Duke’s Quadruplets Are All Overpowered Chapter 173

173

Strange atmosphere.

The mercenaries, who must choose between hostility and force, negotiation and persuasion, are weighing their days and contemplating which to choose. I respected their conflict. At least he didn’t fall into the category of villains I know. If they were evil demon magicians, they would naturally seek revenge on me for killing the demon they needed without permission.

I was the one with the upper hand in the situation.

To them, I was an unknown enemy whose identity was unknown and whose power I could not guess. The ambiguous attitude I took was still at the stage of doubting my identity. In the end, it was the vice-captain who had the authority to make the decision.

“Guardian, you know that demons also form an ecology.”

He made excuses and chose the option of deferring the decision to me.

“He is the Desert Demon Rat Man. This is a demon that has been appearing in the sewers of Nephi since one day and has been devouring countless citizens. Until just a few years ago, the citizens of Nephi were very afraid of the sound of rats.”

He caught the mouse that was running away. The rat, which was struggling to escape from the vice-captain’s grasp, gradually stopped resisting as its breathing was gradually becoming constricted.

“After many battles and sacrifices, we succeeded in driving them all the way to this distant desert.”

Take a picture!

When the stunned rat was released, the rat came to its senses and ran away.

“Even though it is a devil, it prefers rats as food to humans. Violets, copper, and rice seeds paralyze its body, its tail is its weak point, and it lives in humid and dark places. “We have used this information as a weapon to fight the devil.”

The vice-captain’s stubborn eyes are watching me.

“This is valuable information obtained after the capture of the hated demons. Nephi is helpless, weak, and poor to apply the ‘Wall Rule’. Guardian, do you understand how the outcast survives?”

I answered in a cold voice.

“So you’re saying I shouldn’t have killed the demon?”

“That’s not what I meant. Anyway, the devil… “Because it is something that must be killed.”

They are not the end of the demon wizards.

My guess is that there will be more demon magicians than my father expected.

Nephi, the forsaken city –

It is not too late to see it for yourself and judge for yourself.

“I think I made the wrong decision due to ignorance. It seems like the mercenaries are carrying out a more sacred mission than I thought. So, I would like to stay in Nephi for a while… … .”

“If you have open eyes and ears, you are welcome at any time. “Guardian.”

Although he expressed it politely, his words were thorny.

‘If you have eyes and ears, come and see for yourself, you idiot.’

This is what it means.

‘Nephi’

It was a fairly prosperous city, accumulating wealth through mining and trade, but it is the only city in the Great Desert that collapsed after the Demon War. The Sternil Kingdom had no intention of rebuilding the fallen city. It was a city buried in the desert sand. It is a city that has been administratively deleted, and it is a time when even those who remember Nephi are rare.

However, Nephi, which I saw with my own eyes, was not the fallen city that was rumored.

“It’s peaceful.”

The streets were clean. It wasn’t a lively street, but it wasn’t gloomy either. No one is starving or begging. Rather, the overall standard of living was in the well-to-do category. Clear water and abundant food. A well-maintained house with no collapses. It never seemed like an abandoned and disconnected city.

“After the report, I will show you where to stay. Would you like to wait at the base in the meantime?”

“I want to look around the village, is that okay?”

“Why not? “Our base is on the right side of the square, so it won’t be difficult to find.”

After parting ways with the mercenaries, I wandered around Nephi quietly like a traveler.

The smell of freshly baked bread from a bakery irritated my nose.

People’s clothes were clean and there were no sick people.

The cracked road was under repair, and the bell tower’s iron bell rang four times every hour. The residents were not interested in outsiders. Their lives were ordinary. The musician in the square turned on the biella. The music was lively. The kids holding the branches were the only ones who showed any interest in me. But it didn’t come close. They played sword fights with each other, and like any child of that age, the enemy they had to defeat was the devil. The strange thing is that there are no heroes. There was no hero in the roles played by the children. It was a strange role play, fighting demons against demons.

As the sun was setting, the miners at Nephi Mine returned from work. The quiet city became noisy. Miners worked in the mine for several days. Today was the day of return, and the cart was full of ore before it was processed. Nephi fell. However, minerals and gems from Nepai are always distributed in the market. The number is absolutely not less than in its heyday. It was a fact everyone knew.

As the day came to an end and evening fell, the city was swept into silence.

I realized something strange.

There are no bars in the city.

When the sun set, everyone went home.

“This is true.”

It was a peaceful city.

“What a shitty neighborhood.”

But the ‘color’ of this city.

It was darker and more murky than any other city.

In the city where the lights were off, the three-story stone building was the only place where the light of the magic stone was shining.

When I knocked on the door of the mercenary base, the Great Swordwoman opened the door.

“Now you are here.”

When I glanced inside the base, I saw more than ten mercenaries in addition to the mercenaries from before. They were holding drinking glasses in their left hand and salted meat in their right. And he kept his weapon close to him, whether on his waist, shoulder, or on the table. Unfortunately, they were all organs, signs of the devil. The explanation about me seemed to be roughly over. I looked around and sat down on an empty seat. A short old woman handed me drinks and snacks. The drink made from goat milk was sour and the beef jerky was too salty.

“So, where are you from?”

the big man asked.

I didn’t answer.

It was annoying.

Take the hassle.

I didn’t feel any value.

Ignoring is a great way to touch on human violence. After asking twice, the man stood up. He clenches his fists with a grim look on his face. It looked like it was going to hit me in the face at any moment.

“Keep your temper, Terte – he’s a wounded man.”

The vice-captain answered on his behalf.

“It hasn’t been long since I experienced the symptoms of magic necrosis. “I won’t have the energy, so you understand.”

“Hmph, you’re doing fine for someone who’s sick, aren’t you? “Isn’t it because you’re a good guardian that you don’t like talking to dirty guys like us?”

Most mercenaries were hostile.

Some were favorable.

Some were indifferent.

It could have been so. They say they are ‘mercenaries’, but in my opinion, they are closer to vigilantes. The people of Nephi would naturally hate the Sternil and Silaren families who abandoned Nephi. I understand their complaints.

The vice-captain tried to stop me, but the big man and a few idiots didn’t give up and sat next to me. The vice-captain did not stop him twice. He doesn’t know much about me yet.

“Hey, skinny. We don’t trust you. You accidentally fell down on the street? Hmph, who do you think is an asshole? Now the Guardian is interested in our work. “It must be an intention to steal Nephi’s minerals.”

He warned me loudly in my ear.

My breath smelled bad.

“You’d better not show up.”

I understand.

Complaining.

“If you are caught cheating, they will rip off your face to prevent you from becoming a male prostitute… … .”

can not do it.

f*ck.

puck-!

I hit the guy in the face with my fist.

A few yellow teeth flew out and became embedded in the wall.

I spoke to the mercenaries who trampled on the unconscious man.

“First of all, I’m sorry for causing you many misunderstandings.”

The only sound was the sound of the embarrassed mercenaries putting down their drinks.

While everyone was looking at me with absurd looks, I politely explained.

“First of all, he is naturally elegant and handsome, which sometimes causes misunderstanding. However, unlike his appearance, his personality is a bit dirty. Well, if you spend a few years with them, it’s natural… “Anyway.”

A few of the idiots who followed him came to their senses and started swinging their fists.

puck-!

I pulled out their teeth the same way.

“It’s okay as long as you have a dirty personality, but unfortunately, you are also strong. Nothing strange, right? Is there any need to put up with swearing and arguing? Second, I’m sorry for making you think I had a plan. I just happened to run into you and feel blessed. I will definitely pay you back for treating your wounds, but that doesn’t mean I like all of you. There is no need to be wary or hostile because you think they are manipulating you. “I guess it’s already too late anyway.”

‘Likeability’ was divided.

In an instant, everything turned ‘very hostile’.

The atmosphere became more violent.

Healer Rosieman stepped back and sighed.

I chuckled when I saw the vice-captain clenching his fists.

“I’ll stop being noble now. If they tease you, attack them. “f*ck.”

Wow!

As soon as he finished speaking, the mercenaries turned on their eyes and attacked.

The morel cub said, ‘How dare my brother!’ As he ran towards me shouting clichéd lines, I slapped him in the face. A pimple broke out and pus covered my palm. I was truly disgusted and quickly wiped it on the fallen guy’s clothes. Then, when the great sword woman rushed in, shouting a line that unexpectedly revealed the family situation, saying, ‘How dare you kill my ex-husband!’, he kicked her in the ankle and knocked her down. Mercenaries rushed in and fell like dominoes. I only used one hand. His anger had already subsided after a few hits, but he deliberately used only humiliating violence to inflame their anger. I slapped him and kicked his butt.

The base quickly became a mess.

The mercenaries did not give up and rushed over the scattered tables, broken liquor bottles, and crushed beef jerky. The vice-captain was the only one who maintained his senses, but he too stood up at the sight of his colleague being treated.

Hmm.

The devil’s power was not visible.

I didn’t even use an organ.

No matter how much you hate it, you’re saying it’s not of use to people?

The mercenaries were strong in their own right, but they were no match for me at all. I briefly thought that increasing the intensity of violence might reveal the power of the devil, but it was also an unnecessary method. I know that you don’t use the devil’s power carelessly.

The mercenaries’ anger was worse than expected.

Men and women, old and young alike, had their faces burst and bleeding, but their passion to hit me did not cool down. It’s unfortunate, but there’s nothing we can do.

Clink-

A liquor bottle aimed at his head hit the wall and shattered.

I quickly approached him.

match-!

“Ahh! “Why are you hitting me?”

“You threw a bottle from afar.”

I thought as I slapped Rosie.

So, what happens now?

I realized that there were only two ways to end the fight: either I get beaten like a dog by them, or I cross the line into violence and completely destroy the relationship. At a time when I was worried, fortunately, someone appeared who could end the situation.

“ha ha ha-! “Everyone stop!”

A loud laugh and a loud voice calm the heated atmosphere for an instant –

Like a lie, the mercenaries stopped all their actions and returned to their original positions.

The owner of the voice was a tall man coming down from the second floor.

The moment I saw him, I felt terrible discomfort and trauma.

Overwhelming size, force, and eyes. A harmonious atmosphere.

It smells similar to Lannister.

It’s a beast, that guy.

The attitude of the mercenaries was fascinating.

The man silenced their boiling anger with a single voice.

I have no complaints either. I value the author’s orders more than my anger and hostility towards myself.

Absolute Loyalty-

Or fear?

This also has some similarities to Lanista.

He stood halfway up the stairs and looked at me while talking.

“You are very different from the guardians I know. “All of the guardians of Silaren know, but I have never heard of anyone like you.”

I faced those beast-like eyes.

“Are you really the guardian of Silaren?”

I said it resembles Lannistar, but that doesn’t mean it’s the same as him.

“If you have any contacts, ask ‘Hugo.’ “Do you know the name ‘Remini’?”

The man smoothed his black beard and narrowed his eyes.

“Hmm, that’s surprising. He’s the ‘young’ master of Silaren… haha. Could it be that there is someone impersonating Silaren in the desert? By the way, I’ll be honest. I really like you. “A man should have the courage to rip out the throat of someone who insults him wherever he is!”

He came down the stairs and stood next to me.

It was bigger than Lanista. He had to lift his neck slightly to look her in the eyes.

“But since they are my babies, how about we leave it at this? I will personally apologize to the teacher. Please forgive my rudeness.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the man who had first started arguing with me fell flat on his face with a toothless face. I shrugged and looked at the two in turn. Now I understand. From his trembling shoulders, you can feel the fear of prey in the lion’s maw.

“I’m fine. I’m sorry I broke a few teeth. “Are you okay?”

“divination… “I don’t care.”

“haha. Even though the ‘first greeting’ was bad, I think it ended well. I was preparing to have a conversation with ‘Silaren’ in the near future. That’s good. “I want to serve you until then. What do you think?”

It was a visible statement.

Until then, they will be held hostage and if they are an impersonator, they will be searched.

This is what I mean.

Talk to Silaren… … .

It’s better to get it done before things get complicated.

He said, holding out a hand the size of a pot lid.

“I guess I was late to say hello. “My name is Farhed Azmun, leader of the Rhinoceros mercenaries, leader of Nephi’s vigilante group, and head of trade.”

I shook hands with him.

“Nice to meet you. Mr. Fahed.”

It’s clearing!

I suppressed Dalbi’s power.

My palms are hot.

He was truly a bold man.

I never thought the devil’s energy would be hidden like this.
