Chapter 56

56. The Third Apostle, Cravey (2)

‘If only my sister had obtained the Dragon Killing Sword… … . No, at least if I had been able to get in touch with Elaim, I would have been a little relieved. Are you still wandering around the dungeon?’

There were more deaths and missing people than the original. So I couldn’t stop worrying about my sister.

Even contact with Ellaim was cut off, so I can’t help but assume that something happened to my sister.

And is it because of that anxiety and worry?

Contrary to the will of my head, my body got out of the system on its own and moved to the Heartron Dungeon.

what am i doing now?

When I had such a question, I was already galloping across the wide plain, pulling the horse’s reins.

‘damn… … . I’ll at least check to see if my sister got Delbella.’

Returning from the Hell’s Dungeon to the island, three days have passed before I knew it. Every time I fall asleep, I dream of my sister dying.

At that moment, I woke up drenched in a cold sweat.

‘… … If I’m going to suffer from nightmares again tonight, I’d rather go to sleep after confirming my sister’s survival.’

A heart beating with nervousness and anxiety.

And in line with the beat of the heart, the horse increased its speed even more.

all over again.

I was able to reach the beginning of the mountain where Heartron Dungeon was located in just 3 hours.

A wide alley leading from the entrance of the mountain to the entrance of the dungeon.

The path was fairly neatly trimmed.

It must have been managed by the academy for the annual practical evaluation.

Parbat!

I checked the entrances to the dungeons one by one, following the map I had secured in advance.

Had it been about an hour?

I frowned and clicked my tongue slightly. This is because all entrances and exits marked on the map were blocked by the Imperial Army’s impenetrable security.

‘I don’t know where the secret passage where my sister will come out is… … .’

A web novel written in words, not pictures.

No, even if it was drawn as a picture, I wonder if he would remember even such a detail!

I couldn’t think of anything else, so I covered my face with both hands.

“hahahaha, I can’t help it.”

After I got off the horse, I approached the 11th doorway where my sister had entered.

“Hey, who are you!”

Sreung!

Soldiers with swords drawn from their waists.

Even the soldiers who were lounging around began to gather at the 11th doorway.

In the blink of an eye, I was surrounded by 20 to 30 soldiers.

“My name is Kayneth L Arden. I am a student at the Central Academy of the Labadian Empire.”

I raised both hands towards the sky. As if there is no fighting will.

“no way… … .”

“I came because I wanted to hear about my sister’s whereabouts.”

At my remarks, a female knight who appeared to be the commander stepped forward.

A beautiful knight with golden hair and green eyes.

Clad in pure white silver armor, she immediately saluted when I presented her ID.

Remembrance!

“nice to see you. Viscount Arden.”

At the same time as her salute, the soldiers who had pointed their weapons at me immediately let go of their combat stance.

“Yes, nice to meet you. But now, before saying hello… … .”

When I questioned her whereabouts, she stiffened her face and shook her head cautiously.

“sorry. The whereabouts of Lady Sophia have not yet been found. under… … . But I’m sure you’ll be fine.”

“… … is that so.”

I replied in a voice of disappointment.

At that moment, the female knight put her right hand on her left chest.

“Please trust us now. There is a high possibility that an assassin is hiding inside the dungeon.”

“… … okay. By the way, how many rooms did your sister go missing from?”

At my question, the person living here tilted his head.

“yes? why is that… … .”

“I was just asking out of curiosity.”

She hesitated for a moment before answering, but then pulled out a map from her bosom.

“… … This is room 27 with a collapsed ceiling.”

“No. 27. All right. Then, I’m just… … .”

I turned around with a bitter smile.

Seeing me like that, I ordered the soldiers living here to return to their respective positions.

but… … I’ve come this far, but I can’t go back so easily.

“… … Element Magic – Ice Fog.”

A caster word muttered in a small whisper.

Fuhuaaa-

A cold mist began to spread around me.

The knights and soldiers looked at me in amazement.

“What is this!”

At her short cry, I turned my head with cold eyes.

“It has already been three days since my sister disappeared.”

“Joe, if you wait a little longer… … !”

“Don’t think that I will trust you and wait forever. Instead of you incompetent bastards, let me find my sister myself.”

“Hey, hold on!”

The female knight stretched out her hand toward the air.

But in an instant, I burrowed into the fog and disappeared.

“Chu, block the doorway!”

At the belated instruction of the female knight, the soldiers guarding the entrance quickly threw themselves.

but… … .

Tadada dat!

In an instant, I passed between the soldiers and entered the doorway.

“No. 27… … . No. 27… … .”

I passed the fork in the road without hesitation while muttering the number of the room where my sister was missing several times.

After a while, people’s voices came from behind.

Have you already been chasing me?

The faster-than-expected pursuit speed made me break out in a cold sweat for a while.

“At the second crossroads… … .”

Even while running, I took out the map I had in my pocket once in a while to check the exact location, and I was able to move to Room 27 in no time.

“damn.”

When I got out of the aisle and reached room 27, I twisted my face.

No way, I thought the collapsed ceiling had blocked the passage to the basement.

In an unexpected situation, I had to put on a face of embarrassment.

“… … Didn’t the rocks fill the underground passage?”

No one was there to answer that question. I can only hear the voice of the female knight calling out my name.

I bit my lip at the sight of the soldiers running behind me, and soon swung my staff toward the floor.

“Element Magic – Water Strike!”

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!

“Endyron!”

-Yes, jump down!

A sinkhole with a diameter of 3m made in the floor.

I threw myself into a hole full of darkness.

Among the many rooms that exist in the dungeon, only this room 27 has a huge underground passage.

There must be an elevator hidden inside the dungeon that will take you down to the basement… … . You won’t have time to look for it.

Parbat!

“Heeheeeik-!?”

bungee jumping… … No, I was afraid of even the gyro drops in amusement parks, so I could never have thought that I would jump hundreds of meters without any equipment.

I had the courage to jump down, but I closed my eyes tightly with a contemplative face.

I’m glad I didn’t have a heart attack.

and after a while,

with a plop!

I fell into a mass of water that Endairon floated through the air.

Thanks to this, the impact of falling tens of meters was greatly alleviated.

Endairon immediately built a platform under my feet.

“ha… … . I really thought I was going to die.”

I let out a deep sigh and grabbed my chest with my right hand.

“Come on, Viscount-!”

The voice of the female knight overhead echoed throughout the aisle.

Of course, he did not answer her call.

Answering doesn’t change my mind, does it?

“Viscount! Viscount Arden-! Hey, this child is a baby-! ”

Hey, isn’t the last one too harsh?!

I blocked my ears and ignored the constant calls of the female knight.

But why? As much as her last call came loudly as if it pierced her ear canal.

“Ah, a child… … .”

Even if it looks like this, the name is noble… … .

With a puzzled expression, I raised my head and looked up.

That moment.

f*ck!

“Cheukhak!”

A small stone hit my forehead.

Could it be that she didn’t drop it with a grudge?

I rubbed my forehead roughly and frowned.

-… … Are you okay?

“Big… … . Let’s see.”

Endairon let out a small sigh at the sight of me swearing revenge, and closed his eyes.

Did you come down about 200~300m like that?

Endairon spoke first in a moment of silence.

-Don’t worry too much. As long as Elaim is with you, there will be little concern for Sofia-sama.

“surely… … In the spirit realm, Elaim will be invincible. But in Middle-earth, you can’t use that power properly.”

-that… … .

“Also, although my sister’s mana amount has increased, against that guy… … .”

I was speechless for a moment.

The beings called apostles were definitely threatening.

No matter how much Elim is with you, you can’t be sure of victory with the current sister.

“Whoa, anyway, this is a job for me too. If I continue like this, I will continue to suffer from insomnia!”

At my cry, Endairon closed his eyes and shook his head.

Then I lowered my gaze and looked down, but the bottom was just so dark that I couldn’t see the end.

-… … It’s pretty deep.

“I’ll probably go over hundreds of meters lightly.”

-That much space… … .

“Room 27 was originally one of the traps installed in the dungeon. Well, it seems like it hasn’t been working properly since it’s been so long.”

From noble mtl dot com

The Academy’s teachers who attacked the Heartron Dungeon decades ago.

It must have been that the trap they hadn’t confirmed was triggered by the shock from the collision between Sister Sophia and the third apostle, Cravey.

Swoop.

I tried to illuminate the surroundings with the lantern I had prepared in advance.

A passage blocked on all sides by walls.

While going down the round underground passage, which is estimated to be 7-8m in diameter, I immediately looked at the floor with a lantern at the word of endairon, ‘I have arrived.’

“Hmm… … . Are they rocks that fell from above?”

I looked around as I landed on a huge rock.

And as I tried to illuminate the surroundings with the lantern held in my right hand, Endairon approached me.

-If you need a light… … .
