Episode 36: Escape from Imperial Castle Dungeons

The dungeon of Imperial Castle.

You can reach it by going down the stone stairs behind Emperor Castle.

Exactly. I'm walking a stone staircase in my armor and I can't turn off my footsteps.

"... hmm?

When I went down the stairs and reached the dungeon, a soldier who was holding a spear in his hand and looking out for me in his spare time noticed my presence.

"What's up...? It's early for a change, and you weren't in charge today."

"Oh, I need you for a minute."

"Is that a transmission?

The lookout is approaching without looking alert.

If you reach out, you block your watch eyes with your hands where you've come close to the distance you can reach and you can't see anything.

"Hey what...!?

The watch is abrupt.

I couldn't have stayed grasping the body of a trained soldier if my own powerless body grew up in a slum. But the body I'm using now is the same body I kept working out every day as on the lookout. I have as much power as I'm grasping for a few seconds.

"All right......!

Ten seconds after grabbing it, the force falls out of the body of the watch and becomes like a doll.

At the same time, the body I've been using falls to the floor.

"I don't need this body anymore."

The body I was using just now is rolling in front of me.

Especially inconsiderate. I stab my heart with a spear I had in my hand.

"Well..."

Explore newly acquired body memories.

I found a sturdy vault in front of the dungeon, which contained the keys to the dungeon.

The vault must have a dialed four-digit PIN.

Naturally, I don't know the right PIN.

However, even though the Dungeon Watch was able to work for Imperial Castle, the watch, which held quite a position, was properly given a PIN in case of need.

"Open"

Aligning the correct PIN numbers opened the safe.

Remove the key bundle from inside and open the entrance to the dungeon.

There were many prisoners in the dungeon, but only one (...) wanted to see me until I took the risk.

"What? If it's mesh time, we should be way ahead."

The guy was looking forward to the meal with no hesitation, even though he was locked up.

Maybe it's more comfortable by thinking about the life of a dungeon with a decent meal out than the life of a slum that doesn't know if you'll get tomorrow's food.

"It's me."

"Aniki!"

The man who was making me rob him at my behest - the gon comes close and looks like an iron lattice.

Aniki, what they call it is not connected to Gong and his brother Bong. While I lived in the slums of the same city and just became one with nature. Because of my age, I am familiar with my brother.

"You're here to help me."

My brother Bong came close too.

"So you're right about me. Aniki said he'd get us out just like I said."

Late in the night the first day these guys were captured.

By then, I was able to sneak into the dungeon without difficulty, possessing one of the possessed subjects I had planted beforehand because it was still before my presence was exposed. At that time he was giving instructions so that he could talk to the public: 'Be sure to help me out, so stay put until then'.

They put their absolute trust in me, but they just gave up somewhere because they thought it would be hard to get them out of the dungeons of Imperial Castle.

"Aniki, that body is a lookout."

"Yes."

"How did you get here?

Open the entrance to the cell where the two men were kept and go outside.

I go back to where the watch stood because it's a bad idea to be asked about my skills.

"I used this guy's body to sneak in"

The body I used to reach the dungeon was a soldier working in Imperial Castle, and I was encouraging him to train at a training ground outside Imperial Castle now, not even during the war.

The training grounds are also located in the Imperial Castle, so even if there is a break and the soldiers are urrowing, they will not be so suspicious.

"Did you kill him?

"Oh, you're not so strong just because you're a good family member, and you're not a serious military man, so you're not gonna have a problem"

In fact, I was able to possess him because he wasn't serious.

There are conditions for me to use [possession] skills against them.

The first person I own or possess must be touching the subject's head for a few seconds. The amount of time you need to be touching depends on the strength of your opponent.

The only reason I blocked the sight of the lookout was to make the lookout on the dungeon a new possession. If the average person is the opponent, three seconds is enough, but it took ten seconds, which means he was pretty strong on the lookout.

It took me a while to be able to possess this guy too, but he was drinking in a liquor store near the slam and touching where he was drunk so I could get it easier than I expected.

There were other objects of possession in Imperial Castle, but they were deactivated in just one day. However, this guy skipped the training until today, when his boss got mad at him for not being serious. Thanks to this, I didn't have to be noticed that there was a leak in the deactivation of the subject.

"We're leaving."

Take the two of you up the stone stairs.

"Aren't you faster with my skills?

I'm going to suggest that Bong get out faster with his skills [out of the wall].

But I can't use it here.

I guess I haven't tried it because I've been trapped in a dungeon all my life and didn't even have the temptation to use my skills to escape because I was being watched by a knight during interrogation.

"This underground wall has the effect of disabling skills"

It was in the guard's memory that it was made of special materials to prevent intrusion and destruction.

Rumor has it that special materials were obtained from the depths of the labyrinth, but the details were not known by exploring the memory of the lookout.

"So we need to get out on our own to the ground."

Intrusion by illegal means was inhibited by special walls, but it was not envisaged to anyone entering or leaving the entrance in an authentic way.

The light of day dazzles when you go out onto the earth.

The entrance to the dungeon was unpopular and had not been seen by anyone.

You can rest assured if you get here.

Rub through the walls of the Imperial Castle with Bonn's skill [Wall Out], plus rub through the exterior walls to get out of the Imperial Castle.

"You did it."

In Bonn with less magic, I was flirting with the unbearable use of [wall-through], which consumes more magic than I imagined.

"Oh, well done"

Stick a spear through Bon's chest, which is fluttering.

"Huh...?

Bon looking down at his chest without knowing what happened.

In those eyes, you should see your own breasts flowing heavily with blood when the spear is pulled out, but you fall to the ground unbelievably stunned.

"Bong! Aniki, what are you doing... Huh!

Grab Gong's head as he rushed over to the fallen bong.

Gong, who was acting as a thief, had a higher status than I, but less muscle strength than the watch I now possess. I'm desperately waving my hands and feet around, but I can't escape my restraints.

"Aniki......"

"You're the only one who needed me."

"Say what..."

"I didn't make you possessed until now because I couldn't make you possessed."

If the three of us were to work, it would have been more efficient for me to possess another person to support them while I was letting them work.

That's why I didn't make it a possessive destination.

Thanks to this, these guys were escaping enemy alert.

"Aniki......"

Power falls out of Gong's body as he calls me.

"We've been together for years, but this is the first time you've used this body"

My body is blunt because I've been locked in a dungeon for over two days, but I can't help it as much as this.

"Sir."

After a few moments of waiting, a man comes near who lives in Slam Street who was giving money to wait in this place and instructing him to.

I decided to hire him for money because he might alert his enemies that he was someone he could possess.

"Give me the example."

"Yes!

I'll hand you the bottle the man was sneaking in his nostalgia.

"I did receive"

Hand a man a piece of silver coin as a reward.

"Thank you"

He rushes out like a man runs away.

It's the same amount of money for the nobles who are going to work stealing, but it was the same amount of money for the people who live in the slums. I guess you don't want the big money you got stolen.

"Well..."

Drink up the contents of the bottle you received.

"Ugh..."

My body gets hot as it burns.

The medicine I have taken has the effect of dramatically strengthening the skills of the user. It reduces the lifespan of the user as its recoil. Specifically, you'd be better off if you could worship the morning sun tomorrow.

"I'm sorry, but I'll let you use your skills effectively."

The patient's body has recoil.

However, I am only allowed to use my body with a burning exhilaration that has no life-threatening effect.

"Let's make sure it's useful at the end of the day."
