“Grrrr...!”

‘Even, even their names are strange! What do you mean by Love, Happiness and Hope...?!’

Minhyuk patted this strange pet dog on the head, while Beth desperately hoped that they could really protect their kingdom. After all, they were the ones that hunted Black Dragon Vormon! However, after witnessing these shocking scenes one after the other, Beth finally realized, ‘Ah, I see. Black Dragon Vormon has been sealed for quite a long time.’

Black Dragon Vormon had basically ruled and dominated the entire Rocard Kingdom. Even if he was sealed, he still had enough power to control and rule over Queen Iris. But it seemed like things were completely different from his tyrannical reputation. From what Beth could see, Vormon definitely had to be a lot weaker if these weird people could hunt him.

‘I think that Cerberus-like creature is just something that they made up. They probably just made a claim that the dog is a demonic beast from hell.’

Rocard Kingdom was completely cut off from the rest of the world. Although they were not sure, they were very open to the idea that a creature molded after the appearance of Cerberus, a great demonic beast from hell, was really being raised like a pet dog in the outside world. All of them sighed lightly as they watched Minhyuk call for his troops.

The Death Corps that he has nurtured so far! Their total number was at 1,500, and unlike those that have appeared before them, they looked completely normal.

Beth did not express any disappointment nor dissatisfaction. He said, “You’re really reliable.”

Although Beth felt that they were not as powerful as they expected them to be, it did not change the fact that they came here to help them.

“Thank you.”

Minhyuk nodded in return. He was now the master of a guild, he should never bow his head easily to others. Then, the notifications began to ring one after the other.

[If Ben wins against the Founder of Spearmanship, Evon, he will be able to grow a step further.]

[Every time Conir cuts down 10,000 undead, he will be able to grow a step further.]

[If Love, Hope and Happiness hunt Hydra, they will be able to grow a step further.]

[If Best Selling Author Aruvel successfully confuses his enemies using his brilliant and amazing tactics, he will gain inspiration from the undead.]

[If Paladin Corr cleans up the undead, he will be able to grow a step further.]

[The general troops’ EXP acquisition rate will increase by 5x.]

“...!”

The notifications were quite a blessing. They were already taking on a Kingdom Building Quest, but they were able to get some windfall and acquire additional rewards! Minhyuk roughly estimated the number of the undead to be around 50,000. On the other hand, the total number of their troops and allies was only around 10,000.

“How many farmer knights and mages do you have with you?”

“Around 500 people.”

Minhyuk nodded as he hurriedly looked around again. That was when he saw an NPC store.

‘Lily’s Grocery Store.’

Minhyuk hurriedly went to Lily’s store. He knew that Beth and the people of Rocard Kingdom were bound to doubt them and their powers. However, he had a plan. Soon, he was able to find the ingredient that he was looking for among the groceries sold in Lily’s Grocery Store, ‘Special Ramyeon Noodles’. He hurriedly clicked on the item to check its information.

(Special Ramyeon Noodles)

Ingredient Grade: S

Special Abilities:

• Can increase the attack and defense. However, it will be entirely dependent on the chef’s skills.

Just as the thought passed Beth’s mind...

“Uwaaaaaah!”

“What accuracy! That’s some deadly accuracy you got there!!!”

“You’re really strong!”

...cheers erupted from above the walls. Beth immediately led his men to climb the walls. There, he saw the Atlas Soldiers under Minhyuk’s command shooting their arrows or using magic. The shocking thing was that whenever they shot their arrows, their accuracy rate was 100%. Even their magic had unbelievable destructive power. There were also five priests among them! These priests were using their holy power to destroy the undead coming near the walls.

“...!”

Beth was very shocked.

“They were originally Athenae Religion’s priests but they have converted now and have become Talmor priests.”

“Talmor?”

Beth looked around until he caught sight of the Talmor Cult Leader, Corr, standing beside the priests. Beth knew about Athenae Religion, it was the religion with the greatest and most outstanding priests! But no matter how he looked at it, those priests that originally served the Athenae Religion were now serving the sect leader next to them.

‘Ho?’

Beth could not help but burst out in admiration. However, this much power was not enough to stop their enemies.

“But...”

But before Beth could finish his sentence, Minhyuk had already turned to his Cerberus, who was rubbing its heads on his body, and said, “Love, Happiness, Hope. If you teach a lesson to that ugly guy with nine heads for hyung, hyung will give you some nice beef jerky for your snack. Can you do it for me? Huh?”

“Grrrrr!”

“Keuhaaaa!”

“Graaaaaaaaa!”

The pet dog, which they thought to be a demonic beast, suddenly roared before leaping off of the walls. It leapt to where the hydra was.

“W... wait...! Y... you! Why would you put your pet dog in danger?!!!” Beth shouted hurriedly.

However, Minhyuk just looked at the battlefield with his arms folded in front of his chest while his knights stood on both his sides.

“Conir! Conir will teach a lesson to the ugly guys!”

“Hoho. My son... no, my lord. I will finish it soon so I can make coffee for you.”

“Tsk, tsk. Look at all those undead. All of them are bald! I’ll make sure to make hair bloom on that bald head of theirs!”

“Oho? How about a story about a hot and blazing love between an undead and a human? Huh? But there’s no such concept for the undead...?”

All of them were looking at the situation on the battlefield. Then, Minhyuk said, “Knights.”

“Yes, my lord!”

They replied loudly with a distinctly different momentum from before. Ghost Spear Ben slowly held his spear, while Conir raised his sword. Corr also wore his horned helmet, while Aruvel picked up his black spear.

‘Their, their aura and momentum changed...?!’

The aura and dignity that they were showing was that of a legend. And at that moment...

Baaaaaaaang—

“Kiheeeeeeeeek!”

“Kyahaaaaack!”

“Keuhaaaaaaaack!”

A shrill scream broke out from somewhere. Beth and the rest of the troops on the walls turned to look at the direction where the sound came from. There, they saw the pet dog, Love, Hope, and Happiness, tearing the necks of the hydra that was five times bigger than it.

“...!”

Beth’s breath was caught in his throat. Then, Minhyuk gave his orders to the legends that were standing beside him, “Destroy them.”
