Episode 99
99. Episode 99
It’s been a month since the Diablo clan stayed in the stronghold.
If it had been normal, the system would have advised me to try the next trial immediately since a month had passed, but even after a month, the message did not appear.
‘Because the wolf of Tabula has disappeared.’
No matter how much of a system it was, it didn’t have the ability to restore NPCs that had disappeared like in a game.
If it was the tower Seun remembered, it didn’t seem like it would leave the players alone, but it didn’t matter.
Anyway, I was planning to move to the next floor soon.
“Hey, it fits perfectly?”
“As expected, the seniors’ equipment is amazing.”
“What material is this made of? It’s incredibly light.”
Before leaving for the next floor, each clan member was wearing the equipment they had received from Go Chang-seok.
What was interesting was that the equipment worn by each clan member was slightly different.
“Haha, I didn’t make it to sell anyway. I know exactly who’s going to use it, so I might as well make it something that fits them perfectly.”
“It must have been a hassle to make them one by one.”
“What a bother! I should have made it properly when I had a proper blacksmith shop. This month has been much more lively than when I was on Earth!”
That’s because Go Chang-seok customized each piece of equipment to suit each person’s individual characteristics.
For a left-handed warrior, a left-handed longsword. For a warrior whose strength is agility, a light armor.
Not only the size, but also the grip shape and blade shape are perfectly matched. In addition, the performance is guaranteed to be C-grade or higher.
If you had paid money for such customized equipment at a blacksmith shop, you would have lost more public points than you might think.
No, if it wasn’t to the extent of Seun, then there wouldn’t have been enough public funds to purchase it in the first place.
“We’re ready too!”
“This ability is really convenient, isn’t it?”
-The constellation, ‘Black Bird’ nods, saying it is natural.
-The constellation looks around once more to make sure the ‘giant bird’ hasn’t forgotten anything.
The cleanup of the base has also been completed.
Players who had not yet left their base came to say goodbye.
Since they had become quite close since the last party, a warm scene unfolded as they said they would meet again next time.
In the meantime, Yoo Seo-ah, who had finished cleaning up, approached Se-woon and spoke to him.
“But what was the original ordeal on the first floor like?”
Thanks to Seun’s efforts, the Diablo Clan obtained the ‘1st floor trial pass qualification’. They went up to the 2nd floor without even checking the trial.
As it was the first trial, it was natural to be curious.
To her question, Se-Woon answered lightly.
“It might have been something like a wave.”
“That could be true. Honestly, that’s the first image that comes to mind when I think of trials.”
It was an answer close to a guess, but it was a fact based on Se-un’s experience.
The first trial on the first floor. It was about surviving waves of monsters, just like the first chapter of the tutorial.
The problem is that the trials are faced by individual players rather than the entire clan.
‘It was an ordeal to weed out those who had passed the tutorial by luck without any skills.’
This is exactly why Seun pushed his clan members so hard during the tutorial.
No matter how hard you watch over the weak and powerless, they are bound to fail in this first ordeal.
‘If it weren’t for this, everyone would have stuck together.’
The Diablo Clan was very strong, as expected from having passed the tutorial in first place.
Although Seun’s activities were great, even without that, the individual strength of each clan member was stronger than that of an average first-tier player.
Even if it was Go Chang-seok, who was not in the combat field, he would have been able to pass the first ordeal with ease.
To be honest, even if your skills aren’t that great, you should be able to win any battle with equipment like Go Chang-seok’s.
“Everyone, take one of these! This is a medication for trauma, and this is an antidote.”
“thank you!”
“I’ll use it well, Sky.”
Lee Ha-neul distributed medicine to people.
It was a medicine bottle made from herbs that Seun had collected from the sparkling garden.
I’ve used it myself before, and it was great enough to rival the performance of other potions.
“If anything happens, please contact me through clan chat!”
Clan Chat. Short for Clan Chat.
It was a clan feature that Seun opened by paying separate points, and it was a feature that allowed conversations even when you were far apart.
There was a restriction that it had to be the same clan, but other than that, it had better functions than the communication stone Seun had created.
As soon as the general organization was finished, people’s attention naturally turned to Yoo Seo-ah.
When Se-woon nodded, she took a deep breath and raised her voice.
“As you all know, what we have been through so far has literally been a ‘tutorial’. Now that we have entered the top, the trials will be more difficult than before.”
People nodded.
Having gone through that tough tutorial, everyone’s expressions were filled with a mixture of nervousness and confidence.
“Unlike before, you may have to face trials alone, or you may face trials that you never expected.”
This was a kind of advice using the conversation with Seun.
Everyone is used to working in groups in tutorials, but the trials of the top were different.
There are some who challenge in groups, but there are also many who challenge alone or in pairs, and there are many places where the number of people is divided into various groups.
To instill that sense of alertness, she included the current line in her speech.
And lastly.
“But we can do it.”
Her serious face brightened. The faces of those who had been tense also brightened up.
“As we have done so far, we will be able to overcome it in the future as well.”
“Whew! That’s cool!”
“Let’s go!”
Although she had struggled through many difficult journeys in the tutorial, she had now transformed into a full-fledged leader.
As the people’s cheering died down, Se-woon stepped forward in front of her.
Now it’s time to slowly leave the shelter.
“I hope everyone continues to do as they are doing now.”
“Oh, Clan Leader!”
“Blood wolf! Blood wolf!”
“Brother, come with me!”
Now even that blood-curdling sound feels familiar.
With that in mind, Se-Woon was the first to use his trial pass.
– Pass the trials on the first floor through outstanding achievements.
-You will immediately enter the second floor trial.
Phew!
With a bright light, Seun’s body disappeared.
Soon after, the clan members, including Yushua, were also enveloped in light, and the Diablo clan was completely hidden from the stronghold.

“Should I call this a promotion… … .”
Tuning, the head of the tutorial, muttered as he looked in the mirror and straightened his tie.
After Seun passed the tutorial, he had to spend his time busy without rest.
Not only was the leader of the hungry ogres, Krak Katlak, summoned, but the Golden Castle fell and Darakan fell before he could even get near the walls.
Because I had to bundle together incidents that would make your jaw drop just by reporting them to the top.
As a result…….
– As of now, player ‘Jeong Se-woon’ is designated as the top irregular.
– Accordingly, the tutorial director ‘Tuning’ is appointed as the special task force leader.
Top recommended Tuning for a transfer.
To be honest, it was no different from a forced move. It was impossible to refuse because it was a tuning that was responsible for the public ranking rewards.
Tuning, clearing his throat and clearing his throat, took his first steps into the tower’s management office.
I don’t know if it was a good thing, but if you look at it only in terms of position, it was clear that the team leader at the top was a higher position than the person in charge of the tutorial.
As he entered the office, a man with dark circles extending down his eyes greeted him.
“Ah… …Who is it?”
“This is tuning. Starting today, I have been appointed as the special team leader for player ‘Jeong Se-woon’.”
“Ah… … Ah! Jeong Se-woon! That damn thing!”
“yes?”
“No, no. Yes, you are that guy. No, that player’s dedicated.”
The expression on the man’s face, who had been swearing at Se-un upon hearing his name, suddenly brightened.
Then he began to hastily pile up the documents that were filling up the desk, gathered them together, and handed them to Tuning.
As a tuner, I had no choice but to accept the documents without even knowing English.
“What is this… … .”
“That’s what the player did when he came to the first floor.”
“yes?”
“You have eliminated the pests in the sparkling garden and achieved 5 circles.”
“It looks like you found a hidden piece here too. And it’s a 5 circle.”
Tuning stuck out his tongue. As expected, it seems like he’s causing trouble at the top just like he did during the tutorial.
But the amount of paperwork was too much to just get through.
Then the man sighed and introduced the next incident.
“There are many small things that were cut out. The most important thing is that the player hunted Tabula’s wolf.”
“The Wolf of Tabula? That’s for sure!”
“Yes, it was a compulsory element to make players challenge the trials instead of staying in the shelter.”
“Then what happens to the players in the shelter now?”
“Of course it’s still intact. I’ve already been to the higher-ups because of this. They told me to quickly create a new compulsory element.”
“… …Thank you for your hard work.”
“Haha! What a struggle! It’s okay. But… … .”
The man approached quietly and patted Tuning on the shoulder.
In this, the tuning was felt first and foremost as a creepy ominous feeling, more than any other emotion.
“You’re the one who’s having a harder time. Just looking at it, it looks like that player has a lot going for him.”
“Haha, I used to be the head of the tutorial department. I’m confident in my job.”
“Even so, how easy is it to handle that much work alone?”
“Huh? Alone? There are people in the dedicated team… … .”
“Didn’t you know? The special task force is made up of one person.”
A thunderbolt.
Tuning’s heart sank as he heard the man’s words.
Unbelievable.
Somehow, there was no mention of the excessive payment of public ranking rewards.
“Ahem. It’s nice to call him a team leader, but it’s basically like he’s taking on all the work that the entire team should do.”
The very act of assigning himself to a dedicated team alone was a punishment stronger than any other punishment.
As Tuning was still not coming to his senses, the man placed another stack of documents on top of the ones Tuning was holding and patted his back.
“Cheer up. I heard that there are more constellations interested than you think.”
The man quietly placed a can of coffee on top of a stack of papers containing tuning.
