33 – Episode 30: Shingo Ceremony – 5

“f*ck⸺!!!”

“This is super hot!! life is in danger wwww”

“I really hate this… This kind of thing… Please!!”

We are now facing a terrible situation.

He just wanted to get out of the dungeon.

But the reality was very cruel.

Seeing a swarm of forearm-sized beetles swarming in front of us, we were running away without asking anyone first.

This story goes back about 20 minutes or so.

***

Their test ended with Rin.

When I came to my senses, at some point Ryascon had disappeared.

“No, this bastard just kept saying what he had to say and went somewhere.”

It seems to have a concept of mysticism as a god in form, but it disappeared before I could ask anything. Shouldn’t a bitch at least tell me where the exit is.

It seemed to be the peculiarity of the gods of this world that they enjoyed everything they had to enjoy and just said their own words and disappeared.

“Who are you talking about?”

“No, that Lyascon, this woman called God… ”

“god? Have you suddenly lost your intelligence?”

“No, because it really was.”

Kyoko frowned and looked at me strangely.

“Joo-hyeok, I’m sorry, but I haven’t seen such a woman either. There were only three of us here from earlier.”

It seemed that they were completely unaware of Ryascon’s existence, which they should have seen as a matter of course since he was right next to me.

I just stopped trying to explain.

The test was over anyway, so there was no need to explain her existence.

“no… Now look for an exit.”

The important thing now was not the goddess, but the exit.

I wished there was a dramatic production that automatically sent me out as a reward for overcoming the test, but there was no such thing.

I don’t even have food right now, so all I have is these three cheap potions.

It was impossible to be discovered as three unknown adventurers who became white bones in this dungeon.

So we hurried our steps.

Appearing from behind the altar where everyone left, Ryascon muttered quietly.

“Those kids might be able to make it…”

…

After leaving the altar, we started walking aimlessly.

After turning the first corner, what appeared was a long corridor.

At the end of it was a treasure chest with luxurious decorations that looked very desirable.

It was a box that felt like introducing itself as a trap.

In the first place, there was no way that there would be treasures that weren’t robbed in this old dungeon, and in the corroded dungeon with cobwebs scattered here and there, only that box was shining perfectly.

How could there be a fool who would fall for such a lame trap…

Suddenly, I felt an ominous feeling, and I slammed a chestnut into Kyoko’s head.

“Why are you hitting me all of a sudden!”

“Ah… I’m sorry.

Kyoko grabbed the top of her head in sudden pain and shouted at me.

For some reason, I knew that Kyoko would run towards that box at this timing, so I hit Honey Bam almost like a habit.

“I am not stupid either!”

“okay. No matter how low your intelligence is, you wouldn’t think of opening that… ”

“Chop…”

“why?

Fortunately, she didn’t move this time either, so I was relieved and said I was sorry to Kyoko.

Kyoko’s face suddenly turned pale.

“My, under my feet… went in… ”

“ah.”

At her words, Rin and I, who looked at Kyoko’s feet, began to turn white as well.

The bottom of Kyoko’s left foot, which she had just stepped on, was completely off, as if a button had been pressed.

drooling⸺

The wall behind the treasure chest opened with a loud bang.

At the same time, unpleasant noises began to be heard from inside.

“please…”

There was no way it just went well.

A group of fist-sized beetles emerged from the darkness with a terrifying sound of flapping wings.

The insects spread their brown wings from their black bodies and began to fly towards us at frightening speed, with sharp snouts attached to their mouths.

So to put it simply.

It was a huge swarm of cockroaches.

“f*ck…”

We started running like crazy without looking back.

If I had been through something like this before coming here, this situation would have been put to the test at this initiation ceremony.

Running at full speed and entering a certain hallway, a small gap appeared.

Since it was a straight hallway, the back was already blocked by swarms of beetles.

So, this gap was the only way.

Reluctantly, I quickly crawled through the gap and climbed over the wall, and a cave appeared.

In front of it was a large lake.

“Joo-hyeok, those caught up with me!”

“Let’s get into that lake first!”

Before we had time to catch our breath, we had no choice but to throw ourselves into the cold cave lake to escape the beetles.

As soon as I entered, the cold made my body tingle.

When I opened my eyes and looked into the water, it was much deeper than I expected. I looked at them just in case, and luckily, they all seemed to be able to swim.

‘That’s… !’

Then, something caught my eye.

Light was coming into the water from far away.

In other words, that place was connected to the ground.

I immediately gestured to them in that direction, and we started swimming toward it.

Having barely come ashore, we looked like mice soaked in water.

Thinking about it, I suddenly felt miserable.

f*ck, why do I have to do this.

A deep resentment was soon directed at the adventurers who put us in this situation.

…

We entered the Adventurer’s Guild without a word.

“congratulation! The ceremony was successfully completed!”

“Who are these, aren’t we newcomers!”

“Good job! Now you are true adventurers that no one can deny!”

Everyone in the Adventurer’s Guild noticed us and greeted us with raised tones.

I silently approached their drinking table, stood there blankly for a moment, then opened my mouth.

“You bastards⸺!!!”

At the same time as that cry, I overturned their drinking tables.

Naturally, the drunk adventurer got excited and argued with me, and I replied with a fist instead of words.

As he was having a fistfight with one adventurer, the other adventurers were watching the situation as if they were accustomed to having fun.

“haha! You’re already learning to ssambakjil! You are an adventurer.”

“Iya, the Shingo Ceremony is effective. Now, anyone can call me an adventurer!”

The big adventurers, who were drunk and their noses were red, spoke with a big laugh.

Baka-!

I hit the wooden goblet full of barley with force at the head of the adventurer.

“You f*cking bastard! I almost missed the perfect score!”

“This fledgling bastard wants to try it!”

“Yeah f*ck! Go head to head!”

At the same time as I said that, I stabbed his eyes vigorously.

“Ouch! You cowardly bastard!”

“yes. There is no such thing as cowardice in practice.”

Grabbing his eyes and staggering, he jumped at him and started beating him.

“Rin Kyoko, step on that bastard!”

Even Rin and Kyoko, who had been rioting at my words, joined in and started beating the adventurer.

The adventurer was crouching down and shouting to stop.

“WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW IS THROUGHED FOR HAIRBOYS”

“This is a punishment that threatens the security of the people of a large country and the people of a small country!”

Kyoko and Rin, as if they had accumulated a lot, were mercilessly releasing their accumulated anger toward the adventurer.

“Be patient! Please do not destroy guild property! I’m deducting this from my salary, which I couldn’t manage!”

The receptionist cried out as he saw us throwing chairs and bowls and making a fuss.

However, it was already too late to stop our riot, when anger was already at its peak.

That day, 30% of the receptionist’s salary disappeared into thin air along with her tears.

The peaceful adventurer’s guild’s day was going by normally today as well.

***

“The saintess has disappeared-!!!”

Pel Terk, the capital of the Holy Nation Davonnell Kingdom.

The Terk Palace, located in the capital, was currently in a state of great emergency.

The saintess who was supposed to be in the room disappeared, and the window was wide open.

“no! Where the hell are you going, saintess!”

She hurried her steps with a firm expression on her face, as if she didn’t even know about the worries of her servants and servants, who were worried enough to wear out after a long time.

“I don’t hang out with crazy humans anymore. It is clear that he is insane.”

The blue-haired woman, wearing a black robe and muttering to herself, had a disgusted expression on her face.

Her name is Isabelle Martinez.

It’s already been 3 months since I was summoned to this unknown world.

In order to live without knowing why, Isabelle had to busily travel from place to place and give people a smile.

If it were only that, I wouldn’t have been dissatisfied.

The problem was in that hellish prayer and service time.

On days when there were no special schedules, I had to sit in the church all day and pray to the goddess.

Because she had always built a wall with religion, that time was inevitably painful.

In addition, both body and mind were getting tired due to the daily repeated lifting of the holy woman and the demands of the anti-compulsory use of divine power.

She had a sad, dying expression on her face.

“Why do I have to go through this kind of f*ck?”

Isabelle couldn’t help but feel absurd and unfair.

…

All he did that day was just reading the posts on the Internet one by one.

Well, I didn’t comment or watch the video, I was just scrolling down and looking at the articles.

Then, a post caught her eye, and Isabelle clicked on it without thinking.

Then suddenly a private chat arrived.

[Goddess] : Congratulations, You passed! 😉

Lastly, a large magic circle began to form under Isabelle’s feet, and without a chance to respond, she began to be swallowed up by the large magic circle.

And when she opened her eyes, the damn goddess appeared to her.

In conclusion, it has become Lee Ji-kyung.

That’s why I didn’t want to do the damn thing of praying to that goddess rather than die.

“It doesn’t matter. I do. RUN.”
