264 – Dungeons and Nymphs: A Nymph’s Journey # 7

Devil.

In some ways, they were better known than fairies such as elves and nymphs.

A vicious being who torments people, turns their lives into an abyss, and delights in the pain of others.

That was the devil.

「A room you can’t leave unless the number is odd」

Looking at the rules of the new room, I realized again that this Demon Castle is a hellish place where demons lurk.

It was a truly terrible rule.

“You have to be an odd number to get out. “It’s a terrible rule.”

Me and Yuari.

Two people.

We were even.

It also meant that one person had to disappear in order for us to become an odd number.

“I guess it means that only one person who survives the fight can escape from this room.”

This room was equipped with swords, maces, shields, etc.

They were covered in blood and looked like someone had used them.

There must have been an ‘odd number’ of people in this room.

Did the devils play with the hostages they took in the pilgrim village like this?

“Cowardly devils.”

I trembled, feeling unbearable anger. Unlike elves, nymphs, and Amazons, the coexistence of demons and humans seemed impossible.

Yuari said.

“I guess I have no choice but to choose.”

Slurrr-.

Soon the hair on the back of my neck stood up.

It was safe to say that the intense tension was on my nerves.

The ‘choice’ that Ari speaks of may have many meanings.

Only odd numbers can survive.

For a moment, I thought of Ari and I fighting.

Now that there is no Kungkkungi, Angangi, or Bangkungi, if 100 is 100, I will lose them all.

But-.

Ari spoke calmly.

“Be sure to go outside. “I will also try to become an S ranker.”

“…… !”

I could sense that Ari was trying to get me out.

And this was a very big shock to me.

“Why? “You’re going to send me out?”

“I promised you. As for Mr. Ildo, no matter what happens, I will make sure to return him home safely. “The world needs more brilliant heroes like Il-il than people like me.”

Ari’s decision seemed real.

You are even willing to die to let me go.

This reminded me of Kang Cheol-min, who risked his life and held out his hand to the control device of a nuclear reactor whose core was collapsing.

And it was also a moment that reminded me of myself fighting the “Superconducting dragon” And jumping towards it without hesitation and sacrificing my life to save people.

“Someone said it. The duty of an awakened person is to protect good and innocent people. And that even good deeds that no one seems to recognize can one day be rewarded.”

“But….”

“Instead, please remember me. Forever.”

Saying that, Ari pulled out a sword and held it out to me.

I closed my eyes tightly.

Is it okay to fall into the devil’s trap like this?

According to Kira’s MeTube, demon-type monsters are good at deception!

Deception.

Perhaps even with such an odd number, there was no guarantee that the door would open. I didn’t know that in the next room, there might be another “Room where you have to have an even number to get out.”

Is it okay to be swayed like this?

Swing -.

Just like a cat that was surrounded by females, being swayed around and suffering….

Kkeongkeongi….

Female and male… !?

“Ah!”

Pajijik-!

At that time, something passed through my head.

Yes.

There was more than just one way to get an odd number!

“From now on, listen carefully to what I say. We are unlucky, but I don’t think we can just say that we are unlucky. “There is more than one way to get an odd number.”

“Yes?”

“I am male and you are female. Well, I’m really sorry to have to say this, and you may misunderstand or be disappointed, but… That… Men and women have numbers… “You might get called.”

Although I spoke with great enthusiasm, my face was hot and my heart was pounding.

I couldn’t even understand what I was saying.

Ari said.

“Are you saying we want to increase the number by addition instead of subtraction?”

“Yes. I’m not sure if it will work or not, but isn’t it better to do something than lose your life? Of course, it may be more shameful than dying, but….”

As I said, it was a dizzying moment in many ways.

It would not have been surprising if the news featured the following: “The famous awakened man, Haildo, did something mean to his female junior!”

Push profit profit-.

At that time, boiling steam was billowing out from the part of the helmet Ari was wearing that looked like a water purifier.

“Wow wow wow…” !”

Ari shouts as if he is very embarrassed.

“Well, I hadn’t even thought of that method… ! If Mr. Lee Il-do really thinks he needs to do that, then Il-do… I think it’s worth the challenge… ! That… I don’t know… !”

Swish-.

It was Yua Lee, hiding her face by holding on to her mask with both hands.

“But, that, that… It’s my first time… ! And Chae… You have to take responsibility… ! Never… !”

“Me too… It’s my first time…. And responsibility is unconditional….”

In many ways, I also wanted to cover my face and hide.

If there was a mouse hole, I felt like I wanted to go in.

Is there a mouse hole with a hidden hint in this room like the last room?

“No, wait a minute.”

Rat hole.

I felt like lightning flashed through my head.

There was a rat hole in the last room.

There was a hint in it.

These walls were generally very strong, so they must have been strong enough for Ari and I to hit them with our fists without any damage.

But why was there a mouse hole in the last room?

“Oh.”

I looked at the walls again with the feeling that I realized something!

# # #

Yuari’s eyes were spinning before his eyes.

The sound of my heart was so loud that I thought it would echo outside.

Chwiik-.

The suit’s temperature control function continued to emit steam to cool Yuari’s body temperature.

‘I can’t believe I have an odd number with my senior! Add, not subtract! No, to be precise, I would add and subtract… !’

Yua Lee was wearing a mask, so she felt very fortunate.

Because you don’t have to show the other person what kind of expression you are making right now.

However, Haildo stood up, put his nose to the wall, and sniffed.

“What are you doing? Uh… Let’s quickly add… ! Make it an odd number… !”

“No. Maybe there’s no need to do that. “I think some of these walls are soft enough that we can break them down.”

“Nehe?”

Ari was slightly embarrassed.

What is that man talking about?

“There is a soft spot on the wall. “I searched around, but I couldn’t find a place like that.”

“No. There definitely is. Maybe here…. There is a smell from this area. “The smell of this part is definitely different from other places.”

Zek-.

When Hyildo hit a wall with his fist, the stone wall collapsed.

“Look. “It’s real, right?”

Yuari was surprised.

‘Even I couldn’t see through that? Are you saying that your sense of work has become so great that it surpasses my super sense? It’s really amazing. It’s really great, but….’

Yuari was very happy with Haildo’s growth and performance, but at the same time, she was disappointed and angry. I felt like I was going to fall apart.

It was Yuari who puffed out her cheeks and sulked, but Haildo, who could not read Yuari’s expression, which was covered by her mask, laughed very brightly and shouted.

“I think I can escape even if I don’t have an odd number! Here, if we break it down a little more! I think it will collapse if I destroy this place…. “Inhale!”

Qarring-! Clattering-!

A collapsed wall.

Haildo was impressed by that fact.

“Really, as the doctor said, there is something called ‘weakness’ in all things in the world! “Seeing the wind coming in and out, it seems clear that it is a passageway to the outside!”

“… ….”

Haildo smashed the wall with his hands and feet, widening the hole even further.

The hallway that was revealed like that.

In front of it was full of iron bars and people were seen trapped inside them.

━Whoo, whoo… !

There was also one trapped owl.

It was a Bonbong Kalinoi, a very large tiger owl.

“Kalinoi! And next to him—little Jihoo! There are a lot of other people trapped too! “Are they perhaps hostages taken from the pilgrim village?”

“Ah, man… !”

Haildo ran to the iron cage.

After Yua Li opened her narrow eyes behind the mask, she took the sword in her hand and went outside to cut down the iron bars.

Shashak-.

The iron gate was easily split and the trapped owl and little boy escaped.

“Kalinoi, Lee Ji-hoo! Do you know how hard it was to find you guys?”

Haildo hugged the owl and the little boy.

As Yua-ri looked at that scene, she had many things she wanted to say, but she quickly burst out laughing.

It was because I thought that kind of thing suited a male Haildo.

Sumchat-.

At that time, Yuari’s neck rang loudly.

Kwaaang-!

A prison shaking with a loud explosion.

Someone appeared between the melted walls.

“Haildo, were you doing this here?”

It was Seo Ye-rim holding a strange stick. It was black and pointed and looked like a spear, but it seemed like an object with strong magical power.

When Yuari judged that it was at least a “National treasure-level artifact,” The nymphs raised their hands and ran towards Hyildo.

“The owner of the house has been found… !”

“It’s nice to meet you…” !”

Yuari let out a small sigh as the atmosphere suddenly became noisy.

Soon, Seo Ye-rim approached Yu-ari Yu and asked.

“Nothing happened, right? Well, maybe something special happened? Rather, haven’t you seen the demon lord who escaped here? This is the guy who ran away, leaving only his tail behind. “I don’t know where or what they’re doing, but I think it’s best to catch them quickly.”

Zek-.

Seo Ye-rim aimed the devil’s tail here and there.

Then her tail pointed in different directions as if it were a compass needle.

“Where the tip of this tail points is the Demon Lord Barbatos.”

Before we knew it, the noisy group of people joined in and roamed around the Demon King’s Castle.

And finally, Imp Burbur appeared and blocked their path.

“You can’t even take a single step towards Zuyin…” ! Burbur, the imp of this bonfire, is going to protect you… ! Imp big, breathing fire… !”

Grumbling-.

Imp Burbur breathing fire.

Of course, the nymphs say, “「Nymph-big-gi, spouting water」… I used !” To blow away Imp Burbour.

Imp Burbur fell to the floor, very wet.

“Hey… ! It’s too cold… !”

“A nymph with a tail… ! Even if you look again, you will be severely disgusted… ! This is something that goes against the rules of the world… ! I want to hit you hard… !”

“The idea is to pull out the tail…” ! It is clear that if you pull it, the tail will be pulled out… ! If the tail is pulled out, they may become nymph sisters… !”

The nymphs pounced on Imp Burbour and pulled the tail attached to his buttocks.

Immediately, Imp Burbour cried and shouted.

“Hey… ! Burbur’s tail is a precious gift from Zuin… ! They say you shouldn’t pull it out… ! If that’s the case, then you’re no different from a nymph without a tail… !”

Although Burbur was struggling, he could not withstand the two angry nymphs.

Will the tail end like this?

As everyone looked on in suspense, someone appeared at the end of the hallway.

“Tch, stop! “Your opponent is not that little imp, it’s me!”

It was a woman with horns on her head.

She was very small in size and similar to her nymphs Illinois or Oinoi.

Her face also looked like that of a young girl.

Seo Ye-rim frowned as she saw that.

“The devil? But she’s much more… It got smaller, right? “Is it because this tail was pulled out?”

Demon King Barbatos.

She looked as small as a small nymph.

She resembled a nymph, except that she had horns on her head, and Oi Noi raised her hands as if she felt something about her.

“Ah! It feels similar to her nymph sisters… !”

“That’s right. Because we imps were originally one of the fairies or spirits of nature. Before I knew it, I was being called the devil…. Could you please listen to my story for a moment? ?”

Demon Lord Barbatos’ expression was serious.

She looked somewhat pathetic.

“We were originally little fairies. However, the faith of light came in and began to drive us out and reject us, and we became devils with a tail. We were originally good too….”

“Jjuyin… ! I’m telling you to run away… !”

Demon King Barbatos and Little Imp Burbur hugged each other.

“A victim who became a perpetrator?”

Illinois said as the tip of the man’s nose twitched as he watched the imps hugging each other affectionately.

“Why are you suddenly trying to jump into a new drama?” ? Illinois cannot tolerate a movement in which a villain tries to stimulate sympathy with a novel. !”

“Because Oinoi is also a warrior, he does not talk or compromise with evil… ! In that sense, let’s beat up the bad devil… !”

“Of Calls… ! America and Illinois will not negotiate with terrorists under any circumstances… ! The idea is to take revenge on the Twin Towers… !”

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo.

“aaah~”

“Hey… !”

The Demon King and his subordinate Imp Burbur were captured like that.

We headed to the pilgrim village with the captured hostages and the captured demon king, and the villagers who were waiting for us were all so shocked that they could not keep their mouths shut.

“I have captured the devil, the devil!”

“We are free… ! Now you can be released… !”
