Demon King
Chapter 111 Dwarves [2]

Dwarf. It was a term that referred to the dwarf race, commonly found in fantasy novels. They are known to live deep in the mountains and are renowned for their excellent metal handling skills. When Earth and Hater are connected for the first time, the dwarves become known to humans like the elves.

“But after Great Fusion, the appearance of their pair between elves and dwarves could not be confirmed. Elves appear as humanitarian advisers and advocates, but not as peers. The dwarves, and other intelligent races, had kept themselves a secret. ” Jia Han, the middle school girl who was a little depressed from not hearing the news about the fallen goblins, told me this.

“So the dwarf that appeared this time is not unusual. Were any of them human in the past, or were they like elves? I need to know why they're showing up now, and how this is related to the dungeon plague. ” Erkindra's thoughts on the matter are clear. They were only worried about how the dwarves were accepted by mankind. If there was someone among them who had once been a human, it would be even more complicated.

Will they be accepted into the new human society? If that happens, it won't continue. They will get a companion to fight against the threat of the elves, and the dwarves will do it too. Elakatra viewed everything other than themselves as disposable; the dwarf race was no exception. But if humans can't accept them, I want to believe that it won't happen, but it's hard, given how I've seen the way they treat the fallen.

‘No.’ I think it would be outrageous. It is too different to compare them to the ones that fall.

“Should we add speed?”

“More than this?” I stopped running down an empty mountain road. When Cain's footsteps stopped, everything became silent. I activated my Belkena Mantra, making us all invisible. After that, I activated the Lunatic Trickster to set a trap that would spread the effect to the people around us when magic or skill was activated.

“Go.” With Ubiquitous, the surroundings changed in an instant. Thanks to that trap, we were all able to move together.

“What is it?!”

“It's magical. Continue.” Although it had improved, moving more than three kilometers at once was too difficult. Going from Seongbuk-gu to Incheon requires twenty-eight Ubiquitous uses.

“Uh, how is this possible? We only need three minutes.. ”.

“I know. Go.” We were only at the entrance of Namdong-gu, Incheon, but I could already feel the extreme flow of mana. I looked back, but no one else noticed.

Kain, I'm sorry, but I want to ask for help.

[Soliciting. My desire will move according to the wishes of the captain.]

“...” Jia Han stared at Kain, the gears spinning on his head.

“I didn't pay much attention to it, but it was Cain Russell, right..?”

“Iya.” Perhaps he has also received a request from my sister to investigate how we treated Cain. Maybe he was trying to justify how I used my power to save the fallen. However, for the honor and pure heart of Jia Han, I decided not to show that I knew of his secret mission.

“So, you said you were fed up!” A rough crack filled the air, two minutes after we continued our journey.

We're not hostile to you.

“What are you talking about? They are the underground dwellers, a crime to be exterminated. ” I know the owner of the voice immediately. It must be Elakatra. Mireina also noticed it, touching her ears anxiously.

“What if they scold me? They're scary. ”

They are enemies, but we will take care of them.

“If Fate says so, then it must be true.” If only those with peaceful minds like Mireina were more common among the elves, things would be much easier. I breathed and accelerated my pace. At first glance, it was shocking to see that the situation had yet to explode.

“Hm..”

“Outstanding.” The surprise from Elakatra was natural. We arrived at the scene, landing on an uninterrupted empty spot among the gathered people. It seems to have originally had a large department store that had collapsed.

“Who are you?”

Rebellion guild, from Seoul, Seongbuk-gu.

“Seongbuk-gu? It will take at least twenty minutes.. ”It looks like Erkindra's information handling ability has reached a special level. After all, it was a worthy alliance.

“Leaving. What happened in Incheon will be resolved here. ”

“No.” There were two Elakatra here, followed by hundreds of people. In the middle of them are dwarves. They were exactly as I had read, probably only about a metre high, with arms covered in thick muscle. They are also fairly armed.

“Did you say you were Rebellion?” The younger-looking male Elakatra spoke up, wearing the same red scarf. Her clothes were more like a merchant than a soldier, but I instinctively noticed that she was disguised. It was meant to give humans a sense of comfort, the idea that they could trust the help of this man.

“I've heard of you. You tamed the fallen, right? ”

“You are very beautiful. Humans sometimes surprise us, they have countless possibilities. ” I wonder if this is a game to attract humans, but it does not seem to be the case. Her voice is sincere. He honestly believed in human possibilities, which is why he hated it. It scares them. Cain and I could sense which one was changing according to his emotions, showing hostility.

Who are you again? This time, a dwarf spoke up. The oldest apparition among them, a middle-aged dwarf leading the way, was staring straight at me. However, before I could reply, the humans who felt they had been deprived of the initiative came out — in particular, the people who came from the guild here in Incheon.

[Kawoooo.]

Cain shouted loudly as if he had succumbed to his anger, extending his fist forward just a little. The effect was good, however, as none of those gathered here had reached the higher system. No man here can match the strength of Cain. Even now, humans know that they are afraid of a power they cannot hold.

“I should have arrived here sooner..”.

“How did you come so fast? Have you mastered that magic level? ”

“Seongbuk-gu... nobody should have been here from there yet, but these Rebel people?” Humans clicked their tongues, realizing that this monster was under my control. Of course, they did not retreat completely.

“I ran away as soon as I heard the dwarves appear, but what is this?” I broke into the core of the situation, playing the best hand I had.

“I will explain. Dwarves are underground dwellers, which means they come from the same place as monsters. ”

This fairy said some disturbing things. The dwarf, who was still looking at me, seemed to have a bit of a temper. I decided to be frank.

Are you human?

“I have said that I am an Earthling over and over again! Call Mikhail, he knows! ”

This is Korea.

“I've heard it!” The place was a mess. I've forgotten about the existence of dwarves. After all, over 99% of Earthling is connected to humans from Hater, and most of the remaining 1% is connected to elves.

“It's a lie. In Great Fusion, Hater is conquered by Earth. All Earthlings are synchronized in the place where they were born and raised. These are just smart monsters trying to fool you. ” The purpose of Elakatra is so clear that I can't even laugh. I turned towards the dwarf.

“My name is Fate. What can I call you? ”

“... Alec.”

“Alec, do you know the total number of dwarves?”

“How do I know? When I opened my eyes, I was in a small village. The only thing I know is my partner is here. ”

“But now, another dwarf appears in a world other than yourself.”

“Their number is at least.”.

“Sst.” I disconnected Elakatra from speaking, which seemed pleasant by the guild in Incheon. It was easy to see who was in charge here until I showed up.

“I saw.”

“Hopefully, we can form an alliance ..” I ignore humans as well. Nothing moves, but tension appears just below the surface. It only takes one spark to ignite it. The fabric did its best to suppress everything with its frightening size. It was a funny situation when I thought about it.

“Ah.” The dwarf, Alec, tilted his head and let out a short cry.

“I feel underground opening. We got out of there, so maybe the same thing happened with someone else. It was a huge gap, as if someone was knocking down a wall. The land we could not reach before was open to us. ” I laugh. The dwarves, who were not even aware of it, seemed to have been affected by the expansion of my territory last night. Lee Chan-yu secretly sent me a message with an awkward smile.

[Captain, underground battlefield.]

[Yes]

I sighed and looked up, seeing a huge plane hovering above us.

It was the appearance of the One Flag guild, the last one to arrive on this stage.
