Chapter 44 Table of contents

“Chi. are you a hero It is class A. Retreat like this.”

 

“How did you know?”

 

They took the scroll out of their arms and tore it up.

 

A scroll that emits a bright light.

 

Their bodies disappeared like illusions.

 

‘Laura. Why didn’t you use Dispel? .’

 

We were all shocked by the sudden situation.

 

“What, what?”

 

“What is that hole and why are these people all of a sudden?”

 

“Nyaah!”

 

Only Laura beat me carefreely.

 

[What do you do when you dispel? There are many eyes to see.]

 

For a brief moment, I just thought of grabbing and kicking, so I didn’t even think about it.

 

Come to think of it, I was with other people right now.

 

If caught, the situation has to be handed over to the police or a hero.

 

In order to get information, I would have to resort to torture, but in front of them, it was a bit like that.

 

Laura added in a slightly weak voice.

 

[and… It would have been impossible anyway. Previously, it was a proper wizard’s scroll.]

 

‘Why is that? Wasn’t it possible to dispel all the activation systems?’

 

[That’s what I was talking about on the basis of your earthly people who eat raw power, and in my world, it is normal that dispels are impossible even if you are level A. It’s not that all-around technology in the first place.]

 

In other words, Dispel is for massacre of civilians, so it doesn’t work against high-level opponents.

 

I decided that I should be more careful with the ‘Dark Knight’ activities.

 

According to Laura’s words, dispel might not work for S-class heroes.

 

At that time, I have to defeat the opponent with my pure power.

 

“You didn’t just see me, did you? The people in red disappeared before my eyes… .”

 

Park Ha-yeon looked back at us with a white expression on her face, as if she had seen a ghost.

 

“I saw it too.”

 

Lee Sang-hyun was terrified and trembled.

 

The two started discussing what it was before, with serious expressions on their faces.

 

I was concerned about other parts.

 

‘What did those guys, Class A, do earlier? Did you mean to look at me?’

 

Strictly speaking, due to luck, the average was a little low, but it was equivalent to an A-class ability.

 

Laura answered.

 

[If you are a properly trained wizard, you can roughly estimate the skill of your opponent. It’s also because you didn’t hide it properly.]

 

so did you know

 

Come to think of it, the red robes they were wearing looked familiar.

 

‘It must have been the Gospel of Salvation.’

 

Salvation Gospel.

 

Originally, it was a pseudo-religion that worshiped the Second Coming Jesus.

 

Their Second Coming Jesus was actually a devil who deceived people, and what the believers were doing was actually the Advent ceremony of the Demon King as they realized the ‘Kingdom of God’ on this earth.

 

‘Was the Gospel of Salvation behind this gate incident?’

 

Never had he come here at such an early point in the game.

 

So I didn’t know either.

 

“But isn’t this a gate?”

 

Lee Sang-hyun was the first to find out if he was still in the 3rd year.

 

“gate?”

 

“Meow.”

 

I took the ‘Magic Meter’ out of my bag.

 

An object used to determine the gate grade.

 

It looks like a radiation meter.

 

“It’s a magic meter. Did you bring anything like that?”

 

I brought it with me in case the kids were afraid of going into the dungeon.

 

“Let’s see.”

 

I put the meter near the gate.

 

The instrument panel began to move and the number gradually increased.

 

1171 —

 

1462 —

 

2147 —

 

2235 —

 

2236 D

 

“It’s a D-class dungeon.”

 

“The force is like an A-grade dungeon, but it’s lower than I thought.”

 

Lee Sang-hyun breathed a sigh of relief.

 

I was relieved too.

 

I saw the Gospel of Salvation wizards earlier, so I wondered if they were working on something.

 

Perhaps the creation of that gate itself was a masterpiece.

 

Now it is your turn to fulfill the hidden purpose of this trip.

 

I spoke curiously.

 

“Would you like to go in?”

 

“What?”

 

“Nyaat.”

 

Everyone trembled and was surprised.

 

I cut down the dungeon to reassure everyone.

 

“If it’s a D-class dungeon, our current strength is enough. Some people may not know, but I was re-measured as a B grade.”

 

“Five. Since you’re a B-class, when did you train like that?”

 

Park Ha-yeon was surprised.

 

I was slightly pricked in my conscience, but I lied casually.

 

“yes. Well, I did it whenever I had free time.”

 

“Is going out late at night to go to practice?”

 

“right. I can’t tell you the details, but anyway.”

 

“Ugh.”

 

Park Ha-yeon nodded her head with a lukewarm expression.

 

“Let’s all come together. What should I do. I don’t think it’s bad to do this camping in a D-class dungeon.”

 

“Is this enough for me to try?”

 

Ha Yeon Park gave me strength.

 

Indeed, she was a character who did not avoid danger, just like in the original.

 

However, Lee Sang-hyun and Lee Shi-ah still looked long and fuzzy.

 

“Well, is it okay? We are still students… . Yes, we do, but what about your cousin?”

 

I laughed out loud.

 

Are you worried about Laura?

 

‘but.’

 

On the surface, he’s just a small child, so it’s understandable.

 

This part was done by herself.

 

“Don’t worry. There is only Shinnoda who is stronger than me here.”

 

“What? haha. Looks like he doesn’t know what yet. All the older brothers and sisters here are academy students.”

 

Laura lit fire from her fingers.

 

The fire soon took the form of a sphere larger than a human head.

 

“Even like this?”

 

“I’m going to make some fire from my hands… .”

 

A fireball has evolved into a flame tornado that seems to devour mountains.

 

A scorching heat engulfed the surroundings.

 

“Even like this?”

 

“mom… … .”

 

Lee Sang-hyun opened his mouth.

 

Park Ha-yeon said with a worried face.

 

“But the fire… Am I not?”

 

“Don’t worry.”

 

The flame tornado disappears.

 

The flames of the mountains returned to her fingers as if turning back time.

 

Everyone just looked at the scene with hazy faces.

 

“You are so wonderful.”

 

I looked at everyone’s faces and asked.

 

“how about it. Is it worth going with this? We also have camping gear. Even if it takes a while, you can sleep there. As everyone knows, if you clear one of these dungeons properly, you can greatly increase your stats, right?”

 

Everyone’s eyes twinkled at the words of raising their abilities.

 

For the Awoken, it was like a dream.

 

In fact, even if you don’t know anything about this dungeon, you can’t lose with this level of power.

 

I even know all the hidden gimmicks.

 

Our party eventually agreed to enter the dungeon.

 

There was a possibility that the red robe monster who disappeared earlier could be doing something, but when I strongly insisted on entering, the atmosphere quickly shifted to entering.

 

Because they were all awakened, they basically had less sense of crisis than ordinary people, and it was not difficult to persuade them as they stimulated the spirit of a teenager.

 

Lee Sang-hyun had an attitude to obey my decision somehow, and Lee Shi-ah was still scared, but it felt like everyone was going.

 

“good. I’ll take the lead, follow me.”

 

I entered the gate.

 

***

 

It has been a week since the Dark Knight stopped hunting.

 

Now everyone noticed that he had stopped working.

 

In the news, they talked about it without taking a day off.

 

<Dark Knight Dive! Association 曰 “The time has come to end the hero game. well thought out.”>

 

<When the Dark Knight stops working, ability instructors increase by 20%… Is it really a coincidence?>

 

<The end of private sanctions… Expert, “It has a positive effect in the long run”>

 

<The Dark Knight fan cafe ‘The Knights’ revealed that the Dark Knight’s suspension was due to reckless criticism on the Internet… >

 

A special program was aired on TV.

 

A program with experts such as criminal psychologists and ex-heroes on the panel.

 

The anchor who conducts the broadcast brought out today’s topic.

 

“The Dark Knight stopped activities for the fortress and went into hiding. What reason do you see?”

 

Former B-class hero Oh Jun-cheol answered with a smile on his lips.

 

“It must have been hidden after the association’s relentless pursuit. I’ve quit now, so I don’t know what’s going on inside, but I’ve probably worked my way around. Even though the association looks soft and soft, it is a scary place.”

 

“Aha. okay. Have you ever seen such a case in the past? ?”

 

“There is a confidentiality clause, so I can’t tell you until that point.”

 

The anchor gave the voice to criminal psychologist Kim Moon-cheol.

 

Kim Moon-cheol began to say what he had analyzed.

 

“I see it a little differently. Rather than giving a significant blow to the association, I think they must have been greatly disappointed by the criticism from people when the fake Dark Knight, ‘Darkness Jumper’ appeared.”

 

“ah… Then what the fan cafe claims is true. Are you saying this?”

 

“I think the context is the same. What he does is private sanctions that threaten the rule of law, but he must have a sense of mission or belief in realizing justice. However, seeing the reckless criticism on the Internet, I felt a lot. Although the accusations were caused by fakes, in the end the attack was directed against the Dark Knight.”

 

“Aha. okay.”

 

He took a breath and said.

 

“He may have thought that ‘The Dark Knight’ was too much for Koreans. As long as he has stopped working like this, I think his psychological state is very unstable. Now he is a walking bomb. The moment someone pulls the fuse, the worst A-class villain is born. Even now, it is classified as a villain… .”

 

Kim Mun-cheol continued to list his concerns.
