The Tutorial Is Too Hard

The gate has been created, but it is now silent.

Over time, the number of monsters that are created in the subspace of that gate will jump out when they reach a certain number or so.

Until then, if no one finds this gate, the nearby villages will suffer heavy damage.

In fact, it may not be much different if I discover it in advance.

The villagers entered this subspace, killing all the monsters that were created inside, and then wondering if they could break the subspace core and close the gates.

You confirm the creation of the gate and return to the dungeon.

Outside the dungeon, there was a group of people.

You appear to be soldiers, waiting nearby, without even entering the dungeon.

You ignore them and enter the dungeon.

On every street in the dungeon, you encounter your minions.

There was a servant who greeted me, and there was a man who barked at me to see if I was losing intelligence.

You cross the maze of the twisted dungeon and head for the deepest part of the dungeon.

To the last room with the extractor.

When I arrived in the last room, I heard a conversation.

One of the two voices I was talking to was very familiar to my ears, but the other one was the first voice I had heard.

“Who's there?”

I went into the room and asked Hotch.

“Daddy's here! ”

“Oh, there you are. ”

용용이와 Hoci welcomed me.

Holding the dragon running at me, I pointed to the stranger's jaw in the last room.

“Ah, this guy was... a nobleman, anyway, in the kingdom near the dungeon. ”

That was a bummer.

* * *

The soldiers I saw outside the dungeon were noble soldiers who came to the last room.

The nobleman talks to Hotch for a long time, then politely greets him and leaves the last room.

Seeing the nobleman walking through the tunnels of the dungeon along the monster attached to the guide station, I thought of many things.

“When did he find out again? ”

I asked Hotch to explain.

Hotch said it started with capturing the noble soldier who accidentally entered the dungeon.

Since then, they have shared and traded information with each other appropriately.

“This one's a little big. The Kingdom is preparing for a massive deployment soon. It'll be hard to stop, but it'll be easier if you just hand over the case. Knowing the air raid in advance will increase your chances of stopping it. ”

Oh, he was a useful man.

“What's he got to do with you? ”

I shrug my head when asked.

“Well, it's diverse. You can take away what you want from the goods, or you can give away what you want from the captives. Gives you reasonable money, releases monsters in your opponent's territory. ”

From what I hear, Hotch was just as useful as that guy.

You've been doing so much for less than a month.

Someone's been running a dungeon for about a decade.

Very vocational, vocational.

“What are you jealous of? Do you want to? Do you want me to put it in now? ”

Let's not talk.

What am I supposed to say?

The confusion I felt now was not because of childish jealousy.

It was annoying, frustrating, and pathetic.

“There's got to be one on Earth. ”

And he won't be so stupid or so pathetic.

Rather a clever one.

No matter what he sold for eternity, he had no intention of reprimanding his actions.

I was too selfish to discuss others' morality.

Nevertheless, a sigh came out of my mouth.

“How many are there? ”

I hope it's not too much.

That's all I wanted from the outside world.

* * *

“No?”

“Yes.”

Kirikiri's answer was surprising.

Unbelievable.

“It's true. What you saw on the 89th floor was the source extraction. But no god in the Pantheon, including the vaccine, is so sourced. ”

I thought, of course, that the gods of the vaccine would extract their roots, as they did on stage on the 89th floor.

Of course I do.

I thought that gods who were not interested in anything but their identity and strength would naturally scrape together the roots.

But I was quite surprised to hear from Kirikiri that it wasn't.

“There's a simple reason. Planets extracted from more than a few sources will collapse rapidly over time. You've heard this before, right? ”

There was.

that the land from which the origin disappeared remains ruined and cannot be rebuilt.

It was not directly confirmed but could be expected indirectly as it came through the stage associated with the origin.

“The power to extract a planet's source is significant, yes, but not enough to destroy one planet's future. ”

But if the future of any planet dies, the gods will have no harm.

Then there's no reason to stay away.

“It's much more efficient to establish religion on that land and gain faith in the long run. ”

Ah, efficiency.

If so, I could understand.

“What is the difference between extraction of origin and religious belief? ”

In my question, Kirikiri pondered for a moment and replied.

“It varies greatly in some cases, but assuming the planet's largest religion, we can gather a force similar to the one we extracted from the entire planet in 200 years. ”

There was a big difference in efficiency

If the planet doesn't die, faith will give us strength for thousands of years or more.

“The gods aren't interested in extracting the source. ”

“Right? The gods never destroy planets and extract their origins. On his own turf.”

The last word was the heart of the meaning.

“Outside his territory? ”

“There are rules in the temple to prevent that. ”

I laughed without knowing.

I had to.

This situation was so funny.

Instead of extracting the source, religion was prioritized not for the sake of the Faith and its planet, but for the long-term benefit.

The rules of the Temple and the consequences of it have eventually come from treaties to preserve each other's territory.

Depends on the logic.

Although the scale was different, it was no different from the way humans hugged in society.

Rather, it looked uglier because of the fact that the scale was large.

Kirikiri frowned at my smile.

It looked unfair.

“I still don't think the system of the temple is very wrong. If there had been no temple, so had the gods invaded other realms of existence without sanctions, there would be few civilizations left intact in the world. ”

I was not really interested in the usefulness of the temple and its system.

It was none of my business.

“What about the vaccine or the completion of the Almighty? ”

“They don't need to care. It was our intention to bind them to the temple in the first place. ”

The system of the temple itself was originally designed to fill each other's necklaces.

I have been thinking that the system that has arisen for some reason has increased in scale and has become too constrained for the gods.

But now it turns out that the system was originally built for constraints.

“The problem is that the finishers don't belong to the temple. They're calling in the rent. Conversely, the constraints inside the temple are getting worse. The results are starting to come back. That was the case with Earth. ”

“Earth?”

Suddenly, Earth was mentioned.

“The Earth was a communal zone of the vaccine. Buffer zone. When the finishers reached out to the Earth, we could only summon humans in the tutorial to train them. ”

Kirikiri quickly follows me out of my mind.

“It's the same for us to yearn for a great apostle, and for you to have great expectations. The gods of the vaccine are powerful, but under such strong constraints. ”

Kirikiri took me seriously and pointed at me with his finger.

“The rules of the temple are growing day by day, and the finalists are being raised from out of our reach. We have to take action before the scales go over there someday. Eliminate the finishers or remove any unnecessary build-up of regulations. ”

In order to wipe out the completers and reduce their taxes, God, not the apostle, must stand up for himself.

The finishers have gained some dignity.

God himself is constrained.

It comes to the conclusion that we must break the constraints in order to reach the finalists in the last order.

“Looks like the finishers are bright inside the temple. ”

Out of the reach of the gods, they do not bluntly invade their territory and are being tributed.

Of course, we must be familiar with the unique realm of the gods and the constraints that are being imposed on them.

“You know very well. ”

Kirikiri blinks.

It was the look of hostility toward something.

It was hard to see in Kirikiri.

“Remember 49th floor? ”

“Huh."

I remember it very well because it was an impressive stage.

“On the 49th floor, there was a shrine of God. It was a hidden shrine, a small one, of course. Nevertheless, the world was engulfed in a monster of origin. ”

There was a shrine of the god of hope.

Of course, the monsters were unable to enter the sanctuary.

Nevertheless, monsters were able to conquer most of the continent.

Maybe the extractor was installed somewhere on the continent, and the source was extracted.

I asked Kirikiri how monsters could have fled on a planet with a shrine of God.

But Kirikiri didn't tell me the answer.

I just repeated one thing.

“You have to remember. ”

* * *

“I can see how much you're looking forward to me. ”

“Grains?”

Kirikiri, who was eating cake, asked.

It was very contrary to giving information with a serious face a moment ago.

Kirikiri was trying to eat at least one more mouth than Hotch and Yong Yong who were eating cake next to each other.

I was reluctant to answer, but my eyes, mouth and hands were completely focused on the cake.

“As long as I refuse to be an apostle, I am the finisher. ”

It has the power and ability to compare to God, but can move regardless of the constraints of the Temple.

“At the same time, it has a purpose somewhat consistent with the wishes of the gods. ”

“Your choice. Do what you want. ”

Kirikiri remarked.

I feel like I'm losing my mind to the cake and answering roughly.

But I knew that Kirikiri really thought that way.

I want to liberate the tutorial.

That way I thought of destroying the temple's system itself.

However, according to the information so far, there was one prerequisite for liberating the tutorial.

The consent of the gods of the vaccine, the owners of the tutorial.

And in exchange for gaining their consent.

I had to pay inevitably to bring something back.

What would the gods of the vaccine ask in exchange for handing over the tutorial to me?

Several things came to mind, but it was all there.

“I'm going to be a mercenary even if I go out there. ”
