Admission is a waste of time (43)
Lesson 10. You are my master – 3
Trick Room.
A tower term referring to a space governed by special rules and order.
Although it is said to appear extremely rarely even inside the tower, it is not something new in the exploration of Ban Yu-won and his party.
There are certain rules that must never be broken in that space, and anyone who breaks them will be severely penalized by the tower.
Of course, as with all difficult rooms in the tower, if you clear the Trick Room, you can get a definite reward.
“Kuuuuuu, he’s ignorant but he’s amazing. How could he have such incredible strength right up until the moment he lost his life… …!”
I guess the penalty Light received this time is ‘strengthening the enemy’.
At the same time, his strength seemed to have weakened.
Perhaps it was his mood, but Ban Yu-won gritted his teeth as he looked at the Orc Centurion Kuros, who seemed to have turned black compared to when he first appeared.
“under.”
Meanwhile, Dokgo Yeon, who watched the situation flow like water from Light’s charge to his death, just laughed in disbelief.
“I knew that sword had mental effects, but I didn’t know it could render a person so crippled.”
It was a scathing assessment.
Of course, Ban Yu-won couldn’t possibly believe that Light’s actions just now were coming from a person in his right mind.
I haven’t known Light very long, but I know he’s not that short-tempered.
It was impossible for him to cut down the last orc in Room 15 without thinking about it, and it was also impossible for him to ignore the order of the Trick Room and charge at the orc centurion.
Perhaps the fact that he had not been able to hold a sword during the entire expedition had brought about even greater backlash, Ban Yu-won thought.
“I really can’t trust that sword. I’ll make that mistake again at a crucial moment… … I’ll have to go out and give him a serious lesson.”
“But for now, let’s focus on him.”
“no.”
Dokgo Yeon spoke firmly and took a step forward.
At that moment, a dull vibration was heard and a huge pressure was applied to her shoulder.
Ban Yu-won tried to reach out to the string of pressure that was tormenting her, but Dokgo Yeon stopped her.
“With Light dead, there’s no point in exploring any further. So, wouldn’t it be better to take this opportunity to experience for myself how great a price it is to break the rules of the Trick Room?”
“you…….”
Ban Yu-won made a bewildered expression, not being able to properly understand what she was saying.
I thought I knew a lot about Dokgo Yeon, but that was also an illusion.
“Hahahahahahahahahaha! How foolish! How foolish! Do you not know the order of this place, or do you even think of surviving against the absolute order with your insignificant body!”
“joy.”
The orc centurion Kuros, who immediately noticed that Dokgoyeon was not weak, smiled cheerfully as he saw her footsteps becoming heavier.
Dokgo Yeon snorted and twisted his shoulders as if enjoying the pressure that was pressing down on his entire body.
And then.
“I’ll leave first. Ban Yu-won and the beast, you two can get along well.”
“what……?”
Dokgo Yeon turns her head toward Ban Yu-won and speaks while feeling terrible pressure that makes it difficult to even take a single step.
A hint of a smile appeared on her lips.
“Don’t forget what I said before you entered the tower.”
Maybe she.
Did you intentionally leave Ban Yu-won and Ruchel alone?
“Die, you ignorant man!”
A huge halberd swung down at Dokgoyeon.
The moment he got closer to Dokgo Yeon, Ban Yu-won clearly saw that the pressure on his halberd was doubled.
Some of the strings of pressure that had been weighing her down were lifted up by the halberd and assimilated.
“… … Huh!”
At that moment, the halberd’s movements and the bastard’s body balance were inevitably distorted, and Dokgoyeon took advantage of the opening that occurred and drew his sword.
-Saaa
-Kwaaaaang!
Immediately after the short sword’s blade beautifully cut through the air.
Her body was crushed to death by the halberd.
She, who would have been able to fight one-on-one and overpower her opponent at any time, was rendered helpless in return for breaking the order of the Trick Room.
‘No, I wasn’t helpless.’
After her death, Ban Yu-won, who had collected everything that was left in the place, blankly raised his head and examined the results of her swordsmanship.
“Ugh, ugh!”
With just one stroke of the sword, one cut.
The orc centurion screamed in pain as he was stabbed in the right side of his waist and down his left arm.
“My arm, my arm!”
The bastard’s left arm could not withstand the blow and fell off, rolling on the floor.
Ban Yu-won could see that the aura of death that had not yet disappeared even after she had been lost (a word meaning to die in the tower) was lingering in the orc centurion’s wounds, causing him pain.
“That punk, that bitch… …!”
The one-armed orc gritted his teeth and raised his other arm, but that arm was also badly wounded by Light’s sword strike, so his movements were very unnatural.
Furthermore, after Dokgo Yeon’s Lost, the bastard’s body became even darker, and only then did Ban Yu-won realize that it was a phenomenon only visible to his eyes.
‘Could this be the ability to recognize sinners from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil?’
When I thought about it that way, it made sense.
Why is he a criminal? It’s because he killed a person.
If he killed his friend in front of Ban Yu-won, then it is only natural that he should be called a criminal.
After roasting the light, it became slightly black, and after roasting the poisonous radish, it became even blacker.

But I’m still not sure what that means.
Is it just recognizing the sinner, or is there something more to it?
-The weakest soldier charges first.
“You’ll know when you see it for yourself.”
Hearing the announcement voice of the Trick Room that had not changed even though two people had been lost, the cynical Ban Yu-won finally took a step forward.
He lost an arm, suffered terrible injuries from his waist to his chest, and even his remaining arm was not intact due to a stab wound.
No matter how much of a monster he is, wouldn’t Ban Yu-won have a chance at this?
“You, you are the weakest one… …!”
Orc Centurion Kuros saw Ban Yu-won step forward and gritted his teeth.
He must have known that he was in a state where he couldn’t even guarantee a win against Ban Yu-won due to Dokgo Yeon’s fatal blow.
But soon the expression on his face became strange, a look of question and joy rather than anger.
“Foolish, ignorant, reckless! But it is a blessing for me!”
“What, you… … !”
Ban Yu-won, who was frowning at the words he didn’t understand, suddenly remembered something and turned around.
There was the figure of Ruchel, who was falling on him.
Every single strand of her hair was dyed black.
“Oh my, the timing is incredible.”
“Kyaaaaang!”
Ruchel charged without giving me time to resist.
I can feel her fingernails digging shallowly into Ban-yu-won’s body.
“Huh!”
“Kyaaaa… … !”
In an instant, Ruchel pinned him to the floor and climbed onto his chest.
He looked down at him with eyes filled with wildness, and then suddenly revealed his sharp fangs.
‘It’s dangerous!’
My heart was pounding like it was going to burst.
I honestly can’t tell right now what kind of danger I’m in, but I’m dangerous!
It was fortunate that the orc centurion was not taking action.
No, maybe it’s because the target Ruchel attacked was not an orc but a half-monkey, so he can’t take action.
‘There’s no time to worry about that now!’
Ban Yu-won pulled out all the positive emotions she had stored in her code core and slammed them into Ruchel’s chest, who was either trying to bite her neck or suck it.
‘Be absorbed! So that you may be neutralized!’
The moment when Ban Yu-won’s will was strongly expressed and his dazzling energy was absorbed into the string.
As if by magic, the concept of emotion was sucked into her arms.
When the flow of strings pounded and pounded the mind, its cutting edge finally invaded a part of the solid concept.
-Quick
Suddenly everything turned red.
“Khak?!”
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Ruchel cried loudly.
She threw aside the half-circle and stood up, running in a straight line.
He realized too late that his neck had been bitten by her.
“You’ve come to hurt your comrades, so what if you kill them all by the fourth year… … Khak?!”
The orc centurions’ jubilant shouts, groans, screams, and howls filled his ears.
But now, I feel like I have no strength left in my body and my head is spinning, so I can’t make normal decisions.
Even in the midst of all this, the thought that I needed to heal my body was still clear, so I took out the ointment I had prepared for such a time.
An ointment created by combining 50 healing concepts.
When I applied it to the wound, I could barely feel the bleeding subsiding, but it was difficult to pull myself up as my body was already exhausted.
‘Elixir… …!’
Peach jam made with the fruits of Eden.
I clearly confirmed the phrase that it not only increases your potential, but also heals the wounds you currently have.
Ban Yu-won, who barely remembered it with his mind that wasn’t working, took it out of his inventory, scooped a little with his fingers, and put it in his mouth.
Strangely enough, at that moment I felt all my senses become clearer.
[You gain 2 Life, 1 Flesh, 2 Mystery, and 1 Charm. Your wounds’ natural healing power becomes greatly accelerated.]
I only took one bite and the results were amazing.
Of course, this wouldn’t be the case every time, but it did show that the elixir’s possibilities were endless.
I still couldn’t figure out why the attractiveness went up though.
More importantly, the bleeding had stopped completely, the wound was healing, and my head was starting to turn properly.
“……under!”
Ban Yu-won, who put the elixir in his inventory and stood up in a hurry, only then realized that he had experienced a shift.
The orc centurion was already dead and gone.
It was a little comforting to know that the concept he had been harboring was naturally left in a corner along with the 16-room reward (treasure chest).
But everything else was the worst.
“Kuaaaaaaah!”
“Kyaaaaah!”
Ruchel runs wild with large and small wounds all over his body.
As Room 17 unfolded, all the monsters that appeared were rushing towards her.
It seemed as if the shape of the half-moon was nowhere to be seen, but that was not the case.
Even while he was losing his mind, Ruchel was protecting him and was prioritizing hunting down monsters that tried to approach him.
“Ruchel!”
“Krrrrrr!”
But that doesn’t mean she can communicate with Ban Yu-won.
Ruchel turned to look at Ban Yu-won when he heard his call, but he didn’t approach him or anything, and instead attacked the monster straight away.
‘shit!’
Ban Yu-won, who observed Ruchel, noticed that her mind was running wild and in disarray.
Touching her heart from the outside was not something that could be done by awkwardly becoming close to her or by keeping her feelings separate.
Because Ban Yu-won provoked her for no reason, everything in Simro became a mess, and Ruchel ran wild without even having time to take care of herself.
‘And yet, he’s trying not to hurt me.’
The bite on his neck was probably the price he paid for not being able to suppress his wildness that suddenly rose up.
Ruchel, who had a feeling that he would inflict more injuries on him if he continued on like that, quickly shook him off and rushed towards the orc centurion―.
The result was the current disaster.
‘It failed.’
It was his fault for not checking in advance.
None of his thoughts were correct.
Was it wrong to rely too easily on one’s own abilities?
Was it arrogance on my part to arbitrarily judge the concept that Ruchel held and try to adjust it?
Ban Yu-won bit his lip and reproached himself.
If there’s one thing that’s certain, it’s that we can’t just leave her like this.
“Ruchel, stop it now! If you keep doing this and move to Room 18, it’ll be the end for you!”
“Krrrrr!”
As expected, he doesn’t listen.
The power of Ruchel, who lost her mind and ran wild without taking care of her own body, was so ferocious that even if four people challenged the monsters in Room 17, they would have a hard time, but all of them were being swept away by her alone.
However, Ruchel’s physical condition was not good as he was carrying the penalty of breaking the rules of the Trick Room, killing the Orc Centurion, and then engaging in a fierce battle against the monsters of Room 17.
In Ban Yu-won’s eyes, it was clear that her body would soon collapse.
But there’s no way to stop her, so what can I do?
‘That beast seems to like to come out strong.’
It was at that time that Dokgo Yeon’s words flashed through my mind.
‘… … Wait a minute, what?’
‘Don’t pretend not to know when you already know. It means don’t compromise half-heartedly when dealing with beasts that don’t understand human language.’
Don’t compromise halfway.
Perhaps it was her way of criticizing her for not being hypocritical towards her, since she was already trying to manipulate Ruchel’s emotions as she pleased?
‘Don’t forget what I said before you entered the tower.’
no.
Dokgo Yeon is not the kind of person to make such accusations.
If she was so terribly pragmatic and cynical, then literally… … yes, it was highly likely that Ban Yu-won would have discussed a more effective way to deal with Ruchel.
‘If, as she says, it is so.’
Ban Yu-won raised his head.
Ruchel was swinging his half-broken claws at the last of the monsters left – the Masked Goblins.
“Ruchel!”
“Crunch?!”
A scream filled with dizziness echoed throughout the room.
Lucelle flinched and froze in place.
The problem is that the monsters still don’t stop.
A solution to both Ruchel and the monster suddenly occurred to me.
He had the material for it… … The string of ‘pressure’ that was completely caught in his hand at the moment when he was about to crush and destroy Dokgoyeon.
“Ruchel, sit down!”
“Caeng!”
The pressure that extended through his hand crushed Ruchel and the entire horde of monsters.
An extremely great power, but slightly insufficient to destroy life.
So it was more appropriate.
“Stay still!”
“Kang, kang… … .”
Ruchel, who had been struggling to resist the pressure, suddenly became calm when he heard his voice.
The emotions that had been running wild inside her body seemed to be strangely slowly subsiding.
Really? Is it really that simple?
Even though I did it myself and still didn’t understand the situation, still.
He did exactly what the situation required of him.
“Come here, Lucelle.”
“Kang!”
He only put pressure on her and ‘ordered’ her.
As if she had been waiting for those words, Ruchel ran towards him and stopped in front of him.
Before I knew it, I could see pink hairs starting to appear here and there among the previously black hair.
It blends in with her clear, beautiful pink eyes.
It was fleeting and simply beautiful, like countless cherry blossom petals fluttering between tree branches on a spring day.
“……half.”
Her senses return.
The runaway from the heart was resolved surprisingly easily.
But the real problem was from now on.
“My, master!”
“No, seriously, look at that. Please. Seriously.”
Ban Yu-won shuddered as he saw the new concept of ‘subordination’ taking root within her body.
‘I’m saying that Ruchel became mine, by me, and for me… … !’
It was an idea that would make President Lincoln, who had issued the Emancipation Proclamation, rise from his grave and go after Gatling.
i first think that he would use more cold-heart method,like slash her to send her back outside of the tower,seem like he isn’t that calculative yet,huh.
