Chapter 59 – 59. Crisis
59. Crisis
Richella Cemetery
A D-class maze-type dungeon where many undead monsters appear.
A peculiarity is that even though it is a D-class dungeon, only E-class monsters, skeletons, appear at the beginning.
But that’s the story of the beginning. If you go deeper into the depths, D-class monsters pop out like other D-class dungeons.
“Kieek!!”
“Whoa! What the fuck!”
“It’s a ghoul!”
A monster dangling rotting flesh sprang from the ground. I reflexively flung my body backwards and dodged the attack.
Push Profit…
Greenish liquid spattered on the clothes. Smoke rises as if it were corrosive. Fuck you.
Baek!
I swung the pata and knocked the ghoul away. Unlike the skeletons that fell in one shot, he didn’t die.
“Queueek!”
Dirty purple blood drips from its head. Purple smoke rose from the floor, as if the blood was poisonous.
Woo.
I spat on the floor and fixed Pata. A ghoul that rushes forward with its messy head dangling.
I calmly slammed Patta from top to bottom.
Kwajik!
The head was completely crushed and the ghoul collapsed. Not only the rotten body, but also the corrosive blood that spurted out in all directions, all were reconciled with magical power and disappeared. There is only one D-class magic stone left.
The taste of your hands is amazing. After all, it’s fun to hit a punching bag that’s a little classy. Skeletons were so boring before they even gave it their full strength.
I warned Eunbyul to give me the magic stone. Tsk tsk when the porter fell out.
“Ibo show Mr. Eunbyeol. Aren’t you going to pick up magic stones?”
“Is the monster coming again?”
“What, already?”
I looked at where Eunbyeol’s finger was pointing. Indeed, several ghouls were running towards me.
Boom, boom, boom!
This time, I handled the ghoul lightly. I gave Eunbyul my eyes again. Eunbyeol also raised her finger and pointed at one place.
“What is it, are there any more?”
Gyaaaaagh! Guaaaaagh!
The tribes that deal with the monsters flock again. I don’t have time to pick up magic stones like this…
“No, what the fuck is so much?”
“It is an unpopular hunting ground. It’s natural that the monsters are piled up.”
I was momentarily perplexed. The density of monsters was different from the beginning. It wasn’t just a few monsters sparsely swarming around. It seemed like they were swarming around like ignorant giants.
In fact, I could see more than 20 ghouls running at me right now. Besides, it wasn’t just ghouls. Behind the ghouls, skeleton mages holding bone staffs are chanting spells, and skeleton archers are loading bone arrows.
“Come on fire!”
Kwaaang!
“Whoa!”
The fireballs fired by the Skeleton Mages hit the ground. Through the explosion, the ghoul attacked. Sharp arrows rained down on the back of the ghoul. The connection to the theme of the undead was great.
Baek!
I swung my pata and killed several ghouls. Then, using hardening, I hit the flying arrow with my body.
I took out a sword from my inventory and threw it at Eunbyeol. It was too much to handle alone. Now it’s time to go back to Hunter So Eun-byeol!
“Yumma! Stop playing and you fight too!”
“Eh…”
After picking up the magic stone, Eunbyeol was shocked and accepted the sword. As soon as she received her sword, she took her stance and swung her sword.
The ghoul’s body is split in half by the magical sword strike. Blood spurted out instantly, but there was no blood on Eunbyeol’s body. Because she was reduced to magical power before touching her body.
Fire.
Fireballs fly again. I put magic on my Pata and hit the fireball.
Kang!
The fireball hits Pata like a baseball and flies in the opposite direction. The Skeleton Mage was shattered by the fireball he shot.
The cocksucker makes it annoying and looks good.
Eunbyeol and I passed between the ghouls swinging our swords with Patta. The magic stones that fell on the floor were so precious. If it’s a D-class magic stone, it’s 2,000 won per one…
“Is that important right now?”
Eunbyeol slashed the flying fireballs with her sword and reprimanded her.
“That’s why I told you not to come in. What’s this.”
“Noisy, dude.”
I ignored Eunbyul’s complaint. Who knew it would be like this.
Just like before, whenever I was bored, I thought about 4-5 monsters would come out, I didn’t expect it to be this spectacular.
“How many fucks are there?”
“What are you going to do now?”
Eunbyeol and I ran away killing the undead flocking to us. Slowly, I started to feel a sense of danger.
‘Could this be a bit dangerous?’
There is no one around, and it is difficult to ask for help. Wouldn’t this be really cool?
Baek!
Patter.
I hit the head of the ghoul that was attacking me from mid-air. Dirty blood and brain water are scattered. Another ghoul jumps beyond the corpse that is reduced to magical power. Eunbyeol slashed his limbs with a sword strike.
“Whoa, fuck.”
I feel like I’m getting less and less powerful. Your stamina is draining. If it went on like this, it seemed like it would be really fucked up.
‘Should I try that?’
I rummaged through my inventory. Then he took out the bizarre mask (C).
‘By the way, would it be okay to use this outside?’
The grotesque mask is a cursed item. In the corner of the room, it was cursed and nabbed and had no effect on me, but outside the corner, the story was a little different.
If you don’t do it wrong, you may be cursed and search for nothing.
‘Are you okay? It’s because I killed the demon that lived here last time.’
The other day, the first time I wore it, I remember striking and killing the demon that resided in the mask. You probably won’t have any problems wearing it.
No no… Not, or else you’re fucked.
“I don’t know.”
Anyway, I thought it would be better to try it once. I brushed off the flying chunk of ice and put on my mask.
[The bizarre mask (C) engulfs the body.]
Along with an unpleasant, gimochi feeling, I felt the mask sticking to my face.
A bunch of white tentacles sprout from the bizarre mask and take root all over my body like mold. I accepted the mask eating away at me without resisting.
“Big…”
“What, what is that?”
I felt like electric currents were going through my whole body. Fucking feeling like muscles tearing and regenerating. Before long, the grotesque mask engulfed my entire body.
“Huh…”
A sound like an insect gnawing on metal emanates from his throat. Eunbyeol sensed an instinctive fear and withdrew slightly from me.
However, the undead were different. They have neither reason nor emotion. All they have is a longing for life. And to satisfy that craving, I jumped at Eunbyeol and me who were still alive.
The ghoul jumped in, straightening its sharp claws. I lightly grabbed his head with my hand and pinned him to the floor.
Quaang!
A ghoul’s body that can be crushed like slime. Intoxicated with the overflowing power in my body, I let out a mad blast.
Haha! Good good!”
Devil’s power runs through his veins. The sudden flow of power was like a drug. Feeling like I could do anything, I jumped with excitement.
“Gyaaaaagh!”
I’ve already thrown away the pada. I used my fists and feet to crush the undead. The brain begins to fill with the urge to destroy. I feel like my body is not me.
Around the time I felt something uncomfortable with those feelings, a strange voice suddenly resonated in my head.
– Haha. Mortals, offer your weak body to the principal!
“What, what the fuck.”
Jiying.
A grotesquely distorted voice stirred in his brain. I felt something go awry. The demon I thought I had killed last time was still parasitic inside the mask.
‘Fucked!’
I woke up.
No shit! I’m sure he was killed, but in fact, no one is alive!!
– Heck, I almost died from being caught by some monster the other day… Fortunately, a new sacrifice has walked in! Lucky you!
I quickly tried to take off the mask. However, I didn’t think the mask would come off my body.
“Aagh!”
– Do not resist, mortal. As long as you wear a mask, is your body the same as yours? Even if you rebel now, it’s too late haha!
“You fucking bitch!!”
Quaang!
I punched myself in the face. A sharp pain rushed in, but I didn’t care and hit it twice, three times in a row.
– No use. Stop dedicating your body to the principal and disappear, mortal.
Wow!
I felt like something heavy was falling in my head. My mind went blank.
I felt my mind sink below the surface of consciousness, like a boulder sinking into the depths of the sea. I tried to resist to the end, but to no avail.
I was trapped in the boundary between unconscious and conscious.
Haha. It’s a real body obtained after a long time. I like it. Kuhh Shall we deal with the disturbing bugs first?”
The demon that took over my body reached out. Mysterious red magic begins to condense in his fingers.
As the demon waved his hand, red magic spread like a wave. The ghouls swept away by the wave of magic crumbled like cookies.
Haha, I like it. However, it seemed that there was a girl there. Where did you go?”
The devil roams around. He seemed to be looking for Eunbyeol.
Come to think of it, where did Eunbyeol go? I’m sure he was by my side until I put on the mask.
Being a quick-witted child, she seemed to sense something was wrong and run away.
No, she’s in trouble right now, but she can’t help but run away? Have you ever seen such an ungrateful bitch…
‘Sister-in-law, I’ll have to fucking fuck her pussy later…’
But now what?
I struggled, trapped in my consciousness. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t come up with a way out of this situation.
In fact, there was one last resort. Open your inventory and activate the Hearthstone you bought last time.
The moment the hearthstone is activated, my body will return to the corner of the room, and if that happens, the devil or champy can be torn apart in 0.01 seconds.
However, that is only a last resort. It is impossible to fly a hearthstone, which is like a lifeline, without trying anything.
It is not too late to use it later when there is no real answer.
Maybe.
“Hey, there he is.”
While I struggled, the devil confirmed Eunbyeol’s location.
Fighting.
Wings rise from my back. Pure white wings made of bones and skin. I’m just writing that I’m not very old.
Tuquaang!
The devil used his wings to fly towards Eunbyeol. It seemed dangerous, but I decided to leave it alone. I was thinking of punishing you for the crime of abandoning me and running away.
Eunbyeol is also a C-class hunter. I won’t be easily defeated by the demon that dwells in C-class items.
‘I’ll have to start preparing to use the Hearthstone.’
I plan to use the Hearthstone after harassing Eunbyeol moderately using the devil.
