Dungeon Monsters Keep Offering Sacrifices

37 – Inspector Rich’s Evaluation

A deep and secret space.

There was a dark and cold atmosphere there.

The candles erected around the area were casting shadows on the wall, slightly dispelling the darkness.

And the shadow was moving busily.

“Ah, it’s just the beginning.”

It was none other than Celia.

“The time has come to spread the master’s will in earnest.”

Recently, the owner reorganized the organization within the dungeon.

An environment was created where each person was assigned a task and could work for the master.

The purpose of reorganizing the organization in this way was not simply for efficient operation.

The master is definitely testing us.

It meant adapting to the current situation and preparing for future goals.

“It is clear that the master is looking at the bigger world.”

No matter how many other dungeons came into the master’s embrace, their size was too small.

If you are a great person, you will not be satisfied with this.

In the future, he will go beyond the current dungeon and rule over villages and cities, and will not stop there, but will rule over countries and continents.

The great being and noble master must have had such a big plan in mind for a long time.

“This Celia is still too overwhelmed to follow the master’s insight.”

The current organizational reorganization was not just a part of the future plan.

In the end, the current purpose is to build the master’s power and provide the minimum necessary equipment for when a nation is established.

“Ah, I’m ecstatic. Master!”

Everyone will bow down on the ground and offer their loyalty to their master.

Celia was smiling and truly happy.

She was like that, but soon she was able to manage her expression again.

“This is also a test. “It’s still too early to be happy.”

The master made the large frame.

Mr. Rich was acting as an inspector by traveling around the dungeon and the nearby forest, and Mr. Death Knight was paying attention to protecting the dungeon in his position as a knight commander.

In addition, he had a lot of work to do.

He is the general manager and is in charge of diplomacy and correcting discipline.

Just by looking at this, I could see how important the master considered me.

Celia accepted this as meaning to produce more results.

She thought at the same time.

Celia herself had to fill in the details on the board the master had laid out.

“Let’s start by taking control of the mountain range first.”

For that, information was important.

Only a portion of the dungeons in the mountain range have been merged.

Now it was necessary to expand information about the entire mountain range, not just a part of it, and even the human world.

“We will need a department in charge of information.”

But aren’t there restrictions on movement for those who are tied up with their master?

Someday, this restriction will be lifted, but right now it was impossible.

Even so, it does not mean that there is no way.

There was a good alternative.

It was a method of using those who had recently joined the master.

Unlike those who had been in the arms of their master from the beginning, they had no restrictions on their movement.

Of course, they are beings whose souls are already tied to the dungeon.

However, if you take advantage of the fact that there are no restrictions on movement, you may be able to fill in some of the gaps related to the information you need now.

Of course, their capabilities could have been an issue, but this was something she had to worry about.

Because Celia was planning to thoroughly reward those who did well.

“Please watch, master!”

Celia clenched her fists and strengthened her resolve.

Now it was her time.

***

“Ha… under….”

Beren was currently in a state of death.

‘f*ck you!’

The orc’s power was much stronger than he thought.

He is who he is.

I have been to many battlefields while leading the ‘Red Fang’ mercenary group.

Aren’t you the mercenary who survived the battlefield full of blood and despair?

But at best, we couldn’t catch even a single orc and were being pushed back.

‘There is such a difference in strength?’

The good news was that the skeletons around were still.

Of course, there were a few members who tried to break through the skeleton, but they all passed away.

This is because the skeletons they tried to break through exploded, taking their lives.

I was puzzled at first, but I soon realized the reason.

It was none other than the presence of Lich.

No matter how ignorant you were about monsters, you didn’t know everything.

Rather, I knew about the monster with many stories.

For Beren, that was the lich.

Lich was one of the monsters that was evaluated as difficult to deal with.

The problem was none other than the skill, which was said to explode nearby skeletons. And this was true.

If there were as many skeletons around as there are now, there would be nothing more difficult than the lich.

Beren also heard about it at some point, so he was able to remember it later.

Of course, the guy named Lich was not doing anything other than exploding the skeleton.

Instead, he was quietly looking around and pretending to write something down.

It was humiliating.

Now that he thought about it, the orcs he was dealing with didn’t seem to be giving his all either.

‘Are you playing with this body?!’

At the same time, I was angry.

“Ugh.”

He couldn’t believe he was being pushed around by a monster or something.

In a moment of anger, I continued to swing my weapon, but the result was that it was blocked by the opposing orc’s weapon.

This is because there was one fact that Beren did not know.

If he had knowledge about dungeons and monsters like an adventurer, he might have noticed that the orc in front of him was no ordinary monster.

But Beren had been dealing with the same people on the battlefield until now, and this was his first time dealing with monsters in earnest, so he didn’t know that.

That’s why he was pushing himself even harder, blaming his own skills.

Rather, it was the worst choice for him.

Because in the process of pushing, gaps began to appear in his posture.

Skoll, the Orc warrior who was effortlessly blocking all of Beren’s attacks, was also not unaware of this.

If there was even the slightest gap in Beren’s posture, he swung his sword and inflicted a shallow wound.

It looked like he was just playing with it.

“Tsk.”

Squall clicked his tongue slightly.

I thought that a warrior who could make my heart beat faster had come after a long time, but the person in front of me did not have the ability to do so.

He was even destroying himself.

Originally, the most important thing in battle is to look at the opponent calmly, but the person in front of him was just swinging his weapon out of impatience.

Of course, I understood why.

Because the skeletons had already surrounded the area, there was no way to escape, and the subordinates who tried to break through were already dead.

Skoll leisurely struck away Beren’s weapon and glanced next to him.

A lich appeared in his field of vision.

The lich was observing his battle and writing something on his paper.

‘How is it? ‘Chwiik!’

The purpose is probably to inform the ruler of his great battle.

Skoll was proud and slowly put pressure on Beren.

He showed enough of what he had to show.

I wanted to end this boring battle soon, so I increased the intensity.

Just-

Richie, who was looking at the scene, nodded his head.

Then I started writing it down on paper.

– Looking away during battle, this is cause for point deduction.

Rich was a cool-headed inspector.

At the same time, I looked at the Death Knight who came to the side and was watching.

Looking at the Death Knight, the lich nodded his head.

– Not keeping the dungeon, being negligent at work, and leaving your seat are grounds for deduction of points.

Rich was a truly cool-headed inspector.

* · * *

There was someone watching the current scene from afar.

It was Gulon, a member of the audit team of the Demon World Chamber of Commerce.

Gulon was using a telescope to see everything that was happening.

And then Gulon’s toad-like face trembled at what he saw.

“Crazy.”

I cursed without realizing it.

The scene he saw was monsters currently defeating humans.

But he did not just look at it simply.

‘A lich and a death knight?!’

They all had the power to believe that they were the masters of their respective dungeons.

But the point was that such power was handled carelessly.

Gulon knew well because he was broken by the manager.

Most of the dungeon owners around here were 1 or 2 stars at most.

Among them, he clearly knew that 3-star orcs were the best.

That’s why I didn’t worry about which dungeon the Death Knight and Lich belonged to.

‘Were you hiding your power?’

When Gulon himself visited the dungeon, he did not feel that level of power.

At most, it was just a skeleton knight.

Gulon’s whole body was shaking.

Even the superiors probably don’t know that this level of power exists.

No, the merchant in charge may have known.

However, the fact that the Chamber of Commerce did not know could only be seen as the fact that he did not report it on purpose.

‘He was a scary guy.’

Do you mean that even the merchant in charge was roasted and boiled?

More than anything, he was appalled by the fact that he did not reveal his full potential.

‘Anyway, what is it?’

Gulon thought for a moment.

Four shadows behind his own.

They were monsters given to him by the company.

Because these were shadows themselves, they had no exact reality.

As a being that can go anywhere as long as there is darkness and shadow, it specializes in information gathering and assassination.

So they were, in short, unidentified monsters with no name or identity.

The reason the merchant gave it to him was obvious.

Resolving the current situation.

In short, the idea was to destroy its power before it grows any further.

But look at that scene.

Can’t you see the Death Knight and Lich?

‘There is definitely more hidden power.’

It was reasonable to think so.

How flawed was the report written based only on the surface?

From noble mtl dot com

Thanks to him, he was on the verge of being kicked out of the company if he couldn’t resolve the issue.

“… ….”

The problem was that I couldn’t think of a way to solve this.

No matter how many shadows there were, it was difficult for them, who specialized in information gathering and assassination, to deal with even a lich, let alone a Death Knight.

The opponent must be reasonably strong, but this was like digging one’s own grave.

“Huh….”

Gulon sighed heavily.

My heart was filled with thoughts of wanting to run away.

But I was concerned about the shadowy beings behind Gulon himself.

If he abandons his mission, they will target him first.

When Gulon’s thoughts grew longer.

‘If you think about it….’

A good idea suddenly occurred to me.

As soon as the thought occurred to him, Gulon turned towards the shadows behind him.

“There is an old adage that in order to destroy an enemy, one must go inside the opponent.”

Actually, I don’t know if such a thing exists.

It was just Gulon saying whatever happened.

“We will enter the opponent’s dungeon as merchants.”

Gulon began explaining the plan to the shadows.

“If only I could enter the dungeon….”

Of course, contrary to his appearance, different thoughts were blooming inside him.

‘Let’s surrender. ‘This is suicide.’

The company that abandoned him was no longer in his mind.

No matter how clueless I was, I was able to make a choice because I knew the atmosphere.

The problem was to get out of the shadows immediately.

‘Okay, if I can just go into the dungeon….’

Gulon thought of Celia.

Looking at her power alone, she believed that she would be more than capable of dealing with the shadows.

She was Gulon, who thought that if she ran to her dungeon, prayed, and bowed down, at least she could save her life.

‘Please…’ .’

He learned that sometimes you have to be quick-witted to survive in a cruel world.

Thing-

Thing-

Today, like yesterday, the smartphone rang.

The contents are obvious even without looking at them.

“Celia will take care of it. “For now, let’s go quickly.”

Now I had work to do.

The skeleton next to me is none other than Maru.

If you want to officially keep this guy, you must report it to the Awakened Center.

Reporting is not something grand; all you have to do is report that you have summoning-related abilities, such as a summoner or spiritist.

This was a law established by the government for the purpose of preventing crime among hunters, and if I did not report this, it would have been illegal for me to carry a skeleton with me like I do now.

“Let’s just register quickly and come.”

Maybe I should register as a necromancer.

It would be nice if this guy were stronger, but he is a 1-star skeleton soldier.

By the standards of this place, she is actually a weak monster, enough to be hunted by even an F-class hunter.

“Well, it’s still comfortable in many ways.”

At least this guy is doing all the housework.

And this guy is not the main event anyway.

The real thing was different.

“Hurry up and get closer to the day when you receive the magic sword.”

It was the magic sword that Celia offered as her sacrifice.
