I’m Not That Kind of Talent - Chapter 167

167. A time when there were a lot of tired people (3)

In the training hall, there were the Mad Dog Knights and Deon Hardt Ed just as we saw a moment ago.

Deon, who was scolding the knights to his heart’s content, spots Dan approaching from afar and bites Ed with a wave of his hand.

Ed glared at Dan with a sullen expression and then walked away, and Dan, who had already arrived in front of Deon, spoke.

“Mission accomplished.”

I immediately confirmed that there was no one around.

He took out a bundle of amulets from his pocket and politely held them out to Deon. Deon looked at it for a moment, then accepted it and looked back at the knights who had been scolding him just a moment ago.

“Everyone gather here.”

“Ah, the captain’s tone is back!”

“Shut up and gather around.”

You have to say it twice to hear it.

After glaring at the knights gathered around him for a moment, he sighed and began handing out amulets one by one.

First of all, I took it because the captain gave it to me, but I wonder what this is. Among the knights who were looking at the yellow paper in confusion, someone cautiously raised his hand.

“Captain, what is this?”

“A talisman that makes the battle conditions between you and the demons somewhat similar. Of course, it’s only ‘a little’… but from now on, make sure to keep this with you at all times. “What are we going to do if we start a fight with Corps 0 without this kind of preparation?”

When I think about it again, my blood pressure rises.

Feeling like his fever was rising, Deon quietly touched his forehead.

Yes, those crazy people started a fight with Legion 0 without any preparation. It was a shame that I heard the news even though it was too late and stopped the fight before it broke out. They almost died without even making a sound.

‘This is the demon world.’

This is not the human world where all kinds of restrictions exist. It was difficult to think about the demons I faced in the human world. Even the opponent they were arguing with was Legion 0. It was the elite of the elite.

If crazy dogs who are not ‘heroes’ fight each other, they will die in a hundred seconds. Deon let out a heavy sigh.

“Why did you do that?”

“yes?”

“Why did you start a fight?”

There is no way that those who specialize in survival could not understand the difference in level between themselves and the enemy.

Even though they seemed thoughtless, he couldn’t help but express his doubts because he knew that they were surprisingly capable of understanding and calculating the difference in capabilities between the opponent and the situation and the background justification, and were operating within a line that would not kill them to some extent.

“You said my name was put in the background in the demon world, the home of the demons, but why on earth is it that they don’t welcome you?…” “

But…”

A voice filled with resentment came out.

“But they said they were ‘the true servants of Daeon!’ “They leave the captain to themselves and leave us in the corner as if we don’t exist!”

“The captain is ours!”

“We served you longer!”

“I fed him, put him to sleep, clothed him, and took care of him!”

oh my god.

Dan, who was quietly watching the situation, groaned and muttered.

“…Only for that reason?”

“That’s just the reason! “It’s very important!”

“Yes, very important! That’s why I decided to take the lead and give it a try!”

Deon, who had been quietly listening with his arms folded until they mumbled that they couldn’t fight because the captain came, looked around at the knights with a lot of regret. Likewise, a voice that did not hide its sorrow came out of his mouth.

“You did something really useless.”

“What a useless thing! It’s very important to us…”

Tuk. As an act of restraint, I extended my finger and touched the forehead of the boy who was about to start talking excitedly again and continued speaking.

“The premise is wrong.”

“?”

“I am yours, so you must be mine.”

“…!”

“is not it?”

There was no reason to fight in the first place.

The eyes of the knights widened.

Even the brief moment of silence caused an explosion-like reaction.

“That’s right! “We belong to the captain!”

“Oh, I made a very big mistake! “You’re mistaken about that important and obvious fact!”

“I can’t believe I heard the captain say something like that while I was alive… I have no regrets even if I die now…”

Dan let out a laugh as if it was absurd, but no one paid any attention.

Of course, it may be an unpleasant remark to some people. But the members were just happy.

Our Captain Deon Hardt’s remarks were nothing short of a confirmation that the bond between the knights was not one-sided.

“I didn’t know the captain could express it in words….”

“Me too…”

You can feel a faint affection and consideration in actions or casual words, but it is different from hearing it directly.

Whether Deon and Dan were embarrassed or not, each member wiped away tears.

“We love you too!”

“What bullshit is that….”

“I’m scared, but I love you!”

“How on earth should I have thought about the story…”

“Long live the captain!”

“Top-trend!”

“Where did you pick that up again?”

I don’t know why the story went the way it did, but if I say more here, it’s the only thing that hurts my mouth.

Deon, who was touching the corner of his mouth in subtle irritation, took something out of his arms and put it in his mouth. The moment when Dan naturally puts out a fire and slightly lowers his head to light it.

“Captain, is that medicine?”

A voice full of unfiltered astonishment was heard.

“You’re not in combat right now?”

“…It’s my heart.”

“Are you saying that? “The captain is the one who said that if there was a guy using drugs outside of combat, he would stop him, even if it meant hitting his head!”

“I’m the leader so it’s okay.”

“Don’t force yourself! “That’s an abuse of power!”

People who talk back to each other even though their voices gradually become lower are rushing in and taking cigarettes out of their mouths. Deon’s brow furrowed, but no one paid any attention.

They should have given them at least some candy…

Each member looked in tears as they searched their pockets.

“There is no candy.”

“There is no candy.”

“Chocolate too.”

It’s impossible to hit the captain’s head.

They even opened the mouths of the people next to them to check my pockets and your pockets, and their eyes turned to Dan, who had been standing still the whole time.

“…What is it?”

“Do you have any candy?”

“It’s not there… I thought about it and there it is.”

Are all shamans originally like this? I thought there was something wrong with handing out candy that I didn’t even like.

Before coming here, I took out the candy I received from the shaman. The member who came over and took it took a quick sniff as if checking for poison, then peeled off the skin and put it in Deon’s mouth.

Deon frowned at the sudden sweetness that filled his mouth, but that was all. Instead of getting angry or nagging, he rolled the candy in his mouth a few times and then looked back at Dan.

“I may have figured it out well, but I still need to hear an explanation… Let’s go back to the room.”

….

Sweet. Dan, who closed the door, took the coat from Deon, hung it on a hanger, and said goodbye without a problem.

“The distribution channel for unapplied paper has been successfully closed. “We were promised cooperation from many shamans.”

“It must have been hard work to find the shaman.”

“No, well… everything is possible because I have money. “There are places like information guilds everywhere, right?”

It was much more difficult to obtain a bundle of amulets that suppressed the abilities of demons.

“…Oh, I also met the deacon.”

“Remember? It looks like he went to the mansion at least? Why are you there?…”

“No, I ran into him while I was on my way to the information guild.”

Dan, who remembered the old man greeting him with his usual expression, ‘It’s been a long time,’ said to himself with a slightly bewildered expression.

“I received a lot of help. Probably half of the shamans I have been in contact with have met through my deacon. “Some of them were former imperial shamans.”

Of course, I received a brokerage fee, but considering the results, it was a great help.

Didn’t he even know that Dan had followed Deonhardt? I helped rather than reported it, so I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable, regardless of the benefit.

Deon frowned as if doing the same.

“What on earth is that old man?…”

“Doesn’t even the Master know?”

“I don’t know. “I have naturally been the butler since I received the mansion.”

“okay.”

Since it was an expected answer to some extent, Dan answered indifferently and checked the amount of water in the vase by the window, which was strangely fresh even after a long time.

…I’m sure Hien must have picked flowers from the human world.

‘A flower that is not from the demon world can be so fresh without any harm or water?’

After checking the dried out interior and filling it with water, I stared at the flower as if having a snowball fight.

However, Dan swallowed his laughter at the sight of the flower, which seemed to give a gentle feeling rather than a harmless feeling, let alone a dangerous feeling, and put the vase back by the window.

In the process, it was by chance that my eyes fell on the murderous knights in the training ground outside the window.

Each person seems to be hiding amulets here and there on their bodies. Dan, who witnessed someone putting an amulet in his pocket and dropping it on the floor, spoke slowly.

“…I don’t think they will always take care of the amulet, so wouldn’t it be better to put it on an epaulet and have them wear it? “If we roughly say this is proof that we are humans belonging to Deonhardt, everyone will understand.”

“that’s good. “I can’t have another demon do it for me, so you do it.”

“….”

“Then should I do it?”

“…no. I will do it.”

Do you really not know?

Even though I intentionally mentioned the epaulettes, there was no response. Dan, who decided that it would be better to ask directly, quietly began to speak.

“But how did you know about the existence of such an amulet?”

“huh?”

Deon, who was lying on the bed covering his eyes with his arms, rolled over and lay down on his side and looked at Dan.

“The devil said this at the corps commander’s meeting. “There are not only ‘jinn’ but also ‘talismans’ that suppress the magic of demons.”

“…yes?”

“huh?”

“…No wait… It’s an amulet that suppresses ‘magic’? “Not ‘ability’?”

“Isn’t that what it is?”

“…oh my god.”

What kind of trouble did I go through? No, as a result, I found out about the existence of a much better talisman and obtained it, so it’s not a total hardship… but it’s still unfair.

Dan covered his face with both hands. Deon stood up with a startled look.

“What’s wrong?”

“….”

“What are those irreverent eyes?”

“No, just. It’s a bit unfair…”

“?”

It’s really disgusting to see people putting question marks over their heads as if they don’t know anything.

No, it’s true that you don’t know anything. At least use your judgment. Dan mumbled his answer with a deep sigh.

“That amulet is not the kind that suppresses ‘magic’ as you think.”

“…Then what is it?”

“It should be said to be an amulet that imposes the same restrictions on demons within a 3 meter radius as when they went out to the human world through the border.”

“…It may be useless in the human world, but it’s much better here, right? “How did you find out about that?”

“That’s right… I think it’s amazing.”

Dan continued speaking shamelessly, whether or not Deon’s expression turned sour.

Honestly, this was worth it.

“So I want you to know. It is a talisman with much better functions than the talisman the Master mentioned. For your information, neither finding out its existence nor finding it was easy.”

“Uh… okay… Thank you for your hard work…”

Anyway, then you don’t have to worry about crazy dogs dying.

The same restrictions are imposed as when going out to the human world through the border… So, that means that the talisman only doubles the amount of magic required for the opposing demons to use their magic, and does not completely block the magic.

…If possible, it would be better to do everything possible.

“It would be a good idea to put an amulet that restricts the human world as you said on one epaulette and an amulet that prevents the use of magic on the other epaulette and wear it on both shoulders.”

“…I saved that amulet just in case, so what could I have done if it wasn’t a disaster?”

Dan grunted but nodded.

After confirming his confirmation, Deon closed his eyes, unable to overcome his fatigue. A slightly drowsy voice slowly flowed out.

“Put the human world restriction amulet you obtained on my epaulette.”
