77 – Dungeon (2)
Tururu.
A beep sounds. However, the other party is not answering the call. It sounds like the caller is hanging up, seeing as the phone rings and then hangs up in the middle.
Kang Yoo-han repeatedly called several times, and each time the phone hung up, he was very angry.
“You dare! Don’t answer my phone!”
Today is the promised day. But not answering the phone means breaking the promise.
“You can’t do this. You must keep your promise!”
When I hurriedly put in a message, a read mark came to mind. This means that the other party has read the message. But no reply comes. Kang Yuhan was really angry.
“This dog b*tch!”
Beside him, his son Kang Il-nam looked at him with worried eyes.
“Oh, Father….”
“You stay still.”
Kang Il-nam was now doing today and tomorrow. Originally an old man, he was recuperating at his home preparing for the end of the rest of his life.
He started attending the academy half a year ago, following his father’s torch. He had no great regrets in his eternal life.
“You can’t die.”
“Father….”
“Only you have to survive somehow….”
Kang Yoo-han suddenly remembered the time he had awakened.
When he first awakened his immortality ability, he thought it was meaningful that he had this special ability. He had meaning, so he thought he was living a long life without dying like everyone else.
It was an illusion.
After family members died, friends died, and acquaintances died, my thoughts changed.
This isn’t a special ability, it’s a curse.
The curse of having to dwell on solitude for the rest of your life.
When I was denying the meaning of life like that, Daye Yu appeared. She said, instantly rejuvenating an old cat by the side of the road.
-If you do me a favor, I will tell you the secret to immortality.
She knew all about her own circumstances. She didn’t ask, but she knew her weakness. She even knew the password to the bankbook. It’s amazing.
She didn’t treat herself badly then, unlike she does now. Come to think of it, at some point she started to treat herself badly.
I knew that my son’s lifespan was shortening, so I acted that way.
“b*tch like a bug… !”
If you think about it, you should have been more suspicious. But Kang Yuhan trusted her own discernment. As a person lives for a long time, his insight improves as his thinking hardens. Yu Daye’s ability was real. So Kang Yoo-han fulfilled all her requests.
She admitted Ymir to the academy, who was originally unacceptable, and she prepared this and that for him. While hiding his background, it was he who made monsters appear in the dungeon and hid the Book of Engraving in the library.
But Daye Yu deceived himself. Did she mean to cheat on her from the start?
Since her ability was real, she probably didn’t mean to fake it in the first place. Kang Yuhan has been involved in her plan for a long time, and she has seen a lot of her ability, and she thinks that she really has the ability to rejuvenate others.
Then why did he suddenly change his mind?
Kang Yuhan has been wiser than others since she has lived for a long time. So she quickly realized.
I’m useless.
Kang Yoo-han was furious. Throwing away a person like a devoted partner just because there is nothing to ask of them now. He was about to throw his smartphone with his invisible arm, but his son Kang Il-nam stopped him.
“Father…. I am not very interested in eternal life.”
Kang Il-nam is an old man over 70, but in front of Kang Yoo-han, he looks like a seven-year-old child.
“No. You will change your mind when you get younger.”
“Since I was 30, I have been fed up with life. It lasted another 40 years. I don’t want to live anymore.”
“It’s because you’re old.”
“It’s not old, it’s a natural phenomenon.”
Kang Yoo-han shouted no. At that moment, Kang Il-nam vomited blood. It is because Kang Yoo-han, who was angry, unknowingly put magic into his old voice.
“Uh, uh… no.”
“Father….”
“No. Do not die.”
“Don’t live for others, live your life for yourself.”
Kang Il-nam taught Kang Yu-han like Hun-soo, then he took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He was in a state where it wouldn’t be strange if he died anytime, so it was natural for him to die.
“Uh, uh, uh….”
Kang Youhan saw the death of many people and immediately realized that his son was dead.
Sorrow rises after the death of his son.
“… ….”
After a while, the rising sadness subsided, and anger took its place.
“If this was what you were hoping for, I wouldn’t be suffering either.”
* * *
The inside of the dungeon was like a cave, but it was winding. It was strangely winding that there was such a winding cave on the island.
While walking for a while, Mo Yeji found something and said.
“There is something strange on the wall.”
Looking at what others couldn’t, it seems that he was activating his precognitive ability.
After a while, her children noticed the strange thing she said.
“What, what, this!”
“Flesh?”
Go Soo-young was surprised and Han Cheol-woo judged calmly.
Yoo Seong-won smirked at the messy flesh.
“It has been like this since the beginning. Isn’t this a very dangerous place?”
Choi Ji-seong made excuses for nothing.
“It’s a place for our level.”
“You must have been to this dungeon before, right?”
“It’s not like that….”
“Then what is the basis for the judgment? This looks like a dungeon not even in the general hunter manual.”
Choi Ji-seong could not say that Yoo Da-ye judged that way. She’s always right, but she’s not good enough to justify it to her kids.
Han Cheol-woo glared at Yoo Seong-won and snared.
“If you have any complaints, just leave.”
“No, not complaints….”
“I don’t need cowards.”
“… ….”
Seongwon Yoo folded his arms and closed his mouth. The children moved on again.
A moment later, arrows rained down from the ceiling unexpectedly.
Swipe, swish.
Then Ymir stretched out her hand and created an invisible veil. The arrow hit the curtain and broke as if blocked by an iron plate. Seeing that, Choi Ji-seong admired her.
As expected, my sister was right.
Yudaye actively encouraged Ymir to participate. Yoo Da-ye’s words were never wrong, and Choi Ji-seong did as her Yu Da-ye said. Originally, she tried to involve Ymir, but in her words she acted more aggressively.
She said she must have Ymir to enter the dungeon.
Choi Ji-seong suddenly remembered what Yu Da-ye said to her.
From noble mtl dot com
Will I grow according to my sister’s words?
Daye Yu said that this is a dungeon that awakens her potential. So Choi Ji-seong called all her children who could be called her. If she’s right, they’ll all be incredibly strong.
* * *
It is a dungeon that did not exist in the original game. That’s why I didn’t know about the traps, organs, and special traps in the dungeon. However, my superhuman ability made it possible to respond to the unknown.
It’s an arrow!
I mimicked my transparent tentacles like an umbrella and wrapped them around like a shield to block the rain of arrows. The children were amazed.
“Wow, what is it?”
“Looks like a trap.”
“I almost got hurt.”
The children admired me while looking sideways at Choi Ji-seong. I responded to the trap Choi Ji-sung failed to react to. It seemed like there was a lot of meaning there.
You make an open comparison.
So we walked a long way. After a while there was a fork in the road. As I chinned, Mo Yeji used her foreknowledge ability as if she had been preparing. After a while she said, pointing in the direction to her right.
“This way, it’s the right way.”
Ha Yeon-si put on the brakes.
“Why do you think it is the right way?”
“Because it’s on the right.”
“How can I believe what you say?”
“It’s an ability.”
“What ability?”
Mo Yeji closed her mouth and raised her eyes. It’s not unusual to stare at Ha Yeon-si. Suddenly, the atmosphere became cold and a cold wind blew.
At that time, Yoo Seong-won blocked the two.
“Yeji always hit the crossroads like this.”
“So?”
Ha Yeon-shi’s eyebrows became even narrower.
“It is right to listen to Yeji.”
Ha Yeon-si caught her nose.
The look on his face seemed to say that you always take the side of Yeji.
Choi Ji-seong said then.
“This time, it’s right to move according to Yeji’s words.”
Yeonshi Ha asked.
“How can you be so sure?”
“I know the information about the dungeon.”
“You did your research beforehand.”
“No, I know it because I heard it from the person who provided the information about the dungeon.”
* * *
Choi Ji-seong heard the basic knowledge of dungeons from Yoo Daye in advance. So she knew how to attack the crossroads. She also knew about arrow traps, but she was slow to respond because she didn’t know how fast the arrows were. However, there is no reason to miss this crossroads because it does not take time to respond.
“Hmm. If so….”
Ha Yeon-shi took a step back. When Ymir saw that, she knew why Ha Yeon-si put the brakes on Mo Ye-ji’s behavior.
She challenged Mo Ye-ji to figure out her abilities.
She is curious. Even in this situation, she seems to be eager to gather information.
In a way, it’s great.
After a while, we passed a fork in the road, and this time a lake appeared. Ko Soo-young was approaching the lake, but Choi Ji-seong stopped him.
As he plucks a piece of moss nearby and throws it into the lake, air bubbles rise from the moss. It was an acidic lake.
After that, I passed a dagger dripping, bug-filled, or venom dripping trap. The party arrived at the door.
