Chapter 128 – Dungeon (3)
Moved Danjeon’s mana. Mana ran through her veins and circulated through her body. This time, mana settled not only on her arms, but also on other parts of her body.
Of course, there was a rejection response.
Except for her arms, she felt tearing pain in her legs, waist, and back.
He gritted it and endured it. I stopped strengthening my body only when I felt like my muscles would really tear if I continued.
I sent all the remaining mana in my veins to the battle. Nonetheless, except for her arm, other parts of her body were throbbing.
‘My muscles won’t accept it.’
The greater the amount of her muscles, the better the mana’s body strengthening efficiency. But the more muscle she has, the harder it is to put mana into her muscles.
My body belongs to the disciplined side, so it wasn’t easy to strengthen parts other than the arms.
I turned on the status window to check my status.

“Hmm…”
I drool while reading the status window.
As time passed without neglecting her training, her numbers rose.
It’s a problem because it climbs slowly.
In particular, the four-trained martial arts law was slow to achieve despite allocating the most time.
‘I can’t see the image of the wall blocking my way disappearing…’
Even if I jumped over that, my eyes would be wide open.
I sighed and took out the glass bottle Orca gave me. Blue powder shone in the glass bottle.
It is a fantastic mineral, Orhalcon.
‘What about this again?’
I knew a little bit about Orhalkon. It is a mineral that is almost legendary among adventurers. When I received it from Orca, I wondered if I could accept this precious thing. I was also genuinely happy.
For an adventurer, a good weapon is like a lifeline. However, after receiving it, a problem arose.
‘Is there anyone who can handle this?’
Even if you just wander around Kalita right now, you can easily see a blacksmith shop that sells boring equipment. Blacksmiths that sell decent stuff are rare. There are even fewer places that sell great stuff.
Marlton came to mind for a moment, but he shook his head. If he was skilled enough to touch a fantasy mineral, the captain’s guild’s containment itself would have been meaningless.
‘…But, just in case, let’s stop by next time.’
I got up from my chair. I didn’t intend to go to the smithy, but I was thinking of meeting Orca at the Adventure Hall.
“Seris, Kara. I’ll go out for a while.”
“Huh? Brother, where are you going?”
“I want to go to the adventure party for a while.”
“Are you adventurous? Why are you there?”
Seris put down the book she was reading with an uneasy look. It’s a wholesome romance novel, unlike anything Kara’s read.
“There is an ancient elven barrier. I’m going to ask Orca about that. I’ve cleared some of my debts, so I’ll accept it.”
At the mention of the name Orca, Seris’s eyes shook slightly.
“Then, I will go with you. Please wait for a moment.”
“Can’t you enter the Adventure Hall unless you’re an adventurer?”
“Yes…?”
Cersei’s expression was disappointing.
“Don’t worry. You will have nothing to worry about.”
I smiled at her and calmed her down. Her expression became subtle.
“Ah yes…”
“…Don’t feel sorry for yourself.”
He tugged at Celis’ cheek. The soft cheeks continued to grow.
“Ah, no, no… Ah, ah…”
She scolded her with her slurred speech. I smiled and kissed her on the forehead.
“I will be back.”
Went out to the front door. Then I remembered what she had forgotten and looked back.
“Eleven… Twelve…!”
I saw Ariel squatting with her hands clasped behind her head. The way her breasts swayed every time her hips went down was so lewd.
“This is an Ariel order. After 20 squats, take a break and do 20 sit-ups.”
As I increased her momentum, Ariel glared at me with her frowning eyes.
“Ten…Three…!!”
But she couldn’t complain because of her order to count only when she worked out. She only counts in a loud voice.
Ariel laughed at me and left the house.
…
Seris stared at the front door where the meteor left. She recalled the conversation she had with Yoosung earlier.
-I’m going to see Orca.
-Only adventurers can enter the Adventure Hall?
– There’s nothing to worry about.
The words he said were strangely transformed, raising Celis’ imagination. What will the two of you do when they meet? Should I really just ask and be done with it? Wouldn’t it just get hot during a conversation and do something like that?
Yuseong assured her that there would be nothing to worry about. However, Celis, who had read her vulgar language, knew. When she says there’s nothing to worry about, it always happens.
“Ugh…”
Her lower belly felt hot and her inner thighs itched.
Cerys confirmed that the meteor was not returning and went into her room. She locked the door and she pushed forward the bedside drawer. The book she had hidden on the floor was revealed.
She took it out
〈 My husband is cheating on me. I chase it.〉
It is a mystery story about a retired woman who chases after her husband’s affair.
In this novel, the courage to find traces of an affair without her husband’s knowledge and the heroine’s desperate emotions to pursue her husband’s affair are well shown.
When I found her trail, the heroine’s denial of her reality, yet imagining what might have happened here was the one point where I fell in love.
In addition, the small traces are gathered to complete a puzzle, and the heroine’s ever-changing emotions and her continuing agony are what Seris likes the most.
As her anguish deepened, memories of her husband came to her, and how much she loved her husband was revealed.
Ceris thought that perhaps at the end her heroine would forgive her husband. Because of that, she felt identified with the heroine and was able to immerse herself more in the novel.
Céris lay in her bed and began to read from where she had put her bookmark. Tucked between her crotch, she rubbed the blanket over her thighs.
* * *
Sitting in her chair in her office, Orca sighed and pressed her temples. Her head hurt just thinking about what had happened in the conference room earlier.
Haha! I never thought I would find a real man! Who are you? The man who passed through your strict eyes? Bring me sometime and introduce yourself.
“What about an introduction, no relationship whatsoever.”
No way…
Little by little, the strength drained from her frowning face. She stared at the desk with a blank face. Scenes from that day flashed through her mind.
The scene where Han Yoo-seong hugged two women whom she called her lovers.
‘…He was smiling.’
Orca, it was a smile she had never shown her before. For some reason, her heart thumped.
‘No, why should I feel this way because of him? What is that guy?’
I was upset and annoyed. Orca decided to stop thinking about her meteor and spend time on her elixir, which she hadn’t yet digested.
She closed her eyes and focused her consciousness on mana. Little by little, however, she lost her concentration and her expression drained of energy. An unpleasant thought came to her and he bit her lips.
-Smart
A knock broke the meaningless imagination.
Orca raised her voice in her annoyance.
“Who is this?”
“That’s me. Yuseong Han. May I come in?”
“What, what?”
Orca was startled and startled. She told me to rest for a while, what happened?
“I will go in.”
“Now, wait a minute!”
Orca stopped her meteor and looked around her head, touching her head.
‘Where did I put the mirror?’
She soon realized that there were no mirrors in her office. It’s because she got rid of it, saying it was only taking her place for nothing. She resented her past self and hurriedly tidied up her hair and clothes.
‘Is this enough?’
It was a pity that I couldn’t look because I didn’t have a mirror, but now I can’t help it.
She cleared her voice and she sang a meteor.
“Hmmmm, you can come in.”
After giving her permission, Yooseong came inside. He looked at the orca and bowed her head.
“Hello.”
“That, yes. Hi.”
“Have you had a good rest?”
“Yeah, it is. I had a good rest. You, you?”
“I also had a good rest.”
Orca dealing with Meteor was somewhat awkward. She couldn’t make eye contact with the meteor and her voice trembled. She blames it on her heart pounding just from being with him. The look on her face made her feel worse.
‘Why is this all of a sudden?! I’m sure it wasn’t like this until the other day…’
She was embarrassed, but she kept the conversation going.
“So? I must have told you to rest, but why did you come here?”
“Ah, that’s it. Didn’t Orca-sama owe me a debt the other day?”
“Debt? Oh, yes.”
“I wanted you to pay me back for that.”
Orca nodded her head willingly.
“Ok, fine. My ransom is high, but I’m in debt, so I have to help. What is it?”
“Do you know anything about barriers?”
“Barrier? I know. Why?”
Yuseong explained to Orca about the ancient elven ruins. After the explanation, Orca opened his eyes wide and looked at him.
“Is it really? I found an ancient elven temple, but there’s a barrier in the basement?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
Orca’s eyes lit up. It is also surprising that he found a hidden ancient elven temple. His desire to explore as a wizard grew rapidly.
“Could you help? Of course, we will distribute it.”
“Good. That barrier is a piece of cake for me… I’ll help you.”
“Thank you. Then three days later…”
“But there is one problem.”
“A problem?”
“Okay.”
Orca crossed his arms and nodded.
“Didn’t I say it was a week’s drive to the forest? Then it’s unreasonable to leave after three days. The adventure party has a schedule.”
“Any schedule?”
“Yes, the dungeon was discovered. My party ended up exploring there.”
“Ah, that’s right. So… Wait, did you just say it was a party?”
Yoosung asked as if he was correct in what he heard.
“Yes, my party. Of course, including you.”
Orca affirmed. Yoosung wiped his face with a dissatisfied expression.
“Do you really have to go?”
Orca narrowed her eyes.
“Why? Are you unhappy about going with me?”
“No, not like that. I just thought I had to leave Seris and Kara behind…”
“Ah…”
Orca was speechless. The expression of Yooseong, who laughed while cuddling with her lover, came to mind.
‘…Should I skip it this time?’
A thought arose in my mind. In fact, it wasn’t long before she suffered because of her work. It was right for her to let Yoosung fall if she wanted to.
But her heart ached as she imagined him missing and being with her lovers.
Yoosung’s sigh cut off his never-ending worries.
“When does the dungeon start?”
“It’s a week later…”
“All right. Let’s get it ready.”
Yoosung said with a bitter smile. Orca felt sorry, but deep inside she felt good.
“Then I’ll just go.”
“Huh..?”
Yoosung turned his back.
Burr, are you leaving already?
How long have you been here? Is it already simple? Orca felt sorry for her. She said anything to get hold of him.
“Wait a minute! Will you help me while you’re here? There’s a lot of paperwork to deal with. Can you do that much?”
“Yes? Can’t you see any papers?”
Her desk was spotlessly clean. It was thanks to her rushing through her work a while ago. Orca hastily made an excuse.
“Oh, I haven’t brought it yet. If you bring it, it will grow like a mountain.”
“…A mountain?”
“Yes, a mountain! Maybe I will have to work overtime. No, you have to do it unconditionally?”
Um, um Orca nodded her head. Inside, she was excited at the thought that she would be able to enjoy tea time after a long time.
“I’m going to go get the papers now, so you wait here…”
“Sorry. It looks like it will be difficult today.”
“…Huh? What are you saying…?”
“It seems difficult to help today. I am a bit tired.”
“No, how long has it been since morning… Huh? Han Yuseong? Hey!”
Yuseong ignored Orca’s cry and came out of her office.
Bang. The door is closed.
Orca stared blankly at the closed door.
“…Did you really go?”
Dump. She sat helplessly in her chair.
