Chapter 201 – Beyond the 21st Floor
“Ecchu! Etchu!”
Fortuna sneezes repeatedly like a rhinitis patient suffering from pollen allergy.
He is crying as if he is in quite a bit of pain and asking for help.
Jun chuckled at that cute and idiotic look, took out a tissue and put it directly on her nose.
“Okay, hmm.”
“Hmm!”
Fortuna blew her nose vigorously.
I could clearly feel the tissue getting wet from her sticky snot.
Although she felt uncomfortable, Jun didn’t care at all and wiped her nose thoroughly.
My cute and lovely wife, whom everyone would envy, loves me with all her heart, so why can’t I accept even a single snot from her?
Even if it was poop and urine, she was happy to accept it if it was hers.
‘Well, something like that wills never actually happen.’
Fortuna, the angel, did not urinate.
It wasn’t like I was idolizing a celebrity like a huge fan, it was completely true.
Other than that, the composition of the body fluids was slightly different, but she was no different from the highest level of holy water.
Even this snot was meant to be holy water.
So even if you eat it like this…
“It’s delicious! Why do you keep trying to eat that!”
“It would be a waste to just throw away holy water? And don’t worry too much. To me, it’s no different from a reward.”
“Still, it doesn’t work! Never! Not! “Ah-chu!”
Fortuna, who was startled, sneezed once again.
A reward that flows naturally, no, snot.
Jun said, ignoring Fortuna’s slight protest, “Uuuuu))]]]]” That Jun wiped her nose and ignored whether Fortuna would protest slightly.
“If you hate it so much, why don’t you wear a mask and goggles now?”
“That’s not it~. It’s frustrating.”
Cute nose-blind sound.
In her heart, she wanted to do as she pleased, but unfortunately, she was not in the right circumstances.
The theme of the 20th floor is tropical rainforest.
But now with extreme poison.
Everything around us was extremely toxic, the mud stuck our feet, and the high temperature and humidity made the conditions worst.
In addition, monsters have begun to demonstrate their abilities in earnest.
Unlike before, which was relatively easy, the difficulty level on the 20th floor was extremely vicious.
And that will continue to be the case.
It was not for nothing that there was a saying among adventurers that the true adventure begins only after entering the 20th floor.
“So. Do you want to keep suffering like that? Huh?”
The air was also extremely poisonous.
There is nothing wrong with drinking it right now, but if you drink it more than a certain amount, it can lead to paralysis, hallucinations, addiction, and death, so an ordinary adventurer should avoid drinking it as much as possible.
Well, it was no different from pesky pollen that caused an allergy to the angel Fortuna, but even that minor symptom was fatal in battle.
If it could be sunk, it had to be sunk. Even if you have to endure some inconvenience.
“Ugh. Junie is grumpy.”
Although Fortuna complained, she accepted the mask and goggles that Jun gave her.
Both were magic tools exclusively for the 20th floor with a gas poison spell engraved on them, and were only able to protect against the extreme poison in the air.
Excited!
Wow!
After some time after forcing Fortuna to wear a mask and goggles, she finally encountered the monster on the 20th floor.
The identity of the monster that appeared was Rainbow Mamba, nicknamed Reba.
She assimilates into her surroundings with scales that can change into seven different colors, and when her prey approaches, she uses her unique quick movements to inject extreme poison in the blink of an eye.
He was so sneaky and quick that if he got caught by the wrong guy, he could get away without even doing anything.
As a result, even though it was a regular monster, it was considered one of the most difficult enemies on the 20th floor.
However, for Jun, who had activation and radar, it was no different from a tree branch blocking his path.
“Troublesome.”
Wedge!
Shaaa!
Instead of chopping down the tree branches blocking his path, Jun nonchalantly launched a slash into the empty sky.
At the same time, a Leba darted out from the nearby grass.
Suddenly!
Fight! Fighting!
Due to the slash, Reva was cut into two pieces.
It was divided so precisely that it felt as if Reva had voluntarily jumped into the range of the slash.
Wow
Reba’s writhing body crumbled into powder and disappeared, leaving behind one of her blue magic stones, seven colored scales, and a piece of her intestines that looked like a poisonous bag.
All three were by-products purchased expensively from the guild.
Dohwa, who is responsible for the family’s household account, nodded in satisfaction at the fairly generous compensation for the futile end.
“Hmm. The compensation is quite generous. “At this rate, I think it would be better to catch everything on the way, even if it’s not necessary to search for it.”
“I guess I’ll finally have some left over.”
Following Dohwa, Jun also nodded with satisfaction.
To be honest, the phenomenon of the Jun family could not be said to be good, even in good terms.
I hunted all the monsters I encountered, consistently completed the guild’s requests, and acquired many Easter eggs, but the income was not much due to the low level.
Well, I did earn several times more than a party adventuring on the same floor.
However, that income alone could not cover the enormous expenses of her wives.
Angel and Shinsoo ate almost an entire cart’s worth of snacks every day, and whenever Black got free time, he bought expensive toys to play with and then exploded.
Naturally, the monthly settlement amount in the household account book was recorded as negative every month.
Because of this, the sales proceeds from Cerberus that remained even after decorating Dowonhyang were slowly coming to an end.
‘I shouldn’t say this, but I’m really glad the flooding happened.’
The guild gave Jun, who showed an overwhelming performance in the flood, an exorbitant amount of compensation.
The compensation was like a ray of light for Jun, who was worried about his family finances because he had two more wives.
‘But it was only a stopgap measure; the fundamental problem (low income, high spending) had to be solved. You can rest assured now.’
Fortunately, it seems like the plan to drastically reduce Angel and Shinsu’s snacks can be left buried.
“Huh? Por, for some reason I feel very relieved. Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
“… Well. Why is it doing that all of a sudden?”
Jun played it off.
“Sir, where are the others? “If you let me know, I will show you all the albums.”
Dohwa finally ignited his will to hunt.
For your information, she said that even if she caught them before, she didn’t have much money, so she focused on supporting other family members rather than catching monsters.
I wanted to comply with his will and tell him right away, but Jun shook her head.
“Reba’s last one was just now. “The others are a little further away.”
“Yes? Aren’t these snakes moving around in groups of two or three? “It was definitely included in the guild’s information book.”
“Yes, I know that too. Well, it’s probably due to the effects of flooding.”
“… Haa~. These guys are really unhelpful.”
“Well, don’t be so disappointed. Since there are layers, other guys will definitely make money.”
Jun informed Dohwa in detail of the locations of the monsters caught on the radar.
Dohwa immediately summoned a pile of pink birds and flew them to that location.
Even if it was an elite monster in the late 20th floor, pink birds were enough to deal with monsters in the early 20th floor.
Good luck! Shoot! Coogung! Wedge!
Keek! Aww! Boooook!
After a while, the sound of various attributes pouring down and the roar of monsters began to be clearly heard beyond the thick bushes.
Ordinary women would have screamed as soon as they heard it, but Dohwa smiled beautifully like a flower in full bloom every time she heard the sound.
To be honest, it was a bit like that.
Rebecca’s madness was already enough.
Rebecca carefully approached Jun and asked Jun, who was wondering whether to stop Do-hwa from awakening to madness.
“My dear, can I use Reva’s poison sac?”
“Huh? What and how are you going to use it?”
“We will try to mix a useful poison.”
“Did you know you could do something like that? “I heard you only learned alchemy related to bombs?”
“…”
Instead of answering Jun’s question, Rebecca smiled bitterly as if she was troubled.
The only time she smiled like this was when she was about to say something.
“Okay, I guess it’s related to your family.”
This is when stories related to her own family come up.
“I’m sorry, honey.”
“Don’t apologize, Rebecca. I told you so many times. “If you want to talk, then talk about it.”
Even though Rebecca talked about everything else about her past, she kept her family a complete secret.
She also didn’t tell me why.
Since it was her parents’ house, Jun wanted to at least know where it was, but seeing Rebecca’s face as if she was afraid of something, Jun didn’t force himself to ask.
I just waited for her to trust me and tell me on her own.
Well, I made a rough guess.
‘Although she is only a little inferior to Fortuna and Dohwa, Rebecca’s appearance is far superior to that of her other elves. In addition, among her attribute superpowers, she has developed the rarest dark attribute and the highest level attribute called ‘ignorance’.’
It was virtually impossible to be born like that without her reincarnation privilege or great bloodline.
According to the examination of every inch of her body, there were no stigmata anywhere on her body, so she must be in the latter case.
‘Families with great bloodlines are almost all high-ranking families. And it will be the same for Rebecca’s family.’
Otherwise, there was no way I could have advanced to expert level in bomb alchemy, which costs the most money among alchemies.
‘Well, considering the money Rebecca has been spending these days, she must be from a pretty high-ranking family, right? Would I be satisfied in such a family?’
I was a little worried, but Jun immediately laughed it off and said it was no good.
After all, he is the spouse of a warrior and a saint, so how could he not be satisfied? An ordinary aristocratic family would welcome you with open arms.
‘Well, it might be different if you were the royal family of a country, but I guess so. Yes, there is no way Rebecca is a princess.’
Jun ignored it and desperately pretended not to notice.
The saying that you can catch people.
