Chapter 22 – Leveling Up (1)

“Today, I plan to go down to the 10th floor.”

“…… Suddenly?”

“Yes.”

Eunha tilted her head as if taken aback by my sudden opinion. Hey, it would be surprising to hear that we, who were hunting on the 3rd floor until the other day, suddenly went down to the 10th floor.

“There was advice that if we were capable of hunting on the 10th floor, there would be no problem.”

“Who did you hear it from?”

“To Hanyoung.”

At those words, Eunha shook her head as if she had roughly noticed. We headed straight to the 10th floor of the dungeon.

Unfortunately, the way from the 6th floor was not known with Deokgu’s ability. I had no choice but to buy a map drawn by the guild’s professional mapper and climb the dungeon.

‘What…… This is much more comfortable to look at.’

The map he purchased was incomparably superior to the map that Deokgu made himself using his abilities.

If the map drawn by Deokgu felt like a scribble drawn by an elementary school student for fun in a picture book, the map sold was like looking at a radar accumulated in 3D.

At a glance, the roads, points to be aware of, and traps were listed in an easy-to-see format.

‘If only I knew this would happen…… I should live right away.’

The map wasn’t too expensive either. A few silver coins. We can live by working for half a day now.

Thinking that from now on, we should just pay and get professional help, so we followed the map and went upstairs.

On the 4th floor, a goblin shaman using magic appeared.
On the 5th floor, a goblin warrior rode a red wolf and crashed into it.
On the 6th floor, a goblin similar in size to ours appeared.
7th floor…….
8th floor.
…….

And the 10th floor of Gearco.

“Khook.”

A 2 meter tall orc welcomes us. The muscularity of the whole body was so huge that it could lightly crush and kill a human without any technique.

The two eyes that were embracing life were burning fiercely, as if they would rush at it at any moment.

‘It looks fucking scary.’

If I had to fight a guy like this, I would break the head of the guy who said that.

It wasn’t like I was going to be able to wrestle and defeat a 2-meter-tall, muscular monster.

Usually people think that big muscles make them dull, but in fact, the opposite is true. It was doubtful whether he would be able to avoid the explosive speed that came from his muscles, and if he was caught, it would be the end.

Even if I was a jiu-jitsu or wrestling champion, that was the case. With this much of a difference in physique, you should be able to break down the technique with just strength.

But just like orcs have huge muscles, we also have cheat abilities.

“Go, Seo Yoon-mon.”

“…… Do you know what Pokémon I am?”

While Seoyoon grumbled, she stretched out her hand. It was an action to use the ability more easily.

With the movement of her arm her, powerful cold air gushed out, and after a while, a huge ice pillar protruded and pierced the orc.

It was a pointless death compared to its size, but it was a scene I had seen so far, so I naturally picked up the manastone dropped by the orc and captured it.

Indeed, the color was different from the magic stones the goblins dropped. If the goblin’s manastone was as shiny as a fingernail, the whole of this manastone was shining brilliantly.

After hunting orcs a few times, we naturally began to feel a sense of omnipotence rising from our bodies.

‘Ah, this is…….’

Even if no one explained it, I could tell that this was just leveling up.

I could only explain it like that. It feels like the level of existence itself is rising.
Overwhelming pleasure, as if the soul had climbed a stairway to heaven.

We stood in the middle of the dungeon, lost in the transcendent ecstasy of leveling up.

Orcs began to approach us from the surroundings, aiming for us who stood there blankly. I heard footsteps as big as big muscles, so I knew they were approaching before that.

Seoyoon unconsciously raised her hand and aimed at the orcs. I stopped her and drew her sword.

Intoxicated with a rising sense of omnipotence, I felt like I could do anything now. As if to answer my will, a hot energy began to boil inside my body.

[Extreme limb body]

Hot. The body is hot.
If you exhale lightly, hot air that will burn your hands comes out.
Instinctively, I knew how to deal with this aura.

Ignition.

The sword starts burning.
The orcs who saw the burning sword began to be wary of us.
But it’s already too late.

Wield a sword My body moves faster than I thought. The sword that moved then cut through the bodies of the orcs.

It may not be a very sharp sword, but it cuts through the body of an orc without any resistance.

Fire sword blow.

Having cut down several orcs at once, I lead the sword.
He even felt the power of leveling up.

* * *

After picking up the manastone dropped by the orc, we quickly got out of the dungeon by following the shortcut written on the map.

Indeed, despite going up to the 10th floor, the time it took to come out was similar to usual.

I came out and looked at Seoyoon and Eunha. The two of them were flushed red as if they still couldn’t get out of the heat of leveling up.

I waited for those two to come to their senses.

“Are you calm?”

“…… Yes.”
“Me too.”

“Then shall we go now?”

Calming our pounding hearts, we were welcomed by an employee who saw us every time we headed to the guild. We handed her her guild card straight away.

“There.”

“Yes, Mr. Dojin. What happened…….”

“Looks like we’ve leveled up.”

“…… Please wait a moment.”

She greeted us with a suddenly polite voice and always a smile. After going inside for a while, she came out and led us to a quiet room.

“Here is…?”

“This is the examination room. It’s a place to check if you’ve really leveled up, so don’t worry.”

The waitress smiled and handed us refreshments. It was a treat she hadn’t seen in the guild, where the atmosphere of taking responsibility for her own work was strong.

As we were enjoying refreshments, slightly surprised by the drastically changed atmosphere, a man appeared with a bead shortly thereafter.

“Excuse me. Just put your hand here.”

“…… Yes.”

As we raised our hands with a vague sense of anxiety about what we would do if we didn’t level up, the crystal ball began to glow.

Her man her, who was looking at the sparkle, opened her mouth with a wide smile.

“Right. Congratulations.”
“Congratulations!”

As soon as the man finished speaking, the employees started clapping with joy in the same way.

After the inspection, the waiter escorted us to the second floor.

“What is this…… It’s like a VIP.”
“I know.”
“…… It’s a little scary.”

I went upstairs while chatting with the two. The moment you go up to the second floor, where you couldn’t even see what it looked like, the atmosphere changes.

Unlike the first floor, which was filled with people and stuffy, the lobby was empty and spacious.

‘What is this….’

I was momentarily stunned by the sight of a modern bank. The employee who saw us like that tried to open the business right away.

“I…… From the second floor, you can have dedicated staff. If there is no one you want, we will randomly match it…….”

“Can we fix it?”

“Yes! He said that he usually chooses an employee he meets often.”

Unless you’re an idiot, you couldn’t help but notice what the smiling employee meant by that.

I looked at the two of them. The two seemed to have no disagreement, so I asked the waitress for our dedicated staff.

“Then will you do it for me?”

“Yes! Thank you! You will never be disappointed. Oh, you don’t even know my name? It is called Pion.”

“You know my name, right?”

“Of course, Mr. Dojin, Mr. Seoyoon, Mr. Eunha. Is it not?”

She didn’t let go of her smile, as if it was so nice to be in charge of us.

“Okay then, today’s settlement. Shall we begin?”

* * *

I carefully put the jingling gold coin into my pocket and came out of the guild.

‘It’s gold. It’s a gold coin.’

A gold coin worth a hundred times the silver coin has come into our hands. In terms of Korean won, it is a coin worth about 10 million won.

Of course, I really had to hunt hundreds of orcs to earn this…… It didn’t feel that difficult.

I made up my mind and looked back at Seoyoon and Eunha.

“Let’s hide the fact that we leveled up.”

“…… Why?”

Seoyoon asked. I explained that it was all for the children.

“When we find out that we have become Level 2…… What will the children do?”

“I will congratulate you.”

“Is that all?”

“Then what is there?”

“A little more lazy, a little more wasteful.”

“…… That too.”

Considering the children’s behavior so far, there was nothing good about letting them know that we had leveled up.

It was money that came easily, and it was obvious that it would be easy to spend.

“By the way, what are you going to hide?”

“I am going to buy a house.”

“Home? Suddenly?”

“You can’t live in an inn forever. Even if it’s cheap because it’s a long-term stay.”

Just in time for the festival, there was an item that I happened to see for sale. The price of the sale was about twenty gold coins.

‘Today we earned a gold coin…….’

There are more if you go into detail, but I didn’t count them. After all, you don’t need silver or copper to buy a house.

“Even if I can’t do it, I can buy a house in a month.”

Home, what a beautiful word. I thought it would be impossible to own my own house in Korea, but to come to another world and realize my dream of owning my own house.

I don’t know what life is like

And Seoyoon had been thinking about it for a long time, as if Seoyoon was also offended by the fact that she could buy a house with just one month of hard work.

I started to seduce her to ease her troubles her.

“I’m going to buy a big mansion.”

“…… Mansion.”

“It’s said to be a mansion used by nobles, but it has a large bathhouse and more than ten rooms…….”

“Lion.”

“…… Yes?”

“I want to buy it.”

“Okay. Great.”

Having bought Seoyoon, I immediately bought her Eunha as well. Actually, it wasn’t that difficult.

Because Eunha wasn’t a child who readily stood up for others’ opinions and expressed different opinions.

If you just insisted, she silently complies.

“Okay, so let’s save this money until we buy the mansion… Shouldn’t you tell the other kids?”

“Yes.”
“Okay….”

I went back to the guild and saved the money in my name, and just in case, I went to the real estate and made a down payment on the mansion.

Now, in just a month, I will have my own house. Our mansion.

* * *

In the mansion reserved for the saintess prepared by her church her, the saintess was lying naked on her bed her.

Normally, due to her Virgo blessing her, she had to keep her stuffy clothes, but as a reaction, she stayed close to her naked body her at home.

“Lady. You are degrading.”

“Isn’t anyone watching?”

“I see, God sees, and the spirits see.”

“Ah, you don’t have to worry about everything.”

“…… Holy maiden, am I right in front of you?”

“Therefore? Lotte, did you get excited about my body?”

The saintess said that and flirted. Her golden hair her runs lightly over her naked body her.

The way her big breasts were hidden by her hair, her was too racy, and it was attractive enough to attract even a person of the same sex …… Unfortunately, the paladin did not react.

“Why do you go into heat looking at that side?”

“Is it not it? Hey, how can you get excited when you look like this?”

The saintess who said that looked at her own Holy Knight, Charlotte. Even though the two of them were twins in appearance, she was so much alike that it was believable.

So, Charlotte was entrusted with escorting her saintess. It’s common for a woman to get excited about her attractive counterpart her, but she’s rare to get excited about her body and face her.

But Charlotte was more tired of this job than she thought.

“Oh right. Lotte. There is someone I want you to look for.”

“Who are you?”

“I don’t know the name. Her face her…… Black hair and black eyes?”

“Ha…… How do you find something like that?”

It was because of her free-spirited personality.
