The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 429



430 – Daejeonjeon

As I remember, up to stage 60 it was a series of ordinary stages. All there was was a stage that required clearing out all the monsters and a little bit of cooperation, as if giving time to adapt to the changed environment.

However, from stage 61 onwards, different stages progressed than those in the novel. Unlike Roel, who was alone, it seemed like a variable that occurred because we had a large number of people. Still, there was nothing particularly difficult. The second reason for deliberately increasing the number of players is that it shows its true value in cooperative games.

The most important thing in cooperation is that your hands and feet must work together. You have to act quickly with your eyes and intuition without having time to exchange a conversation at the right time. However, using space magic, I was able to make several servings by myself.

You have to press the button all at once? All you have to do is use space magic to make people press a button by simply reaching out. Moving objects to avoid monster attacks? All you had to do was use spatial telekinesis to move objects to a designated location.

It was also easy to use space magic to catch the key flying in the sky and open the box. The ability to surpass the intention of cooperation was spatial magic. That’s what Raelan was aiming for as well.

The adventurers and wizards who were initially confused by the changed environment now completely trusted me. While I was fighting the monsters that were coming, I was suddenly breaking through the levels at an incredible speed. Who wouldn’t believe me?

Even when there was a stage where you had to kill all the monsters within the time limit, he first glanced sideways at me. Only after Raelan’s shouting did everyone come to their senses and take care of the monsters. So we quickly rested for another hour at level 80 and then climbed up to level 83.

There are 17 steps left. It turned into a stage-type dungeon and no one died. No, in fact, everyone knew that it was safer than before. I also knew that it was all thanks to my space magic.

That was the reason why Valentine, the owner of the Red Magic Tower, was openly rubbing his chest against my forearm. There is no magician anywhere who would not be thrilled by the ridiculous efficiency and practicality of space magic. Even Colton, an alchemist, was very interested in space magic.

But soon Colton’s interest turned not to space magic, but to Lily. Seeing how I solved problems related to magic that came up in level 81 without any hesitation, I realized that I also had considerable knowledge in magic.

“Are you a genius?”

“… ?”

I looked at him as if asking what kind of bullshit he was talking about, but Valentine, who had been staying next to me, snorted and responded instead.

“of course! The skill of using a spear alone is great, but even the knowledge of space magic and magic… “If this isn’t genius, what is?”

Everyone who was listening to Valentine’s sweet flattery nodded in agreement. She sighed and slowly approached Ellie’s side. Ellie smiled slightly and whispered to me.

“An inferior student is now called a genius?”

“Yes, it would look ridiculous to the eyes of a true genius.”

“No, I agree that you are a genius. “I used the expedient method of quantum jumping, but digesting it all and making it my own is impossible for the average person.”

I didn’t expect Ellie to respond so seriously to my joking self-reproach. She shrugged her shoulders and told me Ellie was smiling and had confidence in her. She didn’t really need confidence from me. The only person I can brag about how much I’ve grown is still in the coffin.

A little time passed and stage 84 began. There are as many buttons as there are people on the dome-shaped wall. There was no friendly explanation on how to proceed to each stage, so we spread out and pressed buttons at the same time. Then a small blue dot appeared in the center of the dome.

Shuuuk―――!

“aaah!”

“Fuck, what is that… !”

It started sucking everything in the dome into itself like a black hole. The adventurer, who had been pressing the button without thinking, rose in the air and flew toward the blue dot. We used space magic to save the adventurers who were about to be sucked into the blue dot, but it was seen that everyone could not hold out for long and were gradually being pulled towards the blue dot.

“Sal, save me!”

“… “Try using magic, at least magic!!!”

“What kind of magic are you using? “It absorbs everything!”

Derok’s body, with his weapon planted on the ground, seemed dangerous as it floated in the air, and the barricade made by the wizards immediately collapsed and was sucked into the blue dot. The more something was absorbed, the bigger the blue dot became in size and power.

I calmly examined the situation. There was no timer or anything around the blue dot. There were no monsters, no objects to move or shiny floors. Then the only answer was a button.

“Push the button again!”

Raelan must have reached the same thought as he shouted and used magic to press the button. But it was best for everyone to resist and not be dragged by the blue dot. He used space magic to press all of the other people’s buttons, but realized that the moment he let go, the lights on the buttons disappeared.

The buttons must be pressed simultaneously. I only have two hands, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have methods. Because I have the ability to pierce the head with 30 spear blades at the same time.

A blunt-tipped window was implemented and 14 buttons (excluding the one Raelan was pressing) were pressed at the same time. Then the blue dot disappeared, and all the adventurers who were floating in the air fell to the ground with a flopping sound.

“Oh my god, fuck! Lily, you are the best!!!”

The adventurer, whose face was bleeding from the nose, suddenly shouted loudly. I don’t know if he was angry or if he wanted to praise me. Anyway, stage 84 ended like that. The next stage wasn’t difficult. The magic-related problems were solved by Valentine and Ellie competing with each other.

However, in the 89th stage before the break, we all realized that something strange had come. A monster appeared. Unlike the last stage, where a number that was almost 10 times our number came rushing in, this time there were the same number as us.

But it was no ordinary monster. They all wore armor and weapons made from monster bones. Crucially, all of those monsters had reached the realm of transcendence.

“this… how.”

“The monster has reached the realm of transcendence… ?”

“Really, is this possible?”

That seems to have been a shock to the adventurers. Because the identity of an adventurer was to ultimately overcome monsters through endless growth. Their idea was that any strong monster could eventually be killed.

However, the monster in front of me did not survive solely on innate ability. Like adventurers, they killed monsters and gained experience, reaching the realm of transcendence and becoming able to kill the unkillable.

Even the monsters had superior physical abilities, so the adventurers, who were deprived of the only thing they could offer to the monsters called ‘growth’, were angry at the absurdity.

“Fuck, kill them all!”

“Come in, come in. “I’ll crush your head with a hammer!”

“I wonder if there are any furry females!”

As the adventurers let out excited voices, the Lizardman at the front of the group of monsters took half a step forward.

“Well, let’s all calm down.”

“… !”

“Fuck- monsters talk!!!”

“aaah! “aaah!”

As the panicked adventurers muttered, Raelan said he was annoyed and waved his staff to silence the voices. Leaving behind the adventurer, who was gaping like a drowning person, Raelan spoke to the Lizard Man.

“It’s a monster that can speak human language.”

“Speaking of human beings, is there a need for species distinction in language?”

In response to the Lizardman’s sarcastic response to Raelan’s words, Ellie, who was nearby, suddenly tapped my waist with her elbow. whatever.

“… Well, that’s right. So, are you planning on having a conversation with us just because we understand the language?”

“No, the rules are for a battle, but I said it because I felt like I would just rush in. Still, it’s a bit unfair for people who have reached the same realm of transcendence to fight without dignity.”

Raelan seemed really annoyed by the sight of the Lizardman shrugging his shoulders and walking away.

“Wow, monsters and such care about dignity… “Looking at your yellow teeth, it seems like you don’t even know how to brush your teeth.”

“of course. We don’t have teeth so weak that they all fall off with one punch. “It’s human nature to behave arrogantly like this, but then become obedient if you lose all your teeth and make it impossible for you to bite.”

Was it a big fight of words…? ? For a while, Raelan and Lizardman hurled harsh words at each other. However, our Raelan was an ‘unlucky b*stard’ recognized by Ellie. No matter how well-spoken the Lizardman was, he could not defeat Raelan, who was hated by everyone.

“Could it be that that thing under your fingernails is a piece of flesh that you put there to eat when you’re hungry during battle? In fact, there would be no concept of hygiene for monsters who live a miserable life by drinking rainwater that collects on the ground. I wonder what dignity such a monster is talking about. Do they show off the male’s superiority by comparing the size of each other’s horns? “Oh my, your horns are smaller than my little finger.”

“this person… ! Shut up and fight first! “I’ll cut your throat, pull out your tongue, and use it as a whip!”

The monsters behind cried loudly at the Lizardman’s shout. It looks like the Lizardmen are going there for the first time. We also turned our heads to discuss who would go first… There was no one in my field of vision. I turned my head to the other side, but I couldn’t even see Ellie touching my waist.

“… .”

As I turned around with the thought in mind, the adventurers and wizards standing back gave me their thumbs up. Even Raelan, who had been arguing, had already retreated with Ellie.

From noble mtl dot com

“Hey, I believe it! “You are our pride!”

“Show me, lily! To monsters, to the greatness of people, to the power of the leader who leads us… !”

“You are the strongest among us! Wipe out all those arrogant monsters!”

Derok, who was standing among the adventurers who were talking carelessly like that, heard Rakar often say, ‘Chief, I’ll trust you!’ He nodded at me with an expression on his face.
