NOVEL NEXT chapter 9
9 – 1. Academy (9)
#9
Goo goo goo…
The match against Nightshade, which started out like a final showdown, ended so easily.
The first reason is that the damage Graul has already accumulated is considerable. The second reason is that the chemical attack was too strong.
Maybe it was because the flames cleared the darkness, and it wasn’t cool for him to summon zombies midway through, so it was easier to deal with. If it weren’t for the zombie goblins flocking in the first place, he would have been able to deal with it right away.
It’s strange that I spent so much time and stamina on a name in an E-rank dungeon. I was really surprised when I self-destructed as a last resort and scattered bone thorns everywhere.
“Keueun”
Growl, who brushed off the soot from his body with a snort, returned to my side with a languid expression. As if the effect of [Wildness] Was gone, there was no red airflow left.
I personally took out the thorns from the bones that were stuck in my side while protecting me, and in the meantime, healed the guy by infusing it with the magic I had recovered for a while.
The visual was a warrior who fought back with a wound, but it wasn’t even a big wound when I saw it. Perhaps because of his high strength, he couldn’t penetrate his skin and muscles before reaching his inner flesh. Is this the muscle defense that I only heard about?
If you sit down next to the guy who is lying down to recover and look up at the sky, all the black crows that were full of you just now have disappeared.
In the first place, they are decorative objects created inside the dungeon with the field property of a mountain.
As an analogy, NPCs. Although it is possible to temporarily make them APCs for the player’s team by taming them or having Hive temporarily lead them, it is impossible to take them outside the dungeon.
Then what am I doing now?
“It burns really well”
He is really doing a Buddhist scripture across the river. No, should I say it is a view beyond the mountain?
The sight of the blazing forest was no joke, to the point where I wondered if the voice telling me not to play with fire recklessly in the forest was because I had this in mind. The sight of the entire mountain turning red and spitting black smoke into the sky was a hell that could only be described as majestic.
The forest turns black and white. The clear sky becomes cloudy and polluted.
When a tree that burns and blackens in flames is knocked down and collapses on its side, the fire spreads to places where the flames have yet to reach. The flames use even completely burned trees as firewood, further increasing their momentum.
The ashes blown up here by the wind were like snowflakes. It is a toxic substance with a terrible burnt smell, but even that was beautiful when viewed with nature.
When does that turn off? You’re not supposed to be like that all day today, are you? I did it out of anger, but I was slowly getting nervous. Isn’t it normal for things like that to turn off quickly? It has to go off. I’ll do whatever it takes to find the boss.
[You have eliminated all enemies in the dungeon.]
[Dungeon Clear]
[After settlement, it will be sent out of the dungeon.]
Since I was watching the mountain burn up in a daze, the system threw a notification telling me to turn it off quickly. I rolled around with the name, but the boss said it was over without seeing his face. Does this mean blowing your nose without touching your hands?
As soon as the dungeon was cleared, system alarms popped up as if the settlement was overdue after conquering the village. Among them, I skipped all the redundant ones except for the ones that seemed important.
“I’m going to watch it anyway”
First, let’s look at the abilities of Growl, the main character of this dungeon.
[The level of Has risen.]
[The level of ‘S skill [Bite] Has increased.]
[The strength ability has increased by 1.]
[The level of ‘S skill [Wild] Has increased.]
[The strength ability has increased by 1.]
First of all, the level was 8, and the levels of skills that had been low for a while rose at once.
As expected, it is important to accumulate experience step by step through repeated training or defeating enemies of a similar level, but defeating more powerful enemies seemed to increase the growth.
I already have enough strength, so I invested 1 each in skill and intelligence for the selection ability. The last time I whimpered, I felt a bit sad. I confirmed the change in the hope that my head would get better at least a little.

For clearing an E-rank dungeon, the efficiency of experience wasn’t bad. Since the level of Growl was low from the beginning, the gap must have been felt even bigger.
I felt anew that the leveling up speed was on a different level than when I was growing Hive, and that the nurturing environment was so important.
It was really nice to see him developing as a melee dealer as well as I intended. Unlike Hive, who basically raised the points to focus on balance, maybe it’s because he’s a summoner specialized in strength.
If you think about the number of skills you have and the difference in level, you can understand why monsters and monsters are so strong as you go up to higher ranks. It’s already such a difference, but it’s only natural that the more you grow, the more you become a monster.
[The level of Has risen.]
[The level of the skill [Group Leadership] Of Has increased.]
[Intelligence has increased by 1.]
Hive’s skill and level rose by one, as if credit for making the last flames even bigger, in addition to subduing a number of crows, was recognized.
However, there was no significant change in the other side, probably because there was not much activity this time. It may look like the level has been initialized through evolution once, but if you look at the pure level, he is level 13. It is natural that there is a difference in experience.
Including the ability points that were not raised last time, I invested 1 each in strength and luck, and then confirmed the change.

Since Hive was born a crow, he couldn’t help but improve his skills no matter how well-balanced he shot. Most of the stats he could get by leveling up his skills were concentrated on his skills.
Still, the higher the ability, the better, so there is nothing wrong with it. Shooting in a good balance is also my greed and self-satisfaction in a way. Isn’t there a way that everything in the world will fall beautifully in 1’s and 0’s, 5’s and 10’s?
Next is me.
[The summoner’s job level has increased.]
[The level of the skill [Observation] Increases.]
[Intelligence has increased by 1.]
[The level of the skill [Staff] Increases.]
[The strength ability has increased by 1.]
[The level of the skill [Battle Command] Will increase.]
[The skill level has increased by 1.]
[The level of the skill [Endurance] Increases.]
[The strength ability has increased by 1.]
[The vibrant nature was burned without leaving a handful of life.]
[You have acquired the title [Burner].]
The main job level and most used skills in battle have all been leveled up. Other than that, there wasn’t much to worry about. Since it’s only an interim check, the real thing must be after Growl and I reach level 10.
The ability points obtained from leveling up were invested in luck and skill.

Good. It was very tidy. In the meantime, except for the annoying title part.
“What is [The Burner]…”
I felt like my stomach was twisted because the tone seemed to have deliberately released Banghwama as a middle school 2nd byeongsik. This is the title I first got in a dungeon. It even had an effect unlike the titles he had obtained so far.
+
[Name: Burner] [Rating: Rare] [Classification: Title]
[Description: A title given to those who single-handedly turned the forest, the treasure trove of nature and the cradle of life, into a wasteland of ashes. When worn, affinity to fire increases, and magical powers are enveloped with a faint energy of fire, increasing the effects of fire-related skills and magic.]
+
…Scam. It was a thought that came to my mind as soon as I saw the effect of the title.
It is limited to fire type, but it increases affinity and effect without penalty. It’s a title that makes you wonder if someone who uses fire-type abilities would go crazy wanting to have it to the point where their hands would come out of their necks.
But I wasn’t the only one who did the arson, so why did I get this title? The fire I lit was only thrown at the goblins and Nightshade, and it was not I who fueled the flames, but Hive and the crows he controlled.
Could it be that the owner should shoulder everything? Perhaps it was not a contract, but a summoned beast that shared my soul, so it was treated as an act of my own. The explanation was a little reluctant, but the effect alone was very good.
It’s not like I’m going to get fire-related skills right away, but I don’t know what people’s work will be like.
“Is this the last one?”
After clearing all the status windows that shimmered in front of me, the reward from the dungeon appeared.
[Number of subjugations: 251]
[Successfully subdued all enemies in the dungeon!]
[A Is paid for your amazing achievements.]
The number of monsters in [Goblin’s Lair] That I investigated in advance was 250. I understand that the reward you can get after killing all 250 of them is one of the accessories set called [Forest’s Gratitude].
It is made up of necklaces, rings, and earrings. When equipped, you can get a permanent buff called [Forest’s Blessing] That increases your intellect and magic recovery speed. Heard.
In other words, the one added over there is a Nightshade, a foreign substance that shouldn’t have been in this dungeon originally. That’s probably the reason why the reward I got has changed.
Is it simply that I haven’t been able to find it until now, or is there some condition? If it’s not both, it’s enough to find out by repeating it again in the future.
“Let’s go”
Clear the dungeon
As soon as I thought of it without even spitting it out, my whole body was enveloped in light, and when I came to my senses, I was thrown into the entrance of the dungeon. After roughly brushing off the ash dust that was on my body and moving my body, I pushed myself back into the shimmering entrance of the dungeon.
Reward? That’s enough to find out later.
“Let’s go to RTA this time”
RTAs. Short for real-time attack. In other words, there is a word called speed run. To put it simply, it can be seen as the exclusive property of old people who compete to see how quickly they can clear the game.
I roughly finished grasping the map and knew the location of the enemy. When entering the dungeon, the terrain changes randomly, so considering the difference, it was decided that just scouting the hive was sufficient.
If the system had a mapping function, it would have been more reliable, but if it wasn’t there, wouldn’t it be better to replace it with the existing one?
With the sensation of breaking through the thin film, the surrounding air changed. The world that had been burning up just now disappeared without any warming, and the clean forest air approached.
“I really can’t get used to it”
Well, since there is such a world, there is no problem of lack of resources if you get bored in your previous life. Magic energy is more efficient than nuclear fusion energy and there are many options, so there is no problem with radiation.
“Keruk?”
Diring!
[Quest…]
“Noisy”
Quad Deuk!
The moment I found the goblin, I turned off the audio system. At the same time, Graul bit the goblin in front of him and killed him. Maybe it was because he had already dealt with him, so he responded quickly.
The contents of the quests will be the same anyway, so it’s annoying to check them one by one. Because speed is life now. If not at this time, when should the summoner’s job advantage be used?
“Leave the two crows alone and catch them yourself”
“Dump!”
“Caw”
It would be convenient to hunt while gathering together based on their abilities, but it would take too long to look around. As long as the purpose is clear, it would be wiser to defeat each one individually and get to level 10 quickly.
The goal is to catch the boss you haven’t seen this time.
If something happens beyond my power, I can cancel their summons and call them back at any time, so there is nothing dangerous.
Growl and Hive leapt towards the depths of the forest. At the same time, I pushed the number of subjugations counted out of my sight and started to go around the outermost part of the forest, a little away from the mountain.
The reason is simple.
It was because there was a time difference between the forest burning and the dungeon being cleared. It’s too fast to think that the boss has fled out of the forest, so it’s natural to assume that the boss’s location is somewhere away from the fire.
In that respect, hints have already been given.
The name of this dungeon is [Goblin’s Lair]. There is no such thing as describing a forest as a ‘den’ just because goblins are encamped there.
Tung!
“Quan…!”
“Can an ordinary goblin be cut in one shot even with a rough hit?”
Basically, because of their high intellect, there are some that have high magic output, but the act of handling the pipe itself has become proficient, perhaps because the level of the skill [Stick] Has risen. The stamina problem, which was a problem, is gradually being resolved as [Endurance] Increases, so I’m thinking about getting a proper weapon soon.
As she made her way through the forest, dealing with the goblins she encountered, she sensed that she had found something through the hive. Relying on his senses, he headed in the direction of the Shadow Crow connected to the Hive, and a rugged terrain appeared with a mixture of forest and rocks.
“…Bingo”
On the outskirts of the dense forest, there was a place where the ground suddenly turned off even though it was connected to the forest. In the cracks in the rocks below, I could see what looked like the entrance to a cave. Bloody Graul and Hive were waiting around the entrance, as if they had already fought a battle.
“What, did you kill them all already?”
“Keong keng kong kong!”
Raoul shook his head at my question and pointed the tip of his nose towards me. What? You left it for me? When I checked, Graul’s level was 9, and the level of the [Bite] Skill had grown by one more level. Did you bite and kill so many goblins that your new skill level went up?
When I checked the system out of curiosity, the number of subjugations was 162. The number of goblins I killed was less than 30, and it took about 30 minutes to get here, so the two of us slaughtered about 130 of them.
…Oh, well, I killed it this far.
All you have to do is kill the children gathered in the village, but there is a limit to that. No matter how individual goblins are F rank, Growl’s growth is a bit abnormal. It was as if he was being compensated by the power of something.
Maybe it’s because this field called the forest is a hunting ground that suits his aptitude. The main stage of Gray Fang, the individual that became the base of Growl, was also in the forest.
“There is no need for such consideration, you bastard”
Whether I grow up or you grow up, both are helpful, so there is no need to show modest consideration. I couldn’t touch him because it was bloody, so I just hit him on the head as if knocking.
“Ki-ing…”
“Play as you like. I’ll take care of the aftermath.”
That is the duty of the owner. If your job level doesn’t go up, you can go around again until it does, and the reason I came here was because I wanted to fight a dungeon boss I hadn’t seen before.
After all, I couldn’t see the black goblin of the name until here, so if it’s not there, it means that it’s a mutant and a foreign substance.
“Lead the way”
“Kong!”
Following Graul, who gladly stood up at my command, entered the cave. Compared to the narrow entrance, the inside was quite huge, no matter how many times it was expanded. It didn’t seem like there was much difficulty in wielding the weapon at this level.
In other words, it also meant that the boss could be huge.
Damn, snooze… Gulp!
Inside the cavity, a goblin with a clearly gigantic body compared to the other goblins grabbed a handful of food with both hands and swallowed it whole without chewing it properly. Judging from the fruits and meat piled on both sides, it seems that this has not happened once or twice.
[You have encountered the boss.]
“Is it wrong?”
At the same time as the system’s voice, the fat goblin turned his head towards us. No, is it okay to call that a goblin? Only the appearance and skin color belonged to the goblins, but they were huge and fat enough to be thought of as a completely different race.
Kung, kung
Just getting up from the seat, the ground shook slightly.
“Kreureung!! Kureak?!”
As soon as he saw us, he spat and expressed his anger. He was excited to see the blood on Graul’s body. It was the same for the goblins around him. The guys who were busy transporting food prostrated themselves in front of the fat goblins raised their heads and screamed.
Kieek, kieek The guy who got even more excited by the loud noise slowly approached us. It’s more accurate to say that he was an orc rather than a goblin, with a height that seemed to be 2M and a body size that easily exceeded 100kg.
However, the moment he got completely close, the letters that started appearing above his head clearly appeared as if denying that thought.
[Boss – Grid Goblin]
“Gurlaaa!!!!”
The Grid Goblin roared and swung it straight at us.
“Please!”
“Kong!”
Grawl and I evaded by simultaneously widening the distance to the sides.
Thump!!!
The floor exploded at the same time as a huge blast sound. Stone dust and dirt were scattered everywhere. Because it was a cave, the ventilation was poor, so the thick covering obstructed the view.
Let’s leave that to Graul. My job is not to fight with that pig, but to deal with the goblins standing by my side. It raised magic power and wrapped it around like an iron pipe. What I felt during the fight was that the repulsive force was less when the mana was circulated like this, rather than directly inside the pipe.
It’s the difference between hitting with magical power and hitting with strength. There is nothing that can’t put magic into the pipe if you force it, but the efficiency was bad.
From the moment the Grid Goblin moved, as I ran towards the guys busily moving behind me, a goblin wearing a black hood and a slightly muscular goblin with an ax appeared in front of me. It was the Warrior and Thief that I had encountered before.
“Keryrik!”
“Ke…!”
They appeared from the rear as if protecting the goblins who were trying to pick up a bow or a stone. A quick look behind him saw a goblin wearing a crown of feathers over his head, purring eagerly at the goblins.
It was an object that did not exist before. In addition, a guy wearing a giant robe like a robe and an archer goblin wearing a hat made of leaves appeared. However, the black goblin he was watching the most closely was nowhere to be seen.
‘No’
This made it clear. A black goblin is an irregular, that is, a foreign substance intentionally planted by someone. Isn’t it really cynical? It means that this happened from the day the inspectors came and raided the academy.
If there had been a case like the one before, Hong Soo Ah wouldn’t have given me permission to enter the dungeon.
The first reason is that I am a student here, and the second reason is that I am a factor in the country. This is because if I suffer a fatal injury or a disability equivalent to it due to an unexpected event, it will lead to national loss.
I won’t treat things like this just for simple retaliation. Let’s trust her here, her ex-soldier. If the back turns, you know what to do.
It was a long discussion, but it was finally established that the faculty knew nothing about the situation.
It’s fortunate that people didn’t crowd because it’s right after the new semester started. If these things were left unattended, things might get out of hand. If the people who entered the dungeon die, they will be treated as missing.
The academy distributes emergency escape items separately to prevent being isolated in the dungeon in case of emergency, but from my point of view, there is a strong possibility that the items are also tampered with.
The only way to escape is to clear the mission and declare the dungeon clear, but that is a method that can only be used in low dungeons. You will be unable to go forward or backward.
If the situation becomes serious, the aftermath of the chaos will continue through the students to society.
All the students here are talented people who have been praised as geniuses or giraffes all over the world. The son of a famous family, the person of a leading company, the pride of the country, etc… There is no way that there is no connection.
The reason we’ve been able to send them here so far is that the academy is more than dangerous. When that balance is broken, people become anxious. Then, the darkness must have used this to shake the academy inside and out again.
“Who really planned it?”
Temperature is nasty and nasty. I immediately took out the ax that was hanging from my waist and threw it at the goblin thief as if swinging it, aiming at the goblin warrior’s leg and hitting the iron pipe at the same time.
Tung! Poududeuk!
“Keah…!!”
The goblin warrior’s legs were broken like millet in an attack that combined the proficiency obtained from the skill, the strength of 12, and magic power. Blindfolded by the bone protruding through his flesh, the fellow screamed as he swung his ax at random, trying to slash me.
However, with the skill level approaching 30, I was able to clearly grasp the trajectory of the crude attack that was struggling with pain. When [Observation] Was added to that, the attack began to look sluggish, as if it were in slow motion.
Booung!!!
“Slow”
“Kek…?!”
I’m not afraid of an attack that breaks my center. Taking advantage of his swing, I burrowed into his side and stepped back instead of him, targeting the goblin thief, who was preparing the moment to attack, and swung an iron pipe full of magic power.
f*ck!! Kwajik!
The guy, whose head was crushed and exploded, collapsed on his seat. One with this.
I deliberately used the power I had swung to make a great turn without stopping. The rapid rotation spun my vision for an instant, but I did not lose my strength in the hand holding the pipe.
The uplift, which was applied using centrifugal force, was sucked into the still empty back of the head.
Tung!!
“Like…”
The back of the warrior’s head was completely sunken, although the destructive power as before did not come out, probably because of the unstable posture. I thought he was half dead, but just in case, I stepped on the back of his neck, broke it completely, and threw him right back.
Shuwook!!
Something quickly pierced the spot where I was. A goblin holding a bow was glaring at me on the other side, and behind it, goblins with stones ready were lined up. A goblin wearing a crown of feathers solemnly appeared from that gap.
“Kek! Kekekekekek!!”
Once he took one look at where Graul was fighting, he waved at me and screamed. The goblin reloaded the bow and began to pull the bowstring, and the goblins behind them prepared to throw stones.
“He writes strategy on the subject of a f*cking goblin”
Escape? Late. Even if I turn around and run away now, the arrows will be aimed at me. I quickly searched the surroundings for cover, but I couldn’t find anything plausible. The only thing that caught my eye was the goblin warrior I had just defeated.
“Tsk”
Is it better than being stoned to death? I quickly turned the goblin warrior’s corpse around and crouched over her body.
“Kerek.. Kururura!!”
“Kiik!!!”
To-do-do-do-do-do-do!!!
The sound of the stones falling between the bodies was like rain falling. On the way, the corpse’s arm was broken and the corpse was shaken by the shock, so it could not be completely stopped. Fragments of rocks that fell to the ground splashed in the face. Something hot ran down my cheek along with a tingling pain.
I clenched my teeth and strengthened the mana that was wrapped around my body. Not yet, not yet. Aiming for the moment when they were reloading to throw stones again, I came into this cave and called the name of the one I had never called before.
“Hive!!”
“Kahah!”
The hive that had been hiding in the dark and waiting quickly popped out leaving a dark blue afterimage. It was so fast that I couldn’t follow it with my own eyes.
Skill [Dark Rush]. If you hide yourself in the darkness, your strength and skill increase by 3 immediately, and you can fly at high speed without sound.
Kwajik!
Through the cracks in the tattered corpse, I could see the hive eating the eyes of a goblin wearing a feather crown. At the same time, shadow crows burst out of the hive’s arms, stirring up a group of goblins and causing chaos.
Tuduk, tuk
The moment the falling stone was directed at the hives and not at me, I got out of the corpse and ran fast.
Hey!!
At that time, I swung the iron pipe toward the archer goblin without hesitation at the sound of the wind.
“I was only looking at you. Baby!!”
f*ck!
A broken arrow fell to the floor. As if this was unexpected, he panicked and tried to quickly carry the arrow again, but I threw the bone ax containing magic first.
Kwajik!
“Kep…”
The guy with his head split in half with the leaf cap threw his arms in the air a few times before falling flat on his head. The goblins who noticed the change began to cry, but the commander who gave the order had already collapsed.
“Down!!!”
Kwajak! Whoops!
Anyway, ordinary goblins aren’t even a handful. Just tens of thousands of bugs. As all the goblins that attacked me returned to their deaths with their heads broken or their necks broken, the fear-stained ones began to run away.
Hwaaak!
At that time, the inside of the cave became bright. The existing torch did not move. A mass of fire suddenly appeared in the air.
“Kerr, Keke, Kerrureuk”
“…Whoa, the f*ck really never ends”
I turned the head into an idiot, so what’s wrong with the wizard next? I got goosebumps thinking that the ball would have come flying if I had held out longer.
It was really fortunate that I kept the hive hidden. The problem is that the hive is now obsessed with the command object, so I have to move to stop that goblin, and there’s too much trash in my way to run.
I didn’t run forward, I just went backwards. It wasn’t long before the goblin’s head was split in half. Without command, the goblin pups were nothing more than ragtags. The proof is that
As if they had no morals, the goblins I killed began to squirm while stealing equipment from each other, and among them, some of them whimpered and struggled to get the bone ax stuck in their heads.
“Go away, f*ck you!”
Puck!!
I smashed the head of the guy who coveted the axe with an iron pipe, then lifted the bone axe and smashed the face of the goblin who was looting the corpse without my permission.
Bagak!
“Do not disturb!”
With a big swing of the axe, he chased away the goblins around him, then hung the axe over his shoulder to bring his magic power to its limit.
Ppu deudeuk, poudeudeuk
The ax in my hand started shaking like a smart phone’s vibration mode. As the bones cracked, I checked the pale red magic power flowing faintly from the gap, and I calmed down and measured the distance.
“Rotten”
…The distance is too far to just throw it like this. It seemed that the magic would be completed first to get closer.
Awesome!
I threw the pipe on the floor and grabbed the handle of the ax with both hands. Mobilizes mana to rapidly rotate the body. I’ve never done a shot put before, but I have to cover it somehow with my mana and abilities. I opened my eyes at the fast-moving background and threw it precisely at the goblin wearing the mat.
“Huh!”
Booooong!!!
The white bone ax flew with the sound of a huge wind that I didn’t expect I had thrown. Perhaps because it was an unfamiliar action, the ax did not reach the goblin. But the moment the ax hit the ground
Kwaaang!!!!
The magical energy contained in it exploded, shattering the ground where the goblin, covered in rags, was standing. The fireball that was completed in a matter of seconds landed on the back of the Grid Goblin who was fighting on the other side, not where I was.
“……..!!!!!!!”
It started screaming and rolling around to put out the fire on its back. Should I call this a blessing in disguise?
“…Whoop, whoop”
Taking a deep breath and waiting for the spinning balance to be corrected, I grabbed the metal pipe that had fallen on the floor and put it on his shoulder. Exhausted This is the first time I’ve ever moved so violently since my reincarnation.
My whole body was soaked with sweat, and the clingy clothes made me feel bad. It smelled strange, probably because it was colliding with the goblin’s corpse, and all I could think about was wanting to wash it quickly.
“f*ck…”
I don’t know why I have to suffer like this. I just want to rest in peace, but the world didn’t leave me alone. How the hell can I make this damned world a little more peaceful? Mechanically crushing the heads of the goblins, he moved forward.
“Cow!”
Hive returned to my side as I arrived.
“Keeck! KEAEAK!!”
“You’re noisy, you bastard”
Kang!
As I swung the iron pipe at the head of the guy who ran after it, he screamed and fell down. He deliberately controlled it so that he would not die. After stepping on both of his shoulders, he grabbed his head and lifted it up, concentrating his magic power into his grip.
“Keek, keek, keek, keewek…!!”
He shook his legs desperately to get him out of my grasp, but to no avail. His shattered shoulder is only rattling and he’s not playing his part. As if there was something in the commander’s voice, the eyes of the scattered goblins gathered here at once.
It was the same for the Grid Goblin who was writhing in pain. Just looking at it, the angle came out. That stupid and gluttonous pig is acting as the king of this oyster, but this guy is the real deal. It is the so-called pants boss.
Kwaduk!
“Kevreb…”
In the place where everyone’s eyes gathered, I smashed his head. The sensation of squeezing something in his hand and crushing it was clearly transmitted. Feeling bad about that vividness, I roughly threw the corpse of what used to be a goblin into the air.
Iron Puck
His head bones were already broken, so the sound of him falling to the floor sounded like a water balloon bursting. Fear began to form in the eyes of the guys who were looking at me. Yes, a primitive emotion that a living thing should have.
Forcibly brought out the emotions that had been erased by the commander’s skill by cutting them off and showing off at the same time.
As I headed forward, I snorted at the guys who hesitated and opened the distance. It was very sad to see him quietly looking for a way to run away with the commander’s death.
“Grrr… Grrr…”
Thanks to that, I was able to come to the Grid Goblin in one go. His whole body was full of scars, so it was quick to find a healthy place. He seemed to be exhausted from fighting that Raoul, and his shoulders were shaking and he was breathing heavily.
Graul’s body wasn’t completely normal either. He stumbled, unable to balance properly, as if he had been hit somewhere, but did not lose sight of the enemy.
“Grawl”
“Ahhhhh!!”
[The wolf’s bravery boosts the body’s energy.]
[For a certain period of time, the stats of strength and skill increase by 3.]
[Gain some resistance to fear.]
Now, I ran forward past the guy who gave out a cool howl right away with a chuck.
“Guruaaa!!!”
Boom!
I didn’t see the intensity I had seen for the first time in the logs aiming at me. I ducked down to aim for the head and avoided the swinging bat.
Pang! Pudeuk
“Guruuaaa…”
With a clear sound, the guy’s wrist broke. The guy who lost even the bat he was holding, probably because of that, had lost the strength in his grip. He grabbed his hand and glared at me with bloody tears in his eyes.
“What, what to do”
This is the one I want to complain about. I did this sh*t to try to kill you, but would you be as f*cked up as me? It’s not your exclusive property to fill it up with supplies.
“Grrra… Graaa!!!!”
He reached out the other hand and made a fist, but it was too slow. I easily dodged it by moving my body sideways. Taking advantage of that gap, Raul bit the guy’s hand and twisted his body as if spinning rapidly at the same time, tearing off one of his fingers.
“….!!!!”
The Grid Goblins started rampaging. I took a step back and watched the riotous guy. I’ll get tired of that someday I didn’t stop using the hive to draw attention to him so that he couldn’t come to his senses.
“Just die”
I want to wash quickly. There are things to report and a mountain of things to deal with. I want to stretch out and sleep like this, but I put up with it because I think the future me will be more f*cked up.
As if he understood what I was saying, the moment his eyes focused on me, Graul jumped up from behind and bit him on the neck.
“Gruaaa…!”
Thump! Thud! Thud!
Hive pecked at the guy’s eye, aiming for the gap where he struggled to get Raoul out of his neck. There was no longer a warrior’s appearance as he stomped his feet, swinging his wrist to the arm on the broken side.
Aiming for the moment one leg came off the ground, I hit the Grid Goblin’s other hamstring.
Kang!
As the impact forced my legs to bend, I lost my balance because I couldn’t support the huge body. Meanwhile, Growl did not let go of the bitten neck. The teeth, which had not been able to penetrate his flesh and were completely engulfed in it, ended up ripping out his flesh.
Blood splattered everywhere. The guy, who seemed to have lost his strength, fell on his face and breathed heavily.
In the meantime, Hive hid in the darkness and began to look around, and I finally approached the Grid Goblin, who was at eye level, and injected strong magic into the pipe.
Ppajik
“Ah”
I thought it would last because it was stronger than I thought, but it seems that it has reached its limit because it is not a weapon in the end. I smiled bitterly at the crack that stretched from the end to the bandage I wrapped.
“Well, I did use it for a long time”
Kwajik!
This is the end. I aimed at the Grid Goblin’s head and hit the pipe down, and the Grid Goblin’s head snapped at the same time as it was pierced.
Pang! Tangrang
At the same time, the crack grew and the broken iron pipe fell to the ground. Well written so far. I hit the head of the guy whose tongue was pulled out with the fragments of the remaining iron pipe, but there was no movement.
“Dead”
The moment I was certain of the guy’s death, the system rang.
[Successfully subdued the boss [Grid Goblin].]
Confirmation is over. Even if I wipe out all the remaining goblins, there won’t be any news. I must have leveled up on the way, and the summoner’s level became 9. Growl had just reached level 10 through hunting, so he had only achieved half of his goal.
“…Clear”
I wanted to do more, but to be honest, I didn’t think I would be able to do it because I was exhausted. If this was a game, I would be able to work hard all day long, but moving my body myself caused more physical fatigue than I could have imagined.
[Dungeon Clear]
[After settlement, it will be sent out of the dungeon.]
Similarly, I skipped all system messages that popped up at once and went on to the reward.
[Number of subjugations: 217]
[You will obtain As a clear reward.]
+
[Name: Reciprocation of the Forest – Ring] [Type: Accessory] [Rating: Rare]
[Description: A ring that makes your head feel clearer when you wear it. On the inside of the silver ring, the phrase Is engraved.]
[Intellect increases by 3 when equipped.]
[Intellect increases by 3 additionally when wearing the .]
[ Increases Luck by 3 additionally.]
+
What I got as a reward was okay. In the center of the simple silver ring, a small green jewel was imprinted in the shape of a leaf. Even though the ring was larger than my finger, the moment I put it on, it changed into a shape that fit my hand.
Most of the artifacts obtained as rewards from dungeons feel like this. The size changes automatically according to the wearer.
If you check the status window, there is an additional increase of (+ 3) next to your intelligence ability.
There is nothing to gain from this dungeon with this. Going around Nogada and collecting a set of accessories. It’s possible even if it’s not now, so let’s postpone it if we can. I don’t have any weapons to use, so even if I want to do more, it’s impossible. Even if you tell me to do it because it’s hard, I’ll cut my stomach and lie down.
“First of all… I have to evolve”
It is the waiting time for Growl to evolve.
