18 – Moths Jumping into the Fire

Adventurers were climbing the mountain in the middle of the night.

It was Kim Min-jun, who was leading, and Marcel and his group who were following behind.

Marcel and his group consisted of a total of 4 people.

Marcel uses a sword.

Martin, a warrior using a large axe.

And even Rio, the archer, and Anna, who uses magic to a lesser extent.

However, some were dissatisfied with the current situation.

“What nonsense is this?”

“Okay. “Why are we leaving now when we can leave as soon as the sun rises?”

Anna and Rio, who were following behind, grumbled softly.

After preparing as Kim Min-jun said, we left in the evening.

But we left too late.

By the time we arrived at the mountain and started climbing, it was already past evening.

No matter how much a silver-level adventurer joins the party, this has crossed the line.

It is especially dangerous to climb these mountain ranges during daylight, but now it is already midnight.

A situation where you don’t know what you might encounter.

At least, I was relieved that Kim Min-jun’s skills were good for an adventurer with a silver plate.

Kim Min-jun was a silver-level adventurer and wizard. He also seemed to have quite a bit of skill.

I chased away all the low-level monsters, such as wild animals and goblins, that I encountered while climbing the mountain with just a wave of my hand.

‘You can use magic so freely…’ .’

Just looking at his current appearance, I could tell that he was not just a wizard.

That’s why, even though he was dissatisfied with the current situation, he didn’t bother to say it out loud.

More than anything, aren’t they just following along?

Even as he climbs the dark mountain, Minjun Kim illuminates his surroundings with magic.

It was a light of weak intensity, but it was definitely better than nothing.

The act of lighting up a mountain at night, particularly in the mountains adjacent to the Demon World, was like asking for death.

Knowing that fact, Minjun Kim adjusted the intensity of light appropriately.

‘Tsk.’

Perhaps because it was night, we often encountered monsters.

Most of them were small children, so I used magic only to chase them away.

There is no need to relax in advance from now on.

Kim Min-jun glanced behind him.

This was to check if anyone was falling behind.

It’s not because he is very considerate.

Because they were the main dish of the day.

Kim Min-jun, who continued to climb, stopped in his place.

“I guess this is it. Everyone, get ready.”

You have reached the location where the dungeon is marked.

But maybe because it was dark, I couldn’t find the dungeon.

“Where is the dungeon?”

It was difficult from the beginning.

I also gave instructions to Marcel and his companions and had them all search the dungeon together.

After a while, Marcel’s voice was heard.

“Ah, brother. “I found it!”

Still, it seemed like he had somehow found the dungeon.

When Minjun Kim headed to where Marcel was, there was a cave there.

It was difficult to find because it was between thick trees.

“Um….”

The cave seen from the outside looked very dark.

Even with Kim Min-jun’s magic, the darkness did not go away.

“Are you sure this is the right place?”

“I looked all around, but there was nothing except here!”

Is it really a dungeon?

I don’t feel anything in particular?

Kim Min-jun expressed doubt.

Nothing was felt in the cave that was presumed to be a dungeon.

Kim Min-jun was a hunter and adventurer at the same time.

And there was a class A characteristic called mana sensitivity.

Mana sensitivity is the ability to feel and read mana.

The dungeons and monsters he had encountered so far had a unique mana flow, even if they were small.

That’s why I knew.

The fact that the cave in front of you cannot feel any energy.

If it wasn’t for the request she received from the guild, she would have mistaken it for an ordinary cave.

“Well, what do you want from a low-level dungeon?”

Kim Min-jun, who was comparing the request with the request, soon turned off his mind.

Of course, there are types of artifacts or magic that block mana.

But the current dungeon is iron grade.

In fact, this is the place that received the lowest grade.

How low is the level that you can’t even feel the mana?

Therefore, other variables were completely excluded.

“Now, let’s all go in.”

Even if I stayed here, nothing would change.

It didn’t look particularly dangerous, so I urged the guys following me.

From noble mtl dot com

This time, I walked forward with my companions at the front, with Kim Min-jun staying behind.

‘Finally.’

They were driven into the dungeon.

Now that I am behind them, they will no longer be able to escape.

It was the moment when Kim Min-jun’s plan was finally about to be implemented.

The moment you enter the dungeon, you are already a prey trapped in a trap.

* · * *

I stepped into the dungeon.

No matter how low it is, a dungeon is a dungeon.

So everyone was cautious and headed forward cautiously.

“Is it really a dungeon?”

Kim Minjun muttered and lifted his magic.

Torches lined up on the walls greeted them.

Because it was no longer dark, there was no need to use mana to create light.

How far did it take?

Suddenly, a fork in the road appeared out of nowhere.

“What is it?”

“Huh? “Brother, the road is divided?”

Marcel and his companions whispered at that scene.

“I’m watching too.”

He said it calmly, but the truth was that Kim Min-jun was equally embarrassed.

‘Why did a fork in the road suddenly appear?’

Generally, the lower-level dungeons had simpler internal structures.

What’s more, this dungeon is at the lowest iron level.

But then there was a fork in the road on either side.

‘Ha, things are going wrong’

Kim Min-jun’s expression distorted.

I was trying to have some fun by conquering dungeons, but things were not going well.

Kim Min-jun, who was pondering, suddenly recalled a memory.

“Now that I think about it, Marcel.”

“Did you call me, brother?”

“You said that earlier. “It was originally a dungeon of the same class.”

I remembered what Marcel said when I picked up the request form at the Adventurer’s Guild.

“Yes, brother. “It was like that, right?”

Marcel answered as if that was the problem.

“Do you know why the rating was lowered?”

But Marcel shook his head.

I only knew that the grade had dropped, but I didn’t know why.

‘A useless child.’

Kim Min-jun was worried.

“It’s definitely understandable if it’s the same level….”

For dungeons of the same level, the fork in the road is understandable.

Of course, this crossroads is actually the entire dungeon.

‘Okay, let’s not be too sensitive.’

Kim Min-jun soon chose one path.

There was also a way to divide into two directions, but that was dangerous.

They are novice adventurers.

If you lose to monsters for no reason, your fun will only be cut in half.

More than anything, it was important to eliminate the variable of them running away.

They are going to kill you anyway, so it would be difficult if you split the path and run away.

“Everyone goes left.”

They also realized that there would be no benefit from sharing here. Everyone decided to follow Kim Min-jun’s words without a word.

Even if it’s dangerous, won’t Kim Min-jun take care of protecting you?

At least there was that belief.

They chose the left path and continued to walk forward.

Then a chilling wind began to blow.

Hwiiing-

The fires on the wall shook due to the wind.

“Everyone stop.”

I felt something.

Kim Min-jun gave an order to everyone.

But the wind got stronger and all the lights went out at the same time.

The darkness has come again.

“Huh? Older brother.”

Marcel was surprised and looked for Kim Min-jun.

“f*ck. “Nothing works.”

Minjun Kim grumbled but urgently used magic.

A small sphere floated above the palm and soon emitted light.

The darkness went away again and the inside of the dungeon became bright.

But Kim Min-jun’s expression did not straighten.

‘Something is strange.’

I felt an inexplicable sense of discomfort.

At the same time, Marcel appeared before his eyes.

As soon as her surroundings became illuminated, Marcel approached her colleagues in front of her.

All three people stood still in their places.

“… ….”

“Hey!”

Marcel called them.

“… ….”

“Are you guys scared? “Kkkkkk.”

She approached them as Marcel scoffed.

“The fire just went out. “What are you scared of with that?”

The moment Marcel was about to place her hand on Martin’s muscular shoulder.

“Stop!”

Minjun Kim shouted at Marcel.

“Yes?”

“Come here now!”

Marcel turned behind her and expressed her doubts.

I couldn’t figure out why it was like that all of a sudden.

“Why are you doing this? Brother…….”

aaah-

But Marcel’s words did not last until the end.

Didn’t his companions, who had said nothing, suddenly brandish their weapons at Marcel?

In particular, Martin’s ax struck Marcel’s heart.

Because it was so powerful, his armor was easily pierced.

“Oops!”

Marcel fell to the floor, vomiting blood.

He looked at his colleagues with disbelief.

“This…” What did you do…….”

Marcel’s words could not be continued and he died.

“f*ck! “Some kind of banshee appears in a dungeon of the same level!”

Kim Min-jun cursed and began to chant magic.

Banshee are undead monsters.

It wasn’t a high-grade monster, but it was a bit difficult to deal with.

Because it had no substance, it could be dealt with only by divine power or magic.

The banshee was something closer to a ghost than a monster.

And there was one more problem for the banshee.

Immediate mental power control.

The most frightening thing about the Banshee was its ability to control the minds of humans.

Of course, it was not perfect.

It didn’t work even though they were of the same level as the Benshi.

And usually, you can prepare by just having a trainee priest in the party.

But now I was too complacent.

“Thunder Storm!”

Kim Min-jun hurriedly shouted a spell.

Lightning began to strike from the air to the floor.

The target was the three adventurers right in front of us.

No, they were adventurers.

They died after being electrocuted by lightning fired by Kim Min-jun.

The inside of the dungeon was filled with the smell of burning meat.

“Ha… ha… “f*ck.”

Cursing words came out often today.

I looked at Marcel, whose heart had been pierced, and the bodies of the electrocuted guys.

I had originally planned to kill him with my own hands, but I did not want it to end like this.

Everyone except Marcel has already been distracted by the banshee.

I don’t know why, but the banshees here were different from the regular banshees.

I had that feeling.

‘Could it be that there are buff-type monsters?’

If so, it was a truly dangerous situation.

I should never have set foot here in the first place.

“Let’s go out first.”

Even if the grade dropped, it was originally a dungeon that would have been of the same grade.

However, the fact that the banshees appeared from the beginning means that the Adventurer’s Guild provided incorrect information.

‘I have to kill the receptionist the moment I leave.’

Do you dare to put yourself in danger?

I almost died.

I had to release this current anger to someone.

The moment when you turn your body back and try to go back.

Clap clap clap-

Applause was heard from the front.

“You are truly an amazing person!”

Someone spoke in an admiring voice.

The identity of the voice was that of a woman.

What was unusual was that she was wearing a maid uniform, but that didn’t matter.

Moreover, it must be a monster, seeing as it has horns on top of its head.

“Who are you?”

Kim Min-jun raised the alarm.

Gulp.

It is an enormous being.

Just looking at it, the momentum was no joke.

Why couldn’t I detect a force of that magnitude?

Kim Min-jun, who had no way of knowing the identity of the dungeon hideout, was in despair.

This is dangerous.

‘Okay, let’s run away.’

If I run away using magic, wouldn’t I be able to at least get out of the dungeon?

But Kim Min-jun’s thoughts were already being read.

“Are you really running away?”

Before he knew it, goblins were approaching the passage he had entered.

“Before I knew it… !”

Even hobgoblins and goblin shamans were mixed in.

It was okay up to that point.

After all, they are goblins.

If you do your best, it will be possible to break through.

However, Kim Min-jun’s eyes went to the very back of the goblin group.

The Goblin Lord was standing there with an arrogant expression.

The Goblin Lord wore a golden crown, so it was easily recognizable even to those who met him for the first time.

The problem was that the Goblin Lord was not just a goblin.

The power of the rod was truly incredible.

Even on Earth, a party including an A-class hunter was needed to subdue it.

“This…” It doesn’t make sense….”

hahahaha.

Kim Min-jun started laughing as if he had lost his mind.

“Is there no way out?”

The unknown woman smiled brightly.

If this is the case, let’s just get rid of that woman.

Wouldn’t it be easier for a woman than a goblin lord?

‘f*ck. ‘The moment I leave, I’ll have to kill the adventurer’s guild first.’

At this level, it is not even silver level.

Even by the standards of this continent, it was a dungeon that surpassed the gold level and could well have been platinum level.

When Minjun Kim decides to get rid of the female monster in front of him.

Clap- Clap- Clap-

Cheolkeok-

The sound of something hitting metal began to be heard.

Suddenly, numerous skeletons were walking behind the woman.

“Crazy!”

Kim Min-jun shouted without realizing it.

It wasn’t just the skeleton.

“Why is the Death Knight here…? .”

There was a Death Knight among the skeletons.

From noble mtl dot com

You can’t win this.

Even if I died and woke up, I could never run away.

What on earth is this?

What is this dungeon that has three monsters like that?

Many thoughts were passing through Kim Min-jun’s head.

“I was just trying to meet this end…” .”

I haven’t had a hard time until now.

Kim Min-jun fell into despair and shed tears.

However, the woman in front of her opened her mouth as if it did not matter.

“Playing with trivial emotions like humans is none of my business.”

At the same time, the opponent stretched both hands upward.

“But you were lucky. It’s okay to laugh. I will give you the honor of becoming a special offering to my master!”

There was madness in that appearance.

“You are fully qualified.”

Her grinning smile really gave me goosebumps.
