404. Because I believed too much. 2
Pak Pak.
The more I dug up the floor, the more strange sensations came to me.
‘Black magic secret! Deep in the abyss!’
Obviously, all I could see was soil and sand, but the more I dug, the more convinced I was that there was something there.
Quarrr.
And finally.
‘What is this...’
Ma Cheol-hyeon has been underground for hundreds of years and thousands of years. No, I found an old ruin that must have been tens of thousands of years.
‘Why is something like this here?’
It is not uncommon to discover new ruins in Azul Continent, but they are rarely found in general fields, let alone inside dungeons.
“...”
More than anything, an ominous aura came out strongly from inside the ruins.
-Should I say that I feel like I touched something I shouldn’t have touched?
It is unlikely that he will die if he goes inside, but Ma Cheol-hyeon’s instinct has sent a signal to bury this ruin even now.
It was because he had an intuition that something would happen if he went inside the ruins.
‘What should I do?’
Should I pretend I didn’t see it or bury it?
If you bury it like this, you can go back to your daily life as if nothing happened, but these ruins are worth the risk and exploration.
‘I think I’ll be able to get something like a rare item or a new achievement...’
Ma Cheol-hyeon pondered for a while and came to a conclusion.
‘Let’s think about it after telling Yujun.’
Usually, these hidden ruins don’t know what treasures are hidden, and the first achievement may be unlocked in the status window system, so even colleagues do not inform them.
Just as siblings on good terms become enemies of the world due to the distribution of inheritance, a well-to-do party is ruined in an instant due to compensation issues.
However, Ma Chul-hyeon truly believed in Shin Yu-jun, so
‘it would be okay if I let him know.’
He secretly informed his other colleagues that he had discovered the ruins.
-...I shouldn’t have done that.
After a while.
Ma Cheol-hyeon called Yu-jun Shin to the place where he discovered the ruins earlier on the pretext of training.
“that’s interesting. It’s not even a dungeon, but there are ruins.”
“right?”
“Of course, there aren’t any ruins outside the dungeon, but I thought I found quite a few.”
Shin Yu-jun also looked at the underground ruins with a face of surprise.
First of all, the site itself was in the form of a stone cave that seemed to have been cut through a hard rock buried in the ground.
Inside, solid stone pillars and old candlesticks were lighting up, and the walls were densely engraved with writings that could not be interpreted even with [God’s Communication].
Other than that, a few items that look like small pots or relics.
“We have [God’s Communication] turned on right now, right?”
“But since it can’t be interpreted, it must be an ancient language.”
Finally, looking inside the cave, I found a deep, dark staircase that went down to the basement.
Whoop!
those stairs.
The ominous energy Ma Cheol-hyeon felt was emanating from the underground of the cave.
‘There must be something down there.’
It wasn’t a monster.
It felt as if something on a different level was asleep.
“What? Shall we go down? There’s probably a treasure hidden in a place like this. Or should I just shake everything off the top and hand it over to the adventurer’s guild and get out?”
“Let’s just go back.”
“really? I thought you would ask me to come down.”
Ma Cheol-hyeon asked with a surprised face and
said, “Because you don’t want to go.”
“huh?”
“If you wanted to go, I think you wouldn’t have asked me and just said let’s go.”
Shin Yu-jun replied as if it was not a big deal and left the cave.
“That’s right, I really didn’t want to go in.”
Ma Chul-hyeon smiled and said, as if he couldn’t deceive you.
“I felt bad. I don’t think you should approach it.”
He wanted to go in and find the treasure, but he wanted someone to stop him because of the ominous feeling beneath him.
“Still, if you asked me to go, I tried to hold back, but you said you wouldn’t go either. Is there anything special?”
Ma Cheol-hyeon pointed to the grotto with a much refreshed face after his troubles were resolved.
“So, help me deal with that. I’m going to smash the rocks and bury them.”
“...now?”
“If you start now, you’ll have to leak me, right? I have a conscience too, so let’s get up early in the morning and take care of it before everyone wakes up.”
Ma Cheol-hyun said this and left, and Shin Yu-jun looked at the remains of the cave for a while and followed Ma Cheol-hyun.
“It hasn’t come up yet...”
Ma Cheol-hyeon’s urgent voice awakened his colleagues, but
“Don’t worry. You can sleep more.”
“okay? Then you should sleep more...”
“Even if the monster comes out, you guys should catch it.”
Shin Yoo-Jun’s soft voice led his colleagues back to sleep
.
shahah!!!
Soon, merciless scissoring tore through the tent, spraying blood in all directions.
“Shin Yujun!!!!!”
shah!
Ma Cheol-hyeon’s [Red Rake] scratched Shin Yu-jun’s shoulder, but his colleagues who closed their eyes never woke up again.
“Hey what... what’s going on?”
Park □□, woke up from the commotion in the tent next to her, scratched her head and poked her head out.
“Hyung Park, take out your weapon!”
“Are you a monster?”
“Shin Yoo-jun, that bastard is killing everyone!”
“what?”
Park □□, whose face was still not awake, came to her senses at those words.
Although Ma Cheol-hyeon is a fool who likes to play pranks, he has never called Shin Yu-jun that bastard.
“□□ hyung woke up too. I usually sleep late.”
“What the hell are you doing? it’s crazy?”
“You’d better sleep in tonight.”
Park □□, who immediately took out the staff, tried to activate the fire magic, but
“Huh huh?”
The magic didn’t work.
“Would you like to use magic next to your brother’s black magician?”
Park □□ remembered it then.
Until now, he was able to use magic next to Ma Cheol-hyeon because Shin Yu-jun defended against black magic with the silver horse cloth.
“You bitch...”
Get it!
Kagagak!!!
The sharp blade of the scissors slashed Park □□’s neck, and the other blade pierced Ma Cheol-hyeon’s pitchfork.
“You son of a bitch, you son of a bitch!!!”
Ma Cheol-hyeon cried half-crying.
“Rather from scratch! Say you meant to betray!”
It was all because of Shin Yu-Jun that this party was able to survive, but Shin Yu-Jun was also the one who destroyed this party.
“Because that would make it less unfair!”
“That’s too much. You have always been my first priority.”
Caang!
Kang!
The two men’s weapons collided noisily.
“It’s just not a priority right now. Everyone is still valuable colleagues.”
“Where in the world is there a bastard who kills a precious colleague!”
Clearly, we are exchanging conversations using the same language with the same words, but not a single word can communicate.
“If you hadn’t found that ruin, you would have continued to enjoy adventures with your friends, just like you did until now.”
Kagagagak!
Shin Yu-jun blocked Ma Cheol-hyeon’s attack with one scissor blade and quickly cut the floor with the other scissor blade to weave silver horse’s cloth.
Fire!
“Kuk!”
The fabric of the silver horse that was created then wrapped around Ma Cheol-hyeon’s hand.
The black magic power emanating from his body was blocked at once, and Ma Cheol-hyeon’s [Red Rake] turned into blood and was scattered on the floor.
The cloth of the silver horse, which had been supporting him until now, had suddenly turned into an obstacle that thoroughly hindered the fight.
“I just pulled the trigger because someone put a gun in my hand?”
“You don’t have to pull it!”
“If I didn’t have a gun in my hand in the first place... I wouldn’t have had to pull it.”
grasp!
‘Damn it!’
Ma Cheol-hyun stepped back to avoid the attack, but behind him was a cliff with no end in sight.
“Cheolhyun-ah, it’s been fun.”
Shin Yu-jun smiled and hit the scissor sword.
“bye.”
“Shin Yoo-jun is a bastard!!!!!!”
Ma Cheol-hyeon fell down the cliff with a desperate scream.
