Chapter 532 – Chapter 532. Fake Dungeon (4)
Jump-
Lucy opened her tightly closed eyes and stood up.
Obviously, Nam Da-eun came in while she was talking with Alice, and right after that, something hit Lucy’s body.
“What is this? Ugh.”
Unpleasant mana wrapped around the body.
As soon as Lucy came to her senses, she endured the discomfort and immediately went to find Rumi.
“Lou, Rumi. Where is Rumi?! Are you okay?”
“I’m here. Lucy…”
“Rumi! It’s good. It’s fuzzy…”
“Ugh. Ugh.”
Lucy patted Rumi on the cheek and let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it seems that there are no injuries.
“Hey, where is this?! Kyaaak!”
“Such crazy…! I couldn’t even save the assignment, what is this!”
After confirming that Rumi was fine, Lucy also noticed the situation around her.
People I saw for the first time were standing around in panic.
“… What?”
A gloomy chill covers the body.
Inside this dark, cave-like space was filled with eerie magic.
“Uh, uhh…”
“Ouch….”
“Alice? Da Eun-ah?”
“… What’s the situation? Suddenly, magic power overtook me.”
“I was also subdued in an instant.”
Alice and Nam Da-eun soon came to their senses.
At a time when they hadn’t grasped the situation yet.
People started to appear around.
Lucy and Rumi opened their eyes in a place where no one was there, but it turned out that they appeared jumping out of thin air.
And soon a familiar person appeared.
“Eh, Alice?! Why are you here…”
“Sister? I really want to ask. Do you know what the situation is?”
As soon as Irene saw Elise, she opened her eyes wide and approached her.
Even though she was taken aback by her sudden enchantment, meeting Elise in it was even more surprising.
Irene thought of Lee Ho-yeon and clenched her fists.
“I don’t know for sure… To make Alice even get caught up in it.
“… Lee Ho-yeon?”
Elise felt her throbbing headache and placed her hand on her forehead.
Somehow, it’s been quiet lately, so it soon sparked an incident.
“Scarlett. What is this situation?”
“…I’m not sure either. But at the last moment, Hoenn-sama didn’t control the magic circle. I definitely confirmed that.”
“Yeah. I saw that too. Is it a runaway magic circle? But I don’t think the baby’s father would make that mistake.”
Scarlett opened her mouth quietly, watching the chaotic atmosphere, and Rebecca quickly began to grasp the situation.
As soon as Liliana entered the dungeon, she unluckily smashed her head into her stone.
“Ah, ouch… It’s the head. Why is there a stone. Black.”
When Liliana was crying.
Rebecca watched the back of Irene as she ran towards Elise and felt the magic around her.
Since meeting Lucifer, she had been steadily training her infernal magic, so it was possible to grasp the surrounding situation even inside the runaway dungeon.
“It’s similar to the runaway phenomenon in the dungeon… It’s certain that it’s a magic circle made with the baby’s father. The last appearance is a bit questionable.”
“What purpose did Hoyeon-sama make this for? I don’t think he wanted to terrorize…”
Scarlett looked around her and narrowed her eyes.
There were cadets and professors from the academy in the fake dungeon, but there were also people with no fighting skills, such as staff and the elderly.
There was no reason for that, and no matter how strange Lee Ho-yeon was, he thought he wasn’t that bad.
– Kreuk, Kreukreuk… !
– Whoops. Gyaaaaagh.
“Ughhhhh!”
“A monster… A monster! Run away!”
At that time, grotesque monsters appeared in a corner of the dungeon.
The murder and hideous appearance that even the cadets of the academy have never experienced.
People were instantly confused.
“Ellis. Let’s overcome this crisis together with your sister.”
“…Sister. Don’t say anything strange and calm down the general public first. If it’s me and my sister, we can calm people down in no time.”
“Oh, is that so?”
“Everyone, don’t panic and stay calm! I’m Moon Su-rin, the student council president. Move calmly.”
Irene, who listened to Elise’s words and tried to capture the atmosphere around her, turned her head to the sound of her voice that filled the dungeon.
In this place, she had someone more reassuring than herself.
“Everyone, please gather around here. We will classify those who can fight separately.”
“Sol, don’t you know what’s going on?”
“It’s a bit awkward… But I think it’s probably a dungeon. The dungeon became irregular as the congestion occurred. Maybe I got caught up in the congestion of the huge dungeon?”
Im Sol, who got caught up in the dungeon with Moon Soo-rin, responded to Baek A-young’s words, then tilted her head and looked around.
An ominous wave of magic that even she herself could not stop.
That sinister magic filled the inside of the dungeon as well.
Moon Soo-rin reassured the people and classified combat personnel and non-combat personnel.
After ensuring people’s safety, Mun Su-rin asked Im Sol for his opinion.
“It seems to be a runaway phenomenon in the dungeon. It seems that nearby creatures were forcibly pulled into the dungeon. It seems like a new runaway phenomenon that has never been discovered before. What do you think, Professor Imsol?”
“I think so too. Similar phenomena to dungeon runaways are being observed.”
Assessing the situation was over quickly.
Like the aces of the academy, after reading only a few phenomena, they immediately understood that the dungeon was running out of control.
It was an action that perfectly matched Lee Ho-yeon’s intention.
“Still, it’s fortunate that there are many combat personnel. Perhaps the people inside the academy were divided into several branches… I hope there are no places that have suffered major damage.”
It was expected that the dungeon would hit the entire academy, and people who had been far away randomly gathered.
People from the academy must have fallen all over the dungeon.
Fortunately, it’s okay where Munsurin is, but what terrible things would have happened if only non-combatants gathered.
The monsters that appeared in one of the dungeons showed their teeth as they looked at the humans.
The spittle dripping on the floor was very threatening, but it didn’t hit me.
Because it was an important space, Lee Ho-yeon cared about security.
“Coincidentally… Familiar faces, um?”
Under the leadership of Munsurin, combat personnel and non-combat personnel were divided.
However, among the combatants, there was a person I had never seen at the academy.
“So these people…? I don’t think they’re related to the academy, but do you know Irene-san? Were you together just a while ago?”
“Yeah. I’m an acquaintance. Don’t worry.”
“I’m sure I remember seeing it somewhere… Ah.”
Scarlett and Liliana avert their eyes.
Seeing Nam Da-eun and Rebecca smiling awkwardly made me remember.
The restaurant where Moon Seong-min was captured.
These are the women who dated Lee Ho-yeon there.
Only then did Munsu Rin bow her head and greet her.
“Nice to meet you. Didn’t I say hello properly back then? The people who ate together with Hoyeon.”
“…Nice to meet you, Student President.”
“I’d like to talk a little more…But I don’t have time for that right now.”
Nam Da-eun, who at least knew Moon Soo-rin, bowed her head and received her greeting.
Moon Su-rin also looked at the faces of the other combatants.
Twins Lucy Rumi and Nam Da-eun, first-year prospects.
Sisters Alice and Irene of the Iris Guild.
Professor Im Sol and Saint Nyeo.
And three women who don’t know how strong they are, and the student council president himself.
“Surprisingly, they are all women. I’ll take a look at the non-combatants for a moment. Please say hello.”
“”….””
As soon as the student council president left, an awkward atmosphere flowed.
The women did not yet know each other properly.
Alice whispered as she looked at Irene next to her.
“Sister. What should I do now?”
“I don’t know. Of course I can’t contact the outside… I don’t think I can contact the inside of the dungeon either.”
“I heard it was because of Lee Ho-yeon. Does your sister know anything in detail?”
“I saw the last one…But I have a lot of questions.”
“What is it? Tell me in detail.”
Even Alice, who knew the existence of the fake dungeon magic circle, couldn’t believe that this was Lee Ho-yeon’s magic circle.
To that extent, the dungeon had a sense of reality.
The time when Irene was explaining Lee Ho-yeon’s last appearance to Alice.
Liliana, who was still, raised her head.
“… I found out something amazing.”
“Yes? Miss Liliana. Do you have any information about the dungeon?”
“Iris Guild is Iris Guild because Irene and Alice, right? It’s kind of familiar. Yes.”
“…”
Nam Da-eun blinked her eyes as she saw Liliana saying something out of the blue.
What is she talking about all of a sudden? What does being trapped in a dungeon have to do with the Iris Guild?
It was Scarlett who saved Nam Da-eun from confusion.
“Miss Daeun. Don’t pay attention to Liliana’s words.”
“Oh, yes. But why are you all here?”
“… I want to ask that too.”
“Who are these two? Does Da-eun know?”
Rebecca approached Lucy and Rumi, who were watching her from Da-eun Nam’s side.
She was Rebecca, who had grown up from a young age, so it warms my heart when I see kids like that.
“Hello. My name is Lucy.”
“Hey, nice to meet you. I’m Rumi.”
“Ugh. These are cute kids. Are they Dahee’s friends?”
“The same age as me. The same age as Hoyeon.”
“… Okay?”
Rebecca was briefly surprised that these little children were classmates with Lee Ho-yeon, but when she saw two large lumps hanging below her collarbone, she thought it might be.
Let’s get rid of the bad habit of thinking that we are young just because we are short.
“Rebecca. Long time no see. How are you?”
“Ah, Mage Imsol!”
Rebecca’s eyes twinkled as she saw Imsol approaching.
At least there was Rebecca, who didn’t cover her face, so her atmosphere was a little relaxed.
“Is there any information you know about the current phenomenon? Listening to what you said earlier, you seem to know something.”
An ominous magic power enveloped her body.
Imsol spoke to Rebecca as her body flinched.
The elaborately crafted fake dungeon was enough to fool even Im Sol.
There’s no reason to think it’s fake in the first place, so that’s a big deal.
“Mmm. Yes. I know to some extent.”
Rebecca looked at her imsol and pondered for a moment.
Should I talk about Lee Ho-yeon or not?
Which choice would be more helpful to Lee Ho-yeon?
‘… The last appearance of the baby’s father was obviously strange.’
I don’t know what Lee Ho-yeon’s intentions were, but it’s clear that her work went against her own intentions.
I don’t know what the cause is, but they have to help.
“Actually, before I came here, I met Hoyeon.”
“Oh, really? What’s going on? Why?”
“Yeah. Mr. Ayeong. Hold on. Let go of my shoulder.”
After Rebecca got rid of Baek Ah-young, who was running towards her, she continued her words.
Lucy and Rumi also looked this way with their eyes wide open, and Im Sol and Nam Da-eun also focused on Rebecca’s words.
“…So you’re saying that the disciple set us into a trap?”
“No. I think the accident happened differently than Hoyeoni thought.”
Nam Da-eun, who was quietly listening to her, looked at Rebecca.
If you saw Lee Ho-yeon until the end, shouldn’t she still be with you?
“Then where is Ho-yeon? If she had been with Mr. Rebecca, she would have been embroiled in it as well.”
“I don’t know. In order to ask the exact situation, I, no. I need to find Hoyeon. Hoyeon would know how to escape from here.”
“Does Rebecca know where Hoyeon is?”
“I don’t know. But there’s a place where the feeling comes from.”
“I think I know where I am.”
Imsol, who had been quietly listening to the conversation, answered Rebecca’s words and raised her magic.
– Kung. Thud.
Imsol, who is sensitive to her magic, had been feeling it since before.
No, in the first place, if you have more than a certain level of skill, you will naturally feel it.
The dungeon was ringing at regular intervals.
Magical energy vibrated as if an earthquake had occurred.
It was clear that something was there.
