Running Away From The Hero!

2. What is this? Scary. (7)

12 trials.

Hercules had 12 trials, right? I think it's a training cave made of 12 rooms, and I think the reason I chose the training ground as a cave was because I thought it was also done in a no-nonsense place! It is a training ground made with a strong feeling.

Of course it's not a big deal.

I worked hard based on my previous life and current experience.

Starting with the first room of arrows, the first five rooms recreated the cases that could happen on the battlefield, and then the next five rooms were in a form that made the senses dull and ordealing.

I tried it on my own, but the numbness in the ninth room was quite difficult.

I couldn't feel anything in the darkness, so I felt like I was a ghost after dying.

All sorts of hallucinatory magic, as well as cursing magic, made me unable to work, so just because I have magic doesn't mean I can stop it.

I used all kinds of paralysis, hallucinogens, and so on to prepare for those who would be stopped by magic!

Of course, it will be hard for kids on every difficulty level.

And less motivated.

That's why, to show the recognition of the instructor, the 11th room had a space to rest before entering the 12th room.

Room 12 is really dangerous.

Honestly, I didn't make it.

The 12th room is the work of graduates of all time. Make a toast for your successors from the very first disciple! I mean, the training ground that started with the most touching content, you guys are getting spoilt because of your damn students! It was corrupted into a malicious space filled with hearts.

That's why the abuse doesn't go away when you get hurt.

Well, in any case, there have been a lot of improvements, including eliminating their tactical laws and adding new traps over two or three generations.

Especially since two of the subordinates have even come to add a Summoning Wizard, saying they got their first paycheck.

Crazy bastards.

While training trainees or training soldiers or knights, the facilities that can combat demons are only here, even if it includes the entire organization, empire or continent!

That's why I was supposed to do it at least in the middle of next year...

The 1000 wanted to be strong, so he opened it specifically to be strong on his own.

Well, it's not that I'm annoyed.

… really!

By the way, we should probably put the others in tomorrow.

Good thing we're sharing, right? He says he's going through a lot of trouble, but we can't just leave the other kids here. Hmm... Good. It's nice to think about it.

At least it'll take us over a year to clear out there, so we won't be robbed in the meantime.

Isn't this perfect?

Even the last group of riders who were called the best in the organization took about a year to get through there, and even the number of people last year took more than their boat, and that's how long it took.

There's no way three people can get through all the trials this body has created so quickly!

Hahahaha! I'll protect my bottom! Come on, boys! I will show you hell!

... and I loved it so much. Oh, shit.

# 11 Their Reason: The Secret of Your Life in the Future (1)

The day after I cried out in pain. A new training awaits.

"… here?"

It exploded like that, but I was in so much pain that my body was perfectly fine.

No, when I woke up in the morning, I knew I was feeling refreshed.

Thanks to you, I had to attend today's training.

And in the warehouse, where we didn't even know where the new training area had arrived, it seemed like a good idea to not enter the cave that was located beyond the suspicious-looking old door.

"Speaking of which, I heard you visited me personally yesterday."

When 17 asked 1000, 1000 nodded slightly to confirm.

"What is this place?"

The head of issue 1000 tilted slightly. Soon, he sighed, smiling brightly.

"Number one, open the door."

"Huh? The door?"

I saw 1000 nodding my head and opened the door as 1000 sighed...

Pick!

"Huff?"

What! First line of fire from the start! No, before that!

"Hey, 1000. You knew about this?!"

"Yes, this is the place."

What are you smiling at? This was the moment when one of your motives was hit by an arrow and he didn't even know if he was going to scream! Listen to you!

"Hey, wait a minute. 17 asked, did I ask?"

"… are you a man?"

Damn it! It's a boy!

What era is this? A time when a sword, one of the most powerful creatures by the sword, was a woman!

Oh, but I have nothing to say.

Being openly, leading a woman is not tolerated by her own authority and her pride as a blacksmith...

"Huff... Got it. I'll take the lead, by the way, even in a place like this. There must be some kind of danger zone."

My pride has been feeding me, or rather, my food has been taken away, but I still have my pride. I have to throw it away quickly, but it doesn't go away well.

"Yes. Open the door and take a step forward."

Huh? One step. As far as I'm concerned?

"A silent arrow is fired from below."

Tak.

"Crazy?!"

At the same time your foot touches, you fall backwards and dodge the arrow as you hear it.

This was a close call!

"Why is there no sound when the crazy arrow is fired?! And you better start talking! Are you sure you want to die?"

At that moment, I bowed my head directly to the 1,000 blade that was flying towards my head. Crazy bitch!

Now you're just trying to kill me! What did I do wrong? Shit. Is that Bob? Will you take this opportunity to eliminate your opponent?

Bang, bang! Bang!

But shortly after the sound of something hitting the sword, something tapped my head.

Yeah, this. Arrows. You'd have a hole in your back of your head if you had stayed.

Silence again, by the way?

This is just a step away from the entrance.

But isn't it too quiet from the start? The arrow that flew when you first opened the door wasn't the only one that made a sound, was it?

"Hey, 1000. Tell me honestly, how many times have you been in there yesterday?"

"Roughly… 10 meters?"

Oh, nuts.

What the hell is an instructor doing, building this thing?

Or was it made by an organization? Isn't that right? No matter how many instructors you have, you wouldn't have created this difficulty from scratch, would you?

This is exactly why you can't have an evil gang! How are we going to get through a place where a woman who evaded the Imperial Mado bombing could only get 10 meters?

… but…

"Three more gates to go..."

Three months later, there are only three gates left. Shit. It works.

I wonder why.

In an invisible darkness, I leaned against the wall and thought about all the days until now, but I still didn't understand.

I spent almost a month in the room of the first arrow. A room that was almost 100 meters long was hell.

Arrows fly anywhere. Everywhere, of course. Above your head, below the ground. I feel like I've been hit by an arrow once, except for the main part of the arrow flying diagonally.

No, I don't think you're feeling well.

What's even more curious about it is that it doesn't get pierced by arrows.

Obviously, it is natural to penetrate the body if you think about the speed of arrows that are hard to avoid. However, when you get hit, you only penetrate the body with a very short arrowhead compared to the normal arrowhead. When you pull out an arrow, you only get a little blood.

Funnily enough, each of the arrows was covered in various kinds of poison.

It was really scary, and it was also the part that allowed us to know exactly who made this cave.

Despite being trained as a rogue organization in a lesser training camp, this evil was definitely the work of that evil instructor.

In other words, the poison used was truly varied.

He didn't even say these are dangerous poisons if he left them in the common paralytic poison for a long time.

But… a poison that promotes vomiting, diarrhea and other excretion activities!

This was not done by a man! Even demons don't do this. This was a trap filled with more evil instructors than demons!

No matter how much you shut up and look at it from out here, it's number 17, or 1000, which is cute if you keep your mouth shut.

No matter how beautiful a girl is, if she vomits or foods in the distance, she wakes up a little, or a lot!

No, I'm dangerous before that! Lots of it! 17 calls out a giant demon to build a wall of humans or demons and do things, and I have no choice but to concentrate, endure and retreat!

I almost had my pants on. I can't believe the Grand Duke's right hand is wearing pants!

I thought killing with immediate venom would be painless and not good!

If it hadn't been for a structure that wouldn't trigger the trap, I would have seriously accused the Empire of the Second Coming of the Evil God in the Legend.

Unlike me and 17, who went through all that trouble, 1000 had immunity to the poison of almost every arrow. And would it have been cautious?

At the point where the door to the second gate was visible, 1000 scratches on the arrow suddenly whitened his face and started vomiting.

And when 1000 saw the menu that he had eaten in the morning again with his own eyes, he had no choice but to fear that he might lose something that he really had to protect as a life, or more than a human being.

The ultimate poison that would allow even 1000 to die instantly or for human dignity!

I want to escape! But that demon's instructor won't let me escape.

Then there's only one way. You will have to go beyond your limits to get through the gate.

And as a result, we were able to push our limits.

At the end of the day, an arrow that almost flies into the bag says, "Is it really over? It made me think."

Unlike even silence, the sound of arrows flying from all over the place, and at the same time, the arrows flew silently in the corners, blinking in front of me.

Maybe it's because he's used to the silent arrow. Rather, you hear the sound of arrows flying, and the entire nerve is drawn towards you, almost struck by a silent arrow.

The moment I noticed the silent arrow, I felt like time had stopped, and all the magic that was present in this room was instinctive.

And I realized... This... was fucking money!

What is the density of this absurd magical power that feels in this space?

Numerous stones have been used in the firing apparatus where the arrows are fired.

I assumed the reason why the arrow flew silently, and the reason why the arrow at that speed didn't really die in my body was magic, but the moment I felt the magic of this space, I realized it was a massive place with more than I could ever imagine.

And that's the first gate!

What the hell is this place?

However, at the beginning of entering Gateway 2 and Gateway 3, the difficulty of the Gateway was lower than expected.

Honestly, the difficulty level of the gate itself was right compared to the room of arrows, which is the first gate, but the biggest difficulty of the first gate was because of those ruthless poisons that removed dignity as a human being, and the next gates were not used to penetrate it.

It only took me a full hour to get through Iron Gateway, Earth Gateway, Trap Gateway, and Horse Gateway.

Compared to a month's time spent at the Gateway of the First Arrow, it was going through the Gateway very quickly.

Especially since the last Horse Gateway was the fifth Gateway, considering the previous Mado Cannon, it couldn't understand why it wasn't so difficult.

But it was as soon as I entered Gateway 6 that I realized.

Of course. He was the instructor, but he was careless!

"I can't get my magic together."

With a hissing sound, 17 muttered in an annoying tone.

Her flashy lips are dripping with a red bloodstain.

After Gateway 1, she had a habit of breaking her lips with every buildup of stress.

"I... can't see very well there."

The 1000 was circling around too much.

Through the gateway so far, she has been very helpful to her instincts.

It's not the five senses, it's her instinct that detects danger on her own. It's her sixth sense.

But the black mist in front of them is a space that is roughly visible only to those around us.

I've learned a trick at Gateway 1 to detect the surroundings with magical powers, but I'm stuck in that black fog.

That black mist is an artificial mist made of magic. The detection of magical power is only blocked without penetrating the black mist in front of you.

Even as in 17, the room itself does not have enough magical power.

You should be able to use your own magical power purely. However, you used a considerable amount of magical power at the previous Gateway, Mado Gateway, which is why it lacks its magical power.

Although the Gateway of Mado was easier than the previous experience, it was more effective than any other Gateway in terms of the consumption of magical power.

I feel stuck in the wall again.

How did the instructor get us through this room?!

"Why don't we just go out of the room and recover?"

"Oh…"

"Is that so?"

And that day, 10 minutes later,

The Fog Gateway has been cleared.
