Chapter 50 – Episode 50. Giant Juniel
“We will participate in all three dungeons. I’m going to aim for the first prize in every possible dungeon. If you do that, won’t you be able to find the hero?”
While talking with the rat head, I received confirmation of participation qualifications.
It is said that there were users who thought similarly to me in other ‘games’ in the past.
It was a person who had a job commanding summoned beasts, but he was blinded by greed and tore with the summoned beasts and went into different dungeons.
The result is a death ending.
The synergy is supposed to be shown when the two of them are together, but when it is torn apart, they say that they are all terrified and destroyed.
Anyway,
Even summoned people can enter by paying the participation fee.
Then my girls can enter the dungeon on their own if they pay.
Shi-eun asked in a voice full of worries.
“So, then, do we have to enter each dungeon separately? Gwa, will you be okay?”
“Don’t worry. It will be fine enough First of all, each of you have higher stats than most people.
Unless you have a 3 or 4 star job, there will be very few people beyond your power. Furthermore…”
You don’t die
I was about to say this.
I think it’s a bit insensitive to say.
I swallowed the words I was about to come out and continued talking.
“Besides, there aren’t many people with as much combat experience as you, right? So even if we split apart, we should be able to do well in each dungeon without any problems.”
Ji-yoon and Si-eun nodded as if in agreement with my words.
“Then brother…
Jiyoon looked at me anxiously and asked me.
“How will you divide the number of people?”
“Well, I haven’t decided on that yet… But the characteristics of all three event dungeons are different.”
The contents of the event dungeon I heard from Sue, the rat head, are as follows.
The first dungeon is a normal hunting dungeon.
A dungeon inhabited by monsters composed of goblins and goblin warriors.
Grades are given based on how many monsters you catch.
The second dungeon is a raid dungeon.
It is said that the stats of the people participating in the dungeon are combined, and an appropriate medium-large monster is summoned.
Participants work together to defeat monsters, and grades are awarded based on their achievements.
The third and final dungeon is the Treasure Hunt Dungeon.
Actually, this dungeon is the biggest problem.
If the previous two dungeons were dungeons where you fight against monsters, this is like a dungeon made for humans to fight and kill each other.
The rules are simple.
10 treasures will be scattered in random locations on the field, find them and keep them until the end of the event.
Your score is based on how many treasures you have by the end of the game.
In fact, there will be many casualties from the same humans in the previous two dungeons as well.
Trash that preys on humans exists everywhere.
However, in the case of the last treasure hunt, I think it will be the most dangerous because it is a dungeon made for humans to fight openly.
After hearing my explanation, Shi-eun said with a firm face.
“Brother.. Which dungeon are you planning to enter?”
“I will participate in the third event dungeon. That place is the best match for me.”
“Are you good at it?”
“Hmm.. To be honest, the third dungeon is more about protecting than finding treasure. It won’t be easy to protect the treasure from competitors. But once I find the treasure, it is very easy to keep it.”
Just slap it into the cradle of rest.
There is no need to stay up all night.
Because you can sleep in the cradle of rest.
Maybe the third dungeon is the best dungeon for me.
“So… I’m going into the third dungeon with only one person. That..”
At my words, Jiyoon and Sieun looked at me earnestly.
I guess they want you to take them with you.
But..
I pondered and decided how to divide the staff.
“Good. Decided. Juniel’s first dungeon. Shi-eun and Ji-yoon enter the second dungeon, and Ji-soo and I enter the third dungeon.”
Jisoo looks at me in shock at my words.
I don’t show off, but I think I like the twinkling eyes.. Quite a bit?
I’m surprised I expected you to hate it if you went alone with me.
Anyway, Si-eun and Ji-yoon openly put on a sullen expression.
I told them both.
“I think this is for the best. Honestly, Juniel is a bitch who can chew through dungeons and come out on his own, so he’s only right to spend alone. And actually… Jisoo, Shieun, and Jiyoon. The combination of the three is so good.
It’s a combination of melee dealer, tank, and ranged dealer. Breaking that combination isn’t great either… But that doesn’t mean I can’t go alone, can I? I am a weak necromancer.”
Although all stats are above 40. Anyway, it’s weak.
“The person who will protect me and find the treasure… I think Jisoo is perfect. So don’t be too disappointed, okay?”
Jiyoon and Sieun nodded at my words.
Jiyoon said to me with a sad face.
“I know, brother. But… If Jisoo goes with her brother, it’s just Sieun and I. Would it be okay if we went to the raid dungeon together?”
“No, I don’t feel safe sending them alone. I’ll give you a meat shield for the two of you and someone to do melee dealing.”
“… Is there such a person? Who?”
“Aren’t you all my subordinates?”
Seeing my words, Shi-eun and Ji-yoon’s expressions rot.
Sieun told me
“… Can’t we just go together?”
“Just be patient with me this time. But when he takes medicine, he gets pretty strong.”
“Yeah, but…”
I said while stroking Jiyoon and Sieun’s hair.
“Please. Can you put up with it for me?”
Si-eun and Ji-yoon were parents at my words.
“Oh, brother. Don’t say that Please.”
“That’s right. Me, we will do whatever you want. So you don’t have to ask me to.”
I dragged the two bewildered people into my arms.
The two pretty girls on our team always make me happy.
… To be honest, it’s best not to break the combination of Jisoo, Jiyoon, and Sieun.
The balance is good and we usually talk a lot, so our breathing will match well.
But if you do that… I’ll have to go with the boss.
I hate that.
Why do I have to go into a dungeon with a stinky man like that?
So this time Jiyoon and Sieun sacrifice(?).
“Well, since that’s how it happened… You’ll have to prepare a bit before that for the first place in each dungeon. First of all, I don’t know about Juniel, but I think it’s better to raise the stats of the three people as much as possible. Especially Sieun. Compared to Jisoo or Jiyoon, it’s a lot lower, so let’s raise Sieun’s stats as much as possible. Got it?”
What do you mean by raising stats?
It sounds like you have to do a lot with me.
Shi-eun bowed her head in shame.
Haha, by the way, I wanted to try this and that in a 2-on-1, 3-on-1, and 4-on-1…
Until the end of the event dungeon, go for quantity over quality.
Rather than trying to play this and that, I have to raise my stats as much as possible.
“Starting today, I will only focus on raising the stats of one of you outside of sleeping time. During that time, the other three go out and hunt monsters. Rather than playing around, it would be better to level up or get gold. Got it?”
At my words, Jisoo, Jiyoon, and Sieun nodded.
“Okay then, let’s start right away. The most urgent thing right now is Shi-eun, so let’s start with Si-eun today.
Juniel, Jisoo, and Jiyoon, go outside. Come back at dawn.”
“Yes, brother.”
“Yes, Master.”
“…”
I looked at Juniel and said.
“Juniel, answer.”
“… I get it. Master.”
I lightly glared at Juniel and then growled.
“You’d better be straight. Because your position is at the bottom here. Don’t try to do any harm to the other three women, just listen to them. Okay?”
“… I didn’t mean to harm the older sisters anyway…”
Hmm, you said you like pretty girls.
Well, it’s okay if you don’t have to worry about ruining Shi-eun, Ji-soo, and Ji-yoon.
“Ah, I see. Why did you crawl out so early?”
“.. Where did you crawl out..”
“I heard that it was quite a while before a high-ranking demon like you appeared, but you came out at such an early stage and got lost in me. You say your strength hasn’t recovered?”
“… If I had my natural strength, my master would have died with just one gesture of my hand.”
“Well, whatever. So, why did you crawl out with less-than-perfect power and then die?”
At my words Juniel raised her own hatchet with her gloomy face.
“..It’s because of this kid.”
“Kid? You mean that axe?”
Juniel nodded at my words.
“This child’s name is the coachman, Grand Tail. It is one of the five major weapons of the Demon King’s army. The body can recover all its strength over time, but this child is different. It can only be restored to its original form by absorbing blood. It’s pitiful… To have to live in such an ugly appearance for such a long time. How wonderful is the original appearance…”
Hmm, come to think of it, after the hatchet stuck in Jiyoon’s chest and went back again, Juniel said that.
-Oh. Her older sister was a rather strong human being. My cute baby is a little bit older?-
I thought he was just a crazy bitch, so I thought it was crazy, but that’s what he meant.
By the way… You have one of the 5 major weapons of the Demon King’s Army?
Then isn’t it just a high-ranking demon?
“Juniel, what position were you in the demon lord’s army?”
Juniel answered my question gloomily.
“The side job is gone now, but… My original side job was the ‘Demon King’s 3rd Legion Commander’.”
Omg.
What is it, Commander? A corps commander?
If it’s a corps commander… That means it’s about 3 stars in the real world.
Wasn’t this a giant?
The commander of the demon king’s army is my subordinate…!
For some reason, I am a little thrilled.
Wait, then, doesn’t Juniel know the information about the Demon King’s Army?
Where is the demon king and what is the scale?
When I asked, Juniel shook his head.
“Now is not the time for the Demon King’s army to gather. Corps commanders who are scattered all over the world and are recovering all their strength will gather in one place to form the Demon King’s Army. After that, if the demon king descends through the descending ceremony, the full-fledged march of the demon king army will begin.”
“Then you don’t know anything about the demon lord?”
“Yeah, it’s still before Advent.”
Hmmm, unfortunately
Anyway, isn’t this game really too much for humans?
The hero has to struggle from the beginning and overcome the danger of death.
The demon king comes out leisurely only after his subordinates have laid the foundation.
It really sucks.
Juniel’s words continued.
“I haven’t recovered my strength yet, so I didn’t intend to touch humans if possible. I was thinking of just calling the demons and absorbing their blood before going back… But I ended up meeting the master.”
That’s why there was a large-scale movement of monsters. And there was a large amount of monster corpses at that university.
“No, you said you had no intention of touching a possible human? Then why did you throw an ax at me?”
“That…”
Juniel glanced at Jiyoon and said.
“I did it because I didn’t want to look a little stuck next to my older sister. There was also a feeling that there was only one garbage man..”
Wow, crazy bitch.
The crazy bitch bowed her head to Jiyoon and said.
“I feel so sorry for her sister. She never dreamed that my sister would blow her body to block her axe. I really had no intention of killing her sister. Really.”
Seeing Juniel lowering her head, Jiyoon giggled in embarrassment.
Come to think of it, she said that when Jiyoon died.
-Oops, it wasn’t that sister I was aiming for.. But the pretty sister died~~?
She said it wasn’t like a joke.. Then she said this.
Wow crazy man
I said while looking at Juniel with absurd eyes.
“.. Aren’t you sorry for me?”
“.. You can’t be sorry, can you? Rather, I was killed by my master? Shouldn’t Master feel sorry for me?”
After Juniel spoke gloomily, she muttered in a low voice.
“.. I should have killed the master then..”
I can hear you, crazy boy.
You’ll need more education.
Right now I have to pay attention to the stats of the other kids, so I’ll skip it,
See you soon when it’s your turn.
I looked at Juniel and gave her a smile full of anticipation.
