Main Character Hides His Strength

24. Those who swallowed Nahaq (2)

Bang, bang!

Like the first floor, Kim Sung-cheol went forward breaking down the wall.

However, unlike the first floor, there was one thing I saw every time I broke the wall.

A bone that appears to be animal or human.

A pile of bricks and plastered bricks form a pile of bones between the right wall and the wall.

Kim Sung-cheol felt a deep question when he came out with more than one or two of these things every time he broke them.

He pauses and looks carefully into the cracks in the wall.

Inside the wall, there were a lot of white bones.

Kim Sung-cheol grabbed a wall with his hand and lightly tore it off.

Then I found a backbone that had the original shape.

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol's pupils were constricted.

What was between the wall and the wall was a human-shaped backbone sandwiched between the walls.

It is not a joint.

Perhaps you were trapped between the walls alive when you built this dungeon and buried it there.

Not just one or two, but tens of thousands of people.

“I take it the Nahaq was quite the brute after all? ”

Kim Sung-cheol opened his mouth.

“According to legend, the Nahaq are known for being arrogant and cruel. Above all, there was no mercy in words to other races. Perhaps these corpses are enslaved. ”

Bertelkia said, circling the circular backbone.

“By the way, you're burying so many lives alive in the walls. You did an unthinkable thing. Those bird heads.”

“Why did you do this? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked.

A gentle note stands in his voice.

“Perhaps to gather their magical power? It feeds on the pain and grief of those who are slowly dying. ”

“I'd like to see Nahaq alive. ”

Kim Sung-cheol muttered, fixing and grabbing the hammer.

The task has been resumed.

The wall collapses and the white bones in it scatter to the ground.

Many times.

Kim Sung-cheol reached the end of the second floor.

Kim Sung-cheol sat down with a thick rock on his back and relaxed a little.

I tried like crazy, and I was hungry.

‘Shall we start eating? ’

But it's not a good place to eat.

Kim Sung-cheol doesn't eat anywhere.

He went back to the path he had made.

However, while walking along the road, Kim Sung-cheol saw a strange sight.

Something crouches on the dark side, picking up and eating the bones that have fallen to the ground.

Wazak

As she hears the sound of chewing bones come alive, she shrugs.

“Ugh... What is that? I want to get out of here now. ”

Kim Sung-cheol silently approached the mysterious weirdo.

The monster raises its head as Kim Sung-cheol approaches and screams sharply as if his eardrum was torn.

“Ki-----!!! ”

It sounds more like a machine than a man or beast.

Kim Sung-cheol noticed the sound, but the appearance of the monster.

Its appearance was similar to that of humans.

However, the skin was hideously pale white, and the facial head was so distorted that it could not be seen, and crucially there was nothing in place to have two eyes.

Rather, the arrangement of teeth to be called teeth was more terrible.

The creature's teeth protrude out of his gums, and some of them protrude through his lower lip.

“Hee...”

The unbelievably ugly figure knocks Bertelgia down, fainting.

Kim Sung-cheol caught Vertelgia, put it in his pocket, and stared at the monster.

“Piss off.”

But the monster does not go out.

Rather, I rushed to Kim Sung-cheol, spitting out the loud noise earlier.

Puck!

Kim Sung-cheol's hammer smashes the monster's bone pain and blows it to a distant place.

The smashed teeth splash across the floor and make a useless sound of purity.

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol stared at the other side of the darkness.

There are so many monsters here that they can't even fathom the numbers.

Quietly and discreetly.

Kim Sung-cheol pondered for a moment.

Kill all these monsters and go, or just walk away.

After a while, he cleared his posture and made a choice to leave.

It's because if you are hungry and encounter those disgusting monsters before a meal, your appetite may decrease.

He climbs up the hole he dug before, leaving behind the crowded geeks.

A few of the expeditioners were standing outside the hole.

When they saw Sung-cheol Kim, they were furious and asked.

“W-what? What the hell are you doing?”

Kim Sung-cheol stared at them one by one.

There are five.

Two wizards, three soldiers, all cut up.

I don't see Michael Gilford or Mimi Azrael's face.

Kim Sung-cheol pointed to the cloth attached to his coat.

“Room 34.”

“Issue 34..? What were you doing down there, anyway? ”

“The hole was pierced, so I went down for a while. Funny things are going around. ”

“Funny thing...? Nahaq Skeleton? ”

Kim Sung-cheol shook his head.

“There's a bunch of blind geeks running around looking like people, not people. That too in herds. ”

The expedition's face is severely distorted.

“You've seen the cave elves. ”

“The cave elves? ”

“A cave elf, to be exact. It was a tribe that was enslaved by the Nahaq. But since the demise of Nahaq, the tribe has now taken control of this dungeon. They are strong, tenacious and intelligent. It's very dangerous. ”

At that moment, a eerie scream echoes through the pit.

“Kiey------!"

A scream from a blind monster.

The expedition hears that sound and leaves in a hurry, his face white as a blank slate.

“L-let's go back quickly. Because we're investigating, and now we're all gonna die! ”

The expedition disappeared into the darkness of the Burinake dungeon.

Kim Sung-cheol provided a small service for them.

I plugged a hole in a large rock.

Maybe the blind goons will come out of the hole.

Kim Sung-cheol, who blocked his own entrance, followed the path he had made to the outside of the dungeon.

*

Today's lunch and dinner were fish.

Kim Sung-cheol jumped into the cold water with a harpoon.

There are dark, blurry underwater creatures swimming in the dark, dark waters.

A giant fish that lives in the frontier of the sea called the Great Margaery.

Size is the size of a human male.

One of the fish found Kim Sung-cheol and swiped his jaw and attacked.

Puck!

The harpoon pierces the fish's glabella.

Blood from the wound spreads like smoke around it.

The giant fish struggled a couple of times, but his fist got stuck in the head of the grass, and soon it sank.

Kim Sung-cheol came out of the water with his big fish in his arms.

Smells blood and swarms of sharks hover around you.

Kim Sung-cheol grabbed the mandarin fish's gill, pulled its head off and threw it to the sharks, then he only came out to the shore with his torso.

On the shore, there was already a big pot and a countertop made by Kim Sung-cheol.

“By the way, you're a pretty good cook. ”

Bertelgia, who can't eat, said in a loud rumble.

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol pulled out a sword from the Soul Bank.

It was a great sword with a blue light.

On the blade handles are beautifully embroidered lion symbols of the Human Empire.

An emperor's tribute to any knight of the Human Empire.

But for Kim Sung-cheol, the sword was only used for cooking.

The bluish blade plunges into the scales of the Maya Margaery, and quickly peels the scales, trembling and trembling.

Kim Sung-cheol, who had peeled off all the scales of the fish, left the fish for a while and headed to the boiling pot.

In the pot, the dried vegetables, fish, and mushrooms were boiling.

Kim Sung-cheol put soup on a small bowl and tasted it.

“Hmm."

It is adequate.

Kim Sung-cheol put a lump of fish on top of a plate, sliced it like paper, and sat in front of the pot.

Chopsticks appear in the Soul Warehouse.

Kim Sung-cheol picked a spot of fish with his chopsticks, dipped it slightly in boiling broth, and lifted it up and took it to his mouth.

The skin of the fish with the rich taste of broth melts away in your mouth.

[This dish scores... 63 points!]

The score came to my attention, but Kim Sung-cheol didn't care.

He silently continued to eat alone, gazing at the landscape of Mahjong.

When he was somewhat full, Kim Sung-cheol put dried noodles in broth to boil the fish no matter how much it tasted.

Kim Sung-cheol put cotton in the bowl, put the soup on the bowl, and breathed in the soup.

“Hmm."

Excellent taste.

I feel like my body and mind are filling up.

“Very well prepared. Really, every bite. ”

After the meal, Bertelkia grumbles as if she was waiting.

“Eat well. ”

Kim Sung-cheol grabbed the remaining mandarin tail and threw it toward the sea.

There was a big thunderstorm.

Kim Sung-cheol put out the fire on the counter and washed the pot in the sea water.

Cooking is fun, but dishes are always a hassle.

Kim Sung-cheol didn't like the dishes very much.

“I wish there was a dishwasher. ”

Kim Sung-cheol muttered while cleaning the pot and putting it in the soul storage.

“Hmph! No way! I've never put water in my hands before! ”

“I don't think that's a boast. ”

“If you want me to do the dishes for you, bring a homunculus or two. ”

“I don't have any hobbies with such noisy people. ”

“What about the cave elves? I thought you'd be quiet if you didn't scream. ”

“I don't know. Maybe that monster's better off in terms of innocence than Homunklaus. ”

Kim Sung-cheol suddenly remembered the female wizard who was carrying the five homuncles.

He held the title of commander of the expedition, but in reality, a Scarecrow.

The power seemed to be in the hands of Michael Gilford, the son of Willie Gilford.

‘That woman. My eyes were fierce.’

I haven't seen it yet, but Willie Gilford would be a court wizard if he gave me the expedition commander himself.

It is unusual for such a person to stand idly by while hearing insulting remarks from a Sapphire Sword Master.

No matter how special you are in the Ancient Kingdom.

Someday the problem seems like a fuzzy combination.

It doesn't matter to Kim Sung-cheol.

Kim Sung-cheol filled his stomach and went back to the dungeon.

However, the situation of the dungeon coming back changed a lot in many ways.

Blind monsters are everywhere.

“ ……. ”

Even though they were right in front of us, the goons didn't see Kim Sung-cheol.

It's because I don't have eyes.

Instead, the geeks identify objects by sound and smell.

“Knng, knng!"

You smell the creature's nostrils rumbling.

Kim Sung-cheol left them like a ghost and headed for the entrance of the second floor.

The rock remains where it was placed earlier.

That is, they did not escape through this hole.

Kim Sung-cheol immediately turned around and went down the stairs to the second floor.

There were a number of cave elves around the stairs.

Kim Sung-cheol passed silently through the monster and went down to the second floor.

Kim Sung-cheol, who went down to the second floor, found out where the cave elves came up to the first floor.

The unopened Obsidian door is wide open.

On the altar, Nahaq's sigil, with a circle, shines a dazzling light.

After Kim Sung-cheol took Nahaq's token from the altar, the Obsidian Gate was firmly closed.

Kim Sung-cheol felt one question while putting Nahaq's token in his pocket.

Who the hell opened this door? ’

Nothing is certain.

It was then.

A series of sharp screams echoes from above.
