Chapter 615 – Escape
There were a total of five ‘Sapenta’ monsters with heavy penises that crawled out from the walls of the tunnel.
Should I say that working hard with a pickaxe was worth it?
Two are crawling towards Dwight and his group, and three are crawling towards me.
“You idiot! I fell for your own tricks. Did you think you could escape from us with just this little hair!”
Dwight, who saw more Sapenta coming towards me, laughed and shouted.
I was dumbfounded.
He is just talking loudly about the topic that is being carried on by his subordinates.
Dwight’s men saw the approaching monster and formed battle formation.
Perhaps because he was a former military inmate, he seemed more skilled and disciplined than other inmates.
“Palchigong, get down on your knees and ask for forgiveness right now? If you do that, it might just save you from becoming Sapenta’s food.”
Who would believe me when I talk about life like that?
“You’ll see who will be the food.”
I threw out a handful of small stones that I had already held in my hand.
The stones flew like bullets and cleverly changed direction, shattering the lantern they were holding.
The tunnel where the lantern’s light disappeared was suddenly enveloped in darkness.
This place was quite deep from the outside. Since it was a place where not a single bit of light entered, it was not darkness that could be seen simply by the eyes adjusting.
Dwight and his group can be seen looking embarrassed.
The mine monster, Sapenta, is not a very threatening monster.
The attack itself was simple.
There are only teeth on the head that look like the glans and headbutting attacks on the body.
That’s why Dwight and his group also showed confidence.
But, what if it’s in complete darkness?
The story is completely different.
Humans are beings who rely quite a lot on what they see with their eyes.
Fighting without vision is not easy.
“What about extra lanterns?”
“Well, I have one.”
At Dwight’s words, one of the group members takes out an extra lantern from his bag in the dark.
I’m not the type to just sit there and watch.
A small stone floats up from the floor and I catch it in my hand. I lightly threw the stone.
He appeared to be trying to block me with a shield in case of additional attacks, but the stone that moved according to my intention avoided the shield and even destroyed the extra lantern.
“This guy has some tricks!”
Dwight said, gritting his teeth.
Their relaxed appearance had completely disappeared.
“The monster comes first! It’s coming closer! Get ready.”
Do they know?
Even the three Sapentas that were targeting me turned towards them.
The reason is simple.
I just used a light ‘power of deception’ to make Sapenta realize that I was not prey.
-Keeeee!
The battle between Dwight and Sapenta has begun.
And they soon realized that five Sapentas were attacking them.
“Aren’t there two Sapentas?!”
“… Has he already been harmed?”
“No. It looks like that rat-like bastard has done something again!”
“It’s okay! Even if there are five, it’s no big deal if you’re careful!”
Does this mean that even if it rots, it is still acceptable?
Dwight and his party formed a solid formation even when they couldn’t see, and somehow continued the fight stably against the five Sapentas.
As expected, it was different from the magic stone mining party of the Helena Liberation Front that I was escorting.
It’s not something I ate through my asshole.
If things continue like this, there may be some sacrifices, but it will end in victory for Dwight and his group.
Of course, that’s when I didn’t participate in the war.
I had no intention of leaving them in the hands of monsters.
-Tung!
Sapenta’s headbutting attack is blocked by the shield held by the sturdy man.
Another man, who had been waiting for an opportunity with his ears pricked behind the wall, struck down his ax as if he had figured out Sapenta’s location.
Even though the man only heard the sound and struck down the ax with his senses, she aimed precisely at Sapenta’s head.
Sapenta’s head was a fatal weakness, and of course I had no intention of ignoring it.
-Kang!
The falling ax collided with my pickaxe and sparks flew out. Thanks to this, the fatal blow did not reach Sapenta.
“It’s a feat!”
The guy who blocked the attack of conversion shouts at me.
Regardless of whether he shouted or not, I continued my attack. The tip of my pickaxe dug into the knee of the man holding the shield in front of me.
-Right!
“Ahh!!”
The guy holding the shield sits down as his knees are shattered.
One Sapenta did not miss the opportunity and bit the man’s right arm.
“Ugh! Wow, my arm got bitten!”
Although they are said to be protected by a protective gear, the Sapenta in the western mine were of a different weight class than the cows in the eastern mine.
If he didn’t act quickly, it seemed like it would only be a matter of time before the arm ended up in Sapenta’s stomach.
They hurriedly brandish their weapons to rescue their comrades in the dark.
And I protected Sapenta with a pickaxe to prevent her from being attacked blindly.
In the end…
“Oh, no!”
-Wood!
“Aaaaah!!”
With a scream, the man’s arm is torn off.
Of course, I had no intention of ending with just one person.
Moving secretly in the dark, he smashed their knees one by one with a pickaxe.
Due to the joint attack between me and the monster, their typical style collapsed in an instant. One by one, limbs began to be torn off by Sapenta.
“Ahh!! Everything, my legs!!”
“Eight-seven balls! You coward!!”
What a coward…
This is not something that should be said by 8 people who came together and tried to harm one person.
As expected, Naeronambul seems to be a word that goes beyond the Earth and penetrates dimensions.
As Seunggi leaned toward Sapenta, Dwight began to desperately run away, hopping on his only good leg.
But I was already blocking the retreat.
Dwight, who is blind, approaches me with blond hair, not knowing I am in front of him.
My pickaxe hit his healthy knee.
“Ahh!! Palchigong, do you think you’ll get away with doing something like this!!”
Dwight, who could no longer stand, rolled on the floor in pain and vented his anger at me.
I kicked the guy who still couldn’t understand the situation.
“Gagging!”
The one kicked by my foot flew away and landed where Sapenta was writhing and eating.
Dwight’s leg is sucked into Sapenta’s mouth.
“Aaaaah!! 8-year-old! Do you think something like this can be forgiven? This is murder!!”
“…?”
Does this guy not remember what he first said to me? All I had to do was return it as is.
“Didn’t you tell me that they would break my limbs and throw them to me as food for monsters? I thought it was a good idea too. Thanks to that, I have one less thing to worry about.”
“Oh, no! Save me!”
“Tsk tsk… You still have a bad attitude when asking for something.”
I turned my back on Dwight and the others, who were being swallowed up one by Sapenta.

I was coming out of the tunnel feeling relieved.
I saw a bright light coming from ahead.
It was a bright light that was incomparable to the lanterns held by prisoners mining magic stones.
I knew instinctively.
That light is derived from high-tech technology.
I secretly hid myself in a small recess in the wall of the tunnel.
– Jeopuk. Jeopuk. Jeopuk.
Their identity seen up close…
‘Robot?’
It was a humanoid robot made of metal, emitting bright light from its only eye embedded in the center.
A white cross mark is visible on the smooth metal shoulder.
The three robots ignored me, as if they couldn’t see me, who was clumsily hiding, and went inside the tunnel.
‘This is…’
Did Karaz Command sense that Dwight’s life was in danger and dispatch a medical ship?
I often saw medical ships flying around, but this was my first time seeing the contents inside.
There were robots in it, not people…
Does it mean that Zephyria’s labor costs are similar?
I stared at the light disappearing inside… And headed out of the tunnel again.
As expected, there was a medical ship with an open hangar floating near the entrance to the mine.
After catching a glimpse of it, I walked down the cliff.

Dwight’s trap is a friendship twist? In the end, I escaped and found Nora’s treatment center.
“… Are you going to be hospitalized?”
Nora looked me up and down when I came to the treatment center and gave me a questioning look.
Because I looked so fine.
She may look fine, but I used the power of deception to travel here.
People who saw me coming here from the west mine would have thought that I had been seriously injured.
I told Nora about what happened in the mine.
“… If something like that happened, and you were walking around so normal, wouldn’t you be suspicious?”
It’s a kind of victim cosplay.
“Sure… You might think so. Then, I’ll give you the room you stayed in before.”
Nora seemed to agree with my opinion.
“One more thing, won’t you tell Willas that I’m looking for you?”
“If you say Willas… Do you mean the leader of gamers?”
“That’s right.”
“Why him again?”
“That obnoxious guy is also an accomplice.”
I was planning to receive not only the remaining commission from Willas, but also the alimony for hospitalizing me.
