Chapter 132 – Dungeon (7)
“Gyaul~!”
Roum stretched himself and woke up. When he lowered his head, he saw his cute babies sleeping on his waist. He petted the cubs with a happy face and raised them up.
– Gyaul, Gyaul.
As he came out of the hut, other neighbors greeted him. Roum also waved his hand and headed for the well in the center of the residence.
After inserting the gourd and pulling the string, the water-filled gourd came up. Loom put it in his bucket. It seems that if I add two or three more times, it will all be filled.
– Gyaul Gyaul.
– Gyaul.
Neighbors who had come out of the huts around the well watched and whispered. It felt like I was being sarcastic looking at him, so I felt bad.
“Gyaul, Gyaul.”
Even though he was pushed out of the competition, he pretended to be proud that the hut was close to the well. If it wasn’t for him, he would have died somewhere.
Roum muttered as he drew water. The bucket full of water was too heavy for Room to lift alone. However, he vigorously lifted the bucket, thinking of his pup who would be in his house. It was time for him to return home.
– Gyaul Gyaul!!
Screams came from the side of his house. Something is shining brightly.
Having a bad feeling, Roum threw his water bottle and ran home. My bad hunch came true.
Where Loom arrived, there were humans.
-@#$!@$@$@
-##@@!#@!$@!
Humans shouted incomprehensible words and broke into the residence of the looms. The floor was covered with the bodies of Looms.
Roum was overcome with fear. I came here to avoid the competition between my natural enemies and my own people, but the biggest natural enemy, humans, came in…
“Gya, Gyaul..!”
Suddenly, I thought of the puppies at home. Roum hurriedly ran to his hut. Fortunately, there were no traces of humans as if they hadn’t come this far. When he went inside the hut, he saw the cubs rubbing their eyes with dreamy faces.
Thank god. Loom was relieved and stroked his chest.
“Gyaul Gyaul?”
The eldest asked with a sleepy face, “Why is this?” Anyway, I’m very carefree because I don’t think he looks like my mother. Loom patted the pups on the back to wake them up.
“Gyaul!”
He shouted that now is not the time for this, and he grabbed the cubs by the wrists. He came out of the hut to escape.
A man stood in front of the hut.
“It remains here too.”
“Gayul?!”
Oddly enough, I could understand what humans were saying. I was surprised for a moment, but when I saw the corpses of the looms on the floor, my complexion turned pale. I felt like I was getting smaller by the cold eyes of humans.
Oh, that’s it.
A feeling of impotence rose as he sensed his inevitable death.
“Gya, gyaul…”
I felt something small leaning against my back. Roum, his cubs trembled and leaned on their father’s back.
There was determination in Rom’s drooping eyes. I made up my mind and shouted at my cubs.
“Gyaul, Gyaul!”
“Gyaul?! Gyaul, Gyaul!”
“Gyaul!!”
They were crying and shaking their heads, but when he shouted, they clenched their teeth and turned their backs.
Roum put his emotions behind and stared at the enemy in front of him.
For some reason, the human gaze was not directed at him. With shaking eyes, I looked at Roum’s offspring, which ran away. Roum couldn’t figure out why, but he thought it was good.
Gathering the spirit in his right hand, he touched the floor. A trident was made that reached the waist of a man, as tall as Roum.
Loom picked up his trident and held it with both of his hands. He stabbed straight at the human. When he saw the bewildered expression on the human face, he thought, ‘It’s done!’
-Rumble!
My eyes flashed with the sound of thunder. His body shuddered and the smell of burnt stung his nostrils. The wobbly legs couldn’t do their job, and Roum collapsed to the floor.
-$@#@!#!!!!
Through her narrowed eyes, she could see a female human scolding the bruised human. Roum smiled as he thought it was like seeing himself and his wife when they were young.
The eyelids are heavy.
Roum closed his heavy eyelids and thought of his children who had fled.
The last gift left by her wife.
Will it be all right? Probably, it will be all right. Because they resembled her wild wife more than she did.
Loum believed that and closed his eyes.
Consciousness is gone.

-Are you serious about moving hospitals?
– Honey, calm down and listen to me. The facilities there are just as good as here. I’ve had several consultations and they’ve all been kind…
– What if you’re kind? My skills are failing! You know that there are a lot of bad rumors out there, right?
A six-person room crowded with patients and visitors. Mother and father had a conversation. His voice, which had been a whisper, gradually became harsh and ferocious.
– Are you insane? Are you going to leave our child somewhere like that?
-Do you know that I want to say something like this too? I mean, I’m running out of money right now. Please see reality, reality! It’s far better to be hospitalized there than to be kicked out of the hospital!
Eventually the conversation turned to accusations. His voice, which grew louder, did not fade even with the stinging glances of the people around him.
All I could do in that situation was to shut myself up in a blanket and cover my ears.
-Me, you two. There are other patients, so could you talk quietly?
The quarrel ended only when the nurse intervened.
– Whoa…
I could hear my father’s deep sigh and the sound of distant footsteps. I could feel my mother’s hand on my back covered with the blanket.
“Son, are you awake? Was it too noisy? I’m sorry mom.”
Her voice did not have the strength it used to.
No, I’m more sorry.
* * *
Eyes open. In the dark tent, Seris and Kara, who were sleeping on either side, caught my eye.
‘Is it bedtime yet?’
It was inside the dungeon, so I couldn’t tell whether it was day or night. I opened the tent slightly to check outside. There was no one outside except the adventurers standing guard.
It seems that it is still bedtime.
I squeezed between Seris and Kara again. I closed my eyes and tried to fall asleep. But the stuffy feeling in my chest interrupted my sleep.
“What the hell were you dreaming about…”
It must have been a very fucking dream if the afterglow still lingers.
‘Is it because of the bipedal lizard I saw during the day?’
To be precise, the guy who was willing to sacrifice himself for his offspring. After seeing that, I was bruised for a while, and then I was cursed at by Orca.
He clicked his tongue briefly and came out of the tent.
It seemed that I should take a walk to relieve this disturbing feeling.
‘Huh?’
While taking a walk, I saw a familiar figure in the corner. Judging by the short red hair and long height, it was Belita. Beside her was a man wrapped around her body in a black cloth. He seemed to be a man, judging from his broad back, but the man left shortly afterwards.
‘Who is it?’
Out of curiosity, I approached Belita.
“Ah, you’re chasing me all the way here, damn it.”
“Are you my boyfriend?”
“Ok? Whoa, fuck!”
Startled, Belita swung her fist. She turned her head and dodged.
“I told you to fix your temper that starts with that fist.”
“If you suddenly put your face in, everyone will do that, you bastard. Please pretend to be popular.”
“It’s a habit. Can’t fix Before that, who was that man? Boy friend?”
Belita’s face frowned.
“You sound like a boyfriend. Do you want to go back?”
“What is it, isn’t it? Kim Sae-ne.”
“Fuck to carve.”
Belita rummaged through her bosom and she took out a short pipe.
“Then who are you?”
“You don’t have to know.”
She says and inserts her index finger into her pipe. Chi profit. I heard the burning of tobacco leaves. She took a deep breath in her cigarette and exhaled it. White smoke came out softly.
“It’s always amazing to see.”
“What?”
“That cigarette. Just put her finger in and it catches fire. Is it a magic tool?”
“…What is it?”
Belita stood with a slightly confused expression on her face and took another sip. I watched it blankly and asked.
“How about smoking it? I heard it feels like her chest is being pierced, is it really?”
“Any? But why? Do you want to try?”
“Uh. Give me Let’s do it just once.”
“Really?”
Belita looked a little surprised and handed her a cigarette. I put it in her mouth and inhaled. Smoke from her cigarette penetrated her throat and stung her lungs.
“Kek! Cool cool…!”
My throat was sore because of the cigarette smoke. She quit smoking her pipe and coughed. Belita let out a laugh.
“Kuluk kuluk… Hey Mr. Lee… Being cool only stings your throat.”
“At first, everything is like that. Shut up and give me a cigarette.”
Belita snatched her pipe out of my hands as if robbing it. She put it in her mouth and inhaled, making her look relaxed.
Suddenly, a joke came up.
“Hey, what if I bite it in my mouth without wiping it?”
“? What?”
“Cigarette. If you bite without wiping it, that’s an indirect kiss… Billion!”
I grabbed my side at the sudden pain.
“Anyway, I’m fucking.”
Belita shook her fist.
“Can’t you even joke?”
“Don’t joke like that.”
Belita raised her middle finger.
What a funny kid anyway.

It’s been about two days since she came to the crossroads. When we almost ran out of food and wondered, ‘Should we go back to the camp?’, We arrived at what was supposed to be the last room in the dungeon.
The room was guarded by a bull-headed monster, the Minotaur, and battle was unavoidable.
“Me, Belita, Joey and Andrew will take over the front! You guys take his side!”
Patrick came out and shouted to Sister Ceris. A large ax was swung in his face. Patrick ducked his head and narrowly avoided it.
“Mister! This bastard!”
Belita cuts off the Minotaur’s leg with her sword. However, because of her tough hide, she couldn’t cut deeply, and she only exalted the Minotaur.
– Conspiracy oh oh !!!
The Minotaur took his ax with both hands and cut it horizontally. It was an attack with the intention of cutting four people in half.
“Where are you!”
That attack was blocked by Seris. It was such a powerful blow that her shield slightly distorted, and she fell to her side. It’s a fatal gap. However, the Minotaur also showed a gap.
“Good job Seris!”
I threw two daggers and ran after them. The dagger was thrust right into the eye of the Minotaur. The Minotaur grabbed his face with his right hand and kicked him backwards.
Taking advantage of that opportunity, I thrust a dagger into his chest. I pushed the guy’s chest with my foot and fell.
“Eight!”
Kara slid past the Minotaur’s crotch. Her blood dripped from Kara’s sword, which she held up.
– Conspiracy ohhh!!!
It seemed that the cut to the genitals hurt more than the dagger stuck in the eye. The Minotaur let out a miserable cry rather than a loud kick.
“Shut up!”
When Orca finished her spell, the lightning that shimmered beside her also calmed down. Orca extended her index finger toward the Minotaur.
“Lightning arrow!”
Kurleung! The sight flashed with the sound of thick thunder. A round hole was pierced in the Minotaur’s chest.
-Um… Mo…
The Minotaur stared with bewildered eyes at the hole in his chest. Soon he collapsed powerlessly.
After defeating the boss like that, we searched the boss’s room. After searching hard, I was able to find another room hidden in the room.
The hidden room was filled with useful-looking treasures.
We cheered and took our treasures. I told Orca while packing up my treasure.
“Your magic power has gotten better.”
“It’s thanks to the elixir I took last time. Regarding lightning magic, not only the power but also the control, and the amount of mana that can be handled at once have improved overall.”
“Congratulations. It’s worth the hard work there.”
“Well, that’s right… Hmmmm, that… You weren’t as hard as I was at the time, but you worked hard, right? In return, the new cake shop…”
“Wait.”
“Yes? Oh, do you hate buying cakes?”
“No, it’s not like that, there’s a wind noise somewhere…”
I turned on the ‘Wolf’s Pact’ and focused my awareness on hearing. It wasn’t long before I found where the wind noise was coming from.
‘Floor?’
Why is the wind noise on the floor? I ran my finger across the floor. And I realized why the wind noise was coming from the floor.
There was a thin gap in the floor.
