112. Crystal Maze (3)
Kwaaaaang!
“Wow, that’s ridiculous… … .”
Seeing the vision of how the pagans were swept away so naturally and easily.
Someone muttered absentmindedly.
Dwarf 7th Prince Tan.
Bound by the pagans, he could only exclaim in amazement at the unbelievable reality.
‘Cutting down the pagans like pieces of wood… Was this possible?’
Think back to when you fought against pagans.
This was absolutely impossible.
All the items he has are A-grade armor.
In particular, the weapon was a S-class weapon, the ‘Kraken Capturer (S)’.
This chain harpoon, which was made to catch the giant demon, the Kraken, required a powerful energy injection to barely penetrate them.
The opponent’s flames and sword were piercing and cutting through his skin so easily.
‘Hey, you even killed the bishop. The bishop needs five dwarves with the rank of great warriors to be able to deal with him? What kind of item are you using…? Is it an item that has the protection of a god?’
Strictly speaking, it was an item that was forcibly taken from God.
Tan had no way of knowing this.
Thump thump.
Is it because he can’t hide the fact that he’s a dwarf who’s crazy about weapons and items?
More than knowing what would happen to his own life, or the fact that he had taken revenge on his comrades.
The desire to analyze and touch the items Si-Hyeon had began to dominate her brain.
But greater than that desire was the very existence of Sihyeon.
Tan had an overwhelming strength and composure that he had never seen in any other being.
That alone was enough to make Tan’s heart race even though he was still a young boy.
‘Maybe… … he might be the hero who can save us from that powerful cult leader.’
“Are you in your right mind?”
While Tan was blankly staring at Sihyeon.
All pagans were dealt with.
“Huh? Huh… … .”
“I can’t get my mind right, kid.”
“Oh, no. I came to my senses.”
Even though the body was still tied up.
Tan tried to be as polite as possible.
The opponent was human and all, and he was ‘strong’ enough to receive this kind of treatment.
[Item, ‘Kibisis (A)’ blooms.]
Black Sun, Astraea, and the Heavenly Sword.
The corpses and items of pagans who had fallen for one of the three were piled up in Kibisis.
Because the scales they possess are excellent materials for making items such as armor.
There was nothing to throw away.
“Oh, a storage item that completely ignores the laws of space? How can that be?”
Looking at Tan, who is drooling at the sight of Kibisis.
Mehen clicked his tongue.
-Why is this guy so stupid?
“A living snake in Halo?”
-Oh my.
As the admiration continued, Tan couldn’t help but look stupid.
‘Well, you’re still young.’
After finishing all the cleanup, Sihyeon approached Tan and swung the Thousand-Armed Sword.
Crunch.
The iron chains that bound Tan’s body were easily cut off.
“let’s go.”
“Let’s go, where… … .”
“Where is it?”
Swish.
“It’s your house.”
***
Because I killed all the pagans.
Tan was able to recover the stolen equipment.
Sihyeon took all the equipment left behind by her friends to Kibisis.
Tan recovered some of his health by consuming a vitality potion thanks to Kibisis, and equipped an item.
‘It’s so shiny.’
As befitting dwarven royalty, Tan’s items were extravagant.
From the armor that covers his entire body to the ornate helmet, the chain harpoon that Sihyeon had seen once, and the ‘Kraken Capturer (S)’.
It wasn’t anything compared to the previous one, but I wouldn’t go around getting hit with an item like that.
‘That must mean the pagans are that strong.’
Even if it looks like it was handled easily on the surface.
While dealing with the pagans, Shihyeon had also consumed a considerable amount of magic energy.
Because their skin was so tough, the usual amount of magic couldn’t penetrate it.
‘I’m a little tired.’
Of course, it was possible to continue to supply it with the magic power potions inside the consumed Magiya Kibisis.
There was nothing to worry about.
“get on.”
Wheeeeeeeeing!
Tan shivered at the sight of the giant bee.
Of course I’ve flown quite a bit, including on airships and hot air balloons at the Crystal Palace.
I had never been on such a rough ride before.
But there is no other way than riding that bug.
Tan had no choice but to climb into Sihyeon’s backseat.
Wheeing!
“Ugh!”
“How cowardly. They say all dwarves are warriors. How cowardly.”
“I’m not scared at all! I’m a proper warrior!”
“Really? You’re not a warrior aspirant?”
“… … .”
After shouting in anger for a moment, Tan had no choice but to keep his mouth shut at Sihyeon’s criticism.
Because it was true what he said that Tan was still a ‘warrior wannabe’.
and.
“Kueeeeek!”
Wheww.
The moment Quick Rain changed orbit to avoid the lava, he let out a strange scream.
It also seemed true that he was scared.
“Hold on tight.”
In this way, Sihyeon rode the Quick Bee and headed to the Crystal Palace using the title of .
Finding the crystal palace was simple.
All you had to do was find a place where dwarves of the rank of legion commander or higher were gathered.
Wheeing!
The flight time was quite long.
Even though we were riding the Quick Bee, the Crystal Maze itself was too wide.
“But why did you save me?”
“Why? How can you ignore a child in trouble?”
“… … .”
Tan’s expression was not very good when he heard the epitome of a righteous answer.
“Are you suspicious?”
“Oh, no.”
Anyway, Sihyeon was his benefactor.
From Tan’s point of view, he had no choice but to accept this, whether he believed it or not.
“He’s human, so he’s probably younger than me, but he’s a child… … .”
“How old are you?”
“I’m 130 years old.”
“… … .”
-Phuhat!
Hearing those words, Mehen laughed in a voice that only Sihyeon could hear.
-I should go and call him old man.
‘Be quiet.’
-And what about justice? It’s not like you saved a child simply because he was being beaten, right?
Sihyeon chuckled at those words.
‘That reason is also included.’
In fact, there was a reason why Sihyeon saved Tan.
A few hours ago, Sihyeon was able to learn through the that the dwarven royalty and the bishop were together.
Since dwarves usually lived together, it was not a good situation for one of the royal family members to be separated like this.
Especially if you are with a pagan bishop.
‘Usually kidnapped by pagans.’
Because it was something that occasionally appeared as a quest even before the return.
Sihyeon was able to quickly grasp the situation and go to Tan’s location.
Luckily, we were able to save the guy before it was too late.
Thanks to that, I was able to erase my ‘debt’.
‘I was already worried about how to roast and boil the dwarves.’
I was lucky.
No, to be exact, Sihyeon took a good opportunity.
By saving the young dwarven royal family, you could automatically repay your debt to the royal family.
‘After all, those pagans are psychos.’
A pagan who sacrifices not only dwarves but also all kinds of creatures.
Among them, especially those of the rank of bishop or higher, of course, are innocent dwarves.
Now, it was a being that forcibly sucked and absorbed the blood of human players who came down to the Crystal Maze one by one.
And that too, alive.
Because I had been harassed by them more than once before my regression.
There was no feeling of guilt.
‘No, rather, it’s just refreshing.’
Pagans are the main enemies that human players who come down to the Crystal Maze must defeat.
It was a definite advantage to eliminate the bishop among them in advance.
***
“There it is!”
“good.”
Phew!
The result of using to determine direction and fly.
A giant crystal castle appeared before Sihyeon’s eyes.
You could tell how big it was by the fact that it was clearly visible from such a distance.
Well, considering that there were 10 million dwarves living inside that crystal, it was even more strange that it was so narrow.
‘It seems bigger than the change station.’
It’s been a long time since I’ve been to the crystal palace.
I suddenly realized how huge these guys are.
Ding ding ding ding!
Contrary to Sihyeon’s intention.
The guards and the stone people who saw the vision flying through the air rang the alarm.
‘It’s worth the price of the meal.’
The stone people here, not in the Train Maze, were doing odd jobs like security and cleaning instead of the dwarves.
Kookookookook… … .
Dwarven giant harpoons and cannons formed a net around the vision.
With Sihyeon’s skills, it would have been possible to get through them.
Since now was not the time to fight the opponent, Sihyeon simply stopped Quick B.
And then it descended very slowly.
“uh?”
“It’s the 7th prince!”
“Everyone put your weapons away!”
The stone people who saw the bullet behind Sihyeon let their guard down.
In the meantime, Sihyeon was coming down.
Somewhere deep within the Crystal Palace, crowned dwarves quickly emerged.
“Tan-ah!”
“Seven Princes!”
Seeing the small-sized kings and queens, princes and princesses, running quickly and embracing their sons.
Sihyeon also laughed.
Dwarves had a stronger bond with their families than humans.
‘That’s why I tried so hard to save you.’
Because dwarves don’t forget their ties of loyalty.
If he had saved the prince, Sihyeon could have gotten what he wanted as a reward.
Of course, orcs, elves, humans, etc.
Even transcendent beings such as angels, demons, and dragons cannot do this.
Through a technique that only ‘dwarves’ can use.
‘Okay. The reunion plan was successful.’
Looking at the Hammer family having a touching reunion.
Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.
‘Items can become much stronger.’
***
Crystal Maze, Crystal Palace.
A spacious audience room.
Mithril magic circles installed so that no magical power can be activated.
Among the improved earthen knights who protect the dwarves.
Looking up at the King of Hammerga, ‘Koung’, sitting on a throne.
Sihyeon stood proudly.
Originally, when you saw the Dwarf King, you had to kneel and pay respect.
Sihyeon didn’t do that.
From their perspective, there was no need for Sihyeon to do so because he was already a benefactor and a guest of honor.
[The knowledge of the item, ‘Draupnir (C)’ begins to shine.]
[Activate Odin’s 14th rune magic, ‘Rune Magic: Rune of Intuition (??)’.]
[Get information on the King of Hammers, Kohung.]
Level: 150
Class: Blacksmith
Title: Underground Three Kings – Hammer (S)
Master of the Hammer (A)
[Strength 592] [Physical Strength 402] [Agility 30] [Intelligence 102] [Magic Power 54] … … (omitted)
[Item Crafting (SS)] [Armor Crafting (S)] [Skillful Handwork (B)] … … .
#One of the three kings that rule the Crystal Maze, he is a blacksmith with many talents.
Because Kohung was a player with ‘kingly qualities’ like Sihyeon.
The rune of insight was still effective.
‘It might not work well with the gods, though.’
Reading the comprehensive evaluation, I found out that Kohung is the king of Hammerga and a craftsman with the ability to create all items.
He was quite a versatile person.
In particular, it was impressive that the strength stat was so strong that it exceeded 1,500.
‘And on top of that, I’m at max level… … .’
The max level for players is 120, and the max level for those with the title of King is 150.
Kohung was a king who could no longer level up.
“Thank you so much… thank you so much.”
Whether Sihyeon is evaluating it like that or not.
Kohung didn’t seem to care about that and just thanked Sihyeon.
“What would have happened if something had happened to Prince Tan… … .”
“I don’t even want to think about it.”
“Phew… … .”
Next to them, an elf queen and three dwarf concubines breathed a sigh of relief.
Before his return, Sihyeon had never met the royal family in person.
Not only did they not give out quests often, but even when they did clear the quests, the Stone People gave rewards instead.
So, I only knew it through rumors, but the queen leading this Hammer family is a blue elf.
That was also a high elf, Lynn.
‘It was a symbol of reconciliation after the war between dwarves and elves.’
Because both races were long-lived, living for 1,000 years.
I thought it suited me well.
“Thank you so much.”
The Elf Queen, Lynn, expressed her sincere gratitude.
That was understandable.
After hearing the story, it turns out that Prince Tan, the 7th Prince, was the only child of Kohung and Lin.
‘The Elf Queen… … There was a reason why Tan was tall for a dwarf child.’
Looking at the royal family like that.
Sihyeon laughed inwardly.
Now it was time to get to the main point.
