Why I Quit Being the Demon King

Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 60

——-

14. Looking for a new butler (3)

Zeke grabbed a shield and a sword from the store and climbed the western hill of Zoryx Castle.

After running along the mountain path and climbing for about half an hour, you will come across a wide open space with the ruins of a watchtower.

That was the place where I always practiced swordsmanship.

If he had a mansion with a yard like other families, he would have done it in front of his house, but

if he used a sword on the street late at night, he was likely to be reported for noise pollution.

“It’s a trace of a beacon fire.”

Deus said while stroking the watchtower.

“Beacon fire?”

“Using fire or smoke to communicate over long distances. “Now that wizards are taking over that work, it may have been abandoned like this.”

“It was a place where people didn’t come, so I was using it as a training place.”

“Well then, let’s take a look. “It’s Holy Jade’s

weapon technique.”

“It’s called Moonlight Bird. It means that the moonlight shines.”

Zeke stood on a flat surface holding a sword and shield.

I was a little nervous about performing my skills in front of Deus again.

I put up my shield and hid in the shadows.

The hero’s enemy was the devil.

There was no way I could block the magic power of that powerful being and the power of my body with my bare body.

Hide your body and move forward.

Close the distance and kill the enemy with a sword strike

.

Deus frowned as he looked at his weapon skills made with simple movements.

Zeke’s hand stops at that expression.

“I’m sorry.”

“huh? what?”

“Is it that bad?”

“Hmm…

Deus sighed for a moment and then opened his mouth.

“Try again.”

“Yes old!”

Zeke came to his senses and

used Holy Bee’s shield sword technique again.

Block it bluntly and stab it hard.

Although there was little technique, he put his heart and soul into each and every movement.

The Holy Jade Shield swordsmanship, divided into 24 movements, was completed.

With just that much, Zeke was breathing heavily as if he was exhausted.

Then I made eye contact with Deus again.

He seemed to be worried about something, so I felt intimidated without even realizing it.

How bad does it have to be to worry about it for so long?

“Try again.”

“yes? four!”

“This time I will attack.”

” ancient.”

Zeke put up his shield.

Immediately after that, Deus approached.

He walked lightly and waved the tip of his sword. It was difficult to even clearly see where the blade was going.

Zeke took a step forward and held out his shield.

But Deus was no longer there. He turned to the side and stabbed

Zeke in the side .

Sigh!

I looked down in surprise and saw that it was Deus’ finger.

“again.”

“Yes old!”

Zeke took a stance. Deus pressured Zeke in the same way as before.

His movements were so light and fast that Zeek’s dull swordsmanship could not keep up.

All you can do is turn and hold out your shield.

Even so, after a few seconds, a gap appeared and I ended up stabbing my side with my finger.

Zeke’s shoulders shook.

I was completely exhausted and my breath made a hissing sound.

“Stop bothering me.”

Yulgeum, who was worse off, opened his mouth.

“Who is bullying whom?”

“Is that you, Zeke?”

“Do you really think so?”

“It’s like,

“You know. “What is the problem?”

“Of course I know.”

Zeke, who was on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion, stepped forward again.

“I’m fine. You can do as much as you want. So please make me stronger.”

Deus shook his head.

“It’s impossible.”

“yes?”

“It’s impossible with your family’s shield skills.”

“Is… is it that bad?” Zeke’s shoulders slumped.

It seemed like he was quite shocked by Deus’ words.

“huh. “It’s impossible to keep practicing for a lifetime.”

“To that extent… what Mr. Cadenza said was true. “Why but what… Then was it that the wrong martial arts were passed down from generation to generation?”

“Calm down your excitement. For now, sit down and rest.”

Deus looked down at his hands as he spoke.

Poor swordsmanship.

Considering that he had dealt with that, his condition was a little strange.

My hands were soaked with sweat.

I didn’t get tired just by swinging the sword a few times.

Still, my fingertips were trembling slightly.

“It seems like even your ancestors were stubborn.”

Zeke, who was sitting and catching his breath, tilted his head and looked up at Deus.

“Should I say he was honest or should I say he only dug one well? “It’s like seeing only one thing and living for hundreds of centuries just for that.”

“What do you mean?”

“The shield sword technique you are using can only deal with one being. “Well,

if I were to apply it a little, it would be worth fighting with similar beings.”

Deus spoke again, looking at Zeke who was confused.

“Rest for now. “We’ll do it again in 30 minutes.”

“yes.”

After a while, Zeke stood up again.

My panting breath subsided and my shoulders no longer shook.

Deus, who saw his eyes burning with fighting spirit, spoke to Yulgeum.

“Summon just one golem. He is

2.4 meters tall.”

“okay.”

Silver circles tangled on the floor like vines and formed a huge turret.

In response to Yulgeum’s summons, the earth swallowed trees and stones and turned into a human shape.

Contrary to the image of a monster called an earthen doll, the golem summoned by Yulgeum almost resembled a human being.

The golem attacked Zeke following Yulgeum’s orders.

With movements as quick as a human,

the earth giant struck Zeke in the face.

Quang!

The shield collided and Zeke’s body was pushed back.

However, it seemed that the training I had been doing all my life was not nonsense. He was able to respond to the golem’s next attack by changing his movements while his body was floating in the air.

One sum, two sum.

The battle continued.

Zeke had a really strange feeling at this moment.

I’m not sure… but my body moved much better.

He took a big leap and ran forward. He blocked the golem’s fist, which flew like a hammer, with his shield and rolled on the floor.

The golem’s legs were visible at close range. He swung his sword and cut off his knee.

A lump of dirt fell to the ground and the golem’s body tilted.

The earth man quickly recovered and aimed for the head again, but Zeke was a step faster.

He widened the distance with a side step and collided with the golem with his body using his shield.

“it’s okay.”

Deus waved his hand as if there was nothing more to see, and the golem created by Yulgeum stopped moving.

Deus approached Zeke.

“Do you understand now?”

“yes.”

“Well, this is just my guess… but it is true that your family has lost most of its martial arts. “Whether it was because of financial difficulties or other reasons, I probably didn’t have time to study or study.”

Deus looked up at the golem.

Before transforming into human form, his

height was about the same as this golem.

“The only thing left behind would have been a fighting method to deal with the Demon King.”

Zeke looked down at his hands.

“It’s a shield sword technique that can’t be used against humans. The movements are too large and require a lot of force. “But against a powerful being like the Demon Lord, using tricks is meaningless.”

Zeke smiled softly.

“It wasn’t useless.”

“Well, it’s true that you’re at a disadvantage when fighting other monsters or humans. “If you

become more advanced, you may be able to apply it.”

“Lord Deus!”

“Why are you yelling?”

“It wasn’t a useless martial art!”

“What is it…

Tears welled up in Zeke’s eyes.

A family of contract warriors.

The miserable reality of the fallen family loomed in Zeek’s heart like resentment.

Although I am now somewhat established thanks to Deus’ guidance,

I have never forgotten my parents’ miserable end.

The family’s stubborn practice of shield swordsmanship was like its symbol.

Although my father mastered the family’s shield and swordsmanship, he remained a third-rate warrior throughout.

Rather than hunting monsters, they were even grappling with bandits.

From birth until now, I have suffered countless hardships while learning my family’s shield and sword techniques.

I never stopped practicing, but I never stopped doubting either.

Is it a proper martial art?

Just yesterday the cadenza

set his heart on fire.

“A child is a child.”

Deus tapped Zeke’s head.

“Where is the useful and where is the useless? It’s all up to you. “A sword is coming from the right. Are you going to raise your shield to the left just because you trained to block on the left?”

“Where is such an idiot?”

“You’re such an idiot. “What if I tell you to block the front with all your might and the opponent is lightly holding his sword and taking a side step, but he focuses all of his strength forward

?”

Deus said this and turned around.

“Now that I know what the problem is, it’s okay. Jik.”

“yes.”

“Tomorrow, under the butler recruitment notice posted outside the door, write that preference is given to those who can take swordsmanship lessons.”

“Lord Deus!”

“Don’t be moved again.”

“thank you.”

“I told you not to overdo it. Anyway, your family’s shield sword skills

are only for dealing with the devil. It’s not that it’s useless, but if you think about it, you could say it’s useless. Anyway, your abilities are not good enough to deal with the Demon King, so your shield and sword skills are showing extraordinary power. “Keep trying.”

“All right!”

After returning to the castle and saying goodbye to Zeke, Yulgeum opened his mouth as he walked down the road leading to the hotel.

“Are you going to be okay?”

“what?”

“Zeek. “Aren’t you being too nice to me

?”

“It’s just entertainment.”

“It’s entertainment… don’t get too attached.”

“Now that I see that damn woman, she has such a wide range of hair.”

“It’s because I’m worried about Zeke. “You might be shocked later when you find out who you are receiving help from.”

“Is there anything you want to know?”

“You never know.”

“You can think about it later. “Are you really okay?”

” what?”

“Why don’t you go back now? “Isn’t it enough to pretend to be

dead ?”

“After finding the ‘him’ who suggested the plan to Gene.”

Deus placed his clasped hands on the back of his head.

“Looking at the trend so far, it seems like Yongdu Sami. Honestly, the final boss is too weak. Moreover, three of the limbs are already in my hands, and the rest are weak enough to be caught tomorrow…

“Because no one would have thought that the devil would come forward.”

“Am I too strong?”

“You’re not at the point of showing off?”

“Who was it that begged you to spare your life after losing to me?”

“I don’t remember anything like that. “I just pretended to be dead because I needed to.”

“If you want to build your pride, do it.”

“Anyway, once this matter is resolved, I won’t bother you anymore, so don’t worry.”

“Well, it’s not really bothersome.”

“Oh, are you confessing that you want to be together more?”

“Ha, can you get off right now? “As soon as the sun rises

tomorrow .”

“I’m embarrassed again.”

“That’s really shameless. “I guess she’s a 60,000-year-old woman.”

“Oh my, who would have said that I was born in an age of chaos?”

“Could it be that you were born in the Silver Age?”

“It’s rude to ask a woman’s age.”

Deus looked at Yulgeum again.

“I thought it was just a grandmother, but it turned out to be a walking fossil.”

“You are truly incredibly rude. I don’t know who it is, but

I hope a butler who is even more rude than Alex comes to visit.”

We arrived in front of the hotel before we knew it.

“Go in. Dust will fly from your weathered bones.”

“profit!”

Yulgeum stamped his feet and walked into the hotel.

Deus smiles and turns around.

“If you treat me too well, you’ll get attached to me?”

While repeating those words, I walked down the street at night.
