[Title: Descending.]
[Author: Seon Yu-jin]
[Whew, how long has it been since we got here? How many years are left until the cataclysm, you guys?]
[Comments (3)]
[Huh? There are only two years left?]
[Wow, it’s been a year… … .]
[0| Who is this person?]
“???Are you coming to your senses?”
Eugene, who was kneeling in an alley far from the casino on the outskirts of the 30th floor, looked down and asked.
Was it a dream or reality? My eyes, wide open, blinked blankly.
“???ah.”
Her face turned slightly red when she realized that it was real.
” sorry.”
The girl got up from her knees in a hurry and tried to straighten her messy hair, but ended up putting her hood over her head.
“That’s because I… lost consciousness.”
Eugene let out a sigh of relief at the sight of her embarrassed face and asked while rubbing her thigh.
“Where is it uncomfortable?”
“No.” Even if there was something uncomfortable, I couldn’t say anything even if I died.
“So, the former gambler… …
Serin, who was about to ask about the results of not coming out of the room for a long time, opened her eyes wide.
“uh?”
“why?”
“There’s blood in your mouth…
“Huh? Ah.”
Serin’s fingers trembled as she confirmed that the blood flowing from Eugene’s mouth was black.
“Oh, is it by any chance a vicious person?” Eugene wiped the black liquid running down his chin and answered as if it was nothing.
“uh.”
“Are you okay?”
“ Hehehe……
Eugene, who had been laughing like Eternal at Serin’s question, answered a beat late.
“No, actually I’m not okay. It hurts.”
It was as I answered.
The pain of venom was difficult to endure even for those with the poison swallowing trait, which is a transcendent level of poison resistance.
There was no need to add anything since he vomited blood once while moving while carrying Serin on his back.
“I guess you didn’t wipe it all off when you threw up earlier… Hey, I didn’t want you to see how dirty it was.”
Eugene, who had been rubbing his chin with his sleeve, shrugged his shoulders.
“It’s a little bit uncomfortable, but it’s okay?”
He was treating the evil that had made Jang Min jump around like a madman as a seasonal cold.
“I’m telling you this just in case… You better not cling too much to me. You might get addicted again.”
“yes?”
Serin asked blankly at the thought that she might become addicted again.
“I made him drink Rasil’s sap because he was addicted.”
“then??????
“I forced you to swallow it, but if I didn’t, you would have died, so don’t say anything.”
Eugene, who had an awkward expression, stared at the girl’s lips, but Serin didn’t seem to notice Eugene’s gaze.
“Why, why aren’t you eating it?”
To be exact… it seemed like he couldn’t hear anything else because he was still addicted.
“I can endure it. I’m enduring it while trying to remember my original intention.”
As Eugene continued speaking, black saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth.
Is it true that evil is evil? Even Eugene couldn’t help but feel his lips tremble and the saliva dripping down.
“Ah, ssup… …
Eugene, wiping his lips with his sleeve again, added the reason why he was still addicted.
“Racil is resting. He needs to sleep a little more to get the fluid out.”
They built a roof to keep the casino roof from collapsing, and they pumped sap to purify one person’s venom… It was a man who wouldn’t wake up for at least a day.
“that??????
Serin bit her lower lip at the sight of Eugene enduring the evil because of her.
” sorry.”
“No need to apologize. This was normal when I was on the 98th floor.”
“What about the deer?”
Serin, who was thinking of Eternal, the cause of the evil, noticed that the deer was not there and asked.
“I sent it up.”
“The 97th floor?”
“uh.”
Eugene nodded and added the reason why he sent the deer and this terminal up.
“I had something to ask the Master, and the commotion at the casino was quite a bit of a hassle.”
Serin, who confirmed that the deer was facing upwards, staggered up from her seat. Her abdomen was throbbing, as if the area where she had been kicked by Jang Min earlier had not yet recovered.

“???Those people?”
“They’re all gone. Except for a few.”
As the answer to the question came out immediately, Serin held her breath.
“The leader is still alive. Was it Jangmin? His subordinates were acting up to protect him… If you really want to make excuses, you could say he left you a share?”
Serin nodded.
“That’s good.”
Serin, whose eyes had been narrowed in revenge, looked back at Eugene, who was still sitting, with a worried expression on her face.
“Are you okay?”
“hmm?”
It was because the condition didn’t look very good.
“I told you it’s not okay.”
His expression was not good as she asked… but it wasn’t because he was actually feeling unwell, it was because he had a complicated-looking homework assignment. “I’m sorry. I should have been more helpful as a guide… …
“hmm?”
” sorry……
As Seorin kept apologizing with a sour look on her face, Eugene realized that she was mistaken again and opened his mouth with an uncomfortable expression.
“I couldn’t change my job.”
“…yes?”
“I couldn’t become a gambler.”
Serin blinked at Eugene’s words that she couldn’t change jobs, and then stammered, “Uh, you couldn’t? Why?” “Why? The moment I was about to change jobs, the window disappeared. That’s why I couldn’t. I think it was because of the commotion… I guess I’m just unlucky.”
Serin, who noticed why his expression was crumpled, averted her gaze without realizing it.
“That’s… not because of me… right?”
Strictly speaking, it wasn’t because of Serin.
Although she was the one who recommended the hidden class called Gambler, the reason Black Rose came to the casino was because of the trait Eraser.
“Yeah, well… I admit it.”
Eugene, who had been sitting, also got up from his seat, groaning.
My stomach was churning because of the viciousness, but I couldn’t vomit it out loud in front of the girl, so I held it in.
‘It reminds me of the 17th floor.’
Eugene, who had been chuckling as he recalled the recent past, got to the point.
“Do you know what ‘acts lops’ is?”
“yes?”
Serin tilted her head at the words Eugene asked.
“Are you talking about a word?”
“No, that’s not it… …
Eugene let out a sigh and began to think about where to start explaining.
“How should I say this?”
After thinking about what to say for about ten seconds, he started talking about how he had swung the scythe.
“??? So, right now, in front of my eyes, there’s a black window with white letters that say ‘Challenge in progress.’”
Serin, who was touched by Eugene’s story
I thought over what was explained to me.
[acts lops]
[???]
[Currently challenging.]
What bothered me more than the fact that there were three rows of windows was that their color wasn’t the usual ‘blue’.
“Well? I don’t see anything like that, so… if I’m challenging it, is it like a game quest?”
Although Serin made a careful guess, it was only a guess.
“There is no clue.”
“yes.”
Eugene added.
[Currently challenging.]
At the bottom of the black window, there was only the phrase “challenge in progress” displayed, and there were no other clues written.
” ha??????
A sigh escaped me without me realizing it.
“Maybe the hint was given by the answerer.”
“Then I have to go back to the ant hole? Damn it, when did I get down there and come back?”
“Going back down… I’m against it. If you think about the reaction from three months ago, the same situation could happen again. And… …
Serin, who was watching Eugene’s expression, continued speaking carefully.
“The practice floor has a different flow of time than here. While you’re going down and back this time… the tower might end.”
Breaking up with him again was something she absolutely did not want to do, but she did not dare say it out loud.
“That’s right.”
Eugene scratched the back of his head with a troubled expression.
“What’s the point of overthinking it? If you try the same thing again, something will come out.” “The same thing?”
When Serin looked at him with a ‘no way’ expression, the boy shrugged his shoulders and went to Invento.
Lee took out Seon Yu-jin’s scythe from inside. “Okay. One more time.”
A scythe appeared, splitting the space and summoning the Answerer.
“Well, if I swing it one more time, I might find another clue… …
She disagreed with this opinion.
“I’m a bit… against that too.”
“why?”
Serin rolled her eyes and looked at the scythe Eugene was holding.
“Mr. Philip customized it for me. I feel like he’s handling it too roughly.”
What Serin was worried about was the durability of the scythe Eugene was holding.
“You swung it hard enough to cut through space. It may look fine on the outside, but if you swung it multiple times, it’s clear… …
It was clear that either the blade would break, or the handle would shatter… one of two endings was near.
“If you’re going to wield it, I wish you’d wield it a little more practically.”
Eugene, who realized what Serin was trying to say, smiled and asked.
“44th floor?”
“yes.”
It was the destination of the two people who were trying to check out the three hidden classes and head towards them.
“good.”
Eugene nodded and immediately opened his inventory.
[40th floor return scroll]
Thanks to the sensible guide’s preparation, there was no need to go up each floor.
“Shall we go right away?”
“yes.”
Two people tore the scroll at the same time
[Current increase: 48]
The ‘old lady in the nun’s habit’, who had been staring at the stairs leading down, turned her head and muttered.
“Wouldn’t it be better for us to go down? If I’m here, it’ll be a little easier to conquer the 44th floor… …
“I repeat, we don’t need to worry about the below.”
“There’s not much time left until the cataclysm. Right now, it’s more important to check the drug guys waiting above rather than below.”
The expression on the woman’s face as she sighed at the sound of her colleagues’ voices looked unpleasant.
“Saint… …
The ‘Saint’ answered.
“… yes.”
“Everything is for a cause.”
