Dungeon Maker

< Chapter 18 # 3 >

&

Ofelia laid out a map on a small glass table between the couches. I didn't have to ask what kind of map it was. The map of the Southern space was clear.

Dragon Hoe rolls his eyes over the map to locate the Mamon family. It is located at the southern end of the palace, and it is not difficult to find its location because it is the Mamon Gain Terrace, which has a huge, huge mountain behind it, the Encarthrow Pagnium.

It was a group map of information, so the locations of dungeons in dozens of southern empty areas were indicated as well as Mamon Street.

The Foras family dungeon is the closest dungeon to the Mamon family dungeon.

Two dungeons, triangulated with the Forest family. And Nuremberg, the free city between the dungeons.

I widened my vision a bit. The triangle Yongho now saw was only a small area, less than a tenth of the area, in terms of the entire Southern space.

Ofelia smiles softly, taking a moment to look at the map for herself. He teased his finger to point to areas in the northwest, far from the Free City.

“This is where Ambrio, the Demon King of Wolves, marched. The number of dungeons he's already defeated is over seven. And I can't say we have yet, but we seem to have won the recent battle against the Confederates. ”

“Joint forces? You mean like the Allied forces? ”

The dragon asked a strange word. Ofelia is in a hurry.

“Yes, four of the nearby ranchers came together to defeat Embrio. Each one of them could boast in the Southern space. ”

Ofelia's finger points to four dungeons. Every one of them is more distant from the dungeons of Embrio than I thought, because Embrio has grown in between.

“Embryo defeated this coalition into the field, not into a dungeon battle. Of course, defeating an enemy unprepared for battle... It may be a tactical victory in some ways, but it cannot disparage Embryo's combat strength. Rather, I think we should appraise the courage, the momentum, and finally the strength to defeat the combined forces. ”

The voice of Ofelia flows with vitality. Whether it was because of the mood, my eyes seemed to be flashing as well.

Maybe she's not just a tavern hostess, but enjoys her own behavior of collecting and analyzing information.

Ophelia looks back at Dragon Hoe and Katarina as if she were looking for agreement.

And he said in a frenzied voice, as if he had realized his mistake.

“Oh, of course there's no need to be so cold... …. ”

You could have been a follower of Embryo if you'd listened to what I just said. It was not something to be excited about in front of his state troops.

Dragon Hoe waves his hand.

“It's okay. It's better than being judged for it. ”

And as Ofelia said, he was certainly a great man.

Only once, the dragon has fought a dungeon battle. The defender's profit in the dungeon battle was truly great. Embryo, however, managed to defeat four forces without such advantage.

It was an unparalleled specialty, and it was an unparalleled ability.

In response to the dragon's response, Ophelia felt both relief and joy.

Her new lord was not a foolish and emotional man.

Maybe you should be the king of greed. It must have been a prodigy fit for a king's position.

The motivated Ophelia reopens her explanation, pointing back to the map.

“It's no exaggeration to say that a typhoon centered on Embrio hit the southern void. Away from Embrio, housewives feel anxious, gather forces, or engage in dungeon warfare. There are even small Embryos floating all over the void. ”

Ofelia pointed the map north-east, south-south and north-east. Each of Embrio's driven housewives is battling a dungeon.

It was also part of this flow that Foras attacked House Mamon.

“The Southern space has not always been peaceful. In the last thousand years, there have been many challenges like this. But no one who worked in the Southern space ever showed up. ”

Ofelia looks up at the dragon.

Yongho never misses the flow of Ophelia's story.

What she's trying to say.

Dragon asked again.

“What do you think? ”

Possibility of Embryo.

Would he be different from the previous housewives?

Ofelia closes her eyes once. It was brief, but after I had thought it through, I said,

“I've never seen it firsthand, I just gather information from afar... but I'm sure it's different now. ”

It was the instinct of the information handler.

Just yesterday - or just this morning - Ophelia thought that Embryo would unite the Southern space in a thousand years.

But not now. That's why Ophelia smiled so brightly.

“But I also realized that this crisis in Embryo is merely a preparation. preparing for the great greedy king in front of me to unify the Southern space. ”

I felt like my eyes were sparkling. He was just a cousin of Eligos by the looks of him.

Ophelia, full of excitement, says.

“If the greedy king stood up with a flag now, every housewife in the Southern Hemisphere would be on their knees. Embryo is a trampling target. The Southern space will go back over a thousand years, under the command of House Mamon, and the time of the greatest Demon King will come! ”

He finished with his arms wide open.

Greed and Amon smile in the gleaming eyes of Ophelia.

However, the reactions of those listening to the story were different.

Katarina shows embarrassment with a face that neither agrees nor denies, and Likum looks at Ofelia with eyes that she's either crazy - or in love with Abu -. Skull lowers his head to the back of the couch and opens his mouth wide. - I didn't seem to have any ideas. -

And the dragon, facing Ophelia's resplendent gaze, turns away. However, I could not avoid the aura of praises gushing from the front, but at least I could find room to vomit.

I felt like I could tell.

I could also understand why Ofelia was so misunderstood.

The dragon clears his voice with a clear-headed cough, rolling his eyes in an unusual atmosphere and looking around, looking back at Likum instead of Ofelia. He spoke in a low but gentle voice.

“Likum. I'm sorry, but could you spend some time downstairs? ”

Likum was not embarrassed by the gentle expulsion order. He stood up immediately and said as if he cared about dragons.

“Very well, thank you for your consideration. You don't have to be so thoughtful. ”

Likum was not a slave laborer like Katarina or Skull. He had never been intertwined temporarily with Yongho like Ofelia, and he was not in a position to deal with information.

It had only been a few days since I joined, so I could understand when I was told to leave when I was talking about something really important.

Yongho nods once, and Likum looks back at Ofelia. Instead of amazing her, Ofelia immediately said what she needed to say.

“Once you're outside, the Harpies will take you to a place where you can rest. ”

“I'll see you in a minute, then. ”

Likum pays his respects to Yongho and leaves the room.

Since releasing Likum itself was indicative of the importance of the story going forward, the light of tension was a little on Ophelia's face. Catarina also swallowed dry saliva.

Yongho and Ofelia had a brief but spiritual connection.

We didn't know how much information we shared in the meantime, but the reaction seemed to be less information than we thought.

How far will you tell Ofelia?

Yongho quickly judged. As a result of what Ofelia, who became a minister, and what she now knew, she calculated what to do in the Mamon family.

“Ofelia.”

“Yes, my greedy king. ”

Ofelia answered heavily. Dragon Hoe draws the sword of Amon from his waist and places it on the glass table.

“This is Amon. ”

A little silence passed.

Katarina looks back at Ofelia, swallowing her dry saliva. She looks at Amon with a blank face.

I tried to find extraordinary somehow, at most from a one-meter long, shapeless iron tack, and I opened my lips very, very hard.

“I... look... a lot different from snow, right? ”

At the end, I smiled somehow. But the dragon shakes its head. He told me the obvious.

“Amon has degraded himself to my level. ”

The word "degeneration" was very direct. Yongho continued.

“I'm growing up now. And my growth takes time. ”

I used the word 'growth’ instead of ‘weak’.

Ophelia blinks between what she saw in the dragon's mouth and the gaps between the words coming out of the dragon's mouth.

Dragon laughs bitterly. As I handled the information, I made the truth of the current Mamon family clear to Ofelia, who needs to know the situation of the Mamon family more clearly than anyone else.

“First of all.”

“First...? ”

“There are fewer than twenty of the Mamon family's servants combined. Together with you here in front of me. ”

&

“I'm down.”

Ophelia, who was lying on the couch in the office where Yongho left, suddenly said.

Harpies who were no longer able to suppress their curiosity called out to Ofelia very carefully.

“M-sir? ”

“I got scammed. ”

Ofelia said it again.

The Mamon family was truly humble.

The number of labor horses was really less than twenty, and the assets they stockpiled per year. No, there was even a debt to the Dungeon Chamber.

Just by looking at the Dungeon's capacity, it was worse than the Dungeon of the Forest family, which had lost both the Gaju and the main combat strength.

And Yongho, the greedy king, was also weak. Perhaps by now, Ambrio was more likely to rob the owner of the emptiness, rather than the emptiness.

To be honest, I was beginning to wonder if the tavern's power was much stronger.

I declared myself king of greed to such a judge and told him that if he stood up, the Southern space would be unified by itself.

The Harpy is surprised by the sensitive words and once again looks hard at the look on the owner's face. And I was embarrassed.

Ofelia smiles. I mean that, too.

“The King of the South has returned at last. ”

It was clearly humble and weak.

But the greed and Amon that she saw was real.

He had surpassed a thousand years of greed and inherited the power of the Demon King.

Also, Amon, the leader of the Red Flame, was watching over him ‘until he degraded himself.'

Yongho said he was growing.

Correct, there was no more appropriate expression.

And his power.

His power.

The power of evolution befitting a growing king!

Ofelia was wrong about herself.

But my gut was right.

The adversity caused by the Demon King Embrio of Wolves will give birth to a new southern king.

The chaos he has caused will be enough time for growth.

What Ofelia must do for such a king.

First, I had to hide my greed and Amon. His competitors had to make sure that the other seven generations of evil kings who ruled the Magic Cube still looked down on the Mamon family.

It wasn't hard. A little hoax will do that.

“The Demon King of Flame. ”

Ofelia told me that she explained to the embarrassed Harpy with a generous smile.

“This is the name of the new Lord of the Mamon Family. He's the Fire Lord. ”

Many in the Free City have seen him defeat the Land Worm with flames. That's why the Harpy grumbled and wrote the information on a notebook that he always kept, saying he knew as a loyal secretary what it meant.

Ofelia shrugs. And then I smiled like an idiot again.

‘The Mamons will rise again. You must.'

My father was full of life every time I told Kaiwan's story.

Ofelia nods. For the first time, I gave my consent to what I had always denied since my father died.

&

“Can I go back already? ”

Katarina, who was riding in a wagon to Mamon Street, turned to the free city and asked with a slightly uneasy voice.

Dragon Hoe, who was sitting next to him, replied with a little more body on the back of the chair.

“I did everything I needed to do. Ophelia's going to visit the dungeon soon. You want to take a break? ”

“No, no, no, no. ”

Katarina quickly denies it. He seemed confused because he thought he would be healed when he saw his ears pounding.

Yongho stroked Katarina's head once and said.

“I've got a lot of work to do. You have to register a princess as a war horse, and you have to evolve a salamander or a Treant. Better than a dungeon. ”

It was Salamander and Treant whose evolutionary skills were close to 100 after the battle with Forest. As soon as I got back, I didn't know it was possible to evolve.

Ofelia gave the dragon two wagons with stable stones. He also gave me the supplies I needed right away, some money, and information I needed right away.

It was too conspicuous to draw power from the tavern right now.

It was the best choice for now, to be able to keep up with each other's inner and outer forces in secret.

Skull, a sneaky, talented man, drives a wagon. Likum follows the wagon on his horse, and Katarina once again looks back at the free city.

Dragon Hoe raised his hand to see Kaiwan's ring and an unnamed bracelet.

The legacy of Kaiwan, Gaju, three generations ago.

And perhaps the most valuable of such legacies is the presence of the Day of Heritage Arena.

It was exactly what I said to Opila.

Yongho himself was growing.

“Skull!”

Skull joyfully drives the wagon. The dragon closes its eyes in a rhythmically shaking wagon.

The Mamon family dungeon is not far away.
