I Became A Part Time Employee For Gods Chapter 109
#109. Pyramid Delivery (2)
The entrance to the huge pyramid was located in the north, south, east and west.
“Isn’t the line huge?”
Damdeok frowned at the brightly shining sun and looked at the line at the entrance.
There was an endless procession of gods trying to get inside.
“What period of time do we end up in like this...?”
In response to Baekgureum’s words, Damdeok tapped him on the shoulder without saying a word.
“I only trust you, brother.”
Damdeok walked ahead with long strides. The long line was blatantly ignored.
“hmm?”
“Cutting in line?”
The gods who were standing in line were glaring at Damdeok and Baekgooreum, but then they saw the words ‘Pyramid Delivery’ written on the blue vests and began to slowly make way for them.
“I’m a god who works as a courier.”
“You’re having a hard time in this heat.”
“Get out of the way. “Get out of the way.”
It was a story I had already heard from Poppy. It is said that courier workers can enter anywhere inside the pyramid without being asked.
“Pass!”
As soon as the rugged-looking entrance guard saw Damdeok and Baekgureum’s blue vests, he clearly shouted for them to pass.
“Did you see it? I heard the blue vest is a free pass here~”
Damdeok looked somewhat excited and tapped Baekgureum’s side once before taking the lead.
“Ah... yes... that would be nice, bro...”
Baekgureum was still babbling about how Gao wouldn’t live because of the blue vest, but Damdeok wasn’t even listening. The sound of
footsteps
echoes.
Narrow hallway.
It was a dark hallway, with only a handful of sunlight coming through the small cracks in the walls.
Just when I felt like the claustrophobia-inducing stuffiness would continue for quite a long time, I saw an entrance of light in the distance, and soon an open panoramic view of the interior unfolded before my eyes.
“Wow... they’re killing me?”
An exclamation of exclamation came out of Damdeok’s mouth without me knowing.
The same was true for White Cloud, who continued to be sullen.
“wow...!”
The inside of the pyramid was much more spacious and comfortable than expected, and above all... it was very gorgeous!
“Now take your pick! pick! “Just for today!”
“Oasis Fruit Cactus Juice is on special sale!”
“A mysterious elixir highly praised by Horus!”
Brilliant merchants lined up on both sides.
Each person seemed to be busy buying and selling unique items and equipment.
That wasn’t all.
“Go and taste the grilled sand monster~”
“Roasted sturdy camel, freshly caught this time~”
There were also unique foods that made your mouth water,
“I’m talking about~ The power I gained this time through my part-time job~”
“I’m selling a part-time job strategy guide for Greek mythology~”
“The Fairy King’s Medicinal herbs~ There are different classes~!”
There were a lot of storytellers and strategy books using their own experiences and mysterious potions.
‘It’s a completely different world than when you see it from the outside.’
It was no wonder that Damdeok and Baekgureum’s eyes rolled back.
“You can go anywhere in downtown Seoul... hey hey!”
Damdeok grabbed Baekgureum by the neck as he rushed into the restaurant, drooling.
“This bastard. “I can’t stand that bird...”
“Ah, bro! This is what we do for a living anyway, so just take a bite of that...”
“No. Don’t do anything useless. “Our goal today is to be as inconspicuous as possible.”
Damdeok, who resolutely suppressed Baekgureum, walked quickly.
“Let’s see.” If it’s like Poppy told me, it’s like this....”
From the east entrance, go straight ahead, turn right at store No. 16, go straight again, turn left at store No. 235, and turn around toward the bathroom.... It
looks complicated in words, but in reality, it’s a long road. It wasn’t that difficult.
The first floor of the pyramid was divided into sections like a well-organized new city.
“found!”
“Ugh... I want to eat that...”
We arrived at our destination, forcefully dragging Baekgureum, who was still unable to come to his senses.
A sign that says ‘Area A’.
A spiral staircase continues endlessly above it.
Guards with murderous eyes were standing on both sides of the entrance to the stairs.
‘It looks just like the stone statues from Egyptian murals.’
One had the head of a bird, the other the head of a dog, and each was holding a large spear tightly in its right hand.
Judging by the divine power flowing out, it looks like there will be quite a fight.
Intermediate god level?
As they approached them,
the dog-headed guard spoke in a loud voice.
“Is it a delivery service? “It’s late.”
The bird-headed guard also gruffly helped.
“Out of all the delivery guys today, you were the latest. “You don’t know what kind of customers are here in Area A, do you?”
Damdeok shrugged his shoulders at the guards’ threatening attitude.
‘How should I know what kind of customers are in Area A?’
I do not know.
‘I don’t even want to know.’
All he had to do was find the fourth guardian.
The dog-headed guard’s face was subtly distorted.
“Anyway... I made a stupid face. it’s okay. “Hurry in and carry your luggage.”
He doesn’t speak rudely, but he obediently lets him in.
‘As expected, the blue vest of the free pass.’
is a mess.
I thought about giving that rude Jodong-ari a slap, but I barely held back.
– Crumbling! Kyao! Kyaoooo!
The lion-shaped monster mercilessly attempted to bite Damdeok’s thigh while wearing a muzzle.
White Cloud swallowed his saliva and asked.
“...Isn’t there a cage or something?”
“Yes, none.”
There was nothing like that in the first place because it was moved by tying it to a stake on the lawn inside the cube.
The chain must be handed over to its owner...
Damdeok calmed his voice once again.
Knock-
“Oh, sir. You have to receive this delivery yourself. “If you could just open the door for a moment...”
Jump up!
“Oh really! I told you to just leave it alone! please!”
“Sign....”
“Here! That’s it!”
bang!
Paper flutters in the empty hallway.
Damdeok smiled awkwardly and picked up the paper.
From then on, the situation remained the same.
Knock –
“The delivery has arrived~”
“Oh, just a moment~”
I clearly said it would be a moment, but even after waiting for 10 minutes, it didn’t come out.
How long is just a moment?
Thirty minutes? one hour?
So, when I knock on the door again, he gets angry and asks why I’m urging him on like this.
Still, I persevered and headed to the next floor.
Knock-
“The delivery has arrived~”
“What are you doing now?” “Please leave it at the door.”
So, if you leave it in front of the door, a few hours later
[Poppy: Brother, I heard there was a complaint from customer number 135 on the 97th floor. It’s an expensive item, so what if I just leave it in front of the door?...]
I’m angry.
They said just leave it and leave it?
“Damn Egyptian gods...”
I was slowly starting to reach my breaking point.
Where the hell is the fourth guardian?
I tried to go around each floor and look for suspicious places, but it was not easy to find because the inside of the pyramid was so large and the further up it went, the only space was the gods’ personal space.
“I have to find a quick way to get out of here...”
At first, the inside of the pyramid was fascinating and fun, but as time went by, my desire to escape became more and more intense.
“haha. Damn stairs!”
“Why is there no elevator?”
Damdeok and Baekgureum’s heavy breathing echoed down the stairs.
No, if you’re going to follow Korea’s delivery system, shouldn’t you have also taken into account that elevators are essential in high-rise buildings?
This saved us the trouble of carrying our luggage up the stairs, but the hellish height of the pyramid was definitely not easy.
If the wind hadn’t come in through the windows lining the spiral staircase, I would have probably lied down a long time ago.
“after. it’s okay. “This floor is the final delivery location for the first cube.”
“Oh, it’s really tight... Bro, what floor is this on?”
“333rd floor. “We are now halfway done.”
The sound of the wind beyond the window was at an unusually high level.
‘It’s a big deal. I climbed this far but couldn’t find the suspicious room.’
According to what Jooyul said, the only way to find the fourth guardian was to search the pyramid like teeth.
His secret room changes every day like a maze, and the gods inside the pyramid barely know him, so they literally have no choice but to search for him through hard work...
‘But this is too much. So, what time of year do you look for it?’
It was a search for a needle in the desert.
As Damdeok was deep in thought, Baekgureum looked around the hallway and grumbled.
“No, you can’t find it if you look for a suspicious room. The rooms all look the same? A large stone door with two torches on either side and a stone statue with its own face instead of a doorplate... they are all the same! tighten!”
It was like that.
Egyptian gods had very little personality.
I don’t know what it was like inside where they lived, but at least the outside entrances were all the same, as if they were taken from a photo.
“In other words, if it’s not set up like that, it’s a suspicious room.”
Damdeok said that and began to carefully walk around the 333rd floor.
It was then.
“Ah, I was really scared! “You actually saw the Sphinx halfway through the open gap?!”
“Kkkkk, why did you say you wanted to see her again? “If you ask the Sphinx, he will tell you where she is right away~?”
“okay. “The Sphinx knows everything about the Pyramids.”
“I was trying to help us get in because you were scared~ Too bad.”
High-ranking gods with animal heads passed by Damdeok and chatted among themselves.
“it’s crazy? “If you get a question wrong, you’ll get eaten!”
“You just have to answer the question correctly, right?”
“ha ha ha! “He is like that too!”
“You acted like you would do anything earlier~ The cactus god is a coward~”
“You bastards! “If you’re so confident, why don’t you guys go in first?!”
As soon as the voice went away, Damdeok and Baekgureum’s steps stopped.
sphinx?
Are you telling me everything about the pyramids?
As if I was possessed, I walked towards the hallway they came from and said,
“Wow... that door looks really suspicious, bro.”
In the far corner, a gloomy place without sunlight, I saw a huge door without any of the usual stone statues or torches.
‘There are no other doors around here.’
Instead, there are murals scattered throughout the hallway.
At its center
is a monster with a human head and a lion-like tail and a snake-shaped body.
“sphinx.”
Damdeok was already getting close to the huge door.
