5. Adjusting the equipment (2)

Next to me, two people who appeared to be a couple were eating noodles.

When I glanced at the menu, I saw somen with vegetables mixed in eggs and toppings. Warm steam was rising from the homemade soup.

“What kind of business is this all of a sudden?”

Zeke grinned as he stir-fried vegetables.

“I feel sorry for the empty land. “ I also

have to earn pocket money.”

“Is it because you don’t have enough money? “I think the compensation was reasonable.”

“Just because you have deep pockets right now doesn’t mean you can’t not prepare for tomorrow.”

“You’ve grown up.”

“It’s not that big of a deal, and I have some debt. “Here we go!”

Zeke put somen in anchovy broth, topped with toppings, and placed it in front of Deus.

Deus looked at him. In the background

, there was a sign

that resembled the shape of a dragon .

Where the dragon fell.

A warrior sells rolled noodles in front of him.

Many symbols come together to create a funny combination.

Deus burst out laughing and scooped up a chopstick of noodles.

At that time, one of the couples next to me suddenly screamed.

“What’s this! “Why are there flies in the soup!”

“yes? “It can’t be!”

“Are you saying I’m lying?

“Look at this.”

“Sir, there are no flies like this around here. “This is a fly you only see in the forest.”

“So you’re saying I added it on purpose?”

“That’s not it…

“You bastard, do you know who’s in charge of this street? “If my dad says one word, you’ll have to close the business immediately!”

“Sorry, sir. “But I even wear a mask to prepare clean food.”

“You wait here. “I’ll throw you in jail right away.”

A woman grabbed his sleeve next to an excited man.

“Oppa, stop it. There’s no need to deal with a guy like this. So, I told you to go to the store on the main street.”

“Stay still. This guy needs to change his habits. Tell your parents to come out. “Where are the parents, leaving their children to bury their children?”

Zeke gritted his teeth.

The man twisted his lips at that sight.

“I guess you don’t want to get your parents criticized? The life of a bastard like you is obvious. “Your dad is probably an alcoholic, and your mom wants to go out to a bar somewhere?”

Zeke’s fist trembled.

Deus drank the noodle soup with a slurping sound and put the bowl down on the table.

I already ate it all. It was so delicious that not a single noodle was left behind.

“Don’t tolerate it little boy. “I will take responsibility for what happens next.”

“no. Since I sold the food, I have to take responsibility.”

Zeke took a deep breath and lowered his head.

“Sorry, sir. I won’t accept any money. “I’ll give you a new bowl if you want.”

“Of course you shouldn’t accept money. What will I do to my stomach after eating the soup with flies swimming in it? “I think I’ll calm down if I give you at least 1 gold.”

“I don’t have that much money.”

“If you don’t have it, borrow it and pay it back.”

At that moment, Deus kicked the chair next to him.

The man who was yelling

lost his balance and fell backwards.

The woman screamed as her body was soaked in the soup.

“Aaaah! what’s this! “My bag!”

The man who had fainted suddenly stood up and grabbed Deus by the collar.

At that moment, I made eye contact with Deus.

What was in his eyes was a flame of fear and a curse from the abyss.

The moment they met, the man froze and even forgot to breathe.

“go away. “A person who has lost respect for a warrior is not worthy of existence.”

“Yo hero?”

“Take a good look at this boy. This is Zeke from the Holly Beach family. “You’d better not forget.”

The word ‘warrior’ seemed to sting.

No matter how much they have declined, a hero is a hero.

Just maintaining the neighborhood was not something that could be tackled.

The man immediately turned around and walked towards the other side of the alley. The woman chased after the man, wiping the soup-soaked bag with an annoyed look on her face.

Deus said while looking at Alex.

“Noodle price.”

Zeke waved his hand.

“No, how could I…

“You say you’re paying rent? Then you have to pay for the noodles too. Do good business. “I have to send my younger siblings to school.”

“yes yes! Deus.”

“Once you open a store, don’t neglect work at the store.”

“yes! thank you!”

Deus looked far across the alley.

It’s not just the Demon World that’s been twisted.

If the victim who fights the devil on behalf of humanity is a hero,

how is it possible to treat him with such disdain?

Demons, humans and dragons.

All three worlds were distorted.

“Is it a coincidence? Or…

“You mean that guy from earlier? Aren’t you just a simple asshole? Shall we chase after him?”

“no. “Let’s even look at Yulgeum’s items.”

“Yes, my lord. “This way.”

Deus passed the yard where the sign for the place where the dragon fell stood and walked towards the main house. A large

carriage was stopped

beyond the large arched door .

30 sets of armor, over 100 weapons, and even magical accessories.

These were products worth 1,000 gold based on sales price.

“How is the condition of the item?”

“It’s the best product.”

“Is it better than the one from the demon world?”

“Some do. “These short charcoal workers are the best blacksmiths in the world.”

“But you’re on no one’s side.”

“Yes, they are building their own kingdom by digging for gems and ores deep underground. “They are just greedy people who will do anyone’s favor as long as they give them money.”

“Why are you greedy when you work for money? So you work without getting paid? “Isn’t that passion pay or something?”

“I’m already doing that.”

“You have a green stick.”

“As a duke… wasn’t he already fired?”

“When was it cut?”

“The lord cut it himself.”

“Let’s skip the little things. Well, if it’s okay with you, it’s probably a good thing.”

Deus glanced at the luggage in the carriage and also glanced inside the commercial building.

“Well, that’s enough… It’s business, so you’re going to do it anyway.”

“What about you, my lord?”

“Are you really telling me to work?”

“Aren’t you in the top 2%?”

“I will. But I have no intention of working and sweating myself.”

“Wow, do you know that that statement seems really problematic?”

“What do you know? “What’s important is that I play, eat, and lead a top-two professional life.”

“If that’s the case, go back to the demon world. “Can’t we play and eat and occupy the place of supreme authority?”

“Don’t try to persuade me subtly.”

With these words, Deus finished his inspection and came out.

I glanced at Zeke, who was busy doing business, and walked straight toward the hotel.

It was just when I turned down an alley.

Six or seven large figures were blocking the road.

At the front of the group was the man who had started the fight at Zeke’s noodle stand earlier.

He said, glaring at Deus with a twisted smile.

“When I think back and think about it. You shouldn’t touch a hero, but not you, right? Did you say Deus? Is this Alex? “I don’t know where he is from as an adventurer, but seeing as he is a colleague of a third-rate contractor, he must be a piece of trash.”

Deus

looked at him without any change in expression.

“Why were you scared? Why don’t you just talk like before? These are the private security guards our family has. The adventurer Naburaengi dares to attack a nobleman? Go Jackson Smith!”

“Yes, master!”

Two rugged men clenched their fists and turned their necks, making a clanking sound.

He walked in front of Deus with an intimidating look on his face and swung his fist wide, making a threat.

“Oh, you little bastard. “If I crumple it up,

you’ll cry like a girl, right?”

That moment.

puck. Take a picture.

Something collapsed on the floor and exploded, leaving a trace of blood.

The sound of popping a fly by pressing it with your hand echoed through the street, and a trace that was not much different from that was left on the street.

” uh?”

The other person, who didn’t know whether it was Jackson or Smith, looked at Deus in astonishment.

Immediately after that, another blood stain was left on the street.

Blood splattered everywhere as if it had burst, leaving numerous red dots on the wall.

“Go for the next guy.”

Deus suddenly said something.

“This bastard is talking about people…

Master started to gag while talking.

It seemed like he was finally understanding the situation.

What is that bright red piece of meat scattered on the floor?

I don’t know where the sound of the explosion came from, but it has quickly become a reality.

” next?”

Deus looked at the men around him with sad eyes.

It was a private security site and a neighborhood fist gang.

It seemed like he usually had plenty of money to use when he needed it.

Even though the gang was dead and turned into a blood stain, they were not the kind of people with a big heart to attack.

After looking at each other, they ran away like the tide, and the only one left was you.

He looked left and right alternately.

Deus snorted at the pitiful appearance.

He made a pistol shape with his hand and mouthed the word ‘Bang!’

The master’s legs were shaking. Yellow water flowed and wetted my pants.

Deus passed by him and walked to the other side of the alley.

“Weren’t you trying not to stand out?”

Alex asked on the way to the hotel.

“what?”

“Being an arms dealer in a small town like this.”

“Oh, right. It shouldn’t stick out. “To live as a human being.”

“Did you jump out a little while ago?”

“what?”

“Something like this.”

“What’s so crazy about that? “Did I burn down an entire city and melt it down? Did I reduce a country to a single point?”

“That’s what I heard.”

“Neighborhood gangsters

were born to die. “If it wasn’t me, it would have been someone like a warrior’s companion or a warrior, or something like that would have stabbed him to death.”

“Isn’t that too much of a leap?”

“Is it a reasonable inference? lets think. “I don’t know if the fly really fell out or if Ji picked it up to start an argument, but he ended up mobilizing a gangster to try and mess with me just because a fly got into the noodles, right?”

“There are some parts that don’t come off cleanly, but the general rule is the same.”

“I killed him by crushing him with my magic spirit, but an ordinary hero

would have killed him by stabbing him with a sword or a spear or something like that. “You die one way or another, but the method is a little different. In the end, you are destined to die.”

“It’s persuasive.”

“If you have time to argue with the owner, go and find evidence of the blue dragon. “If it wasn’t Hollyfer, which bastard took the dragon?”

“It is clearly a violation of the armistice agreement in that you touched a unconscious dragon, that is, a living dragon.”

“Shall we try the hollypher again?”

“My lord.”

“why? butler.”

“The warrior family is not just Holifer.”

“I guess so.”

“Just around here, there is a family of D-class warriors like the Holy Seeders.”

“Holy Seeder? “Cedar?”

“yes.”

“Then why didn’t you go there first?”

“That’s right, my lord…

“You’re all good, but you have too many excuses.”

“Oh yeah. Is it possible? “Then do you want to go right now?”

“Let’s go tomorrow. “I’ll go and get Zeke ready too

.”

“Are you planning on doing it like last time?”

“huh.”

“At this rate, I will equip you with a full set of Blue Dragon equipment.”

“If your skills are poor, you should at least have good equipment. After the shield, the sword is of course the best.”

“Would you like it?”
