I Became A Part Time Employee For Gods Chapter 7
#7. Became the leader of the dwarves (2)
Should I be respectful? Should I speak informally? I thought about it for a moment.
‘Still, speaking informally is a bit like that, right?’
Even though he was short, the dwarf had the appearance of a stout old man.
“Don’t touch that.”
I approached calmly and stopped the dwarves.
Fat! Fat!
The inside of the blacksmith shop was very noisy due to the sound of tempering.
Because of this, Damdeok couldn’t understand at all what the dwarves in front of him were muttering.
‘What are you babbling about?’
“Put that down.”
I know this well because I worked part-time as a security guard before.
This means that if you give an easy impression in the beginning, it will become difficult later.
He waved Hercules’ club menacingly and made an appropriate motion.
“Put it down and get out quickly.”
Sure enough,
the two dwarves looked Damdeok up and down and then obediently returned to their original positions.
‘what. ‘It’s similar here and in the human world.’
It may be a bit different to stop muscular dwarves rather than high school girls following idols, but…
I watched the dwarves walking away for a while.
This is to give the impression that I am watching.
‘You’re bolder in stealing than I thought. ‘Should I guard this place since there are a lot of finished products here?’
A space surrounded by a circle.
Damdeok stood in the center and looked towards the furnace.
Actually, there wasn’t much near the furnace, so there wasn’t anything to steal…
The frown quickly narrowed.
‘What is that again?’
Four dwarves who looked just like gangsters were pouring molten iron into a mold and cooling it.
Yeah, that was good.
Aren’t these guys picking up the cooled iron and taking it to their cart?
‘Stealing so blatantly?’
I looked at Hephaestus in bewilderment, but he was engrossed in his work as if he were in another world.
“Oh, I’m going crazy.”
Although it was nothing more than a lump of unrefined iron compared to Zeus’s trident, Hephaestus clearly stated that it was.
The molten iron boiling in the furnace is said to be a special mineral produced only on the island of Limnos (the island where Hephaestus’ forge was located in Greek mythology).
I don’t know what it is, but I guess it means it’s precious.
‘Ah~ The truth is real.’
I approached the cart.
The dwarves were busy wrapping up the stolen iron.
‘No, if you’re going to steal it, do you have to be careful and not show it, or do it half-heartedly?’
“hey.”
As he spoke in a low voice, the dwarves looked back at Damdeok with gentle eyes.
It was absurd.
I’ve clearly seen everything, but what is this…?
“and. Do you see the two people who tried to steal the trident earlier again? “My eyes are open and black… Okay, just put it back in its place right away.”
He lowered his voice as he recalled memories from his part-time job as a security guard, but these little dwarves just looked at Damdeok with an innocent expression that didn’t suit them.
‘…Should I just knock it on?’
It made me feel bad to see a dwarf, who was not a cute fairy but rather a very rough man, looking at me with that expression… A
violent thought crossed my mind for a moment, but it was the first part of my part-time job as a security guard. The rule to avoid causing as much trouble as possible came to mind.
Instead of making a cross and swinging the club, he pointed his finger at Hephaestus.
“Can’t you see that boss over there working hard? Aren’t you sorry? “Quickly put it back in its place and get to work.”
This makes me feel like I’m some kind of evil business owner.
Well, the boss said he could scold me harshly if necessary.
I had planned to send him away early, but the dwarves started arguing among themselves again.
Damdeok’s expression quickly hardened.
This time, I could hear their voices vividly…
– Giggles. Don’t just keep talking~ Don’t~
– That’s right. This guy is so sophisticated!
– The giant that was guarding me every day is gone today. Even the pinch hitter looks very corrupt. Let’s have a nice treat today!
– Hey, did you hear that? Get away from me before I beat you up!
The dwarves showed their true colors, showing that they thought Damdeok was a really good guy.
They each started giggling and took out deadly tools and threatened them, and it looked quite…
believable.
“….”
Even in this situation, Hephaestus was just immersed in a trance.
A laugh escaped me.
‘Is this really why you said there could be a physical fight?’
The phrase written in the notice.
A little struggle?
no. This was a blatant signal to attack and plunder.
“after. “I heard it’s not easy to take other people’s money.”
That’s exactly right.
“Oh yeah. “This is because I am doing my job properly.”
Do you think I’ll be scared if you pick up a weapon?
I don’t know if the dwarf was as big as I imagined, but the guys in front of me were too small.
The absolute rules of fighting weight class.
‘What is this? I don’t think it’s even a fist away.’
As if to lightly warm up, Damdeok swings Hercules’ club! I swung.
The dwarves who were watching that scene snorted as if it was ridiculous.
I still wanted to try it.
A battle against unknown creatures whose weaknesses you have no idea about. How much power can an SS-level talent demonstrate?
“Come here, little guys.”
The dwarves’ eyes suddenly changed at my provocation.
“what? Little boy?!”
“Someone called me a little kid! At best, it’s the lowest level god topic!”
“What do you think of the Dwarven Great Warrior!”
A dwarf holding a hammer left his seat and rushed towards me.
Movement much faster than monsters.
It was surprising that a stocky body could achieve that kind of speed, but…
‘That kind of movement is clearly visible.’
The only S-class skill.
The power of the skill was greater than expected.
Unlike ‘talent’, which requires a certain amount of effort and time, ‘skill’ can generate its own unique power.
Thanks to this, no matter how agile the dwarves attacked, if you just focused your senses, you could easily dodge them.
Kagang! Kang! Kang!
Hammers, saws, knives, scissors flying around like crazy.
Damage was minimized by blocking them all with a club or sneaking them away.
But it wasn’t as leisurely as I thought…
‘It’s a bit tricky because four people are running at the same time.’
He swatted away the scissor blades flying from the front and swung the club of Hercules with all his might.
One of the dwarves who was digging into his arms quickly backed away.
Whoa!
I aimed for the guy’s head, but missed his shoulder. Even with that, I stumbled as if it was quite a blow, but…
‘Are you dodging that again?’
The dwarves’ fighting skills were beyond imagination.
Their attacks didn’t reach me, but I also couldn’t land a critical hit on them.
‘As expected, the attack side is still lacking.’
I thought while fiddling with my stick.
Only in the labyrinth dungeon did he fully understand the weaknesses of the monsters, and weren’t there many prominent hunters around to support him?
But it was different now.
First of all, I didn’t understand the dwarves’ weaknesses at all.
These little things were so strong and fast that it didn’t feel like a lie to call themselves the Great Warriors.
‘Even though there is such a big difference in weight class…’
Honestly, I’m not sure if I can beat them all.
To make matters worse, unlike the labyrinth dungeon where skills were created almost every few minutes, now no matter how much you swing your club, not a single skill is created.
‘Is it because it was just the beginning that everything started to appear like that?’
Anything grows quickly in the beginning.
A dark light flashed across Damdeok’s face, and the expressions on the dwarves’ faces as they looked at Damdeok were also unusual…
“What? Why are you so good at avoiding that scene? Ha~ I told you you were a fanatic!”
“of course! The lowest level gods are almost no match for us! The guy who came as a pinch hitter last time was like that too…”
“But I think this guy is a little different?”
It seems they were quite surprised that they were able to avoid all of their attacks.
‘okay. How can I avoid it thanks to my combat concentration skills?’
The problem is
that Damdeok’s current attack skills are all of E grade or lower.
[Boxing (E+), horizontal cut (F), instantaneous charge (F), counterattack (F)…]
Moreover, most of them were only the basics of the basics.
To be honest, these were skills that even the average person who exercised a bit could have.
But it’s not disappointing.
No, I actually enjoy this situation.
Unlike in the past, where no matter how hard you tried, you couldn’t catch up, now, if you put in effort, you will get results.
The corners of Damdeok’s mouth quirked up.
“What are you doing? “Aren’t you going to attack me?”
The more you roll, the more your talent will shine.
The angry dwarves attacked again and crashed! Craddangtang! A loud uproar followed.
Of course, Hephaestus and the remaining dozens of dwarves just continued their work in silence.
Quang!
With a loud roar, Damdeok’s face roars! The wind rose.
‘what. ‘This is a bit strong…’
Cold sweat ran down my back.
The floor where the dwarf’s hammer hit.
The floor was sturdy and fine, but Damdeok could tell. Even if you just brush against this, you die instantly…
‘What kind of skill is this?’
The dwarves’ attacks were just threatening, but the most terrifying of them all was the skill called ‘downward slash’.
It may seem like a simple movement of raising a weapon above your head and then bringing it down, but it is not.
As soon as it is raised high, the weapon shines loudly, and as soon as it is struck down, a shock wave as if the heavens and earth were split apart…
If this blacksmith shop had not been the forge of the gods, the entire surrounding ground would have collapsed with one shot of that shining skill.
‘This is a truly ignorant attack.’
No matter how good I was at avoiding it, if something like that passed in front of my face, my legs would shake uncontrollably.
As the battle gradually reached its peak, the dwarves began to attack with vicious attacks.
“Please stop falling!”
“All it takes is one shot! “How could you not take that one hit!”
Boom! Quang!! Boom! Quang!!
Damdeok had to avoid them while sweating.
A duel with an intelligent being that is completely different from a monster.
Plus, the situation is at a disadvantage of 4 to 1.
Without realizing it, Damdeok’s inherent fighting talents were quickly adapting to the current situation.
Movement becomes noticeably lighter.
‘Hmm, why does it seem like it’s easier to avoid than before?’
By the time Damdeok was able to dodge the terrifying downward strike with some ease, Damdeok began to see the dwarves’ movements more precisely.
When they cast a skill, the position of both legs, the direction of the arm, the swing posture, and even the timing of the downward strike.
Damdeok, who had been watching for a while, realized that the moment the light enveloped the weapon, the dwarves’ bodies in the air became defenseless.
‘That’s it!’
Boom!
When Damdeok dodged the attack by jumping to the side, two dwarves jumped into the air, holding hammers and saws as if they had been waiting.
A whopping two people down.
If it had been like before, I would have backed off as much as possible.
This time was different.
At that moment when the two guys jumped into the air, Damdeok rushed at them fearfully.
Taaat!
Damdeok arrived in front of them in an instant and swung his club roughly.
Bubbuk!!
With a crashing sound, the two dwarves fell to the ground, and Damdeok, who did not miss the opportunity, kicked the ground with force.
Taaat!
The dwarves tried to get up, but it was already too late.
Damdeok was floating in the air, raising his club high.
“Is it just you guys? Let me try it too. “That handsome hammer!!”
A faithful basic posture for a downward strike.
[ A skill has been created!]
Flash!
A brilliant light enveloped Hercules’ club, and an unknown power began to flow from his fingertips.
Then, the club plummeted towards the dwarves, as if pulled by tremendous gravity.
Kkwaang!!
With a thunderous roar, the bodies of the four dwarves all flipped over.
The same was true for the carts and rebars nearby.
Miscellaneous items from the blacksmith shop turned over like a plate.
The cloudy dust quickly covered them.
“Whew. “My part-time job is really tough.”
Tsk tsk!
When Damdeok stood up, spitting out dust, all the members of the blacksmith shop were looking at him.
…why.what.
Are you asking me to protect the blacksmith shop?
