Moonlight Sculptor: Dad is a Legend (78)

Trebech, Goruk, Gagash.

In the Caliphate prisons, those who enjoyed eating human flesh had to revise their judgment several times.

Even when Weed hit them, he thought of revenge.

‘If only I had the chance… … .’

‘I’m going to rip that bastard’s head off and eat it.’

Even as he walked around the cells and killed prisoners, his thoughts remained the same.

‘I’ll take the intestines out of the boat and show you how delicious it is to eat them.’

‘You’re touching me? It’s just a bite.’

‘I’ll eat your eyes last.’

Although they had a skinny appearance, their eyes were filled with an aura that seemed ready to kill someone.

Nevertheless, Weed returned after killing the prisoners and conversing with the warlock Venus.

Like recognizes like.

The human hunters were completely frozen when they saw Venus.

“Is there no stronger human being?”

Weed, not satisfied with Venus, looks for another prisoner.

Trevech bowed his head slowly.

“I heard that a royal knight has arrived.”

“let’s go.”

* * *

Royal Knight Letum was a righteous man out of step with his time.

“There are many nobles in the Kingdom of Rebaid who only care about their own greed. His Majesty the King is blinded by his queen and is not taking care of state affairs… … .”

The Royal Knight’s quest is to wipe out all the nobles who are a hindrance to the nation.

It was a rebellion quest that was carried out in cooperation with other royal knights.

The quest’s difficulty level was S-class, but the rewards you could get were things like ‘Noble Passion’ and ‘Noble Honor’, and there was a reason for that.

“No amount of pretty words will change the fact that I have defied His Majesty the King. After I have dealt with the Queen and the nobles, I will quietly step aside.”

“yes?”

“Once the queen and nobles who cover His Majesty’s eyes and ears disappear, the kingdom will find its place again.”

Weed made a quick decision.

“I don’t think I can take on such a big task.”

It was the story of a romantic knight seeking justice in Roanoke.

The task of finding useful candidates among thousands of applicants.

Some things are dangerous, some things take too long, and some things have little reward.

Weed recalled the information he had obtained from the prison guard.

‘What are the armored personnel carriers of Pesos?’

(It is a military group. It is an ironclad corps boasting invincible defense power.)

A mercenary group that has participated in numerous wars across the continent and earned distinction.

(Historically, it disappeared 220 years ago.)

‘I guess I’ll have to join a mercenary group and participate in the war.’

(Probably so.)

Weed was a mercenary group to his taste.

Receiving money and compensation based on a request is a familiar practice to modern people with part-time job experience.

I felt a sense of accomplishment as I diligently carried cement and bricks up the stairs and watched apartments and villas being built.

‘The Count of the North Wall?’

(It seems to refer to the head of the Earl of Hornwood family and the person in charge of guarding the North Wall.)

‘North wall?’

(A fortress built by the kingdoms of the central continent. It was huge and had the nickname of impregnable. However, it was destroyed by monsters about 230 years ago.)

(As the North Wall collapsed, the various kingdoms of Roanoke suffered massive damage from the monsters. Many soldiers were killed, the granary was occupied, and many people across the continent were starving.)

On Hell difficulty, you are more likely to encounter important characters.

I could have gotten through stage 8 by doing some trivial quests, but I still wanted to do something more difficult.

‘If I meet the Count of the North Wall… … It must be related to the collapse of the North Wall in terms of timing.’

(That would be the case. It would be a task that would completely change history, not a personal achievement. It could be very difficult.)

This could be the most difficult quest in Caliphate Prison.

It feels like I’m deliberately seeking out difficult things, like I’ve been to the extreme of the 5th level of hell.

‘If we defend the northern wall, the continent will be a little safer.’

(Does this mean you’re willing to risk your life for people?)

‘If people spread the word about me, my daughter will think that her dad is the best.’

(…….)

‘I bet you think he’s your dad.’

(…….)

Weed is the head of the Honwood family, and he met the Guardian of the North Wall. However, he was completely different from what he had expected.

The limbs were cut off, leaving only the head and torso.

It was difficult to find a single intact spot due to the traces of torture, and there were traces of bloody tears on his face.

“Count, I would like to hear the story of the North Wall.”

At Weed’s words, Earl Lianster Hornwood barely regained consciousness and woke up.

“Do you want to hear from me the story of how the North Wall fell?”

“I want to hear it.”

“Do you want to hear the story of how I desperately ran away to protect my family when the North Wall collapsed, or do you want to hear about how I couldn’t stop the monsters?”

Earl of Lianster Hornwood.

Despite being recorded in history as the worst defeat, there was a sense of urgency.

Tiring!

You can choose which story you want to hear from Count Hornwood.

Survival of the day.

It’s a story about surviving with your family when the North Wall collapses due to monsters.

They staged a miserable escape, but were held responsible for the defeat resulting from the collapse of the North Wall.

You must lead your family and escape to a safe area.

Difficulty: A

Objective: Clear retreat, avoidance of responsibility

Reward: High reputation

Guardian of the North Wall.

The north wall has collapsed, but we are taken back in time to one month before that day.

Granted full authority by Earl Hornwood, you begin your mission to guard the North Wall.

You will be in command of 20,000 private soldiers of the Earl of Hornwood’s family.

Reinforcements from the Alliance of Kingdoms arrive in 35 days.

If we can hold out for five days, the north wall will be defended.

Difficulty: S+

Objective: Defend the North Wall

There was a time when I fought the Lessers to protect the city of Sulium in a quest with difficulty S.

This time, not only was there a + added to it, but the scale of the quest itself was huge.

‘I don’t think the first story will be that good.’

While Weed was pondering for a moment, the prison was becoming noisy.

“Pirel is dead!”

“Prisoners found dead in their cells.”

“We have a fugitive. Go! Go! Everyone!”

Beep!

An emergency was declared in the Caliphate Prison as the deaths of guards and prisoners were discovered.

“It’s a jailbreak! A jailbreak!”

“Ewww!”

The prisoners in their cells woke up and started running wild, and the whole prison became noisy.

(You must make a choice, but Earl Hornwood’s quest can be extremely dangerous.)

‘know.’

(Your abilities are great, Master, but you have only just started in Roanoke. The scale of the battle could be overwhelming.)

‘I guess so.’

Weed felt a little conflicted as he watched Count Hornwood’s quest.

‘If I succeed, it’ll be a huge success, but if I fail, everything I’ve achieved so far will disappear.’

Rather than fearing death, I thought of the many ways I would survive in Roanoke.

If you lose contact with your father on Hell difficulty and he never appears again, wouldn’t you realize that he is dead?

It was such a shame to bring such great sorrow to my daughter.

‘I have a lot of money that I can’t spend in reality. I’ve endured so many times when I wanted to buy ice cream, I didn’t turn on the air conditioner, and I couldn’t buy an expensive blanket to cover myself with.’

Regrets and disappointments about the past life, faced with a dangerous choice.

Still, Weed had no intention of backing down.

‘Will you help me?’

(I will do my best to help you.)

It wasn’t like there was no solution.

If the fragmented creatures did not exist, Count Hornwood’s quest would be objectively impossible.

Weed thought of the sculpted creatures.

‘The yellow one that eats, eats, and eats more. The complaining wyverns, the dejected Bingryong who feels weak, and the King Hydra whose heads fight each other.’

The more I thought about it, the more my confidence waned, but I had no intention of backing down.

If Roanoke is left to its own devices, its destruction is almost certain.

There is a chance that some great user will miraculously appear and save the world, but it is far more likely that he will hasten its destruction.

“I will protect the North Wall.”

I chose to go against the flow of time and become the guardian of the North Wall.

Your story begins at the North Wall.

* * *

Weed had one thought in mind while raising his daughter.

‘I hope you grow up well.’

But on the other hand, I wanted to remain young and cute.

The most loving moment was when my 6-year-old daughter hugged me and called me, “Daddy, Daddy.”

The memories of spending time with my arms around me and reading storybooks were more precious than the cash in my wallet.

‘You have to grow into an independent person who can do things on your own.’

I wanted my daughter to be a child who could do anything on her own. But I also wanted her to be able to call on her father whenever she had a hard time.

I wanted to see him be grateful for his father’s help.

‘I wish I was good at sports.’

Tennis, soccer, baseball, basketball, volleyball.

Whatever the sport, he was good at it because he inherited the talents of Weed and Seoyoon.

Still, he hoped that his athletic skills would be better than his daughter’s.

‘Level 100 in Roanoke? I need to get higher than that soon.’

I wanted to be a higher level than my daughter.

From fighting ability to sculpting, he had to be better than his daughter in every field.

(Master, why are you competing with your daughter?)

It was a question that even the AI ​​Versa found puzzling, but it was an important issue for Weed.

‘Because I need to be respected by my daughter.’

(Why should I be respected by my daughter?)

‘I can’t show you the image of a weak father.’

Although Weed had a twisted outlook on life, there was no one who could stop him.

‘I guess I’ll have to be at least the guardian of the North Wall to earn my daughter’s admiration.’

North wall.

The structures, now only recorded in history books, were built over a period of 300 years by the kingdoms of the central continent.

Between the elven forests and the dwarven mountains.

He built a fortress to block the ravines in the Baratheon Mountains.

The Guardian of the North Wall quest begins.

Play the role of the North Wall’s defender well and block the monsters.

Weed appeared on the walls of a huge fortress.

The one next to him is Count Hornwood.

Count Hornwood, who had been dying with his limbs cut off, was standing there in perfect condition.

“The scouts have returned. They said there won’t be any more monster attacks for the time being.”

“yes?”

“The workers will have a hard time. Let’s postpone the fortress maintenance work until next year after winter.”

Weed’s head was spinning at a high speed.

I was connecting the scenes I saw in the Caliphate Prison with the current situation.

“The Earl of Hornwood said leisurely.

“Let’s postpone the fall training. It would be good to give the tired soldiers a rest.”

“… … .”

“Today, we will be hosting a banquet inviting the nobles of the area, so tell all knights to attend without fail.”

“… … .”

Weed ended up discovering a big secret.

According to Korean sentiment, generals who achieved great feats on the battlefield were often abandoned by their country and suffered miserable later years.

I thought it was a quest to protect the north wall with Count Hornwood who fought hard.

But once the quest actually started, I could tell.

‘Even Count Hornwood wasn’t a man you could trust.’

As Weed looked around the fortress, he saw many places that were collapsed or in need of repair.

The soldiers guarding the north wall also laid down their weapons on the ground and stood here and there in disorder.

“I don’t like food these days.”

“If you’re going to eat dinner, the restaurant with the knife is fine. I heard the chef changed.”

“Is that so?”

Artificial intelligence Versa reported.

(Historically, the last great attack by monsters ended about 100 years ago.)

(For decades, monsters have not come near the North Wall.)

‘Does this mean that discipline has been slowly eroding over the past 100 years?’
