Chapter 33

4The result of slaughtering over a thousand orcs was enormous..
The average D-level low-level hunters easily hunted down dozens of orcs that would normally have been difficult to fight one-on-one, and collected all the supplies they had..
"and… Mr. Gu, look at this. There are over five hundred axes in this camp alone.."
Kim Do-han, the mining team leader who was mining resources within the gate, and Koo Dae-seong, who was just a porter at the green gate, were mesmerized by the loot in front of them..
"amount to much… It does."
4Over a thousand orcs possessed an enormous amount of supplies..
From weapons to alcohol, meat, orc boars, etc. However, as is usually the case with gates where orcs appear, the only things that are useful are weapons and certain items..
"Spirit weapon! I need to find the spirit weapon.!"
Orcs' weapons sometimes contained spirit beasts..
This is a weapon that can only be possessed with the help of an orc shaman, and can only be used if you are at least an intermediate warrior..
Most people use spirits that lighten their movements, such as the wolf spirit, or that firmly protect the body, such as the rock spirit, so this is a drop item that could not be better for low-level hunters..
"But how do you distinguish between spirit weapons? I've never been through the Oak Gate!"
Team leader Kim Do-han, who said mining was the only thing that could be done, could not distinguish between spirit weapons. Koo Dae-seong said.
"Orcs embed the spirit's teeth or pieces into their spirit weapons as accessories! You just need to find something like that.."
"I know you well, Mr. Gu.!"
50Hundreds of hunters ran around the field. Perhaps because the gate was so large, even after completing the closing conditions, there was plenty of time left until it disappeared..
"Hahaha! Mr. Gu, look at this! Twenty spirit weapons alone! twenty sacks!"
"The orc shaman's staff is seven... The heart of Daejeon Temple is five."
It was a hit. The orc shaman's staff was a favorite item of elementalists, and the great warrior's heart was used as a material to make powerful permanent reinforcements..
When a D-level hunter consumes a strengthening agent made from the heart of a great warrior, his physical abilities rapidly increase to the point where he immediately goes up to C-level..
Because it was such a powerful effect, the basic training route for most high-ranking hunters was to consume at least one..
'Just one… Should I steal it??'
It's not that I don't have that desire. It was worth at least 400 million won. There's even a saying that if you can't get a D grade in 10,000 years, you should take out a loan and try to get the heart of an orc warrior..
When will I be able to get something like this since I am only a porter at the green gate, let alone the orc gate??
"grunt……."
However, Koo Dae-seong placed the heart of Daejeon Temple in the storage box. He wanted to be strong, but his conscience was just as strong..
"Wow!…!"
It was then. When a sharp scream sounded, everyone's eyes turned towards it..
"What are you doing, you damn robot?!"
There was a hunter there arguing with a yakt spinner..

[Go'Krok's Severed Right Arm]
Gokrok's severed right arm. The remnants of Leon's body, which he had cut down with his dazzling holy sword, still remained..
The question is what to do with this?.
-Kikluk!
It was then. Yapi made a noise above Hari's head to get his attention..
"Do you have anything to say, Lord Spinner?."
-message. transmission. steel.
It seemed that Heto, the god of iron and blacksmithing, was trying to convey a message through his knights..
Yapi immediately displayed a holographic image in the shape of Heto and relayed his words in real time..
[I can feel a lot of magical power in the severed arm of the beast, Lionheart. If you absorb it through the Holy Grail, we will collect it and give you the power to help you..]
"Is that so?."
Without saying another word, Leon took out the Holy Grail he had stored away. He absorbed Gokrok's arm into the Holy Grail just as he had destroyed the Jewel of Wisdom at the Cheongju Gate..
"Tsk."
Gokrok's arm was effectively absorbed, but Leon clicked his tongue. He felt that this was a power similar to his holy power..
"It seems the beasts' worship was quite unpleasant.."
Gokrok, the shaman god of the Orcs. He also has to admit that he is a type of god, but Leon has no intention of acknowledging it as a god..
God of demons and green beasts. They are not gods, they are evil. An absolute evil unworthy of worship and to be exterminated..
Therefore, Leon does not recognize them as gods even if they are. The only God he recognizes is a God who gives love to creatures..
At that time, Arianna's voice was heard in Leon's ears..
[Lionheart. my knight.]
"……Goddess. Why are you overdoing it?."
Even without performing any rituals, the goddess herself delivered her voice. Leon reminded himself that it was not a time when he was full of sexual power like in the past..
[It's okay, my knight. This became easier thanks to absorbing the magical power of that evil beast..]
"Is that so?."
[It is because of your choice that you have reached my knight..]
select? Leon nodded..
[This magical power is no different from dense divine power. Therefore, I think you can use this power to restore the power of the holy object you want..]
"Is that true??"
Leon has four holy relics..
The first is lion heart. The mightiest heart created with sacred power inherited from the kings of Lionheart..
The person with that heart strengthens countless soldiers just by existing and gives himself infinite vitality..
The second is a holy sword. It has the same imperishability as the holy swords that the Holy Grail Knights usually possess. It means it will never break.
And the dazzling light, the light that never goes out. A sword that can cut through anything. This is a feature that is difficult to maintain for a long time with the current Leon..
The final power of the holy sword is very powerful. If you get that power back…….
"I'll put the holy sword on hold.."
[Yes, it is not time to take that power back yet. Because it consumes too much sexual power..]
The final power of the Holy Sword is the most powerful power that Leon has. The consumption is also great. It is a pie in the sky right now as we have not been able to secure believers right away..
The two remaining holy objects are the Holy Spear and the Holy Grail. Leon rarely thought hard and then made a choice..
"We will restore the function of the Holy Grail.."
[Yes, I respect my knight's choice..]
Ariana knew Leon's intention and breathed into the chalice. Gokrok's arm, replaced by the gods of the pantheon, restored the power of the Holy Grail..
The Holy Grail, which originally had only a ceremonial function, shines brightly. It is dyed with its original golden color and regains its past glory..
"iced coffee…."
Looking at that scene, Leon couldn't hide his emotion..
200When all humans other than himself died after the Great War a year ago, the Holy Grail also lost its light..
What kind of disloyalty is this? He couldn't bear to look at the Holy Grail, which had lost its light, and felt sorry for it..
Nevertheless, isn't it the Holy Grail that quenched his thirst through endless battles?.
Although not all functions were restored, Leon created holy water from the Holy Grail..
The holy water creation function is no different from before, but as the guardian of the Holy Grail, he knew..
This holy water has a different power than before..
"It has been done. This is a big harvest.."
Leon tried to tell Hari and Yapi to gather their loot and prepare to return. But the Yapi on Hari's head is not visible..
"Where did Lord Spinner go??"
"Oh, really? When did it disappear?"
It was then. A shrill scream was heard from where the loot was being stored..
"What are you doing, you damn robot?!"
There, a hunter was confronting a yappy with a wire hanging down..
"What's going on??"
"Pfft… This damn robot attacked me…."
"If you insult the Holy Grail Knight, be careful what you say and do unless you want to get cut off by the tongue.."
The hunters were clueless, but it was natural for Leon..
How could a lowly commoner like a knight... How can you treat the Holy Grail Knight chosen by God so carelessly?.
"Sir Spinner is a Holy Grail Knight who is directly below King Bon. You will treat Sir Spinner as you would treat your own king.."
"What kind of robot……."
"Shut your mouth. How dare a lowly thing call a knight carelessly?."
Leon ignored the bleeding Hunter who had cut his wrist and approached Yapi..
"What's going on, Lord Spinner?."
-booty. thief.
Hunter denied it with a pale complexion as he heard Yappy's mechanical sound..
"Oh no! You idiot… No, it's a misunderstanding!"
"You will find out if it is a misunderstanding or not if you look into it. Han Hari!"
Leon instructed Hari..
"Search Lee Ja’s arms.."
"Ah, old times!"
"Well, what are you doing! Do you believe what a real robot says? Now, wait a minute.!"
-Tuk!
A pouch fell from the arms of the resisting man. It was a crude cloth bag stained with blood..
Hari found a large heart in the pocket..
"This, this……."
The heart of the Orc warrior. What the man stole was the most valuable loot in Orc Gate..
"this… It's a misunderstanding. Me, I never……."
It was that moment. As Leon's sword flashed, the man's wrist flew into the air..
"uh?"
The man stared blankly at his wrist, which had disappeared for a while. And as soon as I realized the situation, I felt a pang of pain..
"Ahhhhh! My, my arm…!"
The hunters' attention was focused. Everyone's complexions except Yapi turned pale. Towards them, Leon calmly declared:.
"I know that your laws and common sense are different from my king’s. However, you have entered the gates of this Lion-Hearted King. That means that what you must follow is not your own law and order, but the military law of the Lion-Hearted King.."
The thief cuts his wrists. That is the solemn national law of the Lionheart Kingdom and the military law in which obedience to knights is more important than life..
"This is the king’s law and military law! Those who cannot follow should raise their hands here and now.!"
The hunters hesitated at Leon’s declaration..
This powerful survivor of another world is a being estranged from themselves..
Many of his laws and regulations were difficult for modern Earthlings to accept..
But apart from that.
-Those huge buffs…….
-I, a D-class hunter, am a C-class hunter... No, I felt like I was stronger than that..
-Wasn’t it wrong to steal in the first place? It's also the heart of the Orc warrior.?
-Shit, I don't know. Anyway, you die this way, you die that way,.
Although the hunters hesitated, they eventually decided to accept Leon's ideas..
After the cataclysm, this world was a world of top hunters, and stealing at the gate was often met with death, knowingly or unknowingly..
How on Earth would anyone notice someone who left the gate anyway? At the gate, where betrayal and theft were frequent, there was no fear of being caught no matter what you did..
Rather, I even came to the conclusion that it might be better to establish precise military laws and discipline like Leon did..
"I… Lung, Your Majesty."
At that time, there was someone who cautiously stepped forward..
"Name your name, soldier.."
Leon asked for his name even though he knew who he was. The point was to stand up in front of everyone and make a claim..
"It is called Gu, Gu Dae-seong.."
"Why did you come out, Koo Dae-seong?."
"The one who stole... Could you please keep your arm and let me take it??"
"Are you trying to put it back together??"
"……yes."
Modern medicine has advanced greatly since the cataclysm. In particular, damage caused by trauma can be repaired quickly if you hurry a little..
"However, there is no point in punishing it. Your remonstrance overshadows the punishment of the lion-hearted king.."
"Oh, I know. but……."
Koo Dae-seong looked at the hunter with his wrist cut off and made a bitter expression..
He was a lifelong D-class hunter like himself. I understood more than anyone else why he stole the heart of the Orc warrior. Above all… He has a family to take responsibility for..
"your majesty… We are people who have lived with a different common sense than your Majesty. We did not know your Majesty's rules. Now that you have made the rules known... If you give me one chance... do."
In short, it was impossible to follow military laws that one did not know about, and the price for stealing was too high..
"That makes perfect sense.."
"Sorry, sorry."
"As a soldier, you cannot talk back to a knight. However, there must be proper rules and laws on this Earth too.."
Leon created holy water. Then he said to the tearful thief, holding his severed arm..
"Be thankful that among your comrades there is someone who speaks reason.."
Pour holy water. Then something amazing happened.
The arm was regenerated from the thief's severed cross section.!
"Okay, I recovered.?"
"What is that…!"
It was amazing. The arm that was already cut off is growing back.?
Of course, there was a healer in charge of recovery. But they were just reattaching a severed arm..
Even an S-class hunter, the best healer in the country, was capable of rapid recovery, but was unable to achieve rapid regeneration where cells grow from nothing..
'crazy… With such force, it has a resilience that surpasses that of an S-class healer.?'
'What on earth is that person? Is that the power of one person??'
The hunters, and even the hunter whose arm was cut off, were dumbfounded by this miracle. No, rather, Hunter, who experienced the miracle firsthand, got down on his knees and asked for forgiveness..
"Sorry! Wrong! thank you! thank you!"
"joy. Get the fuck out of here. I respect the laws of your world and will forgive you this time, but you have lost the right to enter my military gate.."
"iced coffee……."
What on earth have you done? I regretted my choice to steal out of greed..
Leon left him behind and declared to his soldiers:.
"Soldiers who will enlist in my military service must remain. Those who don't, should share the loot and leave.."
No one chose to leave. How could those who witnessed his overwhelming power and miracles shown throughout the battle leave?.
Leon felt satisfied when he sensed the longing and anticipation in their eyes..
50Even though we let go of one of the people, it's not that bad..
"good night. Then, I will start training right away. I believe that you will not be able to withstand this training and fall off..
This is an opportunity. Do it unconditionally. unconditionally.
It took less than three days for the hunters to regret their choice with tears in their eyes..
