. . .
thud!
The giant body lay down on the ground along with death, and the life response was cut off.
No one in the party couldn’t confirm whether or not the other person was responding to life, but none of them relaxed.
because they already knew
Wood deok!
“Come out!”
“I checked!”
The crustacean-like monster’s tail wriggled greatly, and something jumped out and quickly tried to escape into the cave, and Lloyd reached out at the same time.
Kwadeuk!
Ayeek!
The dagger that extended from Lloyd’s hand cut through the air like a comb, and a terrible scream pierced the body of something rushing into the cave.
“Tsk.”
Everyone frowned at the visceral sense of rejection, and even more so after confirming it.
Dozens of tentacles stretched out in an irregular shape in an irregular shape that looks like a child made of clay.
A small mouth full of fang-like teeth was constantly screaming, and just the sight of it filled me with disgust.
“It is disgusting.”
Right.
With a twisted voice, Lucas snapped his fingers, and at that moment, the creature pierced by the dagger caught a magical fire and began to burn.
Kyeee
Even though their whole bodies were on fire, they did not stop screaming, and it seemed that the sound that stimulated their souls would make them turn away at any moment, but the party confirmed the end with calm eyes.
Perseok.
After confirming the monster that had completely turned to ashes, Lucas opened his mouth with a frown.
“The resistance has become stronger. What happened?”
Since they chose to run away through the main body, the composition of the organization should have been weak, but the resistance to magic was stronger than the main body.
“…Come to think of it, it felt like it was getting tougher and tougher.”
Igor continued, looking at his razor-like claws.
The toenails with the strange light were as sharp as anything in the world, and it was like that in reality, but the longer you deal with the monster, the more your claws get dull.
“In my opinion.”
Fu Chemistry!
After throwing an incendiary grenade at the corpse that had fallen on the floor and incinerating it, John spoke calmly.
“Isn’t it that resistance to abilities increases in real time?”
“···Nonsense.”
Lucas made a serious expression at Igor’s muttering.
“···no. Then it explains why they split up and run away like that. It could be a way to revive by taking nutrients again, but what if it’s to convey information to the entity?”
“…Even if you miss one, you have to deal with objects that have resistance to your ability.”
Lloyd’s hard-faced words made everyone turn pale.
‘Now I noticed.’
They drew their conclusions based on their experience, so there can be no doubt that John would have known the information ahead of time.
All John did was to give direction.
“Serious.”
Everyone turned their attention to the weight of John’s voice.
Fighting.
The corpse of the monster that had lost its vitality was burned quite well, and the shadows on John’s face as he watched it turn into ashes created a heavy atmosphere just by looking at it.
“If you deal with these guys without knowing the information, you will miss them. If these guys are few in number, we can do anything, but…”
“I don’t see it.”
Lloyd’s face contorted as he realized what John was trying to say.
“I don’t think this is something we can solve on our own.”
A weak voice escaped Igor’s mouth, but no one pointed it out.
It’s fortunate that I discovered it in the early stages. I don’t want to imagine what kind of monsters would have appeared if time had passed and the resistance to my ability continued to rise.
“Can’t communicate yet?”
Lloyd frowned at John’s question.
“I think this cave is the problem. Radio waves do not reach.”
“The same goes for magic.”
At Lucas’ words, John nodded and turned his gaze to the group.
“Lucas, Lloyd.”
Their eyes turned to John.
“You two had better go out and bring in reinforcements. We just don’t have enough hands.”
Perhaps it could be a threat to the whole of Luna, so it was necessary to move the inspection team and the defense forces.
Due to the nature of the two groups, it was almost impossible to move unless there was a clear reporter, and it was correct to immediately retreat and report the situation when thinking about the situation.
Looking at the two nodding with serious expressions, Igor’s eyes met.
“You go out and protect Lina. I tried my hand, but I’m a little uneasy.”
“What do you plan to do?”
At Igor’s words, John gazed beyond the dark cave.
“I keep rushing in. At least we’ll have to do some reconnaissance.”
At John’s words, the group’s faces hardened.
“Would it be dangerous?”
No one ignored John’s ability, but what they encountered was an unknown enemy.
All the monsters I’ve met so far haven’t been easy going, and I don’t know if everyone in the party is there, but if John alone, it was obvious that he would struggle.
“This is always the case.”
Lloyd made a look of admiration at John’s bitter smile, and Lucas tried to say something, but John spoke faster.
“The one who has to complete the request is the solver. It is not difficult to lose one body. Don’t worry about me.”
Lucas, who had been staring at John’s determined face, turned around.
“I will try to come back as soon as possible.”
“I’m requesting an emergency response unit.”
Lloyd turned around with a hard face, and finally Igor turned around as well.
“Lina, you don’t have to worry.”
“I believe.”
With John’s words, Lucas, Lloyd, and Igor quickly fled and disappeared to the other side of the cave, leaving John alone in the dark cave.
How long have you been standing alone like that?
“Did you go?”
A strange light flashed in John’s eyes, and John raised his hand and opened and closed his fist before placing his hand against the cave wall.
Perseok.
The wall, which was coated with the mutant’s slime and had a strong resistance to the ability, seemed to wriggle, but soon turned to dust and collapsed.
Confirming that, John looked at the wall and at his hand, and a certainty rose in John’s mind.
“I can’t see the skill window or stats, but it seems to be working.”
growth of this ability.
It was a subtle difference, but before entering the cave and after going through several battles, John’s ability had grown to the point where he could see a clear difference.
“I said experience.”
The secrets of growth that players have.
By going through battles and taking actions that affect Luna, she accumulates experience points and grows her abilities endlessly.
Adjusting the physical ability and adjusting the direction of the ability with such accumulated experience is the driving force for the player to develop at a frightening speed.
If John had mastered witchcraft, he would have judged it as an act of accumulating karma, but he did not know that.
I didn’t even need to know.
The important thing is that the more you fight, the stronger John’s capabilities will be.
That was enough, and it was the moment when the cause of Zone’s development speed, which surprised even the players, was revealed.
‘Then it’s worth a try.’

More than anything.
‘I should have reached it by now.’
It wasn’t just Pei-Lung that John had a hand in.
Ugh.
John took a step forward, wearing power generated by an organ that began to radiate more power than ever before.
***
In the large conference hall, dozens of people were sitting in their seats, staring at the screen displayed on the huge monitor that occupied one side of the wall.
I recalled a paper full of all sorts of complicated jargon and deliberately twisted puns, but no one complained about it.
Everyone tried to find a loophole in the papers with their eyes shining, and the meeting that lasted for several hours came to an end as they exchanged opinions.
The screen went off, and each person got up from his seat, holding a document or tablet, and began to move about busily.
Because business always has to be fast.
That time when the man was about to head out of the conference room, fixing his glasses with a tired face.
“Chief Odin.”
“boss.”
At the call of a middle-aged man with a benevolent expression, Odin politely bowed his head.
His face shows a tired look, but he is well-groomed and undisturbed at all.
A man like this can be said to be a talented person because he is doing his job flawlessly, and such a man is his subordinate.
Looking at Odin like that, the president opened his mouth with a satisfied smile.
“Today’s presentation was impressive. The profit margin of the new business is also good. I think I did a good job entrusting it to you.”
“It is an overestimation.”
It’s a cold face without any emotional change, but I liked that look too.
“Just do it like this. There will be good news soon.”
A ripple in Odin’s chest at the whisper in a quiet voice, but nothing changed on the outside.
“I look forward to it.”
“hahahaha. yes. Then see you again.”
The president, who smiled and tapped his shoulder, turned around and lowered his head until he disappeared beyond the conference room.
“······after.”
Confirming that the president’s presence had disappeared, Odin raised his head.
What appeared on his face was an indescribably complex expression.
His face was a grotesque mixture of boredom and disgust, hostility and contempt, but no one looked at it.
Tok, tok.
Odin brushed off the shoulder that the president’s hand touched with his hands as if he were shaking off an insect, and soon corrected his expression and went out of the conference room.
Passing through the hallway, he greeted the people he met and entered his office.
Odin, lying on a chair in the office, which had no decorations, loosened his tie.
I put my glasses down on the table and muttered with my eyes closed for a moment.
“It’s been three years and a little more. It wasn’t that difficult.”
the president’s words.
If you continue the current momentum, you will be able to become a member of the board of directors, and from then on, you will be able to run towards the true goal of Odin.
I didn’t think about failure.
His current position and job were all too familiar to him, and Odin was not soft enough to miss the familiar job.
Odin, lost in thought, straightened his posture and tightened his tie.
Putting on my glasses, I reached for the papers on the desk.
Although his current work is a means to his true goal, Odin was never a person who wasted his work.
That time when I was looking at the papers and was about to pick up a pen and sign.
– Guild leader!
A voice full of urgency penetrated the space, and Odin, who had stopped moving for a moment, slightly raised the corners of his eyes.
Ugh.
With a light hand movement, enormous power was projected from the outer world using Odin’s body as a terminal, and the office turned into a completely different space in an instant.
It was a barrier that made it impossible for even the most superhuman to keep an eye on Odin in this space.
“What is going on?”
The voices of the guild members across the space answered Odin’s calm voice.
– It’s a big deal!
“So what’s the big deal?”
Everyone in the guild firmly believes in Odin and follows him because he keeps his cool and presents countermeasures at any time and in any situation.
The voice of the guild member stuck in Odin’s ears as he calmed down.
– It’s a mutant!
“······what?”
– A mutant appeared!
Odin, whose expression had hardened to the point of fear, jumped up from his seat without realizing it.
