Chapter 38. Dungeons Combined (2)

It was like two dungeons combined.

It seemed that the field-type dungeon that was still generating around this dungeon was swallowed up by the completion of the scenario-type dungeon. This doesn’t happen very often, but it does happen occasionally, so it wasn’t very surprising. However, this was probably the first time this has happened in Korea.

That being said, I may be able to get the skills that Oh Kwon-hyuk had in this dungeon.

A large hand grabbed my shoulder as I staggered for a moment at the cog wheel hit by my toe.

“…….”

And once I slapped the hand away, I didn’t know what to say. I felt a stinging gaze from behind, but I didn’t dare look back.

Oh Kwon-hyuk started a fight with me the first time he saw me, but why was he catching me this time?

He was the same age as Lee Myung-won, who is 10 years older than me, so it’s a bit ambiguous to use the word “this child” on him. Though it didn’t mean that I was relieved.

“Shh.”

Lee Myung-won lowered his body and whispered. I couldn’t keep my mouth closed as I watched things coming out of the large bushes. I raised my staff reflexively.

Leopards, whose corners of their mouths were torn apart, had their teeth clearly exposed on their smiling faces, and their large charred bodies with large green vines roared and surrounded us.

The bright, human-like red eyes that were like magma gave me goosebumps.

However, I heard the voices of Kim Yong-tae and Yoo Jin-woo from behind me, ignoring Lee Myung-won’s command to stay quiet.

“Ack! It’s a leopard! Mo-monster!”

“It’s a monster!”

[CH.#4w01/One Who Is More Dazzling Than The Sun] : I already know.

[CH.#4w01/The One Who Is More Dazzling Than The Sun] : You call this the so-called sweet potato section, right?

I couldn’t even swear at him to shut up in the appearing chat windows, but I ducked at the monster rushing at me. I hit the monster’s belly with the tip of my staff. There was a yelp, and then the sound of battle broke out from all sides.

Countless golden arrows poured down. It was Lee Myung-won’s skill. An arrow shot down the monster who ran to bite my leg. In response, I relentlessly smashed the monster’s head and pulled the screaming Yoo Jin-woo’s neck back, causing him to fall down.

“Euaak!”

“Shut up!”

The most impressive among them was the way Oh Kwon-hyuk fought. He grabbed the nape of the running monster, put strength into his grip, and used his skill. His hands became blotched with ebony, and the black energy gradually spread to the monster, as it collapsed into dust. Every time I saw that scene as he fought, I became dazed. If Oh Kwon-hyuk used that skill when he was grabbing onto me earlier, I would have probably….

Oh Kwon-hyuk, who threw away the monster turning to dust with his sharp eyes, suddenly looked at me and strode towards me. I flinched and took a step backwards, as he ran at me all at once.

He grabbed the nape of the monster’s neck rushing towards me and threw it away.

“Look straight forward.”

An inhumane voice came out of his mouth. It sounded like a beast’s. A chat window popped up before I could even answer him.

[CH.#4ww01/One Who Guides The Dead] : Idiot.

[CH.#4w01/One Who Guides The Dead] : He should’ve killed him.

[CH.#4w01/One Who Guides The Dead] : Just like that.

And without even trying to recognize it, I could see that I was the one who should have been killed.

[CH.#4w01/One Who Is More Dazzling Than The Sun] : What did you just say to my child?

Why am I your child?

[CH.#4w01/One Who Guides The Dead] : A human. And constellation.

[CH.#4w01/One Who Guides The Dead] : No. A mysterious creature.

[CH.#4ww01/One Who Guides The Dead]: Should have died.

[CH.#4w01/One Who Guides The Dead] : To death. And be guided.

[CH.#4w01/One Who Is More Dazzling Than The Sun] : He is not some kind of toy to play with.

[CH.#4ww01/One Who Knows The Fall]: Where do you keep learning such words?

[CH.#4w0/One Who Knows The Fall] : And I have no idea why you’re doing this to me?

[CH.#4ww01/One Who Guides The Dead] : Your existence goes against life.

[CH.#4ww01/One Who Guides The Dead]: What are you?

[CH.#4w01/One Who Guides The Dead] : Tell me who you are. You. Otherwise.

[CH.#4ww01/The One Who Guides The Dead] : To death. I will guide you.

Why are all constellations like this? I sent a vowel instead of an answer.

[CH.#4w0/One Who Knows The Fall] : O

[CH.#4ww01/One Who Guides The Dead] : ?

[CH.#4ww01/One Who Guides The Dead] : What does that mean?

[CH.#4ww01/One Who Guides The Dead] : Correctly. Talk.

[CH.#4ww01/The One Who Is More Dazzling Than The Sun] : He really is a lot of different things.
