Inside An Adult Game As A Former Hero chapter 34
EP.34 Don’t work with adventurers, please.
It was different from the way I thought, but I defeated the 5th floor boss.
We decided to distribute the treasures we had collected before going down to the 6th floor. All the treasures in their backpacks were laid out on the floor.
A wealth that looks like 3000 gold.
A goblin shaman’s amulet.

Goblin Knight’s Sword.

Goblin Lord’s necklace.
Other miscellaneous things.
I gave all three of them except for Goobred’s necklace.
Xenia was startled and asked if that was okay, and I nodded without hesitation.
These are items from floors 1-5 at most.
It would be pretty salty if sold outside, but it wasn’t worth more than that.
While they were distributing the treasure in ecstasy, I inspected Goobread’s necklace.
Is it 500 years later?
It was covered with black spots and mold.
‘It’s an item I’ve never seen in the game.’
What effect does it have?
If I take it to the appraiser and show him, will he find out?
“Have you finished distribution? Then we move on to the next floor.”
At the end of the 5th floor, there was a door that looked exactly like the stone gate you saw when you first entered the dungeon.
The only difference from back then is that this door had to be touched by all four of us.
When it was confirmed that all the party members were alive, the stone door opened.
Beyond the stone gate, the portal was shining blue.
“Let’s go.”
I walked ahead
This party was a problem from the next floor onwards.
* * *
“On the 1st to 5th floors, you probably didn’t feel much of a threat. Your skills and experience are too strong to be threatened by goblins or anything like that.”
Crumble.
Every time you take a step, you hear the rustling of grass.
Unlike the upper floors, the 6th basement floor had a grassy atmosphere. The surrounding area was blocked off by a white stone wall, so in the end it was the same as a maze.
“First of all, the level of the monsters will be different from those upstairs. The traps are also incomparable.”
“Ah, anyway. How can it make such a difference just to go down one step?”
Chris shrugged and said.
Indeed, it is a spirit worthy of puberty.
“yes. That’s the difference. Do you two know about the blue wolf?”
I turned to Xenia and Kurba and said. When the word blue wolf was mentioned, their faces became serious.
“If it’s a blue wolf, isn’t it a level 22 monster? Does it come from here?”
“Right. So from now on, you have to be careful. Otherwise, someone could really die.”
“…Isn’t that too dangerous?”
Xenia asked in a worried voice. I smiled bitterly.
“It’s a dungeon. If you come to the dungeon, you have to take this level of risk.”
High risk, high return.
It is the principle of the world, and it also applies to dungeons.
A dungeon is a place that gives treasure that anyone can covet, but it is also a dangerous place.
To take only the treasure without taking a risk was nothing like a robbery.
“It’s not…”
She glanced at Chris.
It seemed that he was worried about his son’s life, not his own.
“Can we send this kid back? They are still young to take on such risks.”
“Mom, what are you talking about! Why are you making such decisions on your own?!”
“You be quiet! Even in the adventurer’s work, there is a step by step step by step. To you who just had a coming-of-age ceremony, the dungeon is early!”
A fight broke out between the hats.
The two didn’t make any concessions, and it seemed that the quarrel would never end if they were left alone.
‘I can’t return it anyway.’
This dungeon can only be progressed with 4 people. It means that the moment even one person falls out, it cannot be cleared.
I must have said it when I came, but did I forget it because I was so excited?
It was time to remind Zenia of that fact and try to calm her down.
“Quiet for a moment.”
I felt something approaching.
The hat, which had been arguing over my words, shut its mouth.
As I stood still and was vigilant, a large wolf appeared at the fork on the right about 10m ahead.
“The blue wolf… no.”
I nodded at Zenia’s words.
It wasn’t the blue-haired wolf that suddenly appeared. He was a normal wolf with gray fur. The size is still unusual though.
‘I hurt my right front foot.’
He wasn’t injured, he was completely amputated.
“Wow… the size is really big. Still, I don’t have one leg, so wouldn’t this be worth trying on my own? Isn’t it Mom?”
“…Yeah, it would be nice to have some experience at this point. Try it.”
“Oh yea! Heh heh, that bastard is now dead… Kek!”
I grabbed Chris by the neck as he was walking excitedly. Chris grabbed my throat and let out a groan, but I didn’t care.
My gaze was still fixed on the wolf’s paws.
Blood was constantly dripping from his front paw.
“I have to get out. You can’t be close to that wolf.”
“What? What…”
Aww—
A wolf howl from all directions.
Oh my, it’s already too late
“What, what?!”
“What? The wolves are coming to catch the game they missed.”
“A prey? Wolves eat wolves?”
“There is only Jiddle in the dungeon, so what are you going to eat? Shut up and get ready to run. Even that seems too late.”
– Whoops… Whoops!
The gray wolf looked at the fork in the road and howled. At that moment, a blue-haired wolf jumped out of the alley and bit the gray wolf by the neck in an instant.
– I’m awake…
Could it be that the loudest barking was the greatest effort he could have made? The gray wolf was limp without much resistance.
When the hunt was finished, the blue wolf turned his gaze to his new game.
He looked at us with a ferocious look.
“Follow me.”
He immediately drew his sword and ran forward.
The blue wolf spits out the gray wolf. Recognizing me as a new prey, the guy poked out his wide open jaws.
Its jaws were large enough to swallow me in one bite.
If you can swallow it.
[kill the wolf]
An effective technique against beast-type monsters.
From the top of the wolf’s jaw to the head, it was cut cleanly.
– Kung!
At the fork on either side, a blue wolf jumped out, one from each.
No problem.
Just move the sword twice.
[kill the wolf]
[kill the wolf]
Killed the two wolves and looked back. They were confused at first, but soon they came to their senses and started chasing after me.
Okay, so that’s it.
As long as the party is established, the experience points will be shared, so even if I kill the wolves by myself, they can grow.
‘Then there is nothing to be afraid of.’
Kill the monsters that stand in your way.
Wouldn’t it be really easy if that was the only solution?
But, as always, the world didn’t go the way I wanted it to.
– chuckle
A sound that makes people uneasy.
I turned my head back.
The floor that Kurba stepped on had sank about 10 cm.
It’s a trap.
-click.
He quickly rolled his eyes.
Four small holes were made on each side of the wall.
‘The distance between me and them is about 5m. Can you strike out all the arrows?’
Even before I could do the calculations, my body was already moving. The body is faster than the head. After two steps, I reached their side.
– Pavabak.
Eight arrows were fired at the same time I arrived.
[Strike]
The silver sword deflected five arrows.
‘I couldn’t knock it all out.’
No matter how good a technique is, it is not possible to ignore the limitations of the body. There is a limit to the speed of the sword that this body can produce.
Can not help it.
The rest of the three shots are all I can do but hope that the party will figure it out and avoid it.
I turned my head.
“My legs hey hey hey!!!!”
Chris screamed as he looked at his skewered legs.
oh shit.
* * *
Chris was shot in the leg by an arrow, unable to move, and the party stopped moving. The scattered blue wolves gathered and surrounded them.
The Blue Wolves and Cloud Party fell into a stalemate.
“Draw arrows and heal with potions.”
Having said that, Cloud stood still with his sword on the floor and looked at the wolves.
Chris felt pressure from the wolves’ fierce eyes. Nevertheless, he kept his hands busy for treatment.
He drew an arrow and applied a potion.
“Turn it off..!”
The potion Chris used was of low quality.
Abrasions and cuts are easily treated, but large wounds such as penetrating wounds are less effective. Chris had to suffer in great pain until he had healed.
“Chris, hold on a little… a little bit. you’ll be fine Ugh, I should have been hit instead…!”
“Mom, please… be still…”
Calming his restless mother.
Meanwhile, Kurba was going crazy.
‘Damn it. Damn it. Damn it!’
Even if you turn your eyes this way, you are a wolf.
Even if you turn your eyes to that side, the wolf.
There are only blue wolves all over.
What if those bastards attack at once?
how is it
He will be ripped to pieces without a trace.
There is only one reason why those wolf cubs don’t attack despite their numerical superiority.
‘That bastard called Cloud.’
He tore apart dozens of blue wolves by himself. I’ve seen it in person, so I guess I’m not rushing. If you rush in without thinking, too much damage will occur.
‘At first I thought he was just an unlucky bastard…’
Now it was different.
It was just a monster bastard. Why the hell is that a grade A?
If I come back alive, I will definitely ask the guild.
…if you come back alive
‘Damn it, I want to live!’
Like any adventurer, Kurba also had a strong desire to survive.
He grabbed his leg and looked at Chris as he moaned.
‘If it wasn’t for that little kid…!’
If Cloud broke through the pack of wolves, he could have run after them.
Kurba resented Chris. Even though he was only caught in the trap that Kurba stepped into. This is the essence of human selfishness in a corner.
‘When will everything be cured?!’
He was impatient and couldn’t keep his eyes on one place.
It was just the time that passed.
Kurba found an unusually wolf-free area among the wolves’ siege.
Kurba saw there and widened his eyes.
‘Is that…?’
Are you giving me room to run away?
Maybe it will. Wolves aren’t stupid, can’t they just make a gap like that?
From their point of view, Cloud is a natural enemy that threatens the survival of the clan.
Except for him, everyone else will look like a dwarf.
He wants to let go of the dwarfs who can get in the way of the fight for the survival of the clan. Otherwise, I can’t explain it!
‘I have to go. This is your last chance.’
It was the moment Kurba was about to step away.
“If you go, you die.”
Cloud said.
His voice was so cold that I couldn’t even think of a voice he had ever heard.
Kurba, as well as Xenia and Chris, felt the chill. The wolves lowered themselves and roared… briefly wept.
“Go, you won’t die if you go, but if you don’t you will die! Can’t you see that empty spot in your eye color? It’s just that you’re going to let it go. If you just run to that place, you can live!”
“I understand the fear. Keep your mind straight though. What’s the reason they let you go? And even if you are lucky enough to get out of this siege, there will be a chase. Can you deal with this wolf alone? How many, if any?”
“It could be up to one or two! At least you’d be much more likely to live than to fight here. do you? Can you deal with all the wolf cubs here? alone?”
“yes.”
An immediate answer without the slightest hesitation.
For a moment, Kurba was at a loss for words. Soon, his expression darkened.
“Yeah, damn it, you can do it! but we can’t If those bastards attack, you’ll live, but we’ll all die! Shit… It’s all because of you who brought us here in the first place. It’s a dog! “
“Are you old enough to use it like a child? I clearly announced that I was going to the dungeon a few hours before I arrived. Yet you followed. smiling brightly. Then, wasn’t it that you were prepared to die?”
“…”
Kurba shut his mouth.
Because if he walks away with it, it will damage his pride as an adventurer.
Cloud continued.
“Still, you are not very wrong. I’m not a little responsible for you guys coming here. So stay by my side I will take responsibility and save you.”
Even for a moment, Kurba’s heart moved at the confident words.
According to the author… maybe we can really live in this kind of situation.
Kurba’s reason and sense collided.
And Kurba…
“Damn it!”
chose the opposite s*x.
As usual, he ran towards an empty place where there were no wolves, believing that reason would save him.
Following reason is a wise choice.
If it were the perfect reason that was not eaten by other emotions.
– Aaaaaah!
It wasn’t long before a terrible scream was heard.
Cloud sighed.
“You nerd bastard.”
