“Mr. Seun!”
“Hyungniiim!”
As soon as we returned to the base, Yoo Seo-ah and Park Jeong-pil warmly welcomed us.
He lightly pushed away the head of Park Jeong-pil who was rushing towards him and asked about the situation at the base.
“Nothing happened. Even after Seun-ssi left, several clans attacked, but the stronghold was so good that not a single fence was broken.”
“The performance of Park Jeong-pil, my brother’s right-hand man, was also amazing!”
“It’s Blood Wolf Oppa!”
“Brother, you should have seen the catapult we made in action!”
Well, the back was blocked by a cliff authorized by the system, and the front was a fortress built by twin sisters.
Even if a hungry ogre had appeared, it would not have been easy to breach the fortress.
“By the way, what happened to Seun? He’s the leader of the ogres.”
Yu Seo-ah took out a ticket.
They said they would give the tutorial pass to the entire clan, but it seems like the same message Seun saw was shown to the clan members.
“It’s exactly as you see. I somehow managed to defeat the chief, and thanks to that, I’m certain to pass this tutorial.”
“Was this planned as well? I can’t read Mr. Se-un’s thoughts at all.”
“As expected of you, hyung! I, Park Jeong-pil, will support you for the rest of my life!”
Se-woon smiled awkwardly at Yu Seo-ah’s words.
If it were normal, it would have been a positive silence, but in the case of the Ogre leader and the tutorial pass, even Seun didn’t expect it.
“We don’t know when players will attack here again, so let’s take a break for now and move on to the next tutorial.”
“Yes! Oh, Mr. Hancheol… … .”
“I’m fine.”
“It’s okay. Go and get treatment right away. There’s a limit to what my magic or potions can do.”
“……i get it.”
If it’s Lee Ha-neul who has a contract with Marbas, he will be able to treat Kang-cheol more reliably than Se-un’s emergency treatment.
Although they were leaving the base they had built after using it for only a few days, not a single person complained.
Because everyone knew what they had to do to survive here.
‘This is the fourth tutorial… … .’
Se-Woon looked up the cliff, reviewing his plan once more.
* * *
“Team Leader, is that okay? A tutorial pass? I’ve never heard of anything like this before… .”
The head of the tutorial department, a skinny manager standing in front of the tuning department, was sweating profusely.
That’s right, it was because of the unprecedented reward of the Tutorial Pass, which was a decision Tuning had just made.
In fact, the reward for defeating ‘Krak Katlak, the leader of the Ogres’ was enormous.
There was no need to pay any additional compensation since then, but Tuning suddenly paid such additional compensation with a determined look in his eyes.
So the employees below are bound to be in an awkward position.
However, there was no sign of regret on Tuning’s face.
“Hey, isn’t your head working?”
“yes?”
“I told you, there are a lot of promising candidates in this tutorial.”
“Of course I know that. But what does that have to do with this?”
“He’s the one who took down Krak Katlak after the hungry ogre. What would you do next?”
“Of course… … Ah!”
The man opened his eyes wide as if he had realized something. Now he understood why Tuning had given him the unprecedented reward of a tutorial pass.
“I’m going to go hunting for players!”
“Yeah. I don’t know about other players, but if that guy runs wild and kills a few promising players… … .”
“The protests of the gods must be no joke.”
The Tower’s management office is a separate force from the tower, but due to the nature of the management office, it cannot help but be influenced by the constellations.
Because of that, we’ve maintained a good relationship so far, showing a little understanding towards each other, but what if the gods start making complaints at the Tutorial Management Office?
Clearly, those at the top won’t stay still either.
At the very least, it could lead to suspension. In severe cases, it could lead to disqualification.
“Besides, even if we get to the next stage early anyway, nothing will change.”
“The topic of the fourth chapter of the tutorial is clearly… … .”
“Siege.”
“I see. A siege is just a stage for preparing for a defensive battle anyway, so even if you complete the occupation in advance, it won’t have much of an impact.”
“okay.”
“Oh, as expected, you are the team leader!”
“Watch and learn. A little.”
“Yes, team leader!”
As his subordinate continued to flatter him, Tuning’s shoulders rose.
It was truly a decision befitting the position of team leader to completely eliminate the risk factor by giving a gift with empty contents.
But none of these people knew.
This is the ‘plan’ that Se-un prepared based on his memories before his regression.

“Wow, that’s amazing!”
“It really got smaller!”
-The constellation, ‘Black Bird’, raises its beak, saying that this is a simpler task than pecking at an earthworm.
– The constellation flaps its wings, telling itself to turn back to its original state as much as it wants.
The makeshift facilities and catapults that had been installed at the base, things that the twin sisters had made, were reduced to the size of toys.
Looking at the messages from the two constellations, it seemed to be part of their power.
Well, since they were both people with considerable power in architecture and construction, it wasn’t at all strange that they had such abilities.
Thanks to this, no structures remain where the stronghold once stood, except for the charred remains of the battle.
but.
“Huh? This isn’t working?”
“It’s meaningless if the number of carriages decreases!”
-The constellation, ‘Black Bird’, turns its back on the contractor, saying that the only thing it can reduce is the manufactured goods.
-The constellation, the ‘giant bird’, quietly folds its wings, saying that there is nothing it can do.
The carriage had to keep being pulled, because while the carriage itself could be shortened, the load on it could not be shortened.
But, this has made it a lot easier to operate, especially.
‘The catapult will be helpful in the next chapter too.’
The topic of the fourth chapter of the tutorial was ‘Siege Warfare’.
Originally, catapults were a type of siege weapon made for siege warfare, so they would be quite useful when destroying castle walls or conducting person-to-person attacks.
“Are you ready?”
“Yes, but how do you plan on getting over this cliff?”
“Yeah, that’ll solve it.”
Seun took out his tutorial pass.
Although the instructions for use were not written down separately, I knew quite well how to use this item.
Chiiik-
“What is Seun-ssi… … .”
Cheeeeek!
The moment Seun tore the ticket, the tickets held by the people at the base were also torn as if they were one body.
The ticket, torn in two, disappeared in a blue glow, and the remnants of light gathered to create a system message.
[Tutorial Chapter 3 – Collision]
-You have done an excellent job with your assignment.
-10,000 points will be awarded to all survivors of the crash.
-Congratulations! You’ve successfully completed the third chapter of the tutorial!
– An additional 5,000 points will be awarded to all participants who pass the tutorial early by meeting the hidden conditions!
-‘Tutorial Chapter Four – Attack’ begins.
As expected, the third tutorial ended and the fourth chapter began.
Along with him, something strange happened on the cliff behind the stronghold.
Kookookookook!
“This……?”
Sheer cliffs and sharp winds swirl around, bringing to mind large and small boulders flying around, connecting them.
The boulder stretched out in the shape of an arch, then stopped moving by grabbing the cliff on the other side.
For a bridge made of a series of boulders, the surface above it was unusually clean. It was as if the bridge had been there from the beginning.
Strangely enough, the cold wind that was blowing from the cliff avoided the area around the bridge.
-Go to the other side of the cliff to complete the fourth chapter of the tutorial.
“let’s go.”
“Oh, yes! Is everyone ready?”
“Brother, let’s go together!”
As everyone was surprised by the sudden phenomenon, Se-Woon came to his senses and took the lead and climbed onto the bridge.
When I turned my head slightly, it seemed as if an endless abyss was sucking my body in right below.
It’s a good thing the wind isn’t blowing, but if you misstep even by accident, all your efforts up to this point will be in vain and you will lose your life.
“Everyone, be careful! Those of you who are close to the carriage, hold on to it, and everyone else, hold hands and move!”
People knew it and were hesitant to set off, but under Yu Seo-ah’s instructions, the carriage set off and people slowly started to move their feet.
“Brother, when will this tutorial end?”
“I don’t know either.”
“Oh, I just want to take a break! If I had known I would quit drinking and smoking like this, I would have spent a lot of money and enjoyed all the fun things!”
Seun knew. The tutorial consisted of five chapters, so it wasn’t long before they entered the tower.
However, I couldn’t just explain this to Park Jeong-pil.
There was no reason to hide the fact that I had regressed, but I didn’t want to tell people around me and make them anxious.
When my ears started hurting from Park Jeong-pil’s endless chatter next to me.
“Pyuyo-!”
A group of monsters appeared with a sharp cry.
“Damn, I thought I’d be a little more relaxed this time!”
“Everyone stop and gather around the carriage… … .”
“Miss Seo! Here, the road is too narrow, we can’t form a formation!”
“Then, retreat from the outskirts of the bridge for now! Falling off the bridge is more dangerous than being attacked and getting hurt!”
“Oh, I understand!”
Yu Seo-ah skillfully led people.
Whether it was her nature or the ability to command that she gained through her contract with Baal, her commanding skills were improving day by day.
Even this time, despite the variable of narrow terrain, he was not at all flustered and modified his instructions.
Meanwhile, Se-Woon pierced through the sharp wind and carefully examined the monster that had approached the bridge.
‘Kalbaram repair.’
The wings spread wide were over two meters long, and each feather looked as sharp as a blade.
If you just brush against that feather in a quick glide, one of your limbs will be easily severed.
Even without that, they pose a huge threat just by flapping their wings from a distance.
Because of the narrow nature of the bridge, if you are pushed even a little by their wind, you will fall into an abyss with no bottom.
Even Se-woon can’t stand such a troublesome opponent.
-The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[ rain shower ]
– A range magic that causes rain showers around the caster using the water magic of the Blue Tower.
Choaaaah-!
As a blue light shimmered from Se-un’s hand, rain poured down from the clear sky.
Rain shower.
It’s a magic that literally just makes it rain.
Since it is not an attack magic, it is rarely used alone, rather than in combination with other magic.
Why did Seun use this kind of magic here?
Yeah, that’s right.
“Phew, phew-”
Because rain is their weakness.
As if to prove it, the wet-winged, windswept eagles began to sway and fall downwards.
