“But do you really need that map? Why don't you just do a quick sweep and fly in and find out where it is? ”

Ryan grunts, but he knows it's close to impossible.

The dungeon here was too large to know its location from the sky.

You can see the overall shape, but you can't see what's already there.

Even though it's a vision.

Just like taking pictures of my country on high airspace doesn't make it easy to figure out where it is.

The dungeon underneath the bottle here was much wider than South Korea. So if we don't get the right map, we don't know how long it's going to take to get what we want.

“The map is so...... Can I trust that Earl Xenon? ”

Ryan tilts his head with a suspicious look.

Earl Xenon was saved by Hyun-seok. The stone also opened the Shadow Man's Vault to find his equipment and seal.

The equipment that most humans visited at the time was a useful artifact.

So this kind of help was actually natural. Nevertheless, it was hard to believe Earl Xenon.

It was just a hunch. Ryan's instincts.

“I think... you seem like a nice person, don't you? ”

Ryu Ji-hye carefully asked.

In fact, I didn't know Ryu Ji-hye or Lyon or what they were saying here, so I had no choice but to see the atmosphere with my face.

You'd know better if you had a real conversation, but it was frustrating because it didn't work.

“By the way, when did you learn to speak here? ”

Ryu Ji-hye looked at the stone with a curious eye and asked. Then Ryan, who was next to the stone, added a meaningful expression to the question.

“You... You knew people lived here from the beginning, right? ”

The stone stone was momentarily lost in thought.

I mean, I can just do it. It was impossible to explain it logically. No, there was one way.

“Skill.”

“Skill? Is this a skill that helps you understand? That's convenient. ”

The stone shakes its head.

“It's not just a skill that makes you understand words, it's a skill that eliminates constraints in every language. ”

The words startled Ryan.

“What the hell! You have such deceptive skills! ”

Hyun-Seok stared at Ryan and said.

“I think the existence of the player is a scam. Isn't it?”

If you say so, I have nothing else to say.

Ryan takes a taste and asks, looking at the stone with gleaming eyes again.

“So what's the answer to the next question? You knew there were people living here, didn't you? You've never been to Whitehall. ”

As well as relationships with the forest tribes, Ryan seems to be a very mysterious and secretive man.

“Tell me the truth. So you got something else in mind? For example……. ”

Ryan opens his eyes wide and flicks his fingers as if something had come to his mind.

“Gold!”

Ryan glances at the stone with a bright expression.

“Gold! Gold! Did you prepare some gold in advance? ”

Currencies used in this dungeon world were gold and silver. So it would be really useful if you had enough gold.

At first, he complained that he didn't tell me, but it was obvious that he didn't have to tell me.

Why? I'm sure he's prepared as much as he needs.

“Anyway, so is that. How else did you know there was only gold and silver? Isn't this... too much of a secret? I mean, we're partners. ”

Ryan reasonably demands information.

However, Hyun-seok had no information to tell him. That's all he knows now.

The currency here is gold and silver.

Hyun-seok takes Ryan seriously.

“Start with the words. ”

Ryan clams his mouth shut. It was a complicated language that made my head dizzy just hearing it.

And you want me to learn that? I couldn't even beat him to death.

Hyun-seok looks around the group. You turn your head without exception.

Even Ryu Hye-yeon did that. No, Ryu Hye-yeon added more.

She is the brightest of the party, with the exception of stringent stones. That's why I figured it out first.

The language spoken by the humans here is really difficult.

“Do you have any skills to engrave language on your head? ”

Ryan grumbles. If you have it, you'll buy it for whatever you want.

Anyway, the story goes back to square one.

“So you're just going to wait and believe in Earl Xenon or whatever? ”

Everyone glances at the stone, glowing at Ryan's question.

After all, the leader and decision maker of this group is the jackpot.

If Hyun-seok says yes, he will do whatever is dangerous, and if he says no, he will not do whatever is beneficial.

That was the will of everyone here.

“Just wait. I'm sure there's some intention, but I don't think it's malicious. ”

In conclusion, everyone nodded and accepted. However, the word intention caught my mind.

“By the way...... Can't we do something about these ladies?" It's not for sale. ”

Ryan grumbles. Maybe this is more about surveillance than just a market place.

“What do you care if they don't even understand what we're saying? ”

“Not really.”

Everyone nods. It is also helpful when different languages are like this.

Of course, we don't know what kind of help it would be in this situation if the conversation hadn't flowed over there.

That's how time passed.

“I think this is the most amazing thing. Day and night. If this was a dungeon, wouldn't it just be a trapped world? How can there be day and night? ”

“Isn't there another Whitehall? ”

Ryu Ji-hye raises her eyes and asks, "Ryan shakes his head.

“There's no such thing as Whitehall I know. It's just a black hole. Except the horses don't come back. ”

Ryan walks out of the cottage explaining that.

They were being invited to the family dinner.

“I wonder what people here live for. I'm a little hungry. ”

No, the marble party has had little to eat since entering the dungeon.

I packed a lot of stuff, but I didn't take it out because I didn't have good hands.

So it was not an exaggeration that the dinner that was about to be eaten was almost the first food that came into the dungeon.

Actually, I was a little curious. Can we produce the right grain in a dungeon? Can we raise livestock and eat them?

Although there was day and night here, it wasn't really sunrise. There was just something else that played a similar role.

No, maybe there's just bright light shining around.

Besides, they don't know how far underground they are. Maybe if we dig a little deeper, the end will come soon.

‘Well...... The sky is high, so the ground must be deep. ’

After all, this Whitehall was full of curiosity every time I thought about it.

I wanted to know everything and everything.

The group's gaze settles on the stone. Somehow, Hyundai felt that he would know the answer to all of them.

While I was walking thinking like this, I arrived at the mansion headquarters.

The maids who guided them politely greeted them. Perhaps they were not allowed to enter the headquarters.

The group steps out of the main hall into the butler's guide and goes to the restaurant.

A spacious restaurant appeared as you went straight inside the main hall. Earl Xenon and his family were first seated at the table.

Earl Xenon rises from his seat and greets you.

A few greetings and the attendants approach and guide the group to their seats.

Since the maids paid attention from one to ten, it was easy to eat, but the uncomfortable meal continued.

Food was quite great. It was a family dinner that worked hard in Croccilia.

However, there were very few conversations until the dinner was over.

In this atmosphere, people usually feel overwhelmed or anxious, but there is nothing like that for them.

In fact, it was only part of the dungeon for them.

The way they accepted it was different from the people who lived here.

If this had happened outside the dungeon, the story would have been different.

After all, he and his family appear to be staring brightly at each other, pretending not to care.

The dinner was almost over.

The squadron devours the food to its fullest. I didn't care about manners at all.

I just enjoyed eating freely while being watched.

In fact, I wanted to have a few words while eating, but I couldn't because the atmosphere was solemn.

So I was passionate about eating more. Thanks to you, the table was full of empty dishes.

“Amazing appetite. ”

The first one to speak was Erl Xenon's father, Erl Kransis, who was the owner of the Cransis family here.

The rest take it out one by one, just waiting for him to open his mouth.

It was all the same story. It's an insult to the fact that the party has a great appetite and no manners.

Of course, everyone was just staring away because they only understood the words.

“It's true you don't speak Empire. ”

Earl Xu, the younger brother of Xenon, smiles and says. Someone else did more than that, but there were a lot of thorns in what he said.

“Cover your words. He's my savior.”

“Oh, I did. I forgot. They didn't really fit in, so I couldn't think of anything. ”

Earl Xenon smiled strangely at the appearance of such a juice.

Juke saw that smile. It was as if he was looking down on himself. But that didn't make a difference.

I just sharpened my teeth.

“Now that you've served us dinner... I think you've had enough... haven't you? ”

That's what Juke said and stared at Earl Xenon with burning eyes.

Even though the two brothers fought like this, their father, Grand Chamberlain Krantys, simply watched the scene.

“Juke, that's so rude. Then you may regret it greatly later. ”

Juke smiles bloody. Regret. That's what a man who's been out of his family for two years and now comes back and threatens his place?

I've been struggling to get this foundation up and running! ’

I worked like a dog for two years and barely got my family's recognition.

Earl Xenon, however, naturally melted into the family as if nothing had happened during that time with just a few swings of his sword.

Therefore, it was natural that Juke could not look at Xenon gently. The same is true of the group that rescued Xenon.

Of course, even if it wasn't necessary, it was no wonder he was a guest of Jenon's.

And Hyun-Seok stood up after finishing his meal as if he had no interest in the relationship of the two people.

Everyone stared at the stone with a silly look on their faces.

Hyun-seok looked at Earl Xenon and politely said.

“Thank you for dinner. I want you to take what's coming to you and leave. I don't think he welcomed us. ”

At the words of Hyundai, Juke's expression hardened all the time. That's exactly what I told him to see and hear.

Juke stares at the stone with frightening eyes. However, he didn't blink.

“No, I wouldn't be too sorry if I just went like that. Staying a little longer.... ”

“There is no queen. So I'll leave as soon as I get what I promised. ”

Juke jumps up and looks at the stone and shouts.

“What did you promise me? You're being rude! ”

Hyun-Seok smiled as he looked at such a juke.

“I don't know who's disrespecting who. I've decided to receive detailed information about the map, the Dark Forest, and the Tower of the Horseman. ”

Juke flinches at the words of the stone. And I looked at Earl Xenon with a strange look on my face.

“Brother, did you... promise me that? I don't understand why you made promises you couldn't even keep. ”

But even as he said, Earl Xenon was not to be trifled with.

“I can protect it. ”

Juke's jaw snaps. He looks at his father, Count Krantys. I meant to ask for a verdict.

The expression on the face of Count Krantys was curiosity and anticipation.

“I don't think you said that without thinking...... What are you thinking? ”

Earl Xenon, instead of answering the words of Earl Kraznys, looked at the stone and said,

“Can you do me a favor? It shouldn't be too difficult for you. ”

Hyun-seok smiled. This must have been the plot behind it.

“I didn't realize there were such promises in the first place. ”

“I'm sorry about that. But I promise you I will make sure you pay for it. ”

Hyun-Seok gave a rough quote. I could have predicted what he would ask for.

Everyone was looking at the stone and Xenon with interesting eyes.

Earl Xenon opened his mouth, looking carefully at the eyes and face of the stone. I read the sign of permission.

“I would like to ask you.... ”

The End
