16 hours and 20 minutes by direct flight.

Previously, there were cases where it took 12 hours, but this is the best and the best in the changed route.

As soon as we got off the plane, everyone burst into admiration.

“It’s amazing, even a place called Hwaseung.”

“uh. It’s more amazing than expected.”

“and… … I didn’t expect you to come here like this.”

“It’s the first time I’ve come this far!”

These reactions were natural.

We are currently in Paris, France.

It’s Europe.

There were no illusions about Europe anymore.

‘That’s what people live for. I also saw the finale there, so there can be no illusions.’

In fact, you can’t have a fantasy if you have it.

I saw a bastard who was racist even as the apocalypse approached.

At the end of the day, I’ve seen a couple of times when a few countries block themselves off and then something big happens.

What is the admiration for coming to a place like this?

“Hanhui. No matter how you calculate it, the more you have the power of a Hwaseung, the better.”

“I agree one hundred percent.”

I can only admire the power of Hwaseung who brought me here at once.

It’s not yet the time when the Void has settled down in earnest, though.

In the current situation, it is never easy to get Europe and Korea back and forth.

Even so, Hwaseung took us to this place quickly.

As a result, both I and Isaiah are motivated.

Willingness to succeed in the operation no matter what!

Was that desire a little too much?

The staff who accompanied us next to us swallowed a cough.

In that case, our words will be a bit embarrassing.

“greatness. However, I am also an employee of Hwaseung. Talking about the power of Hwaseung in front of me is a bit… … .”

“Are you proud of yourself?”

“That said… … .”

“Ah, if it were me, would I be proud?”

“… … That’s it. I will guide you first.”

But I had no intention of hiding anything.

Although everything I said made its way to Chairman Han through the attendant.

what to do

As far as I know, Chairman Han’s personality itself likes to talk openly.

You will probably laugh out loud when you hear this story.

A funny guy appeared.

But before that, the operation must be successful.

So I had to hurry.

One day before arriving in Europe.

Another day to go back.

Half a day since my grandson died.

It’s already been two and a half days.

Only 9 days and 12 hours left.

We had to clear the dungeon within this time.

To that end, the first place we arrived was.

“I consider it. The Louvre Museum.”

“Are we finally here?”

A place where all kinds of loot are collected and openly boasted.

It was the Louvre Museum, where they sometimes returned items as if they were in a good mood.

* * *

The Louvre closes at 6pm.

Even in a situation where dungeons opened and exploded all over Europe, France kept the Louvre.

As if it were their own pride.

Thanks to that, there were quite a few people who could be called tourists.

Quite a few people looked at us.

“There are a lot of people.”

“I want you to stop staring at me.”

“Children, you have no manners.”

The meaning of the gaze is obvious.

I don’t know if it was before, but it wasn’t easy to travel around the world right now.

Flight tickets are insanely expensive.

As a result, the number of tourists would decrease.

In particular, there must have been fewer people coming from the Asian side.

I know you’re looking at it strangely.

Still, it’s young, isn’t it polite to look at me like this?

“Tsk. It’s urgent, so why are you sneaking around?”

“Shall we harm it, Hanhui?”

“Stop talking nonsense. I’ll take care of it. separation of spirits. Inflate spiritual power.”

[You separated your spiritual power.]

[You used Soul Magic: Spiritual Power Inflate.]

Paaang-!

It wasn’t an attack.

It’s because I only inflated my spiritual power and disturbed their eyesight.

“Kyaaah!”

“What, what!”

Maybe thanks to that, the guys who were following us were surprised.

what do you know

If I hadn’t followed her around in the first place, none of this would have happened.

‘Idiots.’

I lead the party, passing the astonished ones.

Then how fast did you go inside?

I heard the urgent voice of Marie who was following me.

“Here, Hanhui!”

was the destination.

* * *

in front of some huge picture.

Marie knelt in front of a sign full of French.

Then, as she closed her eyes and began to pray, something strange happened.

sssss-

The shape of the picture in which a woman was drawn gradually changed.

The image of a certain goddess whose face is hidden is reflected.

‘… … Are you smiling?’

Even though I couldn’t see his face, I felt it.

She was smiling and looking down at Marie with that smile.

It was the most benevolent smile.

“and… … what?”

“Who are you?”

“amazing!”

That smile wasn’t just for me.

All the members of the team were surprised to see it.

Well, it’s strange that the picture is reversed and the traces of the Constellation are visible in it, but I’m not surprised.

On the contrary, I have a lot of goals.

That bastard and I, who was behind Marie, looked at each other in turn.

But for some reason, when he looked at me, instead of smiling, he frowned.

I can feel the anger there.

Kindness followed by anger.

It’s not like I’m sick of anything.

Anyway, that child looks like that when he sees me.

‘Why on earth do you only have me, that bastard?’

Thanks to you, I thought I knew who it was.

It must be a constellation that Marie doesn’t know the name of.

Mary’s son.

I didn’t expect it to show up like this.

Even in this circumstance, you would be glaring at me.

Anyway, he’s a great guy.

A constellation like that.

Anyway, they are guys regardless of place and time.

This is why I hate Constellations.

Do we need to fight more nervously?

Even so, the whispers around me grew bigger.

The uproar grew.

As soon as Marie prays, the picture changes.

Divine power was spreading out of that painting, which was natural.

Because of this, I urged

“Stop glaring at me, please, open it. If we get caught like this, will it be blocked?”

-… … .

Despite my urging, he glared at me for about three seconds.

It wasn’t long before whistles and emergency bells were heard everywhere.

this this.

The Louvre’s guards are starting to move.

That, too, was not a normal guard, but the awakened ones.

In this Louvre, where all kinds of treasures are crammed in, sacred things are often found.

So I had to move quickly.

“hurry!”

-… … after.

is it a sigh?

With that sound, the goddess hit the floor inside the painting.

Then the floor inside the painting cracked.

The split extended beyond the painting.

The crack stopped moving right in front of Marie’s knee.

Then, it started cutting through the air.

split void.

ugh-

The dungeon gate opened.

[You have discovered the hidden test dungeon.]

This is the first destination we should have reached.

From here on, it was the judge’s edition.

“and. What’s happening?”

“There is no time for surprises. Everyone take this.”

I threw the equipment contained in the shadow bag at my teammates.

The team members were surprised but quickly picked up the equipment.

As soon as I checked it, I said right away.

“It’s as it should be. know? See you all alive. No, let’s climb as high as possible. Come in!”

“yes!”

Lee Jin-seong and Lee Jin-ah were the first to jump.

Belatedly, Kim Min-ha smiled at me and entered.

Isaiah.

“after… … I don’t know if this will be okay.”

“You come alive.”

“huh! See you later!”

Uncharacteristically nervous, she entered the gate.

And finally Marie.

“See you later.”

“huh.”

[You received a companion’s prayer: reinforcement.]

[An unknown constellation is angry with you.]

She came up to me, bestowed her blessing, and entered the gate.

by then

Beep- beep-!

“at there!”

“What are you guys doing!”

Louvre guards approaching with a loud sound.

As I expected, all of them were fully equipped.

The energy I felt was unusual.

Their purpose was clearly visible.

I came to stop you.

A dungeon that occurred here in France.

Depending on how you use that dungeon, it could be of great benefit, so you probably want to protect it.

But what?

This time it’s the exact opposite situation.

“no!”

“Forbidden to enter… … Oh no.”

“You guys try to rob it this time.”

I ignored their words and went straight inside.

[You have entered the dungeon of a hidden test.]

A bright light enveloped me.

* * *

The first thing you see when you enter is darkness.

Then white letters appeared in the air.

[You have entered the Dungeon of the Hidden Test: Stairway to Heaven.]

[The owner of the dungeon examines your qualifications.]

[You have confirmed your qualifications.]

“You deserve it… … .”

This is the dungeon of the hidden test.

Unlike special dungeons that can be entered for each grade, you can enter it by achieving special conditions.

By the way, finding something hidden is the beginning of the test.

We were able to break it easily thanks to Marie.

‘I didn’t know I’d be able to use it right away after finding out the location.’

The location she said after clearing the special dungeon.

Because that location is right here.

Originally, about ten years later.

A dungeon called Stairway to Heaven opens here and elsewhere.

At that time, Marie gets a staff from this place.

Her final weapon, the Staff of Life.

A morale-level weapon that increases the performance of all prayers she possesses and lowers her penalty.

One of the best things she has.

Before returning, Mari was perfected by having the Staff of Life.

The strength and divine power befitting the last seven people always supported the party reliably.

Therefore, this place had no choice but to be our destination.

‘If you use the wand of life as a perk… … This resurrection is also possible.’

Because it can reduce the delay of resurrection itself.

By doing so, we will be able to complete the request we received from the chairman.

Because of this, Marie had to pass the test here.

If she passed the test, Marie would receive the staff of life in return.

No worries.

“I’ve already done it once, there’s no way I can’t do it twice.”

-She’s a monster no less than you, so she’ll do it.

Marie would definitely do it.

Maybe, he didn’t know if he would bring more than just the staff of life.

So, I had no worries about her.

the problem is me

And it’s clear that all the members of the team, except for Marie, will have new assignments.

The stairway to heaven, worthy of its name, was filled with endlessly high stairs.

[Proceed with the test.]

From now on.

I had to get up there.
