Episode 194

Earth situation (2)

About an hour before Jeong-do killed the wyvern.

The first thing Jeong Do did after leaving the dwarves’ dungeon was to receive the rod reward.

White grade Lirim Bright.

and God-level Hephaestus.

After loading two people, mana and status were compensated, but the most important roulette remained.

The extent was loaded wired from the album. Now, it was as natural an action as breathing.

First of all, two roulette wheels, which are Lirim’s road rewards.

In this case anyway, since it was a reward with no room for intervention, I just waited for the roulette to stop. And soon the roulette stopped.

The rewards indicated by the two roulette wheels were <Eyes of Truth> and <Elegance-lv.2>, respectively.

After thinking about it for a while, I chose <Elegance-lv.2>. I didn’t think that the talent called <Elegance> would be particularly helpful to me, but the skill <Eye of Truth> seemed to be a backwards compatible skill with <Higongrok>.

‘This is the problem.’

It was a slot machine with a new level reward. I caught my breath to some extent.

It had already been decided what to aim for. To a certain extent, I planned to aim for <Shinwi>, the same as last time.

“Goes.”

However, it went wrong from the beginning.

Jeongdo clearly stopped playing roulette with the goal of <status>, but what was actually chosen was <dull skill-lv.3>. Jeongdo frowned.

‘The timing was definitely perfect.’

I didn’t make the mistake of pressing the button without anticipating the inertia like last time. His senses were as sharp as ever and he pressed the button exactly when he thought, ‘This is the time.’

However, the result is <Dunsik>, not <Sinwi>.

… It felt like someone was operating a slot machine. Just like in a real casino. I briefly sighed, gave my status, and tried to play roulette again.

<Roulette retry is only possible for the third and final roulette.>

“this.”

Slot machines did not have such a high degree of freedom. I had no choice but to aim for at least some hidden skills, so I targeted <dull skills>.

And the second roulette was successfully stopped at <Dun Technology>. I pressed it with the same feeling as when I chose the first roulette, but this time I was successful. Jeongdo was convinced that there was something to the talent called <Shinwi>.

And the long-awaited third.

Even with my visual acuity, the roulette wheel spun at a speed that left me relying on luck, and this time, I used the wired <Luck Rental> just like before.

“Ah-oh. Damn it.”

However, this time, even though I used Yoo Seon’s <Luck Rental>, I missed. Just as I was about to invest my points and try roulette again, I discovered something unusual.

“huh?”

A symbol like – was sticking out in the upper right corner of the slot machine. When Jeongdo pressed that part, the slot machine in front of him disappeared in an instant.

“W-what is it?”

Did it really fly?!

I was embarrassed and opened the status window. And then he breathed a sigh of relief. A new category appeared at the bottom of the status window.

– Currently waiting slot machines: 1

Surprisingly, unlike previous roulette machines, slot machines had a keep function. You could proceed with the draw at any time you wanted without having to receive compensation right away. It was only then that I remembered that the symbol looked like a button to minimize an Internet window.

“Then just keep this for now.”

Do-do looked around the room and sighed. There was no Cheok Jun-gyeong.

‘Let’s find it before an accident happens.’

The later you wait, the more likely a major accident will occur. Jeong Do received that intuition and immediately set out to find Cheok Jun-gyeong.

And I encountered a wyvern in the middle of the city.

* * * * * *

“It’s a surprise. “What kind of wyvern is this in the middle of the city?”

Jeongdo muttered while shaking the dust off his body.

I just followed Cheok Jun-gyeong’s traces, but ended up encountering an unexpected monster. Jeongdo began to have ominous thoughts that the culprit behind this incident might be Cheok Jun-kyung.

“Ah, Team Leader Seo Sang-hee… ”

After looking around, I found a familiar face and raised my voice in joy… It didn’t last until the end. This was because Sang-hee and the people around him were looking at him with very strange faces.

I saw quite a few familiar faces, including Seo-yoon and Hae-sik, but I couldn’t pretend to really know them. That’s how strange the gaze of other people was.

Everyone had an expression that seemed to deny reality.

“Why is the atmosphere like this? “The team leader is the representative here, right?”

“… yes. “This is a really rude question, but you are a Triple S user, right?”

“What kind of joke is this all of a sudden? “We haven’t even seen each other for a day or two.”

“Excuse me. But humans tend to deny reality when they see something unbelievable.”

And twice in a row.

She said that, but I couldn’t understand what she was saying. This was because Cheok Jun-gyeong, who had confirmed that Jeong-do had appeared, had already run away.

“What is it?”

Sang-hee gave up on understanding reality after confirming that Cheok Jun-kyung had disappeared once again. It was easier to understand that I was hallucinating due to mental magic.

She turned to the suppression team and declared as if she was tired.

“We confirmed the disappearance of the crack. “As of now, we declare that brake suppression has been successful.”

It was something I had hoped for more than anything else, but no one on the suppression team cheered. Their eyes were still focused on the wyvern’s body and the degree.

“Mr. Jeongdo? If you have time, would it be okay if I invite you to the association? I have a lot to tell you. Especially about the strange monster.”

I could only nod my head as she spoke, looking somewhat exhausted.

* * * * * *

“It’s been a while, everyone. “You’ve become very strong.”

“yes. brother. long time no see.”

“older brother! You’ve become so strong! I thought we tried hard too… Ugh. “After all, you are my brother.”

Arriving at the association’s reception room, Jeong-do and the guild members finally exchanged messages.

The story of how the guild worked so far and how Cheolyun operated the guild.

They proudly talked about how many expeditions they had conducted and how much stronger they had become.

Do-do listened to the two people and nodded and smiled. Although it was a short speech, I could see how hard they had worked so far.

As the guild leader, I wasn’t able to properly take care of the guild members, but I was proud and proud that they still took care of it.

“by the way.”

The degree looked around the two people. There was no one that was supposed to be nearby.

“But what about Tinia? Didn’t Tinia come with you this time?”

“… yes? Tinia?”

“older brother. No matter how much Seo-yoon likes Tinia, she’s not reckless enough to take the dog to the monster.”

Jeong-do made a strange expression at their answers.

what? Is it really true that they haven’t been discovered yet?

Deciding that it was necessary to check, Jeong Do asked for the understanding of Ryu Se-rin and Jin Chang-hu in the living room.

“Excuse me for a moment. Do some errands… ”

“Ah yes. it’s okay. “Please come back quickly.”

Jeong-do stood up from his seat. Then I came out of the living room and headed to the bathroom at the end of the hallway.

‘There is none.’

After confirming that there was no one around, Jeong Do expanded his senses and summoned Tinia using <Calling>.

Faaah!

A short flash of light appeared in the somewhat dark bathroom, and Tinia the size of a dog appeared in front of him. There was fresh refrigerated meat in her mouth. Tinia was startled.

“Well, how much?”

“long time no see? I’d like to ask you what life on Earth is like… Well, it looks like you are very satisfied.”

“… joy.”

Tinia turned her head away, as if she was embarrassed to be called out during the meal. Of course, she didn’t throw away the meat she was eating, and she ate it up in an instant, as if she were hiding her eyes. Her brother laughed and hugged her.

She didn’t protest at all, probably because she was used to being treated like a puppy.

“huh? “Do you think you’ve gained weight?”

“That’s rude! This is just a process of accumulating energy in preparation for an emergency! “In the wild, you never know when and where danger may come.”

Even if I said that with my protruding stomach, it wasn’t convincing… I wondered what the degree was. There was no way that someone as talented as Tinia would lose her fighting power just because she gained a little weight, and more than anything, the fat dog was very cute.

Jeong Do asked while stroking her.

“But I don’t think Seoyoon still knows what you really look like? “You didn’t reveal it?”

“I was planning on revealing it at first, but… ”

Tinia took a deep breath and let out a sigh in response to the question.

“The child named Seo-yoon expressed excessive affection for me while I looked like this. She didn’t necessarily want to break the girl’s dream. Even in this form, I have no problem protecting her.”

“Hmm. Well, if you are. Still, if you stay this far away, it must be difficult to have a near miss.”

“joy. What are you looking at me for? My alter ego permeates Seoyoon’s shadow. “If she’s in crisis, I can transfer her to her right away.”

“oh. “Well, if there is such a thing, I should have put one in my shadow.”

“You can call me whenever you want, but is that really necessary? Shadow transfer is a skill that is physically and mentally demanding. “There is no need to use it inefficiently.”

Tinia looked like a wolf indifferently devouring Earth’s food, but surprisingly, Tinia was thorough.

After finishing the reunion greetings, this time he erased his smile and asked her with a serious expression.

“By any chance, was there anything unusual? Especially when it comes to other universe bastards coming over.”

This was the reason why Jeong Do did not necessarily accompany Tinia on his expedition.

Jeong Do asked her to escort Seo-yoon and gather information about the changes taking place on Earth.

Tinia came from a universe that had experienced more erosion than Earth, and it was thought that she, who had lived for a long time, would be able to respond to sudden changes on Earth.

“It’s a special matter. First of all, the most unusual thing is that this universe called ‘Earth’ has an abnormally fast rate of erosion.”

“Fast? how much?”

“At least twice the size of the universe I have ever experienced. No, maybe three times more. “It’s never natural.”

She has lived for a long time to be revered as a forest god in her world. She could be said to be the living history of the universe itself, and her judgment was trustworthy enough.

“What I mean is that it’s not natural… “Someone is artificially accelerating erosion.”

“It’s reasonable to think so, but… “Honestly, I can’t imagine.”

“And one more special thing.”

“Is there anything else?”

“Yes, this is what I felt in the shadows when Seoyoon recently went on an expedition to the dungeon. “The number of strange people in the dungeon has increased.”

“Weirds? “Are you talking about monsters?”

“It’s a monster. To me, they and humans are similar, but… Yes, if I may borrow your expression, it is a monster. A monster in a recently created dungeon began to emit a suspicious smell. “Do you remember the last time you called me using the <Calling> skill inside the dungeon?”

At Tinia’s question, Jeongdo recalled his memory and quickly nodded.

Obviously, it was when I went on an expedition to an SSS-class dungeon in Japan at the request of Princess Kako. There, he met the commander of the 7th Demon Corps and was able to defeat the commander by summoning Tinia and Red Toma.

“Yes, I met a demon. no way? Did you meet a demon in a dungeon? “Have they invaded again?”

“No, it wasn’t a demon. “They were like the gnoll chieftains that we often see in our world.”

It was one of the monsters that frequently appeared in dungeons. In other words, the appearance of the Gnoll Chieftain in the dungeon was not unusual at all.

However, at her next words, Jeong-do could not help but narrow his eyebrows.

“There was a faint scent of demon mixed in among their scent. I erased it, but you can’t fool my nose. be careful. degree. “The demon world has not given up on Earth yet.”
