I’m Not That Kind of Talent Chapter 282

282. A lot of talk and a lot of trouble (1)

‘Oh, right. ‘To be honest, I don’t want to believe it.’

I know that it is a fleeting wish and avoidance.

Deon had already predicted how Lyrinel would act.

This is… the last chance I give to Lirinel and the time I give myself.

‘Because it’s not too late….’

Every time you truly care for me, I can’t breathe.

If I make full use of the time given to me now and put you in the frame of a demon and organize my thoughts, I will even try to use your life.

So I hope you turn your back on me. I hope the word gets out to the devil.

‘Run away.’

Let me push you away.

Deon laughed while hiding his true feelings, and Lyrinel, who saw this, immediately agreed.

“Just trust me!”

“….”

It looked like anyone who saw it had fallen for it.

***

A competition was held that also involved the subjugation of monsters. They say they’ll have a banquet right after it’s over.

Unusually, upon hearing the news that all corps commanders except the heroic corps commander 0 were participating, the face of the official corps commander-only doctor setter, who was dragged out without even knowing why, turned pale.

“…Then what is the boundary line?”

“If you had heard about the current situation in the human world, you would know. They cannot afford to dare to set foot in our territory.”

“The defense of the four cities…?”

“I heard that Lirinel and his army have set up a temporary barrier.”

“…The magical power consumption must be enormous?”

“Yes, it’s only going to be a few days, so…”

The setter, who had been changing his complexion at Ben’s words, made a determined expression as if he had made up his mind. He started gathering weapons.

Ben, who was snooping around for something, placed a question mark above his head.

“Why are you taking a weapon…?”

Ben, who only has one patient in charge, Deonhardt, does not mind carrying a weapon and following him around, but it is standard for the setter, who is in charge of all corps commanders except Deonhardt, to stay in his seat and receive patients while standing. But why…

the question was resolved as soon as I heard the setter’s muttering.

“If there are any injuries, they will come to me…”

“…?”

“They are corps commanders with dirty personalities, so if I don’t treat them properly, they will threaten me with my life.”

“….”

“So, it would be better if we exterminate the main monster before that…”

“…You’re crazy.”

Is this because, for the first time in a long time, a situation has arisen where all corps commanders may be injured? This guy is out of his mind.

Ben showed his sense of camaraderie and caught the setter who was trying to run away.

“Hey, calm down. We’re your doctors.”

“Let go of this! Let go of it!! As the attending physician, I’m just trying to prevent patients from getting sick, so why!”

“That’s the doctor’s job…”

…right?

Just as preventing a patient from taking medicine that is harmful to the body, isn’t it also within the realm of the attending physician to remove the demons that cause the patient’s injuries in advance?

“Right…what the heck! That’s not the role of a doctor!”

I almost got fooled.

“Why don’t you just sit in the provided seat and wait for the patient to arrive?”

“The world needs proactive primary care physicians!”

“…I totally enjoyed it.”

How much they must have been tormented by the corps commanders…

Fortunately, their unanswered bickering soon died down as each corps began to gather.

Each corps stands in its own row and the corps commanders sit in front of them. Soon, the Demon King and the Commander of the 0 Corps came in.

The Demon King, sitting at the head of the table, glances at the people filling the vast front yard of the Demon Castle and then gestures with his hand. One magic stone was placed in front of each legion.

“Let each group put their hands there.”

“…?”

“Those recognized by one magic stone are treated as one. They are on the same team. Every time a monster is killed, their numbers will add up and go up.”

This means that there is no need to bring separate evidence.

‘It took some hard work to make this.’

The Demon King smiled faintly.

Even though it couldn’t be maintained for a long time and was only created with a time limit of 12 hours, it consumed a lot of magical power because it had to be tied to the monsters’ life reactions. I even had to borrow Ririnel’s help to make a total of 12 units for every corps except the 10th corps, which wasn’t just one.

If she hadn’t helped, it might not have been completed.

He spoke to those who lined up and took turns placing their hands on the given magic stone.

“I’ll give you 12 hours, so you can hunt freely. The results will be revealed when we return.”

At the announcement that the competition had actually begun, each corps commander turned to his corps.

The first to speak out was Belitan, commander of the 6th Corps.

“The 6th Legion! It is our corps’ original role to be in charge of eliminating monsters! Of course, we must be superior to other corps in this field. So we cannot tolerate defeat!”

“…!”

“Put your pride on the line and hunt at the risk of death!”

“Waaaa!!”

It’s a competition, but isn’t it a bit weird to be prepared to die?

But the 6th Corps members are reacting to that again. What are they? Deon, who was standing next to the Demon King, looked bored.

Perhaps the passionate response of the 6th Legion was a stimulus to the other Legions, and Lirinel stepped forward.

“11th Legion! What is the stigma we usually hear about?!”

“?”

“—Room demon!”

It’s a demon in the corner of the room… This is my first time hearing about it.

As if Lirinel’s words were not a lie, the eyes of the 11th Legion members changed when they heard the words “demons in the corner of the room.”

“The time has finally come to rid ourselves of this stigma! Let’s show that we are not just demons who stay in a safe place and block out barriers!!”

“Waaaa!!”

“11th Legion! 11th Legion!”

At this point, other corps commanders couldn’t help but say something.

As if taking advantage of the atmosphere, each of them opened their mouths to their corps.

“4th corps babies, let’s just beat the 3rd corps guys.”

“…3rd Corps. Don’t lose to those guys from the 4th Corps who only deal with information.”

“There’s no need to tell the 1st Corps. Just take care of it yourself.”

Meanwhile, there was also a corps commander who wanted to leave without speaking. I was stabbed in the side by a deputy and eventually had to open my mouth.

“…The 12th Legion….”

“Let’s take just enough to not be embarrassed. With that feeling….”

“Let’s take just enough to not be embarrassed.”

“No, I told you to say it with that feeling. Someone told you to repeat it…!”

Dahar, the adjutant, barely moved his lips and spoke in a whisper… but the warrior’s ears caught the comedy of the corps commander copying the adjutant’s words exactly.

The adjutant is caught in the back as the catastrophe unfolds without any way to do anything. Deon coughed and laughed. The Demon King’s eyes immediately turned to Deon.

“Are you sick?”

“no.”

The Demon King narrows his eyes, as if checking the authenticity. Deon immediately changed the topic.

“More than that, corps without a corps commander also participated in the competition.”

“They wanted it. It seems like the 10th Legion was in danger of being absorbed into another corps.”

The 10th Corps is in a virtually impossible state of recovery. Because we lost not only the corps commander, but also a significant number of corps members themselves. This is evident from the fact that they were unable to participate in this competition in which all corps are participating.

The Demon King, who had no intention of ruling for a long time to come, was inclined to the idea that it would be better to disperse and absorb so many people and talents into other legions rather than replenish them.

The 8th Corps will only lose its commander, so there will be no need to worry about that, but…

“There are no confirmed issues, so it’s worth worrying about.”

The Demon King rested his elbows on the armrests and rested his chin.

At that moment, the voices of the 8th Legion members rang out.

“Let’s show that we are still alive!”

“Wow!!”

“The 8th Legion is forever!”

You have a lot of motivation. I don’t know how well the guys who mainly use shields can hunt monsters, but their momentum is good.

The cold station rolled over and contained Deon, who was still standing next to him.

“Aren’t you going to sit down?”

“Did I have a seat?”

“This is your seat.”

“…I’ll just keep standing there.”

The chairs placed side by side next to the Demon King are a specification here. It would be better if the chairs were placed one step below, like in a conference hall or other places… Oh, this is a high platform, so there can’t be any difference in height.

You can either give up conversation by placing a chair under the podium, or put chairs next to each other so they are at the same eye level.

Personally, I think the former is better… but it seems he wasn’t a demon lord.

“I paid some attention to him because he was a hero, but it’s a shame.”

“….”

Deon did not answer but looked towards his corps. Even though they recognized it by placing their hands on the same magic stone, the group came into view, split into two groups that were noticeable even from a distance.

The 0th Corps commanded by Ed and the Lofty Knights led by Milan and Cletter. From the looks of it, it looks like they are planning to split off and move in completely different directions, but I wonder if it will be okay….

When a large number of monsters came, Deon’s expression suddenly hardened as he thought of the monsters that had come at the level of a black wave. The Demon King, who was watching from the side, whispered.

“Are you worried?”

“….”

“A corps without a commander also participated, so why are you so worried? You also have Ed. The situation is much better.”

“…They’re demons, right? I’m not worried about the 0 Corps.”

“Ah, then those crazy… Knights of Lofty?”

Honestly, I don’t think those guys will die in a place like this…

They are the ones who didn’t give up and ran wild even when Deonhardt was away in a place full of demons. The Demon King’s expression turned gloomy.

“They are human.”

“Well… right…”

He’s a human who looks like a demon. Not a metaphor, really.

“…They’ll take care of themselves. I’m not saying anything to them when they say I’m worried about you.”

“….”

“It’s not like you don’t trust your subordinates.”

Deon didn’t bother to answer, but instead looked at them as they started off with great momentum, resting his forehead on his forehead. I made eye contact with Dahar, the adjutant of the 12th Corps commander, but he quickly turned his head and left, so I dismissed it as a coincidence.

‘….’

The slight boiling heat is gnawing at my nerves. I searched inside my chest and took out a cigarette… but it was confiscated by the devil.

“No matter what, it’s not right to smoke proudly in front of me.”

“….”

“Then let’s go learn the bow now.”

The Demon King stood up. He took out a bow and a quiver of arrows from the weapon rack provided for the legion and muttered as he led the way somewhere.

“Actually, it looks like he knows how to draw a bow, but I don’t think he knows how to fire multiple shots at the same time.”

“…Exactly.”

“Then you will quickly get the hang of it if you demonstrate it a few times. Of course, the best way is to practice it.”

let’s go.

He started running. Deon, who started running quickly despite being embarrassed, hardened his expression at the unexpected speed. Even though I’m leisurely kicking the ground as if I’m taking a walk, the speed is faster than I thought.

‘It seems like just removing magical power isn’t everything.’

Actually, he defeated the former warrior with a ‘sword’. Considering that, it is natural to have this level of physical ability.

The Demon King passed by several legions hunting monsters in the distance and stopped at an appropriate place.

A place with a reasonable number of monsters and no wind. Convinced that this was the best place, he raised his bow.

“It will be easy to understand because there is no wind. Look carefully.”

He took out three arrows, put them between his fingers, and pulled the string.

“You just need to calculate the angle at which each of the three arrows are pointing. However, if you raise the bow vertically and shoot like this, each arrow flies at different distances, making it inefficient. So, I usually prefer to lay the bow horizontally and shoot.

It would be best to mix and use them appropriately depending on the situation.” Three arrows flew through the wind and pierced each monster. As the nearby compatriot died, the monsters looking around saw the demon king and the hero together and slowly retreated. Strike.

Two top predators who cannot coexist are in one place. Confusion appeared in the eyes of the monsters as they felt as if day and night existed at the same time. The Demon King, who noticed them looking like they were about to

run away at any moment, grinned and bowed to Deon. “ Here’s

your mission. Make sure you catch them all before they run away.”

“….”

“The condition is not to miss a single one, and of course, only use a bow.”
