There too
There are only cuties (?), Right?
Average level 20?
If this is enough for a fantasy game, isn’t it a beginner’s zone?
If I transferred to the upper floors, I would have been really comfortable…
“Wind Spear.”
-Goooh..!
A labyrinth full of monsters like pudding (?) That can die from a single blow of the wind spear, isn’t this level safer than the crosswalks in Seoul?
“Let’s see…”
Once I opened the map, I checked the upper structure.
If you look at the terrain structure around me, the upper area where I am located is the upper area of the labyrinth of the abyss located in the central continent.
If you go through the exit, it seems that you will find a country with the country name Leonhardt’s Nation.
“Suin country…?”
Could this be the ‘prisoner’ country I know?
A race in human form with animal ears and tails that are no different from a fantasy world.
I actually like animals, so if a beastman actually exists, I want to see it.
-Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!
“Hmm?”
At that moment, a voice presumed to be a woman was heard from a distance.
What is it? I see you screaming, should I help you?
But do you usually scream ‘ouch, hurt, hurt’?
Ah! Are you a monster? Yes, it’s definitely a fantasy world, so there are monsters that can imitate women’s voices!
………
‘…But should I check?’
“[Psychokinesis]”
– Woo woo woo woo…
I used telekinesis to lift myself into the air. Then it started flying at high speed in the direction from which the scream was heard.
-Ah..aaa!!!!! Help me!! Please…Please save me!! If there is anyone, save me!!!
The woman’s screams got closer and closer.
I have never heard such a earnest voice in my life.
Aren’t they really monsters?
After about 30 seconds of flight, I saw a beautiful, bobbed orange haired woman sitting on the ground with dead eyes.
She had cute cat ears sticking out on top of her short-haired woman’s head.
‘Crazy, aren’t you a real prisoner?’
I used my emotions on a woman who fell on the floor with her eyes shining.

[You have reached Appraisal LV 4.]
[LV 41 Eli Van Leonhardt]
HP: 6367/6367
Mana: 4125/4125
-Status: Curse of the Abyss LV 4
Emotion has finally reached level 4.
Is the status displayed now?
“Haaah..! Please…Save me aaa…!”
“What is the child? Where is the sick child?”
‘Are you afraid of hell worms crawling on the ground at level 41? Anyway, why are there so many hell worms here?’
“Ah… You bastard beetles are so annoying I’m going to search! Get lost! It’s a moving moment to meet people after a long time, but I’m ticking the candles.”
-Roar!
The hellish worms that were crawling around kept bothering me, so I burned them all with the flame of Suzaku.
Huh, now I feel more comfortable.
“Hmm…Hey?”
“Ah..! Sa.. Saved me…”
“Hmm, do you have a mental problem?”
I’m not a psychiatrist, so I can’t treat things like this…
“…The curse of the abyss?”
In the meantime, through my emotions, I realized that the woman was under a curse spell called [Curse of the Abyss LV 4].
‘Is this the cause of my mental problems?’
I was troubled.
Most of the abilities I currently have are combat-related abilities.
In other words, I don’t have the ability to cure this woman’s curse.
“Ah…I do have one.”
But when I thought about it, there was one new ability that I hadn’t been able to get until recently.
That’s [Innocence].
It was a special unique ability with a unique effect of reversing the target’s state.
“Will it work? You’ll know when you try it.”
Are there any side effects?…..I don’t know, once you use it, you’ll know.
“[Purity].”
Chwaaa-
When I used [Purity], Almost a third of the mana disappeared and the woman’s condition gradually began to improve.
First of all, the [Curse of the Abyss LV 4] Written on the status window has been changed to ‘None’.
In addition, light came into the woman’s dead dynamic eyes and began to come alive.
“Heo-eok-!”
“It’s a surprise.”
After about 10 seconds or so, the woman raised her head, letting out a gasping sound.
Anyway, the treatment seems to have been successful.
“Are you okay?”
“This…Human…?!”
“Once you’re human, but…”
“Heuk!”
A woman named Ellie didn’t even thank me for the treatment and as soon as she came to her senses, she threw her fist at me.
You’re saying that you shouldn’t help me carelessly like this? Kids these days don’t know how to thank you.
‘It’s pretty fast anyway? Compared to level 41 monsters, it’s much faster.’
‘Of course’, it’s fast by the standards of level 41 monsters.
Tak-!
“What?!”
I yawned as I briefly caught Ellie’s fist with her right hand.
“End?”
“Hey!”
Ellie continued to swing her fist at me as I yawned mockingly.
Shhh-! Shhh-!
“Why…It doesn’t fit…!”
“If you ask me that… Just calm down…”
“Haaap-!”
At that moment, Ellie’s fists began to turn red. She seemed to be gathering mana.
“Ohhh… Abilities? Or magic?”
“Shut up! Lion’s Claw!”
“I don’t know who came up with the technical name, but I did it roughly.”
I grinned as I dodged Ellie’s fists that spewed ferocious mana.
Ellie started to dye her face red as if that appearance irritated Ellie more.
“I’ll kill you!”
“Oh, I’m scared.”
Ellie started gnashing her teeth and expelling red mana from all over her body.
[LV 41 Eli Van Leonhardt]
HP: 6367/6367
Mana: 3425/4125
-Status: None
Looking at it through emotion, that red mana seemed to have the effect of strengthening the body by continuously using mana.
Of course, he was slower than me even after strengthening his body, and his power was weak.
“Ugh! How high is your level?!”
“Um… Lower than you.”
“Don’t lie!”
No, it’s true, but what can I say…
My level is 40, Ellie’s level is 41
Even though it was a level difference, Ellie’s level was definitely higher than mine.
‘It’s a nuisance, so I need to subdue it quickly.’
I took out a dagger from my bosom and tried to subdue Ellie.
But Ellie’s appearance was a bit strange.
“You…You…You are…You are!!!!!”
“Eh..?”
‘What is it? Why are you so angry?’
As soon as I pulled out her dagger, Ellie pounced on me in such rage that she couldn’t breathe properly.
“Die, die, die, die!”
“No f*ck…”
I chanted the lowest wind elemental magic wave at Ellie, who was attacking her while she lost her sanity.
“Wait!”
“Ouch?!
-Perong!
Thanks to Ellie concentrating all her nerves on her attack, she hit the wall straight through her pulse.
“Seriously, why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
I asked Ellie, who was gagging while holding on to her stomach, which had been hit by her waves.
Then Ellie glared at me with eyes like a wounded beast and answered.
“Why are you doing that?! You still don’t know what you’ve done?!”
Sorry, I have no idea?
“How dare you kill Aldre’s brother?! I will definitely kill you with my own hands!!!”
“Wait a minute.”
What the f*ck now? Am I a good citizen who never killed anyone?
“Who is Aldre’s brother?”
“To say such a shameless thing after killing him with his own hands…!”
“No, I really don’t know? How do you know I killed you before then?”
“That dagger! I’m sure you killed Aldre’s brother and robbed him!”
A dagger? Are you referring to the remains buried in the corner of the middle floor?
“Ah…That ashes must have been your brother Aldren.”
“Don’t call your brother’s name carelessly!!”
Ellie rushed at me, emitting a thicker red mana.
Of course, she had no intention of accepting Ellie’s attack, so she forcibly stopped Ellie using [Psychokinesis].
“What?! What is this!”
“Stay in that state for a moment, calm your mind.”
I slowly approached Ellie, who was suspended by her telekinesis.
“I’m sorry but I never killed your brother?”
“Lies! That dagger is definitely Aldre’s brother’s dagger!”
“No, I didn’t know that I picked it up too?”
“I picked it up…?”
“Are you willing to listen now?”
After that, I told Ellie the story of finding the remains of the dagger’s owner in the middle layer. Then Ellie screamed in disbelief at first, but then she burst into tears.
“Lie…Come…Bunny…Is he really dead..?”
“Maybe?”
“Huhhhhh…”
I quietly canceled the [Psychokinesis] Ability, and Ellie sat down and began to sob.
“Older brother…Huh…..Older Aldre…Huh!!”
“Hmm…”
What? I don’t know how to soothe a crying woman What are you doing?
When I was on Earth, I had a history of begging my best friend to calm down a girl who cried when she was drunk.
“Uh…Um…Yes…No…Um…”
“Ahhh…!”
Stop crying, damn it.
***
“So, when will the Beast King be allowed to enter the country?”
Irina was very nervous right now.
This is because the Beast King has not allowed Irina to enter the country for two days already.
“Wait, it looks like the problem has been resolved. A message will come soon.”
“Haa…”
Irina felt a lot of stress from the fortress captain who showed a smirk.
She was Irina who wanted to use the interception magic to blow off the captain’s head, but in that case the plan she designed would go awry, so Irina showed her superhuman patience.
“Captain! A message from the capital!”
“Huh? Give it to me.”
At that time, the prisoner captain and the soldier started talking on top of the fortress.
It seems the order has been sent from the capital.
“Imperial delegation has been allowed to enter! Open the door!”
The captain opened the gate of the fortress with a disapproving look on his face.
“Haa…I finally get to see the face of the handsome Beast King.”
“If I meet the Beast King, I will shout myself…”
“If you don’t want to waste your life, do it. Maybe even if the Beast King kills you in front of everyone, no one will notice. Is that okay?”
“…No…”
The beast king was one of the members of the four continental powers, like the emperor of the empire.
Obviously, if the beast king puts his mind to it, he will be able to annihilate the imperial envoys in a short time of less than 5 seconds.
“By the way, may I ask what the problem was with the Imperial envoys being treated this way?”
Irina asked the fortress captain with a twisted expression.
Then the fort captain replied in a disapproving tone.
“Did I know? From what I’ve heard, it sounds like the king’s family situation…”
“Go…Home situation..?”
Irina thought.
‘Is the family situation more important than the war, the Beast King?!’
In her head, Irina corrected the score of the Beast King to 7 points.
For reference, Irina’s score was based on a 100-point scale.
