The Undetectable Strongest Job: Rule Breaker

Underground of the Ancient Divine People 1

"Ugh... not nice"

Hikaru apologized. "I'm a little scared," I proclaimed "I'll step through the dungeon" while I told Lavia, "Then let's get out of here," etc.

The roots of the tongue are well said before it dries.

That's right. Lavia laughs at this, too.

"It's okay. I'd be mad if they told me that much. I also wanted to say, 'Even though Hikaru is amazing'. But you can't say it from me... my own Hikaru said it to me and I'm soooo relieved."

"I'd appreciate it if you'd say that."

"And Hikaru wouldn't go wrong, would he? If you think your life is in danger, forget about the trespass. You can turn around properly."

"Oh, I promise. Because if you don't step on it with your living body, it doesn't make sense."

"So let's go, shall we?

The two of them had just come to the front of the temple.

Earlier adventurers heard Hikaru's proclamation —— after some silence, a big bang. "Good luck at best," he left to go into the dungeon first.

The guild attendant took some notes with a disgusting face when Hikaru shielded the rules: "... I'll admit the passage, but I'll report this to the guild". Hikaru thinks you don't mind reporting as much as you want. After this, I'm out of the country. Instead, I stood by my feelings.

"Let's go"

It looks like a stone shack, but it was definitely a temple there.

Inside there is a shelf at the wall, with traces of bone kettles lined up. Cremation habits are rare in this world. Was the urn taken away for investigation?

The "Underground of the Ancient Divine People" is the gateway to this temple.

The history of discovery had changed in the first place, according to the emergence of low-ranking spiritual monsters around the streets. When adventurers hit the survey because there were no settlements or cemeteries nearby, they found this temple.

A simple staircase is attached to a puffy hole in the ground.

The entrance to the dungeon, not "just holes were empty" at the time of discovery.

Looks like the "Underground of the Ancient Divine People" is spreading as we loosely descend about 200 meters.

"This temple has nothing to do with the underground. Because the undead monsters that appear in the underground are wearing ancient Poerne senior dynasty clothes. The ancient Poerncian dynasty has collapsed more than 600 years ago. The establishment of the temple has been around for the last 100 years."

And, says historian Gafrasti-Nu-Barbs.

I mean, the underground was built by the humans of the ancient Poerncian dynasty, and the bodies there undead, he said.

Undead monsters attract souls. There was an undead who dug the ground over the years, and didn't he reach this temple —— a statement in the "dossier". Imagine an undead who has been digging the ground with his bare hands for hundreds of years, a hical who feels horrible when he thinks of that obsession.

By the way, I had Roland's knowledge that "Poerne Senior" was an ancient language reading of "Pawnsonian". I had only vague memories of the dynasty's history.

"Watch your step."

"Thanks"

Hikaru steps out to the stairs first and takes Lavia's hand.

The stairs are fitted with a magic guide lamp at the wall. Since it is at a certain distance, the vision can be ensured while it is insufficient. Activate "mass blockade" and Hikaru goes down the underground with Lavia.

(That's getting creepy...)

I feel the temperature dropping. A weak breeze is blowing from the back to bring cold air. The walls turn into peeled rock beds. The lamp's illuminating rock skin is soggy and wet.

Somewhere, pimp, and droplets dripped.

I thought 200 meters wasn't long, but unexpectedly, it felt far away. Both Hikaru and Lavia will have fewer words. But if there is a beginning, naturally there is an end.

"Wah... wide"

The passage ended abruptly. Where you two left off, it's a private stone house. There was a hole in the wall, and the passage was connected there. Suddenly the teasing air enters my mouth.

I guess a bunch of humans have come, the floor is muddy. Boroy blankets and tables are placed.

—— AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

I could hear something like a dog howling from afar.

How dare Hikaru gaze at Lavia. It's not a dog. Monsters...... or, you would be human.

Gi...... and the wooden door opened outside. Black darkness is opening its mouth.

From here on out. Finally, the dungeon opens the curtain.

Squeezing the light of the demon guide lamp to the critical point, Lavia held it. Connect the other hand with Hikaru.

"I'm coming."

Lavia nodded as Hikaru said.

Out of the cabin.

Shin, he's quiet. Even a thick cloud-dropping dark night would be a little brighter.

There is a subtlety as if the world is over and we are alone.

As soon as I got out, my feet were booming. It seems to be a small bridge. Rather than the creek —— the waterway —— surrounds the house. However, the water is dry.

Out across the bridge. The road is trampled but the dust dances because it is dry. I have no problem walking. I can see the house across the street as soon as I put up the lamp.

It's a stone house with a front door about five steps up the stairs. I could tell from a few houses that they were all built the same.

The houses are still hundreds of years old for stone building, but most of them were where the roof was decaying and falling; where there are second or third floors, the ground floor part is safe. But already after being vandalized by the adventurers. Tans was turned upside down and the ceramic plate was cracked.

"... it smells terrible"

It was too quiet, "underground," but Hikaru sniffed off the odd smell. The smell of meat that could be--.

"Shh."

Hikaru was able to react because he was aware of its (...) proximity. I blocked Lavia's mouth with my hands.

sleigh from the shadow of the house and a man who appeared —— who was once a man.

The eyeballs fall off and the eye area is indented. Her lower lip peeled off and her yellow teeth peeled out.

I glance at my right hand from the sleeve of my clothes but I can't see my left hand. I think I've already got it from around my elbow.

My feet are fluttering. But I'm walking. I don't see how I noticed this one.

Dead Citizen.

Among the undead monsters is called Miscellaneous Fish of Miscellaneous Fish. But there is something troublesome about it. This guy calls his people. Anyway, this is the "underground." My people will have as many as they want.

("Blocking" is going well. Even with the light I haven't noticed...... I mean, no eyes, in the first place. undead monsters don't seem to have a problem with blindness)

Does it have the ability to "detect" systems when it does? I thought you might be able to see the soulboard because you're a former (...) human, but that doesn't seem convenient.

Actually, the undead monster doesn't catch on to Hikaru's "Life Detection". But "magic detection" clearly took place. 100 meters radius around Hikaru. Undead Monsters —— There are probably 12 Dead Citizens.

(Quite a lot. One at a time, even a mundane adventurer would be able to deal with them, but they'd be tough if they called their buddies)

Hikaru pulls Lavia's hand and turns behind Dead Citizen.

Pull out the Shortcuts of Arms. And --.

"Huh."

I stuck my blade in the position of my heart. When I thought the Dead Citizen was shuddered, I crept to the spot. Boom, and dust broke out.

"Is it weird to say that I can kill you without a problem... I can take it down, but I don't like this fluid."

The dark liquid stuck to the blade.

"Hikaru. It must be Dead Citizen, this? Is your heart a weakness? I don't think there was a statement like that."

"The magic was concentrated there. Image of turning it down."

That's also what I found out thanks to "Magic Detection," but Lavia opened her mouth small "Oh".

"Hikaru understands the flow of magic. Maybe we'll be able to use magic, too?

"Ha... I hope so"

(As soon as I can shake the point...... I just can't afford it at all. even if --)

Hikaru questioned two things in the current battle.

(Does defeating an undead monster raise the rank of your soul?

This can be solved in experiments. I don't mind, but you can defeat many Dead Citizens.

I can't use magic. Because magic stands out. And the smell is amazing.

The other is:

(Why are there monsters near these entrances?

Hundreds or thousands of adventurers should be challenging this dungeon since its discovery five years ago. It is also clear from the fact that the building near the entrance has been vandalized and exhausted. Naturally, even monsters will be hunted down around here.

Nonetheless, soon Hikaru went to Dead Citizen to meet him.

The Dead Citizen remains down on the spot. Keep dressed like a borough cloth.

(Well, fine. Now let's move on)

The Dead Citizen doesn't seem to notice this one thanks to its exertion of "mass blockade".

Other than that, the fallen dead citizen of meat —— the bone-only monster Skeleton.

"Skeleton Armor" specializes in combat, superior to Skeleton. This is not wearing armor, but running magic on the body surface to harden the body.

Skeleton "Skeleton Mage" with a wand seems to use magic, but it's fine because it can be defeated before it's noticed.

Ghost, a spiritual monster that also looks a little dark fog.

There were monsters around here.

There was, or there was so much (...).

If you don't mind walking, you encounter it every 5 minutes. Roughly every two or three of them are herded.

In the meantime, Hikaru decided to take it down from one end.

Skeleton had a mass of magic in his skull so he stuck a short knife in his head.

Though I didn't know if the physical attack would work on the Ghost, I stabbed him mundaneously when I tried, and the response was clear. It felt like ripping a cloth.

First question: "Does defeating an undead monster raise the rank of your soul?" I immediately got an answer about it.

Up.

Exceptionally bad rise compared to goblins and green wolves, however. Would it be about 1/5 as a percentage?

Still, raising the rank of the soul is a priority for Hikaru, so he decided to take it down unless he went far.

That's when.

"-- Hey, there's an addition coming!

"-- I know! Hold him down!"

"-- a little tight!

"--Tension or olah!

I heard voices along with metal sounds.

Beyond the darkness, I can see the puffy, floating lights.

There were five adventurers fighting a bunch of skeletons.

"What's going on!? There's no limit! Knock it down or knock it down--"

"That's why I screwed Holy Water!

"Every single one is weak, so I'm nervous!

"Oh, bad, I don't have enough magic anymore..."

"Oh!? Or bitten, yes, stay!

I knew right away.

These are the adventurers I met at the dungeon entrance.

"Heh...?

Apparently, he's struggling.

"Hikaru. You look so bad"

"I guess. As usual though."

Hikaru takes Lavia's hand and walks over to you.
