, 82. 14, Guide to Sin (5)
“To you? I don’t want much. If you have to ask, experience and s that?”
Taesan draws out his sword. The adventurers backed away screaming in fear.
However, the young man who first appeared was looking at Mount Tai with unwavering eyes.
Taesan smiled.
“Are you the most comfortable to talk to? Are you representative?”
“For now, yes.”
The young man calmly replied.
If Taishan wishes, he can tear them all apart. There is no use in running away. Their shelter, unable to go down the 20th floor, is obvious. It won’t be long before you will die.
However, instead of stabbing the sword, Taesan called them with words. The young man thought he wanted something from them.
And the young man’s prediction was correct
. Taesan stroked his chin and asked.
“What is your name?”
“It’s Gagarat.”
name was called It meant that he was thinking of keeping him alive because he didn’t need to know if he was going to kill him right away. The young man let out a sigh of relief.
Taesan put the sword in.
“Originally, I was thinking of killing them all, but it didn’t seem to mean much.”
The level has risen significantly, and now there is no big difference between them. Even if you defeat all of them, your level or stats
don’t rise much.
“you guys. Don’t you want to die?”
Everyone nodded. All of them were prepared to die, but they did not intend to die meaninglessly in this way.
Taesan said.
“Instead of letting them live, I only order one. Do not send my information to the guides of sin.”
“That means…
“literally. Things at the bottom don’t know about me.”
Those at the bottom will not be interested in the events of the second tier.
However, if an adventurer over twenty died, he would not show indifference. Not to mention, one third-tier adventurer died. Information about Taesan must have been conveyed to some extent. So the 13th floor side will also realize that the 30th floor was killed.
Then, no matter how arrogant they are, they cannot stand still. Interested or hostile, whatever. Maybe you can come down directly.
then it gets in trouble Even if he is strong,
he is not at the level to deal with those below him.
So they confuse the information.
Gargorat organized his thoughts with calmer eyes.
“You mean to convey false information.”
“answer. They probably don’t really care if the information you give them is true or false. Can’t you send it with a moderate amount of lies?”
“That’s… yes.”
In the first place, even Gagorath
had never seen the leadership in person. It was possible to tell lies as long as we were only communicating through the middle bridge.
“So tell me. That I died at your hands I thought of both sides with the adventurers on the 30th floor.”
Gargorat swallowed. It wasn’t impossible. It was possible.
But if so, it was the same as telling Taesan to help him go down.
He is the guide to sin. It was
the exact opposite of the group’s purpose
.
Taesan laughed as if he had read his thoughts.
“You didn’t join because you wanted to, did you?”
Gagorat laughed bitterly.
Taesan’s words are not wrong. There was no obsession with them that they had to protect the labyrinth. Even if there were, they disappeared the moment they were blocked on the 20th floor.
I just accepted it because I was ready to kill myself if I didn’t get an offer to join. Gagorath neatly organized his thoughts
.
“I will accept it.”
“Good.”
Taesan grinned.
The life that had been tied to them was released, and they gasped and exhaled.
“Just in case, if any of you send information to the bottom, I’m going to kill them all, so you better not be fooling around.”
“You don’t have to worry about that part. That person has already died at the hands of Taesan-nim.”
“That’s good.”
After tidying up, Taesan spoke to the ghost.
“Are you fine?”
[doesn’t care. The guy who killed me isn’t this kind of junk, it’s the guys below me.]
The ghost looked at Taesan with a look of wanting something. Taesan took a step back.
“Do whatever you feel like.”
[good. hey. Visil.]
“…It’s been a while since I’ve heard that nickname.”
Gargorat laughed bitterly. The warrior before he was alive called him that. I never thought I’d still remember it.
[okay. you. Long time no see?]
“Do you resent me?”
[What did you resent? I’m not interested.]
The ghost gritted his teeth as he spoke nonchalantly.
[I don’t know how to pee, but you would know. Who is the head who ordered me to kill?]
The one who contributed the most to killing the warrior.
[Don’t say you don’t know. There’s no way that much information didn’t go to you, the manager of the hierarchy.]
Gagorath, who was silent for a moment, opened his mouth.
“We hate you. You should have known that.”
[Can you not know? The weak are so jealous.]
The ghost snorted. He went down to the depths in a relatively short time. For a long time , they were the object of envy, envy, and hatred for those who were blocked
on a certain floor .
“But there were not many who wanted to do something with you. Because it is strong and could have been useful to us. Then one of them made a suggestion.”
Gargorat looked at the ghost.
“I want to kill you. There was a slight backlash, but before long your death was decided.”
[Who is that bastard?]
“You may prefer not to know.”
[That’s up to me to decide.]
Gagorat said in response to the annoyed answer.
“A woman who inherited the lineage of the cursed kingdom. gray woman. Society Gardenia.”
The ghost’s body shook greatly.
[…She did me?]
“At least that’s what I heard.”
[Why?]
The ghost’s voice contained only questions.
Gargorat shook his head.
“I do not know. So, when I heard about it, I was also surprised. Because he was the only high-ranking person you got along with.”
[…]
The ghost fell silent as if in shock.
“Follow him and you will see him. I hope to answer your questions.”
As he spoke quietly, Gagorath turned around.
Others
began to slink away with a relieved look on their faces. Taesan caught them.
“Where are you going?”
” yes?”
“I still have something to give you.”
Gargorat swallowed. Seeing them start to panic again, Taishan waved his hand.
“Information up to the 20th floor.”
“Ah…
Gagorat made an enlightened expression
.
They were allowed up to the 20th floor, so they figured out everything up to the 20th floor. It was only natural that Taesan, who was in the ascending position, wanted that.
They gave out all the information they knew. From the secret room to the god’s altar. And even existing NPCs.
“When you reach the 16th floor, there will be an empty room. There is a blacksmith there.”
Taesan’s eyes lit up. It was time to finally meet
the reason he had been collecting the ingredients
.
“good. You may go now.”
“…yes. thank you.”
they went away It won’t be long before news of Taesan’s death will reach the leadership.
All that was left was Taesan and the ghost in silence.
[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: Congratulations.]
[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: Yes yes…]
[Kang Jun-hyeok [Alone]: Won! won! I won!]
Lee Tae-yeon, who was somewhat bewildered, answered. Kang Jun-hyeok writes with a lot of excitement.
The reason they reacted like that was simple.
They are the gods of victory. Passed Baltazar’s ordeal.
[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: How do you feel?]
[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: Uh… I’m confused. To be honest, I still don’t get the sense that I’m awake.]
[Kang Jun-hyeok [alone]: That’s good! Cleared that madness! I was even rewarded for it! I love it!]
Taesan laughs at the completely opposite reaction. After making a lot of noise, Lee Tae-yeon seemed relieved.
[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: I managed to survive somehow.]
[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: How was it?]
The ordeal of unreinforced Baltazar. Taesan was also curious. Taeyeon Lee replied.
[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: It was dealing with what he feared the most. A huge spider came out and attacked me. ugh Horrible.]
[Kang Jun-hyeok [alone]: I’m an elephant.]
[Lee Tae-yeon [alone]: Are you afraid of elephants? It’s cute.]
[Kang Jun-hyeok [Alone]: You haven’t seen it yourself, so you can say it. Do you know
how frightening it is for that size to come to trample on you?
‘Victory against the thing you fear most. Is it an ordeal befitting the god of victory?’ The moment I saw it
, I could see the meaning to win with my heart against the enemy who shrank, breathed fast, and sweated .
Well, this year has passed.
‘What would come out of me?’
It could be the last apostle you saw. Either he or it could be a gigantic monster seen in the sky.
Taesan posted a post with a small question.
[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: Is the reward enough?]
[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: It’s full.]
God of victory. Balthazar’s basic reward is a belt of fighting spirit. The performance is attack power defense 3 and health and mana recovery when winning.
Offensive power is meaningless unless it is high, but recovery is of great value. In particular, Lee Tae-yeon and Kang Jun-hyeok are more meaningful because they do not have any recovery skills.
[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: I understand why Mr. Tae-san asked me to accept it. As for the reward for winning against a difficult enemy, the difference is quite
large.]
[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: But don’t overdo it. The capricious god exists at any time, so it would be better to receive it in moderation.]
Close the community after providing information such as appropriate advice and secret rooms.
Taesan opens his mouth.
“Are you ready to speak soon?”
[Should I tell you?]
“You have to tell me.”
Taesan calmly spoke in a sharp voice.
“I don’t like it when a quest that I’ve worked hard on fails due to the whim of the person involved.”
From the description of the ghost’s quest, it is written that it is decided according to the ghost’s heart.
Taesan had no intention of leaving a variable behind.
The ghost swayed quietly. A voice echoed in the shimmering remnants.
[It’s not a big story. I came here from a ruined world. I didn’t want to talk to them because the only thing there were monsters and
the only ones I could talk to were lunatics or idiots.] They didn’t talk
properly, but it must have been quite painful. Humans are social animals, and if you don’t interact with others, you will have mental problems.
[At least, she was a woman who could communicate. They had a certain sense of kinship because they were in a similar environment.]
“Did you like it?”
[…I had feelings. It wasn’t that far, but]
the ghost said calmly. The emotion
in his voice was less than before.
[But if she did the most to kill me, then I should do my part. I’m just curious. Why?]
“That’s it.”
I’ll meet you when I go down.
Taesan went downstairs and met the dwarves. The Dwarf was taken aback when he saw Taesan.
“How are you?”
“He said he would give you a new quest from here. I’m here to get it.”
Another quest instead of penalty play. Give it to me, the Dwarf said. However, the Dwarf hesitated before opening his mouth.
“I’m sorry, but I can’t give it to you.”
” yes?”
“No, this is not what I meant to give you.”
The Dwarf said as if making excuses.
“I told you. I’m John Zara, bound here. I’m constrained. It was fine until now, but is it time for you to go downstairs? It suddenly stopped me. I am also quite embarrassed right now.”
“Suddenly?”
“huh.”
Taesan tapped his cheek. The reason was roughly guessed.
‘Is it because of the level?’
Taesan’s level is now 41. It’s not a level you can get on the 14th floor. It was because he had won against the adventurers while going down the floor.
Stats aside, there was an imbalance up to the level, so it could have been a restriction. Taesan nodded, as understanding is a thin part.
“Then I can’t help it.”
“Umm… but it’s a promise, so why not say substitute, but how long have you been there?”
“There is about 30,000 gold.”
“Then, 20,000 gold pezuma. Take this.”
The dwarf threw the ring. Taesan reflexively caught it.
[Purple ring: Hongyoung]
[All stats + 3%]
[The ring received the energy of the sun
until the water falling on the rock crushed it.]
“…Really?”
“It’s true that I couldn’t keep my promise. I have to repay him.”
The Dwarf said calmly.
Taesan received the ring with a bewildered feeling. It was reduced by 50% through penalty play, but it was still 50,000 gold, so I thought I would be able to live only after going down about 20 floors, but I never imagined that I would get it like this.
“thank you.”
Still, it was a good thing, so it was too much to go quietly. A gain of 20,000 gold. I don’t know what kind of quest it will be, but it will sound better than this.
“Then are you going down now?”
“Because I have nothing to do other than that.”
The Dwarf, who had been looking at Mount Tae for a while, burst into laughter.
“I can see why you are restricted. It will take less than an hour.”
“see you later.”
15th floor. Clearing the entry quest, Tae-san thinks.
‘There’s nothing to be gained.’
Skills can only be obtained when you are of a certain level with your opponent. Until now, the level was not so high that it was possible to acquire it, but now the level has risen too high. It was impossible to acquire the skill.
so go down fast Until you acquire the skill, up to the floor where Spirituality Rise normally activates.
There is nothing to get in the way by getting information from the second-tier adventurers. I know the location of all the secret rooms up to the 20th floor.
Taesan, which had descended slowly, passed through the room at a rapid pace.
Level up with skill
