184 – Fetch – 2
“Ah, we have to walk from here!”
We were able to arrive near the ruins that Fech said about after a full day of riding the wagon. Fetch, looking very excited, jumped out of the wagon, and I followed closely behind.
‘… … It’s really dirty.’
Was it on purpose to drain my energy, or was it my natural personality? Fetch kept talking nonstop all the way here.
When I asked why he was so talkative, he said that since he was wandering around so much alone, he said it was like an occupational disease in order to somehow keep himself safe.
After the wagon had left, only the two of us remained, and Fetch began to lead the way, gesturing to us this way.
‘I guess Rize is following along well.’
I felt sorry for making him follow me for a whole day without being able to rest, but since he himself said it was at the level of a child’s play, it’s probably okay.
Nyx, after a while, teleportation will catch up with you.
“Here it is!”
Pech stopped after walking for almost two hours through the mountains. I checked where my finger was pointing.
Even so, the trees were densely overgrown, and the surroundings were exquisitely covered with piles of rocks and weeds, so it was hard to notice even if I knew that beyond this was the entrance to the ruins.
Especially, even though it was a place I was tired of visiting in the game. I thought it was a place that might be full of treasures, so I thought it was hidden with great care.
“ah! Wait! Disarm the trap first!”
After removing all the rocks, a thin arm stopped me and I headed towards the entrance of the ruins first. Fetch, who was about to bend down, looked back and opened his mouth as if making an excuse with a humble face.
“If I’m not there, someone else shouldn’t steal it first. That’s why.”
The thing installed at the entrance of the ruins was a trap that Fech had set up to block any intruders.
In the game, there is no way they would take the lead, so the player had to break through the trap himself, but there were quite a few people who tried to enter the ruins, got caught in the trap, got cut at the entrance, came back vigorously, and killed Fetch.
Fetch, who had been humming a song for a while and dismantling the trap he had made, gestured to come in with a bright smile as if the work was finished.
“That’s Okay! Let’s go!”
As he moved his steps, he took advantage of the gap when Fetch turned his back and dropped a small scroll. It was a scroll with a magic circle that transmitted the current coordinates to Nyx if I was away from my body for a certain amount of time.
Now Nyx can come here too. Rize is probably still watching from somewhere.
entered the ruins. I was greeted by a space similar to the game, but much larger. As befits a place called a ruin rather than a dungeon, it gave off the feeling that it was artificially constructed.
I looked around and muttered, glancing at Fetch.
“Isn’t it too empty to be a two million gold ruin?”
“Ah, I robbed this place a long time ago! If I am the discoverer, will I use it if I leave it alone? Anyway, this is only a small part, and there is a lot more space inside!”
It’s a lie. When the player falls into a trap, he confesses with his own mouth that this place has been empty from the beginning.
Well, if there really was treasure, I would have robbed it long ago.
went down further inward. As if he couldn’t control his excitement at the thought of throwing me off his back, Fetch was even humming. It was only natural that he was thinking that he had caught a big fish.
How far down did he go, Fetch pointed to the entrance to the inner room.
“I’m here! See that door? That’s it!”
Beyond the entrance, which was about my height and wide enough for two people to stand together, I saw treasure chests lined up inside.
Each box was covered with gold leaf and adorned with precious jewels.
“From there, it’s a place I haven’t been able to explore! See those boxes? Just looking at it, don’t you think it must have been a lot of splendid things?”
“yes? It looks normal at first glance, but there must be a reason you didn’t touch it, right?”
“There is, but um… … It’s hard to explain in words, so it’s better to see it for yourself. Go check it out!”
In this way, while evading explanations, they sneakily lead them into the room.
Fetch took the lead and went inside the entrance. I followed him and went inside. Standing near the entrance, Fetch pointed to a box placed some distance away.
“Now I will tell you why. Come a little closer and take a look.”
I laughed inwardly when I saw Fetch guiding me inside while I headed towards the entrance. It was a very natural movement, whether it was a skill he had done once or twice.
tuned the outfit Approaching right next to the crate, Fetch opened his mouth and started talking nonsense. Pretending to focus on the information, I checked Fetch’s figure.
He was moving his feet towards the door little by little, chattering back and forth with his mouth. It was so little that you wouldn’t even notice that it was moving unless you really paid attention to it.
He must be planning to take advantage of my focus on the box, quickly escape by himself, and then close the entrance. I quietly waited for Fetch to reveal his true colors.
“… … So, this is a trap. See this sign here? Compare it to the box next to it.”
The opportunity came quickly. I turned my head in the direction my finger was pointing at Fetch’s words, which were blatantly trying to divert my attention, thinking that he would soon see the angle.
It was as expected. As soon as I turned my head, I heard the sound of running, which was getting farther and farther away.
I looked at the entrance to the room. Right after the pink twin tails disappeared outside, Koo-ung! With a sound, the iron bar came down and blocked the door.
“hahahaha!”
Fetch was laughing triumphantly in front of the iron bars. I also walked to the iron grate, holding back the laughter that was about to burst out.
“What is it all of a sudden?”
“What! You tricked me! You are finished!”
Fetch, who showed his true colors, did not even use honorifics. There is no need to be polite to the prey you just caught.
“It’s a trap for idiots like you, I don’t know if you’ll like it. A foolish idiot who goes crazy for money and rushes without hesitation. are you just is not it? Well, it’s a story that doesn’t make much sense to me, who is innocent!”
‘It says the same as the game.’
I couldn’t hold back my laughter when I heard the word irresponsible. Seeing that, Fetch’s complexion became even more mean.
“Ha, are you laughing? Do you know what your situation is now?”
“My situation? How are you?”
As if he didn’t like his nonchalant attitude even though he was tricked and fell into a trap, Fetch twitched his eyes for a moment and snorted.
“You think you can get out of there, but give it a try. No one has ever come out of that room. The same goes for you!”
“I’m not worried anymore after hearing that. Saying it never happened doesn’t mean it will happen from now on. Do you buy without reading the novel?”
And here I am going to set a precedent.
As if thinking that my words were bluffing, Fetch giggled while holding on to his stomach. Fetch laughed for a while, wiping away the tears with his fingers.
“Do you know that no one ever said something like you? but there is The guy who said that, starved to death here? Later, he begged me to take him out, but he never did. You will be the same.”
“Well. Probably not.”
“Think on your own. I’m destined to die soon anyway, so I should think freely. Ah, don’t worry too much! If you’re dead when you come back later, I’ll take off everything you’re wearing and sell it!”
As Fetch waved his hand and left, I was left alone in the room with the colorful treasure chests.
The number of boxes placed here was exactly 13. From the entrance, there are 6 of them along the left and right walls, and on the wall opposite the entrance, there is one of the largest and most colorful boxes.
The treasure chests were all very ornately decorated, giving off the impression that, at first glance, they might be full of treasure, and that must have been the case.
If it wasn’t for the Mimic.
‘The guy I don’t like! What’s the reaction?’
As Fetch escaped the ruins, he was swearing at the man trapped inside. When crying and crying isn’t enough, what the hell is there to laugh at?
Thanks to that, I didn’t have the taste of watching it, so I couldn’t even speak the lines I had originally prepared. It was an element that made the heat spread again. There are mimics among the treasure chests, so I was going to tell you to choose carefully.
As soon as the woman who had been trapped in the previous sequence realized that she had been tricked, she cried and begged to be freed. So I had a taste for doing this and that.
Well, in the end I was eaten by a Mimic and died.
‘How many more do we have to let in now?’
It was true that even Fetch himself had not been able to explore all of the ruins.
There is a Mimic among the chests in the room, but he doesn’t know what the real treasure chest is. I didn’t want to open the wrong one and get eaten by Mimic.
That’s why we bring people here, lock them up, and tell them to find the real box.
If the now trapped guy succeeds, wait until he dies of starvation and take out the treasure and possessions, and if he fails, bring him a new one as before.
That man was sixth.
I usually catch them by horse and bring them back, but I didn’t know that there would be people who buy maps like that. Spending a million gold on a piece of paper that might contain something was insane anyway.
‘Still, you can tell the difference between the front and the back, right? I hope I don’t have that level of intelligence.’
There was a lot of blood in front of the boxes where people were eaten and died, but the blood stains were intentionally lessened. Just in case there is no misfortune to open the same box.
‘Well, since I’ve made a lot of money, I’ll take care of it even if I make a mistake.’
Fetch smiled happily as he recalled the million gold in his bag. If it was a million gold, there would be no problem at all even if you play around for a few months. It’s been a long time since I felt like I could afford some extravagance.
It was the moment he was about to leave the ruins while humming a song.
“Obviously there were two people when I went in, but why is there only one person coming out? That is very strange.”
I stopped at the voice I heard from the entrance of the ruins. Someone was blocking the entrance. A familiar silhouette, a woman’s voice I had never heard before.
“you are… … .”
I knew who that woman was.
Blue hair and blue eyes. Wearing a white sleeveless top and a neat uniform called Dolphin Pants. Big breasts of a size that cannot be hidden at all even with conquest that covers all places to be covered, and a body with no corners.
It was the woman who was stuck next to the black-haired man who had been imprisoned there.
Fetch looked around. The shorter one was nowhere to be seen. either left behind or hidden. it will be one of the two
“How did you get here?”
First of all, I tried to understand the situation with respectful words. It was urgent to find out how far that woman had noticed.
If you simply followed the man without knowing anything, you can entice him with words and send him back, if not… … will have to kill
“How did you come, I came to catch you.”
“… … Yes?”
The blue-haired woman grinned.
“It means you know everything, you impostor. You cheated on my man and locked him in there.”
“… … .”
If you say it that way, there is no need to tremble. Fetch’s impression became grim.
He must have asked for something before he came here. Was that the reason why I was elated even though I fell into a trap? Do you know that she’s coming to the rescue?
‘Ah, that’ll do.’
Fetch grinned.
If you believe in her, you can kill her, cut her throat, and throw her. Then he will know that the corner he believed in has been shattered, and he will have a face full of despair like everyone else.
Besides, to get out of here anyway, I had to deal with that woman, so it killed two birds with one stone.
Petch, who had put the bag on the ground, took off his coat and folded it neatly. Then he took out a weapon from his bag. It was a sword that he used to use whenever he had to use a weapon.
I don’t even remember who the original owner was. Killed too long ago.
“What are you trying to fight me for? Stop bothering and just surrender?”
The woman snorted. It was one of two things if he did that even when he saw the other person pulling out his weapon. A young chick who doesn’t even know his own skills. Or a worn-out, out-of-standard strongman.
However, judging from that deadly body, it didn’t seem like he was a strong player outside of the standard.
How can you move properly with those absurdly sized breasts? In order to move swiftly with Jago, there must be no superfluity in the body.
“The eyewitness must be killed. I’m not going to let you go like this anyway.”
“What, do you know? Then the conversation will be fast.”
The woman snapped her finger. It means come in first. Apparently, it looked like Fetch looked down on him as a merchant. It was clear from the fact that he didn’t even draw his weapon.
‘It’s just right.’
It’s a welcome thing for Fetch. I knew very well how people should die because I had done it to the point of getting bored. And that woman will be no different.
I kicked off the ground and ran at the fastest speed I could. The speed was so fast that she couldn’t even react, and the woman didn’t even put her hand on the weapon until the moment Fetch was about to stab her.
‘Goodbye, fool!’
I aimed at the uvula and stabbed the sword.
The tip of the knife pierced the woman’s uvula.
“… … uh?”
“I’m asking just in case, isn’t this the end?”
It certainly would have been if the woman hadn’t grabbed the blade with her bare hands.
It was a completely unexpected situation. Fetch stood tall in place. The woman clicked her tongue.
“Did you just kill me with this kind of skill? It’s pitiful.”
Fetch tried to draw his sword. Since she was holding the blade with her bare hands, if she pulled out the sword, it would rather be that woman who would get hurt.
“profit… … urg… … !”
However, the sword never moved.
She tried to pull it, push it, turn it, and move it sideways, but the knife held in the woman’s hand didn’t even move.
That said, there was a huge power gap between Fetch and that woman. To the extent that it was impossible to even make it move, let alone draw the sword.
‘Damn it!’
I thought she was a bitch with a smooth face like other aristocrats, but she was used as a bodyguard and cockhouse. The thought that I was wrong suddenly ran through my head.
Seeing Fetch struggling desperately to draw his sword, the woman opened her mouth in a pitiful voice.
“Since you still seem to be out of your mind, let me give you one piece of advice.”
“I don’t need that-”
“There is only one thing in the world that can stab me.”
The woman moved her arm lightly. At the same time, Fetch’s body floated into the air and flew backwards for a long time. Fetch quickly flipped upside down, bent his legs, and landed before he hit the ground.
I raised my head right away. Can you attack right away?
“… … !”
It wasn’t. The woman stood still, clutching the knife Fetch used with both hands.
The woman, who held the tip of the sword with her left hand and the handle with her right hand, gave strength as it was.
ㅡKicking Geek!
‘That crazy woman… … !’
Fetch’s face was stained with astonishment. The knife began to bend like a piece of candy, and the tip of the handle touched the tip of the knife. The knife folded in half in the middle was shrunk to exactly 1/2 its length.
‘The steel sword… … Did you fold it by force?’
The woman casually threw the sword that had shrunk to 1/2 its length. Brilliant, and A pitiful metal sound echoed through the ruins. Fetch hesitated, taking a few steps back involuntarily.
The blue-haired woman, who folded the steel longsword as easily as eating a cake, flicked her finger, still not holding up her weapon.
“You say you’re killing me. What are you doing not messing around?”
