Chapter 599

Chapter 599: Third record (2)

The fifth layer of the labyrinth, the Great Demon Mirror.

This layer has quite a monumental meaning to explorers.

Not only was it from this time that explorers began to work in groups by clans in earnest…

‘Treatment changed.’

If you start as a human, you practically no longer have to worry about taxes from the 5th floor.

That is why the residents of Lapdonia choose the 5th floor explorer as the best spouse.

Should I say it is similar to joining a large company?

In fact, most explorers on the 5th floor climb the labyrinth as if they were going to work. And when you get to the 5th floor, you go to the hunting ground you always go to and mine magic stones without stopping until the labyrinth closes, and you get paid in proportion to your performance.

Well, there are a lot of people who don’t like that and run their own teams instead of joining a clan…

‘Can we just think of those people as successful self-employed people?’

Anyway, no matter what happens, it doesn’t change the fact that he is the number one groom.

But…

‘It’s so ironic.’

Spouse preference is highest on the 5th floor, but preference gradually decreases from the 6th floor.

Oh, by the way, the source is a book from the library.

It is said that they conducted a direct survey of over 10,000 residents and compiled it into a book…

The reason for the decline in preference here is somewhat interesting.

#1: I thought it would be too dangerous.

2nd place: I think it would be difficult to meet in reality.

I thought number 3 would be eccentric.

In the case of 3rd place, I wonder if this is something, but in fact, it is not an unfounded prejudice.

Because time for explorers flows differently than for ordinary people.

The degree of mental wear and tear is different, and from the 6th floor and above, the stress index that occurs during exploration increases rapidly.

Perhaps that’s why many famous explorers were known to have eccentric personalities.

“What are you thinking, Baron?”

Soon, I ended my thoughts as I heard the village chief’s voice.

“Ah… I was just checking the surroundings for a moment.”

I didn’t just say this to make a fuss, it was true.

I was really looking around and my thoughts eventually led me there.

The fifth layer of the Labyrinth, the Great Demon Mirror.

Unlike the scary place names, this layer is a relatively safe layer.

But…

“It’s a little different from the place I knew.”

The place where we woke up was a little different from the 5th floor that we often passed by.

Although the terrain and overall atmosphere were the same, there was one crucial difference.

“There is no way a level 3 monster would appear in the Great Demon World.”

On one of the paths leading down, there is a level 3 monster blocking the path and watching us.

“Man, that’s a Vandemon, right?”

Vandemon.

A ‘rare’ monster that is difficult to encounter due to several conditions for its appearance.

I haven’t been able to receive experience points yet.

‘We don’t need essence, so there’s no need for the three of us to go through all the trouble of trying to catch it…’

At first, we tensed up as soon as we saw that guy, but for some reason. , he just looked up at us from below and didn’t come closer.

“Do you think you know which direction to go?”

“…at all. I’m not getting any intuition. From the moment I came here, it was as if my ability itself had disappeared…”

Hmm, that’s right…

“But still, I can’t help but feel like this might be my final ordeal.”

“Uh… isn’t that just your wish?”

“Baron… That’s a bit… doesn’t it? Well, I can’t deny it…”

Gahyun sighed and expressed her complaints.

“It’s not. even time for it to end. “It’s already been more than half a year since I came here!”

As soon as I finished chapter 2, I woke up in chapter 11 and couldn’t offer any consolation.

That’s because I don’t even have 24 hours of play time right now.

“Okay, let’s put our heads together. First of all , to sum it up, it seems like we need to find the evil spirit here. Which direction do you think would be best for the gentlemen to go?”

Jerome cleared away the chaotic atmosphere and settled the situation.

And…

“Isn’t that natural?”

“It’s a problem that doesn’t need to be thought about.”

Gahyun and I answered Jerome at the same time.

What is this again?

“Hey, you said it first—.”

“The Baron speaks first—.”

I tried to make concessions, but this time, we ended up confusing each other as our words overlapped.

“….”

“….”

It was a situation where both sides were giving in, so should I just say it ?Well, I think so too, so what if they overlap again?

When I was thinking about that and paying attention.

‘Okay now.’

Seizing the timing, I opened my mouth and pointed to a route blocked by a vandemon.

But…

“I—.”

“I am-.”

Why does this old man keep doing this?

Annoying.

“Are you doing this on purpose?”

“That can’t be possible!”

When I glare, Gahyun looks at me with an unfair look in her eyes.

The village chief calmed us down with a deadpan expression on this ridiculous skit.

“Don’t be childish about something like this. Anyway, seeing as they both just pointed. to the same place, I think they have the same idea. Is that right?”

“Well… it seems that way…”

“I agree.”

This time, Gahyun and I spoke at the same time.

“of course-.”

“of course-.”

No, if they even type the lines the same way, I feel really bad now…

Oh, I don’t know.

I just decided not to care and opened my mouth, and unfortunately, Gahyun did the same.

“I have to go there.”

“Wouldn’t it be okay if we just avoid that place?”

After a moment of silence, Gahyun and I’s gazes collided in the air once more.

“…?”

“…?”

I really don’t get along with this old man.

***

“There’s danger out there, so wouldn’t it be wise to go somewhere else?”

Surprisingly, the starting point of Gahyun’s logic was similar to mine, but the result was completely different.

The cause was in the way of thinking itself.

“No. “There is something dangerous, so it is right to go from there.”

This chapter is about finding the evil god Karui.

And it seemed to me that Karui was most likely located in one of four types of canyons.

Because treasure is usually hidden in such places.

“Why would you go through all that trouble by going somewhere? else when are there friendly signs?”

“It is too early to conclude that it will be in vain. “Maybe we should search the other three places and find something we need to find, or something like that!”

“Then what if it becomes more difficult to attack as time passes? “A wrong choice can lead to irreversible consequences.”

“That’s too much of a leap!”

“In a sharp crack, we must remain vigilant and open to all possibilities. Especially if it’s your first time entering. But seeing you say such clumsy things…”

“…?”

“You are a wizard after all. “Not an explorer.”

“What?!”

Looking at Gahyun, whose face was red as if her blood pressure had risen, reminded me of the time before on Library Island when I was debating which of the level 1 monsters to summon. Even back then, we were arguing just like this.

” Anyway, even if we talk about it, isn’t it the Count who makes the decision? Count, you make your decision.”

There was no reason to waste time, so I left the decision to the village chief, and of course the outcome was decided.

“Hmm… I think it would be better to follow the Baron’s opinion.”

The village chief pretended to think about it for a moment, then raised my hand and that was the end of the conversation on this topic.

“That kind of thing…!”

Gahyun did not seem to like this decision, but could not directly criticize the words of the village chief, who was in charge.

‘Okay, then the route has been decided.’

Gahyun walked away with a bitter smile, and the relationship between me and that old man may have deteriorated a bit, but this was probably a good thing. No, I think it was actually a

bit refreshing.

I approached the archbishop, who continued to bother me.

“Archbishop, why have you been alone since a while ago?”

“iced coffee! I was thinking about a moment. About that… evil spirit. “I thought maybe I could at least meet that evil spirit here.”

“Why is it difficult to meet you?”

“Well… I’m not sure.”

The archbishop’s expression looked very disturbed as he said that.

Is it something like the agony of only faithful religions?

As a non-religious person, I don’t understand, but this wasn’t something I cared deeply about or was involved in.

“I don’t care what you’re worried about, but don’t get caught up thinking about something else. “Do you understand?”

“…I will take care of it.”

After saying that.

Anyway, after checking the status of the Archbishop, I took the time to briefly explain the Bandemon.

For your information, the role of teacher was Gahyun, not me.

Although I didn’t have the mindset of an explorer, that didn’t mean I was lacking in knowledge.

‘There are a few details missing, but…’

Well, I guess it doesn’t matter.

If I go into detail, it will only seem strange.

…It’s also annoying.

「The half-demon has been defeated. EXP+7」

***

The battle with the grade 3 monster Vandemon was not very difficult. That’s because right now we’re wrapped up in fraudulent buffs.

The priest’s divine power is infinite. The wizard

‘s powerful ancient magic

doubles all of the knight’s stats.

Even considering that I cannot perform the role of a tank as reliably as before, with this level of bonus, it was no problem to cut down a grade 3 monster.

‘Maybe the three of us should have tried to catch it…’

The only loot from the Vandemon was a magic stone, but I wasn’t too disappointed.

Should I say it’s a small thing like that?

I was more concerned about other parts than that.

“It’s not particularly difficult. “Why can a person of such age be so scared?”

“…What did the Baron say just now?”

“Nothing?”

“I’m not saying anything! “Isn’t that what you just said to me?”

“But you’re not young, are you?”

It may seem a little childish, but I accepted Gahyun’s words without saying a word.

That’s right….

‘Since when did it keep climbing up? Although he is from a noble family, he has no title.’

We need to get our discipline right at least once and move on.

“Uncle…”

Just as I was about to shoot Gahyun some more, Erwen calls me.

“…Why all of a sudden?”

“It’s just that…” ”

“It’s just that.” “Speak quickly.”

“Well… I feel like I don’t feel like a man today…”

For some reason, I couldn’t help but laugh at those cautious words.

“What do you mean it’s not like me?”

Now that I think about it, everyone always had their own expectations of me.

This is the case with Amelia and Misha…

“Oh, why is this the image you like instead of the one you like?”

As I said that and took a step forward, Erwen looked at me and took a step back.

This is the first time I have ever seen an expression of fear.

“what… this.”

When I saw that expression, I immediately came to my senses.

At the same time, I could clearly feel the torrent of emotions that were swirling around without the slightest sense of discomfort. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

It was such a natural change that I didn’t even realize it until a little while ago…

“Nimiral.”

Realizing my current state, I placed the hammer I was holding on the floor.

And….

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

He bent down and hit his forehead hard with the hammer.

“Hehe…I’m coming to my senses now.”

The moment I entered the Great Demon Sutra, a problem arose in my head.

No, maybe…

“It’s barbaric… ”

“… ”

“… Why are you looking at me like that all of a sudden?”

I may not be the only one having problems.
