: A spell method developed by the Ludenarch School, a group of evil imitators.

The rune taken from the enemy wizard was [Luden Arc Spell].
There were four runes to choose from, but I didn’t attach much importance to the rune selection in the first place.
This is because these are all runes that can be obtained by continuing to conquer the dungeon anyway, and even if I obtain them, I don’t think they will be of great help to my power right away.
The important thing is information.
The goal was to obtain even the slightest information about the Ludenarch School.
‘… ‘The power of the devil?’
And an unfamiliar word written in .
Devil.
[Luden Arc Spell] Was stated to borrow the power of the devil, and that it could only be used with a special rune called [Oath of Darkness].
They said they were a group of people imitating evil, but it seems they were a group that was really close to the source of evil.
I clicked my tongue and looked away.
The first battle at the entrance of the dungeon was fierce.
Our clan achieved a clean victory without a single injured person.
The Chimeras, who boasted a far-out number, were all dead and lying in pieces, and the wizard who had been captured in advance was also captured in a bloody state.
‘… ‘I guess I bit a little hard.’
The sight of the kneeling wizard was incredible.
In particular, the waist area is stained quite red, which means that Tyrbond has not adjusted its bite force.
“Kill him.”
The wizard suddenly became angry and spoke to me.
Just a moment ago, he asked me to save him, but then he changed his words again to tell me to kill him.
I snorted and began the interrogation.
“What is your name?”
“There is no name to speak of to a lowly human like you.”
What happens between the same people?
Looking at his expression, it looks like he has no intention of revealing any information… I didn’t have high expectations in the first place.
“How old are you?”
“I don’t know.”
“What is your affiliation?”
“I don’t know.”
“It must be the Ludenarch School, huh?”
“…… !!”
The wizard’s face is startled by a direct mention.
I was so happy there.
‘Bingo.’
There is a clue.
The fact that the enemies do not yet know that we have come to this dungeon.
When the wizard first used his solo ultimate skill against me, I thought it was the opposite, but it seems he only shared information about me and didn’t know much about the current situation.
And that means again…
The kidnapping of Choi A-rin may not have been intentional.
When she came to the dungeon, the thing she was most worried about was her physical condition, but maybe she hadn’t been seriously hurt or in trouble yet.
I briefly looked at Choi Yu-min, who had tears in his eyes, and gave him a look of reassurance, and continued the interrogation.
“What is your gender?”
“… What?”
“The series is… Well, after fighting, it seems like he’s a wizard.”
“… “What are we going to do?”
“You’re not going to tell me where your superiors are, right? “Of course, I won’t tell you the location of the kidnapped Holders.”
“Human!! Come play with me now… Kwaak?!”
Puck!
I hit the guy on the head with a sound.
Why isn’t this guy being questioned?
I turned my head and walked away.
The clan members were still armed and focused on me.
They were looking at me with puzzled faces.
“I think there was enough time to rest. “We’ll be leaving soon, so everyone get ready.”
“Now, just a moment, Master.”
At the sudden order to start, Team 4 leader Kim A-reum called me.
She asked, looking back and forth between the wizard and me as if something was strange.
“Are you going to leave like this? “Isn’t there still more work to do?”
“This is enough for interrogation.”
“… This? No no. Even if that’s the case, how are you going to deal with that wizard?”
[Power Meteor] And dark attribute ultimate skill.
You can tell the level of the attack just by looking at it.
The wizard of Luden Arc in front of him was at least a level A holder.
Of course, it would never be possible to release him like this, and it would be a burden for the clan to keep him in captivity.
Kim Ah-reum was asking about his handling of it.
… At least I have to kill him here.
In that implicit sense.
It seemed like some clan members had similar questions, so I gave them a brief answer.
“Keep them in captivity.”
“Master!”
“Of course, we won’t take you with us.”
“… Yes?”
Kim Ah-reum’s expression changes again as she shouts in excitement.
They are being held captive, but we are not taking them with them.
I couldn’t quite understand what was being said for a moment.
Then I turned my head and looked towards the entrance of the dungeon.
Tap, click, click.
Chrrreuk!
There.
The holders are fully armed…
They were entering one by one as a group.
Unlike , This dungeon has no special entry requirements.
Of course, other holders besides us can also enter.
And their identities were famous people that I and my clan members could easily identify.
“Ah… !”
“The holders belonging to the association… !!”
“… Judgment by fire?”
“There are royal clan members over there!”
The clan members are surprised to see them like that.
, , .
Starting with the three major clans that have signed a friendship agreement with our clan, there are other major domestic clans.
There was even a holder association at the forefront that entrusted the request to us.
Although cooperation was planned…
A lot more power arrived at a much quicker timing.
I added an explanation while looking at the clan members.
“From now on, operations will be carried out jointly by the Association and each clan. The transport of prisoners will be entirely handled by the Holder Association. Also, our clan, which has the compass, will be the leading searcher, but other clans will search for directions that the compass does not point to.”
An incident where the holders were kidnapped serially.
Even though it was a case entrusted to our clan in the form of a request, other clans did not sit still as it was an unprecedented incident.
Most major domestic clans have accepted ‘S request for cooperation and provided additional troops.
Their main role is to help our clan in general exploration of the dungeon.
The task was to capture members of the Ludenarch School or catch related information that we, who mainly search for kidnappers, may have missed.
“The Holder Association will reside at the entrances within and outside the dungeon and assist our clan. The most important thing to us is time. We must find and protect kidnapping victims as quickly as possible. “Our collaborators will help us with the rest.”
In other words, the wizard’s interrogation ended too quickly.
It is not because there is a lack of need for interrogation.
It was because there was not enough time for that.
Interrogating a single prisoner and making him spit out information takes a very long time and effort, so our clan didn’t have time to pay attention to that right now.
We must immediately find the kidnapped Holders and destroy Ludenarch’s plan to do something through them.
It was a division of roles for that purpose.
“And to make the search more efficient, we sought another collaborator from outside. “This person will act as a temporary member of our clan during this incident and help with exploration and strategy.”
“… Another collaborator?”
This time, Yu Eun-seol, the clan vice-master, also tilted his head.
This is a story I tell my clan members for the first time.
This was something that even the teacher had never heard of.
“Yes, let me introduce you. “Among the current domestic holders, I am Ji-hwan Park, the holder who knows the most about the Ludenarch School.”
A holder was walking from afar…
As soon as I finished speaking, it quickly reached the side.
Agility and speed almost as if using an assault rune.
Taking advantage of the clan members’ surprise, I immediately added an explanation.
“In Korea, he is called Ryu Ji-hyuk. “There are only five S-class holders in Korea.”
“…… !!”
“Ryu, Ryu Ji-hyuk Holder?!”
“No, what is that…” .”
An unexpected name appears.
Jihyuk Ryu.
He is one of only five S-class holders in Korea, and is a man who is so new that he is also called a mysterious holder.
Thanks to his unique balanced abilities, he was a holder who received quite a lot of respect in the warrior class.
‘… This must be your first time revealing your original name.’
But his real identity is Park Ji-hwan.
The name Ryu Ji-hyuk was a new identity created by changing his face with special abilities.
He was the first to tell me about the dangers of the Ludenarch School, and he is also the person who knows the most about Ludenark other than me.
I have been thinking about cooperating with him since this incident occurred.
When I was contacted once before, there was talk of sharing related information, and more than anything, I thought things would be much easier if an S-class holder joined and helped.
‘… ‘I really didn’t know you would come.’
I didn’t expect you to come willingly, even revealing your name.
In his words, he said that he no longer needs to hide his name as he has clearly captured Luden Arc’s tail.
Anyway, for us, the appearance of very reliable reinforcements.
The clan members who found out his identity were shocked and could not close their mouths.
And, there was one clan member who was most surprised by Park Ji-hwan’s appearance.
The leader of the place where the 5 temporary hunting teams are located.
This is where my best friend and team leader Jinwoo Park is.
“… Dad?”
It was the moment when an unexpected father-son reunion took place.
