Why I Quit Being the Demon King

Why I Quit Being the Demon King Chapter 61

——–

14. Looking for a new butler (4)

It was a lazy afternoon when Zeke came over to Deus and woke him up from a nap.

“Master Deus.”

“why?”

“I am a guest.”

“What customer?”

“I heard you came here after seeing a deacon recruitment notice.”

“Oh, I did that too.”

Deus lowered his legs from the sofa table and stretched.

The human body was very uncomfortable. It suddenly feels numb, throbbing, and painful.

I turned my neck loudly and stood up.

“Please come in.”

” yes.”

The person who entered the back room, guided by Zeke, was a man who appeared to be in his 20s.

He was a beautiful young man with a short stature and beautiful facial features that made one believe he was a woman.

The outfit was nothing special, and the only thing that stood out was the hood on his head

.

“fail.”

“yes’?”

Zeke shouted in embarrassment.

“You look weak. “Where do you see that body that has mastered swordsmanship?”

The young man took a step forward.

“I have something I want to say to you separately. “Would you please listen to my story, just for a moment?”

It was a strange feeling.

Even though he was criticized right in front of his face, he didn’t seem to care at all. With

his gentle voice and elegant manner of speaking,

even Deus couldn’t find anything to say for a moment.

“Zeke.”

“Yes, Deus.”

“Go back to the store.”

” ancient.”

After he left, only Deus and the young man remained in the living room.

Deus gestured toward the other side of the sofa he was sitting on.

” sit down.”

“yes.”

“You know that we are choosing a deacon, right?”

“yes.”

“I’m not the type of person to respect my butler.”

“I think it’s natural to be comfortable with subordinates.”

“I just need to know. So what is it that you want to say? “If it’s nothing, they’ll tell me to pay back in money the amount of time I lost.”

“First, let me tell you my name.”

“uh.”

“It’s called Skatul el Tora.”

“Can I call you Scatul?”

“yes.”

“so?”

“You’re not surprised.”

“why?”

“Even after hearing my name.”

“Because you’re a fairy?”

A man named Ska Tull looked surprised

at Deus’s question .

I slowly took off the hood.

The pinna of the ear rose sharply.

Fairy tribe.

They were a mysterious race living in the Horsetail Forest, northeast of the Horse continent.

“It’s really surprising. “I’m not surprised.”

“Why should I be surprised?”

“Because they are fairies/

“If there are dwarves, there will also be fairies. “What’s surprising about that?”

“That’s right…

“Don’t boast about being a fairy in a world where demons and dragon warriors run around.”

“I’m not particularly proud.”

“Then what? “Why are you so hesitant to talk about it?”

“Ah, so…

Scatul felt like it was twisted from the first button.

I had no idea that there were people who

treated fairies so cheaply .

In fact, Deus, who had even Jingeumyong and Yulgeum as part-time employees, had no reason to be surprised by the fairy.

“Is it true that all you have to say is that there are fairies? When you say fairy, you say, ‘Oh my god, fairy, please be my butler. I’ll leave the safe key to you, so please just hire me.’ “Did you know how to do it?”

“It’s like,

‘Okay, so what are you good at? “You’re good at calculations, right?”

“To some extent, I do.”

“To some extent, it’s not necessary. “I have to run

my own store .”

“You can.”

“How about swordsmanship?”

“To some extent…

“You’re such a foolish bastard. “If you’re not top-notch, you don’t know how to do it.”

“How can you say that with your own mouth?”

“Are you at a level where you can’t speak?”

“That’s not it.”

“So how much is it? “Is it possible to eat Jjang in one country?”

“Jjang, what does that mean…

“Is that okay?”

Scatul sighed briefly.

“It’s a lot messier than I heard.”

“I don’t know what you heard, but they won’t hire you unless you’re top-notch. If you want to work part-time, you can do a three-month probationary period and the salary is half that of other employees. “Please hire me, and if you kneel down and beg, I will listen.”

“Master Deus. Or should I call him Demiurge 666?”

“Is that what you heard?”

“yes.”

“I guess it’s not just a fairy.”

“yes. But for now, let’s just leave it as a fairy.”

“So you’re asking me to hire someone whose identity I don’t even know?”

“That’s right.”

“I don’t even know if it’s an enemy or friend? “Are you a dragon or a high-ranking wizard?”

“On the contrary, the ability is good. So much so that I don’t know who you really are.”

“The swordsmanship is also quite excellent. “It is clear that the ‘to some extent’ I am talking about is not human level.”

“I don’t know what you are, but since I’m hired, don’t disobey me. “If you get caught doing something pointless, you will be killed.”

“Is this an outright threat to the employee?”

“Stop hating it. “Don’t you want to be by my side because you want something anyway?”

“That’s right.”

Scatul scratched his cheek and bowed his head.

“Let me be clear, I will be faithful as your butler as long as I am employed by you. But I will decide

when I quit .”

“Are you outright declaring that you will betray me?”

“yes.”

“Okay, I liked that answer. Not hiring. “My monthly salary is five silver coins.”

“Do you provide accommodation and meals?”

“Buy and eat on your own.”

“You’re so cool.”

“If you don’t make more than the money they give you, they’ll cut you off right away.”

“Please leave it to me.”

“So, welcome party.”

Deus, Yulgeum Zeke, and new butler Skatul.

The entire group gathered at Zeke’s stall almost immediately after the arms shop closed.

“What’s wrong? “Did you find a butler?”

Yulgeum looked puzzled.

“It’s because I’m so indifferent to going back to the store because of my part-time job.”

“Don’t expect the mindset of a boss from a part-time worker.”

Yulgeum uttered a word and looked at Scatul.

He was smiling brightly and imitating a good person.

No, to be exact, it wasn’t a person. Because they were fairies with pointed ears.

“It’s called Scatul.”

“It’s Yulgeum.”

“ah! Mr. Yulgeum. “It’s an unusual name.”

“Would it be more unusual than a fairy? However, it is rare for a fairy to leave the Horsetail Forest and find a job in the human world…

“There are some circumstances.”

“circumstances?”

“Actually, it’s because of the dragon.”

Yulgeum spit out the alcohol he had just put in his mouth.

Deus, who was sitting right next to me, dodged with a drinking glass and chopsticks.

“Oh, so dirty.”

“sorry.”

Yulgeum wiped the table and looked at Scatul.

“Dragons… I don’t think dragons live there.”

“you’re right. It was just like that until not long ago. But… something happened recently, dragons

took over the forest and started attacking fairies.”

“They seem like crazy dragons.”

“It didn’t seem crazy. No, rather, they are gaining power by occupying bases as if they were conducting some kind of military operation. “It’s like creating a kingdom.”

“That’s… rare.”

Yulgeum frowned and tilted his head.

It’s only been a few months since I transformed into a human, so what on earth is going on?

The dragon race stays in the realm and

only appears in the human world in very limited cases.

Most of them had changed into human form.

“That’s an interesting story.”

Deus crossed his arms.

“We fairies have established an exclusive civilization with the human world, so this story has not yet spread to the human world. Anyway, that’s why I left my hometown and came here.”

“Zeke.”

“Yes, Deus.”

“What do you think?”

“Shouldn’t we help?”

“why?”

“That’s right… he’s a hero.”

“yes?”

“yes.”

“Then pack your bags. “Let’s leave tomorrow.”

” ancient.”

“Hey, butler.”

“Yes, master.”

“I need to be a guide. “I have to go deal with the dragons who are said to be occupying the fairy forest.”

“All right. But what about the store? “I haven’t learned anything about work yet

.”

“are you okay. “The remaining guys did well together.”

“master.”

“huh?”

“This is a fundamental question… do you really need a deacon?”

“Of course it is necessary. Otherwise, there’s no one to call when I need to do something. Oh, this butler. Get some water. “Like this.”

“Isn’t that an errand boy, not a butler?”

“Isn’t that what it is?”

Scatul grinned.

“If that’s the case, master, then so be it.”

“Good posture. “The former butler was on the fence about everything and didn’t support me even a single word.”

After filling his glass and making a toast, Deus sent everyone away, promising tomorrow morning.

Yulgeum finally says something.

“Anyway, everyone does as they please. Horsetail Forest…

The devil’s whispers leading to the underground kingdom of Malkut were located at the bottom of the Horse continent.

And Horsetail Forest, where the kingdom of fairies was located, was located on a long peninsula extending northeast from there.

In Horsetail, where gentle hills rise like waves, a huge coniferous forest was spread out.

The size of the forest was large, but the trees, hundreds of years old, were well maintained, creating a spectacle that could not be seen anywhere else on the continent.

Fairies loved the forest.

They considered taking good care of forests as the greatest virtue, and

maintained national wealth by exporting well-managed timber and its by-products and crafts.

Although it was relatively peaceful, it was also skilled in war due to its nimble movements and a magic system based on an extensive understanding of spirits.

No country has ever crossed Horsetail’s borders. Peace continued for tens of thousands of years.

“Deacon.”

Skatul turned his head from his coach seat and looked at Deus.

“Yes, master.”

“A warrior helps others with good intentions, but not me.”

“I know.”

“You do the collecting.”

“Don’t worry. “If you negotiate with the village chiefs, you can get quite a bit of money.”

“Good good. “Until yesterday, this was your homeland, but now you are a bigot holding a money bag.”

Yulgeum said something to Deus.

“Just take it in moderation. Why are you turning a normal person into a professional traitor?”

“When you work for me, you have to sacrifice your life for me.”

“You hire me for just half a gold coin and expect my life? “It’s as shameless

as it gets.”

Deus listened to her words with one ear and spoke to Skathul again.

“That’s because the guy who could explain things without asking has disappeared, so why did the dragons suddenly establish something like a kingdom?”

“We don’t know that yet. “Not long ago, nine dragons suddenly appeared and demanded submission to the fairy kingdom.”

“Nine?”

“yes. Their leader is a blue dragon called Okta.” Deus

looked at

Yulgeum at the name Okta .

She nodded slowly.

Dragons of the Twelve Months.

It was the name of one of the twelve dragons who led the Ganggyeong faction along with Genet and Julie Agusta.

“Twelve minus three is nine. “I’m saying it’s not a coincidence.”

“Is there anything you can point out?”

“Well, it looks like the dragons have their own circumstances. I thought they were united around the Dragon God, but some of them are openly rebelling against what the Dragon God says.”
