64 – Another genre by myself

A swamp that holds all sorts of plagues, and a flower of hallucination that sucks mana.

I thought that Luatir had prepared very well. After all, I thought the first room was a joke. So this time, I was secretly hoping for another trap.

But what is this? Some crazy guy was waiting for us.

“Welcome! To the art of deception full of enjoyment!”

I couldn’t even understand what the madman in front of me was saying.

Besides, what are those crazy clothes? Take a look at the mantle, in which the colorful colors are scattered in disorder without any regularity.

But if you wear tops and bottoms properly, that’s not the case either. Clothes, hats, and accessories are all plastered with black and white checkered patterns. It’s a costume that makes you dizzy no matter where you put your eyes.

Were there any stores selling clothes like that? If so, an order to close the business should be issued immediately. As a prince, I couldn’t let a store mass produce people wearing clothes like that.

“Wahhahahahaha!! Poor lambs, who will accompany my deceptions! In this place today! With your sacrifices, my value will be even higher!”

Look at the tone of a madman back in the day. That guy can’t be left alone.

Where are you trying to tarnish the glory of the system now? Unpleasant by its very existence.

“It seems that the author is the boss of this dungeon, Prince.”

I nodded slightly at Professor Luctae’s words. In fact, wasn’t he a big credit for being able to break through the rooms with traps earlier?

His skills seem to be certain, so it’s okay to trust his words.

“Fortunately it doesn’t look that strong, but… Uh…”

“Is there something on your mind?”

“Mana’s temperament is… Unusual.”

Mana’s temperament? It’s the first time I’ve heard it, but I didn’t interrupt my conversation with a useless question.

However, he changed his mind after seeing Professor Luctae’s pale face. I was thinking that Luatir might have brought a dangerous person to where we are.

Is Professor Luctae so fearful?

“Wahhahahaha!! Wahahahaha! Ha ha ha ha!!”

Is that maniac?

—–

“What is it that makes you so afraid?”

I couldn’t carelessly say anything about the prince’s words.

How can I explain this?

Perhaps no one but me sees his foreign side. That man’s bizarre mana that spreads throughout this room.

“Hello~ Hello! My name is Poache of Deception! I want to play with you guys!”

Every time he stood on one foot and spun around in place, his mana spread rapidly. How can a person’s mana be so grotesque?

Just like a fingerprint, a person’s mana temperament has a uniqueness.

Taking the Archwitch as an example, her mana disposition resembles that of a hedgehog. It resembles a sphere surrounded by sharp spikes.

However, when he is the only one near Count So, he splits his body and covers his body with soft parts.

So Count is similar. His mana disposition is rather peculiar, like a stick with a fluff on one side and a dagger on the other.

It seems to appear in those who thoroughly change their attitude depending on the opponent. Fortunately, it is round enough to be called a dagger.

That alone shows how kind Count So is.

On the other hand, what about this man’s mana?

‘Clay?’

The grains that vaguely distort the shape, as if they were liquid or solid, repeatedly attached and fell.

It’s a mana temperament usually seen by scammers, but it’s severe.

“First of all… Prince. I will have a conversation with the author.”

“Umm, can’t you tell me?”

“Yes…”

The prince swallowed his saliva for a moment and then patted my shoulder.

“Be careful.”

“Yes.”

I can’t guarantee it, but I answered like that.

I approached the prince and others and asked them not to respond carelessly to what he said.

In the meantime, the man who had been talking all by himself shouted at us.

“Hey! Are you listening to me!? I’m really sorry about that! How long have I been out! Look at me!”

Because of the humorous way John and Hadae go back and forth, I felt that the positional relationship between us was ambiguously twisted.

‘Why am I really…’

Why are you always involved in these weird things? I lamented my situation and cautiously approached him.

But I couldn’t stand it while I was getting close to him, and the man twisted his body around and opened his mouth.

“You know me~ There’s something I really want to ask you guys~~”

And the man’s mouth drew a cold arc like a crescent moon, and he smiled creepily.

“Can I play with you?”

At that moment, the hairs all over her body stood up.

The time spent swimming… Hardened coldly like a lump of cold fat.

His mana, which had been floating drop by drop in the air, stopped all at once and paid attention to us. As if each mana had a will, as if it had eyes, it licked my body with its gaze.

A sense of shame and fear came over me as if I was naked and exposing every inch of my body.

‘It should never be accepted.’

I don’t know why I felt this way. Is it the realm of the sixth sense? I managed to squeeze my voice out as I overcame the pressure that was holding my breath.

“There are conditions!”

“Misuse!? What is it! Please tell me soon! I’m dizzy!”

He came up to me trembling all over and pushed his ear in an exaggerated motion.

I swallowed dry saliva and took off one of his gloves. To confirm his mana disposition in a clearer form. To check his mana form.

“Please shake my hand with me… Just once.”

Then he clapped loudly and giggled.

“Of course! Of course! Ruler! Here is my hand~”

He took a grotesque posture with his back bent at a deep 90 degrees and only his hands flashing. And then he grabbed my hand.

Immediately, the mana form of a man appeared before my eyes.

‘No…’

Then I despaired.

Clap clap clack!

His mana form was a monkey as big as a nobleman’s mansion.

Sitting against the backdrop of a dazzling circus stage, he is laughing at me in displeasure.

A huge monkey with six snakes on its tail was staring at me with vertical pupils that seemed to drip yellow ooze.

The snake sticks out its tongue and opens its mouth, but it doesn’t have any sharp teeth. Like an old man who has lost all his teeth, only his gums are gnashing.

But the fear did not go away.

No, I was more afraid because of that.

It is safe to say that the existence itself represents the bizarreness of this world.

Inside the snake’s mouth, another mouth was piled on top of itself, and it opened its mouth irregularly. Small hands, like those of a baby, were attached to the tips of the hair covering the monkey’s body, creating a magical feeling.

And in the very center of the monkey’s chest, there was a wild beast’s teeth as large as its huge body. No lips, just yellow teeth.

I swear I’ve never seen anyone with such a mana form before.

Most of them are in the shape of animals, but they are not so distorted.

‘Monster…’

How many distorted images do you have to have for a monster like this to appear in the form of mana?

As I was breaking out in a cold sweat and grinding my teeth, a man named Po Ache raised his face and asked again, his eyes flashing.

“Then can we play around now?”

I tried to say no.

As soon as the man asks a question.

Whoops!

The monkey wriggled with bizarre movements like slime, lowered its head, and thrust its huge face right in front of me.

It was obviously not real, but I could clearly feel the hot, sticky breath exhaled by the monkey.

And the moment it opened its mouth, it squeezed its thick lips and swallowed its breath when it saw the huge eyeballs protruding.

Without the red cracks that should have been there, her eyes were too small and round compared to the whites of her eyes, like an uninvited guest who fell into a vast snowy field.

Like a man’s cloak, all kinds of colors were messily mixed, so it was unclear where he was looking, like a foreign object.

Three eyeballs are staring at me, only my mouth.

As if to say something.

As if to agree.

If you let go of your hand, you can immediately escape from this pressure. But I couldn’t let go.

As if he wouldn’t let go of an uninvited guest who looked into his abyss, this man squeezed my hand tightly and made it impossible to escape.

“Uh… Uh uh…!”

In the end, I nodded my head slightly in a situation where I was seized with fear and could not even raise my voice.

And I saw.

From nob le mt l. co m

Mate mate mate mate mate mate mate mate

The hands clinging to the monkey’s fur all at once violently bumped into each other and applauded.

A monkey flailing its arms clumsily, as if imitating the conductor of a majestic orchestra.

And I heard.

Kahak! Ha! Aha! Wahahahahaha!! Pahahahaha!! hahahaha!!

The grotesque laughter of six snakes with their overlapping mouths moving each other, twisting their bodies and opening their mouths.

The huge teeth on the monkey’s chest crackled excitedly like a nutcracker.

The monster alone… Is acting to the cheers of many people.

“Good!”

As soon as the man let go of his hand, the mana shape that had been bothering me disappeared in an instant. However, the twisted cheers and images still lingered in my ears and on my retinas.

“Let’s play together!”

Let’s flap the cloak while saying that like an innocent boy.

The world has turned upside down.

“Woweee!!”

“Everyone! Prepare for battle!”

Ruktae vomited and collapsed to the floor as Rakkad pulled out her sword and shouted.

Fortunately, everyone was ready to face the battle without hesitation, as if they were feeling something serious.

‘Why are you like that?’

Secretly watching them, I tilted my head.

To be honest, I didn’t know why Luktae was so afraid of Poache. It’s just a little… No, he’s just a very peculiar man.

I could feel the discomfort, but there was no reason to feel the fear.

“Ahh… It started.”

Aisha gave me a disgusted expression as she hugged my head. Knowing Poache’s ability, it must look even more terrifying.

Since Luktae stepped forward as a representative, it was no different than getting permission from everyone to joke around.

“Ahahahaha!!”

You can tell just by looking at that bastard’s bright expression. How much fun would that be?

‘Then indeed…’

How can the members of the Cooking Research Club escape Poache’s deception?

I inflated my anticipation and watched them.
