– Volume 2, Episode 2
27. 3rd floor (1)
Taesan checks the wand first.
[Stand of Random Spirit]
[It’s a magic wand made as a result of an accident. Even those who created it do not know why it contains such magic. Basic magic [Random mental attack] can be used.]
[Basic Magic: Random Mental Attack]
[Mana Consumption: 5]
[Uses mind magic that is randomly harmful to the target. Attempt to judge the target’s status abnormality.]
It is a literal stick. Confusion curses madness etc. Casts bad mind magic on the target. Randomness is randomness within the framework of an unfavorable effect. If so it wasn’t a big downside.
And the 2nd floor clear reward. Base mana boost potion.
[Beginner Mana Up Potion]
[It is a liquid that contains the power of mana.
Drinking it will increase your mana.]
Taesan drank it without delay.
[Mana permanently rises by 10.]
It was a satisfactory rise. Taesan’s mana is now 41. With simple calculations I was able to use Solicitation nearly 8 times.
“Good.”
And now the rest of the reward ???
“What is this?”
As a reward for clearing the secret element
It should be better than the clear reward. Tae-san confirmed the reward in anticipation.
[You used ???.]
[I got the tools of a lowly thief.]
A tool that appeared to be a picking tool was in Taesan’s hand. Taesan who thought it was a stat-related reward was momentarily taken aback.
What is this?
[tool of a lowly thief]
[This is the only talent possessed by the lowly. If you lose ask your teammates
You will receive a rim.]
[Attempt to release the trap and release the lock.]
oh?
Tae-san was surprised. It is a device for disarming traps and unlocking locks.
“You get it this way.”
Among the pitfalls there are pitfalls that must be met.
It is a kind of confirmed trap and if there is no release tool you have to give up the reward with tears in your eyes. From the 5th floor there
Traps and locked boxes slowly appear. With this tool attempts at disarming were possible.
It is a very good item. In addition by using this tool you can also acquire trap detection and unlock skills.
Although it has no practical performance it could be useful for breaking through the labyrinth. grumbled the ghost.
[You’re getting everything you can get.]
“Why are there so many complaints?”
[Would you like to see the dead guy ■ get the results of the living guy ■?]
“That too.”
Taesan nodded at the plausible statement.
A ghost is a person who similarly tried to attack the labyrinth and failed. Watching him gradually break through the labyrinth he must have had many thoughts.
Once verification is complete.
I headed for the passageway down Mount Tai. As I went down the aisle a quest window popped up.
[The 3rd floor quest begins.]
[Defeat the boss on the 3rd floor and pass
do it.]
[Reward: Basic stamina increase potion.]
[Secret reward: ???]
A potion that increases basic stamina. Increases stamina by 50.
Like the mana rising potion it was a very good item. After checking Taesan opened the door. A dwarf was waiting for him.
oh. Are you here?”
“I came.”
The Dwarf looked at him with a friendly face
‘s face contorts in an instant.
••••••what?
[You’re an old friend aren’t you? Are you still alive and not dead?]
The ghost chuckled. The Dwarf clicked his tongue.
“You got the quest.”
[I came because I received it. No eyes?]
The dwarf ignored the ghost’s words and spoke to Taesan.
That’s just a loud loser. Don’t get dirty for nothing.”
[An old man who can only pray
bluff.]
They show sharp reactions to each other. If the Dwarf’s response to the ghost was indifference and contempt the ghost contained hostility criticism and ridicule.
[But tell me the information that the old man should not be stained? Do you think this guy is pretty valuable?]
said the ghost playfully.
[Can you touch me? Do you want to see an old man going crazy?]
“Something like you? him?”
The Dwarf laughed. Taishan waved his hand.
“Don’t talk about the two of them and the culprit takes care of me.”
ah. sorry. The losers keep talking loudly.”
The Dwarf meekly apologized. After all the dwarves were very kind to him.
There’s no way you’d fall for a guy like that. What are you going to buy?”
“Not yet.”
no money was raised After wandering around the third floor I thought of returning again.
“Then see you next time. At least I
Shake him off a bit.”
[joy.]
The ghost snorted. Taesan said as he left the store and entered the third floor.
“Why are you not on good terms?”
[Can it be good? How sneaky and stupid that old man is.]
It was a voice full of hostility.
[You’d better be careful. The old man is good if he wants to help himself but he can change at any time. can’t trust
It’s a bastard.]
“Is that when you were alive?”
[Then after the retreat?]
If it was alive it would be time to break through the labyrinth. It was the same situation as Taesan.
can’t trust The ghost called the shop owner that. Taesan entered the labyrinth.
“Kaak!”
“Kee uh]!”
Just like on the second floor four goblins await
was running The 2nd and 3rd floors of Alone Mode have the same types of monsters that appear as overlapping layers.
The difference was that there were goblins who used magic instead of goblins who used bows.
“Kaak!”
[The goblin with a staff activated Confusion.]
[No judgment required! You endured with indomitable spirit.]
[All stats have risen.]
Taesan calmly drew out his sword.
Three minutes later only Taesan and the ghost remained in the room.
“The third floor is easier than the second.”
[I want to refute but I really have nothing to say.]
grumbled the ghost.
[Originally it’s pretty tight here isn’t it? It’s a place where I almost died several times but this is how it goes.]
The ghost’s words were not wrong. A goblin who uses the magic of seduction. And three escorting goblins.
Dodging the number three and passing by
It’s hard to do but it takes a confusion judgment to deal with it one by one. It was a kind of gossip.
However Taesan is half immune to mental abnormalities. It was like not having a single goblin so it was easier than the second floor.
Taesan started to break through the labyrinth. I went to another room and dealt with the goblins. This time it took 2 minutes.
[Huh true.]
The ghost who had been watching quietly admired it.
[Looking at it still the movement is fine. It’s a skill learned in actual combat so it has clear limits but he covers it with sense and observation. … … If it’s you you’ll be able to get to the middle layer without any problems.]
I didn’t intend to be satisfied with only being in the middle class.
He was thinking of clearing the labyrinth.
Taesan kept wandering around the labyrinth and catching the goblins. Her ghost asked if she wondered.
[Why are you holding on to everything? If you’re at your level right now they won’t give you much experience.
place? Wouldn’t it be okay to just go down quickly?]
The ghost’s words were not wrong.
It doesn’t give less experience but if it’s Taesan’s stats the 4th and 5th floors are no problem.
The rise in spirituality was also sealed due to the difference in rank and the only thing to be saved was money and equipment.
Taesan calmly replied.
“Because there is a quest.”
[quest? What more do you have right now?]
“Rakiratas.”
[uh?]
The ghost paused.
[Does he even give you quests like that? First time hearing it?]
“Have you been tried too?”
[I got it. Cleared without any problems.]
said the ghost proudly. Looking at it I had a question. Taesan asked as he killed the goblin.
“What is the species of Rakiratas?”
[It’s literally paper. A lowly man offering himself to Rakiratas
You got stronger. As you can see the cost is eternal bondage but there are people who say it’s good.]
The ghost spoke as if he couldn’t understand.
[Still it’s strong. If it’s real not fake you have to go over at least the 5th floor to be able to face each other. Are you devoting your pitiful life because you think it’s worth devoting?]
Listening to the ghost’s story didn’t seem to intensify the ordeal so suddenly. Still he seemed to be familiar with Rakiratas as much as he had gone deep.
Taesan asked.
“Do you know what the Apostle’s Covenant is?”
[what?]
the ghost asked in surprise.
[How do you know that?]
“Because Rakiratas suggested it to me.”
[…] … Did he propose to you?]
The ghost must have been quite embarrassed so he kept his mouth shut. He seemed worried for a moment but soon his mouth opened.
[If you are now I would suggest enough
ji. grunt I didn’t get it.]
the ghost grumbled.
[Where can I explain?]
“They explain it plainly.”
The Dwarf was reluctant to explain referring to the contract. He made a bet but I thought he would reject it slightly but it was unexpected.
[I’m already dead! I am bound by the law but there are no restrictions on information. And what the old man doesn’t tell you it’s for you too. It’s a filthy clumsy consideration but I mean.]
The ghost snorted.
[Why do I care about you? We’re going to break up on the 10th floor anyway.]
The ghost was not for him. But it was rather good. To be honest I didn’t need the Dwarf’s consideration.
He needed information. About this place what is the purpose of the NPCs who are the gods.
The ghost began to unravel his curiosity.
[Gods are each in charge of their own domain. There are those who are in charge of winning and those who are in charge of losing
There are people who are in charge of the ship and they are of various colors. Among them Rakiratas is the god of struggle and death. He is and he is also the strangest god.]
Strange?
[Because he acts very lightly even though he is a god. They arbitrarily break contracts and try to help those they like by sacrificing their strength. Would you say it’s like a child? On such a subject I put more power on it and suppressed the backlash. It is a god that is difficult to express.]
After listening to the explanation I had a question.
“What is God?”
At least it is not the god called on Earth. According to the ghosts there seemed to be at least dozens.
[Those who helped design the labyrinth.]
design?
[Do you remember the system window you saw when you entered this place?]
Taesan searched for his memory.
“… … A labyrinth created by a wizard.”
[This is a labyrinth created by a great wizard long ago and rumors say that it grants one wish to those who conquer it.
there is.]
A labyrinth created by a great wizard. That’s it.
[But it’s hard to make by yourself. He went to the transcendental ones and told them his plan. He said he wanted to build a grand labyrinth and a tower heading underground. He said he wanted to call countless warriors and heroes to break through. Don’t you want to watch their challenges life-and-death struggles and fleeting deaths?]
“I think you will like it.”
[Is this the level you like? very beautiful
ran amok They fully supported the mage. This place was designed at the end of a meaningful time even for the gods. It’s a labyrinth.]
It was a bigger story than I thought. the ghost continued.
[And the gods settled down in this place they made with great effort. They discriminate those who entered the labyrinth from that depth from the depths. We judge the value by giving trials and giving attention. Among them suggestions made especially to those who like one’s own. That is the apostle’s contract.]
