We Defeated the Demon and Disbanded Without Any Conflict - Chapter 144
144 – Later story_Ring presentation ceremony_2
The store manager’s eyes widened. The hand that had been fiddling with his nails had become stiff.
His body was stiffened by the sight of him walking confidently as if treating the confession that had just happened before that would shake the continent as if it hadn’t happened.
Why did he come here? I knew it without thinking too deeply. He must have come to buy trinkets for the members of the First Hero, who are now completely his.
The first warrior and his companions, the beings who not only subdued the group of demons who brought chaos to the continent without outside help, but also invaded the base of the enemies and subdued the chief of evil. It was only natural for her to become their devoted follower.
Especially since she had seen them fight quite close, the size of her feelings for them was even greater.
That’s why the store manager looked at him badly after his speech.
Someone who didn’t even know where they fell suddenly declared that he would own them all. Even more so, they all acknowledged it.
-Don’t be ridiculous. I didn’t admit it.
“under.”
“..Yes?”
The store owner’s sudden snort. Ron was puzzled and asked the reason for his actions.
“Oh, that’s okay, I have no intention of giving anything, so give up and leave.”
“Yes? I’m here to buy some jewelry?”
“That’s why I don’t intend to give it to you. Annoyingly…”
“Did you say you’re annoying? That guest…”

No matter how personal feelings there are, it is basic to properly respond to guests, but it seems that such a basic point has been forgotten with the subject of owning such a large building.
“It doesn’t matter. Why? Do you want to buy something because it’s nice to have three legs on?”
Ron’s expression was relaxed, although he could be offended by sarcastic remarks. As if I was expecting all of this… No, I was actually expecting it.
The group of first warriors, led by the Rain Guard-On, were heroes who saved the continent no matter what anyone said, and he was no different from an evil who suddenly revealed his relationship with them and declared that he would possess them.
So he expected many people to condemn him. It’s not that surprising.
Of course, it is true that the original plan was slightly different. His plan was to buy an expensive ring with a beautiful appearance from here and present it to them again.
Ten minutes before revealing everything, it was Ron who realized that the things he had given them were gone. They probably died after protecting their bodies from something. I was more concerned about the sense of loss they felt than the joy of knowing that what I had given them as a gift worked.
So this time, I was planning to present an accessory that had no additional effect. This time, do not divide the kind for nothing, but with a ring to everyone.
The shop is not the only one here. I just picked this place because it had the best reviews for quality.
There seemed to be no such thing as craftsmanship. It’s just that I met a workshop that does distribution well, so I’m winning like this.
“I can’t help it if you don’t like it. I’ll look for it elsewhere.”
The store manager didn’t even look at him, let alone greet him as he left the store.
If you told Mirsen, you could cut its throat in an instant and hang it on the gates of the empire.
If he had told Rain, his limbs could have been amputated before the manager could resist anything, and if he had told Sola, the body could have been destroyed. If you tell Lian, you will repeat cutting and pasting until your mind is remodeled.
He didn’t tell anyone about the manager’s rude attitude.

Now, no one can know the truth unless he speaks. Because I took off everything I had attached to keep an eye on him.
Ron is not such a narrow-minded person as to resent something like this. It’s ridiculous to come here and say ‘I’m going to break it all down’.
In exchange, though, he intended to spread rumors. This store was worse than I thought – to reach people’s ears from ear to ear.
It was a way to make him confident, but in a way, he could face the worst ending for a merchant.
Regardless of whether the rumors he had been telling everyone were true or false, Ron now was in a position to attract people’s attention. Regardless of whether he is talking to himself or not, people start to listen.
False information that has been polished closer to the truth. There is no opponent more talkative than an angry mob. Perhaps for the next few days, he will work hard to silence the rumors about his store.
It wasn’t a complete lie, so I can’t get the number of cases. It means that there is no point in trying to make it fall in reverse.
Enchanted by his words, people start to move to the store. Inside the store, where you can see the inside from the outside, you can see the store manager, who is wide-eyed and surprised at the crowd of customers, trying to respond to the customers. But that’s for a while. The store manager’s expression distorted when she saw the faces of the angry crowd.
Ron only checked the figure and went to buy the ring. However, no matter how much I searched, there was no good store. Only things that look at him negatively or things are in poor condition.
‘It’s wrong to try to buy it in the first place.’
Thinking that it would be wrong to make a purchase, he went to the workshop where the heat shone with heat.
Originally, it was a workshop that Lane often visited because it dealt with weapons and armor, and the owner of this workshop was famous for responding calmly to any big player.
“hello.”
Instead of answering, Ron came inside at the cheerful sound of hammering. As if it was a different space, the sudden heat tickled my scars and I hesitated a bit, but once I entered, I was able to adapt to the heat again.
“What’s going on?”
“I’m going to make a ring.”
“Ring? In the workshop?”
“Yes.”
“You came to the wrong place? This is where weapons are made.”
“It’s not like you can’t make it, right? I heard that the owner of this place is the best blacksmith on the continent?”
It was a lie, of course. The continent is wide and there are not many artisans. Apart from his blunt attitude, this blacksmith’s skills were average.
After hearing Ron’s words, the blacksmith’s eyes drew an arc. The smile that swayed from the heat reminded me of a fairy who appeared to grant a wish.
“You’ve come to see it well. Yes, there is also a ring frame. Accessories are not under my jurisdiction, so the price will be a bit high. Is that okay?”
“I have to give you enough. I’ll pay for the workshop rental, the minted silver, and the extra help.”
“..Really? Where did you come from doing some blacksmith work?”
“No? This is your first time?”
“But you’ll do it? I won’t stop you, but… since you’re renting the entire studio, you’ll get paid enough for it, you know?”
“Sure. I’m prepared.”
Finally, the blacksmith took out a bunch of silver ingots and laid them out. That alone was already an overwhelming sight.
It was intended to make them lose their will and run away by directly showing how much they had to pay. However, contrary to the blacksmith’s intention, he nodded with a determined expression.
“I’m ready.”
At that attitude, the blacksmith internally admitted defeat. You must have already made up your mind. I will do my best to assist and help as much as possible.
The sound of heat and hammering does not stop. As if to ridicule Ron’s will to declare that he would do the process of hitting with a hammer instead of melting and putting it in a mold, the accumulated silver ingots are gradually reduced. In preparation for that, something that has failed accumulates.
Time flies. Her skin was so hot that she could tell at a glance. Even so, the will in those eyes continued to burn without extinguishing.
“Still, you’re good with your hands. I think you’ve already caught on.”
He hit the hammer with such concentration that he couldn’t even hear the blacksmith’s words. Only the sound of metal touching metal resonates.
And in the end, I was able to create five rings with a somewhat decent appearance.
“Ha.. heeuk..”
“You worked hard. It’s not a bad result.”
“I thought if I made it a few more times, I could make something really good…”
“If I did it a few more times, I would have exhausted myself and stretched out. I can still see my legs and arms shaking.”
“That’s right. Thank you for your help. I think I was able to finish it quickly thanks to you.”
“You’re not going to talk like that, are you? You’ll get all the money?”
“Of course I’ll give it to you. It’s not that extreme.”
Ron pulled out a jingling leather pouch from a rucksack tucked into the corner and handed it to him. The blacksmith who received it nodded at the heavy weight and put each ring separately and handed it to him.
“Why don’t you check how much it is?”
“Didn’t I say it’s not the end? It’s because it’s reliable, seeing what it’s doing today. The packaging box is a bonus.”
After Ron thanked him for his kindness, he left the smithy. And a man who is looking for him like that.
Instead of being protected by everyone on the balcony of the academy, he was walking down the street defenselessly. It’s from a jewelry store that looks expensive there. If you catch it, you will be able to play a big role.
A man in a tight helmet approaches him with a handkerchief dipped in an anesthetic. Pretending to be a passer-by I bumped into, I was thinking of sneaking it across his mouth.
Approach him through the hesitant crowd. One step, two steps, three steps.
As I was about to bring my hand out of my pocket and bring it to his face, within reach of my foot wide forward, his hand was blocked.
“What are you doing?”
He looked up at the hand holding his wrist. In order to become the man who was her target, she was holding on to herself and asking like that. But if you’re embarrassed like this, you wouldn’t have thought of committing a crime.
“What do you mean?”
“This one.”
“Why is this? It’s just a handkerchief.”
“Just a handkerchief? Isn’t it buried in something?”
“You catch a live person… Didn’t you say you were a companion of the warrior? Do you use it if someone like that suddenly suspects someone who was just walking?”
A man who tried to aim for the next opportunity while giving up his pretense. But when he came to his senses, it had been a long time since the flow had passed over him.
It was too easy for Ron to take what was tightly held in his hand, which he should never have taken away.
The man’s eyes widened at a series of processes that he couldn’t even understand.
‘I can’t do it… if I lose this…’
Even if you think like that, the ship that has already left will not come back. Ron swiped his index finger through his handkerchief, scooped out a tiny amount, and held it to his tongue. Anesthetizing poison instantly paralyzed the tip of the tongue.
A fairly strong paralytic. He noticed with a very small amount of scent, but he dared to confirm it.
“Is it a paralytic? Who bought it for you?”
The man couldn’t say anything even though Ron smiled as if he had caught the number. It was as if he had already admitted what he was trying to do when he found out he had numbed his handkerchief.
will you run away? Shall we fight? No, but you said it was a group of first-time warriors. From what I’ve heard, it sounds like you’ve done a great job… What can I do?
Crowd’s attention. A man shaken by the piercing eyes. Of course I knew these people would come, but I didn’t expect them to come this soon.
‘I have to use it well.’
Determined to take advantage of the situation, Ron begins to speak to the crowd.
“Guys, I’m also a member of the party of the first warriors. A surprise attack like this doesn’t work, so if you don’t want to come and get caught, don’t attack at all.”
It was an announcement that was close to a bluff, but the effect seemed certain. You can see that some of the enemy’s young gazes have moved away little by little.
“Take this for you.”
“Yes? Uh.. Uh..”
Ron grabbed a handkerchief and blocked his breathing. Surprised by the action, the man catches his breath, but his eyes close and he collapses on the side of the road.
Ron just left the man on the ground and headed to where they were. To present a ring made by yourself.
