I, the “Clock User”, Was Kicked Out of the Craftsmen’s Guild for Being Incompetent, but at the Dungeon’s Depths, I Awakened My True Power – Even Though I Was Told to Return Because They Couldn’t Handle the Work, It’s Too Late Now, and I Will Live Freely as an SSS-class Adventurer V11C11

      Translated by Hamster --- ### Volume 11: The Eastern Frontier  **11 Aftermath of the Behemoth Incident** Cyclo's party, now with Pepemos in tow, set out to join up with the Demon Army. Along the way, Cyclo explained the details about Pepemos to everyone. "...Is this really okay?" Baal asked with suspicion, to which Cyclo agreed. "Honestly, I think it's plotting mischief. But killing it now would feel kind of... wrong." He said, looking at Pepemos. At that moment, Mist was cuddling Pepemos, stroking its head and body, showing her affection.  Pepemos seemed content, its expression clear. Just by looking at Pepemos's cute appearance, one would hesitate to put it down. "Well, if it does anything bad within my sight, I'll kill it instantly. Even if it secretly tries to increase its magical power to become stronger, I'll kill it. So, I think it won't become a major issue." "Hmm... This weak creature can't do much harm as it...

      Translated by Hamster --- ### Volume 11: The Eastern Frontier **10 A Little Trouble After the Battle** — A group was rushing towards the wasteland where the DEM stood. They were clad in uniforms the color of the dry earth, equipped like scouts. Unresponsive to the DEM that was beginning to fade into light, they silently ran across the wasteland. "--- What's the rush?" At this call, the group immediately stopped and took a defensive stance, alert to their surroundings. Surrounding them, Karim, Alice, and Mist had taken positions on three sides. "..." "Silent, huh? Well, after preparing such a monster, what you wanted to do isn't clear." Nodding, Karim drew his sword. Seeing this, the group quickly turned and tried to retreat. But there, another figure was already in place. "...! A demon!!" "Hmph. That's your first reaction?" Baal was there, already with his spear at the ready. "If it were Cyclo Owen, he could subdu...

        Translated by Hamster --- ### Volume 11: The Eastern Frontier **09: Final Weapon** Through the sensors of the DEM, Cyclo observed the Behemoth and pondered: (I haven't seen its breath attack yet... With that power, it must not be a technique they can use easily.) Given that, it's likely that in this situation, the Behemoth would resort to a breath attack. As Cyclo remained vigilant, the Behemoth let out a cry, as if making up its mind. 'GRRROOOOAAARRRR!!!' Then, a dark red magical force began to emanate from the Behemoth's entire body. The intensity was fierce, as if it were squeezing out power at the cost of its life.  This magical energy also gathered in the Behemoth's mouth, seemingly preparing for a breath attack with an intent to self-destruct. A poorly timed attack might provoke a breath that would cause damage far and wide. It was necessary to guide the breath attack skyward and neutralize its energy entirely. Thus, Cyclo decided to unleash t...

      Translated by Hamster --- ### Volume 11: The Eastern Frontier **08: Defeating the Mythical Creature** Reacting to Cyclo's command— the keyword "Mode: Infight," the six thrusters on DEM's back activated. Remarkably, they detached from DEM's body and began to fly independently. These thrusters, all drone thrusters, could fly and operate autonomously, each equipped with the same "Magical Degeneration Furnace" as DEM's engine system. ---By compressing enormous amounts of magic power to the extreme, they create spatial anomalies, generating a miniature pseudo-dungeon. This pseudo-dungeon draws practically limitless magic from the realm of gods, enabling the use of an immense amount of magic power that dwarf's even Cyclo's total magic capacity. This is the essence of the 'Magical Degeneration Furnace' in DEM and the drone thrusters. Naturally, they can function as mere acceleration devices on DEM's back, but they can also connect ...

     Translated by Hamster --- ### Volume 11: The Eastern Frontier  **07: The Descent of the False God** While the four continued to stall— Cyclo was in a distant wilderness, alone, working on generating his trump card. With his eyes closed and concentrated, he held his hands over a massive magical circle that spanned dozens of meters, continuously activating 'Clock Creation'. He meticulously gathered the magic power necessary to create each part from the heart to the extremities, following the design memorized in his mind. When the magic power was sufficient to generate all parts according to the design, his trump card was finally about to descend. (That huge breath attack... it's not something that can be blocked repeatedly.) Even as he progressed with the creation, Cyclo couldn't help but think. The breath attack that reached into the sky with a booming sound was visible even from where Cyclo was. While he felt proud of his companions for blocking such a powerful ...

     Translated by Hamster --- ### Volume 11: The Eastern Frontier  **06: Full Effort to Stall** 'Gwoooooo!!' Enraged by the damage, Behemoth raised its front leg, aiming to crush the three with a stomping attack. All three instantly leaped back to avoid it. With a boom, an explosive low sound echoed, and shockwaves spread around. "Holy Arrow!!" While retreating, Mist cast a spell, targeting not the legs but Behemoth's eyes. Behemoth noticed the multiple arrows of light flying towards it and shook its head to deflect them. The attack was ineffective against its strong, durable scales, causing no damage. But seizing the moment when Behemoth's vision was impaired by its own head movement, Baal leaped again. "Here I go!! ---'Pierce' Barrage!!" Baal activated his only skill 'Pierce' while now aiming for Behemoth's neck. His mastery of this single skill made 'Pierce' not just increase the penetrating power of his attack but als...

     Translated by Hamster --- ### Volume 11: The Eastern Frontier  **05: Towards Cooperation** "There's a secret strategy to defeat that monster—Behemoth! It'll take some time, but my friends are buying that time for me! Trust me, if you charge at it with the whole army, you'll just increase the casualties!" Cyclo pleaded, but Baal shook his head. "Even if that's true, we are beings meant to fight. That's what an army, what warriors are. Whether we trust you or not, we'll stake our lives to defeat the enemy. Those without that resolve have no place on this battlefield." "---Then!!" Cyclo grabbed Baal by the collar. "If that's what you think, then why are you here?! What's the reason for holding that spear?!" Baal's eyes widened as if taken by surprise. "You don't want to die, right? Fighting isn't your goal, right?! Will your spear protect anyone by getting crushed by such an unreasonable monster ...
