“What on earth are those bastards doing?”
“Who are you talking about?”
“no. “It’s nothing, so don’t worry.”
The subordinate tilted his head, but could not ask any more questions. This was because he was afraid of repercussions if he offended Bahur.
‘If you’re going to do that, don’t say anything.’
This means that thoughts do not exist for nothing! The subordinate, who did not have the courage to say those words out loud, glanced in the direction of the dungeon and thought.
“hey.”
“yes!”
“how will we do it?”
“which… “What do you mean?”
As the subordinate asked with difficulty, Bahur’s expression became contorted as if he were a murderer. My stomach went numb for no reason. However, among the subordinates who came with him, he was the most senior. The other guys were so scared of Bahur that they couldn’t even get close to him, their legs shaking.
“What should I do with that bastard who got in there?”
“Ask me that… If you ask, there is an answer! We’re going to go inside and kick him! “Wouldn’t that work?!”
“What about the soldiers and mercenaries outside?”
“Of course, it’s all over!”
“Tsk.”
Bahur looked at his subordinate with a pitiful look in his eyes and then turned his gaze back to the dungeon entrance.
It was a pathetic answer, but there was no clearer answer than that.
‘I think it would be quickest to just tear it down, right?’
There is also the most certain way to eliminate the mercenary guy named Aaron.
But there is one problem.
‘There may be another entrance.’
It’s not that I’m worried about the fact that I knocked down the dungeon but there’s another entrance and I might escape there. That’s something you can think about later.
The real problem is that your actions are exposed.
Moreover, there is a big difference between killing everyone and destroying a dungeon.
From the Fallen Empire’s point of view, soldiers were nothing more than expendable items, but dungeons were private property. This is not to say that there will be no retribution if the soldiers die, but that there will be a stronger reaction when the dungeon is destroyed.
You need to consider and choose which one will cause less damage.
‘The chase is the same anyway.’
If the Bahur Bandits were just a group of thieves, there would be no need to worry about this. We are going through such hardships because of the damn ‘enforcers of nightmares’.
“good.”
“Have you decided?”
“okay. “Knock them all to death.”
The subordinate looked at Bahur with a puzzled expression.
It was truly a plan worthy of an Auror Master.

Meanwhile, Jeron was witnessing a strange sight.
no.
I was experiencing it.
-Who the hell are you?
-How are you okay?
-Hey. It’s been a while since I saw a sane human being. How many years has it been?
The ‘ghosts’ approached us in a bold manner, like gangsters, and surrounded us, peppering us with questions. She apparently heard from Malcolm… … .
‘You didn’t hear anything?’
It was a thought that suddenly occurred to me.
Malcolm said he had never been inside a place where there were ‘ghosts’. So, how would you have known that the ‘ghosts’ were such shabby guys?
I’m afraid I may misunderstand you, but it was an accurate expression to say that I was confused. To put it simply, if the unidentified culprit in ‘Detective Ko
“Who are you?”
-and! Is he talking too?
-I thought I was mute because I hadn’t said anything until now.
“… … .”
Jeron seriously wondered if he had ever been this embarrassed recently.
‘There won’t be any.’
But if you asked me what I was embarrassed about, I couldn’t think of anything to say. This means that it is not something that is so impressive that it gets stuck in your memory. However, I will never forget the events I am experiencing now for the rest of my life.
-How old are you?
-Where do you live?
-Do you have a girlfriend?
-What about your family?
As the ‘ghosts’ conducted a census, Jeron let out a faint sigh and shook his head vigorously. These guys must have been lonely because they haven’t been able to talk to people outside for a long time. Otherwise, there was no way he would speak so aggressively to the point of giving people a headache.
‘Is this a new type of mental attack?’
If it were real, I was confident that I would praise it as being very effective. Right now, my mind was tangled and complicated like a skein of thread. It hurts like it’s going to explode.
‘Should we just destroy them all?’
The worry that the dungeon might collapse had long since disappeared from my mind. I wanted to take away the clairvoyance that was blocking the mental attack and explode my internal energy like a bomb, burying it all.
Right then.
-stop!
A huge ‘ghost’ appeared and gave orders to other ‘ghosts’. The ‘ghosts’ who had been showering questions around Jeron lost their appetite and retreated.
-Anyway, he seems like an old man.

-You’re probably trying to have fun on your own again.
-It was like that 10 years ago, and this time too… … .
The ‘ghosts’ retreated and grumbled. As if that wasn’t enough to stop him, the huge ‘wraith’ walked forward, keeping his eyes on Jeron.
‘Why is it so big?’
Jeron looked up blankly at the huge ‘wraith’. I would have to measure his exact height to find out, but my vague guess was that he was around 3m. However, the reason why Jeron was surprised was not because he was 3 meters tall.
This is because the form of the huge ‘wraith’ looked like a human.
‘Does the blood of the giants flow in your body?’
If I had a camera, I wanted to take pictures and take them to the academy to show them. At that moment, Jeron realized. When I attended the academy, I understood why other students looked at me like that.
-I’m sorry, but I am a pure-blooded human.
“Oh yeah? “I am also a pure-blooded human.”
-… … ?
When the giant ‘wraith’ made a gesture that he did not understand for a moment, Jeron briefly told an anecdote from the past. The story was that students at the academy mistakenly thought they had giant blood flowing in their bodies.
-I have heard many misunderstandings like that.
The huge ‘wraith’ laughed.
I could vaguely see the shapes of the eyes, nose, and mouth.
-Anyway, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen a customer who’s come this far and still maintains a sound mind.
“I heard earlier that it’s been almost 10 years.”
-If you’re talking about that ‘guy’, he was already half out of his mind. Perhaps his memories of coming here and returning are also hazy. Maybe I don’t remember it completely.
The huge ‘wraith’ calmly said that such things happened often and guided Jeron inside.
When asked where they were going, a huge ‘wraith’ answered.
-This is where the dungeon core is located.
“I heard that the dungeon’s core exploded?”
-I really don’t know anything about things these days.
Jeron was dumbfounded and stared blankly at the huge ‘wraith’.
‘Why do I have to hear this?’
-Cores are not simply a mass of magical power that maintains the existence of a dungeon. A gathering of power. If the core exploded and disappeared, there’s no way this dungeon would still exist, right? Also, there is no way we would be tied up here.
“Oh, I see.”
Jeron smiled awkwardly and scratched the back of his head. It would not be an illusion to feel the gaze of a gigantic ‘ghost’ staring down at you.
-and! How long have you been here?
-You look handsome. Of course, it’s not like me when I was alive.
-That’s terrible.
-Please die today.
-I would really like it if you said yes. I’m so sick of this place.
The ‘ghosts’ discover Jeron and start fighting.
Maybe it was because of the huge ‘ghost’, but it didn’t come close. It was truly fortunate for Jeron. Because I didn’t think I would know what I would do if my head hurt like it was going to explode again.
After a while, we arrived at the center of the dungeon where the core was.
-This is the core of the dungeon.
A core was seen floating in the air, shining brightly in purple. The huge ‘wraith’ stood at a distance as if it could no longer approach and spoke. At that moment, Jeron thought.
‘But isn’t he guiding me too obediently?’
The huge ‘wraith’ didn’t ask anything. I was led here naturally, as if I didn’t need to know why I came into the dungeon.
I recalled the sounds of the ‘ghosts’ talking.
-How old are you?
-Where do you live?
-Do you have a girlfriend?
-What about your family?
‘ah. ‘This is not it.’
Jeron shook his head and came to his senses. The confusion from earlier was so severe that it seemed like he was momentarily delirious.
I thought about it calmly.
The ‘ghosts’ had no hostility towards them. You might think that they came after the dungeon’s core, but they didn’t seem to care at all.
That means the core of the dungeon is not important to them.
Maybe it should disappear.
‘Because I said I was tied up because of the core.’
It’s finally been sorted out.
The reason why the giant ‘wraith’ guided him here without asking any questions.
“Do you want to remove the core?”
-right.
“Hmm.”
Jeron stared at the huge ‘wraith’ and then shifted his gaze to the core of the dungeon. I understand why it is said that it is not just a lump of magical power. Even if you combine dozens of Auror Masters, they are not as good as that single core. I felt that much power.
‘Did you say that was a collection of powers?’
I was curious about what kind of power was concentrated there.
The moment he was about to approach, a huge ‘wraith’ spoke to Jeron.
-You can’t just remove it.
“Then how do you get rid of it?”
-that… … .
Kugugoogung-!
The dungeon shook greatly when the giant ‘ghost’ was about to tell him how to remove the dungeon’s core.
-… shit. What kind of bastard is this?
‘The atmosphere was serious until just now.’
He is now a local gangster. But he didn’t seem to be in a position to relax.
I had a rough idea of what the situation would be.
After entering the dungeon, someone used Manana Aura. So the dungeon’s defense system is activated and is about to collapse.
‘What kind of crazy person is this?’
Jeron also thought of it like a huge ‘wraith’. It’s not about dying alone, it’s about dying together. This is truly crazy.
* * *
“Huh?”
The subordinate was embarrassed as the dungeon shook violently. However, when the shaking stopped shortly after, it was thought that this phenomenon occurred because Bahur’s aura was strong.
Of course, the person involved, Bahur, had different thoughts.
‘Is this the dungeon’s defense system?’
Bahur pushed the mercenary’s corpse, which was stuck on a sword like a skewer, with his foot and fell to the ground. He shook off the blood that was stuck on his sword body and slowly walked forward.
“Kill them all!”
“Make sure no one returns alive!”
“Ahh!”
“Uh, hurry up and request reinforcements… … !”
The sound of an intense battle coming from outside the dungeon.
Before long, a fishy smell was sucked into my nostrils.
“iced coffee. “It’s fragrant.”
Bahur muttered softly and slowly walked towards the depths.
* * *
-Ugh!
A huge ‘wraith’ urgently went to the core of the dungeon and manipulated something. At the same time, a huge amount of steam rose and the body of the huge ‘ghost’ became blurred. It seemed like a mirage that would soon disappear.
Jeron couldn’t help but ask.
“What did you do now?”
-The core of the dungeon was manipulated.
no.
I know that much because I have eyes, right?
