1.

It's been a week since I got rid of the mountain chasers.

We've finally arrived at the Goblins' hometown.

[Designated tribe returning home.]

[Quest Completed!]

[You have freed the tribe from Slimepolis safely.]

[Your faction points will be awarded as reward for completing the quest….]

As a reward for the 32nd floor main quest, you scored quite a few points.

I have struggled, as I have throughout this hierarchy, with only 100 points left of that faction.

‘I have a place to stay. ’

After being so anxious, I looked at the Goblins' hometown.

Guru.

The Goblin hometown that they missed so much... was a little bad.

To be honest, it was close to ruins.

- Well, of course.

The messenger shrugs.

- If you can't reach a human, the town is covered in bushes in no time. My hometown was originally swept away by Black Road bandits, so I went there later and it became a jungle.

Well, did you have a past like that? ’

I'm a man with a lot of history. If I write my diary as a novel, it will be one copy, 39 copies, 22 copies, 13 copies of foreign currency.

‘I feel bad because the odd numbers are specific.... ’

- Even after he died, he became a ghost, and now he plays three parts in the eulogy. After you're dead, I plan to possess the other one and continue my second book of civil war.

Finish it! ’

We looked back at the old hometown. Weeds and weeds. Green plants were occupying the trough.

The trail of someone who lived here has already been hidden, and just a long time ago, a moss was planted by Goblins as evidence of time and compromise.

- Oh, God.

Among them, there was an oddly familiar statue. I was not familiar with the sculpture because I had seen it, but the topic the sculpture expressed was familiar to me.

White Marble. Carefully carved Mane, Big Tooth...

- They even carved you up?

It was me.

- He's a white lion. He got marble and made it. Hey, I'm serious. Extreme affection.

‘Yes.'

I looked around slowly. What's so great about this green jungle? Goblins smile and unwrap their bags. Bam! Bam! There was also a Goblin slashing at the trees with a hammer brought from Slimepolis. I want to find a place to live quickly.

I'm not their owner. ’

The boundaries of owners and friends. I think there are other people who are closest to the farthest person, their parents among them.

Parents may act as owners or become friends, but it is probably not their children's choice first, but their own.

‘I have to tell you before I leave this stage. ’

That night.

I used my remaining 100 faction points to purchase an item.

[Buy ‘Appear in Dream’.]

[100 Faction Points will be consumed!]

[Your available faction points are currently 0 points.]

[All other faction points are currently invested and unavailable…….]

I entered Gorge's dream.

“What's up, kid? It's been a long time."

Oh, the Devil!

There was a fervent vision.

“Huh. If you like it that much, I'd be a little shy... How many days have you been lonely? I'm sorry I didn't look into your heart. ”

- If you're really sorry, don't even think about it!

Gorge jumps.

- Last time, I thought I was gonna die fighting snails!

“Aigoo, you're not dead. I didn't want him to die. Anything that doesn't touch you will eventually lead to your bully. Gorké, you must live the life of George, not the world. ”

- Man, you still got a dirty mouth. How could you even say the same thing? Ker.I wish I could use a cleaner word, God or the Devil... When I'm a lion, I just want to look cool and appear in my dreams...

Gorke mutters. The face of a broken illusion. I didn't deny his words, but I confronted him.

“Aha. That's it! ”

- Glug?

“The Chong Dynasty has such sweet fantasies. The illusion that I am your Savior, that I am awesome, and that I am perfect and take care of you. But the real me is a little bit as nasty as you say. ”

- A little...?

Gorge expressions philosophically at the moment. Perhaps the first philosopher in the history of the stipulated tribe was born, but I am alive. He said, "Everything is made of Ketug! ’Only the next generation of students will suffer.

“You are the only one who knows my true form. I'm not the god you think I am. He is merely a facilitator and a adviser. Gorké, you have a duty to tell the truth to your family, relatives and countrymen. ”

- I don't want to. You look annoyed!

“The last time I saw you fight, your error was immature. Today, let's practice pulmonary tubing for just one year, no more or less in our dreams. ”

Gorke, I love the truth! Gorke, tell the truth!

Gorge burns with passion. Looking good.

- Ha, but I'm curious.

"Hmm?"

- If it's not God, why is Ketugger taking care of us? Why do you care about us? Why did you save us from the original disaster and rescue us from the snails' rule? I don't know why Ketugger does it.

“First of all, you're cute and cute.... ”

Are your eyes closed?

Son of a bitch.

“Actually, I'm not so different from you guys. He's no different. But if there's a reason I'm good to you... you're a little bit like me. ”

Strange. Ketugger doesn't resemble us at all.

“It's not about appearances. ”

I scratched my head.

“I like that people look like themselves. I see me in your image. Look at my greed in your greed, look at my position in your position. He discovers himself. ”

- Gor...?

“If I care about you, it's because I care about myself. ”

I stroked Gorge's head.

“But if you want to serve me, think of me as a friend, not a god. I'd rather be your friendship than your idol. Trust is better than faith. ”

- Friendship over idol, trust over faith....

“Yes. I'm just a friend who stays with you sometimes. Wouldn't it be cooler to say we were friends with God than to say we were loved by God? ”

Gorge stares up at me dazed.

[Signs of change in the faith of the designated tribe!]

[Raw Religion 'White Lion Faith’ increases the chance of gaining a new doctrine.]

I smiled.

"Do it well. I have to stay away from you for a while. You teach the others to come. Let me know if I want to be your friend. ”

- Are you leaving?

“Come on. I got you to the Scrooge. I did my job. The next time I come here and I get it from the Sanwa Nation, I'll be angry. ”

I broke Gorge's balls with both my hands. Glug, glug, a funny sound comes from Gorge's mouth.

“I want you to teach the other kids how to come and show them who I really am. Oh, I forgot to tell you. ”

“Last fight, well done. It was pretty cool.”

I tapped Gorge on the shoulder.

“Live hard. ”

Gorge opens his mouth to say something. But I left my dream like a knife. When the farewell is long, the sadness will be longer, so it was good to leave as if we were meeting again tomorrow.

[Item will be retired.]

The dream is over.

As soon as I got up, I leapt out of the hole. It was the middle of the night. The Goblins have been on their way home for weeks, exhausted.

No child should have come after me.

"Hmm."

Desperately following me, I detected one move.

"Gorké."

I thought you said the Devil was in love.

‘I was just treating her deliberately... ’

I felt the gravity of the relationship between people and people, and I accelerated a little more. Gorge was relentless, but he couldn't beat my speed. Our gap is getting further and further apart.

I wonder how long he's been out in the woods.

Eventually, the streak breaks.

‘Here.’

I groan, spilling the lion's mane to my side.

‘The other hunters are probably thinking about it by now. ’

- Problems?

"Yes, the Inquisitor showed me the crazy thing about staying onstage. And that's how I ate the Great Tower of Races. I mean, what's the point of not getting out and squirming as much as possible?]. ’

A so-called fight.

‘The problem is, only a heretic would do such a crazy thing. ’

Hundreds of years of this?

That hundreds of years could be a thousand.

Only 130% pure psychopath interrogators can do this. ’

Moreover, the Inquisitor has been eliminated from this stage.

We couldn't stop the slaves from escaping.

‘Everyone will eventually have to give up and declare [stage clear]. The only reason you're squirming right now is because if you declare it done first, you're going to lose money. ’

- Not really.

The messenger nods.

- Well, what are you gonna do?

They said, "Well, at this point, people have to come out and cut the first blow, even if they lose first. ’

Far enough away from the pit, I muttered to myself.

‘Declare Stage Cleared. ’

Shhh!

White light enveloped my whole body.

[Stage cleared!]

[32nd Floor Stage cleared.]

[Compensation settlement takes place after entering level 33.]

[Chain Tier in Progress - You will be forced to transfer to 33rd Floor!]

2.

The next moment, I was standing in a white space.

Waiting room for a short stay before moving onto stage 33.

There was a hunter who arrived earlier than I had declared [Stage Cleared].

“Aha. You made it! ”

Inquisitor.

The only one who failed to complete the quest, and as a result, a colleague who failed to complete the stage waves his hand.

“I've been waiting! Four Kings!”

"......."

“With the exception of Slimepolis, the Sanwa Empire is still intact, but it seems that if the quest fails, 'I’ will be disqualified automatically. What a shame!”

“Ha.”

I sighed.

"...... I struggled with you on this stage. No, considering the overwhelming proportion of people who suffer because of you. So did the Sormwyn Institute. ”

“Huh? I seem to have been quite calm at the Sormwyn Academy. ”

“You may be, but not in my view... ”

The image of a heretic interrogator whose self was eaten by a goldfish spirit and laughed bitterly, is still clearly embedded in my brain. Impact was amazing.

“Mmm-hmm. Maybe I misremembered it because it was so long ago. ”

The Inquisitor is backed up. His immature blonde hair grows smaller and smaller.

“I've been busy for 200 years. I've done my best! I assure you, even if I get to the top of the tower, I won't be able to make more of an effort than when I built the Slime Empire. Do you understand? Four Kings. I have shown you all my abilities! ”

"......."

“And yet I was defeated by you. ”

“I didn't lose. ”

I told you.

“We've all lost. ”

“It's the same!”

The Inquisitor shakes his head. It was resolved.

“From 1st to 7th place, you are the only one who united your colleagues. Dare I say, less than a minute ago, you'd be right! I don't have the guts to evaluate myself. ”

The Inquisitor smiled brightly.

“This is as far as I go! My judgment is less than yours. My ethics are less than yours. My competence did not overcome your competence! I'm relatively incompetent than you. ”

"......."

“The dictatorship of the incompetent begets destruction. The actions of the incompetent lead to destruction. I don't want to end up pressing the button of destruction and destruction! Appropriately, it is preferable to entrust judgment and action to someone more competent than me. ”

“What are you talking about? ”

“Simple logic. Four Kings.”

The Inquisitor smiles.

“From now on, I will serve you as my master. ”
