I Obtained a Mythic Item

Chapter 368. Engraving (3)

King of the Dwarves.

Daren's throne room was not too far from the entrance.

Even though it was the kingdom of the dwarves in the first place, it was unavoidable because it possessed only a small part of Svartal Fame.

Jaehyun did not kneel or lower his head while looking at Daren.

He decided that he had come to help them as an opponent anyway, so there was no reason to take a low profile.

Actually, that judgment was right.

“I am Darren, King of the Dwarves. I heard that you are the adversary recognized by the anti-Aesir faction.”

He didn't feel disrespectful at Jae-hyun's attitude at all and took his luck like that.

I doubted that maybe the black-haired sole had said that all human manners are like that.

‘Come to think of it, should I run to the king as well?'

Jaehyun nodded his head moderately, thinking about such a foolish thought.

“okay. I am the enemy. Well, that's what they call it on their own.”

“So what you want from me is engraving?”

“okay. As you dwarves already know, Odin is on the move. I need your strength...”

“I can't allow that.”

Jaehyun's eyebrows rose subtly.

Maybe this dwarf needs to be beaten to come to his senses.

I can feel that thought slowly rising from the end of the danjeon.

“Why?”

“Because there is no certainty that we will win this war.”

At Daren's words, Jaehyun's breath suddenly became tight. It was the same with Hella.

“Darren. Do you know what you are talking about?”

“Of course. Hell's alter ego. Long time no see.”

“I don't think it's time to say hello.”

Hella's answer was cold.

of course. You can't accept an offer like that without a hitch.

I doubted whether I knew what the situation was like or not.

“Tell me why you can’t engrave me.”

Jaehyun had no choice but to say that while opening his magic. I had the idea of at least a moderate armed demonstration if necessary.

I used that method when I persuaded Lars in the elves' kingdom in the past.

Sometimes when it comes to persuading others, nothing is more certain than force.

“No matter how it comes out, I can listen to your proposal...”

“Reason.”

Jaehyun rolled on the ground with a bang. The ground vibrated and a roar poured out.

Darren sighed at Jaehyun's high-handed attitude and said,

“……I’ll be honest. I'm afraid of Odin. And… also because I can't trust you.”

Hella's expression hardened for a moment.

Darren was on.

“Even 10,000 years ago, you said that. You will definitely win the war, so ask for the power of crafting equipment and engraving. If you do that, you will surely destroy Asgard. But how did it turn out?”

“So you’re going to sit down before you even try?”

To put it in perspective, the story was similar to what Smir had said at the beginning.

At that time, he witnessed the death of his father, Hrungnir, right in front of his eyes. The shock knocked me down and I didn't want to get up again.

However, Jaehyun showed his potential there.

At that time, it was only a speck of hope, but now Smir completely believed in reappearance. I felt like I had to go through that process again.

If you prove yourself, the dwarf in front will also think about reappearing again.

Jaehyun said with a calm voice.

“I was also recognized by that stubborn giant, Smir. Why don't you try believing at least once? I don't think it's a business to lose money.”

“It's something even Loki couldn't do. What more could a weak human being do?”

Daren was wise. Unlike Blackfoot, he wasn't stupid.

The proof was that the name was normal.

Jaehyun thought for a moment.

‘What should I do? Should it be suppressed by force? ......but that method should only be used in the worst case. If I do that, I'll end up doing the same thing as Odin.'

Their fears are understandable.

Dwarves were weak in the first place, but they supported the anti-Aesir forces 10,000 years ago.

But that turned out to be a failure.

Also, the hellish war made them lose their place of life. It made them hide deeper from the attacks of the Dark Elves.

Therefore, it is a fact that they have no choice but to feel natural fear.

In fact, I thought that if you stay underground for a long time like this, everyone will inevitably become more timid.

Jaehyun asked, crossing his arms at Daren's stubborn attitude.

“How am I going to believe you?”

“What are you talking about?”

“I'm asking how you can trust me and lend me the power of the dwarves.”

“...that's something no human could ever do.”

Jaehyun laughed.

“Because I decided to set my own limits like that. Isn't that why you're stuck in such a narrow pit like this?” “dare...! Do you dishonor our compatriots who died in blood because of you...!!”

The king's eyes begin to glow and burn.

He was weak, but even so, he was not so weak at heart that he put up with the criticism of the previous kings and his own people.

The reappearance was on and on.

“I want you to know. As you said, I am human. It wasn't long before I got the rank. The war of 10,000 years ago is none of my business.”

Actually, that was a lie.

Jaehyun has seen countless deaths so far. The countless lives that were lost 10,000 years ago.

It was pitiful, and at times, I felt myself weak and suffered from insomnia in constant pain.

But that's no reason to hold yourself accountable.

Because at the time, reproduction did not exist.

It was only natural that he would not take any responsibility for the past war. Do you hear stories like that in those circumstances?

Considering Jaehyun's usual personality, this was a story that could never be overlooked.

He was with a cold smile.

“What have I to do with the filthy weakness of the Van Aesir bastards during the first war? I'm just asking you as an individual of mine. How can you trust me?”

“.......”

Darren closed his eyes and was silent for a moment. His long beard hangs down.

Actually he knew. How strong the human being in front of me is. Isn't that the opponent who destroyed the rare masterpiece he created just a moment ago?

Also, if it is enough to destroy your own weapon, you have to go far beyond at least the 3rd stage of liberation. Perhaps the adversary has surpassed that realm.

That's because it's less than a year in a human body.

It might be worth believing a little bit. It was the same with the artifacts worn on the body.

That alone was proving that he was strong enough to look at.

Also, no matter how dwarves are stuck in the tunnel, Thor's two sons. I had heard that Modi and Magni were dead.

It was also the same that it was the enemy who killed him.

“What can you do?”

“I won’t be able to kill Odin right now… but yes. The rest will do whatever you want.”

Jaehyun said that with a confident face. His expression was unstoppable, as if there was not even an inch of lies.

“good night. Make one bet.”

“bet?”

“If you bring back the lost land of the dwarves, I will help you. I will believe you again. How is it?”

“...If it's a land of dwarves...”

Seo Ina muttered softly. Hella answered her question.

“Svartal Fame... It's a story to bring back all of that place. That's too much to ask for.”

she bit her lip.

The Dark Elves were the ones who were currently at the highest level in Svartal Fame. In the past, Jaehyun had killed one of the nine kings, but...

he was only one of the nine kings.

Kings get stronger as you go up, and King 1 was almost at the level of reaching the 3rd stage of liberation.

Hella could hardly understand Daren's intentions, telling her to deal with such an enemy at a time when time was urgent.

However, Jaehyun was calm.

“You take back the land, and we borrow your strength... Well, it sounds like a good contract with each other. What do you guys think?”

“...I will be your strength whenever you go.”

Seo Ina was the first to answer. Other co-workers nodded as well.

Kim Yu-jung crossed her arms and said.

“Because I can't help it. Well… it would be better for us to go together than you go alone.”

“okay. Then I will do that. You won't change Darren's words, will you?”

At Jaehyun's words, Daren nodded.

“As the king of the dwarves, and in the name of our ancestors, I will accept this bet. And if you succeed, I swear to be loyal to you until the end of the war.”

“I don’t need loyalty.”

He shrugged his shoulders and said so, then quickly kicked off the seat. There was no hesitation in his movement when he turned around.

I figured it would be like this anyway.

It was because they thought that the dwarves would not accept their request without any conditions.

It would be nice if I could eat even a little bit raw, but I can't help it.

However, even though it was annoying for Jaehyun, he wasn't worried at all.

Dark elves in the past had dealt with them and had titles that could be used. In addition, his colleagues also gained divinity and their level was quite high.

At that time, the enemies of about 9 kings would not have been difficult to deal with individually, except for Lee Jae-sang.

“…Wait a minute.”

The moment Jaehyun turned around like that. Daren summoned Jaehyun for a moment.

* * *

Looking at the adversary in front of his eyes, Darren recalled a past hidden deep within his heart. It was a story about his family and ancestors a long time ago.

The former king of the dwarves.

There was a man called Kurin.

Naturally, he was courageous and extremely averse to betraying his faith. So he joined Van ?sir and died.

He lost his life along with his compatriots while fighting to defend his beliefs.

Daren has been growing up hearing stories about this since childhood.

Never stand on the side of the weak who are not strong. It will only kill your own people.

If you want to be king, think of nothing other than the safety of your people.

Daren was cowardly, but he thought he was right.

It was because the previous generation was overpowered by the enemy so easily that it was embarrassing and died.

Because their land was taken away by the Dark Elves.

But... why?

The adversary in front of him was the one he wanted to believe.

He believes in himself and moves forward without hesitation.

In fact, they are the weakest race, humans.

Darren thought.

No matter how extraordinary talent he had, it would have taken his own hard work and a hellish forging process to become as strong as he is now.

He would have endured the pain by continuously knocking on himself, like pouring molten iron and knocking on a shaped piece of equipment.

Thanks to that, it must have been able to become a well-forged sword like it is now.

After thinking for a while, Daren made a decision. to try him out.

I decided to make sure that I was the one who could really keep my word.

“...Since you received my request, I will give you an advance payment.”

“Advance payment?”

“okay. Take out your most used weapon and show it to me. I will show you my engraving technique.”

Jaehyun's eyes widened. It was because he did not know that he would be able to obtain the imprint of a weapon in this way.

he already knew That Daren just wanted to test himself.

However, there was no reason to avoid it. In any case, it was good for Jaehyun.

He pondered for a while, then took out an artifact and put it down in front of Daren.

This was an artifact completely different from what my colleagues expected.

They groaned in bewilderment.

“...why do you have to do that out of many things...?”

At the words of his colleagues, Jaehyun gave a light smile.
