The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 221
Chapter 214 Secret hidden underground (2)
Dwarf.
From the moment he takes his first steps, he holds a hammer and lives his whole life surrounded by fire in the oven.
I heard it by rumor.
They say that they have a fanatical obsession with everything that is made in the forge, and they show infinite respect for works of art.
Their instincts did not discriminate time and place.
Even in the current situation where they were claiming their territory, the dwarf’s spirit left the body in an instant.
Roman Dmitry’s sword.
It was brilliant.
The dwarves couldn’t come to their senses at the shape of the sword illuminated by the torch.
“… It may sound crazy to ask to see the sword after blushing just now, but it only takes a minute. no 3 minutes! How could I not show that sword just once? If you grant my request, I will really consider the compromise with Dmitri positively.”
The voice became muffled.
Roman Dmitri stared at his opponent.
Giving away the sword to an unreliable target was unacceptable, but I saw pure desire in the dwarf’s eyes.
Strong wind like a child.
The artisans Roman Dmitri had met showed the same eyes when they witnessed the artwork.
It was a very familiar reaction, and I knew that there would be no problem even if I handed over the sword.
around 30 m.
It was the realm of the senses.
There were several dwarves beyond my sight and the information about what they were doing was sucked into my head.
one in a million
I was confident to block variables.
And the experience of Roman Dmitry.
It convinced them that the act of showing the sword would serve as an opportunity to advance their relationship with the Dwarves.
‘The dwarves have no grudge against Dmitri. Then there is no reason to exacerbate the problem.’
Roman Dmitri is not a murderer.
Only cruel out of necessity.
Even relationships that could be improved were not doomed.
“Take the sword.”
at that point.
The Dwarf responded with emotion.
At first, he didn’t trust Roman Dmitri, so he reacted cautiously, then took the sword with trembling hands.
It looked like it would burst into tears any moment.
He could not hide his admiration as he examined every nook and cranny of the sword.
“… There is a sword like this in the world.”
strength of the sword.
shape of the sword.
It was perfect.
However, that alone could not be called a work of art in the world of dwarves, and Roman Dmitri’s sword showed the nature of accepting and assimilating with the energy of nature.
This was truly miraculous.
Dwarves always wanted the sword to transcend the realm of an object, but the sword in front of them seemed to give the answer to that question.
thump thump.
My heart raced.
He treated the sword carefully as if he were handling a child.
“Who the hell made this sword?”
A few figures popped into my mind.
It was an area that was impossible with human technology, and I thought it might be possible for the ancestors of the Dwarves who were once famous on the continent.
It is not a conclusion based on prejudice.
With the technology of humans who live for at most a hundred years, there was no technology and experience to create something of this magnitude.
however.
“I made it.”
“… Is it really?”
There was a ripple in the dwarf’s eyes.
I couldn’t believe it.
To think that the person in front of me created such a treasure.
I looked at the sword again.
No matter how much he thought about it, the unbelievable fact made the Dwarf caress his sword and gently closed his eyes.
memory of the sword.
I read about the process of creating a sword.
It was a special ability only for Dwarves, and as the space he existed in was entangled, the surroundings began to turn into workshops.
What happened in the underground tunnel was completely ruled out.
The dwarf fell into the moment when the sword was born, and at the same time the furnace spewed out tremendous flames, the figure of Roman Dmitri appeared.
Hwareuk.
Roaring.
Caang! Caang!
Roman Dmitry knocked on steel.
Her naked upper body was burning bright red, and her gaze toward the sword showed the eyes of a craftsman similar to that of dwarves.
admired
Roman Dmitry was clearly a craftsman.
They were not ordinary humans, but of the same kind as themselves.
It was then.
Roaring.
The fire intensified.
The flames of the furnace shook and wrapped around Roman Dmitri, and the dwarf almost screamed at the tremendous sight, forgetting that it was the memory of the sword.
It was dangerous.
The fire was a force that even the Dwarves handled with care every time, and it was clear that the frail human body would not be able to withstand the runaway flames.
but.
The situation I was worried about did not happen.
Roman Dmitry reigned in the flames.
He accepted the flames engulfing his body as it was, and hit the steel with a hammer that was burning with fire.
“iced coffee… !”
I opened my mouth wide.
The appearance of Roman Dmitry.
It was like an incarnation of fire.
Tears flowed from his hazy eyes, and the memory of the sword ended before he knew it.
The emotional afterglow didn’t go away.
The dwarf looked at Roman Dmitri with rippled eyes and spoke in a different earnest voice than before.
“It might be possible for you. Please take back our land.”
* * *
Attitudes have changed.
The dwarf, who had been yelling at him not to come closer, now treated Roman Dmitri like a nobleman.
“You want the land back. What do you mean?”
Roman Dmitry also.
showed respect for the opponent.
The Dwarf calmed his violently beating heart and spoke in a cautious voice.
“Before I tell you my request, you should know why the dwarves migrated to the Endless Mountains. In fact, the Endless Mountains is a name given by humans. Contrary to what humans think, there is an end to the endless mountain range. Arcadie. That is what we call beyond the endless mountains, and it is a harmonious world inhabited by different races.”
over the mountains.
A new world opened up.
Various forms of life lived there, as well as heterogeneous races such as elves and dwarves.
If the incident that plunged the different races into despair had not occurred.
Dwarves would not have set foot in the endless mountains even now.
“A very long time ago. At a time when the human world was not as developed as it is now, an unknown cold wave occurred across the mountain range. As a result, the ground froze and even the World Tree, the foundation of this world, withered away. That was the beginning of the disaster. The elves guarding the World Tree tried their best to save it, but they couldn’t get it back to its original form no matter what method they used. At that time, many different races died. The different races who said they would live in Arcadia until the end collapsed one by one from the cold and hunger, and the ancestors of the dwarves at the time had no choice but to make a decision for the survival of the race. like that. We have settled here in the endless mountains.”
long time ago.
It was so outdated that I couldn’t even fathom it.
The reason why the dwarf explained what happened beyond the endless mountain range had something to do with the main topic I’m going to talk about.
“About several decades ago. We found a mass of fire demons deep underground. It is a dangerous power that can burn the whole world, but it is also the only hope to melt the world tree if used well. Roman Dmitry. I met you for the first time today. However, I believe it was the will of God that I met you, who handles fire freely at a time when we don’t even dare to approach the mass of fire. I beg you kindly. Please bring me a lump of fire. If you do our favor, we will do anything in the name of the ‘brown rock’ that leads the dwarves.”
A relationship that started with a quarrel.
It was the moment of entering a new phase.
* * *
Brown rocks.
When dwarves are born, they make use of the nature around them that catches the mother’s eye to create a name.
the underworld.
In a world where only brown rocks catch the eye, the new leader of the dwarves has become a symbol representing the Dark Ages.
at his request.
Roman Dmitry was lost in thought.
‘Is it necessary to help them?’
A lump of fire.
That would be a dangerous force.
It would be completely different from the normal flames, and the request of the brown rock might cost his life.
The reward he was talking about actually meant nothing.
The relationship with the dwarves had to be resolved somehow, and there was no reason for them to listen to what they wanted, risking their lives as collateral.
but.
Roman Dmitry felt a strong pull.
He thought that a series of circumstances might be his destiny.
‘This life is not the life I hoped for. I accepted death and when I opened my eyes, I was existing as a person named Roman Dmitri. At first, I didn’t think of the situation that befell me as fate. Dmitri’s idiot wasn’t human enough to talk about fate, he just lived with the reality that befell him.’
a day or two.
Time passed.
The things I’ve experienced so far have formed a link before I knew it.
‘Living as Roman Dmitry. Is it really a coincidence that I met people similar to my previous life? Dmitri was an uncommon family of blacksmiths, and the endless mountain range behind the estate was very similar to the 100,000 mountains of the Heavenly Demon Church. I followed my previous life. As a result, I am walking a different path from my previous life, but the experience of my previous life has helped me a lot in living my current life.’
and.
I found Dwarves in the Endless Mountains.
They admired his sword and said his ability to handle fire made him the right person to solve their problems.
It was fate.
Unless you were born as Roman Dmitry.
If only Dmitry hadn’t stuck with endless mountain ranges.
If the development of iron ore had not touched the underground passage.
If he wasn’t a person with the ability to handle the Divine Art of Fire.
The moment when any of the conditions were not met, the situation like now facing the dwarves would not have been achieved.
‘I’ve just entered the intellect stage. If accepting the flames of a fire is an ordeal that is too difficult for me to bear, the stage of knowledge will give me the strength to endure it. It was at this time that he met the dwarves. Can we really dismiss all of this as a coincidence? Isn’t there a clear reason why I was given a new life, having lived in Moorim, which had nothing to do with this world in the first place?’
tail-biting questions.
There was no clear answer.
Heavenly Demon Baek Joong-hyeok.
I lived by cursing fate.
He struggled desperately at the bottom of his life and cursed God countless times for drowning him in this life.
however.
It was different now.
It was Baek Jung-hyeok’s will and choice that life gave everyone trials and overcame all kinds of adversity to reach the pinnacle.
beings who died by themselves.
They did not meet such an end because it was fate, but only fell into losers in a fierce battle in which each other was aiming for each other’s lives.
fate.
believed
There is a reality that each person is given, but I didn’t think that it decided everything.
so that.
‘Let’s check what brought me to this place.’
Leave your relationship with the dwarves.
This decision was a decision for myself.
“I will accept your request.”
A reply that came back after silence.
The brown rock looked bright as if it had won the world.

I took a step.

went all the way down to the basement.
The growing heat was not caused by geothermal heat.
at some point.
The brown rock stopped and said.
“From now on, this is an area we cannot enter. A lump of fire is a dangerous entity. Please take care of yourself. If you give me a clue to save the world tree. We will make you our lifelong benefactor.”
their words.
It wasn’t a major issue.
drew attention
I stepped inside and after moving for a while, an unbelievably huge space unfolded in the basement.
at its center.
A fire raged.
Just looking at it, like a small sun, made me feel like I would go blind.
‘No matter what brought me to this place. I will live for the things I believe in and follow.’

Faced with the hot heat, he brought his hand.
That moment.

Roaring.
A tremendous heat engulfed Roman Dmitri’s existence.
