Main Character Hides His Strength

Mimi Azrael appears to be in her mid-twenties.

He had cold blue eyes that were shining beyond his hoodie.

“I'm going to ask you again. Who are you?”

She pulls out her cane.

“Room 34."

Kim Sung-cheol pointed fingers at the number tag made of cloth attached to his coat.

Mimi Azrael didn't know what it meant.

“Mr. 34. So, how did you get here? ”

Mimi Azrael stared at Bertelgia flying behind Kim Sung-cheol.

“Mimi! The book is flying around! It's amazing!”

“That's called a minister. Don't make fun of me if I'm ignorant! ”

Homunklace howls under her skirt.

She raises her cane, and the Homunklaces bow their heads and shut their mouths together.

Once again, Mimi Azrael sent a gaze of longing for answers to Kim Sung-cheol as she was still in the dungeon.

“Now, what's the answer? ”

Kim Sung-cheol glanced at Mimi with his undamaged eyes and said in a bold voice.

“… investigating what's inside this dungeon. ”

When Mimi Azrael heard that, she became cynical.

“You have a big liver. I don't know where you're from, but you better back off in a week. ”

“Why?”

“It would be continental. Willie Gilford is coming this way. ”

“ ……. ”

Nothing will change when he comes.

Kim Sung-cheol was silent.

Mimi Azrael stared at the holes beyond Kim Sung-cheol.

“What's this? Did you do this? ”

Kim Sung-cheol was neither positive nor negative.

“A living book type of servant. You look like a wizard.”

Already, she examined Kim Sung-cheol's abilities in the transparent fog.

It was not much of a stat.

That's why she appeared to Kim Sung-cheol even though she was alone.

“What does that have to do with you if I'm not a magician? ”

Kim Sung-cheol opened his mouth.

Mimi Azrael looked at Kim Sung-cheol with cold eyes and turned away.

“Chief Investigator Weeping. Put up the veil.”

Mimi and the five homuncles were wrapped in clear fog and disappeared before Kim Sung-cheol's eyes.

“I'm warning you, you'd better get out of here. There's another slow-moving Sword Master out here besides me. And in a week's time...”

Throwing a mixed threat, she disappears into the darkness.

But Kim Sung-cheol has the eyes of truth, the spirit.

Mimi Azrael and the five homuncluses hidden in the transparent fog came into Kim Sung-cheol's sight.

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol silently stepped on Mimi Azrael's back while hiding his movements.

*

She walks silently like a cat and reaches a point.

It was surrounded by rapidly fortified walls.

There are approximately 15 soldiers and investigators breathing.

“Ugh...”

Wounded soldiers were also quite well.

One of the soldiers fists in the air muttering words he couldn't understand if he was fatally wounded.

Even the caring wizard gave up, and he was left in a cold corner of the park to die slowly.

It was then that Mimi Azrael removed the invisible veil.

“A human is dead! ”

“He's the one who tortured us! ”

The silent homuncluses begin to reinstall.

“Mimi asked you to abandon the ruins and retreat. Why don't these fools listen to her? ”

“That's because you're stupid! ”

“But the time has come for us to become real fairies quickly, too! ”

A noisy voice that I don't want to hear resonates in the middle heat in the void.

It was then.

“Shut the fuck up! ”

A man shouted.

Michael Gilford, son of Willie Gilford.

The young man wearing a gorgeous armor that sticks to his body in a dense posture shouted at Mimi Azrael with an angry face as soon as she appeared.

“How many times have I told you to shut your fucking mouth? Huh? What are you gonna do when the witches come back? This fucking witch. ”

“... I think your voice is louder? ”

There was no change in Mimi Azrael's face even in front of the fierce roaring Michael.

Michael Gilford stared at Mimi like that for a while, then began chewing his lips tightly and wielding his sword.

“That's not why I'm bringing a witch! You have to slaughter the vile magicians and scum with a visible tribal sword! ”

“If you cut me down, you should know that this expedition is over. I'm the only one who knows the way. ”

Michael Gilford's face is even more distorted.

Then a man stopped him.

He was dressed as a butler in a house with a huge knife print on his face that didn't match his solemn face.

“Young master, there's nothing good to be angry about here. ”

“Hmm... Old Od. ”

Surprisingly, he disappeared as if he had washed away Michael Gilford's anger.

He showed a change of emotion so quickly that the person he was watching couldn't adapt to it, then smiled and asked Mimi Azrael for an apology.

“I'm sorry. Commander, the situation is so frustrating that I can't control my anger either. I don't want to be an adult.”

Mimi Azrael heard his apology and saw no reaction.

Instead, you report your reconnaissance with a stiff gaze and voice as if you were looking at an object.

“… I'll just report on the reconnaissance results. ”

Michael Gilford sits on a rock and nods.

“There was a man who appeared to be a wizard in the sound of something crumbling. ”

“A human man? Who are you?”

Michael was startled and asked in a hurry.

“I didn't know I belonged. He called himself number 34. He was dressed as a lowly Summoner, and he was carrying a living drum as a chariot. ”

“A living book. That precious thing. How strong is he? Intermediate Wizard Level? ”

“I've seen your stats, but they're not that big. But we can't rule out the possibility that he's hiding his abilities. Maybe a demon disguised as a human. ”

“Demons don't come here. I can't make it. That's where their drama is. ”

Michael chuckles.

“And I looked up his group once, but I couldn't find him. ”

That was all the reporting.

Michael Gilford gestures to Mimi Azrael to back off and then starts bowing down with his butler and his men.

“Another explorer. Where did it come from? ”

“There's nothing new about the Underground Realm. We have to consider the number of cases. The possibilities of the Human Empire are the greatest, but the Kingdom of Eteria is also under consideration. Elves thirst for magic more than anyone else. ”

“Well, if you can find it, you might as well have a monster of the world's enemies. ”

Kim Sung-cheol hid in the dark and listened to their conversation.

There were two facts.

One is what the expedition is looking for in the ruins.

The other is that information about the Underground Realm is publicly known.

‘Looks like Deckard didn't find the existence of the Underground Realm on his own. ’

Rather, Deckard's information remained at a pace.

He didn't find the Underground Vehicle.

On the other hand, this expedition seems to know more.

They knew what was inside the dungeon and what the risks were.

Kim Sung-cheol seemed to know why Willie was reluctant to enter here.

He knew beforehand that the Abyssal abyss would appear here.

There is no other way to explain it.

Kim Sung-cheol left and walked back into the darkness of the dungeon.

He takes his own path through the dungeon from the entrance.

“Those homuncluses. I think it's artificially enhanced. ”

Bertelgia opens her mouth when she reaches a rare place.

“Really?"

Kim Sung-cheol also felt that the homuncles were different from the usual homuncluses, but he didn't care.

By his standards, homunculus is homunculus.

“But she's amazing. ”

Bertelkia opens her mouth again.

“I would have played a terrible prank on the Horunklaus if I could see them following me like that. ”

“Are you kidding me? ”

“Those homuncluses. You were wearing body armor, weren't you? It's not just to protect Horunklaus. It's probably their true purpose not to be able to see their own faces. ”

Although there are few in Kim Sung-cheol's time, it seems that the augmented homunculus was quite fashionable in Bertelgia's time.

The magical power to reduce the number of people is necessary and inevitable to convert human-like intelligence and liveable homuncles for combat or auxiliary use.

The problem is that the reinforcement procedure is so horrific that it distorts Homunklaus' appearance.

“There you have it. ”

Kim Sung-cheol has dealt with many wizards, but he has never seen anyone carrying a reinforced homunculus.

“Probably forbidden. That's a terrible way to be on the Prohibition List. ”

“ ……. ”

While quietly listening to Bertelkia's words, Kim Sung-cheol walked forward and found a red light shining beyond the darkness.

There is a pile of human corpses.

The red light was the light from one of the spheres' wands.

Kim Sung-cheol examined the corpses.

A year or two? Compared to the corpses of the Joynes, we're in good shape. ’

The bodies have been mummified as dead and remain alive for some time.

The cause of death appears to be suicide.

Some bodies were blue from the poison and others were stabbed in the neck with their swords.

Kim Sung-cheol found an old journal on the body of the most noble-looking man's wizard.

Most of the journals were corrupted by the mucus from the corpse and rendered unreadable, but the last page remained intact.

Kim Sung-cheol smelled a disgusting corpse and read the last page with his eyes.

[Day 14]

Everything is fine.

I look forward to the day when we will raise the tide for the Emperor.

[Day 15]

Wesley and Zahra, who had been in the right eye for a long time, asked me to perform a ritual.

The courageous idea of the Summoners to calm down in King Nahaq's throne room sometimes overwhelms me.

[Day 16]

Zahra disappears. Wesley leaves without permission to look for her.

I just pray to God it's not a big deal.

[Day 17]

[Day 18]

42325 54423 99832 31125 34238

88823 42321 11232 44235 19321

88768 11132 08323 13578 69180

That was it.

Bertelgia, reading the journal together right behind Kim Sung-cheol, leans over and asks.

“What's the last number? ”

“Random number.”

Kim Sung-cheol said so, and took out a glowing brochure from the soul warehouse.

“Random number?”

A book printed in the real world's gloss box.

There were numerous numbers and explanations in the old book.

A random number for a random broadcast and its decoding text.

Kim Sung-cheol received it directly from William Quinton Marlborough, Emperor of the Human Empire.

Before things get out of hand.

Kim Sung-cheol opened the book to find the appropriate random number and combined the descriptions described in the journal to decode the numbers.

The decoding was as follows:

[Bottom of 3rd Floor, Large Coexistence, Many Eyeless Nerds, Attacked, Desperate Situation, Family Greetings, Please.]

“What's it say? ”

Bertelkia looks over Kim Sung-cheol's shoulder.

Kim Sung-cheol closed the bookshelf and put it in the soul warehouse.

“Looks like there's something in this basement. I guess they call them Eyeless Goblins. ”

The corpses of Joyne are merely preludes.

Beyond that lies something even more bizarre and terrible.

Kim Sung-cheol dropped his journal and continued his search for the dungeon.

Later, he found a staircase going down to the second floor underground, and Bertelkia wrote the full path of Kim Sung-cheol on his page.

“Map complete! ”

Kim Sung-cheol went down a dark spiral staircase.

There are white bones of the Joys lying around the stairs.

A tightly closed Obsidian door stands in front of you at the end of the stairs.

The Eye of Truth reacts to the magic trapped in the door.

‘This is dangerous. ’

The entire dungeon is enchanted with destructive magic.

It is not a problem that can be solved with a hammer.

Kim Sung-cheol approached the door.

The glowing text immediately appeared in front of his eyes.

[Only Nahaq, a divine and great join, can enter this place.]

[Present Nahaq's Token.]

“What do I do? I don't think they're just gonna let me in. ”

Bertelkiah said in a worried voice, circling around Kim Sung-cheol.

Kim Sung-cheol looked around the door.

There is a small altar in front of the door with a small groove.

Kim Sung-cheol found a broken Obsidian fragment underneath the altar.

A part of the fragment that still holds the magical power still matches the hole in the altar.

Kim Sung-cheol faced the sculpture and groove as a test.

The magical power immediately envelops the piece and crumbles.

[Give proper token.]

Two eyes of a tight-like statue next to the door glow red.

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol stepped back.

“What do we do now? ”

As he follows, he stops at one point as he walks forward ignoring what Bertelgia said.

‘This is a good spot. ’

A common rock with no magical response.

Kim Sung-cheol took out an arm karaz and hit the bottom.

Every time the hammer strikes the ground, a thick rock shatters and shatters.

While the entire dungeon was shaking, hundreds of corpses appeared in front of Kim Sung-cheol.

After the unilateral massacre, Kim Sung-cheol resumed his work.

Immediately, a huge hole was drilled into the place where he was tapping.

Kim Sung-cheol jumped down the hole.

Bang!

Heavy landing.

Behind Kim Sung-cheol was the back of the obsidian door that was never opened.

“Bertelkia. Draw a map of the second floor from here. ”
