Episode 181 Jinx (1)
Hans Christen.
A na familiar to the ears sowhere.
“Ugh! Bjorn! That person must be at that ti…!”
I rembered even without Misha telling .
It was because various summoned creatures were being summoned around him.
“I’m a summoner!”
An average level of 7 summons consisting of one attack type and three support types. I sighed as I checked each and every object.
‘Sohow, sothing familiar.’
As a result, even the possibility of being a similar person disappeared.
Hans G.
The gno judged to be a ‘player’ based on the fact that he knew Riakis’s pattern and the conditions for the Death Knight’s appearance.
‘Shit.’
How did you et this guy then?
A troll ca out from the 4th floor and almost killed everyone.
A player or sothing, Hans in this world is nothing short of a plague.
Turbuck.
the heart gets cold
have to kill
Only that thought dominated my mind.
“Mr. Yandel? Why have you been quiet since a
while ago—” He dashes with all his might.
It seems that the pause was to gain montum.
cooong!
Leaving clear footprints on the hard ground, it instantly closes the distance between him and .
Hans G did not just watch.
[Kyaaaaaagh-!]
A lizard that emits flas while screaming.
To be precise, it was a fire-attribute attack-type summoner nad Naimpi.
Hwaaaaaagh-!!
As a 7th grade summon, the flas were not very threatening, but the buffs of the support summons continued and the firepower increased explosively.
Chii profit!
The heat that warms the skin.
But what do you an?
“Behel—laaaaaaa!!”
The upper body is covered with a shield.
The rest are just filled with fire resistance and run through the flas. This may take so skin off, but everything has priorities.
Kwajik-!
The mace, which contained the ogre’s power intact, made a good sound.
At the sa ti, Hans G collapses with his head exploding.
Whether it was an instant death judgnt, it turned into light and disappeared before the body even touched the ground.
“What are you doing!”
Raven shouted at the act completely different from the promise.
It’s not like you don’t understand the feeling of being angry, but it won’t be too late to explain later.
“Don’t co closer!!”
I shouted authoritatively and moved swiftly toward my colleague.
And he drew in the breath he had been holding back.
“Whoop!”
done.
I t Hans, but I didn’t breathe the polluted air.
So it will be fine.
No, it should be okay—
“Can it be poison?”
Uh, that’s not it…….
What should I say about this?
“Okay, I’ll give up on this road for now.”
“Yes? No, it’s really poison?
I didn’t even notice that.”
With a sowhat high-handed attitude, he led the team back the way he had co.
But was it unfamiliar to ?
For now, Raven, who follows without saying anything, is making a serious expression for so reason.
“I wish I had co this far.”
After walking for about 5 minutes, I stopped moving.
However, the car turned his back and tried to explain what had just happened.
“What!”
My foot tripped on a jagged stone and my body staggered. I sohow managed to keep my balance in the middle and not fall…
but even this doesn’t feel like a coincidence.
Could it be that the Hans effect has started?
That’s right, it wasn’t a body, it was a doppelganger, right? Maybe it will end in this level of misfortune—
“Yandel! There’s more ahead!”
At Mr. Bear’s cry, I quickly checked the front again.
Two doppelgangers were approaching.
The reason I was convinced it was a doppelganger as soon as I saw it was simple.
Both of them erged from the darkness with identical faces.
‘Shit.’
I opened and closed my eyes tightly.
However, the scene in front of him did not change.
is this hell?
“I’m… kris… sen.”
“Han Skrisen…….”
Hans being copied.
***
This ti it was the sa as the first ti.
It was a stronger fla, and I rushed right away and broke the head.
It’s a bonus that I stopped breathing during that ti.
“Everyone hold your breath. Break through!”
“No? What?”
“No ti to explain!”
There was no way back, so I held my breath and crossed the aisle.
And when I thought I’d be okay now.
Eventually, I stopped and checked on my colleagues.
“Bjorn’s eyes are scary!!”
“What the hell is going on? No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think it was poison. Could it be that he was an acquaintance?”
Colleagues who can’t hide their confusion at my disparate behavior.
“Yes. He was soone I knew.”
I cald down and explained one by one.
The na of the doppelganger I t earlier was Hans.
And even the bad things that happened whenever I t Hans.
“Isn’t it a big deal!!! But what should I do? I was breathing!!”
Einar, who was aware of the ‘Hans education’ I gave to the barbarian, bit his nails nervously when he heard the hidden story.
“…It’s not sothing that can be done simply because of the mood.”
Like an explorer who believes in superstition, Mr. Bear also put on a puzzled expression.
And Raven…
“Yes? It’s not sothing that can be done just because of your mood, right?”
‘What bullshit is everyone talking about?’ I stayed still with a smile on my face and laughed out loud.
“Pu-wu-fu-ha-ha-ha!”
Is he a psychopath?
How can you laugh in this atmosphere?
“Looking at this, Mr. Yandel is also a barbarian.”
“It’s a racist statent.”
“Ah, I’m sorry if it sounded like that. But… Fu puhahaha! If you’re really worried, can you give a wizard’s protection?”
Sorcerer’s Protection?
Wasn’t there anything like that in the ga?
As I tilted my head, Raven explained calmly, like a child.
“When a wizard goes to a poorer neighborhood, the kids cling to him and pray for good luck. That’s the magician’s protection.”
……So you’re talking about divine protection?
“Not required.”
“Why? At least you can find stability?”
Raven, giggling, told about a study, saying he wasn’t joking.
If you strongly believe in sothing, does it affect your body?
It seems like you’re talking about a placebo effect…
What do you think of a barbarian?
“Do it.”
“Yes. Really? Oh, how did you do this? Would you like to lie down for a mont?”
As soon as I sat down on the floor, Raven put his hand on my shoulder alternately as if he were appointing as a knight with a rather reverent expression.
And he added an uncharacteristically warm word.
“All will be well. I have inherited my fortune.”
I don’t know about luck.
Still, a little bit of reason seems to co back.
If you think about it, it’s just a jinx after all.
Was Hans there when I t the dragon slayer?
“Oh really! Don’t you co to your senses? Mr. Yandel is the leader of our team!”
As Raven said, you need to be alert.
Even if the Hans effect is real, it is an established fact that it will et Hans’ body as long as it enters the crack.
I just have to be more careful than usual.
“ too!! too!!”
“Then I’ll be fine too…?”
“Keuheum, I’m begging you too.”
Perhaps because of my improved expression, my colleagues also gathered in front of Raven like baby birds.
“Haa… Okay. Let’s all stand in turn.”
Raven gave blessings to each and every one of them while sighing.
Was he like this?
I feel like I’ve peeked at an unexpected side.
“Then tell now. There’s no way that Mr. Yandel just killed him without any counterasures. You already know that, right? About that Hans or sothing.”
“To so extent.”
After the blessing, I had ti to share the information I knew.
What essence did Hans Krissen have?
And who are his co-workers?
“A fairy archer, a human warrior, and a wizard?”
“It was the last ti I saw it.”
“There are only four of us?”
“Now that we’ve entered the rift, it’s likely a five-man team now. They’ll probably put a deliverer in the remaining spot.”
The 4th floor rift opens on one of the stages above the 25th floor. It ans that without a guide, finding a rift before the garden is full is close to impossible.
“It’s definitely very likely.”
Afterwards, as I explained what I knew about his colleagues, Raven nodded as if relieved.
I seed to know what he was thinking.
Unless there has been a major change, Hans G’s team is clearly inferior to us.
“I don’t have to worry about them ssing around with the distribution.”
“We’ll have to play around.”
“When the situation cos. You don’t know anything about the other team yet, do you?”
The sharing of information about Hans’ team ended at this point and the exploration resud.
Fortunately, only our doppelganger continued to appear after the distance with him seed to have widened.
‘I wanted to find out about the rest of the team in advance.’
An unidentified team with no signs of overlapping traffic lines.
Even if I regret it, nothing will change.
“Oh! It’s a magic stone box again!”
We wandered around the cave all day, opening chests that popped up from ti to ti.
It was the main reward for the first chapter Shadow Cavern.
No matter how much you catch a doppelganger, it won’t spit out magic stones and essence.
It’s a way to strike a balance.
‘Still, it’s a bit strange.’
I thought it was just a system like this in the ga.
But when you experience it in real life, a sense of difference arises.
Is it supposed to be like a real ga?
[It’s a hypothesis that’s going around in academia these days, but there’s a story that they made the labyrinth instead of discovering it.]
Maybe what Raven said in the past might be true. If soone made it, it would explain the structure like this.
‘What is this world like in the first place?’
Is it a ga or is it really another world?
The questions I had from the first day I woke up in this body lingered in my head again, but as before, I folded them up and buried them in a corner again.
I still can’t co up with an answer from the clues I have.
It is unreasonable to lose one’s energy to useless work.
“It’s all open boxes now. Almost no doppelgangers. What are you going to do?”
“Didn’t you decide to make the decision here?”
I shrugged and handed over the decision to Raven.
After all, what he’s going to say is what I’m going to say.
“Well then, it would be better to rest here today and then get up and go to the very center.”
That’s right.
“The reason is?”
“There is a high possibility that other teams have already gathered in the very center. There’s no need to gather and camp, right?”
A wizard-like safety-oriented judgnt.
I particularly like the fact that distrust of others is the basis.
“Is there anything you want to say about my decision?”
“Not at all.”
“Hmm. His eyes look strange…”
“I was really lucky to have a wizard like you on the team.”
I an it.
He’ll never know how comfortable I am after he joined the team
. …Nothing cos out even if I shake my head.”
Sohow, my shoulders are already up to my ears.
After that, we simply finished preparing for camping and finished the 8th day by staying vigil in turn. The
9th day started like that.
[ 05 : 07]
Waking up a little earlier than usual, we headed to the very center of the cave.
There was nothing to get lost in. We
only stayed here because of the box, but the way to get there is very simple.
Follow the weedy passage . As we headed toward the center ,
there were more grass and moss on the wall, and before long a wide hollow appeared in
front
of
us
. Oh you are here! Mr. Yandel!” Oh
, of course,
Hans G was among them.
***
Did this one spend
the night here?
The team is as you guessed.’
All four of them were the sa explorers they had seen at the ti, as if there was no change of team mbers.
The woman I saw for the first ti over there must be a newcor.
‘The other side…’
I don’t know.
Composed of three dwarves, beastn, and humans.
The equipnt is It’s at a level similar to ours.
The singularity is that everyone has sensitive eyes.
In fact, considering the environnt of cracks, it’s not even a special part.
“Who’s the leader
there ?”
As soon as I did it, he was the one who gave a face for being late.
“Ah, maybe Mr. Yandel is the leader. The sa person I told you about last ti.”
“Little Balkan?”
“Yes, yes.”
Is it possible that we have already greeted each other?
Hans G said sothing to the dwarf and looked at and pretended to be friendly
. I hope I can et you here Hey, do you know how surprised I was when I t Mr. Yandel’s doppelganger?”
“Stop.”
“…Yes?”
“Stop coming closer.”
I lowered my voice and blocked Hans’s approach.
This distance is perfect for us.
It’s a world without masks, isn’t it?
“Dog tags?”
Soon after, he turned his attention away from Hans G and said to the dwarf.
But for so reason, Hans G answered back.
“Ah haha! I’ve confird it, so don’t worry—”
Yes?
That makes more anxious.
“Dog tag.” As
he recited it again, not listening to Hans’s words, the Dwarf smiled and demanded in reverse.
“You guys take it out first.”
Ki “Are you saying we’re going to fight?
I don’t really have any intention of avoiding it, but since identification was first, I took out the necklace and showed it.
“Then, it’s your turn.”
At my request, the Dwarves also took out the necklace so they could see it.
“Are you done?
” I nodded
.
Then, I heard Raven’s voice in my head. It’s
a telephony magic used when secretly conveying words.
[Mr. Yandel.]
Yes, you noticed it too
. They’re not people.]
They’re bastards from the underground.
