CH 26

“Don’t forget to take the other path on the next turn.”

Hearing the explanation of Drink some water, I hurriedly fired my skills at the monsters that were flocking together.

Even if you participated in the discord voice room, there was no need to talk since this dungeon was new to you, and you were only being carried. It will only interfere with the order.

[Party] I’m Dorahee: Yep ㅎㅎ

Doing the same thing as me, Dorahee answered through the chat, instead of using a microphone, except when she said hello earlier.

Even Yoo Chae didn’t say anything, so the only voices he could hear were Drink some water, Haerun, Park Seung-jin, and cray hunting friend.

“Huh? But I’m sleepy-nim, isn’t that the same staff you used to use?”

Park Seung-jin, who was carefully examining my skill damage, asked in a curious voice.

“It looks like it has become very sloppy...………”

“Enng? That’s right.”

At Park Seung-jin’s words, his brotherhood clashed with me. The two of them did not know that the staff had been taken away, so it was understandable that they reacted like this.

‘I think most of the guild members know that Yoo Chae gave me a Solis staff with a stat of Lux.’

Does this mean I was the only one who got the staff that all the guild members knew? Anyway, let’s just finish this raid.

[Party] I’m sleepy: I don’t like the guy who gave me the staff as a present

[Party] I’m sleepy: So, I used something else

[Party] Yoo Chae: ㅜㅡㅜ?? ㅜㅡㅜ??

I was too tired to think of plausible excuses, so when I gave a rough answer, Yoo Chae intervened like crazy.

[Party] Yoo Chae: Hyung, if you don’t like,

[Party] Yoo Chae: Do you want me to buy you a new one?

[Party] I’m Dorahee: It’s not like Sleepy-nim has only one staff and

[Party] I’m Dorahee: You don’t like Gilma-nim, do you? ㅎㅎ

[Party] Yoo Chae: ?

“Puhak!”

After Dorahee’s chat, everyone burst into laughter. I also covered my mouth with my hand and swallowed the laughter that flowed out.

[Party] Park Seung-jin 99: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[Party] Park Seung-jin 99: Perhaps, Gilma-nim is crying? ㅠ

[Party] Park Seung-jin 99: Just go a little bit gently with himㅋㅋ~

[Party] Haerun: Right now I’m laughing like a dog on my microphone fuck hahahahahahahaha

[Party] Yoo Chae: Why

[Party] Yoo Chae: Are you going to say something again.. ㄷㄷ

[Party] I’m Dorahee: From what I saw

[Party] I’m Dorahee: At least, that’s what I thought.

[Party] I’m Dorahee: Sleepy ㅎㅎㅎ

[Party] I’m sleepy: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[Party] Yoo Chae: Hyung...

[Party] Yoo Chae: That person said something strange to me ;_;

When I didn’t take his side, Yoo Chae whined like a sick puppy.

Who told you to lie to me? You did it all on your all.

“Let’s stop playing around and focus. The middle boss should appear by now.”

As soon as Drink some water was finished with her words, the ground shook violently with a thud. It was the appearance of the middle boss, Master Lycan.

「A new prey has arrived.」

The low and heavy voice of the Master Lycan echoed along with the growls of the grumbling beast.

The werewolf-shaped Master Lycan had little stamina but had an extremely high defense and had a charge, making it one of the most difficult monsters to deal with for a long-distance dealer in many ways.

“Let’s go right in.”

As Drink some water stood in front of the Master Lycan, a twinkling light streamed from above. It was a pure white shield, a weapon of the Holy Knight, which is known as a particularly difficult job among tanks.

“Sleepy-nim, it’s more important to be strong and a tank, so you should stay with the buffer.”

As explained by her, I moved to the side of Dorahee, the buffer, and Haerun, the healer, and started to cast a magic skill.

「I’ll eat every one of you, without leaving a single one!」

It was the line that signaled the start of the first phase of the middle boss. Master Lycan’s body swelled greatly and stood on all fours like a real wolf. He struck a pose that’s taken just before the charge is used.

“Don’t stand in a straight line.”

Drink some water pointed out exactly the important part.

The first phase of Master Lycan is mostly filled with charges, unlike the bosses of the Keyrent dungeon, where tanks or mage dealers can attract aggro with attacks.

However, since the charge runs in the direction where the designated opponent is, standing behind the person who is near the monster can increase the damage. So, I had to pay as much attention as possible so that the long-distance dealer and the character acting as a buffer were not in a straight line.

When Yoo Chae, a mid-range dealer, took out a weapon and swung it once, the golden chain shone brilliantly with the sound of the metal chain clashing.

「Kaaaak!」

Master Lycan, who had been hit by the chain, screamed. Yoo Chae, who took the first aggro, continued to attack while he avoided Master Lycan, who was rushing towards him at high speed, with an evasion skill.

‘His deals are no joke.’

Compared to my skill damage, which is barely 5 thousand, the number of damage that Yoo Chae does every time he swings his chain is 20,000 by default. When the critical hits, it goes over 30,000.

Even though Master Lycan’s defense is quite high, his deals are still over 20,000 damage... He is truly a great guy in many ways.

“Now, I’ll continue to fight too.”

A guild member stepped in between Master Lycan and Yoo Chae at the right time. As an infighter job, the golden guntle stuck in both hands of the character stood out.

If one person drags aggro for more than 3 turns, the charge speed only increases for that opponent, so it was better to take turns doing it like a baton touch.

That guild member, who took the aggro next to Yoo Chae, smashed the Master Lycan at high speed while wearing the gauntlet, and then widened the distance by back tumbling at the timing of the rush. One of the characteristics of the Infighter was that his attack was heavy compared to his light and agile movements.

‘Um? It would be dangerous to go that way.’

I kept changing positions and attacking according to the aggro of the guild members, but I noticed that Dora-hee was moving in a dangerous direction.

“Rahee, don’t go there, come to me.”

It was too urgent to have a chat, so I had no choice but to use the microphone. It’s a bit strange to say ‘Dorahee’ with a real voice, so I called her ‘Rahee’ like Drink some water.

[Party] I’m Dorahee: Oh Okay

After hearing that, Dorahee turned around and ran towards me. At the same time, Master Lycan roared and rushed into the spot where Dorahee had just been. Also.

[Party] This is Dorahee: ㄳThank u ㅎㅎ

[Party] Haerun: Sleepy-nim, good gut ㅅㅅ

After all, the precious buffer almost died. Still, I can live comfortably because Dorahee was not stubborn or slow in her hands. Drink some water, it’s worth saying that you brought a nice newcomer.

Thinking that I was lucky, I felt glad to be able to avoid Master Lycan’s dash with Dora-hee, who was only following me, but Yoo Chae, who had been quiet the whole time, called me.

“Hyu-Hyung.”

“En?”

Reflexively, I felt a little embarrassed as I blinked my eyes. Why are you calling me with such a pathetic voice?

“Why–”

“it’s nothing……………”

Like a plant that withers away, he answered with a wilting energy. What did you suddenly call me?

‘I really don’t know him even though I know him.’

He evaded Master Lycan who was running towards him, kicking his tongue inwardly. It’s nothing after all, and I can’t ask for more. I have to turn my attention away from him and do what I have to do.

(Drink some water’s POV)

[Whisper] Haerun: This is how the situation turned out right now

[Whisper] Haerun: Am I the only one scared?

[Whisper] Haerun: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Hearing Haerun’s whisper, he put the microphone aside and sighed quietly.

The raid dungeon, which brought in the newcomers, I’m Sleepy and I’m DoraHee, got off to a smooth start, contrary to concerns of Drink some water.

But, not surprisingly, things took a strange turn when I’m Sleepy started taking care of Dorahee.

[Party] I’m Dorahee: I’m sleepy-nim

[Party] I’m Dorahee: You are doing really good at the game

[Party] I’m Dorahee: bb

[Party] I’m sleepy: ㅋㅋㅋ

[Party] I’m sleepy: ㄳ ㄳ

I’m sleepy and I’m Dorahee continued to have small conversations, but I think the awkwardness between them has disappeared because of the experience when they helped each other earlier.

And each time, Yoo Chae frantically swung his chain and slashed Master Lycan.

[Whisper] Drink some water: Me too...

[Whisper] Drink some water: I’m worried.. ㅎ

[Whisper] Haerun: For reals

[Whisper] Haerun: I’m sleepy-nim, is doing great but he’s–

[Whisper] Haerun: A little bit weak to women.. you know

[Whisper] Haerun: Like what happened with Cotton Candy Fox

[Whisper] Haerun: If not, then what?;;

[Whisper] Drink some water: Ah it doesn’t really matter

If that happened, it would be difficult to see it that way, and Yoo Chae would also become a part of the problem.

Even now, it makes Yoo Chae so pissed that the two of them are just chatting while he’s beating monsters. How much worse will it be in the future? Just thinking about it was exhausting.

「You stupid bastards! The fight starts now! 」

The devastated Master Lycan spit out lines that signaled the start of the second phase and summoned dozens of wolves. But before the others could come forward, they were all swept away by Yoo Chae’s chain attack.

‘That crazy bastard, did you boost your skills before this?’

He must have drunk a potion to increase attack power and increase attack speed since his power was stronger than before. What are you using that precious buff potion for when you’re just dealing with Shelton Normal’s mid boss?

‘I didn’t know that you would hate seeing him getting along with other users that much……’

Park Seung-jin, who was not able to attack properly due to Yoo Chae’s strong ambition, and Crazy hunting friend, who apparently noticed something, sent a whisper to Drink some water.

[Whisper] Park Seung-jin 99: What??

[Whisper] Park Seung-jin 99: Gilma, why are you like this?

[Whisper] Crazy hunting friend: Is this Gilma’s drug party?

After all, I always do this sort of follow-up. I tapped the keyboard with the expression of a Tibetan fox on my account ‘Drink some water.’

[Whisper] Drink some water: Noㄴㄴ, he’s just being a dog like always

[Whisper] Drink some water: Anyway, it’s not like what you think, but I’d rather not get involved

[Whisper] Park Seung-jin 99: ㅋㅋ

[Whisper] Park Seung-jin 99: It’s better to stay away

[Whisper] Crazy hunting friend: Oh ok

The Guild members quickly understood the cut-out explanation of “Drink some water” and took a step back. It didn’t matter because he was on the normal route and was fighting a mid-boss anyway.

After Yoo Chae, who was running wild like an angry dog, killed Master Lycan, I’m sleepy admired Yoo Chae, who had helped him by blowing magic from time to time.

[Party] I’m sleepy: Wow

[Party] I’m sleepy: you’re really strong

[Party] Yoo Chae: Really?

[Party] Yoo Chae: ㅎㅎㅎㅎ

‘Oh my...………’

After seeing the chat, Yoo Chae, who had been showing signs of sulking, must have felt relieved while Drink some water shook her head in the sideline.

‘It’s severe.’

I don’t care what the two of you do, so please don’t involve me. Drink some water could only beg and beg that nothing harmful would happen to her.
