As a Sword Saint, I Want to Be a Demon King

Wilbur shook his head like a rattle and put the shield aside:

"We have never defeated you once, what's so good about practicing this kind of defeat?"

"I never beat you either."

Egwene said:

"There is no winner or loser in every game, and you all voluntarily admit defeat."

"—Because it would be even more embarrassing if you don't admit defeat."

The dwarf shield warrior sat on the ground, sighed while wiping his sweat:

"I fought with a cute little girl for a long time, and didn't even hurt a single hair of her... What's the point of continuing to fight?"

Rooney next to him was a taciturn man, and he nodded slightly when he heard the words.

Apparently he agrees with this view.

After that, the three of them didn't speak any more, and the atmosphere in the field suddenly became weird.

In fact, the silver-haired girl had a lot of complaints about the "delicate little girl".

But she could not protest, only silence.

The remaining Rooney doesn't like to talk, and Wilbur is not used to dealing with human girls;

Because in his opinion, women without beards are ugly.

"Cough! I say old man, have you heard?"

The scene was dull for a long time, and finally the dwarf couldn't help breaking the deadlock. He coughed and asked Rooney:

"Another town has been destroyed in recent days, and at least half of its residents have died."

"heard."

Steel Sword Knight propped his big sword on the ground and replied:

"Not only was the town attacked, but there are also rumors of undead haunting the surrounding forests. Many travelers and businessmen are afraid to go there."

"Haha, it looks like those pointy ears are having a hard time."

The dwarf gloated and said:

"They always think that the forest they live in is a sacred place, but now there are undead! I guess the pointed ears must feel very dull now."

"Pointy ears, do you mean elves?"

Aiwen suddenly asked from the side.

"Ah... yes, it is the elf you humans are talking about."

Unexpectedly, she would speak, the dwarf froze for a moment, and replied subconsciously:

"Why, you're also interested in those pointed ears? Ha, it's not surprising, the capital is full of noble ladies who scream when they see handsome elves."

"I'm just curious."

The silver-haired girl replied.

— She is indeed interested in elves.

But what I'm interested in is the beautiful and elegant elf girl, not some handsome elf guy.

"That's why I misunderstood."

The dwarf shrugged, he thought the swordswoman was shy:

"Actually, this kind of thing is nothing. After all, the appearance of pointy ears is very in line with human aesthetics, although I don't think there is anything attractive about those girls with bare chins."

He looks at men and women the same, and seems to use beards as the standard:

"But if you want to go to the forest to find them, you'd better avoid the place we just mentioned, because it has become very dangerous."

"Dangerous? Is it because of the undead?"

The silver-haired girl asked:

"—such as ghouls, skeletons, zombies, and ghosts?"

"Zombies? Skeletons? There's nothing to be afraid of slow-moving guys like that."

The dwarf patted his chest and boasted:

"I can smash their skulls with a hammer...Of course, I'm not very good at dealing with ghosts. That's the job of priests and magicians."

Chapter 10 The Devil and the Hero

"The real danger is the demons."

Steel Sword Knight said in a low voice from the side:

"That town was destroyed by many monsters. It is said that not only low-level miscellaneous soldiers came, but also a strong ogre."

"It smashed the fence with ease, rendering most of the fortifications useless. If it weren't for the desperate resistance of the soldiers stationed there, no one would be able to escape."

"Trolls? Do you mean ogres?"

The silver-haired girl couldn't quite tell the difference between these two words in a different world.

"Basically, you can think of them as similar things."

The dwarf laughed:

"However, most of the ogres are high-ranking members of the demon clan, possessing intelligence no less than ours; while ogres may be simple-minded mixed-breed species, and the height and strength of the two are often very different."

"But even an ordinary troll can easily kill a human grand knight, so once you encounter them in the wild, you must not be careless. The best way is to shoot them from a distance, or turn around and run away."

Speaking of the title of great knight, Rooney, the steel sword knight, looked a little ugly.

He is now the rank of the great knight.

If he were to face the troll that destroyed the entire town, he would most likely end up defeated and killed.

"It sounds like the situation out there is pretty bad right now."

Egwene said in a low voice:

"I have heard similar rumors occasionally, but I always thought it was just a rumor."

"--gossip!"

The dwarf shield warrior said loudly:

"If it's just rumors, why would our family migrate here? Those sharp ears won't worry about the undead anymore—"

He seemed unwilling to say much about it.

Just yelled, interrupted the high-pitched voice, and moved the topic elsewhere:

"In short, besides the ogre, I'm sure there are more terrifying monsters around here;"

"Currently, they are just peeping in the dark, and if they have the chance, they will come out in full force! Tear us apart!"

"Hasn't the king of the demons been defeated a long time ago?"

Egwen asked suspiciously:

"Why does this situation still occur?"

"How can flowers in a greenhouse know about storms and showers?"

The dwarf sighed:

"I'm not mocking you... There are many human beings who think the same as you. They all think that everything will be fine if you defeat the leader of the Demon Race. In fact, it's just the opposite."

"If you want to be the king of the demons, you must become the strongest and most vicious of them; because only in this way, other demons will obey willingly;"

"This kind of guy who can make all the demons bow their heads suddenly disappears one day. What do you think will happen?"

"—they will kill each other and fight for power?"

The silver-haired girl replied:

"Or put down the flags and drums, and stay dormant."

"Maybe for a short time."

The dwarf shrugged:

"Because the hero who defeated the devil is still there...but how long can the hero live?"

He said mockingly:

"Fifty years? One hundred years?"

"A hundred years later, when the hero turns into dust, who else will be able to frighten the darkness and keep all the demons from dormant?"

"—The devil often has it, but the hero doesn't often have it."

Steel Sword Knight Rooney actually uttered a very familiar sentence, but unfortunately the meaning has completely changed:

"We have lost heroes for a long time... Maybe this is the root cause of the demons' rampant rampage."

Having said that, he suddenly froze for a moment.

The dwarf shield warrior sitting next to him was also stunned.

—Then the two turned their heads together and looked at the silver-haired girl.

"?"

Egwene wondered.

She didn't know what the two guys were doing staring at her.

If someone else did it, she might think it was rude.

But as far as she knew, neither Wilbur nor Rooney were such boring men.

"I actually forgot, the famous sword master Van Lun Garcia - his descendants are with us."

Wilbur slapped his thigh and laughed loudly:
