Chapter 382

Episode 382 Us (1)

What is it? Why is he here?

I didn’t even think of that at first.

thump thump thump.

My heart beat faster than when I was fighting the deep-sea giant, and my head was blank as if an 8-ton truck had been driven into the back of my head at full speed.

The only thing that came to my senses was after he spoke first.

“Hey, what are you, did you really catch it alone?”

It’s not that many times I’ve had a conversation with that figure, but it’s a voice and way of speaking that I’ll never forget.

‘Lee Baek-ho.’

The moment he realized that this moment was real, the old man sitting next to him came into view.

‘Destroyer.’

At first glance, there were two of them.

‘At that time, when we were fighting over corn and what, when did this bastard and Baekho become allies?’

My mind was complicated.

Apart from being colleagues, why are they here? Could it be for me? No, what happened to Erwen and Amelia who were behind him?

I just told them to wait until I get back.

“It’s amazing. I’ve never heard of a kid like you.”

“I’ve never heard of it. Isn’t there a guy who was talked about a while ago?”

When the Annihilator cut off his words, Lee Baek-ho said, “Ah!” He nodded his head with a smile on his face.

“That’s right. He’s there, right? They look similar.”

“I’m not sure yet.”

“That’s a problem you need to find out now. Hey, are you Suits or something?”

It was incredibly rude for a first-time conversation, but I felt rather relieved.

‘……I didn’t come here by pointing out to me.’

Lee Baek-ho’s target is not me.

And if that’s the case, maybe…

‘The target must be in this space itself.’

Weren’t we still wary of the ‘competitors’ who broke the Rock Island event?

Maybe they were them.

‘Then this means that this meeting was completely coincidental…’

It was the time when the thought led to that point.

“Can you answer me?”

Ha, bastard.

“Why don’t you reveal your identity first?”

At my question, he rather smiled as if he liked it.

“Lee Baek-ho. What about you?”

“The person you think is right.”

“It’s really amazing. Meeting all the celebrities in a place like this.”

“celebrity?”

“I heard you fought 4:1 with Noark’s ponytails? A guy like that fell from the sky. Isn’t that famous? It’s also the fact that the fairy lady cherishes him after the blood spirit.”

There was nothing to refute.

The population distribution of the labyrinth decreases exponentially as you go up.

Even if you only go to the 7th floor and cross a few bridges, it must have seemed strange to see Kangja, whose name and face were unknown, in the midst of knowing each other.

“Wait a minute, but doesn’t that mean the fairy lady is also here?”

“Come to think of it, I can’t even see the wizard. Maybe I didn’t run into them because I was teleporting over.”

I breathed a sigh of relief at the conversation between the two.

According to that word, Erwen and Amelia are safe.

“So what’s your business?”

I said that and walked slowly in the direction of the integer. If there was a fight, he planned to consume this essence right away.

Even if the color is different, I decided that it would be helpful right now.

“Stop moving.”

At that time, Lee Baek-ho spoke to me in a playful tone.

“For now, don’t touch the essence.”

‘essence?’

It was a clue that would help analyze the current situation.

Lee Baek-ho’s purpose is deep, the essence of a giant.

Normally, this would have been all of the reasoning, but the brain heated with survival instinct threw questions about the parts that could have been overlooked inadvertently.

‘Why did they come all the way here to save the 9th floor, where dozens of deep-sea giants appear?’

This can mean two things.

[Hyung said he broke 10 times? Will you be like me in 10 years? In fact, I have almost no corner to become stronger now…]

Contrary to what he said to me then, in fact, Lee Baek-ho’s level is not that high.

Or that it was impossible to go to the ninth floor.

Took.

First of all, I stopped walking towards Jeongsu.

It was the judgment that I didn’t know how that crazy guy would react if I went closer.

But…

“This is my spoils.”

It wouldn’t be a good idea to just show me how to follow directions too meekly.

When I asked in a slightly belligerent voice, Lee Baek-ho raised his hand and made a gesture as if to calm down.

“Whoa whoa what are you being so sensitive about? I just stopped to see if we could make a deal.”

“transaction?”

“What I need is that red essence there. If you don’t really need it, why don’t you change it?”

To be honest, that didn’t make much sense.

So I asked without knowing.

“Why do you want to make a deal?”

As you can tell from my rude attitude, Lee Baek-ho considers me subordinate to him.

But why do you propose a ‘deal’ anyway?

Leaving the easier way out.

“Well then, should I kill him and steal it?”

Baekho Lee gave an unexpected answer.

“Honestly, it’s annoying that you’re walking in vain… It’s not like you’re doing anything strange, isn’t it ugly that you’re whining about what you caught first because you’re faster than me?”

“…what if I decline the deal?”

“Well? Will you come back next time while regretting it?”

A way of thinking that is so normal that it can only be seen.

I was speechless at this, but looking back, it’s not something I can’t understand.

Isn’t that the guy whose ultimate goal is to return to Earth?

I must have set my own line in one way or another.

Just like I did until now.

“good night.”

Unexpectedly, the situation is more gentle than I thought.

In the worst case, I had in mind the situation where I was hit and run with no questions and answers.

If this is the case, it seems that there will be no such situation.

The trade offer itself isn’t bad for me either.

“What will you give me if I pass the integer?”

I wondered if he was worried about my preemptive request, and then he posted an item in the trading window.

“The essence of the deep-sea giant.”

“……?”

“I’ve been holding them regularly lately. There’s a blue one and a green one—”

What?

I immediately hung up and answered.

“Make it green.”

One good news has increased.

At least for now.

***

“What do you think you wanted?”

“Because green has a higher average transaction price. Besides, you can save on the price of the test tube.”

Lee Baek-ho nodded his head in agreement with the immediate answer without the slightest gap, then took out a test tube from the subspace.

“But how do you believe it belongs to a deep-sea giant?”

“If you were going to cheat me badly, wouldn’t you have offered me a deal like this?”

Huh, staring at me for being suspicious.

“So what about the deal? I’m going to do it or not.”

“……Try to believe it.”

As soon as I answered, Lee Baek-ho threw the test tube.

Throwing a test tube itself is a concept that I don’t quite understand, but…

Well, I got it well anyway.

“If you get something, will you move away?

As soon as I moved to the side, the Annihilator approached and poured the essence into the test tube.

With this, the deal is over.

‘You didn’t ask Lee Baek-ho to eat it. So, are you trying to feed your colleagues?’

As I was quietly observing and organizing my thoughts, Lee Baek-ho spoke to me.

“Did you say suits?”

“That’s right.”

“Your words are back? Just do what’s comfortable for you.”

“This is comfortable.”

“So, then. Anyway, I want to ask you something. Is it okay?”

As soon as I sent a glance to listen, he asked me directly.

“Are you Bjorn Yandel?”

He doesn’t have a real reverse gear.

pounding-!

My heart was pounding, but I didn’t try to express it.

I just ask back as if I heard a strange sound.

“Why are you asking that question?”

“Didn’t a guy whose name and face weren’t well known pop up out of nowhere? But the fairy lady called that guy Mister and followed him around. The girl wouldn’t be an idiot either, but isn’t it a bit strange?”

It was for a good reason.

In fact, the members of the Round Table were also suspicious of me for this reason.

“So what’s the answer?”

Soon, he stared at me intently.

It was obvious what he was doing.

‘You’re wearing a lie detector.’

The lie detection skill Lee Baek-ho had.

‘If you keep your mouth shut, you’ll interpret what you want to interpret. Maybe it will come out forcefully.’

I quickly organized my thoughts.

There are two candidates presumed to be Lee Baek-ho’s detection skills.

One has the ability to distinguish between truth and lies, while the other only picks out lies.

Some might say that they are the same, but the two are distinctly different.

Because I have a present from Aurl Gavis.

In the case of the latter, if I activate the skill and there is no response, my words will be accepted as truth by him.

‘…If I do well, I might be able to find out what essence I ate.’

It didn’t take long to make a decision.

“I am not Bjorn Yandel.”

As soon as I answered while looking at him face to face without avoiding his eyes, he smiled.

“okay? It’s a pity.”

His tone and expression seemed to show no doubt about my answer.

Thanks to that, I was able to figure out one of the many essences he must have eaten.

If it was the former, I wouldn’t have been able to understand it that easily.

I can’t tell whether it’s true or false. It must have been a natural reaction to question what he didn’t do.

‘Well, I roughly expected it when I saw that he didn’t doubt anything I said in the previous conversation, but with this, it became clear.’

This is like having a way to gain the upper hand in a conversation with Lee Baek-ho.

However, I wasn’t satisfied with this and asked,

“Can

I ask you a question too?

” ….”

“They said it was okay to do it.”

A question ticket was obtained naturally.

I had a moment of contemplation.

“Aren’t you going to do it?” There

were a lot of questions I wanted to ask

.

Why did he become a colleague with the Annihilator?

And…

[She is now one of Lee Baek-ho’s companions.]

Why did the clown say that Misha is your colleague?

Where is Misha now? ”

…” I

swallowed

many questions that I wanted to ask right away.

The moment I ask such a question, he will show more interest in me than now.

Not yet.

I am Lee Han-soo . “I can’t even predict how this guy will react.

I still don’t know what kind of picture he draws.

Yes, so…

“Lee Baek-ho.”

I called his name.

And looking at the guy with a good pronunciation for a local, he smiled and asked,

“Since the story of Bjorn Yandel came out, I’ll ask.”

” What?”

“Why do you spread rumors that Bjorn Yandel is an evil spirit?”

”

You already know who I am?”

“It has to be. It’s a famous name.”

“Yes? Well, everyone I know these days knows.”

Although he was a bit startled, Lee Baek-

ho didn’t show much doubt at my question. It’s me who spread the rumor.”

“So, what’s the answer?”

At my words, he snapped his finger on his waist as if in agony.

Then he opened his mouth.

“The author’s colleagues are coming.”

Filled a test tube with essence. Lee Baek-ho changed his expression at the advice of the destroyer

. Then you should jump out quickly.”

“Is there even a need for that?

” Even if I don’t know, Grandpa will turn on the lights in his eyes and try to kill me. Nyaong did that. Don’t touch my former colleagues.”

“But how will she know what’s going on here?”

Hearing the ruinologist’s words, the hand holding the hammer tightened without my knowledge.

And in that moment.

“…don’t cross the line, grandpa . .”

Lee Baek-ho, who had been talking pleasantly with a smile throughout the conversation, lowered his voice coldly.

“…It was a joke. I use multiple teleportation magic.”

I was relieved at the conversation between the two, but anger welled up.

If it’s meow, I’m sure you’re referring to Misha.

When I heard that Misha became Lee Baek-ho’s colleague, I felt a sense of loss that I hadn’t felt before.

But… ….

“Wait,”

I said, holding back all my emotions.

“I wish I had answered the question before I left.”

“Oh, that’s right. Didn’t you ask why I brought up such rumors?”

Lee Baek-ho, who had an expression that seemed to have forgotten, glanced at the Annihilator.

Then the Annihilator clicked his tongue with a ‘ttt’ sound and nodded. For

some reason, his tongue clicked . A sense of déjà vu emerged from the sound.

Should I say it sounds like a situation I’ve seen often?

Why? Why is it familiar?

That was the moment that thought ran through my head

.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

! what?’

It was so sudden that it took quite a long time to figure out the situation

.

When such a possibility popped up in my confused mind. Sёarᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Ah! what! Grandpa!”

Lee Baek-ho’s acting tone continued.

“What if I turn on the teleportation magic while I’m in the middle of a conversation! If you do this, you won’t be able to answer!”

“…….”

“You said Shuitz? sorry i’ll tell you later It’s not because it’s a really hard question to answer, really. Huh? Okay—”

Flash-!

Lee Baek-ho’s voice dispersed and disappeared the moment the light flashed brightly.

He was so dumbfounded that he couldn’t even speak properly.

Gwah.

Yes, he’s a Korean too.

It’s been a long time since I’ve felt fooled.

I came here From then on, it was my usual position.

‘No, wait…’

Feeling sorry for me belatedly, I hurriedly broke the test tube.

“[The essence of the deep sea giant] permeates the character’s soul.

” ..Fortunately, the integer was real.
