Episode 294 < Return of Geomje. (2) >
-But do you have time to curse at me now?
Bae Hu-ryeong laughed heartily.
-The alarm went off. Spiders will come rushing in in the blink of an eye?
“damn. Devotees of Hamustra!”
I ran toward the prison holding a bundle of keys.
“He is a believer in Hamustra! [Chief of the Great Library of All Things] is the greatest constellation in the universe! “If there is someone who does that, at least make a small moan!”
“Ugh… .”
Weak moans came from all over the place.
My hearing, enhanced by aura, did not miss even the slightest sound. Twelve places in total. I was quickly flipping through the bundle of keys, trying to find the right key—.
“I don’t have time for this!”
I threw the bundle of keys on the floor. Then he pulled out the holy sword and cut down the iron bars. Kaga-ga-gang! The iron bars were incredibly hard, as if they had been enchanted, but as aura was poured into them, they were cut like a piece of corn.
“ruler! If you still have the energy to get up, hurry… .”
-Muoooooo!
It was then.
An ominous roar sounded from afar.
I don’t know what kind of monster is crying out. What is certain is that the reason it howled was not to announce the dawn.
[‘Eyes in the Labyrinth’ is amused by your crisis.]
[‘Lonely Seeker’ looks at how you will overcome this situation.]
[‘The Incarnation of Love and Lust’ is exciting as it envisions a future in which you are held captive!]
I’ll be amazed.
“Just follow everyone! Let’s escape!”
I cut off the believers’ restraints.
“What are you… ?”
Some were so tortured that they did not even have the strength to stand up. For those people, I traced the blood flow chart, circulated the aura, and then poured a potion into them.
“drink!”
“Woop, woop…..”
“Don’t throw up! “Because it’s so f*cking good for your body!”
I gave each believer a glass bottle. It was a pharmacist’s special medicine that has now become expensive to call.
The loyal pharmacist said, ‘I will offer it to Confucius at a special friend price…’ ‘ he said. Thanks to this, I was able to spray as much as I wanted when I needed to spray like now.
“Oooh?”
“This taste… … !”
“Nonsense. This small amount is so effective… .”
It seems that the pharmacist’s skills are also applicable to the 50th floor.
‘Indeed my friend.’
-He was a real idiot too. Now that you think about it, doesn’t this guy called Charumu look a bit similar to that guy?
‘Please be quiet.’
That’s how most of the Hamustra believers took the medicine.
But ‘most’ is not the same as ‘all’.
“wait. “Who are you to follow me?”
It was a woman with vivid sharpness in her eyes, who looked good in glasses. Her incarceration made her look fierce, with her hair matted.
“I am also on Hamustra’s side.”
I said.
The woman frowned.
“I’ve never seen a librarian like you. Before I tell you what their intention is to make us escape… .”
It was a waste of time to do this.
“Please focus for a moment.”
“what?”
I accelerated my aurors to increase my sense of time. In a time line that was as long as taffy, I took a close look at my surroundings.
The Hamustra believers were looking at the woman with anxious faces.
A look that clearly looks at a superior, not a colleague or subordinate. He wanted to run away, but he seemed to have difficulty moving until the woman gave him permission.
‘indeed.’
I immediately realized why.
‘This person is [assistant writer].’
It is said that among Hamustra believers, he is almost treated as an apostle.
In order to lead the believers, I first had to gain this person’s trust.
‘If you are an apostle of the Holy See, you will understand at least the whole sound, right?’
I opened my mouth, leaving the slowed timeline as is.
“[The Director of the Great Library of All Things] asked me directly. [Assistant writer].”
The words flowed out at a speed that an average person could never imitate. If a person of low level listens, one of my sentences will sound like a single word, ■, like a crackling sound that cannot be understood at all.
Indeed, the [assistant writer] was at a level where he could recognize the sound. She frowned.
“The director asked for it… ?”
“yes. Ask him to take care of his followers. The situation you are in now… … .”
“I can not believe it. We are the ones who fall far behind the director’s [favorite character ranking]. But you were sent to help us escape? Nonsense. “The fact that the director took such a [character breakdown] action is [an expedient development that lacks probability].”
What are the favorite character rankings, character breakdown, and expedient development? .
I feel like I am the apostle of that constellation, but again, it is a waste of time to do this.
“I knew this would happen, so I got a token.”
“A token?”

“The director said. There is a line in this world that only you and the Librarian know. “That’s what I heard from someone when you entered the Apocalypse.”
I whispered into the assistant writer’s ear.
“[I’m looking at your face right now.]”
“…….”
The assistant writer’s eyes widened.
“[Someday you will die too. If you see my face when you close your eyes, we will both die looking at each other. It’s the same. Looking at each other. Same. I will stop here for a moment and wait until you close your eyes.]”
“… … Okay, no. okay. Because I understand.”
The assistant writer had an expression that made it difficult to say anything.
“Up to that point… that’s enough.”
The assistant writer seemed sad. He seemed angry and surprised.
At first glance, the scars that everyone has at some point in their lives were revealed in her expression.
“Yes, I’m sure it was the person the director sent. It’s hard to shake the feeling that there’s a lack of probability, but if you think about it, I’m not the [main character] anyway… .”
The assistant writer shakes his head bitterly. Eventually, her eyes returned to focus.
She said.
“I will take care of the believers. How to escape?”
“hmm. Originally, I was planning to sneak out… .”
In the stretched out time, the alarm was ringing at a strange length.
“Because this is shit. “Let’s push through with force.”
“Is it possible?”
“The sooner this conversation ends, the better the chances will be. Even though I’m talking in full voice, it doesn’t mean I have a lot of time. So come on… .”
“This man is the messenger sent by the director!”
The assistant writer shouted to the believers around him.
“Everyone follow this man’s instructions! Damn you spiders! “Let’s escape!”
“yes!”
The believers responded loudly as if they had been waiting for those words.
-Koooooo!
The monster also cried loudly, as if it had been waiting for those words. Finally, the monster turned the corner and stormed into the prison.
Thanks to you, “Yes!” The voices of the believers who answered cheerfully became strangely distorted in the second half, saying, “Yesss!?” It has become.
-oh. It’s a chimera. It’s been a while since I saw you.
The monster didn’t waste time looking into things like that. The advantage of animals is that they always live in the reality of the present moment.
And at this moment, the monster was rushing towards us, drool flowing from its mouth.
-That’s just a mutant crossbreeding a mixture of a manticore and a slime.
thud! thud! Every time the monster ran, the stone floor shook. The monster had no pupils where the pupils should be. Instead, a sticky green liquid constantly flowed from the eye sockets.
Bae Hu-ryeong clicked his tongue.
-Ugh. Anyway, perverts. It’s the same now as it was a hundred years ago.
“I take the lead! “Please follow me unconditionally!”
I rushed forward.
“ah… ! Hey, intruder! that… !”
Charumu tried to say something while swallowing a moan, but I didn’t listen and rushed over. Because I roughly guessed what he was trying to say.
‘Anyway, it’s a life that can’t be killed unless it’s a special method, that’s right!’
The monsters that live on the 50th floor are generally special.
In short, to kill [the one who dies after being cut in half], you must cut it in half exactly as its name suggests, and to kill the [the screamer], you must overwhelm it with volume, not with a slash.
The chimera in front of you is a monster that appeared from the Magic Tower. In other words, it is a monster that appears in the most difficult dungeon on the 50th floor. There is no way you will die if you just cut it.
‘therefore,’
With a squeak, I slipped and burrowed under the chimera’s body.
Then, before the chimera could react, it hit the guy’s stomach! He put the tip of his sword into it.
‘All you have to do is destroy it so that not a single speck of dust remains!’
The sword flashed. I thought red lightning would shoot out, but the next moment, boom! The monster’s stomach exploded.
no. It wasn’t just my stomach that burst. Even the slime flowing from the monster’s intestines, torso, spine, head, and eye sockets. The monster’s [whole body] literally exploded in an instant.
“Hi!?”
The magical boy screamed. Just now, I used the Holy Sword as a kind of syringe and hit the Auror like crazy.
The monster exploded alive due to the injection of an auror that went beyond common sense.
“Whoa.”
I burned the auror.
Not satisfied with simply blowing up the chimera’s body, he burned all of its skin and bones. Down to the last bit of slaughter. For a brief moment, dust similar to ash flew in the air, but even that was burned to a crisp.
It literally erased the existence of the monster.
“okay!”
I jumped up and looked back.
“If it’s a strategy or something, if you erase it, you’re done! “Let’s go quickly!”
The magic boy, the assistant writer, and the believers looked at my face blankly.
“what are you doing. Let’s go quickly!”
“Oh, yes. okay. Uh, let’s go quickly!”
Fortunately, the assistant writer was the first to come to his senses. She pulled other believers by their shoulders and sometimes kicked them on the butt to hasten her steps. Then the believers also joined the sane procession and started running away with me.
[The ‘lonely rescuer’ is speechless at your Auror operation.]
[‘The eyes that dwell in the labyrinth’ are surprised that you are not tired and are fine.]
[‘The Incarnation of Love and Lust’ is already preparing a full-length campaign just for you.]
okay. okay. Thank you, thank you!
But more about that later!
“Well, that chimera was a child that Big Spider was particularly fond of… .”
The magic boy ran after me, panting. It must have been difficult to run, but the fact that he was trying his best to look at my face whenever he had the chance was probably because the scene before had been so shocking.
“The heart that forms the core of the chimera is liquefied like slime… It’s constantly moving around inside the body, so if you don’t hit it exactly, you won’t die… .”
“Oh, indeed. “My method was the right one.”
“…….”
The magical boy opened his mouth and then closed it. It looks like he’s trying to focus on running.
-Grrrrrr!
-Go! Gooooo!
Monsters appeared constantly in the hallway. So much so that I wonder where it came from.
“If you don’t want to die, get out of the way, you bastards!”
I swung my sword without slowing down my running speed. Pow! Kwasik! Every monster that passed by my sword swelled like a balloon and burst.
A scary-looking monster crawled out at a rate of one every three seconds, but as I eliminated one monster per second, the front line was completely cleared of obstacles.
“Hyaaaaap!”
It was the moment when about 50 monsters exploded in about 40 seconds.
I felt something off.
Even though I was very nervous when I infiltrated and was on high alert when escaping, I felt no effort at all. The monsters were definitely scary. However, wouldn’t it be enough to just ignorantly hit the auror and explode it?
‘It’s easier than you think, right?’
The difficulty wasn’t as high as I imagined.
Maybe, maybe.
‘Am I stronger than I thought?’
Pop.
I took a step back.
“Wow, wow… Huh… !”
“Hey, intruder. a little bit… Well, slowly… .”
I heard the group gasping behind me. It was strange. Even though I didn’t use light techniques and just strengthened my legs with Auror and ran, my companions had a hard time because they were out of breath.
They are all hunters who have reached the 50th floor.
“…….”
I looked up while holding the holy sword.
Still in the basement of the Magic Tower. We were under the ground.
Beyond that wall, there must be a 50-story city spreading out.
‘Let me give it a try.’
I held the hilt of the sword tightly and activated the skill.
‘I throw away all memories of the hunters who chatted with me at the open-air bar.’
Wooooow!
The holy sword was wrapped in red aura. [Salvation of the Torn Goddess]. A skill that gains instantaneous power by sacrificing memories. Using the skill inherited from the Constellation Killer, I swung my sword towards the ceiling of the hallway.
One island.
A bloody storm raged. The noise of a stone wall collapsing rang out, and the roar of a storm that overturned it swirled around. The believers right behind them screamed. I looked up, swatting away the chunks of rock falling on the heads of the believers.
[‘The eyes that dwell in the labyrinth’ are astonished.]
Before I knew it, the ceiling was completely clear.
“oh.”
Gloomy dark clouds shone through the gap in the ceiling. The sky was always dark on the 50th floor. But even the inky sky was brighter than the ceiling of the underground hallway.
It feels like looking up into a hole at the bottom of a well.
“Is this happening?”
“…….”
The believers opened their mouths and looked at me.
“Please stand one by one. I’ll lift you up. What are you doing? If spiders come here, it will be a pain. “Let’s wait in line, observing courtesy and common sense.”
“Intruder… … .”
The magical boy trembled and opened his lips.
“What on earth is this… ?”
I shrugged my shoulders and answered.
“The boss of evil.”
