Chapter 331 – Village (6)
When morning came to the hole-in-the-hole mountain range, the dwarves finished guarding the mines and huddled together in the sunlit shadows to rest. It was because a strong wind blew from the sea where the hole was pierced. They used to gather in the shadows of the holes in the mines, sip a cup of well-brewed coffee, and soak up the sunlight penetrating the mountains.
The scenery in front of the magic stone mine was quite different. Adventurers and merchants who came on the rough Dwarven road ran into the shade to head to the retail stores lined up in front of the magic stone mine. They enjoyed a moderate rest in the shade with their backs from the sun, and enjoyed playing with the tongues of the dwarven merchants.
The scenery that morning was like this. People poked their heads down the mountain range in search of an open market in the shade. The door to the magic stone mine was firmly closed today, blocking the entry and exit of merchants who were trying to rub the possibilities.
Thump thump
Even when they heard a heavy knock from inside the mine, they also thought it was an escaped worker struggling for freedom. The guards yawned and imitated the workers knocking on the door. The desperation of others was originally good to use as a joke.
The strangers on the other side of the door felt the noise ominous, but the guards stroked their long beards and said:
“Don’t worry and look at things! Because it happens sometimes.”
Then, the adventurers who did not want to lose to others leisurely watched the goods while pretending to be relieved and bluffing. But the pounding in their ears was getting louder and louder.
Thump thump thump thump
The faces of the Dwarf guards, who had been smiling as if they were normal, were gradually hardening. It wasn’t the sound of one person knocking on an iron door. Dozens of people. Perhaps all the workers stuck in the mine were knocking on the iron door and shouting.
Thump thump thump thump thump thump thump
The noise came like a tidal wave. The dwarves looked at each other in contemplation. There was no manual on how to do this. Screams and uneasiness in this place. And they were the only ones who had to take responsibility for the situation. The chief of the guards left the job to his subordinates today and was drinking at a bar a short distance away.
Thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump
“Help me! Help me!!”
“Open it! Please open it! A monster appeared! It is a monster!”
A scream was heard from beyond the door. The guards were certain. This was not the usual escape of workers. Something even more serious and terrifying was happening inside the mine. One of the guards hurriedly pulled the lever at the sound of forcibly breaking the door. It was a device that lowered the second iron door. Another guard hurried down to call the captain of the guard.
People also started to move in the situation that suddenly changed. The man who had been looking at her equipment while raising the corners of her mouth pretending to be calm a moment ago hurriedly packed her things and ran away. The travelers who came to see the Dwarven Mine naturally tried to get out of the wagon by turning around. A merchant who came to visit with goods without knowing why suddenly shouted at the bottleneck that occurred on the road.
The guard waddled on his short legs and ran towards the tavern eagerly. The chief of the guards, who was drinking alcohol with a red face, frowned at the guards who had come to visit him without performing his duties.
“Mark! What did I say? I? Uh! Stir! Get your guard straight! Knock! I told you to do it right away… Ah! Men and horses! Uh? If you don’t keep it. .. …!Dwarf workers…!Uh!Just come out!”
“Captain! It’s a big deal! Workers in…”
“Workers? What?”
The guard’s face contorted. It wasn’t because the guard’s words were too close. It was because the manastone mine behind the guard exploded with bright flames. The double iron gates shattered and rained steel in all directions.
The tavern owner’s body was cut in half by a door that flew through the tavern’s roof. The window of the captain of the guard who had been thrown away drunk was smashed.
“What, what!”
In the eyes of the guard captain, he saw chunks of meat flying in the sky. He thought he was drunk and seeing his hallucinations. I could see Elson’s head saying that he is a father of two and works hard for his son. I saw the shoes of Jefferson, who had jumped into magic stone mining because he was plagued by gambling debt. I saw Helmut’s body his, which had come flying like his bullets his and was stuck in the tavern. He could tell because he always wore the same shirt.
Subsequently, the aftermath of the explosion became the wind and swept the tavern. Countless fragments of ore were hitting the tavern like a machine gun. Not only the tavern, but the entire city surrounding the magic stone mine was raining debris. The shrapnel that pierced the guard commander’s armor landed on the floor. Before he could even feel the pain, shards of glass and steel passed through the entire body of the guard commander.
I hugged his tattered body, but blood trickled out like a barrel of wine pierced through the cracks in his armor. The captain of the guard fell from his chair and looked to the side. Beside him lay a chunk of meat dressed in the same armor as him. The guard commander couldn’t understand. What happened? Why did this happen?
Blood gushed out like a fountain from the protruding belly. The head of the guards was dizzy. He waved his hand in the air, hoping someone would help him. The sound of his feet dragging was heard in the distance. Then the walls of the tavern were broken and people’s voices were heard.
“Help… Help…”
The commander of the guard died before finishing his words. He stretched his arms on his floor and rolled his eyes as he bit into the foam of his blood. The floor was soaked.
Theo Terre ran his hand roughly across the tavern table. She had no mercy in her touch. The shards of glass and iron doors that hit her hand were ripped away like sheets of paper. The bloody fragments were flattened as if they were decorations originally attached to the table. She sat down in her chair and looked for the tavern owner.
However, the owner was already stuck in the wall like a dartboard, only shaking his legs. A.A. Shook her head, and Lucius clicked his tongue. One of her kicks her was enough for Theo Terre to destroy the Manastone Mine. All the workers who had been infesting the iron gate like worms turned to mush and died with one kick.
Doors that could not withstand the wind pressure were smashed by the kick, and the aftermath swept through the village in front of the mine. Theoter looked around, sighed, and started rummaging through the tavern himself. All the drinks served on her table had long since been destroyed, but many were intact in the cellar in the basement. She went down the stairs to the basement of the pub and brought her a full bottle of wine.
Then he opened a bottle, blew on the bottle, and started whimpering.
“Bad guys… Seriously, I thought you were a friend.”
“Ooh, we are there. Mr. Theoter.”
“Right. Mr Theoter. We, Artie and Dagon’s friends, will be your friends.”
Ay Ay started to soothe her by her sio ter her side her. Lucius also hurriedly came to her side of her and began to appease her. From what I’ve seen so far, Theoter has been nothing more than a powder keg. When he loses his temper and starts rampaging more, the aftermath does not end with the Dwarf Kingdom alone.
“Dagon? You guys, have you met Dagon too?”
“Yes. You were a very kind and lovely person. He also gave us this weapon.”
“Huh… That’s right, this… It’s a magical thing. Are you really going to be my friend? Huh? You won’t betray like the dwarves, right?”
“Yes. Absolutely. We are always on your side Mr. Theoter.”
“Really? Are you really not going to betray me?”
Theoter asked again, whimpering. A.A and Lucius did n’t even look at each other’s eyes and at the same time he held her hand tightly and said.
“Absolutely.”
“Sigh… Dwarf… Bad guys…”
Theoter sniffed again and started pouring the drink out of the bottle. Drinking alcohol between 50 and 60 degrees without hesitation, she continued to get irritated. I saw Dwarves from other villages in the distance come to see the scene and quickly run away. Theo Terre tossed her bottle from which she was drinking as soon as her dwarves came into her sight.
Theoter threw the bottle as hard as he could, and a beat later, Lucius heard the sound of a gong. At the same time, a strong wind chased the bottle with an aftershock. Turning over on the ground, she pursued the dwarf’s corpse, which had already been shattered by disease, and turned it into powder. She looked at her blood fog with fierce eyes and drank another bottle of alcohol.
“I… Mr. Theoter?”
“What’s the matter?”
“Ho, are you going to destroy the Dwarven Kingdom like this?”
Lucius asked. There was a bit of anxiety in his question. She said, shaking her head.
“I would love to, but… I can’t go any further than this. I have a promise.”
Another promise came out. Promises to restrict movement. The story of the promise that Lucius and A.A. Both really wanted to hear came out here. Lucius asked.
“What kind of promise is that?”
“I have to get permission from the other kids…”
“Artie said it would be better to listen to you.”
Theo Terr looked at Lucius and nodded her head.
“Okay. Then…”
And Theo Terre opened her mouth, but she looked either way. A-A pointed at her army her approaching in the distance. In front of the armed Dwarf soldiers, a Dwarf general wearing luxurious armor rode a wild boar. He was one head taller than the other dwarves, so he could be considered a short human. The Dwarf General shouted.
“Surrender now! You monster! I am the strongest warrior in this dwarven kingdom! It’s Eggbold! If you stop the evil deeds of occupying the magic stone mine even now, I will take this into account… !”
But Eggbold, unable to finish his words, stood abruptly. There was a hole in his brow. Theoter held up a piece of glass and said.
“I am not a monster.”
Egbold collapsed on the floor. The soldiers screamed and checked his condition, but he was already dead. The soldiers who lost their commander all at once were shaking from place to place. Theoter said with a bitter face.
“I was your friend.”
