00098 Can you follow me? ————————————————– ———————-=
Using the downward force, cut down with all your might, starting from the top of the head.
Crack. Crack. Patter.
Although it was full of magical energy, Gigas’ body, which was as hard as stone, was easily split in half without a single hitch. I stepped to the floor as I watched Gigas slowly disintegrating, with the center half of his upper body divided in half.
thud!
As it had a large body, the sound of it falling was loud. She had no relief from defeating a difficult monster. From the beginning, after the first clash, I knew that this guy was not my opponent. Still, I felt grateful to my companions who followed my order, which was a little different from usual.
“brother. Thank you for your hard work.”
Before I knew it, the string was behind me. I couldn’t look closely this time, but I could see that a few of the gloves I had fitted were dented. Since the wizards and I mostly tied our arms together, we were probably grazed a few times by attacks using our tails or torsos.
Ahn Hyeon opened his mouth with a rare, sparkling expression in his eyes.
“My brother is really amazing.”
“what. “The wizards did a good job.”
“Still. “I never dreamed that I would finish that guy off in one blow like that.”
“It’s not just one shot… .”
I spoke vaguely. Hyeon’s expression was becoming more and more burdened, so I quickly took my steps. I heard Yujeong asking me to come with her from behind, but I just ignored it and walked.
The faces of the companions could be seen as more spectacular. Was it so surprising that he was killed with one sword? Anyway, it is true that everyone has had a hard time, so I opened the conversation in a soft voice.
“It’s a great magic combination. Thanks to you all, I was able to seize a great opportunity.”
“ah… yes… User Kim Soo-hyun is also great. ha ha ha.”
Shin Sang-yong answered with a dumbfounded look on his face, but he was unable to hide his embarrassment. I could tell he was not just by his facial expression, but by the fact that he constantly called me leader and then changed his title.
Ansol was breathing a sigh of relief. When she turned her head and looked at her children’s expressions, she couldn’t find anything unusual. As much as she has been with me for a while, she is just “amazing.” It was just that she didn’t have any doubts about me.
However, it was not Shin Sang-yong and Jeong Ha-yeon. Through this battle, I showed them a part of me, and even if it was only a part, I revealed a power that was far beyond that of a 0-year user. In other words, it was to let people know that I was different from other users of the same age.
After exchanging glances with Shin Sang-yong and Jeong Ha-yeon for a moment, I opened my mouth with a calm face.
“You used too much magic. “Are you feeling okay?”
“Fine… Oh no. however… .”
“however.” Jeong Ha-yeon, who had said this, paused for a moment. A lot of conflicted looks pass over her face. A heavy silence passed and her pale lips opened again.
“… Still, didn’t you feel a little more comfortable thanks to us?”
Jeong Ha-yeon immediately adjusted her expression and answered in her usual clear voice. And while listening to her answer, I forced myself to smile. Right. She is definitely a woman who knows how to differentiate between situations, unlike Kim Han-byul. Are you saying you are going to wait patiently for now?
Her reaction exceeded my expectations, so I couldn’t help but smile.
“yes. “It was very nice.”
“Hehe. “I look forward to the next battle.”
The group just quietly listened to the conversation between me and Jeong Ha-yeon. Shin Sang-yong wanted to say something, but when Jeong Ha-yeon did not give him a chance, he just scratched his head.
I decided to take a break for a little while. And I made up my mind right here and now. He said he would put both of them as solid candidates for recruitment by clan members like Go Yeon-ju. Looking at the conversation and atmosphere just now, there is a high possibility of acceptance, but there were also cases of rejection.
If they refuse… Should I kill him?
no. There is no need to kill. It would be tricky to become an enemy, but since he didn’t appear as an enemy in the first round like Go Yeon-ju, I felt like I needed to think a little more.
While my companions were taking a break, I kept tapping my fingers on the floor.

In conclusion, my worries were unfounded.
After leaving Gigas’ room, we opened the two remaining doors in the room we first entered. One of the rooms contained a salty cockatrice, and the monsters that emerged from the remaining rooms were swarms of even more powerful dead.
If you had to classify the difficulty levels, you could see them in that order: Gigas, Cockatrice, and Dead. However, compared to yesterday, we had strengthened our equipment and gained more experience, so we were able to handle it much more easily. Of course, the reason I took a more active role was a big one, but I couldn’t ignore the experience points of my companions.
“Ah, it seems my prediction was wrong. sorry.”
Shin Sang-yong apologized to me in a dejected voice.
Currently, we had crossed the passage connecting the space divided in half and entered the next space. The number of doors visible here was also three, the same as in the previous space. In the previous space, there was a door next to the passage, but in the current space, the door was not visible where the passage was.
I shook my head and opened my mouth in a calm voice.
“it’s okay. We didn’t live in those times, so it’s difficult to infer everything from just one record. And although there was just a small error in Gigas, everything else is working as expected.”
“haha… .”
Shin Sang-yong smiled awkwardly at my warm consolation. The most important thing we need to check on this floor now is the level of the monsters. If you sacrifice 100 humans, you can summon one intact low-level demon. The level of monsters on the second floor was uneven, but it was clear that they were higher than the first floor.
“Uhm. “Master.”
“why.”
“The leader said, if you sacrifice 100 monsters of a similar level to Gigas, how many demons can be summoned?”
“hmm. But that can’t be possible.”
“Still.”
Vivian looked worried for a moment as Shin Sang-yong complained. However, he soon shook his head excitedly and answered in a cautious voice.
“If Gigas is what Soohyun said, you can think of it as a combination of a giant and a basilisk. “I think we can look at the highest level at that level.”
“very?”
When I asked sharply, Vivien immediately waved her hand.
“No, I don’t know. just… “I said it couldn’t be like that from the beginning.”
I snorted and turned my head. I think the highest level is someone’s dog’s name.
Although it is divided into low-class, middle-class, upper-class, and top-class to make it easier for users to distinguish, the Demon World also had a clear class society. Even if it’s not at the highest level, there will be someone bigger than a duke. Now, among our group, only I can predict the possibility of victory against him. Vivian may be able to fight, but it is difficult to guarantee that he can win. He’ll probably lose with odds of 8 or better.
And even if it comes out… .
“I think it would be better to start exploring this space now.”
I stood up and shook my head. This is because there was a hint of anxiety slowly lingering in the atmosphere of the group. Jeong Ha-yeon, who must have heard me, calmly closed her eyes and calmed herself down, opened her eyes and looked up at me.
Maybe it was because I had overexerted myself a little, but my otherwise fair skin had turned pale. In her original form, Jeong Ha-yeon would have been able to properly control and distribute her abilities, but after the Gigas Room, she was drawing out her true abilities almost to the limit in each battle.
And I didn’t say anything because I could roughly guess the reason. These were all issues that would be resolved after this expedition ended anyway.
The group took a moment to gather themselves and stood up. I led the group, chose a door that appealed to me, and walked on. As I went, I roughly checked the space and found that there was a response in the rooms to the west and north, but nothing was detected in the room to the east.
Since the door chosen as the first target is facing west, you will need to turn clockwise.
As they walked, a heavy silence fell within the group. Everyone had a slightly tired look on their faces. However, it seemed that every time I cleared a room, I was getting nervous knowingly or unknowingly because the battle with the demons was getting closer and closer.
Also, the fact that there were no exploration rewards, such as items obtained on the second floor along the way, was also encouraging such a trend. Unless there is a turning point that gives you new vitality, your body becomes heavier as you fight. Of course, even if the items obtained from the first floor had already achieved success beyond the jackpot, human greed knew no bounds.
Eventually, we stopped in front of a heavy iron gate that showed off its huge appearance.
Just before opening the door, I looked back at my companions who were in a depressed mood. Everyone was looking at my face with dry faces. I sighed briefly and then put my hand on the doorknob. As I continued to apply my strength, the unpleasant sound of clanging metal rang out. I just used my strength and opened the door wide.

“Wow… .”
As I opened the door, a cold chill came in, aiming sharply at me.
“Protect!”
At that moment, a translucent sphere appeared around me. I could see the sword energy fading away with the sound. It was Ansol’s protection spell. I don’t know when he was getting ready, but he didn’t give any praise.
Ansol may be the object of praise because he did it, but it was natural for priests to do this. The current action was nothing more or less than simple food.
“There is a monster. Everyone please be careful.”
After speaking, I raised my sword and prepared for another attack. However, no significant attacks came after the first offensive. In the end, we had no choice but to go inside.
As I took one more step inside, I was once again attacked by a dark-blue sword energy that seemed to be looking for an opportunity. As I was also prepared, I swung my sword and simply cut the blade, then moved further forward and secured a safe zone for my companions.
It was only after everyone else in the group rushed in that I was able to take a look at the monster in front of me. This room was a little darker than the other rooms, but it wasn’t so dark that it couldn’t be seen with the naked eye. And the one who appeared before us… .
“You are a Spirit Knight.”
Shin Sang-yong and Jeong Ha-yeon frowned at my words.
“under. “This laboratory appears to be a gathering place for magic-resistant monsters.”
Jeong Ha-yeon seemed to be getting a bit irritated and made a loud noise.
A blue flame was burning inside the helmet, which stood with its two horns bent in the middle. Armor covered in rust and black blood stained here and there. It is already difficult to see him as a human being. Other parts were covered with gloves, but the barely visible face inside the helmet was clearly a skull.
The Knight of the Dead had physical attack power, but above all, it was difficult in that it also had magic attack power. And as he has mastered magic, he has strong magic resistance, that is, a strong resistance to magic. This is why Jeong Ha-yeon expressed her dissatisfaction.
As he was a knight when he was alive, he can perform most close combat, uses magic, and has magic resistance. Of course, since it is at the pre-Death Knight stage, it is not at the level of a boss monster. However, he was an opponent with all three qualities, so he could not be considered an easy opponent.
but. The above words were words that were true.
“… Su-hyun. “Is this the result of the Dead Soul Chivalry Research Institute?”
“They are the ones who summon demons too. “There’s nothing particularly strange about it.”
Vivien frowned at my clear answer. After staring at her face, I turned my head.
“You’re playing with people’s souls…” “As an alchemist, this is something I cannot tolerate.”
I took a step forward, listening to her voice that followed. He must have decided that it would be difficult to harm us with a simple sword attack, so he was gradually reducing the distance between us.
“Wow… .”
“Ahn Hyeon. Keeper. oil well. behind me. Sol prepares a binding spell… Wizards, please use auxiliary magic for support. and… .”
After a brief pause, I continued speaking. Although he wasn’t specifically referring to anyone, the only party members who didn’t give orders were wizards.
“Don’t push yourself too hard.”
After speaking, I rushed towards the Spirit Knight.
—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=
hello. This is Ro Yujin.
hmm. I just decided to publish two episodes today.
Now that I think about it, I can’t upload it tomorrow at midnight, but I think I can post two episodes later that day. I don’t know if I’ll be able to upload it right away at midnight tomorrow, but I’ll try my best anyway. 🙂
and… It seems that some people are a little tired of the battle scene that follows the ruined laboratory. My heart aches when I see the messages you sent. haha. After finishing the second floor in the next or next episode, we will finish the third floor as quickly as possible. thank you (__)

1. MT Bear: Huh. Is that so? Because I really like bears. Bear, bear, bear. 🙂 Congratulations on first place. Please introduce me to a bear sometime… huh?
2. Human life: Oh. You made a good choice. I sincerely wish you a safe recovery after your surgery today. haha. If there is a hospital nearby, there is no need to visit the patient. And the work you mentioned is one of my favorite works. 🙂
And I cannot refute the idiot poet’s criticism. Blind comments and criticism can be convinced with sufficient explanation and understanding, but I think Baboo Poet’s criticism was polite and quite valid from another perspective. As I always say at the end of my reviews, criticism is always welcome. As the poet said, there is just a difference in subjectivity.
Still, I gained a lot of strength from reading Saram Life’s lengthy comments. thank you Once again, I hope that today’s surgery can be completed safely. Fighting!
3. Guimuja: Oot. It’s Bugilma! Welcome! (lol)

9. Repil: Thank you. I’m also looking forward to that day. I’m also excited to see if I can actually do it. ha ha ha.
