Chapter 782 – Guardian of the Dungeon
“I’m glad you did well. Then, how about using that relic?』
“Oh, is this?”
When the Dracolich points out the Demilich’s reliquary, Seong-il touches the reliquary he has brought to fuck him.
“Okay. Maybe it’s because you suffered a lot because of that lich… You seem to have a lot of malice towards him, but isn’t it a waste to destroy him like this?]
“I do, but… Is there a way?”
The dracolich lets out a malevolent laugh and then tells you how to use the reliquary to harass the demilich.
“Of course it is. I’m going to use him as a lighthouse keeper.”
The Dracolich recommends that you return the demilich’s soul to the lighthouse with the help of the moon god. In addition, he recommends applying a magical device so that if harm occurs to the lighthouse or the holy day, it will cause extreme pain to the soul of the creature and even destroy it.
“Hmm… What’s the point of doing that? Are you just using it as a minion?”
『You can use it like that… He won’t try to protect your lighthouse somehow, even to protect his own life.』
The soul of the dracolich in the lighthouse. To be precise, it is explained that if the reliquary is attributed, it will result in a terrible reincarnation of eternity in which he cannot die even if he wants to die.
『If you do that, he will be able to be summoned and used as a servant at any time as long as you stay in reality.』
In effect, the Dracolich’s words were to make the demilich into a battle slave for use in battles with aliens or in dungeons. Even as long as Seong-il doesn’t die, time is only a problem, and in the end, it’s a beacon of reality. To be precise, it tells you that you will be resurrected from the reliquary parasitic on the lighthouse.
“It’s definitely a good idea… But won’t he betray me or play tricks on the lighthouse?”
As it is an artifact containing his soul, Seong-il is extremely wary of the demilich, the master of magic, playing tricks on the lighthouse. In particular, he regards it as a threat when he seizes the lighthouse and causes harm to himself or even absorbs it to become a transcendent being, then plays a game in the Inner Plane.
“A chinless sound. Do you know that your soul is the same as the 1st and 2nd passers-by sold at a stall?”
At Seongil’s words, Dracolich laughs at his concerns as if he is full of energy. He says his Seongil doesn’t seem to see his abilities objectively. At the same time, he replies that Seong-il is a being protected by the game master, who is a cosmic being, and that Seong-il’s ability has far surpassed that of a demilich for a long time.
『If you are really worried about that, ask the moon god to put all sorts of restrictions on his soul.』
Draco Lich advises that since the moon god is a mighty god who handles souls, he will praise his hard work and place strong restrictions on the reliquary if Seongil asks for it.
『God probably puts down almost every soul curse that can be inflicted on a mortal. Curse that any disrespectful thought, plan, or will to you will make your soul tear, or even break your soul. Even if their souls are destroyed, they cannot die. You will be reborn.”
“Oh…But if you think disrespectful to me during the battle and then fall into pain and can’t fight properly, isn’t that a problem…?”
“There is a solution to that as well.”
The Dracolich recommends adding a function that makes the Demilich an idiot so that he doesn’t have any useless thoughts, or a function that temporarily paralyzes the demilich’s sense of pain.
『It is also a way to insert a function that makes you feel extreme pleasure.』
Advice from a dracolich that really shows the extremes of evil. But apart from that, his advice sounds pretty plausible, so Seong-il is attracted to his advice. However, when he still doesn’t want to hang him on his lighthouse, Dracolich tells him that there is a way to seal his reliquary in an ordinary space and have the goddess or Widgrasil watch over him.
『But in that case, the variable will be bigger. Your soul has an absolute mental barrier that can’t even pollute divine beings, but Widgrassil and the goddesses aren’t to that extent. Of course, it’s the same thing that both of them are enormous, but… If you feel bad about it, get rid of it. It may be offered as a sacrifice. The moon god will like it.”
Demilich says that as much karma has been accumulated by taking refuge in the evil god for a long time, the god of the moon will regard his soul as a delicacy because there are many evil causality accumulated in his soul.
“Hmm… I’m worried.”
『What are you worried about?』
“Well, it’s a problem with my lighthouse.”
Hearing Sungil’s words, the Dracolich puts on a bewildered expression as if he’s worried about everything and tries to answer him. However, Ruchel, who has been silently listening to the conversation between the two, intervenes in the conversation and quietly gives Seong-il some advice.
“Can’t you just ask the game master without worrying?”
“…To the game master?”
“My words are those words. Ask him.”
Ruchel and Dracolich are confident that a game master, the god of causality calculation and the causality itself, will be able to identify any number of negative variables.
“Do you want to answer…?”
“Is there any reason not to?”
Ruchel says that although the Game Master is recovering his strength, remember that Seong-il answered a question even if it was unreasonable when he asked a question in an important situation or when he needed advice.
“Hmm…”
It wasn’t something that would harm him, so Seong-il nodded at those words, picked up his phone, and asked the game master a question.
『Game Master: The emotion doesn’t warn you, what are you so worried about? Just do it. I wonder if my bastard is out of his mind. If you’re really worried, ask the moon god to put restrictions on you, just as the Dracolich said.”
“Oh…”
Seong-il feels that his anxiety is dispelled when the game master is fully guaranteed. So, with the help of the Dracolich, he places the primary constraint on the Demilich’s Reliquary, and then leaves to meet the Moon God with the Lich’s soul in the Reliquary.
***
The world inside the dungeon is back again. Upon arriving there, Seong-il could see that a magnificent mobile sanctuary had been erected. Seong-il is intrigued by the overwhelming change after entrusting the management of the dungeon to Edward and the G.E.C.R he is in charge of for only a week.
『Are you here?』
As soon as the holy day arrives, Edward and several G.E.C.Rs greet him. Seong-il asks him if anything has happened in the past.
“No. As the owner explained, it took a long time to prepare, perhaps because it was the second half.”
Maybe that’s why, compared to the beginning, the majesty of the army of the moon, which is overwhelming. At a cursory glance, the mighty elite, which seemed to number in thousands, made the viewers numb.
“Oh. The Great Master is here.”
When Seongil appears, a goblin with a strange appearance in a suit appears in the dark shadow of the Moon Sanctuary. The holy day enters the sanctuary after bowing to him, who is in fact the apostle of the last remaining moon.
『Hoho… Please put restrictions on that lich’s phylactery?』
“Yes. I would like you to put all kinds of restraints and restraints on him so that he cannot betray you.”
“Good. I’ll do it. It’s not just one or two things you’ve done, but that’s about it.”
In general, in the game, the player would receive a reward from the moon god every time he went down a floor. However, Seong-il had nothing to ask of him, so he never asked for compensation. Perhaps because of this, the god of the moon seems to readily accept such a request of Seongil.
“Could you give me some time? I want to do what I always do properly.”
“As much as you like. But, I want to say something more…”
Seong-il willingly answers when the moon god asks for time, because if he works meticulously, he can gain if he can. He then tells the moon-god about the dracolich, who left him and became apathetic.
『Ah, that loyal child.』
As expected, the god of the moon, having heard the current situation of the dracolich, does not show any particular anger. Seeing that, Seong-il is encouraged, explains why he became aloof, and then asks if he can forgive him and give him freedom.
“No wonder. Even though the regression was repeated, the child’s soul continued to remain unchanged at a certain level. It happened. He deserves to be disappointed in me.”
Even after hearing the details, the moon god still maintains a cool attitude. He would have angered and punished the Draco Lich’s attitude in the past, but he himself learned a great deal through the Eternal War. He says he can forgive him enough now that he no longer clings to the apostles.
『After I let go of my obsession with apostles, the sun was able to rise from the god of the sun to the god of light through successive victories. And while laughing at my changed appearance, I made the apostle to the limit and repeated the wave of attacks.”
‘Ah, so he wasn’t the god of darkness, but the ‘moon’ god?’
