I closed my eyes and immersed myself in the dungeon by raising my sinful concentration. Now that I've had a crazy experience in Tanzania, I'm used to it.

so time passed

- Top owner. Synchronization completed successfully.

'Good work.'

Currently, this dungeon is in a 'sleep state' with most of its functions stopped. I drained mana from my palm to activate some of the dungeon features that were turned off.

What I want is a record of the dungeon gate.

By concentrating on reading the memories, I was able to quickly catch the data I wanted. Traces of 98 gates opened across Asia were identified.

'… … But which of these places did the president of the association come in?'

Naturally, the records of the dungeon were not left in Korea, Russia, or anything like that. There were only coordinates made up of numbers.

"Ah. Calculate the mana coordinates of the 'Daejeon Gate' that the president of the association passed."

- Check that record. Start calculating mana coordinates.

EA calculated the coordinates and informed them, and I checked it against the records left in the dungeon.

And I found a trace of a gate that had been opened at a very close location that almost coincided with it.

"Okay! Open the gate to over there."

-Okay. Activate the dungeon gate function.

When I lifted my hand off the floor and stood up, the dungeon gate opened by EA was revealed.

I walked into it without hesitation.

* * *

The surroundings changed again. It was a barren field without anything special, and it smelled bad.

'The smell of rotting corpses.'

A corpse was left in the field. I approached the body and looked through the clothes. ID came out.

Choo Young-hoon, a certified level 4 hunter belonging to the Black Guard.

The Black Guard is the guild that Hongyul and NIX went into the missing dungeon.

It seems to have come right.

"But why is this person dead here?"

- Let's analyze the cause of death.

"Is that even possible?"

… … how capable are you

Ea spread out several magic circles near the corpse and began to analyze it.

-Check the necrotic state of the skin. Water swelling and cellular tissue are thoroughly destroyed. The cause of death is judged as a verb.

"It's a verb..."

I looked around once.

"You mean here?"

Although the wind is blowing, the temperature is not high enough to freeze to death.

It's not even an environment where Binggye monsters can appear. If so, there is only one thing that can be inferred.

"Frost."

The feeling came right away.

"This man was killed by silencing."

- This is a reasonable guess.

"Let's go on."

There were traces of people everywhere, so there was no need to do tricky clue time.

At the end of following all these trails.

"……Wow."

There was a huge cave that had collapsed.

- There seems to be a big fight here.

The president of the association must have entered this cave to hunt the boss monster of the dungeon, and he must have been attacked by hidden hunters.

Meanwhile, Frost knocked down the cave and locked Hongyul.

Roughly, such a scenario is pictured in my mind.

"Check your biological response."

-Okay.

While EA was using the detection magic, I walked over the collapsed cave, looking for clues. Traces of explosives are visible everywhere.

'To destroy a cave this large, a normal bomb wouldn't work... … Huh?'

A shell of explosives was found in the remains of the cave.

After shaking off the sand, I found that the word 'PHC' was written on the surface of the explosive.

I let out a sigh of exasperation.

"Now I get a sense of what happened."

Is this all a coincidence? No, I don't think so.

My guess is that Baek Ik, Wayne Jones, is still alive. And he joined hands with Frost to retaliate against me.

If you think that way, all the riddles that have been questioned for so long will be solved. Frost's strange movements are also understandable.

Frost was obsessively obsessed with my Russian dungeon, which had a survival rate of less than 1%.

Even though just letting me go into the dungeon was the best way to get rid of me.

In particular, such a deliberate move to block me with a departure ban and dispatch an executive to Russia in advance is impossible unless you know me well.

it was easy It's good to destroy all of the demons' research bases, but since then, he hasn't paid much attention to Wayne's life or death.

In the end, the enemy who had a grudge against me was attached to another enemy, and the situation reached this point.

When you go out, there are many things to do.

- Top owner.

"Yeah. Did you find something?"

- There is no biological reaction here. Everyone in the cave died.

“……”

My heart pounded for a moment, but I quickly regained my composure.

He couldn't have died just at this level.

"Let's keep looking at the other traces."

-Yeah. top owner.

* * *

I went around the cave looking for clues about the president of the association, but couldn't find anything.

Thinking that there would be no end to searching one by one like this, I rode the gate again and returned to the core of the dungeon.

- Top owner. So far, I haven't eaten anything.

"I'll look for a little bit more."

- There is no confirmation that she is alive.

"It must be alive."

What would I do if I was Hongyul?

If he hadn't thought of taking his own life, he would have gone out of his way to find another gate. There may have been quite a bit of distance, so we need to change the search method.

"I'll unite one more time."

-… … top owner.

"At times like this, you know that I won't break even if I die stubbornly, right?"

I said with a smirk. Her small sigh was heard.

-Follow the orders of the owner.

Dungeon synchronization started. Once again the mind expands and the senses are maximized.

'I thought I'd make it by myself somehow.'

Locked in the tower, I thought I could play around the world as I wanted.

But that was an illusion. As long as Frost sits in the chair of the association, we have no freedom.

she needs

her power. her influence. We need the achievements she has built up.

'Come on, focus.'

As I did in Tanzania, I once again abandoned myself.

The senses become distant and a strong unity is maintained in the dungeon. Everything in the dungeon feels like my body.

Next, I took the coordinates of the crystal cave as a reference and contacted all the monsters in the area.

I can feel the emotions of the monsters. Countless emotions such as hunger, anger, and emptiness are shared with me.

I desperately persevered in this state. how much time has passed Suddenly, intense pain strikes.

'… … Whoops!'

someone killed me

To be precise, the monster connected to me lost its life, and the pain was transmitted as it was. No matter how many times he suffered death, he never got used to it.

After that, the connection with the monsters is cut off one by one. It's an added bonus that it's insanely painful every now and then.

It's not like being stabbed to death by a knife. Just blow your head and die instantly.

I laughed as I cried out in pain.

found.

[Unity attribute has reached Lv.5.]

Now, all connections with the dungeon have been boiled and I have returned to 'me' again.

- Top lord!

Following Ea's desperate cry.

As I slowly returned to my senses, I opened my eyes and got up.

"I'm back. Air."

I checked my body.

There was still a recoil of unity left, so I felt nauseous, but I could endure this much.

I put my hands on the floor again.

-… … Only then will the mind, not the body, go first. Why are you so desperate?

"I don't want to regret it again."

I said as I spilled mana into the dungeon.

“After witnessing the destruction of the world, it made me think that I should do my best in everything, at least while I was alive.

Whoa ah ah ah ah!

I, no, opened the dungeon gate to the location where the monsters died.

"Come on, let's go see the president of the association."

* * *

went through the gate. This time, there was a desolate field spread out.

I could see traces of dried blood on the floor, so I slowly walked along the trail.

Possibly a survivor other than her killed the monster Of course there is. But strangely, I was filled with strange convictions.

Even in the dungeon, night came. The temperature goes down and a cold wind blows. I closed my collar and continued walking.

tap. tap.

A bright light can be seen under the forest. The sound of a bonfire burning tickles my ears.

walked there The flesh of the monster stuck in the branch dripped with oil and was burning in the bonfire. and next to it.

I see a woman perched on a rock.

Her vivid red hair, a suit jacket that casually rests on her shoulder, and the countless signs of battle and forged muscles all over her body catch her eye step by step.

Not a lot of time has passed.

A person is bound to fall apart in a sense of utter loneliness and despair. It may not have been the woman I knew.

But there was nothing disturbing about her meditating with her eyes closed in front of her bonfire.

"President of the Association."

I bowed my head.

"I'm here to pick you up."

Her eyes opened slowly. Mysterious golden eyes stare at me quietly.

“……”

“……”

As the silence grew longer, the corners of her lips drew soft arcs.

"Are you here?"

"Yeah."

We met casually, as usual.

The president of the association tapped the seat next to him with his palm.

“…you are all locals.”

As I sat down next to her and told her jokes, she grinned.

"That's right. Monster meat is slowly becoming edible. Would you like to try it?"

She held out the meat she had stuck on her twig. Although it is said to be the flesh of a monster, it looked better than I expected when it was cooked with fire.

I also accepted it because I was quite hungry.

And a light bite.

"Wow!"

From the moment she chews, fades in her mouth, slurp water, not juicy, pours out.

I spit out the meat I had been chewing on the ground.

"Hey, what? It's a shame!"

"...even if I starve to death, I can't eat this."

She laughed out loud and took a large bite of the meat in her hand.

Whoops! Whoops!

I really want to know how to eat that. Seeing her chewing on her meat gave her a sense of madness, and it was a little frightening for her to watch her.

"When you get angry, complex thoughts disappear and your brain becomes clear."

She said.

"Who were you angry with?"

"You bastards who made me eat this."

As she chewed her meat aloud, she threw an empty branch behind her back.

"Whoa."

She stretched both her hands behind her back, leaned against the rock and leaned her body.

"Why are you here?"

It's not about 'how', it's about 'why'... … .

I slowly opened my mouth as I looked at the burning bonfire.

"Rabbit is king in a den where there is no tiger. The only hunter who succeeds the president of the association is you or something. How do you see that with your eyes open?"

“……”

She saw the bonfire burning silently. I continued speaking.

“After the change of government, Hong Yeon is in Antarctica, and Im Nam-jin is in Myanmar. I also made an appointment with Hong Yeon.

“……”

"And lastly."(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

I looked at her and smiled softly.

"I missed you. President of the Association."

There was a crack in her expressionless expression for the first time.

She remained silent for a while, as if she was speechless, and then she let out a sigh of unknown meaning.

"...sick."

With a small mumble, she leaned over her body.

"Still, you're still my baby."

she stretched out her arm Then she gently wiped my face.

My chin, lips, and nose. As if to confirm her reality with those slender fingers, as if it was unbelievable to touch, she swiped again and again.

Then suddenly I realized.

that she was suffering from fantasies.

She was terrified, crushed by solitude.

Had I already appeared in her imagination? Are you still doubting if I'm a fantasy or real?

"It's really me."

I said with a smile and grabbed her hand.

Then he touched me like I was dealing with a precious thing and confirmed my true identity.

"I'm not going anywhere, so you don't have to be so afraid."

“……”

Her expression becomes indescribable. Expressionlessness melts away, and emotions are revealed.

It's the first face I've ever seen.

But just before it completely melts, she hugs me tightly.

And I bury my face in my chest to hide the exposed expression.

I just stiffened.

"Tongue, President of the Association."

"Wait a minute."

Her voice trembled.

"I'll be here for a second."

I relaxed my body. No pain as usual. Her arms were so warm.

The warmth of her skin radiates from her touching skin. feel the breath In addition, it seems to convey the terrible loneliness that she experienced here.

Yeah, she pretends to be strong, but she was like us too.

So she held me for a long time.

"sorry."

After a while she moved away from me and straightened up. The shaky figure disappeared from place to place, and he returned to the very hero of humanity, full of his usual courage and confidence.

"Are we going to get revenge now? To that bastard Frost."

Her smile, which raised the corners of her lips, was like a playful boy.

"Is there any way back?"

"Of course. We've got it all ready."

I picked up the earthy monster meat that I had dropped while not eating. He even took a big bite.

disgusting Both taste and smell are the worst.

But now it's not enough to spit.

"Let's go. To Korea."

"Because he's also my baby."

We high-fived vigorously and laughed out loud.

Now I will turn everything back.
