Chapter 45

Episode 45. Fourth Shelter (1)

“Because it’s a stage I cherish, so I can’t let it break like this.”

Black Demon King Chimeries clicked his fingers.

damn

The gray mana devoured the tail section.

***

When the sun came to his senses, he was already in another space.

“Huh.”

Taeyang instinctively tensed his body and looked around.

Ran Benjamin Paca.

Even the commander of the guards with a pale complexion spread out in one corner.

I could see the people in the tail compartment.

And the sun found Kimerys, a black man with a huge physique.

Ran murmured with a confused expression.

“what? Where are you?”

It wasn’t just Ran who was confused.

Neither the sun nor the parka. No one in the tail compartment had any idea what was going on.

damn

Cimmeries snapped his fingers.

Everyone in the group focused their attention on him.

Only then did they realize that this man had done this.

“nice to see you. I am Demon King Chimeries in charge of this stage.”

Benjamin pointed his finger at Cimmeries with an expression as if he was about to pass out.

“Kee Cimmeries!”

“Benjamin, it’s been a while since you’ve been here. I saw it before the wrinkles were etched into its skin.”

The captain of the bodyguard, with a pale complexion, leaned against the wall and aimed his gun at Cimmeries.

“Who are you?”

Cimmeries had no intention of answering the guard’s questions.

He ignored the question and apologized to Ran Paka, the sun.

“I am sorry. Because of personal circumstances, I have interfered with your ordeal.”

Kreureung.

Parker growled, barely pulling himself together.

“It needs an explanation. There’s something I’ve been doing so far, but I don’t think I have to clear another stage, right?”

“Ten thousand words. This is the engine room. I went in at my own discretion, but everyone cleared the stage on the 12th floor this time.”

“what!”

The captain of the guards screamed in surprise.

Some of the SS members who were still alive were also confused.

Cimmeries continued ignoring them.

“Player Yoon Tae-yang and Ran Parka. Of course, you will be paid an achievement based on your play so far, and you will receive two more achievements. Clear is right around the corner, so it’s not really a loss. Any objection?”

The sun glanced up at Benjamin Arcraptor.

2 achievements.

I don’t know, but if I had killed Benjamin, I would have earned at least one achievement.

But on the other hand, I didn’t know what would happen.

It was definitely not an overdue situation, and Benjamin was a wizard with enough skills to create variables.

The only thing that was a bit disappointing was that it was an opportunity to remove the injured parka, but if this happens, you will miss it.

Well, that’s about it, so you can look at the opportunity again later.

If they were on the same floor, there was little chance that they would have the required level of cards or artifacts for Taeyang.

Ran asked cautiously.

“Why do you suddenly clear the stage while giving 2 achievements?”

“Because if left as it is, the ‘Endless Express’ stage would collapse.”

The chat window went down along with Cimmeries’ words.

-The stage collapsed?

– It’s the first time I’ve seen the demon king openly intervening on stage like this.

-Pause? It’s a dog scam. lol.

-In fact, the operator’s operator.

-Those bastards might not be NPCs.

-Isn’t that the gm?

-Anyway, is it because of Benjamin that the stage collapsed?

-Isn’t it just because all the high-ranking people died in the Untara raid?

Cimmeries turned his head to look at Benjamin.

Actually, I don’t know.

Even if Benjamin died here, the remaining humans on the train might somehow come up with a solution on their own.

Maybe a better stage could be made.

However, that stage would not suit Kimeries’ taste as it is now.

In order to preserve this well-made environment, Cimmeries exceptionally spared a single human.

“You can get out of here. The situation can be roughly assumed that the engineer saved you.”

Benjamin licked his lips.

“To keep living in a world without a future? Disgusting.”

“A world without a future? well. Do you think so?”

Even Cimmeries was surprised at the scene where he caught the white dragon.

Benjamin’s eyes sunk.

He still had a lot of work to do.

Ran whistled.

“you?”

“A.”

“We went together, but there is a difference.”

“I can’t help it.”

Ran had no doubts or dissatisfaction with the results.

Withstood the breath of the white dragon Untara from the front. and beheaded.

Taeyang and Ran went through it together, but Taeyang was always at the center of the work.

Taeyang could do what Ran was supposed to do, but Ran couldn’t do what Taeyang could.

“Shall we go?”

“let’s go. eww. I want to wash up and rest.”

Parka has arrived.

For no other reason, they too had come to the door to the shelter.

Hyeon-hye suddenly intervened.

– Wouldn’t it be bad if we accompany you on the next stage as well?

Beast tribe parka.

It was definitely an NPC with decent combat power.

I don’t know what to think, but I have nothing to lose by inviting them to move together.

“hey.”

At the call of the sun, Parka turned and looked at the sun.

“How about working together on the next stage? My hands and feet matched pretty well this time too.”

Parker snorted.

“If you encounter a human in the next stage, you will die. Be lucky.”

“Oh okay. good going.”

– Right away, right?

– It’s like a knife.

-It is a racial characteristic. no manners

From the default, they are always hostile to humans.

There was nothing strange about it.

... ... Cutting like a knife like that makes me a little annoyed.

“Then go first.”

Parka disappeared out the door.

Taeyang and Ran also disappeared.

Cimmeries laughed at the scene.

Taeyang, who discovers a new look of the stage for the demon lord who designs the stage, is quite willing.

smart.

Then someone knocked on the engine room door.

Cimmeries looked at the door.

Are there other players?

I thought it was almost dead.

When there was no answer, the main character of the knock opened the door and came in.

A man wearing a loose red uniform with dark circles extending to the bottom of his eyes.

It was the Salomon Arcraptor.

As soon as Salomon met Cimmeries, he got to the point.

“I came to know.”

“What do you mean?”

“The reality of our world.”

It is a game board created by a being called the Demon King.

“Can I go too?”

Cimmeries pondered for a moment.

Salomon Arcraptor.

The second-in-command of the Engineer camp, a potential adversary of Benjamin Arcraptor, and his heir.

When he gets out, there are too many strong left on the train.

‘It’s difficult.’

However, not rejecting the challenger was also the principle of the ‘Dimensional Labyrinth’.

Cimmeries immediately smiled.

“of course. ‘Dimension Labyrinth’ does not reject challengers. But there are conditions.”

***

Hyeon-hye clenched her fists as she watched the sun enter the shelter’s inn.

From the record, Endless Express was a stage where players would die even if they concentrated on clearing it.

In fact, most of the people who were suspected of being ‘rats’ and died at the beginning of the stage were players.

Hyeon-hye suggested giving up achievements and concentrating on clearing at least Endless Express.

But what about the results?

-perhaps. really.

The potential of Taeyang, which was shown in the beginning, turned the doubt about ‘can it be cleared?’ into hope.

And at this moment, hope became certain.

At least to Hyun-hye.

– Sun.

“huh?”

– this game. Let’s clear it. By all means.

The sun smiled.

“I’m talking about the obvious.”
