“Kirk. If you drag me out of time, the rest of the clan will be here. I heard that the Red Axe Clan is moving. ”

Carlan, the Red Cross Goblin Clan Road, spoke in a heavy voice at the Clan Road meeting. At the end of his speech, each of the roads gathered in the meeting frowned at the glans.

Red Axe Clan. It was a clan made by Orc adventurers.

In particular, Red Axe Clan Road was a famous adventurer who reached the ranks. There are few early adventurers who can be called the deepest step in a maze of layers.

Rankers told me they could get out of the system. Even though he is not a ranker, he is superior to the Goblin Roads here.

It is no longer difficult for the other clans to join the attack. The more clans you participate in, the more you have to share. Moreover, if they are skilled Orcs, they may intercept their most important share.

It was good at first. The dungeon's defenses were low. However, I don't know where it came from, but suddenly the human soldier who hit the back of the head was the first variable. A force that overwhelms the size of the dungeon suddenly pops out.

These small-town dungeons usually have 100 or so troops.

Maybe they were trapped at the time. I wanted to know how close they were.

“Kirk. Then what are you going to do? ”

When one of the clan roads asked, Carlan sighed.

“We have to end the attack quickly. ”

“Kirk! Who doesn't know that!? ”

This fight was completely different from just hunting monsters. It was almost a battle of war to find and subdue the humans who were hiding their bodies.

Many Goblins are here.

Thanks to that, many supplies are consumed every day as follows: Moreover, the supply problem was quite difficult considering this is a dungeon somewhere in the maze. That's why I came here with a lot of preparation.

As the attack stops right in front of the nose, each clan suffers heavy damage every day. It is far out of the category to discuss gains already made. It was solely because of fame that pushed them all the way here.

It is a great reputation to target human dungeons. It soon became a big help when they left the Goblin city of Hayra where they belonged and were operating in other medieval cities.

Now all that's left is that reputation. However, even that reputation may be taken away by others, so the annoyance soared. Moreover, pride was also damaging.

That's what it means to open up the power of another race. Probably the same idea as the adventurer guild leader in Haira by now. Now I couldn't let the others come and spoon me.

Carlan said that Najib was right.

“So let's join forces. ”

Once the soldiers' garrison was completed in the village, players will soon be able to access it. At least you need a tent to stop the cold night wind when you sleep.

Moreover, it was better to have something on top than sit on a hard floor.

"I have something to share with you for a moment. Will everyone please come?"

Players who sat on the ground for a long time without discomfort gathered slowly in front of the garrison.

Arance confirmed that all the players were gathered and said:

"What I'm going to share with you from now on is a stone with a special power made by machining a stone called a homing stone. This stone is a precious object that can save your lives, and I hope you will never leave it in your arms."

A homing stone. It was one of the useful items for wandering around the maze. The user who owns it has the power to forcibly return it to the village at the moment of death.

However, it was meaningless when the user took immediate damage. Even if I had it, I couldn't necessarily live with it.

Furthermore, the return stone loses its power if it falls a certain distance from the registered village. The higher the grade of the return stone, the greater the distance, but the price rose geometrically and was a disposable item.

It was obvious that the return stone was expensive, but now that we're in town from the start, we won't need much good stuff to lose. The distance travelled is short, so it is enough as a low-grade return stone.

The registered place of movement is expected to be probably Lorelai's temple.

At first, I didn't know what the Return Stone was. Everyone looked back, but Arance explained it in more detail and everyone rushed to line up in case they didn't have enough quantity.

After the return stone was dispensed, Arance was a little late, but began to deploy players to the unit. Several platoons were quickly formed, with one of the expeditionary soldiers as platoon commander.

In a case like ours, a man called Lute became platoon commander. I didn't see my face because I'm not here right now, but I wanted to be a capable man to some extent.

“Phew, Phew. Is this how it goes today? ”

Gil Yumi mumbled as he wiped off the cold sweat, whether he was depressed by the surrounding atmosphere, which had been full of tension for half a day. I couldn't rest because the soldiers were constantly moving around somewhere.

Are you tired today? Nam Gun Min and Lee Seo-yeon, both of them were getting sleepy. I thought about what to do with them, and I decided to leave them alone. We have to look at the situation now.

Song Gyeong came to me when he was covering them with a blanket he had brought.

“How long are we supposed to be here? ”

“Why don't you? ”

“It's not a very nice atmosphere. People here care about us, too. ”

She covered the book she was reading and looked at the residents who were carrying something around diligently. Interestingly, what the villagers were giving out was food.

Probably potatoes. Given the food situation this place is experiencing, what we are giving will be valuable food for residents. Residents share what they eat with soldiers.

Song Ga-yeon looked at the villagers' behavior with a lonely smile.

“· · · That must be the baldness of the people who want to live somehow. ”

Soldiers must fight to survive. The inhabitants know it well. Already, some residents seem to be moving as soldiers with sloppy armaments, but not very believable.

Adventurers who have fought monsters in the maze are not weak enough to lose to the villagers. Even if it's a Goblin.

I looked at them and said,

“We're nothing like them. ”

“· · · Yes? ”

In my words, Song Gyeong-yeon curled his head as if in doubt. Her long eyelashes tremble slightly. I laughed because it was fun. I was interested in what I said.

“How well do you think we can fight now? ”

“That's · · ·. ”

She blurred her end. She wouldn't know it yet either. I don't know how many Goblins and monsters I met in the tutorial are in this world yet.

To be honest, the Goblins we met in the tutorial were lousy and weak. At least Bisquaire seemed intimidating. However, Visquiardo is just a monster in the maze.

When we try, we don't even have a month to fight monsters with swords.

Moreover, even if I were Song Ga-yeon, Gil Yumi, Nam Gunmin and Lee Seo-yeon here, I was a student on a plane to enjoy my mathematical journey.

The only change that has happened to children in such a short time is the willingness to fight. In that respect, we were no different from the villagers here.

What's different from what we were fighting in the tutorial when they raised their swords to live before they died?

“We must have changed a lot through the tutorials. But that's all in the end. ”

I looked at Arance, who was moving soldiers all day from that distance.

Full of tired faces. I've never seen him rest a day.

This is a commander who actually directs soldiers, not an actor in a weaved script.

“We don't have special training, we don't have special powers. The powers that we think are special are only ordinary here. ”

Just plain Soldier A, who walks around diligently according to Arans right now, is stronger than the players. Their spears and blacks are sharper than those of the players, and each is different.

From the experience I have gained in the first place, it has been overwhelming for a long time.

“· · · Type. That's what makes me so depressed. ”

I smiled bitterly at the voice of the southern archipelago coming up from the floor. The sleepy one looks up at me with humorous eyes.

“Am I too loud? ”

“· · · That's not it. I just woke up. ”

Meanwhile, the southern archipelago opened its mouth and yawned.

"Brother. I have a question..."

Gil Yumi also raised his hand to ask if he was listening to my story. It's like he's a student. No, really a student. I felt like a teacher.

Then Gil Yumi blinked and asked.

“So is Mr. Arans there strong? ”

“· · · I call that a question. ”

His strength will be beyond the imagination of children.

I think he's in charge of the Expeditionary Force, so he must be strong. Honestly, I can't tell you how strong I am. But when you think about it, roughly.

“· · · Do all the players here have to run to catch it? ”

“Is he that strong? ”

“You must be strong. You must be strong. ”

“· · · Why? ”

“He can use something we can't use yet. ”

There, Song Gyeong-yeon was caught up in the story.

“What we can't use? ”

I wanted to tell you something too much at the moment, but I thought back to what I had borrowed from Song Gyeonggi before. It's from a book she brought before, so it won't be a problem.

“Magical power.”

“Ah · · ·. ”

Song Gyeong-yeon nodded his head as if he had realized it. In this conversation with me, Gil Yumi frowned at my glance, but it was hard to explain.

Because if you don't go through it yourself, you don't know it very well.

At least Song Gyeong was able to react to the word magical power because she had already been a former spiritual master and dealt with magical power.

“So you're saying that Mr. Arans is strong because of his magic? ”

“There's a lot of other things to say simply because of magic, but it is. ”

For those of us who haven't opened their magic yet, Arans is just a monster. In the first place, any skilled soldier would know how to use magic.

The presence or absence of power without using magic is considerable.

I felt the difference even more definitely.

Now, thinking of the faded senses of the day, I put my hands on my chest. I can only feel the heartbeat. I took a long breath, feeling the beating that was quietly trembling.

Still can't use magic power. Should I get a job as well?

When you get a job, you have the ability to hold a job called "Magic Opening." It is not even possible to use it unexpectedly because it occurs · · ·.

It was then.

Quuuuuuuuu · ·.

Suddenly there was a huge bang in the sky. Screams burst out from everywhere. The majority belonged to the players and villagers. The southern archipelago next to him stood up and lifted up his weapon.

“Hey, what's this? ”

He must have seen it, too. It's a moment, but the night sky changes brightly.

“· · · · This is a mistake. It's magic."

Song Ga-yeon said in a cheap voice, as he solved the question of the Nam Archer.

There was only one answer because there was no way anyone could bring cannons or anything in this maze.

When I was holding a weapon while waking up in this year's sleep.

“Everybody get ready for battle! ”

Where the bloody face went, Arance was screaming with a face full of hot heat.
