“What’s going on!”

“That, that….”

Dwarves rushing around with puzzled faces.

That was then.

Zeng-

The uniform cracked, and the black darkness opened its mouth.

And a black figure appeared in it.

It was in the form of a human, but it was lumped together as if it were made of darkness.

“Suck!”

The moment he saw this, the dwarf king’s eyes widened as if torn apart.

He squeezed his trembling hand tightly.

‘I… I… feel fear?’

Having risen to the level of a transcendent called a demigod, he felt fear when he saw the black figure.

If he were to do that, the condition of the other Dwarves was obvious.

“Ok-”

“Grump-”

The dwarves fell in place with their eyes turned over one by one.

The dwarf king clenched his fists and shouted.

“What kind of guy are you!”

The king of the dwarves who turned mana to fight the fear.

Then the black figure looked back at him.

And when the black-shaped ship split, something came out of it and fell in front of the king.

dump-

The king’s face hardened when he saw this.

“This···?”

It was the corpse of an old man with no appearance.

Had it not been for the clothes he was wearing, he would not have noticed that the old man was the expedition they had sent.

As the king looked down at the corpse, a low, murky voice echoed through the cave.

[Interesting.]

The king intuitively recognized that the master of the voice was a black figure.

[Ira who treats other people’s lives as insignificant because of my greed…]

The king felt the black figure smiling.

In fact, his voice was full of laughter.

[I really like it.]

“·················ogue.”

[Are you sure there is no mineral that your kind cannot handle? That’s why he wants to prove his ability through these guys.]

A black figure that seems to know everything already.

The king just stared at the black figure.



[If you really want to prove it, let me help you.]

As soon as the words were finished, the black figure reached out his hand.

Something flew out of his hand and crashed into the king’s feet.

bang-

“········································································?!”

The king’s gaze reached the black mineral that had been smashed through the marble.

Meanwhile, the black figure continued to speak.

[If you want to prove yourself like that, deal with it.]

“What is this…?”

[It is steel. It’s from another world you’ve longed for.]

“·················ogue.”

[I wonder… will you really be able to handle it?]

The king responded with a voice filled with anger to the slightly ridiculed tone.

“It’s fun. If you say so, I will show you. There is nothing our clan cannot handle.”

[One month from today. Don’t come back.]

Having said that, the black figure walked towards the open dimensional door.

The king shouted behind him.

“What is your identity?”

[You already know the answer.]

“·················ogue.”

A short answer was heard, and the black form crossed the dimension.

The dimensional door that opened soon closed as it was.

The Gollian Palace, where the winds and waves in the area swept like that.

The dwarven king murmured as he looked down at the minerals embedded in his feet.

“It is the steel of God…”

The corners of his lips twisted.

“Don’t do it.”

A being presumed to be a deity who suddenly opened the dimensional door and appeared.

And the minerals he left behind.

What had happened until now was forgotten in the king’s mind.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

The only thing that filled his head was the thought of smelting the steel left behind by the gods to prove that their smelting skills surpassed the gods.

And the next day.

The king’s order was given to the Gollian Kingdom.

The king’s order to gather 999 top dwarf craftsmen.

[Dwarves who want to prove themselves to be the best by dealing with minerals that do not exist in this world, come to the palace.]

And not long after, the best blacksmiths of the Gollian Kingdom gathered at the palace.

The word “best” in the Gollion Kingdom was also said to be the best on the continent.

The 999 Dwarf craftsmen gathered in that way.

Their faces were filled with the joy of being able to work with minerals that did not exist in the world.

But it didn’t last long.

“No, it does not melt!”

Even though the best furnace of the Gollian Kingdom heated it overnight, the ‘Steel of the Gods’ hardly showed any sign of melting.

Afterwards, he raised the firepower of the furnace by mobilizing all means, and even hired a noble wizard to light the fire of mana, but there was no significant improvement.

A month later, the promised day.

[Did it fail?]

“…just ran out of time. If given more time, I can definitely melt it.”

[is it? If so, I’ll give you one year this time.]

The black figure who opened the portal and visited the Gollion Kingdom again promised one year and left.

And one year after that.

[Still?]

“There are so many methods we haven’t tried yet! Give me some more time!”

[Hmm… Then I’ll give you ten times as much time. I will come back in 10 years.]

The Black Form promised another 10 years and left.

A period of 10 years obtained from an unidentified god.

The Dwarves scoured the continent and found things with strong firepower.

But it was all in vain.

Poison filled the eyes of a thousand artisans, including the Dwarf King.

“Hit it! Hit it and hit it again! Chop it up and melt it!”

The king’s orders fell, and the craftsmen clinged to the god’s steel.

One day, two days, a week, a month…

Time passed day by day.

land- land-

The hands of the craftsmen beating the steel exploded, and hundreds and thousands of hammers were worn away.

Still, God’s steel showed no signs of breaking.

Hammering continued for 10 years.

At last the promised day came, and the black figure opened the portal and found it without fail.

[Did it fail?]

The king bowed his head at the sound of disappointment and joy.

The king and his 999 father-in-law, who thought there was nothing they could not handle, trembled in anger and frustration.

Seeing this, the black figure said.

[O arrogant and foolish people. How about experiencing limitations?]

The king answered the black-shaped question.

“Not yet… there will be a way yet!”

The king’s words were followed by 999 artisans.

“Yes!”

“We have a method we haven’t tried yet.”

Not one of them admits failure.

At this, the black figure spoke in a tone full of laughter.

[is it?]

With him, the steel of the gods that frustrated the dwarf craftsmen floated to mind.

[Then find a way.]

As the black figure raised his hand, his steel rose high and high.

A lump of metal that escaped the royal palace and ascended into the sky.

A black energy emanated from the steel that had risen to a far-off height.

“uh?”

“What is this?”

It engulfed the kingdom in an instant.

Furthermore, it spread throughout the continent.

And···.

𝘳𝘢𝘢𝘯𝘢

The black energy was sucked back into the steel and swallowed everything.

It happened so quickly.

The black energy was also spreading.

The Gollion Kingdom spread over the vast territory and all the dwarves of the continent disappeared into the steel.

Everything was instantaneous.

It was no different than a royal palace.

A beautiful palace that many people admired and envied.

Where it stood, now only a barren waste remained.

The dwarf king and 999 artisans stood on a vast wasteland.

“Hey, Inoo Om! What is this!”

While the craftsmen were standing stunned by the sudden event, the king saw the black figure performing his tricks and cried out.

To this he replied.

[Didn’t I say there was a way? If so, find a way. more desperately than anyone else. If you truly find a way, then everything will find its place.]

In response, the black figure walked into the portal.

“Stop!”

The king of the dwarves, who had lost even his most painful illness, clenched his fists and rushed to the black figure.

Although he said he had no weapons, the king’s spirit in the state of transcendence was fierce.

Tsupat-

The new king has disappeared.

The king suddenly appeared above the black figure’s head and swung his fist.

But his body was still in the air.

‘·······················ogue

The king’s body stood tall as if time had stopped alone.

The black figure said to him.

[Those whose fate is bound by steel. be frustrated In that frustration, regret and regret it. Your arrogance.]

After finishing his last words, the black figure stumbled into the dimensional gate.

The dwarf king looked at the portal that slowly closed with bloodshot eyes.

***

“So all the dwarves on the continent have disappeared. Leaving only the king and 999 father-in-law behind.”

“·················ogue.”

“The remaining Dwarves had no choice but to risk their lives to save their race. He tried to melt the steel by any means possible. However, as time passed, the desired results did not come out.”

Merlin, who heard Guffin’s story, looked at him and asked.

“The foolish king and his 999 father-in-law were Pharaoh . . .”

“Yes. Me and these friends.”

While Guffins were talking, many dwarves had gathered around them.

Merlin murmured, examining their faces.

“For those who have lived for 10,000 years, everyone has firm skin.”

“As the fates of the race were bound by steel … our fates were also bound together, and time stopped to flow.”

Guffin glared at the darkened ore in his hand with a cursed look.

“I tried and tried again. I have studied for thousands of years solely to rescue the race trapped within.”

“·················ogue.”

“Still, there was no way out. As time passed, we gradually grew weary and crazy. The gigantic puppet show you mentioned is the product of our madness.”
