31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 372)
Lucia suddenly appears and catches Snow Seol by surprise..
“…I killed it?”
“Ah, yes! Because it bothered me.”
Kang Seol glared at her..
Rather than being particularly hostile, it would be more accurate to say that we are wary..
‘I killed it?’
I wasn't really interested in latecomers, but I just wanted to find out information because they could be a variable in breaking through the gateway..
But, I never thought I would hear that he killed it himself..
“Don't get me wrong, they got eaten.”
“…It was something like that..”
I quickly understood the situation thanks to Lucia's explanation..
‘In other words, it would be better to say that the federal forces were destroyed as soon as they arrived..’
I didn't know that the level of personnel composed was poor compared to the conquerors. Or maybe I was not prepared enough because I thought the labyrinth was funny..
This was a pitch-black labyrinth that was dangerous even for those who had passed through it once..
‘But how do you see ahead??’
Snowfall caught her eye..
A ring that combines the Seal of Blood and the Seal of Plague. it was shining.
‘Well, it looks like the seal had some good effects..’
If we assume that, it is completely understandable that she adapted smoothly to the labyrinth..
“Take me too, beyond this place.”
“The next gateway is….”
“I know, so you're asking the doctor. I really won't bother you!”
Kang Seol looked at Shin Rip..
I wanted to hear what his judgment was..
In the first place, the original plan was to enter the snowfall hall at the gateway..
“The more souls that enter the gate, the better or worse it can be..”
It was an obvious statement, but I was still curious about the reason..
“why is that so?”
“Because dreams can get mixed up.”
“…They say it's mixed up.?”
“Yes. Because the soul's dreams are mixed up, if someone brings out the nightmare, you may face greater danger than you would otherwise face. However, as soon as even one person realizes that they are in a dream and leaves, the entire dream world collapses..”
“…….”
“In other words, you may experience more risk, but you will also be given more opportunities in return. It is natural that the power you gain will also increase accordingly. and… This is guessed through insight, but it seems that achievement at the next gate depends on the quantity and quality of souls that enter the gate..”
Snowfall was deeply worried..
For a moment, I thought that if the achievement varies depending on the number of souls, it might be a good idea for Shin Rip and Shin Hyeon to join in as well..
“Don't be overconfident, there are no people who can show their full strength in their dreams. You have to crawl up from the floor with nothing in your body. If you do it well, you can achieve great achievements, but do you think you will get that achievement for free??”
It's not wrong..
“And, there are still plenty of guys who will follow you when you enter. Look over there.”
flinch…
Sisters wearing masks leaning against a stone pillar and watching.
It was Belian and Veldre who were dispatched by the Holy Relics Association..
“Ooh, we're going in too.”
“…….”
“It's a temporary truce... Anyway, I have to get out of the labyrinth.….”
Now, I just resigned myself to explaining that it was dangerous because it would only hurt my mouth..
Actually, at their level, even if their souls increased, I wouldn't worry too much..
Shinhyeon asked.
“Hehehe… Are you going to take them all? The dream world is so huge that you may not encounter them even once... It may bring you dreams more terrible than yours..”
snowfall laughed.
“There's nothing more terrible than my dreams.”
“…Are you sure??”
“yes.”
If a dream related to the gods pops up, it will increase the difficulty of the gateway to an inestimable level..
‘But what about that… Since I've overcome it, it probably won't show up..’
The probability of having a dream where one was swayed by the gods was extremely low. This is because in the process of obtaining the night raven, I overcame my sima..
‘Someone else's dream would be better... hmm?’
Pak…
Someone pulled the cloak..
this feeling.
It's him.
“…Shinyu.”
Sasak…
- Don't go, it's dangerous.
Shin Rip and Shin Hyeon laughed when they saw his hand scribbling something on the floor..
“Hi-Hi… I guess I don't want you to go..”
“This can be happen.”
Kang Seol said to Shin Yu.
“I'm going.”
- I can't protect you.
“are you okay. That's how I got here.”
Shin Lip said quietly.
“Shinyu, would you like to go with me?.”
Shinyu responded by bending his index finger in the direction of his hand and asking if he was referring to himself..
It seemed like it meant 'me?'.
“We remain here. If you pass the next gate, it will be open for a while anyway, so I'll see you again then..”
“If the ordeal continues, we need someone to stay at the gate and come up with something to do..”
Shin Rip nodded and said to Shin Yu..
“So, Shinyu, you go..”
After thinking for a moment, Xinyu quickly waved his palm up and down..
I meant to understand.
Shin Lip placed his hand on Kang Seol’s shoulder and said.
“Kangseol, it doesn’t matter what kind of person you are or how you’ve lived. The dream demon will make you live in a completely different world. You could be a vagabond there or a war slave. He could be a herbalist or a gunner who makes a living from hunting..”
infinite possibilities.
“A new life will open. Find yourself in it. No, find your scattered pieces.”
Snowfall nodded and turned back..
Sisters Belian Veldre, Lucia, and even Shinyu.
Kang Seol looked at the group for a moment, not knowing if they would meet in their dreams, and then walked away..
Kugugoogung Palace…
The second gate has been opened.
[Unprecedented results were achieved at the gateway to darkness..]
[Earn additional rewards.]
[Settlement is made halfway through the long journey..]
[Obtain the deposits of false nature.]
[The grace of blood falls.]
[The grace of darkness falls.]
[The grace of light falls.]
[The grace of the storm falls.]
[Grace applies to the following gateways:.]
……
Seueuugh…
Kang Seol and the group set foot at the gate..
Kugoong-!
At that moment, it felt like the world evaporated and the ground beneath my feet disappeared..
[A sudden adventure ‘Someone’s Dream’ occurs.]
[This adventure is very dangerous.]
……

Dreams may be created by human preferences..
Throw away what you don't like and keep what you like close by.….
Boring and dull daily life has already passed, like the scene outside the train..
Time in the dream was that fast..
Tuk-tuk…
“ah!”
“It's a surprise! What are you thinking, Seol??”
“Oh, nothing. She was blank for a moment..”
“…What is it.”
“Yurim, what about you? sit down?”
Yurim.
This is the kid who helped me adapt to this place..
Even though his baby teeth haven't even fallen out yet, we were sold together here and we had a lot of trouble together..
“Let’s go to sleep now. Tomorrow we will be mobilized for unloading. If you get sleepy, you will die..”
“…If it's because of unloading, I'll die even if I'm not particularly sleepy..”
“That's true, but….”
Bang bang bang-!
Someone knocked hard on the door.
“Babies, not shut up!?”
“…….”
“…….”
Surveillance was tight here..
Maybe even more than a prison for criminals..
This is the port of Melton, where the whip is closer than the law..
Yurim and I were both abandoned by our parents, captured by a slave trader, and sold as slaves at the port..
The use of children for labor was taboo in Melton..
Even if slaves were mobilized, they could only be made to work after they were older..
‘I don't keep all of that in mind here, but….’
First of all, legally, it was protected. At least if I could get out of here..
The smiling face of Melton, who rules everything from loading docks to gambling dens and brothels..
Surprisingly, his smiling face is what calls him..
‘If it weren't for that guy….’
If that guy wasn't there, would Yurim and I's lives have been a little different??
I wonder if I might have been a slave with better treatment..
No one knew the identity of the smiling face that owned this place. Even the excavation of the impression was not properly known..
Twaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
The sound of a whip was heard..
Someone made a mistake at the loading dock..
‘who… ah!’
Usually, in these cases, Yurim was the target..
“Who told you to fool around?!”
“No, I wasn't fooling around. Just because it's too heavy….”
“Don't shut up!”
Twaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
“Ahhhh-!”
A whip passes through Yurim’s body..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
Once again, Yurim, who could not resist, was about to be whipped..
“Yurim!”
Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
“Ughhh….”
“Seo, Seol-ah….”
“This guy. What are you doing?!”
“Well, stop it… Yurim is….”
“How dare you protect me in front of me??”
The overseer rolled up his sleeves and brandished his whip..
Whoa whoa…
Wow!-!
“Ahhhh-!”
Something terrible crossing the backboard.
“iced coffee….”
Another scar appears on an already existing scar..
“lowlife like you….”
Whoa whoa…
Wow-!
“…uh?”
“…Don’t hit Seol..”
A series of amazing things happened today.
Yurim held the whip with her bare hands..
The grip was torn, but thanks to the exquisite distribution of force, no fingers were cut off..
‘How can you do that??’
Someone came next to the supervisor who was glaring with an absurd expression..
‘ah… That guy….’
That guy standing next to the supervisor seems like a good person to others..
But to myself….
“What's going on??”
“Karuna, these guys are playing around.….”
A glance at oneself.
I know that look.
