35 – Raid

*

‘It’s hard to find every time…’

I searched diligently for the location of the dungeon near the military base in Hwacheon, Gangwon-do.

If you can’t find the entrance within an hour after the dungeon is created, you will be found by soldiers and entry will be restricted, so I searched like crazy and finally succeeded in finding it with 20 minutes left.

[Happy Village: A village where special abilities have been passed down from generation to generation through the village chief. Right after the demon king descended, a demonic reconnaissance unit came to the village, guided by the energy of the supernatural power.

As it was right after the Advent, the demons couldn’t stand their strength yet, but it was like a disaster in the village, and in the end, the village disappeared without lasting even half a day. Save that village.

Acquisition of Attribute ???]

The first dungeon I entered was a dungeon created with the strong will of a man and the power of Sercote, who had the epic poem of the King of Knights.

If the second dungeon was a dungeon created by mixing the will of the world and the myths handed down to people, this dungeon was a case where fragments of a destroyed world flowed into the earth.

‘Because not all worlds can resist the demon lord’s attack.’

Of course, there are worlds destroyed by the demon lord’s attack, and in the destroyed world, the grudges of many people who died there existed.

Those who had special abilities or mediums among them flowed into other worlds in this way, created dungeons, and rewarded those who relieved at least some of their resentment.

First of all, it is said that it was so in the settings I read, but I am not sure if this is true.

‘The gods must know.’

If there was no divine being, it wouldn’t make sense for me to inherit the memories of my previous life.

It was clear that the existence that allowed me to experience the future of this world in the form of a game was a god or something similar to it.

Well, no matter how the dungeon is built, the fact that I have to clear this dungeon doesn’t change.

I moved my feet into the entrance of the dungeon before someone came.

Koo Goong-

The moment the entrance to the dungeon was closed, the surrounding environment changed to a completely different world from where I was.

The open blue sky and green fields surrounding it. And a town in an ordinary medieval fantasy in between. That was the town I had to protect.

‘I heard that time passes slowly here.’

Dungeons made of fragments from other worlds pass time differently than outside, so even if you spend a long time inside, only a little time passes in reality.

In the case of this dungeon, the time multiplier is 10 times, so even if you spend 10 days here, only one day has passed in reality.

I didn’t have to worry about reality just because I spent a lot of time in the dungeon.

As I entered the village entrance, a little child with a basket full of flowers came up to me and handed me a flower.

“I’ll give you one!”

I know it’s an illusion created by someone’s grudge, but it was hard to do anything about it because there was no difference from real people.

“Thank you. I’ll take care of it.”

She walked through the village decorated with flowers given to her by a little child and put them in her pocket.

A young man who sells a lot of bread on display, children who play noisily, and even a woman who solicits customers to sell clothes. Everyone is living their own life.

Without knowing that they are fake, they enjoy their daily lives as best they can.

‘I would have lived a life like this in real life if it hadn’t been for the Demon King.’

The mischievous kid who lifts the skirt of the girl he likes, the store manager who feeds potatoes on the head of the clerk who spills his stuff, and that kid who gives flowers to people all would have lived without change.

The attack takes place at midnight. I went around the outskirts of town and started installing the scrolls I had prepared.

These are good quality guys who will stop or eliminate the demons that will attack simultaneously until I come.

Since I brought plenty of magic stones to drive the scroll, I thought I could play a role again.

After installing the scroll like that, I returned to the village and entered the inn to rest until midnight.

After paying with the currency that was in my pocket, I took a seat close to the counter at the tavern on the first floor operated by the inn and ate food.

To me, pickled in modern food, the food didn’t taste anything special, but the food that was warm enough to soothe an empty stomach seemed full of the chef’s sincerity.

I could see traces of hard cooking here and there. A lot of noise came from the tavern.

“Ha… My daughter is already 5 years old. She said the child is even rebelling now?”

“I hated getting married more than anyone else, but now that I’m married, I always talk about my daughter.”

“You should also try getting married. Whether or not the word comes out.”

A very noisy pub with their own stories, a freckled girl clerk who seemed at ease because there were no additional orders came up to me and started talking to me.

“You seem like an outsider, but how did you come to this town?”

She blushes as she looks at me, just like me, she wonders if she’s intoxicated by the raucous atmosphere of this place. I answered appropriately.

“On the way back from completing the quest, I heard there was a village worth going to for a night, so I stopped by.”

“Wow. Really? I’ve only grown up in this town, so I don’t know anything about the outside world! How’s life as a mercenary?”

She is a girl who probably died in a raid and never knew the outside world. Even in this false world, he explained calmly so that she could know the world outside of her.

Anecdotes about how Vulkan came to the mercenaries. When I dramatized the anecdote as if it were something I had experienced, I listened with a curious expression on my face and pricked up my ears.

“Wow… There are so many extraordinary things out there. Maybe I’ll be able to experience those kinds of things when I go out someday, right?”

From noble mtl dot com

No, you don’t experience those things. Soon the demons and the monsters that follow them will attack this village, and everyone in this village will die.

That middle-aged man with a big smile as he tells his daughter’s story, this girl with shining eyes dreaming of the world outside the village, and the innkeeper who sighs and serves on behalf of her daughter who is lost in the story all die.

But that wasn’t today.

“Sure. I’ll make it.”

“Yes..?”

He strokes the hair of a girl who looks like she doesn’t understand English. And she looked at the people who filled her surroundings with their own stories.

‘Even if it’s a meaningless action.’

At least for today, I’ll make sure you don’t die here.

To commemorate the souls of those who flowed here because they could not resolve their overflowing resentment, I will kill the demons and restore peace to the village.

A feeling like that was sprouting in my heart.

So I went up to the second floor and sat in the room I was assigned to spend time, and came out of the inn 30 minutes before midnight.

As the sun went down and the sky turned black, I moved out of the village, following the stars that embroidered the sky.

As I waited while placing the magic stones one by one on the pre-installed scrolls, I began to hear footsteps from far away.

Kung. Thud. Thud.

At least not the sound of one entity. Starting with black-skinned beings similar to humans, low-level monsters that seemed to number at least a thousand were flocking toward the village.

“What? There’s a human standing over there?”

“Really? What is that guy?”

Most of the demons are highly intelligent, so of course they can communicate. So I told them the options first.

“Hey, demons.”

“Huh? Do you know who we are?”

Because they are beings who have just descended following the demon king, they look at me curiously as if they know their true identity because it is a world where there is no concept of demons yet.

“I’ll take a look when I get back now. Get lost.”

If there are no demons who lead the monsters, all of them are ragtag and it won’t be too difficult to block them.

“What is that human talking about?”

“What crazy things are you talking about?”

‘Well… I never thought I would go back with these words.’

I just tried to see if I could solve it through conversation, just in case, but the probability wouldn’t even be 0.1%.

In order to negotiate, I have to present that kind of merit to the other party, but I won’t look very threatening to them alone.

“Guys. Wipe out everything from him to that village.”

Two demons giving orders to the monsters by snapping their fingers. Thousands of monsters started screaming and running towards the front at their command.

Hundreds of them were running towards me, and most of the others were running toward the village.

First of all, in order to block them first, I activated the first ability of the Knight King’s Sercote.

‘The momentum of the ruler.’

All enemies within a 100m radius started to hesitate under the momentum based on my strength.

The monsters outside the range were blocking their way to the village by activating the scrolls containing magic from the manastone.

In addition, after dumping all the potions that gave buff effects for up to 30 minutes into his stomach, he felt his body strengthened and declared to all the monsters around him.

“You can’t get through until you kill me, boys.”

Even if it was driven by the magical power of the magic stone, I am the one who triggered it.

If I die, the scroll that blocked the entry of those monsters will lose its power, and there will be no one to stop them from attacking the village.

“Yes. Just kill him first.”

The demon ordered me to target me.

Thousands of monsters surrounding the outskirts of the village were only staring at me, so the killing was very brutal, but perhaps thanks to my nobility, there was no problem with my spirit.

‘I didn’t know that I would live and be raided.’

Since it was a melee job, I inevitably did something to draw a wide range of aggro, so I felt like I was being raided by thousands of monsters.

‘Let’s do it.’

This time as a knight, not a wizard.

I will defeat them all.
