Basement two.

I don't know how much time has passed. No, I'm sure you don't have time to care. The bump stride looks heavier and the shoulders stretch. The face is full of only weariness. The face of the expedition in a slow-paced procession doesn't look good. The Seed of Hope, which was momentarily shriveled, shrugged its head again.

After the advent of the monster, the expedition's march speed is significantly slower. At some point, it's a natural order, but it's quite severe. A monster appeared less than 100 meters away and had to fight. We can barely give up the battle, but then we have to worry about traps everywhere. Just every moment was a series of battles, and the moment you were careless, you plunged into a trap.

That's it. A few ghostly creatures have gathered from all over. Everyone was feeling it.

The creature's behavior is strange. Not long ago, I was quite cautious, but at some point, it changed 180 degrees. It's like a broken machine, constantly repeating searches and raids. How many can there be? The expedition has slaughtered over four hundred of them. That's why it's weird not to get tired.

“How's it going? ”

“Not yet…. Huh?”

Shortly after the battle, I don't even know how many. While resting and touching the crystal, Ko Yong angrily nodded. My eyes were as thin as a thread. What that face means is clear.

“Phew…. ”

Jungyeon, who was looking at her pale face, woke up with a sigh. Maybe it's because he uses a lot of magic. The hand holding the staff is trembling.

“... I'm surrounded again. ”

As she drinks the Tickle Potion, she mutters, stealing liquid from her chest. You don't seem to have the energy to speak, but you grip your teeth and grab the bow.

“Damn it!”

Linc! Similarly, Jin Soo-hyun, who drank the potion, got up and threw the bottle nervously. The status of the branches that flew from the front line was even worse. You don't see any serious injuries, but the body is covered in dark red fluids. Moreover, Jin Soo-hyun's clothing seems to have been blackened or torn.

I was already resting with the dust, so I didn't need to move. The clans stand guard, each armed with its own weapon. And shortly thereafter, a dark shadow was cast from all sides. At the same time, a deafening, writing-like sound echoes through the space.

“... is coming. ”

I already know, but users have reflexively increased their magical power. Three or four spheres rose behind Imhanna's back, and three or four people quickly chanted. Soon something began to appear in the open passageway, as well as in the ground. Those that were more than four meters long began to crawl through the ground like snakes and narrow the perimeter at a rapid rate.

The next moment,

“ ─ ─ ─ ─. ─ ─ ─ ─. Ice Lance! Repeatedly! ”

As dozens of ice spears spread out, the long black waves hit the expedition.

After a short while, a crazy shout and a loud noise echoes through the dark passageway below.

As the ‘Fantasy Doppelgänger’ disappeared, the smoke gradually faded. The scenery that was concealed between the fumes began to look blurry.

The deepest part of the 'Underworld Gang' was definitely a space different from any other room. The arcuate-shaped ceiling, which draws a soft curve at a height of about 10 meters, still has more than half of the beads emitting light. The gray walls, stacked with angled bricks, are worn out but don't show any bumps.

There are six more doors inside, except for the living room where we came in. Considering it's a hideout, it looks like you've created a multi-purpose room. Even though there were holes on the ground or a crunchy smell vibrated, the room kept its true form even as the flow of time passed. It's a royal hideout, so you wouldn't have designed it so uselessly.

If you came all the way here and didn't open it, it's not polite. There's got to be a warehouse here somewhere.

“Hm. Was this a food warehouse? It's empty.”

“Ugh! Ugh! ”

“Oh. This must be the bedroom. Guys, check this out. I think there's a bed. I think there's a bathroom. ”

“Ugh…. Uh-uh-uh..."

Every time I opened the door, I was amazed. I waved the door slightly to see here, but soon I had to sigh.

“Ugh, ugh! ”

“Ahhhh!”

Sitting in a mermaid pose, Gimhan Star squeaks tears like a lady of soap. Now the man falls down and buries his head and cries his head off. There is still no sign of crying. Since I woke up, I've been crying heavily, but I also lifted both my hands and feet. No matter how old I was and how calm I was, I didn't stop. Eventually, I stopped exploring and sat down again.

“Stop crying. Huh? It's not a chick, it's a four-year old user... ”

One curiosity is that if I just sit down like this, two people will do the same thing. I just did. I cried my heart out, but it crawled right up to me. That's it. I don't really understand this behavior, like pushing or leaning against each other in the middle of the road.

Soon after, the two women buried their heads in my arms and began to cry. Do you think she knows me as her mother? A very cute kitten is here.

- Just understand. They're not like you. She must have suffered a lot. Is that what you think?

I know that. But he doesn't say anything even if he asks me what I saw in my vision. Every time I speak out loud, the sound of crying only increases, so it is a reverse effect. Eventually, I muttered again. It was then.

Woof! Woof!

I heard a vibration in my chest. As you reach out your hand, the communication crystal sprinkles a flash of blue light. Just a little magic and you'll know who contacted you. No, you don't need to see who did it.

“ ……. ”

A very short time, arrogance struck my mind. After a long time, the crystal seems to have no intention of turning off the light. I stared at the crystal for a while and put it back in my arms. Then, Gimhanbyol and Hwajeong opened their eyes wide while crying.

“… huff? ”

“… ugh? ”

So now you're going to cry in a language.

The two of them stopped crying as they put it in without answering the phone. Suddenly, it seems like we have only faced the situation with wet eyes. After looking back for a long time, Kim Hanbyol opened his mouth.

“This is…. ”

“The end.”

“… the end, huh? ”

“Do you remember being dragged into bed? ”

They nod cautiously.

“I'm not sure.... This room is probably the deepest part of the ruins. ”

Reason Jung was blinking dazed for a long time. However, Gimhanbyol frowned slightly and suddenly said, "Ah.” I burst the elasticity. I heard something from me and the source when I was on guard, so I think I understand quickly.

“No way...! ”

“Don't worry. It's not a monster food storage. ”

“What about the boss?”

“I've already got it. That's why you guys woke up. ”

Kim Hanbyol gently closed his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief. But soon, it seems that seeing me with complex eyes is still a question. You're probably wondering why you haven't been contacted.

“Then…. ”

I made a prediction, but I was stuck. It was unexpected that these two would come together. I was just going to be dragged in and take care of it myself. However, the situation became quite subtle. How do I say this?

“Brother, don't you think you should call? My sisters must be really worried... ”

Yu-jeong said, twisting his fingers at the hair. Kim Hanbyol agreed.

“That's right, or should I? We're alive. It's okay..."

“I don't know. I think I need to. ”

“… Yes? ”

“Does contacting change anything? We don't even know the way. I'd rather wait here quietly. ”

Just in case. The two frowned at the same time. This explanation is absurd even if you think to yourself.

“Brother, do you tend to enjoy worrying about someone? ”

“Am I a pervert? ”

“Then why? Think about it.How many people are left... ”

“That way, I'll find you more desperately. ”

Eventually, I spoke the truth a little.

The silence settles for a moment. I didn't see them on purpose. I pulled out the lotus grass, bent my chin, and raised my gaze. The ceiling mixes with the light and enters Asrai's eyes. When I closed my eyes, several voices touched my brain.

‘What the hell. I wasn't worrying.I guess I'll just have to trust you this time, huh? Hehe.’

Why are you leaning on me? You can trust yourself. You're the Wizard Hunter I wanted the most, right?

‘I...? Oh, yeah. You better be.'

I'm a close-knit man, and you're an archer. Isn't it normal for archers to lead exploration? But why are you looking so awkward?

‘Wouldn't have made it here if it wasn't for you. ’

What makes you think that? If it wasn't for me, I could have come. Especially since you're so black.

‘Yes, yes. ’

Why, why, why, why.

Why do you take it for granted?

The moment I thought about it,

“... I can't admit it. ”

I opened my mouth without knowing it.

“Damn it, I can't admit it. ”

A growling sound comes out. My eyes are closed, but I can't help but feel the energy in my eyes. I wanted to, but it was Kim.

“There's eight of them. ”

“ ……. ”

“Shadow Queen, Sword Hound, Spell Sniper, Witch of Dusk, Troop Summoner Two, Superintelligence Assembly, and Jegal Hassol. Only five Secrets, one Rare, two Rare Wizards. You can't break into the Underworld with this crew? You think this makes sense? ”

“ ……. ”

One word burst open and it poured out like water. I don't think it's easy to break through these ruins. It was once a place with notoriety similar to the dragon mountain ranges that fell asleep. But in the end, it was attacked. By User.

Kim Hanbyol and Yijeong no longer opened their mouths. I know you're watching me. I just need to say I'm alive. You probably don't understand me. But all of a sudden, I was also one thing.

Suddenly, I felt this situation was a little ridiculous. After choosing the car twice, I started to feel strange about what I thought I was preparing one by one. I couldn't just pick it up and say it, but as time went by, I felt it clearly as the end approached. Not since I was dragged into hell, exactly. I've been feeling this way ever since I thought about it.

‘Shouldn't we skip the national era of Choonchu…. ’

I didn't even realize it was late.

I thought I would do well on my own, and I drew a line on the line that I could do for myself.

On the other hand, they may know and have turned away.

Perhaps there is no difference between being admitted from a moment of regret.

… so, I was hoping.

May the clans prove my admission to be wrong.

In my absence, how far can the clan show?

I wanted to make sure I was here.

Is this the right group to ‘plan'...?

Or a failed group.
