Episode 516 Mianâs Decision (3)
Upon entering the dungeon completely, the three mystics took off the cloth covering their faces.
Hongyoung said in bewilderment.
âItâs my first time appearing in the sun⦠Getting cheers from people isnât too bad.â
âhmm. They are good-hearted people.â
As they were soaked in warm sentiment, Soyoung slightly frowned.
âYou guys didnât come here to play, did you? I hope you donât forget about work.â
As soon as Soyoung entered the dungeon, she looked everywhere.
From the soil quality of the ground and the stone quality of the walls to the width of the road and the presence or absence of monsters.
As much as she came to the dungeon as an intelligence officer with Hongyoung, she moved more diligently than the others.
Embarrassed by that, Zeke said while pulling the cart.
âAnyway, I was just about to move forward. By the way, itâs surprising that the wind blows in a dungeon where the front and back are completely blocked.â
Hongyoung also smelled the weak scent of blood and stroked the magic crystal in his sleeve.
âIf youâre not paying attention, you could be in trouble. This is a dungeon that even the Holy Son could not overcome.â
âokay. So, donât talk like youâre on a picnic. It is a place where even that monstrous saint could not find an answer. Who knows if you lose your mind for a while and then your throat gets cut off?â
Soyoung pretended to cut her throat.
Somehow, itâs more scary to talk calmly.
The three of them stopped chatting and faced forward while hiding their presence.
I didnât know if he would call in monsters if he kept talking.
But I couldnât do anything about the friction noise I heard when pulling the cart.
Qi-qii-
every time the rusty wheels made a sound, it seemed as if some mysterious energy was looking at them.
Hongyoung, who was focusing on detecting presence, shook his head.
It probably means that there are no monsters around.
But then, what is this sticky life-like aura about?
Hongyoung stopped Zeke, who was pulling the cart in a bad mood.
âItâs an enemy.â
At the same time as he spoke, arrows flew overhead.
PABABABAK-!
Dozens of arrows flew at once, as if they were aiming for only one, and it was truly reminiscent of a battlefield.
Zeke hurriedly grabbed his sword.
Put your hand in your sleeve and wrap the magic stone.
Whoa-!
Mana began to circulate rapidly through Zekeâs whole body.
He swung his sword a few times.
Kakakakang-!
Zekeâs sword strikes several times, and the arrow loses its pulse and lands on the ground.
Will the cart be damaged by any chance?
After hitting all the arrows with his own hands, he looked at the beast with increased eyesight.
Then, they saw the killers looking at them from afar, looking surprised.
If it hadnât been for Mana, he would have been stuck.
If ordinary adventurers or mercenaries wandering around the village had entered, they would not have escaped death.
The three faces frightened as they thought that they had fired arrows with the intention of killing them from the beginning.
âThese bastardsâ¦â
Zeke, furious, turned forward.
Hongyeong gave him a warning.
âI have to save Sikmana.â
Nodding â
He answered by moving his head slightly, and kicked the ground lightly.
Like a shot arrow, Zekeâs model bounced off.
âomg!â
âShoot!â
âThe avant-gardes fight in front! The opponents are guys without mana!â
At someoneâs order, the giants raised their swords and confronted Zeke.
âdie!â
âHuh!â
I stopped breathing for a moment to stop the shaking of the tip of the sword.
Zeke realized that they were by no means at the level of a bandit.
If you see them aiming for vital points and rushing at them, they are professionally trained in combat skills.
At least it was correct to see them as the remnants of adventurers or mercenaries.
Zeke passed their swords gently over his shoulder.
At the same time, he moves his sword and cuts the menâs sides.
Slow-!
With a ghastly sound, the menâs huge bodies were broken into pieces in an instant.
As the vanguard they trusted died after only a few seconds, those who were hastily hanging their arrows on the strings drooped their shoulders.
Zeke, who approached them with slow steps, opened his mouth.
âWhy are you killing people in the dungeon?â
The power gap between the two powers is stark.
Having lost their will to fight, they answered.
âWhen it becomes difficult to live, the people also become bandits.â
âbandit?â
âAfter countless mercenaries entered the dungeon, something similar to a village was created here as well. But itâs not where murderers like us go. So why not plunder?â
that the village was built
Are you saying that dungeons are much more advanced than they thought?
Soyoung, who was guarding the cart, approached.
âBecause youâre going to die soon anyway, tell me everything you know without any regrets. How do I go down?â
âYou are a girl with a lot of talk. find out for yourself The lower you go, the more miserable you get.â
Have you already been prepared to lose your life?
Even when they said that they would die soon, there was no reaction.
Rather, it seems as if he is lowering his bow and accepting his imminent death.
Soyoung looked at Zeke.
âIf left alive, they will commit murder again. Arenât you comfortable killing yourself?â
There is no such thing as a net killer when it comes to talking about a childish appearance.
Hana Zeke also agreed with Soyoungâs opinion, so there was no disagreement.
âThere is something I want to ask you.â
âDonât ask, kill me. We are already exhausted.â
There was no more life in their eyes.
It was the eyes of an old man waiting for the day he would die.
As Zeke and Soyoung looked at each other blankly, the mercenaries quietly put down their bows and swords.
âThe life of a dungeon is to live to the fullest and then accept death if that doesnât work.â
âEven though killing was my main job, I lived to the best of my ability, so there is no regret.â
They seemed satisfied with themselves.
Soyoung shook her head.
How can I be satisfied with the life I have lived killing innocent people?
If there is at least a sense of guilt, at least they shouldnât be proud of themselves.
Soyoung pulled out the short sword from her waist.
âLetâs kill it slowly.â
her last words.
The remnants of the mercenaries who remained on the first floor and killed people disappeared.

As soon as Ray arrived at Mienâs study, he started searching through the bookshelves to find a point.
At first, Mian, who wondered if there was a book she wanted to find, left him alone and made her own black tea.
After an hour like that, Ray laid out a bunch of ugly tools from his leather backpack as if he had found something.
Seeing that, Mien couldnât help but drink black tea.
she asked in a hurry.
âWhat are you doing now?â
âIâm going to dig out a little bit where this bookshelf is.â
âWhat are you talking about! Why is the bookshelf suddenly intact?â
to save you
It canât be explained that way.
Ray started working right away.
As I tried to renovate the study, taking out a fairly well-made tool, Mien grabbed the sleeve and tore it off.
âThis is my study!â
âAh, Iâm going to remodel a little bit!â
âRimo⦠what are you talking about! Donât touch my books!â
You donât even know youâre trying to save yourself!
As Mien continues to interfere, the work progresses slowly.
It seemed that only then would it be difficult to meet the time promised with Soonbok.
Ray memorized the starting language.
âAir hand! Silence!â
An air cushion was made in one corner to keep Mien from getting hurt.
Even the sound was blocked, so she couldnât hear her screams anymore.
Being given a comfortable environment to work in, Ray felt even more at ease.
âThere are a lot of things that need to be modified.â
The outside is blocked by a mana barrier, so I canât go out.
So I have no choice but to reveal what becomes the branch from within.
Whatâs more, it happened to be felt through the bookshelf in the study.
Ray cautiously poured mana on the wall.
It was weakly emitted mana in case someone touched the mana membrane, but it was enough to figure out the structure beyond the bookshelf.
Beyond the wall was a small wall box.
However, since the mana flowed thinly around here, it was not difficult to work without touching it.
It was impossible to reveal all the magic circles just to break a branch.
He took out something like a sharp awl.
âIt will be a big job.â
Yo should try to uncover the wall box without touching Mana.
Ray lifted the bookshelf.
Then, the old-fashioned wallpaper of the study was revealed.
After making small cuts in the wallpaper, she looked at the mana flowing again to figure out the location.
Enough to not touch mana.
Two or three hours passed in an instant as I picked out the parts that needed to be broken with a sheath and the parts that shouldnât be touched.
Soon, Mien was tired and fell asleep in the seat.
ââ¦done.â
division is over.
Now all you have to do is break down the wall to where the wooden box is.
However, even small damage can change the flow of mana, so if you are not careful, something could happen.
Ray carefully moved the sculpting tool as if he were undergoing surgery.
Whoa-!
When mana was blown into a tool that could only be used in a workshop, the hard wall was dug out like tofu.
be careful be careful
Letâs slowly cut down the wall while focusing the senses on the fingertips.
Tududuk-
I was able to reach the wall box shortly after.
The wall box was completely destroyed without touching any mana lines.
Then, I was able to confirm the identity of the branch inside.
âThis isâ¦â
A stone the size of a fist.
A long sentence was written on it.
Is it the password of the black room?
If not, is it the language of the western continent?
It was difficult to interpret because it was a language I had never seen before.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
In any case, the fact that this stone was becoming a fulcrum remained the same.
If you donât destroy it, the dungeon wonât lose its function.
Ray etched the words into his mind for a moment and then drew his sword.
Tens of minutes until the time promised with Subok.
After that, the alarm magic will sound.
âIf Soonbok didnât finish the preparationâ¦â
No one knows what will happen to the dungeon then.
With a clear expression of nervousness, Ray stared at the stone incessantly.
