Chapter 171 – Flooding
A huge pit reminiscent of a blue hole.
The inside was like an abyss, with no end in sight, and a black fog made of demonic energy flowed out continuously.
A sight that will naturally bring fear and discomfort to those who see it.
However, Jun calmly threw himself into the pit.
Tak!
Before he could even feel the floating feeling, the field that was about to dry out supported him.
Fortuna, who had her eyes tightly closed, smiled sheepishly, “Hehe.”
“Por, you know how to fly, so why are you so scared?”
“But~.”
“But. Even though I know it’s not that deep.”
The reason the pit looked like an abyss was simply due to the erosion of space.
The actual depth was not that much. About 3 meters at most?
It may be dangerous to the public, but in Fortuna’s case, it was so high that even a fingernail would not hurt her if she fell.
“Tell me honestly. Are you doing that because you want to be cute from me? Huh? Huh?
She raised her fingers and poked them here and there on Fortuna’s body.
“Ah. Don’t do it. Por, you’re going to be angry. Ah!”
Although Fortuna was pleased with his prank, she pretended to be disgusted and scratched and bit his finger.
Of course, slightly so that he doesn’t get hurt. However, she did so violently to stimulate his sadistic nature.
“What? “What?”
“Your Majesty, even a notebook. Even the notebook!”
As she wished, Jun was very happy.
He looked so happy that Dohwa, who felt left out, blushed and opened his mouth as if he was embarrassed and joined in the prank.
Jun began to walk slowly while playing with the cute and adorable fairy and spirit.
Fog that you can’t see an inch ahead.
The moon vaguely shows its presence.
The darkness hovers around like a wild cat.
Although it was a bit old, a familiar scene unfolded.
That’s right.
The pit, beyond the hole my father-in-law had drilled, was naturally connected to the first floor of the labyrinth, which was directly connected to this world.
Therefore, it was possible to enter the first floor of the labyrinth directly through that hole.
Even if you were targeting floors other than the first floor.
As soon as the guild found out, he immediately chose the first floor of the labyrinth as the battlefield, and no one objected to that choice.
Because no one wants their living space to become a battlefield.
Moreover, there was no need to worry about the labyrinth’s characteristic of increasing difficulty as more people gathered.
There is absolutely no reason to object.
‘The pit is truly a godsend.’
What is the biggest reason why many people cannot gather in the labyrinth?
It was because of the food problem.
As more people gather, food consumption increases.
In a labyrinth where food supply was almost impossible, that law was a very fatal problem.
However, thanks to being able to immediately procure food through the pit, the guild was able to put human resources into the first floor of the labyrinth without any worries.
Once human resources were secured, the remaining side effects were virtually resolved.
All you have to do is purify the accumulating magic energy with the sacred barriers of the priests, and block the enormous amount of monsters that are flocking in with an equally enormous amount of human resources.
Now the first floor of the labyrinth was no different from the realm of humanity.
It happened just because a hole was created. What should we call this if not an act of God?
Well, there was a side effect of the demonic energy inside the labyrinth spreading out into the world, but that was a problem that could be solved by stopping the monsters from flooding and quickly filling the hole.
“Stop! Who is there! Reveal your identity!”
Just as he was praising his father-in-law for his excellent moves, someone stopped him.
Because of the thick fog, the other party did not seem to be able to identify the enemy, but Jun was able to identify the enemy in advance through radar, so he obediently revealed his identity.
“I am an adventurer at the adventurer camp.”
“Where am I wandering around alone?”
“We are transporting supplies.”
“Supplies? How shamelessly lie on a subject you have nothing on! “I will arrest you with a raised hand, so kneel down!”
Sreung! Sreungsreung!
The other person, who appeared to be a knight from the noble camp, shouted loudly and drew his sword.
Then, the knights who appeared to be his companions also drew their swords one after another.
“Ha~. It’s terrible again.”
Jun grabbed his head and cursed.
My patience was slowly reaching its limit as it had already been repeated several times.
“What! Damn it! “How dare you a petty adventurer!”
“Then what do you call damn it? A subject who clearly knows who I am but is acting like he doesn’t know. Are you guys really knights? “Aren’t you a clown?”
“You bastard! How dare you insult our honor!”
“Joy! What kind of honor is honor to a subject who is acting as his master tells him to do even though he knows it is a wrong order? “You are the ones who insult my honor, you bastards.”
“Urg! Profit! Die!”
The knights could not hold back their anger and rushed at him.
Jun’s patience was suddenly cut short by their behavior of ignoring their own mistakes and taking care of their pride.
Oh, nice meeting you today. Please give me a scolding.
“Will you punish me too?”
“Socheop will also be here to help.”
Puck! Puck!
“A million!” “Geong!”
When Jun decided to fight, the fairy and spirit, who were looking for an opportunity to scold them, quickly jumped out and body-slammed them.
Two of the five knights fell to the floor without being able to do anything.
“Thompson! Genedy!”
“You bastards!”
“Who wants to tremble at whom?”
“These are truly pathetic things.”
The Fairy and Spirit, who evaded the swords that the two knights swung indignantly with high aerobatics, immediately counterattacked them.
The knights once again fell to the ground in vain. How on earth did he become a knight with such skills?
“Uh? “Huh?”
“Hey, what are you doing? They said they would kill me. Where did the momentum from earlier go?”
Perhaps it was left behind on purpose, but the only knight standing was the one who was acting ridiculously.
Jun was grateful for the consideration of his two wives and shortened the distance between him and the knight.
“Now, wait! “How dare you attack us and still get away with it!”
“Uh. “I think he’ll be very fine.”
“Profit! “If you touch me, my master will laugh!”
“I didn’t send you because that master couldn’t touch me. “Doesn’t your head spin like that?”
Jun asked a question, but the knight, who was struck by his fist, could not answer his question.
“What happens now?”
There was no worry about the knights’ retaliation in the future.
Because the one who drew the sword first was over there, and there are guilds and denominations behind this side.
I was just wondering whether to leave the knights as is or take them with me.
I wanted to leave it like this, but if I lost my life to a monster, I would be in trouble.
“Ah, that’s good. Tatsu! It’s here! Help me!”
While I was thinking like that, a familiar person was found on the radar.
He shouted in that direction, and soon several adventurers, including Tatsu, came closer.
“It was you, after all. Huh? Well, I guess I did something in the end.”
“Haha! When I looked at him, he collapsed in one hit without even trying anything.”
“Anyway, those knights only show off and have no real meaning.”
Looking at the knights scattered on the floor, Tatsu and the adventurers laughed at them as if they were ugly.
It has to be that way because there is a lot of accumulated sediment.
“Friend, you are having a hard time too. “I wonder if these guys are getting screwed.”
“It’s bad to be too proud.”
Noble masters who followed us to the labyrinth city to impress the warrior.
They had given up their grudge against Jun due to warnings from the guild and the church, but when they entered the lawless area of the labyrinth, they began to show their resentment again.
Because of that, Jun had to experience the same thing as before from time to time.
He didn’t want to make a big deal out of it, so he ignored it and ran away, but now he was so annoyed that he couldn’t just watch.
We’ll see. Some people think they stay still because they have no strength.
“So what are you going to do?”
“I’m going to lock these guys up in our camp and complain to their owners to formally apologize.”
“Will it work out? “I think I’m going to criticize these guys for their arbitrariness.”
“I want to ask the warrior, the saint, and the elves for help. “Friendship and face-to-face should be used in times like this.”
Heroes and saints were able to detect lies to some extent due to God’s protection, and elves were able to detect lies due to their racial characteristics.
If, with their help, they find out that there are young masters behind the knights, the young masters will have no choice but to make a choice.
Should I apologize honestly or abandon the knights?
“Probably the latter.”
“I agree. Anyway, there are more people out there. Hey guys. Let’s move these guys together. It’s shift time anyway.”
“If you help me, I’ll buy you a cold beer.”
Oh!!
The adventurers cheered and grabbed the knights by the neck one by one.
With that help, Jun arrived at the adventurer camp consisting of adventurers and church troops, left the knights in the camp’s temporary prison, and then headed straight to the barracks where the warrior and saint were.
“Hello, uncle. “Is there a warrior or a saint in the barracks?”
“Haha. Hello, Fortuna. The saint is alone in the barracks. “The warrior went up to the ground for a meeting.”
Fortuna waved happily to the paladins standing guard in front of the barracks and told them her business.
Then the Holy Knights, who looked as hard as stones, smiled brightly and answered her question.
When she was setting up camp, Fortuna, who was angry at the constant attacks from the undead, used her power several times. After that, whenever the priests saw Fortuna, they became disarmed.
“There is a problem with the noble camp. Can I report it to the saint?”
“Please wait a moment. “I’ll be back soon with your questions.”
The paladin called the barracks door and announced that I had come. Then she heard Iris’ voice telling her to let her in right away.
“Let’s go in.”
“Thank you.”
I passed the paladin and stood in front of the barracks door.
The moment you open the door and go inside,
Sigh
Jun, thinking of a funny idea, smiled mischievously and held his left forearm with his right hand.
Then she stepped into the barracks, looking as if she was enduring as much pain as possible.
“What’s going on that’s why you’re coming here? I’m so busy already… What! Are you really hurt?”
She gasped and came closer when she saw Iris, who had been blurting out words while doing paperwork, grab her forearm.
Her eyes as she looked at her forearm were full of sincere concern.
As a result,
“Iris!”
“Aaaaah! What, what!”
Jun forgot that he was joking and hugged Iris tightly.
Iris’s face turned bright red in an instant.
She seemed very embarrassed, but she couldn’t struggle and just stayed still for fear of worsening her wounds.
Is it because of her affection? Or is it because of her huge breasts?
Her heart felt very warm. The fall may not be far away now.
“Hey, let this go. “I need to treat the wound.”
“Oh, it’s a joke. It’s a joke.”
“… What?”
“It was a joke.”
June grinned and turned her shoulder to show her own forearm.
“Hey, you wolf cub!”
The saint’s face turned bright red differently than before.
