Fell in the Highest Difficulty Dungeon 39

Chapter 39 – District 1 (T2) (12)

8. Zone 1 (2 tracks) (12)

‘It really hurts like I’m going to turn around.’

I blinked. My eyelids seemed to blink, but it was pitch black, so I couldn’t tell if they were open or closed. So I tried moving her limbs. It seemed that the limbs were also moving, but it was useless because I couldn’t see them.

‘First… Is it near death?’

Right before this happened, she had confirmed the message that she had entered near death.

‘Ah. What. It makes no sense.’

Is it the lack of voice or the lack of hearing? The more I thought about it, the more likely it was both.

‘Would Shay have experienced the same thing as me now?’

There was nothing particularly special about near death, except that it was painful, that all five senses were messed up, and that everything was pitch black.

‘I wonder if the near-death experience I’ve only heard about is like this.’

The thought was insane. In such a situation, it was abnormal in itself to think clearly without going crazy.

I am thinking therefore I am existing.

According to the famous philosopher man, I think it’s right to exist rather than thinking hard in real time. The body is not functioning properly…

Is this the boundary of death?

All I could do was to think, so my thoughts gradually went tail after tail. The first thing that came to my mind was Kaya and Shay, starting with the track record that made me like this. You can’t give orders now that I’m doing this, what are you doing without me. Shay’s mentality was drastically damaged when she entered the brink of death, so maybe they lost their mentality because of me for no reason.

Thoughts gradually continued in reverse chronological order.

Kaya who hit a home run in a spirited way, what happened with Shay at the resting place, what happened to a nightmare worthy of being truly terrifying in the box room of fear, and how coolly he cut off the head of the fearless warrior he met again…

Shay’s joining, almost dying with Shay in the dungeon.

Trying to take care of Kaya’s mentality, but somehow they became one.

The two of them worked hard in the dungeon to earn money.

Being kicked out by forced exile in the first round of this dungeon, 1-3.

The first time Kaya was selected at the Hero Support Center.

And.

‘He was making an expression like a fucking idiot.’

From being possessed for the first time to this world, to being bruised and being beaten up by a general merchandise vendor.

My brief life in Salem and Dungeon was more dense and driven than at any other time in my life.

‘The process of desperately trying to return to Earth makes me feel like I exist as myself.’

It was ironic.

If you clear the dungeon and go back to that reward, you’ll eat, sleep, and rot in the corner of the room while terrorizing for a longer time. Chicken is good, pizza is good, fries are good, hamburgers are good, and women who sometimes get tired of it are used as side dishes to quench their cravings. You can sleep comfortably without anyone noticing. No threat.

But.

On Earth, I was but a number of carbon dioxide generators1. It was just an existence that couldn’t die. My contribution to society was nothing other than paying a small amount to the landlord and various delivery restaurants. Extremely speaking, it was on the verge of becoming a burden of society, garbage.

But how was it here?

It’s not completely, but thanks to me, there is a life that has overcome trauma to some extent. With just one word from me, I will bravely attack the enemy. I, who was a useless existence, became someone’s benefactor and someone’s leader.

Although it is compulsory, it burns its body and mind for its goal. He didn’t hesitate to pick up an ax he’d never held in his life and separate the monster’s bones and flesh.

‘So? What about that?’

I put on some fucking grandiose stuff, but there really wasn’t anything I could claim to be my achievement here either. He was just a level 1 hero who hadn’t even broken through the 1st zone yet. It wasn’t even 1-10, but from 1-6, I was wandering between life and death. My skills were insignificant while mentioning that I was the final grade and 1st tier as the standard for selecting fellow warriors.

‘Still.’

I was sure.

With Kaya and Shay, who have become precious to me, and the 4th hero who will join me someday.

I felt like I could find meaning in my life. It seemed that something called achievement could happen in my life. And in my life, it seemed that a friend or more precious being could arise.

‘So?’

Want to live I want to live like crazy. Live, get up By smashing the head of the baby that made me like this, smashing and smashing again. I want to smash it to the end of the dungeon. Without exception, even the longest fears that still haunt me.

‘Let’s move.’

Who can save me from this place? Shay didn’t wake up until the battle was over.

‘Let’s move. Please! Move!’

You can’t stay still though.

I am…

Because he is the leader who leads them.

**

“…”

“…”

The world is blurry and fragmented

The moment her captain, Hendrick, fell bleeding.

Kaya’s world was also falling apart.

“Sister! Captain, you’re still alive!”

“…”

“Sister! Sister Kaya!”

Live… Do you have?

“Calm down!!! The captain is not dead yet!!!”

Aww-!

My cheeks are tingling. Hot. Sick.

“The battle isn’t over yet! But why is it that the world has already perished, and someone is despairing on their own! Does anyone know that I’m not worried about the captain? Stand up! Stand up!! Damn it, wake up! Kaya Epenzel!!!”

Aww-!

It tasted like blood. There will be blood

My world, my fate, is shedding hundreds of times more blood out of my body than the blood from my mouth.

Ah. I need to heal.

Even if I sacrifice my body…

“You’ve completely lost your taste… !”

Why, why can’t it heal?

Shay.

Why. Are you holding the sword without healing the captain? The captain is lying down as if to die, so why are you approaching that monster instead of beside him?

Don’t look at me like that. I am perfectly normal now. Isn’t the most important thing to save the captain somehow?

Miss Laella.

Didn’t Raella give you a revelation? Didn’t you say that my destiny is here? But does my destiny already end here? Before you even start to bloom properly, before you even go deep into it.

Did my desire to have a deeper relationship with the captain come to this because I was overflowing with resentment?

I am afraid to die. I endured those hard times as a child because I was afraid. But if either the captain or I must die, I’d rather die. If I can save the captain with my blood and flesh, I will give it to you. Unlike me, the captain is truly a ‘hero’ who will reach the end of the dungeon. Someone can replace me even if I don’t have one, but no one can replace the captain…

So, dear Laella. Please forgive her daughter for your foolishness. And give strength to the captain I trust and follow.

I am prepared to pay any price.

Please, hopefully.

With this worthless body, I sincerely hope that the warrior who will shine the brightest in this world can be restored even a little…

“… Ka, hey.”

“… Ah?”

“Not me… That bastard…”

“AA AA AA… !”

Kaya’s fragmented world.

“Joe, lose… !”

Back to normal

“Yes… ! Leader… !”

**

[Eugene has entered near death.]
[All of Eugene’s values ​​decrease by 33%.]
[Eugene will die if he receives damage while in the state of near death.]
[The warriors witness a moment of great despair and inescapable fear.]
[Shay Mentality – 24]
[Kaya Mentality – 33]

[Eugene’s turn has passed.]

[Judgement of Justice]
[Shay deals 4 damage to a Dread Warrior.]
[Remaining HP 2/72]
[The Dread Warrior refuses to judge.]
[The warrior of fear resists the status ‘stun’.]

As soon as I managed to come to my senses, a battle message filled a corner of my field of vision. And before he could confirm everything, Kaya, whose pupils had died, witnessed the direction of the mace pointing at him, and opened his mouth without going through her brain.

I think she was supposed to heal me by hurting herself with the ‘battle nun’s penance’. My blood was -3, and if Kaya gets a turn with a heal, it’s his turn again. The correct answer was to crush it with a mace. Are you in a panic, or are you frightened by a failed attack the previous turn?

Still, the moment I ordered him to be George, Kaya no doubt raised the mace again.

Kaya looked back at me with every step she took. It seemed to check whether I was there, whether my eyes were open, or whether I was screeching and searching because of a passing wind. I even stopped Shay from reaching me.

Tears like waterfalls, faces like ice, voices like demons.

[Everything according to God’s will]
[Kaya deals 6 damage to the Dread Warrior.]
[Remaining HP -5/72]
[The fear warrior has died.]
[Reward: 14 gold, double-edged ax of fear, holy water]

“Die. Die. Die.”

Dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying Dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying—

Kaya’s gruesome strokes with the mace came to an end only when the dread warrior’s corpse was dismembered beyond recognition.

“Captain! Do you think you can move?”

“Leader!!”

“Whoa. For now, here, bring me something to eat.”

Shay, who had been rolling her feet while watching Kaya’s notice, followed Kaya next to me and looked at me worriedly. Kaya is…

‘I think the taste is still gone.’

Her mental state also seemed quite serious, but my body was more urgent right now.

‘Since the battle is over, I can’t get healed.’

My current health is -3. He was alive thanks to the special state of near death, and originally had physical strength that could not exist. In order to advance without dying, I had to force myself to recover by eating food here.

Until at least 1.

“Food, a little more, bring it… This room, every nook and cranny, is there anything to salvage, search, try…”

“Yes… !”

As Shay searches, Kaya comes with her entire bag and spills her entire rations on her floor. She then picked up one of the things she had been rolling around and opened it.

‘Now, what are you doing… ?’

It is said that he miraculously woke up on his own, but it is a situation where clear judgment is not good. I had neither the strength to speak nor the power to argue. Eventually, as Kaya’s face got closer, I finally understood her intentions.

“Card… Ugh!”

Chuuuuu-

Kaya kissed her without the slightest bit of shame or hesitation, and she put it in my mouth, trying to give away what she was chewing on. Just like a mother bird does to a baby bird.

I was taken aback, but my mouth was closed and my body was weak. In the end, I had no choice but to accept and eat whatever she gave me.

‘Is this the acceptance plane that I’ve only seen in words…’

My body is going to turn around, but the situation is fucking serious, so I felt strange because I was relaxed. Of course, when blood came out of her mouth full of blood, I was frightened and tried to stop Kaya somehow, but instead of taking it out, she sucked out all of her blood and chewed it again and handed over the food.

It was only after he ate three servings like a baby bird that his physical strength exceeded zero.

“… Thank you. You’ve been through a lot.”

… Little bit

Kaya slowly licked her own tongue instead of answering her. She then snuggled up next to me, staring at me. For some reason, it was burdensome to face me directly, so I turned my gaze to the log.

[Mentality]
Shay: -70
Kaya: -74
Eugene: -60

[Health]
Shay: 17/17
Kaya: 13/14
Eugene: 2/15

‘It’s broken.’

The situation that the mentality that I managed at best became a rag again. Still, I smiled.

“You have to do it.”

I said to Kaya and Shay, who were still making serious faces.

“Really. It’s worth it. So don’t worry.”

“Captain…”

“Don’t you believe me?”

Kaya and Shay shook their heads vigorously.

“Then trust me, just like before. And follow me Then, I will wake up at any time, look ahead, and show you the way.”

Tuk-tuk- I got up from my seat and brushed my butt.

Then he pointed to exits 1-6.

“Let’s go.”

The sound of footsteps soon tripled.
