Taming Master

< Lethe of 1000 Ignorance (3) >

The curse of forgetting in a field debuff form, which takes a moment to enter the river rete of forgetfulness.

This‘ curse of forgetfulness’ was a powerful debuff that Ian had never seen before.

- The curse of forgetfulness descends on the whole body.

-All intermediate experiences will be temporarily reset.

- All party members' transcendent levels will be adjusted to 1.

-All combat stats are significantly reduced.

- You cannot gain XP at all while under the 'Curse of Forgetting'.

…… shorthand…….

Normally, no matter how powerful the debuff was, there was only so much as a certain stat down.

If the field debuff was this level, and not an active buffer, then Ian had never even heard of it.

‘No, this ignorant curse...! ’

But unlike Ian, the discipline was frightening. The expression on the guild members was relaxed.

They were already accustomed to this curse of forgetting.

“Hehe, what a surprise. ”

“You don't look surprised. What a crazy curse... ”

“But you don't have to worry too much. ”

“Yes?”

“Everyone is equal here in the river of forgetfulness. ”

“Equality for all……. ”

“All the monsters in the river. And all the monsters in the Ghost Tower we're about to attack. In the curse of forgetfulness, there is no exception. ”

“Aha...? ”

Originally, within Kailan's worldview, the River Rette was a very frightening place.

He had a setting that when he fell into the river of forgetfulness, he lost all his memories and drifted in the river.

Many monsters and NPCs floating in the river were trapped in the river according to its settings.

However, there was also an exception to that setting, which was the ones with high 'qualifications'.

A person who is more than a ‘middleman' who can step on the erebosses without actually being a 'dead person’.

They will temporarily lose all their EXP if they are cursed with forgetfulness, but they will not lose their actual memories.

Of course, it is impossible for a 'user’ to lose his memory, whether he is intermediate or not.

But there was actually no need to think about it.

Reaching Rette was impossible in the first place without the threat of the middleman.

‘Entering Erebos 3 from the Underworld Inspector is completely impossible. ’

As a result, Ian organized these settings in his head and began to sparkle.

The worldview of the system was certainly as unique and interesting as the other middlemen.

“This is fun. ”

“Definitely a fun field. ”

“Hehe, inside this Maw of Oblivion, there is a place called the Ghost Tower, right? ”

“That's right.”

“Let's go inside. ”

“Even Ian, you must be very nervous. ”

“You must be very hard. ”

“That's right.”

Ian tilts his head as he listens to the arcane.

Of course, I expected it to be a difficult dungeon before coming, but now I have questions about the 'curse of forgetting'.

“If all monsters are level 1 transcendent... I think it would be easier……. ”

In fact, for Ian, who had been holding monsters higher than 100 levels since the transcendental 80s, the level had become equal, meaning that the difficulty had fallen.

However, Ian's question was immediately solved by Oliver beside him.

“All transcendent levels are considered to be level 1... ”

“But?”

“I think it's a level scam no matter what. ”

“ ……? ”

“A first-level stat is like a minimum level of 30 to 50. ”

Ian's eyes widened when he heard Oliver's story.

The difficulty question was cleared, but I was forced to panic again in a different sense.

‘I told you Oliver talked conservatively, I'm not exaggerating…. ’

As he said, if the monsters' stats were transcended by 30 to 50 levels, it would be impossible to deal with Ian's stats on the first level.

But after a little more thought, Ian realized what he had missed.

‘Wait. Equipment……! You had equipment, right?'

Despite the level being reset, he remembered that his equipment with a level limit of 80-90 and above was still worn.

After opening the information window, Ian had to nod.

‘It's a different story. ’

Combined with all the options of high-level tier equipment, a stat cover of 20 to 30 levels was not enough to fight monsters with a transcendent level of 1.

‘As expected…… LB couldn't have balanced it. ’

Of course, it was impossible to change or put on equipment with high level restrictions, but the equipment you put on before you were cursed was still a working system.

In doing so, Ian understood all the information and began to move forward with the rest of the Valler guild.

“No more trials, one queue at a time. ”

With Ian's defeat, Arkane replied with a bloody smile.

“Please, I hope so. ”

* * *

Baloch Khrr of Ancient Destruction, Ian's first new Horseman after finishing all the dimensional war content.

The transcendence level of the reincarnated Kr started from 1, but it was only a few days ago.

Since Ian's bus has been crashing for days at a hunting ground with over 100 transcendent levels, the transcendent level has already surpassed 60.

A typical middle-class person (?) It would have taken months to get to level 60, but you can't think of Ian as that standard.

The hunting ground itself differs from the rate at which it was originally hunted, so this was a natural outcome.

Nevertheless, Ian has yet to ascertain the true nature of Kr.

- Khh...! Destroy them all!

I just keep repeating the bluffing lines.

With Kr's combat strength still around level 60, Ian can't perform properly in the hunting grounds.

But at this moment, Ian was very excited to try Krur for the first time in the field.

‘In the abyss of forgetfulness, the story is a little different so far. ’

If they were all in the Maw of Equal Oblivion at the first level of transcendence, Kr, who was only in the 60th generation of transcendence, would be able to wield enough power.

Of course, the equipment level was slightly lower than the other summoners in the '90s, but it was not to a critical level.

Are we finally able to determine the significance of the ancient Baloch? ’

So Ian deliberately put Khrr at the forefront and started to move ahead.

I'm going to fight the monsters in the Maw first.

However, despite the appearance of the monsters, Ian could not easily see Kr's fighting power.

- The Ancient Eradication of Destruction, the unique ability of "Khr". Destruction ray triggered.

- You have successfully defeated the Abyssal Monster "Kurta"!

- You have successfully defeated the Abyssal Monster "Kurta"!

…… shorthand…….

Monsters at the Abyssal Entrance were literally Superior Level 1 monsters, so if Khr's rays of destruction were triggered, they would still pick up and die.

- Khh...! I am strong!

Only the overwhelming confidence of a useless Kr to amplify it even more.

Now admit it, master!

“Phew... Shut up. ”

And so, while Ian and Khrr are on the battlefield, Ian's group has just arrived to the depths of the abyss.

In the dark abyss, a glowing, dark-borate gate enters Ian's view.

“Should we go in there? ”

Ian asks, Arcane nods and answers.

“Yes, Ian. That's the door to forgetfulness. ”

“A door of forgetfulness……. ”

“Once you're in there, that's when it all starts. ”

“I'm excited.”

“Now, this way……. ”

Once the gate of forgetfulness is in sight, Arcane begins to take the lead again, and after that, the expedition of the guild catches up with him in a daze.

Ian and Hun were also naturally melted into the guild's camp some time ago.

“Bro, when the Black Wizard equipment comes out, it's all mine. You know?”

Looking at Hun, who was filled with anticipation, Ian smiled and replied.

“I'll give you everything I eat, don't worry. ”

He knew why Hun was so excited.

"Huhu, the name of the spirit..." Hun looks forward to it. ’

Wand of the Ancient Ghost, a device that recently came into the community and shocked numerous Black Mage users.

I had never even guessed the field where it was going to drop, as I had reasonably expected that this Ghost Tower might be the place to be obtained.

So, Ian and Hun step on the door of forgetfulness in different purposes and expectations.

Two new brothers began to be drawn into the deep darkness in an instant.

* * *

“Good. That should be enough to prepare you. ”

“Yes, Master. If we can make it over the wall this time, we should be able to make it to the top floor unstoppable. ”

“Of course. There's only eight floors of gate left, so you can get to the 10th floor at once. ”

“This time, please...! ”

Gabriel, the guild master of Gesto, and 30 elite guild members, including Srikes.

The oncoming members of the Gesto Guild are now moving west along the Rette River.

“Threekes. You're sure there's a sealed 'Spirit Boat’ on the 10th floor?" ”

“Yes, Master. Unless the quest window is lying...... it must be true. ”

The Baller Guild and Gesto Guild had no information about each other, but in fact, the two guilds have been alternately raiding the Ghost Tower.

However, after one unsuccessful attack on the Ghost Tower, it was impossible to enter the tower for 24 hours, so it has never been encountered by two guilds.

The guild that even tried to attack the Ghost Tower more times than the Baller Guild was the Gesto Guild.

They were the first to find this Ghost Tower. It is natural that the Baller Guild would not know about it, but the Gesto Guild was also the one with the most information about the Ghost Tower.

“All right, boys. You have 10 minutes from now. Before entering the abyss of forgetfulness, begin your final checks."

Carefully arriving at the western end of Rette, the members of the Gabriel and Gesto Guild begin their final inspection in front of the Maw of Oblivion.

Since they were elite members who had been deployed several times to attack the Tower of Ghosts, each seemed to know exactly what to do.

And Gabriel's eyes, which were looking around those guild members, were filled with confidence.

‘For sure this time. The guild that crosses Rette first...... will definitely become us. ’

After a quick check of his condition, Gabriel fixes his gaze toward the deep abyss.

And that's the moment.

“ ……! ”

The two pupils of Gabriel's discovery begin to dilate slowly.

‘What is it? It can't be...? ’

In the corner of the Abyssal River, where no one thought there was anyone, a strange shadow slowly appeared.
