Chapter 79

# 79

79. After moving (1),

what greeted us was the entrance of the same mansion as the 16th floor.

The stairs leading downstairs at the back branched off into five separate paths in the front. Belquist grinned.

“I think it’s one drink higher than the 16th floor.”

I instructed Nerissa to join the party.

As long as the structure of the labyrinth is complicated, there is a chance that you will be caught in a trap and leave the party.

“Don’t scatter and move. Report immediately if anything happens.”

The four nodded.

Tension appears on his face. The fear of getting lost on the road seemed to precede the fear of battle. I pinched Jenna’s hardened cheek.

“Don’t be too scared. As long as you follow a few principles, it’s no big deal.”

“Really? You’re not going to die of starvation in a place like this, are you?”

“You’re worrying about nothing.”

Even if it was a labyrinth, it was only on the 17th floor.

There was little possibility of using the tool, just preparing for one situation.

‘The problem is that the difficulty of this account is not normal.’

but somehow it will work

I went through the labyrinth holding paper and pen instead of sword and shield. It was to record the map of the labyrinth. The same pattern is likely to repeat throughout this interval. On the way, I encountered traps with arrows and soldiers waiting, but in the end I cleared the 17th floor safely.

The subsequent attack on the labyrinth proceeded smoothly.

The higher the floor, the more complicated the structure became, and although the number of enemies and the frequency of trap activation increased, there was no particular crisis. At most, I stayed for one night on the 18th floor. By the time they cleared the 18th floor, the anxiety had disappeared from their faces.

The day after returning from the labyrinth, Amkena gave me a day off, but of course I never took a rest quietly.

I didn’t really ask for anything, but the members of the 1st party added intensity to the training intensity on their own. Belquist and Nerissa, newcomers to the party, did the same.

‘The 20th floor is approaching.’

He knew very well what this meant.

The second party also started operation by filling a vacant spot.

As a 2 star former hunter, he will take on the role of a ranged attacker for the 2nd party. I heard that the first floor was dedicated to hunting before coming up to the second floor.

And when we returned to the plaza on the first floor after clearing the 19th floor.

Amkena built a new facility.

[Build the facility. Touch the type of facility you want.]

[You have selected ‘Storage Lv.1’. Would you like to expand the building?]

[Yes (optional) / No]

Kururu.

With the selection confirmed, a weak vibration shook the first floor.

We started tidying up in silence, not paying attention to the vibration. It was to organize the tools that were used and return them to the warehouse. Light was being engraved on the wall of the square on the second floor above.

“It was easier than I thought. Why are you so scared. You said you could starve to death!”

Jenna said as she set down the empty bag in the storage room.

I put my hand on the bag. Nerissa removed the bag from my shoulder.

“There were a couple of really dangerous sections. Like the same route repeated over and over again. Who’s got it so easy...” Nerissa

looked at me with eyes half mixed with doubt and admiration.

I was curious about my true identity.

“By the way, what kind of facility is Master building? It’s been noisy since before.”

When the tidying up was almost finished, Iolka opened her mouth.

“It’s a storage room. It’s a place where you leave various things.”

“Archive? It seems to overlap with the warehouse.”

“It has a slightly different meaning.”

I left the warehouse

The vibration stopped, and soon the message of construction completion came to mind.

[The archive is complete! You can look back on the heroes who left in the arms of the goddess.]

[Tips/You can check the illustrations and data of deceased heroes in the album of memories. However, this is possible only when the hero’s belongings are enshrined in the archive.]

A marble door had appeared on the wall of the plaza on the second floor.

It was the entrance to the archives. I said, looking back at Iolka who was following me.

“It’s our grave.”

“A grave?”

“From now on, practice the longbow. Request a usable weapon from the production staff. Until you learn the skill of the longbow, put aside everything else and stick to it.”

If there are dragons on the 20th floor, there is a high probability that they will have hard scales.

A longbow capable of penetrating it and a skill to assist him were essential. Jenna replied that she knew.

“Iolka. Increase the power of your fire magic. If possible, up to level 4.”

“Step 4? It’s not easy...”

“I’m not forcing you. Try as much as you can.”

“all right.”

On the 20th floor, high-powered magic would be needed, not for dealing with mischief.

Compared to when Iolka first came, the amount of mana and the power of magic had noticeably increased. I also remembered telling myself that after a while I would be able to break through the 4th level wall. After seeing Iolka nod, I continued.

“You two are next. Do you have any other instructions?”

“I’ll take care of that part.”

Belquist shook his head.

“I have a question about some skills. I hope you can tell me.”

“Don’t worry about that.”

Belquist was also able to see the skill window thanks to the research effect.

He seemed to be looking for the right use of his ferocity, insight, and other skills lately. Like Zena and Iolka, you can nurture them however you want, but they don’t match Belkist’s tendencies. I decided to trust.

“I’m thinking of going to the dungeon every day of the week.”

Lastly, it was Nerissa.

“This time, I’ll prepare extreme poison instead of paralysis poison. It might take some time because the ingredients are ingredients.”

“Is it okay if I don’t do personal training?”

“I think it’s better to prepare poison than my training.”

Nerissa gave me a meaningful look.

is it. Nerissa has a sense of the 20th floor even without me telling her. A five-story golden mansion. You would have noticed long ago what would come out of that last layer.

‘It’s poison.’

Due to the low number of floors, there are not many types of daily dungeons.

But it won’t be useless. I accepted this too.

“There is no fixed schedule from today. Be free to act. But don’t be lazy. If you don’t want to die.”

“I wouldn’t have come in if it was that low-key party.”

Belquist picked up the scabbard next to the chair and stood up.

“I’ll start right away. Fight me. With a real sword.”

“You mean from morning?”

“Isn’t there no morning and night to fight?”

‘It’s a fun provocation.’

I grinned and grabbed the sheath.

This guy is pretty funny. No matter how many times you lose to me, you won’t get discouraged. The mindset itself was different from that of Aaron and Dika Usher.

“Can I just ask you to make me a longbow?”

“Yes. Order the thick arrows as well.”

If I ignore Amkena’s gaze, I can make it myself, but the equipment workshop’s skills are surprisingly not bad. It’s okay to leave it for once. I didn’t catch Jenna.

As I was going to the arena with Belquist, Iolka shouted.

“I’ll join you in sparring too!”

Iolka pursed her lips.

“It’s real training, but why do I always leave it out? I can fight too.”

“You say you don’t want to?”

“I’ve changed my mind. I don’t want to go into that strange vault!”

I pondered for a moment.

In the meantime, Iolka hadn’t participated in the sparring. It was because she actively refused to participate and was dangerous in itself. Fire magic doesn’t discriminate between friends and foes. Now that the level and skill level have risen, the firepower is too strong , so if you

get hit directly with magic, you could

turn

it into ashes.

‘Well, I was going to put it in someday.’

As a result, Iolka was also included in the Dalian.

“I want to fight with you,”

I let Belquist’s complaint go in one ear.
