The Tutorial Is Too Hard

[The 61st floor stage begins.]

Description: Challengers, challengers who want to take a short break and leave the journey again.

Here's a two-way street.

One is the highway that you have to walk on a burning desert, and the other is the highway that you have to climb a snowstorm mountain.

Both roads are filled with dangerous enemies and obstacles.

Conquer both paths and reunite with your colleagues at the end.

-Clear conditions

Conquer the first hurricane path.

Conquer the second hurricane path.

?

Two portals appear with the message.

Two portals engraved with symbols of fire and ice, respectively.

Dividing 50 parties into two, conquering both highways beyond the portal would be a tactical approach to the 61st floor stage.

And finally, at the end of the highway, the two-way party will be reunited, and we'll have to drop either side to clear the 61st floor.

If the description I've heard from Kirikiri is correct, it's probably true.

[Which way are you going?]

“Left.”

I chose a portal engraved with the symbol of fire.

I think I'm more used to this side than ice.

You summon the frog before it passes through the portal.

“Queek!”

“I'm sorry, I have to go back inside. There's gonna be a lot of temperature changes out there. ”

“Queek!”

The frog regretted it, but it did not refuse me.

Changes in temperature are fatal to amphibians, frogs.

Of course, frogs are amphibians, and the trunk looks like a mammal for dogs, but anyway.

You recall the frog and climb up to the portal.

After a while, I was standing in an open, not enclosed space.

“Nice of you to call it a reverse. ”

[Yes.]

The place I summoned was in the middle of a crowded desert.

I thought I was better at summoning frogs because of the humidity problem than the temperature problem.

[You have chosen the first highway.]

Description: Challengers who have chosen the first path of persecution, your journey will be difficult.

During the day, you'll have to walk through the burning desert of Eagle Eagle, and at night, you'll have to sleep in hiding from the burning wind.

At the end of that journey, you must defeat one of the two rulers who rule this planet, the Volcano Ruler.

There are easier ways to travel to the ruler of the volcano.

You can weaken the ruler of a volcano by assigning an ally to the ruler of Sulsan, another ruler of the planet.

The more colleagues you devote, the weaker the ruler of the volcano will be.

As the ruler of the volcano weakens, his strength and number of clans, and lastly, the Great Desert climate is moderated.

-Clear conditions for the first highway

Through the Great Desert.

Climb to the top of the Conversation Mountain.

Kill the Master of the Conversation Mountain.

All you have to do is get across the desert to the volcano, capture and kill the master of that volcano.

It was a simple stage.

While it was written that I did not speak to my colleague in the middle, it was not an option for me to make.

“Okay, let's go first. ”

See if you can't clear it on your own, just like Kirikiri said.

It's 50 people, but it's hard to proceed without sacrifices.

That's how I organized my thoughts and started walking forward.

I felt like stepping on fine sand in the desert.

I liked the dry climate without moisture.

But the sandy wind covered all those conditions.

The sand on my face quickly offended me by the gaps between my shoes and my clothes.

“52909;!"

That's not what I said.

I turned around and there was a lizard staring at me.

I was standing up to my knees, looking at me like I was walking on my hind legs.

This is not a good attitude for hunting food.

First of all, you're telling me where you are.

I felt like I was trespassing on that lizard's territory rather than that lizard trying to hunt me down.

I think the threatened lizard is threatening me with a loud, inflated voice.

He doesn't have to kill the lizard, so he tries to get past it.

Until the lizard spits out the big fire.

“Cough!”

A drunken man howls, avoiding the puff of fire.

It sounds dirty and funny, but its power is not funny at all.

In the middle of the hot desert, you can still feel the heat of the flame that the lizard vomited.

It was amazing.

“Could it be a dragon breed? ”

[Of course not. That's just a lizard.]

My father and my wife were in a hurry.

The lizard saw me dodging the ball of fire and was groaning at his neck.

It looks like it will throw up once more.

Before that, I approached the lizard and grabbed its neck.

The lizard caught in my hand went crazy.

Although the legs were short and did not touch my hand or body holding the back of my neck, the lizard struggled with all his might.

I had no choice but to throw away the lizard that was provoking me.

As soon as the lizard had its tail cut off, it tried to rush towards me.

Exactly.

I flicked my finger.

A fire broke out inside the lizard.

The lizard shoots flames out of its eyes and mouth and dies.

Even the lizard spewing fire out of his mouth died very clean and quickly, knowing what he had to do to get his brain cooked.

“Shit, there's blood. ”

The severed lizard's tail is still ferocious.

Spraying blood around.

There was not a drop of blood on my clothes.

[What's with all the blood?]

Yeah, but...

I felt bad that it wasn't the blood of the enemies, but the unwanted blood.

I never got over the question.

You continue walking behind the corpse of the lizard.

I walked and talked to my father and wife.

“Have you ever heard of a lizard that radiates Fire Bress in a crisis? ”

[Of course not.]

Maybe that's the real Dragon Sub-species.

Or maybe it's Hatchling.

The master of the volcano I'm looking for is actually a dragon, but maybe I killed the dragon cub from the start?

Something about the storyline made sense

[Absolutely not. That's just a lizard.]

“But you were breathing fire, with your mouth. ”

[Maybe it's a strange lizard. Well, it's not a dragon. How can a lizard without a single handful of magic be a baby dragon or a child?]

It was.

It was a strange lizard after all.

Maybe it's a local trait here.

Volcanoes in the desert, and fire-breathing lizards.

Every theme in the area seemed to be adapted to fire and heat.

It was the second question.

I just violated the lizard's dominance and set fire to its body.

How did you do that?

Thinking about it, when I first exercised my dominance, it was a period when I did not know much about spirituality.

I just used it somehow.

At that time, I thought that the power to exert power over others stems from the nucleus of the source given by the penitent god.

But now that I've dealt with both the mystical and the origins, I know that's not the case.

If a myth is the dominant force of another person, if it violates the frame, then the source was the force that forced me to break my own frame.

So it doesn't make sense that the source of the power set fire to the lizard's body.

Most of all, I don't have the myth or the origin right now.

[Don't you have faith somewhere new that you don't know?]

“Faith?”

[In your hometown, or the people you met the other day.]

The couple asked if there was any faith in me between Earth and other challengers in the tutorial.

I had a point, but I didn't think so.

Among the challengers, my image is like a vague fear.

Even the image was fading with Kim Min-hyuk's work.

I saw that it was not enough for me to have faith.

The same is true of Earth.

I don't know how anyone sees me outside the challenge on Hell difficulty.

I wanted to complete the tutorial and worship the rankers on Normal difficulty who are out there fighting hard, but they won't have faith in me.

[How is the warrior?]

Serene Ceresia asks.

“Huh? Me? ”

[No.]

I thought you were asking me what I thought of this problem, but you're not.

[You are a warrior. You believe in yourself.]

“Oh, yeah. ”

[The fanatics.]

“ ……. ”

[It's more like an obsession. He has a belief that he can do it, not that he can do it. That's not a bad thing. But when you can't do something, you don't seem to deny that instead of feeling sad or disappointed, you can't do it.]

There's no way you won't make it.

Because I have to.

Perhaps that obsession can be a faith beyond the faith I send to myself.

That's what Ceresia meant.

Ceresia tries to convey the meaning of the word too directly.

It's not bad, but sometimes my stomach hurts.

[Sorry.]

It was a voice that was not sorry at all.

I asked my father and wife.

“What do you think? ”

The couple remained silent for a moment and replied:

[I can't tell you that part.]

I was constrained.

I don't know if it's a systemic constraint or a perforated god constraint.

Thanks to this, Ceresia's hypothesis has become more reliable.

This was a pretty important issue.

If what Cecilia says is true, then we can self-generate without anyone else.

“Well, let's take it slow. ”

If you think back to the first time I exercised my dominance and observe the changes that will appear over and over again, you will soon know.

After finishing my thought, I decided to leave again.

You spread the wings of the Tallaria and soar.

I didn't want to walk quietly because of the annoying sandstorm.

As I flew up into the sky, the wind seemed to mix a little less sand.

The front is blocked by magic, and the amount of sand that sticks to your body is significantly reduced.

There was one more good thing about starting the flight.

Far away, the city of the desert begins to appear.

As the instructions on where to go were not in the message, I thought I could gather information from that city.

After flying for such a long time, I was soon able to arrive in front of the city.

I landed nearby and walked to the city gate.

Walking slowly, the city fades.

Soon the city disappeared without a trace, and only the desert of fine sand remained.

“... Is this a mirage? ”

[Huh… I guess so.]

* * *

“It's not a mirage. Absolutely not.”

Once or twice, the city disappears before my eyes. After going through it ten times, I'm starting to get angry.

I know that miraculous is a phenomenon in which light is deflected by an unstable atmosphere.

Accordingly, it is a phenomenon in which a shape is seen at a location other than the actual position.

The problem is that I didn't see it wrong.

I was confident and approached the place through a sense of sight as well as a vision.

Nevertheless, the city disappeared as soon as I approached it.

I had to endure the boiling anger that seemed to tease me.

“It's not a mirage. Someone's messing with me. ”

[Oh my, this is going to happen again.]
