“yes?”
Grabbing the arm of the puzzled Sword Demon and holding Lilith in my arms, I used my newly acquired skill.
“Skill sharing Choi Bong-sik ‘The Ruler of Space’.”
It’s the first time I, the main body, have used it, but when the effect of the power of ‘Proliferating God’s Thumb’ disappeared and I was merged again, the memories he went through were shared with me.
The events of fighting the monsters sent by ‘Kang-shik and the Beast of Deception’, who accepted Bong-sik as a follower, gained his skills, and challenged me to a festival of gods, were as vivid as if I had actually experienced them.
Flash!
In the twinkling of an eye, the scenery we were in changed with a strange sense of space being folded.
To the foot of the mountain in the backcountry of Jirisan, where people do not reach.
Bongsik is limited to moving only 2km at a time, but I seemed to be able to move hundreds of kilometers at a time if I set my mind to it.
The Sword Demon admired the scenery around him.
“Unbelievable! The sword god’s power is so low that I can’t even fathom it! You can even move through space! huh? By the way, sword god? Why?”
The Sword Demon looked at me with worried eyes as I sat down while holding my head.
It’s not that there’s something wrong with it.
‘Come to think of it, I didn’t even have to travel by car!’
It should have been possible to move through space from the beginning.
Am I an idiot?
I have nothing to say even if the readers who read my writing curse at me for being crazy.
I sighed and stood up.
“…The place Kangwoo hyung-nim talked about was around here, so let’s split up and search for the dungeon.”
“John name! Just trust me! Sword God!”
– Wow!
We searched the dungeon while scattered.
After searching around for about an hour, Lilith called us in a hurry saying that she had found something.
“…Hey, is this a real dungeon?”
– Wow!
Something very different from what I thought was right in front of my eyes.
[ I am the only god who goes to the dungeon (2) ]
“…I’m embarrassed. Maybe good?”
– That’s strange. I’ve never had anything like that happen in the rounds so far.
Good food!
The black kite, which was flying while clutching the mouse in its claws, saw me and ran away in fright.
Well, when you see a human being on the phone in the sky, it’s worth it.
Since I was in the mountains, I couldn’t catch the radio waves well, so I moved to the sky where radio waves could be caught by walking in the air, one of the Heavenly Demon’s martial arts, and was on the phone with Kang Woo.
-We will investigate whether other variables intervene.
“Yes, if you have any information, please contact me.”
I hung up the phone and returned to the dungeon in question.
There is a Korean proverb that says, ‘Even a rat’s hole has a day to shine’.
And there was a dungeon the size of a mouse hole in front of me.
“Stop it, Lilith.”
I stopped Lilith, who was whimpering and poking her head into the hole.
It’s a dungeon that’s very different from what I know.
Usually when you think of dungeons, terrifying monsters jump out of them and it’s a terrifying place like the symbol of the apocalypse, but what is in front of me right now.
‘It’s cute…’
Shiiik!
It looked like an ordinary rat burrow except for a faint black haze like smoke coming out of a rice cooker right before cooking.
Even if you lie down on the ground and look through the hole, you will see nothing but gloomy darkness.
What kind of monster is coming out of here?
“Could a rat monster come out?”
Still, since it was my first dungeon, I expected a lot and thought I might be able to make a contribution, but I’m disappointed.
It is said that Kangwoo used the subjugation right of this dungeon as a bait in his previous life to persuade SSS-class Lois, the world’s strongest hunter.
At least it wasn’t a rat hole back then, was it?
What’s wrong?
‘Well, I’ve had a bad feeling since the car accident.’
When my eyes met, the sword demon flinched as if it were being stabbed.
There is no other point, so I have no choice but to wait for Kang-woo to contact me.
growl!
Then I heard the sound of hunger above my head.
It was a release.
“Are you hungry?”
Lilith nodded her head shyly, caressing her flushed cheeks with her small hands.
I’m going out a bit too.
“Do you have anything to eat, Mr. Black Demon?”
Then the face of the sword demon turned pale as if the world had collapsed.
Come to think of it, it seemed like he prepared a lot for going to the dungeon, but he died with a burned-out supercar.
“Wait a minute! Sword God! I will catch even a wild boar!”
“No, there is nothing like that.”
I stopped the Sword Demon, who was poised to hunt at any moment.
I have the skill of Bongsik.
It’s a bit annoying, but I’ll have to move to a place like a convenience store and buy something to eat. I really like this newly acquired skill.
“I am waiting for a moment. Skill sharing Choi Bong-sik ‘The ruler of space.’”
Flash!
The space was distorted and my body was about to move to a convenience store near my house.
Tring!
-warning! warning!
– Distortion of causality has occurred!
Godmaker, who was in his arms, suddenly reacted.
‘uh? What is this?’
While I was perplexed by Godmaker’s message that I heard suddenly, the space split and something like a dark black hole appeared in front of me.
Haze like tentacles radiated from it and wrapped around my whole body like a spider’s web.
Shu Shu Shuk!
“The Giant Sword God!”
– Wow!
Leaving behind the shouts of the Sword Demon and Lilith, my body was sucked into an unknown abyss.
* * *
“Where are we?”
I was at the foot of Jirisan Mountain just before.
But what was spread out in front of me now was neither a mountain nor a convenience store, but a strange cave.
Wriggling wriggling!
As if they were inside the intestines of an animal, the reddish outer walls of the cave wriggled as if they were alive.
When I put my hand on it, I could feel the sticky liquid and even the warmth as if it were alive.
I once tried to write a genre novel with a hunter as the main character.
I researched various materials for writing, and the characteristics of the representative dungeons I researched at that time were very similar to this cave now.
Tring!
– You entered the dungeon ‘Ruins of God of Harmony’.
Godmaker reacted as if to confirm it.
I tried to see if it would work, but of course it failed.
Because the dungeon itself is a different space, blocking all radio waves.
‘By the way, do you become a god maker? What the hell is this all about?’
One day, I thought about the identity of this mysterious app that suddenly appeared to me, but there was no way that the answer would come out.
‘Let’s get out of here for now.’
It’s a place where you don’t want to stay for a long time, just standing there.
“Skill sharing Choi Bong-shik, ‘the ruler of space’!”
I tried to get out of this place by sharing Bongsik’s skill, which is overflowing with middle school two.
Tring!
-Skill sharing failed.
“uh?”
I tried again just in case, but the same failure message popped up on Godmaker.
It was the same no matter how many times I did it.
‘Is it possible to move in space in a dungeon?’
I think I’ve heard of something like that somewhere.
You can’t do it if you can’t use the skill. We have no choice but to use this bridge that has been with mankind since the beginning of time.
I switched my phone to flashlight mode and looked around the caves of the dungeon in search of an exit.
Did you walk like that for 20 minutes?
The shape of the cave, which had been wriggling like intestines, changed, revealing a gray stone wall. The stone walls were carved with strange murals, as if they were inside the ruins of an Egyptian pyramid.
‘What kind of painting is this?’
I pointed the flashlight at the wall.
Pointy-eared handsome men and women sing and dance joyfully, harvesting fruits and grains in bountiful forests and fields.
A goddess who looks at them with maternal eyes like her parents.
In her hand was a two-armed scale with a flame symbolizing light and darkness.
It was heaven.
Even the faces of the gods and the believers who served him were full of innocent smiles like children.
To the extent that a smile naturally forms on my lips as I look at it.
My feet automatically moved along the mural.
However, the beautiful mural, as if singing the praises of life, changed at some point.
Horrible-looking monsters leaping from the sky, from the ground, and from the sea.
They preyed upon anyone who was fleeing in terror.
They shed tears as if pleading and opened their mouths as if asking for help, but their god did not appear.
“what’s this…?”
My steps stopped without even realizing it.
It was.
A mural of a monster that fills from the ceiling to the floor and opens its huge mouth in an attempt to devour everything in the world.
A goddess holding a scale was being sucked into the mouth.
Even in the midst of death, he was crying and shedding tears of blood toward his followers who were being slaughtered by the monster.
“Wow!”
I was so shocked that I collapsed on the floor and vomited.
Even though it was just a mural, it seems that the craftsman sold his soul to paint it.
The sight of the followers being slaughtered and the goddess being eaten alive was vivid and gruesome, as if it were unfolding before my eyes.
In particular, the monster devouring that goddess made me feel worse because it reminded me of a god of destruction.
click! click!
After a while, I barely managed to get my mind together and took a picture of the mural with my cell phone.
I did it because I was wondering if I could get some information if I showed it to Kang-woo later.
The lights from the flash seemed to stimulate the passengers there.
Squeak! Squeak Squeak!
The raspy rattles came closer and closer.
‘Well, there can be at least one or two rats in such a shady place,’ he said at first, not thinking much about it.
but.
What appeared was not a big deal.
Swoop!
A huge shadow covered my body.
Looking at the rat-hole-like dungeon I found in Jirisan Mountain, I remembered what I said.
“Could a rat monster come out?”
Is this guy’s snout a problem?
“Poetry Shiva!”
The real rat monster appeared.
It was huge enough to be three times my size, and it walked on two legs like a human.
Besides, although it was rusty, wasn’t it that he was armed with armor all over his body and even held a sharp spear in his hand?
The rat monster flashed red eyes at me and opened its mouth.
– Take it! Cheek!
It seemed to be saying something, but of course I couldn’t understand it.
No, I think I know it roughly.
Slurp!
Judging from those greedy eyes looking at me and the drool dripping from the corners of my mouth, it seems that they consider me to be the only God in that delicious-looking piece of meat they picked up on the roadside.
“This rat dares not even know the subject!”
Of course, at first I was shocked and taken aback by the visuals of this rat monster, but I am not what I used to be.
Even though he is a middle-level god, how can he be frightened by a rat like this?
“I’ll make you a rat poo!”
I raised my index finger and pointed it at him.
“The crushing sword of God!”
And soon the corpse of the monster, crushed to death, should have been spread out in front of me?
uh huh
– Squeak?
The rat monster looked down at me, asking what this piece of meat was doing. I panicked and hurriedly tried the authority again.
“God’s sword crushing! God’s stop condemning!”
But again nothing happened.
Could it be that this rat monster, contrary to its appearance, was bigger than I thought?
Embarrassed, I tried to call the evil god Yui Shin with the thumb of the proliferating god, but even that failed.
“Skill sharing Seong Mi-ri ‘thunderbolt’!”
Tring!
-Skill sharing failed.
There was not even skill sharing.
