00247 First Request ———————————————– ————————–=
“Isn’t it strange? Usually when you are in a dangerous situation. “It would be more natural to say ‘help me’ or ‘help me’ rather than asking to be saved.”
“then… . According to what the clan lord said. Are you saying they are still in an isolated environment and there is a chance they are alive?”
“At that time. So, the two clans that have friendly relations with Yeolganek also dispatched rescue teams. Well, a lot of time has passed now. In this case, there is no contact at all.”
When I drop the sun and moon sword that was touching the map, Go Yeon-ju tilts his head with an expression that makes sense. The kids still had puzzled expressions on their faces, but a few others seemed to have figured it out. After glancing at Hayeon, who was carefully examining the records, I continued speaking in a low voice.
“It is said that Istantel Row stopped the expedition to the Canyon of Hallucinations in the shallows in the first place. However, they dared to go on an expedition despite the representative clan’s dissuasion.”
“Did you smell something?”
“well. You’ll have to go into it to find out, but I think the chances are high. “If we follow their traces, we will find some answers.”
“They’re bastards. They clean up the poop, and we clean it up. sifter.”
Vivien grumbled with a dissatisfied look on her face. He’s already busy with new research, but he doesn’t seem to like having his time taken away by an expedition. In response, “But the reward is clear poop removal. And you might find a pearl in the poop, right?” I wanted to say that. However, when he saw Hayeon across from him covering her mouth with a displeased look on her face, he decided to just quit.
‘Now I have to talk about the personnel selection… . Tsk. ‘Why is there only one priest?’
While tapping the sheath of the sword on my left palm, I glanced at the clan members, and clicked my tongue when I saw Ansol. Although he has prepared in many ways, he does not know what variables will arise, both internally and externally, once he enters. And when considering field effects, the person most exposed to variables was Ansol.
Thinking that I had no choice but to be as cautious as possible, I decided to announce the appointments I had planned in advance.
“Like I said yesterday. We can’t take everyone on this expedition. If we accept this request and leave the city, we will immediately begin construction of the clan house’s foundation. ah. The construction amount was decided to be paid in arrears with the guarantee of Istantel Row.”
“If you say it’s foundation work… .”
“You don’t have to worry. We decided to save most of the structure of the building and prioritize cleaning above all else. “We decided to send an official, so it won’t be too difficult.”
“okay. This is a director’s role that is not even mentioned… .”
Hayeon was obviously smart when it came to her major, but she seemed secretly unsure about architecture. After reassuring her, she turned her gaze towards Vivian this time.
“Although we have prepared various preparations, we must place importance on mobility in the Plateau of Delusion and the Canyon of Illusion. Therefore, we plan to mainly exclude wizards, who are currently the most common class in the Mercantile Clan. then… . User Jeong Ha-yeon.”
“yes. all right.”
Perhaps because they had already talked about it, Hayeon answered calmly and nodded. I also nodded and immediately called out the next person to be excluded.
“Vivien la Clacidus.”
“huh? me too?”
“okay. I think you’ll be a little dizzy this time because of the unicorn’s horn. So, there is no need to participate in the expedition. “Please stay and focus on your research.”
“yes… . It’s okay, but… . But now that the scale has grown, it’s a bit difficult to do it alone.”
Of course it is. Hayeon is working on the clan house. Vivien researches elixirs. Even though the work was divided like this, it might be burdensome for each person to handle it alone, so they needed one more person to step in and help them both. Perhaps the best user for this job is… .
“User Shin Sang-yong.”
“yes yes. “Am I excluded?”
“That’s right. However, Shin Sang-yong will have to help not only with the elixir research but also with Jeong Ha-yeon’s work.”
“ah… . yes. All right.”
Shin Sang-yong was close to Jeong Ha-yeon and was a central figure in Vivien’s research. If his tendencies are warlike, he may be dissatisfied with the exclusion from the expedition, but there will be no major complaints as he pursues stability in the first place. After checking his facial expression, I opened my mouth in an affirming tone.
“This is the end of the exclusion. The players selected for this expedition are me, user Go Yeon-ju, An Hyun, An Sol, Yu-jeong Lee, Han-byeol Kim, and Han-gyeol Baek. “We will conclude with 7 people leaving.”
As soon as I finished speaking, the participants began to look at each other with surprised expressions. Except for me and Ko Yeon-joo. In some ways, the three were Mercenary’s main users. However, Mercenary’s squad is not yet thick or evenly balanced. He felt that since he could not take more or leave behind, taking all things into consideration, now was the perfect time.
“Just a few more details, and we will conclude the meeting shortly.”
“… … .”
quiet. No one opens their mouth. Everyone was giving me approving looks. I just took a deep breath and caught my breath. Now that the important details have been delivered, it is now time to finish.
“Users Kim Han-byeol and Baek Han-gyeol.”
“yes.”
“yes!”
“We will open the warehouse, so you can choose a gem that matches Baek Han-gyeol’s wavelength there. And the two of you should start practicing coordinating with each other starting today. and… . Anhyeon? “When the meeting is over, take them both to the room where the equipment is.”
After receiving my instructions, Ahn Hyeon said, “I understand.” He answered. However, he licked his lips with a look of disappointment on his face, as if it was a waste of jewels.
“Ansol, Yujeong Lee. You two, please procure the supplies needed for this expedition. “I will tell you the list of supplies.”
“yes.”
“I understand, brother.”
The two answered calmly. Lee Yu-jeong’s speaking style, which did not speak informally, felt a little strange, but when I thought about it, I realized that this was actually okay.
“High user performance. “Send a messenger to Istantel Row accepting the request.”
“All right. Clan Lord.”
After bowing my head slightly and making a loud reply, I looked at everyone and opened my mouth again.
“If anyone would like to express a different opinion, please let us know here.”
“… … .”
“I don’t think there is one. For reference, I think the expedition will start in three days. Therefore, we hope that each person can complete their assigned roles within two days if possible. then… .”
After pausing for a moment, I dropped the Sun-Moon God Sword I was holding in both hands. Soon, the sound of the blade of the sheath hitting the floor was heard and everyone’s eyes were focused on me.
“We will conclude this meeting.”
*
The sky was very clear. As I lean against the entrance and look up at the sky, I see a clear sky without a single cloud.
None of the clan members have come down yet. I took out a pack of tobacco from my pocket to wait for them. Since I might not be able to smoke often during the expedition, I was planning on burning as much as I could now.
Just as I was about to light the fire, I heard someone coming down the stairs to the first floor.
“ah.”
“uh.”
When I turned my head with the tobacco in my mouth, I could see Im Hanna looking at me with her eyes wide open. Feeling embarrassed, I took the tobacco out of my mouth again. She smiled brightly and came towards me.
“are you okay. “You can burn it.”
“hmm. “Isn’t the Love House non-smoking?”
“There are some kids who secretly smoke in their rooms. So it’s okay.”
“No, but… .”
As I hesitated, Im Hanna lifted up my hand holding the tobacco and placed it directly on my lips. Suddenly, it occurred to me that her hand wrapped around mine was very warm.
Chiik, chiik.
In the end, I couldn’t refuse Im Hanna’s sincerity in lighting the fire herself, so I took a deep sip. As she let out a long puff of smoke in a satisfied mood, her kind voice flowed into my ears again.
“It looks busy upstairs. I guess you’re going out of town today?”

“Didn’t the clan members tell you?”
“We haven’t even talked much lately. “Everyone has been very busy since the Mercantile Lord came.”
“okay… . yes. I’m thinking of going on an expedition today. It is expected to take a while as the distance is long. However, not everyone is leaving, just a few people are leaving, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
“Oh my. “It’s okay.”
Im Hanna waved her hands and smiled slightly. She accordingly caught her gaze going down to her breasts, which were shaking ever so slightly, and she deliberately turned her gaze to her steps. Fortunately, I started to see clan members coming down the stairs one by one. But the moment I saw those two faces, I had to retract what I thought was a relief.
The two approached where Im Hannah and I were, but soon stopped and started talking loudly.
“also… .”
“Oh, no… . Soohyun can’t do that… . I’m sure Hanna hit her tail… .”
“Soohyun might also have feelings… . Then the two have feelings… .”
“It’s definitely possible… . Maybe it’s already too late… .”
It was clearly taking the form of whispering, but some of what was being said could be heard. It was clear that the words were being spoken deliberately to be heard. I was dumbfounded and blew smoke out of her nose, and Im Hanna waved both her hands with a helpless expression on her face and said,
“Oh, sisters. “It’s not like that.”
Im Hanna explained, but the suspicious looks from the two did not go away. Eventually, when his eyes turned to me, I quickly removed the tobacco I was holding and turned around. It wasn’t because I had a hard time withstanding those stares, it was because I wanted to throw away the tobacco outside.
The only thing that made me turn my head, which had been so intently looking outside, back inward, was when the clan members who had finished preparing started coming down the stairs.
Among the people who came down next, the users who stood first were Ahn Hyeon and Baek Han-gyeol. Baek Han-gyeol was no longer wearing his User Academy uniform. However, they did not provide any good equipment; all they had was leather armor and basic clothing purchased from a store. However, the black gloves on one hand and the Hopron shield held in both hands could be seen as unusual.
“brother. Thank you.”
“What am I thankful for? Tsk tsk. you dude Don’t lose the Gloves of Reduction. That’s really precious. “I’m only lending it to you for a while.”
“lol. yes. I won’t lose it. But are you really okay? “I heard that the spear is very heavy.”
“huh? Oh, it’s okay. “I practiced a lot and can hold it with both hands.”
As if wanting to show off his power, Ahn Hyun lifted his jet-black spear and swung it around on the narrow stairs. Then a weak scream came from behind along with the sound of Kang.
There was a single, shining white film flashing there. Anhyeon swung his spear without realizing it and almost hit Ansol who was behind him, but fortunately, the improved shield of the guardian popped out in time to block him. Ansol looked upset for ten years, but then she screamed at Anhyeon. When she saw Ahn Hyun hastily bowing his head and apologizing, she couldn’t help but sigh.
“brother. Ready! “Everyone came down~.”
“I told you to unify your speech.”
“Hi-Hi. I suddenly tried to fix it because I wasn’t used to it. yo. this.”
“You only need to distinguish between vacant and private seats. Anyway, line up outside the clan members. “I will follow you soon.”
“huh! “No, yes!”
Yujeong gently stroked her light-colored earrings, smiled awkwardly, and immediately ran away as if she was flying. After staring at it for a while, she suddenly felt a new emotion. When we first set out for
Those who leave go out, and those who stay stay. Soon, the clan members participating in this expedition left the entrance, and I turned my head towards the four remaining inside. There, Ha-yeon, Vivien, Shin Sang-yong, and Lim Hanna were looking only at me.
“Su-hyun. You must come back. “Don’t worry about us.”
“Kim Soohyun! If you find any good ingredients, be sure to bring them!”
“Lee, leader. I’m sorry that you’re left like this. Instead, we will proceed with the work reliably.”
“Merchantry Lord. take care… .”
Shin Sang-yong nodded and listened, but paused for a moment at Im Hanna’s last words. Even though she was clearly not a member of our clan, it didn’t feel strange to talk among them. I tilted my head slightly, then nodded and answered in a calm voice.
“yes. There won’t be any major problems. “It will take about 3 weeks, so please be patient in the meantime.”
As I look outside the entrance, I see Go Yeon-ju lining up his clan members. I just turned around and went down the stairs.
The sky was still very clear. Personally, I would say it was the perfect day to go on an expedition. The thought of cutting with a knife for the first time in a while made me feel a little excited.
After going down the stairs feeling refreshed, I walked to the front of the lined up clan members.
“Then let’s leave.”
“brother. Which door will you go out through?”
“There’s no need to go back… . “Let’s go to the east gate.”
Standing next to me was Ahn Hyeon, who played the role of tank. Seeing that he is touching the window quite familiarly, it looks like he wants to go outside immediately. In response to his expectations, I walked quickly toward the east gate. Immediately afterwards, I began to hear several footsteps following me.
With the sound of those footsteps, we enter the canyon of hallucination. No, it marked the beginning of an expedition to a place that would later be called
—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=
hello. This is Ro Yujin.
Well, readers. I would like to apologize for one thing. As I told you before, I am currently preparing for the upcoming final exams. Then I have to study, but since I’m working on a novel at the same time, I’m running out of time. Just today, I only reworked the parts I studied yesterday and couldn’t make any new progress. ㅜ.ㅠ
So, I plan to save as much time as possible. What I would like to ask is that I will continue the series as much as possible, so I would like to take a break from reviews and reviews at least until the exam is over. That doesn’t mean I don’t read the comments (since you can check them on mobile as well). If there’s anything that’s absolutely necessary, I’ll also reply using comments or messages.
I hope for the readers’ understanding, and I will leave for today. thank you
I hope the exam ends quickly. ha.
fantasy,
