After a few words of conversation, Grayson entered the tent first.
Considering the time of 11 p.m., it would be better for him to go to bed now. However, Joa still remained by Hajun’s side.
Well, wanting to say something, Hajun looked at Joa and asked.
“Aren’t you sleeping?”
“If I think about tomorrow, I would like to go to sleep, but I can’t sleep well. Maybe I’m nervous on the inside, too.”
After all, tomorrow could be her last, so she’ll have no choice but to be nervous.
According to her original wisdom, she will surely die in the dungeon raid tomorrow.
“So, what did you see?”
“Oh, you are talking about the future.”
“Yes.”
Hajun nodded his head.
What the heck did she see that she trusted me and brought me here… … .
And Joa calmly answered Ha-jun’s question.
“I can’t tell you in the first place. Because the future may change. But I think if it’s Irregular-sama, you’ll be fine.”
“Am I okay?”
“yes. To be honest, it’s my first time doing something like this, so I’m a little surprised.”
It was Joa Elliot who slowly opened her eyes with those words.
Her purple eyes stared at Hajun, and she continued.
“Also… … , Irregular-sama has only one path.”
“… … ?”
At those words, it was Hajun who looked at Joa with a puzzled face.
There’s only one way… … , what do you mean?
“What are you talking about?”
“The future I can see with my own eyes is diverse. Exactly the number of cases. What kind of actions change the future, which leads to various crossroads. But Irregular-sama only sees one way.”
One definite future.
There is only one way for him.
A fixed and unchanging future.
So she said frankly, confident that telling this fact wouldn’t change.
“I am going to entrust my life to you. At least in your future I was alive.”
“… … .”
“The future of death is ‘determined’. Originally, it would never change. But your existence changed my future.”
The moment the option of death arises, the end of the various options all turn into death.
In other words, it meant that all futures were dyed with death.
But if you are alone with him, the future of death disappears altogether.
So Joa Elliott decided to give her life to him.
“So what did you see in the dungeon?”
At that, Joa slowly closed her eyes again.
When she predicted her own death in the past, she remembered the situation at that time and opened her mouth.
“Originally, I sacrificed my life to block the dungeon break.”
An unimaginable number of beasts.
There, leaving only the raiders alive, he was going to lose his life by blocking the dungeon break.
“I was recognized for my strength by the ‘being’ there. In a way, it must be said that he suffered an honorable death?”
“What is in that dungeon?”
“There are huge beings that we humans cannot even imagine. Of course, I couldn’t tell this future to others. Because the future can change. But, one thing.”
She thought of the future that would happen to Ha-jun, not her own.
The figure of a boy holding a golden hammer in the center of the place where countless demons are infested.
“You too will be recognized by that ‘being’. That is the future I see.”
* * *
The next morning at 6 am.
Ha-jun stopped time while the raiders were waking up, took out a sleeping bag he had in his inventory, and fell asleep. Of course, there is a disadvantage that objects used in a stationary world cannot be used in a world where the stationary is released, but the items taken out of the inventory are unlocked, so Ha-jun was able to sleep comfortably.
After waking up from a deep sleep, I released the stop and started moving again.
This time, with Violet’s help, he headed to the dungeon with fly magic, and about 5 hours passed like that?
When Ha-jun, who was slowly getting tired, yawned, he was finally able to reach his destination.
“Yes, that’s right.”
He pointed to a huge cave at the destination where Aiden had arrived.
It was a cave with a huge entrance that was over 20 meters in diameter.
Seeing that cave, Ha-jun was even more puzzled.
Do dogs and beasts usually make their habitat in such a large cave?
“Come on, let’s get ready now.”
Everyone nodded at Grayson’s words.
Violet landed everyone through the bushes a little far from the dungeon, and as soon as they landed on the floor, they immediately started preparing for the dungeon attack.
After all preparations were completed, they immediately entered the dungeon.
* * *
The way to block the break in the Beast Dungeon was simple.
It was a way to either enter the dungeon and reduce the number of beasts inhabiting there by half to prevent the break at the beginning, or to completely attack the dungeon and get rid of the dungeon.
And the method chosen for this raid was the latter.
Considering the boss monster with the ability to lead the beast along with unexpected events, it would be better to completely kill the boss monster and eliminate the dungeon itself.
“Then please.”
“Yes.”
At Grayson’s words, Hajun nodded and stood in the vanguard.
First of all, Joa Elliot and Ha-Jun were in the vanguard, and the tank Grayson protected Aiden and Violet in the rear.
It is said that he chose this method because Cho-in, who was in charge of the vanguard, was Jo-ah and Ha-jun in a simple way.
What was surprising here was Joa.
To be honest, I didn’t know Ha-jun as I had never seen her in the game, but contrary to her appearance, she was a hero who used force.
‘I thought I was going to use magic… … .’
When I saw that slender arm, I honestly thought he would use magic, but he seems to be a hero who uses power unexpectedly. The Noble Phantasm he was holding as a weapon was also a mace.
Well, in the first place, the ranking of 5th in the world is not a ranking that can be said simply by knowing the future.
“Well then, let’s go.”
Everyone nodded at Joa’s words.
So Joa and Hajun took the lead and moved forward.
Inside the dungeon full of moist air.
After moving forward for a few minutes, Grayson felt something strange and opened his mouth.
“Something is strange. It doesn’t look like a dungeon where there is going to be a break at all.”
It was the words of Grayson, the tank in the raid.
First of all, the initial phenomenon of the dungeon break was that the magic power inside the dungeon suddenly increased like a runaway. The cause of the phenomenon is a sudden increase in the number of beasts living inside, but looking around, the number of beasts did not seem to have increased.
Of course, Ha-jun doesn’t feel the magic, but if Grayson’s words were true, it was certainly strange. Of course, this is not to say that there are no witches at all.
As soon as Grayson finished speaking, the beasts blocked the way ahead.
They were 5 Heilangs, each of which was about 3 meters in size.
“Then I’ll leave you with the rearguard, Grayson.”
“Yes. Leave it to me.”
With those words, Joa moved quickly.
The leisurely forward movement disappeared in an instant.
Joa, who just moved at an invisible speed, stood in front of the Heukrangs and swung her mace horizontally. And the head of one of the Heilangs hit by the mace exploded, and the Mace did not slow down as it was, but also exploded the head of the other Heilang next to it. Joa killed two Heukrang in an instant.
At the same time, Aiden, Violet and Grayson, who were in the rear, also moved.
One of the Heilangs turned big and rushed to their rear, and Grayson smashed it back with his huge shield he was holding.
Afterwards, Aiden and Violet’s arrows and magic hit the remaining two animals directly, and the first battle was successfully completed.
Ha-jun didn’t even use his hands.
‘It’s comfortable… … .’
You were good at guarding yourself, too.
Judging by their appearance, it looks like they slept well and are in perfect condition.
However, I didn’t mean to just take a look.
I just remembered the former quest I had forgotten.
[Ex-Quest]

After that, about an hour had passed since I entered the dungeon.
Every time we moved forward, a few beasts appeared and blocked the way ahead, and the raiding party was proceeding with the attack by defeating the beasts with ease.
“… … Is it a cliff?”
“… … .”
The raid squad stopped for the first time.
I thought they had reached the end of the dungeon, but what awaited them was a cliff facing downwards.
“What should I do?”
“… … .”
Grayson asked Joa.
Joa looked down at the cliff for a moment and thought about something, then slowly opened her mouth.
“Go down. I think there must be more roads down here.”
At Joa’s words, the attacking crew all agreed and nodded their heads.
Even the cliff of the cliff is not deep enough to see the bottom clearly.
So, with Violet’s flying magic, he slowly descended down the cliff, and as Joa said, there was another way.
However, the problem is that there are so many magical beasts that cannot be compared with before.
– Crumple!!
– Crumple!!
Judging by the public eye, at least 50 Beasts were surrounding them.
Well, there was something strange about it.
The number of beasts that occasionally popped out from above was too small to be considered a break-plan dungeon.
– Whoa!!
But that was only the beginning.
One of those beasts suddenly sounded a howling, and the surrounding beasts began to howl and gradually increase.
“I was surrounded!”
“under… … , now I feel like I’m attacking the dungeon scheduled to break.”
“It was strange. Because the number of demons above was too small.”
Of course, the raid team looked tense, but it was still relaxed.
They were also heroes at the top.

Most of all, it was because he completely trusted Ha-jun and Jo-ah, who were at the vanguard.
“Irregular, I’ll take the back, so can you take the front?”
“It is.”
Hajun nodded his head.
Contrary to the situation above, he was surrounded by numerous magical beasts, so it was time to change his position.
“Look out. A stronger demon is watching behind them.”
Ha-jun looked at the back of the group surrounding him.
At a glance, I could see several of them that were bigger than normal beasts.
Of course, it doesn’t really matter much.
‘Count the number of times, Pilaten.’
– That’s right.
With those words, Ha-jun raised the hammer again, and it was then that the situation happened.
-Cheer, Kreer?!
– Kiying!!
– Wow! Wow!
The mood of these guys has changed.
To be precise, a few, but not all, of the Beasts looked back at Hajun’s Maharaj and backed away.
“… … ?”
Of course, up to this point, thinking that it was because of his mood, Ha-jun approached them with Maharaj.
And the change in that one behavior was huge.
– Whoa!!!
-Creep!!
widely! widely! widely!
Some of the surrounding beasts, including the huge beast at the back of the group, saw Hajun’s hammer and started running away.
It’s like looking at a hammer and getting scared.
Of course, some of them still remain and show hostility to the party, but the situation itself was strange. Half of the beasts who saw Hajun’s Maharaj ran away.
“… … What happened?”
“Did Irregular-sama do this too?”
“… … ?”
Hajun didn’t answer that.
Because he himself didn’t know what had happened.
Then Pilaten understood the situation and opened his mouth.
-Right.
‘… … what?’
– These guys. They are the ones who know the existence of Maharaj.
