Chapter 138 – Beyond the 10th Floor
After receiving all the rewards from the 10th floor, Jun finished the adventure and returned to the surface as she had told her wives.
“Uh? Semi-adventurer?”
The guild staff waiting at the sanctuary (transfer site) looked surprised when they saw him and his wives.
However, that was only a short while, because of her accident (revealing results), another guild employee immediately told Carol to wait a moment and contacted her after taking out her communication crystal ball.
Carol came to me a month after receiving the call. She had a very tired face, just like when I met her before she left on her adventure.
However, when she quickly rolled her eyes and confirmed that Jun and his wives were fine, she seemed relieved and greeted Jun and his wives with a bright smile.
“Welcome, everyone. “This adventure ended very early.”
“I got a pretty good-looking item through an Easter egg. “I wanted to get it appraised quickly, so I just came out through the new product.”
Before Jun returned, he gave the false reason for his return and looked around through radar.
As soon as I finished speaking, I noticed an adventurer who was pretending not to be like that but secretly listening to what I was saying, leaving the sanctuary at a fast pace.
‘It was there as expected.’
Jun discovered the existence of a spy watching the movement, but he did not move to catch him.
What was just said through the spy would be reported to the person behind this incident, but that was exactly what Jun wanted.
The later it was revealed that the two parties and the three men in black were dead, the better it was for Jun.
The longer it is late, the longer it will be for the person behind this incident, who encouraged the two parties and supported the three men in black, to send the next assassin.
Honestly, I was able to get through this attack easily because I was really lucky.
If one of the men in black had not been killed in the field using the rail gun, the attack would have been quite close, if not classic.
That person in black could definitely have transformed into a yellow-level monster.
‘If I was unlucky, I would have had to use fusion.’
As such, the enemy’s power mobilized for this attack was by no means weak.
If Fortuna and Dohwa had not been able to use their human modes, their strength would have been enough to defeat them.
It was bad news.
It means that the person behind this incident is serious about killing this group.
If it turns out that the raid was a failure, they will definitely mobilize stronger forces for the raid.
It’s still close without using fusion, but if stronger power is mobilized…
‘Is it possible? I have to run away without looking back.’
But you can’t just run away.
Therefore, we had to delay as much as possible the failure of the raid being revealed and build up our strength in the meantime.
The reason he gave a false reason for his return and left the spy alone was a stepping stone for him.
“Oh my, congratulations. Would you like me to appraise it right away?”
Carol responded by clapping.
However, if you look closely, you can see that although her mouth is smiling, her eyes are serious. She seemed to have realized that the reason for her return was false and that something had happened.
Well, she knows very well that money and items are not in short supply here, so her reason for returning must have sounded strange.
“Yes!”
Jun smiled and agreed to Carol’s suggestion so that any remaining spies would not be suspicious.
“Is there one appraisal room left? What about the appraisal? Yes, please be ready. I’m going right now. Jun, I heard that one of the appraisal rooms is empty at the moment. Let’s go.”
With June’s consent, Carol immediately took out her communication crystal ball from her purse and contacted her office. When she received a satisfactory answer, she hurriedly took the lead.
She led Jun and his wives to one of the evaluation rooms, closed the door to the evaluation room, activated all security-related tools, and asked Jun.
“Jun, can you take everyone here, including you and me, and teleport to the guild leader’s room?”
Since it was obvious why he was asking such a question, Jun didn’t bother to ask the reason and immediately considered the chance.
“It is possible as long as you are not surrounded by protective magic.”
“I thought so, so I contacted you earlier. Please check if it is possible.”
“Okay.”
Jun closed his eyes and focused his mind on the radar.
Since she had been there a few times, he was able to quickly find the guild leader’s office.
As it is an important facility for the guild, it should have been surrounded by protective magic, but as Carol said, the protective magic has now been lifted.
“It is possible.”
“Then I’ll ask you a favor.”
After Carol said that, she was shy and hesitated about whether to extend her hand.
It seemed like they knew that teleportation, which is done instantly rather than using a magic circle, requires a part of the caster’s body to be in contact with them in order to move together.
Jun, who learned a lesson from this attack not to give his woman any space for nothing, quickly takes action before she reaches out for her hand,
Tak!
She activated the teleport by snapping her fingers.
The surrounding background changed in the blink of an eye.
Hwiyu~
“There really was no mark, but you teleported.”
“… Haa~. In addition, they moved together even though no part of their bodies were touching. If other wizards find out about this, they will definitely be shocked and upset.”
The guild leader, who was lying on the sofa in the center of the office, whistled and admired the appearance of Jun and his companions.
Carol looked resigned for a moment, but then she sighed and joined in the exclamation.
“Huh? “Wait a minute.”
The guild leader, who had been teasingly giggling and poking Carol’s side, suddenly made a serious expression and began to look at Jun intently.
“Guild leader? Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
“…”
Carol was puzzled by her change in attitude and asked the reason, but she did not take her eyes off Jun.
Jun, who had a rough idea of what she was doing, grinned and increased the output of her triple core just a little.
A very small amount of energy left over from the summoning of Fortuna and Peach Blossoms stirred within each core.
It was only for a moment, but the guild leader was able to notice.
His energy has clearly become stronger than before.
“… Babe, what on earth happened?”
“I came all the way here just to tell you, so don’t stare at me like that.”
Contrary to the expectation that the guild leader would make fun of him and call him a monster with both admiration and disgust, the guild leader huffed and got angry.
Jun immediately confessed what happened in the boss room because he felt like he would be criticized if he went out and asked people to praise me for no reason.
As a bonus, the adventurers’ observer that Dohwa had quickly packed away was also taken out from Dowonhyang and placed on the table.
“You bastards! If they are going to be destroyed, they will do so quietly among themselves. Why are they bringing in innocent adventurers?”
“It’s the devil’s token. I’ve seen it in old records of the church. If I remember correctly, it was one of the factors that created many immoral people during the last war and gave them monster powers, causing great damage to humanity.”
The guild leader was indignant that the innocent adventurers had died, and Carol was saddened that the symbol that had caused great damage to humanity had reappeared.
Jun and his wives waited in silence for the women to control their emotions.
After a while, the guild leader sighed and said.
“Whew~. Anyway, you worked hard, kid. And congratulations. “I came face to face with the wall of superhumanity.”
“That’s Okay. “What a great thing.”
“Haha. Are you upset because your sister didn’t respond favorably from the beginning? Cute child. “Come here, my sister will give you a hug.”
The guild leader grins and spreads his arms as if to give him a hug.
Jun lifted his hips halfway as if he was fascinated by her generous spirit that naturally stood out.
‘June! ‘No!’
‘Husband! Come to your senses!’
‘My dear! Have you forgotten the age of the guild leader?’
However, while he was taking off the other half, he heard the wives’ cries and stopped his actions.
‘Gun~’
Jun was deeply distressed.
At first glance, the guild leader appears to be a mature, beautiful woman in her mid to late 30s, but in fact, she is the same age as Leonard.
It was said that she was a grandmother who was not surprised to have not only her children but also grandchildren around Jun’s age.
Although her breasts are just as amazing as Rebecca’s, it’s a little bit tempting to covet the breasts of an old man who is several times more expensive than hers…
‘Do you have any concerns?’
She slowly turned her head and looked at her wives.
Min lived half a hundred years longer than her, and Max didn’t even dare…
‘My Juni, what are you thinking now? Huh?’
‘My lord, if you think more than that, you and your wife will die.’
‘S-sorry!’
In response to the sad voice and anger coming through the strings of his soul, Jun quickly apologized and put his butt back on the sofa.
He didn’t want to die yet.
“What, you’re not coming.”
“… Yes.”
“Haha. You said yes, but why are you looking so upset? “Now it looks like he’s been captured.”
“During the day. Instead, I win at night.”
When I said calmly as if I didn’t care, the guild leader glanced at Rebecca.
Rebecca cleared her throat and averted her gaze, but she did not deny the words.
“Oh! Our little boy, his face is calm like that of a herbivore, but his lower body looks fierce like an animal. It won’t work. “This sister just checked…”
“Guild leader!”
“It’s a joke, a joke. Well, was it too much of a prank for a virgin?”
When the guild leader said that with a sly smile, Carol blushed brightly and huffed.
But she couldn’t open her mouth, as if she didn’t have anything to say in response. I guess she must be a virgin. Obviously, Carol’s age is not that young…
“Jun, what are you thinking about right now? Yes?”
“… I’m sorry.”
Jun crawled on his own.
“Ha~. That’s Okay. Rather, is it true that we faced the wall of superhumans that the guild leader mentioned earlier?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“I absorbed three yellow-level monsters and two green-level adventurers, but I’m not going to face them and cut them down. Well, considering my age, it’s something to freak out about.”
The Wall of Supermen.
This is a word that metaphorically expresses the limitations faced just before the core grade rises from green to yellow.
The term limit here is used in two senses.
One refers to the limits of human ability, and the other refers to the limits of talent.
When the core grade rises to the yellow level, the ability of the person with this ability will grow significantly, incomparable to previous growth.
Just like a bird inside an egg breaks the egg it was trapped in and comes out into the world and stretches.
From this point on, people with superpowers came to be called superhumans who threw off the human womb.
However, the sweeter the fruit, the more difficult it is for everyone to enjoy it.
Because of that, countless people sat down in front of the wall of superhumanity, became angry and despaired.
You can rise to the green level as long as you put in effort, money, and time, but to get to the yellow level, only one thing was needed: talent.
That’s not something trivial, it’s something worth throwing off the human womb.
“From that perspective, you have nothing to worry about. I can assure you that your talent is equal to or better than that of a warrior. Rebecca, you too will be at the same level.”
“Then I feel relieved.”
“Joy! “It goes without saying.”
Jun and Rebecca were relieved by the guild leader’s assurance.
In Rebecca’s case, it was even greater because it had been almost 10 years since she faced the wall of superhumanity.
“Ruler! I’ve heard everything from you, so let’s end the conversation here. Baby, hurry up and go home. You must be tired after just finishing the battle. “I will tell you about the next attack and what happened outside during your adventure when I come next time, so for now, get some rest.”
‘This older sister doesn’t look like anything in particular, but she takes good care of me in a secret way.’
“All right. Ah, before that.”
Jun opened Dowonhyang and took out the captured hunter party.
He naturally became aware of Dowonhyang’s presence, but did not pay any heed to it. A few months ago, he must have already discovered his existence to Carol by bringing livestock such as chickens and pigs into Dowon Township.
“Are these guys?”
“How should I cook it?”
As expected, neither Carol nor the guild leader showed any signs of surprise, even though they had taken a person out of a subspace where people were not normally allowed.
I was just wondering how to punish the hunter party that killed the innocent adventurers.
Flinch! Flinch!
Did they instinctively realize what kind of future awaits them?
Even though they were unconscious, their bodies were shaking.
