I Have Transferred to the Worst Labyrinth in Another World

56 – Distance to the Sun – 2

“I want it to be light and hard.”

“I see.”

“And I don’t want it to melt or get scratched by any flame.”

“Hmm… There are few such materials, but they do exist.”

“Next, the laser should come out from the center of the armor. The power of the laser is enough to destroy a city.”

“…Um?”

“And when the opponent attacks, it must have the effect of reflecting 100% damage.”

“Now..Wait a minute…!”

“Next…”

Grandpa Dwarf started to notice that something was wrong, but by then it was too late.

“Oh, and the most important thing is to have enough durability to be unblemished even when attacked by Hubert and the Emperor, who are the top 4 on the continent…”

“Are you kidding me right now? Armor like that doesn’t exist in this world!”

In the end, the dwarf grandpa cut off my words and came in, just like his son’s wife.

“Didn’t you say everything was fine?”

“Isn’t there such a thing as a minimum of common sense?!”

“That sounds like common sense enough…?”

Are you sure you set it as low as possible?

Originally, I was going to say that it would be nice if Won Ki-ok would go out, but I lowered it to Magic Tournament Spray, and lowered it from 500% damage reflection to 100%…

-…King…

‘Oh okay. I’ll stop playing around.’

Of course, I know very well that this kind of request will not be accepted.

But don’t you know? Even if it’s not to the extent of scattering demons, can you give me a megax slug laser gun?

“I’m sorry, please order normally..!”

“Hmm…Then…”

Actually, there were only three options I wanted.

“Then, please make me armor that is light, has strong physical defense, and has very high fire resistance.”

“…Honestly, this is a pretty outrageous request, but if you have enough money, it’s close enough.”

The dwarf grandpa sighed heavily and scratched his head.

“Instead, the price will be exorbitant. Would that be okay?”

“The emperor will pay it anyway.”

“….You’re a bold guy…Then come back to me in a few weeks or so. I’ll make it within a month.”

“Okay.”

“Then get out quickly!”

You make me so sad.

“Get out quickly!!”

“Yes yes.”

That’s how I left Alberto’s forge, listening to the dwarf grandpa’s screams.

Won’t you make your armor look weird just because you’re telling the truth?

-Alberto Forge is a place where only those who are proud of being artisans gather. No matter how bad a customer is, they never make a mess.

‘Then it’s fortunate.’

You can trust Veronica’s words.

“The commissioning is over… It’s just a pity to go back.”

I don’t have anything to do now, but it was a pity to just go back.

It is the capital of the strongest country in the Central Continent in its own way, but wouldn’t there be one or two interesting things?

-It’s something the king would be interested in….That’s really difficult.

‘There is one… But…’

-That’s absolutely not possible.

‘…..’

-Before that, it will not operate at this time.

Cabi.

***

The street of the sun located in Eos, the capital of the empire.

There was one street that was directly opposite the distance of the sun, and that was the distance of the moon.

The Street of the Moon was a dark street mostly inhabited by the poor and criminal organizations, as opposed to the Street of the Sun, where the wealthy lived.

“Are you here?”

The basement of an old tavern located on the street of the moon.

There, four men and one woman were sitting at a round table and talking.

“Everyone report this month’s achievements.”

“””Yes”””

A man who appeared to be the leader of the five started listening to the report from the four while sitting in a chair.

“In the case of the entertainment district, it’s running without a big problem. It’s a bit of a hassle when the guards come in and out, but they just turn a blind eye to me when I throw in a woman.”

“The drug cartel is also growing slowly. In a year or so, most of the people on Lunar Street will not be able to live without drugs.”

“The arena is no problem.”

“The top of the weapon is no problem.”

“…I see.”

The man who is the head of this seat listened to the reports of all four people and opened his mouth slowly while tapping the handle of his chair.

“…Looks like we need to broaden the scope.”

“…That means…”

“Yes, I will reach out to the street of the sun.”

A momentary silence came over the man’s remarks.

The reason they were able to do so without noticing the crime was only possible because they were active only on the streets of the moon.

If they had established a criminal organization on the street from the beginning, it would have been rooted out by the guards in less than a week.

“Is it okay…? No matter how far the sun is…”

“No, we’ve developed enough strength up until now. Now we’ve grown enough to take revenge on the nobles who ignored us.”

The man slammed his fist into the table.

Then the table started to crack, and soon it was completely smashed, and the remains of the table fell to the ground.

“…Now it’s time to eat the streets of the sun.”

The man stepped on the fragments of the broken table with his feet, his eyes burning.

***

“Ohh…But isn’t that magic?”

-That’s right.

After I left Alberto’s forge, I decided to wander the streets of the sun.

Even though it was early in the morning, there were many street performances around, and what I was watching was a magic show that turned a blue ball into a red one.

-It seems to be that man’s unique ability.

“Inherent magic to change color…Something like that.”

-No, it seems to be an ability that simply refracts light to make colors look different.

“It’s useless.”

-It’s useless, but most commoners have non-combat abilities like the guy performing there. It is common for those with combat abilities to become knights.

“Hmm…”

Is it possible to survive in a world like this without any fighting skills?

If you pass by and meet a monster like a fragment of chaos or mixed flame, you’ll die right away.

-Isn’t chaos fragments and confusion only applicable to kings?

“It’s just an example. You can actually meet monsters over level 90, right?”

For reference, I met 5 monsters (Veronica, Arnold, Grace, Hubert, and Horn Flame) that were level 90 or higher in less than a month after I was transferred to another world.

-It’s hard to find monsters over level 50 unless you’re in a place like the 5 labyrinths. If there is one, most of them are the rulers of a region.

“What am I?”

-Haven’t you ever met a level 90 or higher monster except for mixed flames?

“…Is that so?”

Coming to think of it, most of the level 90 or higher I’ve met so far have been humans, not monsters.

Arnold the Beast King, Grace the Emperor, Hubert the bastard, and our Veronica Nunna.

…Maybe a level 90 or higher monster would be better…?

-I’ll exclude you.

“Okay. I’ll consider it.”

-……

Still, among those above level 90, Veronica seems to be the most normal.

As expected, the older people get, the more serious they become…

“Huh?!”

At that moment, an invisible mass of magic hit my stomach.

‘What..! How did you hit me…!’

Usually, Veronica would have hit me with the black mist, but this time, perhaps because there were many people around, she used a mass of pure magic power to hit me.

Of course, the pain was still there.

-Aren’t you supposed to learn at this level?

“hehehe…Before that, there is no one in this world who can control what he thinks as he pleases?!”

-Then the king can do the first.

f*ck.

“Ugh…My stomach…It really hurts.”

Isn’t it okay to use [Purity]?

“The last time I used it, it hit me again.”

-You remember this well.

It’s because it’s so bad that I can’t help but remember it.

While I was caressing my painful stomach, a young child suddenly ran past me.

The child was wearing old clothes that were torn in every corner, and his bones were bare all over his body, as if he hadn’t eaten for a long time.

“You bastard! Can’t stop right now!”

At that moment, in the direction the scruffy-looking child ran, a middle-aged man with a rather chubby physique was chasing after his child with veins on his face.

“Can’t you put things back right away?!”

The man blended into the crowd and started looking for the hidden child, but the child had already disappeared.

“Aww…! You bastard thieves! Why are there so many of them lately?!”

In the end, the chubby middle-aged man gave up looking for the child and ran back in the direction he had come.

“Maybe it was a thief.”

-I guess so.

“Your uncle is having a hard time too.”

Of course, it has nothing to do with me.

Growl…

“..I’m hungry.”

-I haven’t eaten anything other than the strange skewers I ate before, so I’m starving.

“…But Veronica, is it okay if you don’t eat? I don’t think I’ve ever seen you eat anything before.”

Veronica always hides in the shadows except when I’m showering or going to the bathroom.

In other words, she had no time to eat or sleep.

Then how did Veronica solve sleep and hunger so far?

– Vampires get full even if they eat blood instead of food. In the case of sleep, only 3 hours of sleep per month is enough.

“Well then, sleep aside…You’ve never drank blood before, have you?”

She’d been with Veronica for a week and had never seen her drink her blood with her own eyes.

Or do you secretly go out and suck blood while I’m sleeping?

-Have you ever drank?

“When?”

-Have you forgotten? Didn’t you drink the king’s blood the day you first met him?

“…..”

Come to think of it, when Veronica first met me, she forcibly restrained her body and then stuck her teeth into her neck to covet my blood.

But it must have been quite a while since that day?

-Vampires can live normally without eating for a while, depending on who they drink the blood of.

“…So if you drink my blood once, you’ll be fine for a week?”

-I think it would be okay if I didn’t eat anything for a year, let alone a week.

Crazy, what super-enriched nutrient is my blood? Drink once and last a year.

-It’s because the royal blood is special.

“What’s so special about my blood?”

Oh come to think of it, it seems to have an aphrodisiac function.

As soon as that great Veronica drank my blood, she spat out a lot of dirty moans.

-What should I do with the king’s blood? My body heats up just by drinking and I want something…

“Stop, I don’t need to explain in detail, can you please stop?”

-Let’s do that.

After that, I started looking for a restaurant where I could have a decent lunch while chatting as usual with Veronica.

After wandering around for about 10 minutes, I was able to find a restaurant I liked.

It was a tavern using the unnecessarily magnificent name of the Milky Way of Starlight.

– A tavern? Are you thinking of drinking in the morning?

“No, there are many cases where the food served at such taverns is really delicious.”

-Isn’t that a story from a fantasy novel the king saw?

“…I won’t deny it.”

Actually, when I wanted to drink, let alone pubs in Korea, I only went to Samgyeopsal restaurants.

But because it was the best value for money, I had no choice but to do it every time.

At that time, I was nothing more than a poor college student without money, nothing less.

Jallang…

I entered the tavern cautiously.

Then, a bar with round tables and wooden chairs spread out in front of me, as if it would come out of a fantasy game.

At the counter, a man in his early twenties was sitting on a chair and looking at me.

“What is it? Customer? It’s still morning, so it won’t be alcohol… Are you here for dinner?”

“Yes. It’s a bar. Does it serve lunch?”

“Of course. These days, I can’t make money selling only at night. Sit at a table roughly anywhere.”

Following the man’s words, I took a seat at a table in a corner.

Then a man came up to me and asked.

“What’s on the menu?”

“What do you have?”

“Tomato soup… Creamy grilled fish, oh yes. Today’s newly caught marinated grilled pork.”

“…….Cream grilled fish, please.”

“Yes.”

Originally, I prefer pork to fish, but the shock of the black seasoned meat skewers I had before hadn’t gone away yet, so I ordered the grilled fish.

“Here’s a grilled fish in cream~”

The man went back to the counter, shouting loudly as if the cook in the kitchen could hear him.

‘Hygiene looks better than I thought.’

-Isn’t it natural that restaurant cleanliness is directly related to profits?

‘Still, it’s a medieval fantasy world.’

It is said that Europe in the 16th century just dumped feces on the street, but this world had a fairly clean environment despite the medieval worldview.

-It’s simply because it’s a pub on the street of the sun. Most of the taverns on the streets of the moon, where slums are gathered, are full of dirt because they haven’t been cleaned for a year.

‘…If it’s a pub near the slums…’

At that time, I agreed with Veronica’s words.

About 10 people wearing black masks opened the tavern door roughly and began to enter.

“What..? Who are you guys?”

The man at the counter could not hide his embarrassment and glared at those wearing black masks with wary eyes.

“Are you the owner of this tavern?”

“…That’s right, why?”

A man who appeared to be the leader among the black masks walked forward and approached the man at the counter.

Then the man at the counter glanced at him with his eyes narrowed.

“I’ll buy this tavern. 50 Gold will suffice, right?”

“…Are you kidding me? It’s a bar that sells 300 gold coins even if you sell it in a hurry, so you want to sell it for 50 gold coins? Besides, this is a building that has been passed down from generation to generation. I have no intention of selling it to you guys.”

“Haa…You’re dragging things around.”

At that moment, the guys wearing black masks drew swords from their waists all at once.

“J..What are you doing..! Get the guards..!”

“No, you’ll be dead before the guards arrive. Let’s treat the cause of death as an accident.”

“What kind of craziness…!!”

A man in a black mask thrust a large longsword into the tavern floor and gave orders to his men.

“Kill him. And the chef in the kitchen.”

“…But Captain, there are customers over there…?”

“Hmm…?”

At that moment, I met the eyes of a man in a black mask who turned his head and looked at me sitting at a table in the corner.

Hello?

“Oops… I thought there wouldn’t be any customers because it was daytime, but there was one.”

“What should I do?”

“…Kill him. That man should be treated as an accidental death.”

I was having a lot of fun watching it, but before I knew it, I also became a target.

But come to think of it, wouldn’t the speed at which my grilled fish comes out slow if these bastards are like this? I’m starving to death now.

“Hey, I feel sorry for you, but blame yourself for coming to the bar from lunchtime to eat. Kihehehe…”

“Hmm…”

I can’t.

Because I need to eat first…

-Don’t kill me. Are you tired of work?

‘Okay.’

I overheard Veronica’s warning and slowly got up from my chair.

‘Then, shall we do a simple pre-meal exercise?’
