“i am Esil, the first-born daughter of house Radiru. And my extended family is…”
“No, now not that.”
Jin-Woo cut Esil off.
He didn’t honestly care about the finer details of a monster family’s records. What he wanted to understand became the reason why monsters and immediate dungeons existed.
How have to he move approximately asking this question, so he’d get himself a satisfying sufficient solution?
No, he might nonetheless be ok if there was no concrete answer. He’d be glad enough to get a unmarried clue, a lead of a few type.
He tried asking the same factor to monsters in the regular dungeons, but the simplest component he got to examine was that they could handiest pay attention the order of ‘Kill the humans’ inner their heads.
‘if so, do those men acquire the precise identical order, too?’
in order to assist him compare the contemporary situation with the monsters of the normal dungeons, he simplified the question a piece.
“hello, do you furthermore may hear a voice telling you to kill people?”
“Pardon me?”
Esil looked at him with a couple of confused eyes.
because she changed into nevertheless kowtowing on the floor, he had to retain staring down at her if he wanted to talk to her face to face, and he kinda felt a bit uncomfortable about this arrangement.
‘Tsk.’
Jin-Woo lightly clicked his tongue, and as though Esil become a touch kid, picked her up and made her stand straight. and then, he stared at her face once more.
maybe she were given scared of the unannounced bodily touch, he heard her heart charge quicken enormously. not minding that, Jin-Woo asked her again.
“I’m asking you in case you pay attention a whisper of someone busy telling you to kill humans.”
“Oh….”
Esil hesitated and contemplated for a moment, earlier than establishing her mouth.
“No. but, we do hear a one-of-a-kind voice all of the time.”
“ok. What does it say?”
“It tells us to… guard the distance we’re residing in.”
Esil spoke carefully even as being greater mindful of Jin-Woo’s reactions.
‘The motive of the instant dungeon’s monsters isn’t like monsters of the ordinary dungeons?’
the sole purpose of the monsters from the ordinary dungeons became to kill human beings, while the monsters of the immediately dungeons have been to shield where they had been. the character of the 2 camps’ intention was quite one of a kind from each other.
‘Wait a minute….’
Now that he notion about it, wasn’t Jin-Woo a monster-like lifestyles to those monsters of the immediate dungeons??
Esil’s complexion was nevertheless pretty pale after bearing the whole brunt of his skill, ‘Intimidation’, and he couldn’t help however sense a wee little bit of pity for her.
only a tiny bit, although.
“How long have you been listening to that voice?”
“It’s right after we opened our eyes on this area.”
‘After establishing their eyes in this vicinity, is it?’
Didn’t that suggest that she and others were dwelling in some other area before this? whether that become a genuine or a fake memory, that’s what become left imprinted in her mind.
Jin-Woo endured on along with his wondering.
“ok. Then, where have you been before waking up on this place?”
“We had been in the Demon global. We just awoke someday and found ourselves caught here.”
“And what have been you doing lower back inside the Demon international earlier than that?”
“We have been…. getting equipped for struggle.”
“conflict, you assert?”
“yes.”
Did she do not forget the memories of returned then? Esil’s expression now not had any traces of worry whilst she changed into begging for her lifestyles, now best packed with grave willpower.
“We have been inside the scenario of making ready for warfare towards a horrifyingly powerful foe that necessitated each demon scattered round in the Demon international to unite….”
….And that’s in which Esil’s phrases had been cut off.
“…”
No, appropriately talking, Esil was nevertheless speakme. Her lips were genuinely transferring up and down even now. however, Jin-Woo couldn’t listen her voice at all. rather, he became blessed with the monotone mechanical voice spat out through the machine.
[You have exceeded the allowed information threshold, therefore this conversation has been blocked.]
[You have exceeded the allowed information threshold, therefore this conversation has been blocked.]
[You have exceeded the allowed information threshold….]
right until Esil’s reasons got here to an cease, that exact same message performed time and again again.
Jin-Woo’s eyes gleamed suspiciously.
‘Had you left it by myself, I wouldn’t have suspected anything, virtually.’
certainly, he may have idea Esil’s factors as a backstory for the monsters of this place cooked up by the machine or some such. Levelling up, immediate dungeons, quests, quest rewards, consequences, and even the technique of getting his magnificence…..
He was confronted with one situation after any other that resembled video games, so if monsters had a game-like backstory as well, it’d now not encounter as ordinary in any respect.
but, the moment the machine forcibly intervened, Jin-Woo became certain of 1 issue.
‘speakme to her would possibly deliver me a clue to fixing everything, in different phrases.’
The gadget made a clear and precise mistake here, simply now.
“Did…. Did I make a mistake someplace?”
when Jin-Woo’s expression have become graver, even Esil’s personal expression darkened.
‘What does the system need to cover? This unknown foe the demons have been purported to fight? Or the purpose for the battle? maybe the give up end result?’
that allows you to determine this out, he narrowed down the scope of his next question.
“What become the identity of these horrifyingly effective foes?”
but, at that moment….
Like a toy with a dead battery, Esil iced over up instant. however, that lasted handiest for a little at the same time as. She all at once misplaced focus and powerlessly collapsed to the ground.
Jin-Woo quick snatched her, and thoroughly laid her down at the ground. considering her breathing become constant, it didn’t seem like she changed into in any hazard.
but, there was a frown on her face; perhaps she felt a bit uncomfortable somewhere. She appeared to be having a piece of hassle respiratory properly, too.
in order to assist her rest greater easily, Jin-Woo started out ripping her armours off.
Riiiip.
Her armours came off rather without problems. He also tore the mantle on the returned of the armour, rolled it up and positioned it below her head like a pillow. It certain was a whole lot of work for a monster, however he didn’t suppose this turned into him being too pleasant in any respect.
because she ended up on this kingdom, he got himself but some other clue, that’s why.
‘The foes demons fought….’
The system reacted way too sensitively in the direction of the identification of this unknown foe, or foes.
‘ought to those beings be related?’
What if the ones beings possessed a few form of terrific transcendental powers, and for a few motive, exerted their have an impact on on the earth and extra especially, him….?
Jin-Woo summoned the shop interface.
He tried to wake Esil up with a potion, however it didn’t seem to work.
‘I wager I don’t have a preference but to attend it out.’
Plop.
Jin-Woo sat down subsequent to Esil.
And till she awoke, he systematically pieced collectively each tidbit of data she furnished him with.
***
“….Uh?”
Esil quickly raised her top frame.
Sensing another presence nearby, she appeared to her aspect and located the definitely-wordless Jin-Woo sitting there. Her shoulders flinched a little, simply then.
‘S-so, I wasn’t dreaming….’
Slowly attending to phrases with her new reality, Esil took a go searching her. And there had been big piles of dead advanced Demons found almost everywhere. Her brows shot up right away.
Demons with little intelligence didn’t treat different demons with intelligence as their kinfolk. So, an subconscious demon like her would’ve been seen as a tasty meal.
but…..
The only cause why she was unscathed like this, was….
“were you defensive me all this time?”
in preference to answering her, Jin-Woo raised his body up after which, extended his hand out to Esil.
Esil regarded as if she was profoundly moved and, after retaining onto his hand, carefully stood up from the spot.
“thanks.”
“How lengthy will we take to get to in which the access permit is?”
“It’s not too a long way from right here. I’ll take you there.”
Esil then offered Jin-Woo with each of her wrists.
“…..?”
“…??”
Jin-Woo and Esil stared at each different in confusion. Feeling a chunk pissed off, Esil opened her mouth first.
“I’m your hostage, so aren’t you speculated to bind my palms first earlier than transferring out?”
“Don’t wanna.”
He turned into confident of stopping her from resisting or escaping even without the useful resource of restraints. except, manner too much time were wasted already for him to waste even extra on something useless like that.
Jin-Woo spun Esil round and driven her barely on her lower back.
maybe she become nonetheless afraid of him, he sensed her heartbeat getting faster, however Jin-Woo didn’t point out it. instead, his gaze shifted over to the horses the demons rode on.
“What about them?”
“I’ll take them alongside.”
With a slightly flushed face, Esil took the reins of the horses and took the lead. Jin-Woo quietly accompanied her from at the back of.
***
simply as Esil said, they didn’t must tour some distance earlier than arriving at a place wherein the access allow was probable to be present. And it in order that took place to be a big castle.
‘A demon’s fort within the Demon’s castle, is it….?’
The Demon’s castle was best a ‘fort’ in name and became genuinely a tower, however the one in front of his eyes seemed to have taken quite lots of inspirations from the historic castles of the medieval instances.
The soldiers guarding the fort gates have become traumatic instantly after seeing Jin-Woo, however….
“He’s a guest.”
Esil spoke disinterestedly and pointed along with her chin, inflicting the guards to fast open the citadel gates. soon, a set of knights got here out from the inside of the castle to greet her.
“female Esil. We were awaiting your return.”
“wherein is my father?”
“The lord is waiting in the target market chamber.”
“Understood.”
one of the knights glanced at Jin-Woo and requested.
“girl Esil…. This gentleman is…?”
“He’s an essential visitor, so remember to mind your manners.”
After listening to Esil’s solemn tone of voice, knights quick parted approaches and lowered their heads.
Jin-Woo wordlessly followed after her and entered the deeper a part of the fortress. After an extended walk down a wide corridor, he located himself getting into a completely massive chamber that seemed like a md room in a dungeon.
‘So, this is the target market chamber?’
Jin-Woo scanned his surroundings.
apart from tall stone pillars reaching as much as the ceiling located at a normal c program languageperiod to both facets of the chamber, it become quite tons extensive open and empty. It turned into as if this entire place have been prepared for ability battles that would escape.
‘If I were to fight my way here, then I bet i used to be alleged to face the boss on this chamber, huh.’
Which intended, the male Demon Aristocrat sitting on a big throne atop a rostrum located on the opposite aspect of the target market chamber turned into the boss of this vicinity.
Esil and Jin-Woo stopped before the ‘boss’.
The boss became the first to interrupt the ice.
“Esil.”
“Father, this individual is….”
Even before paying attention to Esil’s clarification, the boss met the gaze of Jin-Woo, and its brows shot up high. The irises of the boss have been quaking visibly now.
“Y-you!! simply who did you bring before me?!”
“F-Father, this man is a visitor….”
Esil desperately tried to provide an explanation for, however the boss’s agitation didn’t need to lessen in any respect.
“A visitor?! simply what form of a visitor invades the home of the inviter with an navy?!”
“Pardon me?!”
Esil fast shifted her gaze over to Jin-Woo. just in which turned into this military her father was talking of right here?
The boss, in the meantime, stored his eyes firmly fixed on Jin-Woo and spoke with a trembling voice.
“Esil, do you no longer see it together with your personal eyes? can you no longer see the countless soldiers hidden in that guy’s darkness?” (TL note on the quit)
Jin-Woo’s glare sharpened up a notch.
Flinching from the surprising exchange within the environment, Esil speedy took a step lower back. in the meantime, Jin-Woo became quite amazed by way of this improvement.
‘I wager he’s were given pretty precise senses.’
It regarded that the boss turned into capable of ‘see’ the squaddies hidden internal Jin-Woo’s shadow.
‘not certain whether or not i can call this a great issue or not, even though.’
He had recalled all of his Shadow soldiers and saved them back in his shadow to prepare for battles, just in case, before arriving here.
“How dare you carry infantrymen into my residence?!”
As soon as the boss roared out, many knights rushed in the target audience chamber.
“Father!”
Esil cried out to her father in a noisy voice of her personal.
The boss become now standing up from his throne, evident down with anger-stuffed eyes. Staring silently on the developing state of affairs until then, Jin-Woo finally opened his mouth.
“We made a promise.”
Failing to sense any form of hysteria in anyway from Jin-Woo, the boss’s brows quivered substantially.
“What sort of a promise did you are making?”
“The access permit.”
Jin-Woo took a step forward.
“as long as you surrender the ground entry allow, I’ll quietly go away this ground.”
The boss swallowed his saliva nervously.
‘the person who hunted down demons at a frightening tempo while mountain climbing up the floors have to be him.’
The boss recalled how despondent he felt while the information of the an awful lot-trusted Vulcan and Metus falling reached his ears.
despite the fact that the Radiru extended family became nominally aristocrats, they were definitely ranked 20th, the final spot at the listing of the demon’s hierarchy. that means, they had been the weakest many of the aristocratic clans.
if they have been to stand off towards an enemy that took care of Vulcan and Metus pretty without problems, the boss knew that he’d should sacrifice quite a variety of their own. but, one of these terrifying enemy changed into pronouncing that he’d leave on his personal volition.
‘must I trust him….?’
The boss requested, feeling not totally satisfied.
“Is that the best aspect you need from us?”
as though he turned into expecting that, Jin-Woo spoke up.
“And additionally….”
‘however, of course….’
The boss’s forehead creased up in a frown as the scenario unfolded as he predicted. The demands of the strong were always unfair and consistent.
Even before listening to the ridiculousness of the needs that would insult the clan’s honour, and ridicule his proud soldiers, the boss could experience his chest tighten in frustration already.
certain enough….
the person positioned his hand at the shoulder of the boss’s daughter and spoke.
“I wish to borrow this kid from you, too.”
“….What did you say??”
The boss and the knights all cried out in astonishment concurrently. Jin-Woo scanned his place, feeling honestly confused now.
‘Mm?’
Esil informed him that she knew wherein the access lets in had been at in the higher floors. He simplest requested to ‘borrow’ her for a little bit so she ought to guide him to in which the allows were, but this changed into…..
‘Did I say something incorrect?’
Jin-Woo could best tilt his head this way and that as he alternated his gaze among the closely-trembling boss, the knights who couldn’t hide their astonishment, in addition to Esil and her deeply-blushing face.
