Dungeon Monsters Keep Offering Sacrifices

21 – Lieutenant Celia’s Loyalty

I enjoyed my leisure time drinking coffee at the cafe.

The game screen was working hard on the smartphone in my hand.

– Celia was dispatched to the goblin shaman’s dungeon.

There was one thing I felt while playing this game so far.

Celia was certainly a capable being.

‘I guess this also depends on her adjutant’s abilities?’

She developed the dungeon on her own even if she left the game unattended.

She even increased the number of monsters placed in the dungeon.

‘Good job setting Celia as her lieutenant.’

No matter how much of a game it is, if you don’t like a lieutenant who works so hard, who will you like?

“I’m sure you’ll handle this mission well.”

The content I played this time was sending support to another dungeon. And I sent Celia there.

The place where support was sent was close to the mountain range where my dungeon is located.

There was a reason for choosing a dungeon in a nearby area.

‘We need to know what kind of guys will attack us in the future.’

A user who plays a game like this must have thorough knowledge of the information.

Because then you can deal with any situation.

My current dungeon location was in the mountains of the Kingdom of Seil. At the same time, it was adjacent to the demon world.

But a nearby dungeon asks for help?

It meant that something had happened in this area.

As a neighbor who built a nest called a dungeon in the same district, I, of course, had to know what it was.

“Let’s eat some cake while we wait.”

After putting my smartphone on the table, I turned my attention to the cake.

Celia, my most trustworthy lieutenant.

Since she was dispatched, her results were obvious even without looking.

What would it be like to have such capable subordinates?

Wouldn’t it be nice to at least not have to worry about everything?

Thing-

Sure enough, an alarm went off right away.

– Celia is talking to the owner of the dungeon.

‘That’s right.’

My strategy will vary depending on what story comes out of there.

Now, dig up the information about why you asked for help.

Celia, you can do it!

-The owner of the dungeon bowed to Celia on her knees.

Huh? What is this situation now?

– The dungeon owner, ‘Goblin Shaman’, surrendered to Celia.

– Congratulations! Successfully conquered the goblin shaman’s dungeon.

– 1 Goblin Shaman and 14 Goblins belong to the dungeon ‘Evil God’s Nest’.

No, what does this mean?

Didn’t you go to apply for the dungeon?

I was clearly dispatched to help, but what should I do if I do that?

In reality, what I was doing was not support but conquest?

I checked again just in case, and the dungeon support was correct.

It was instantly transformed from content to help other dungeons to content to increase my dungeon power.

“Was this the original image?”

The Celia I had in mind was intelligent and obedient.

Ah, is this how her father feels when he sees his daughter entering puberty?

Well, that can happen.

Sometimes there has to be something like that.

If your mind is too consistent, it won’t be fun.

This anomalous event may have made her character, Celia, stand out in three dimensions.

I understand because Celia has done well so far.

You should not go too straight in one direction.

‘Well, if you say you have an upright mentality, you’re a Death Knight.’

Death Knight obtained as the first 5 star in the lottery.

After that, what can I say about Death Knight?

Although he had no presence, he had a strong image of silently defending the dungeon.

He is probably still quietly guarding the dungeon.

Thing-

– Death Knight succeeded in conquering the dungeon ‘Giant Spider Hatchery’.

– Six giant tarantulas belong to the dungeon ‘Evil God’s Nest’.

“… ….”

Ha… what.

From noble mtl dot com

Now that I see it, I guess I wasn’t keeping up with the game.

Death Knight Why didn’t this guy protect the dungeon and come out?

Even if the restrictions were lifted and I could come out of the dungeon, I have never given such an order.

At least I personally had Celia dispatched.

Death Knight was leaving the dungeon without permission and subduing other dungeons.

“Huh….”

That was no different from saying that my dungeon became defenseless for a short period of time.

Of course, there is a Goblin Lord, but what would have happened if an unstoppable being came?

‘Are you adjusting the difficulty level with such a unique setting?’

It doesn’t matter because it worked out well in the end.

However, I will have to pay more attention to this part from now on.

– Adjutant ‘Celia’ has submitted a report to the master.

Just then an alarm popped up saying that Celia had uploaded a report.

She immediately touched the alarm and looked at it.

“Hmm.”

After checking, the general contents were as follows.

The reason the goblin shaman requested help was because the number of paladins in the area had recently increased.

‘The Paladins?’

On the continent of Eldorad, the only Holy Order was the White Order.

But the church occupies the southern part of the continent, and the place where my dungeon was located was the mountain range of the Kingdom of Seir.

Because the Kingdom of Seil was located in the northern part of the continent, it could be seen that the distance from the church was very long.

Furthermore, paladins are active in mountain ranges that are not even in the kingdom.

‘Why did you come here?’

I finished reading the report Celia posted.

A paladin appeared nearby and asked me what to do if I encounter them.

Oh.

I was once again impressed with Celia.

As expected, he was a good guy.

‘By the way, they are paladins….’

If it had been yesterday, she would have given an order to get rid of it unconditionally.

However, the uneasy thoughts she felt earlier made her hesitate to give the command.

Maybe it’s a delusion. Still, I was already feeling like I had no desire to give such an order.

The command was given by typing it myself rather than selecting an option like last time.

I touched the screen and began writing down the letters clearly.

– Even if you encounter a Holy Lover, do not kill it, but be generous and show mercy. It means to save me. Understand?

As I was about to write the command and click OK, a thought occurred to me.

“It was a sacrifice, right?”

In the game, an alarm has been sent saying that sacrifices have been made twice so far.

The objects of sacrifice were all people.

I added one additional word to the command.

– Oh, thank you for the offering, but instead of that, just offer an artifact.

I haven’t paid any attention to the sacrifices until now.

So this time, the order was given to offer an artifact rather than a living creature.

Just to check.

“Ha….”

Even when I thought about it, it was absurd.

Still, this was the right answer to get rid of my uncomfortable feelings.

– I always believe that you will work hard and take care of yourself. Good luck!

Finally, I pressed the OK button.

I wrote the words “Good work” Just for my own mood.

So it feels like you’re really giving orders to your subordinates, right?

I entered the store window before quitting the game.

Then he paid 20,000 gems.

It was a jewel worth 220,000 won in cash.

Unusually, this game developed the dungeon on its own without me. Gems are consumed in the process.

“This should be enough.”

I’m going to be busy again for a while.

Mana Sensitivity, a Class A attribute.

Feeling mana still seemed foreign to me.

That’s why I needed an adjustment period.

I plan to do some training for a few days to get used to it.

If I make all the characteristics my own and find just one appropriate skill, the rest of my life will be a flowery path.

The game ended with a hopeful future in mind.

“Let’s go home soon.”

I must have eaten both coffee and cake.

Just as I was about to get up from my seat.

“Over there.”

Someone spoke to me.

When I turned my head, a woman came next to me.

What is this situation?

I put down the smartphone she was holding in her hand and looked at her quietly.

When I didn’t say anything, she quickly said hello.

“My name is Yerin Jeong, a hunter from the Phoenix Guild.”

The other person introduced himself by revealing his name.

Then he handed me a business card.

The name of Jeong Ye-rin was engraved on the business card along with the Phoenix Guild logo.

“Oh, yes. My name is Lee Kang-hyun. “There are no business cards.”

First of all, I introduced myself according to the other person’s introduction.

Because I didn’t belong to any guild, I just told them my name.

However, after the introduction, the other person did not say anything for a while.

“… ….”

No, really, what are you going to do?

I couldn’t understand why he suddenly came and introduced himself.

Are you really criticizing me for making too much noise while playing the game?

I don’t know if it was really like that, but the woman in front of me was keeping her eyes on me.

I don’t know what the situation is.

This is what happened anyway. I can’t show weakness here.

This is a world where only the strong survive.

I also looked at the other person.

With a confident and appropriately arrogant expression.

After a while.

“Well, thank you. “Thanks to you, my problem has been resolved.”

The woman muttered something unintelligible and stood up.

“If everything goes well, I’ll come back again.”

“?”

What on earth did I go through?

I couldn’t figure out why the other person left behind such words.

One thing was certain: the other person ordered a piece of cake and left.

“What is it? “I don’t know.”

It seemed like a dangerous type that you probably shouldn’t get close to.

“It’s Jeong Ye-rin….”

I have to remember this.

Someone you shouldn’t get close to.

* · * *

Celia was looking at the dungeon with a satisfied expression.

She successfully carried out her master’s orders.

“This much is natural.”

I am His faithful servant.

There was an obligation to ensure that any order was unconditionally successful.

There was no such thing as failure.

“He is indeed a great man.”

At first, Celia racked her brain trying to figure out the meaning of her master’s command.

You’re busy conquering nearby dungeons right now, but you’re suddenly sending out support?

I had some doubts for a moment, but it is the master’s order.

As ordered, I tried to help with the dungeon the master mentioned.

But if you think about it, did the master simply give such an order?

If that were the case, he wouldn’t have even done it himself.

From then on, Celia continued to think.

What is the master’s intention?

After thinking about it, Celia came to one conclusion.

‘When you said to support other dungeons, you meant to save that dungeon from a difficult situation.’

Salvation is the Lord’s mercy.

Mercy meant coming into the arms of the master.

Already in Celia’s mind.

Help other dungeons = Become a part of our dungeon. A strange formula called

Was established.

“I knew for sure. Master!”

After all, a great being!

“Today, Celia, I feel like I’m one step closer to my master!”

At the same time, I reported the story with the goblin shaman to my master.

‘Certainly paladins are difficult beings.’

The goblin shaman said.

It is said that paladins have appeared in the mountains recently.

I don’t know what the purpose is.

But everyone could tell that they did not have good intentions.

As the lieutenant of the dungeon, Celia had the duty to ask the master what to do with them.

The owner’s answer was as follows.

【Mercy, generosity, eternal life】

【Artifact】

【Do your best for future glory.】

“I am acutely aware of my shortcomings in your deep insight.”

He told us to be generous and merciful to the Holy Knights.

Mercy is the embrace of the Master.

No matter how denomination they were, they were also thought to be embraced by the master.

And Celia paid attention to the last word, eternal life.

“You’re telling me to turn them into ghouls!”

You will be able to live a comfortable life in the arms of your master forever.

I muttered that I would have to cooperate with Mr. Death Knight on this part.

It was the moment when the future treatment of the Paladins was decided.

“Anyway, if it’s an artifact….”

Of course, a great person must have an artifact of the right level.

It would not have been acceptable to offer anything just because you said it was an artifact.

“Let’s find a legendary artifact! Wait for me. Master.”

Today too, Celia faithfully followed her master’s orders.
