Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 236

I Raided the Demon God’s Warehouse – 240

Chapter 240

The people of the Lilliputian Kingdom are fundamentally hostile to Players.

In fact, it’s only natural. Anyone would be terrified if giants dozens of times their size appeared in their home.

Even if they initially flee in fear, they will eventually attack the enemy to protect themselves.

But….

“Oh, indeed! Just as the prophecy foretold!”

“We are saved now!”

The scene before my eyes was completely different from what I remembered.

Instead of attacking or being afraid, they are welcoming the group with open arms.

‘Why are they doing this?’

Even though it’s just a fleeting memory, Se-un clearly remembered them.

The experience of gripping his weapon tightly, ready to fight monsters, only to suddenly become the villain was quite memorable.

‘What’s with the prophecy?’

Originally, the men of the village would come out and attack the Players, and then the elderly and children would flee towards the city.

The Players would inevitably be attacked while following those who were running away, and as a result, they had to endure a constant stinging pain as if being shot with toothpicks from behind.

However, no matter how I look at it, that’s not the atmosphere right now.

“Se-un, what’s wrong?”

“…It’s different from what I knew.”

“Yes? But, why….”

Why, indeed.

That’s the question Se-un wanted to ask.

However, there’s no way this change happened without a reason.

Se-un carefully recalled the differences between before the regression [a return to a previous state or time] and now.

“Hyung-nim [term for older brother or respected male figure], isn’t this thanks to me? Everyone seems to be acting like this after hearing my voice. Hehe.”

“No, so just stay still.”

“Yes.”

Park Jung-pil’s shouting would have had a negative impact, never a positive one.

There’s no way something like that would be written in the prophecy the Lilliputians are talking about.

Other than that, the only difference is that we entered the trial as a guild.

Before the regression, Se-un preferred solo play, and he cleared the 34th floor trial alone.

However, he heard that other clans at the time had a similar approach to the trial as Se-un.

‘Wait, guild?’

At that moment, something flashed through Se-un’s mind.

The disposition determined when the Diablo Clan was promoted to a guild.

– The Diablo Clan’s disposition is set as ‘Savior of Destruction.’

Although the word ‘destruction’ is attached, the savior disposition is the highest among the good dispositions.

If that disposition influenced them, this situation would make sense.

‘Then I can understand what I didn’t know.’

The Players on the 34th floor are, at best, gathered in clans.

It’s only after the fifth resting place that Players start to gather and grow into guilds.

The Diablo Clan achieved unbelievably high achievements one after another, meeting the promotion requirements early, but other clans are not like that.

In the end, the Diablo Guild is the first to challenge at the guild level on the 34th floor.

And that, combined with the extremely good disposition of ‘savior,’ caused this to happen.

That interpretation seemed to be the most plausible.

“Why are you standing still?”

“Can’t you hear us?”

“It’s because your voice is too small. Step aside!”

While Se-un was pondering, the Lilliputians couldn’t hide their joy.

The other guild members were just as bewildered, so they were all standing still. Yoo Seo-ah approached and whispered quietly.

“Se-un, what should we do? I think it would be good to agree with them for now.”

“I think so too.”

Since the Lilliputians welcomed us first, there was no reason to refuse.

Se-un looked at the ground and carefully knelt on one knee to match their eye level.

Even so, it was far from matching the Lilliputians’ eye level, but this movement itself was accepting their welcome.

“Nice to meet you.”

“Oh! He greeted us!”

“See, it was because your voice was too small! I’ll talk, so everyone step aside! Ahem!”

A sturdy-looking young man stepped forward from among the Lilliputians.

He cleared his throat as if confident in his voice, and indeed, his voice was loud enough to be heard by the guild members standing at the very back.

“Could you explain the situation first?”

“Don’t you know? You came down from the heavens to save us….”

“That’s right. However, we sensed the danger and came down in a hurry, so we haven’t grasped the detailed situation yet.”

“Ah, I see! Thank you! To come down so quickly for us! Indeed, as we heard in the prophecy, you are people with hearts as vast as your bodies!”

“You flatter us.”

“I’ll explain as much as I know! Our village is quite far from the city, so I don’t know the details….”

The Lilliputian happily continued the explanation in response to Se-un’s gentle reaction.

The Diablo guild members looked at Se-un with amazement.

They seemed taken aback by the sight of Se-un, who had always clashed head-on with enemies in an aggressive manner, kneeling down.

Yoo Seo-ah, who had been worried that Se-un might act recklessly, also widened her eyes and whispered in a small voice.

“You’re more skilled than I thought….”

“An aggressive attitude would be counterproductive with them.”

Se-un’s usual aggressive and straightforward behavior was only because it was the fastest and most efficient method.

Being gentle would only make him look weak to both Players and residents.

This wasn’t just a guess, but something he realized while climbing the Tower, caring for people before the regression.

But, it’s different now.

To them, the Diablo Guild is a ‘savior.’

He had no intention of kicking away the path to what anyone could see was a ‘hidden piece’ by showing an unnecessarily aggressive attitude.

“Our Diamond Kingdom was a peaceful place. We have never been attacked from the outside….”

The first thing that came out of the Lilliputian’s mouth was a boast about the kingdom.

Judging from the dignity emanating from that small face, they seemed to have considerable pride in the kingdom, even though they lived in such a small village.

There are abundant resources, so no one starves and there are no hardships.

Naturally, there was no need to fight, so the Diamond Kingdom didn’t need weapons or soldiers.

‘It’s different from what I knew.’

Before the regression, the Diamond Kingdom that Se-un saw was far from peaceful.

The atmosphere was so fierce that most of the residents could handle weapons.

In particular, the royal castle in front of the castle walls was armed with all sorts of weapons, making it difficult to approach despite the size difference.

And soon, he was able to hear the reason from the Lilliputian.

“However, ten years ago. Monsters began to climb from the cliffs that surround the kingdom on three sides….”

The 34th floor trial consists of cliffs on three sides and the castle walls, which are the destination of the trial. However, even though it is a Lilliputian kingdom, the scale is larger than expected, so Se-un had not been to the cliffs.

“We did our best to stop them. We made weapons and did our best to prevent them from climbing up.”

If it had been a head-on confrontation, they would have been defeated quickly, but the enemies had to climb the cliffs.

The Lilliputians dropped rocks or created thorny fences, using various methods to stop the monsters.

They somehow managed to hold on, but it seems that it is now reaching its limit.

“People are trembling with anxiety, and some are committing crimes, saying that it will be ruined anyway.”

Public order became a mess, and the atmosphere became grim.

It was a situation where they were barely able to concentrate on working together to stop the enemy, but they were even raising weapons against each other.

From what I’ve heard so far, it felt like there was no hope for the Lilliputian kingdom.

“Then, our job is to defeat the enemies climbing up the cliffs.”

“I dare to ask you. Please save our Diamond Kingdom!”

The Lilliputian, raising his already loud voice even louder, bowed his head. No, he bowed down as if prostrating himself.

The Lilliputians behind him also followed him and prostrated themselves towards the Diablo Guild.

They spoke energetically, but it seems the situation is really bad.

Se-un would have asked about the reward at this point, but….

‘If it’s the royal castle of the Lilliputian kingdom, there must have been something useful.’

After all, there’s nothing to gain from trading with the villagers, not the royal castle.

“Lead the way.”

“Thank you! Thank you so much!”

There are various ways to extract rewards anyway.

Se-un nodded, putting on the smile of a ‘savior’ who looked very happy.

The Diablo guild members who watched the scene could only stick out their tongues.

* * *

“Is it this way?”

“Yes, just keep going straight! And, I’m sorry, but could you lower your hand a little more? This is the first time I’ve been to such a high place.”

“Ah, I understand.”

At Se-un’s request, the Lilliputian immediately led the way to the cliff.

Of course, no matter how fast he ran, his speed was too slow, so he is now being carried on the palm of my hand.

At first, I put him on my shoulder, but that was too high and scary.

Well, from the Lilliputian’s point of view, Se-un’s shoulder would be as high as the top of an ordinary apartment building.

“Just a little further. The royal army is probably still pushing back the enemies.”

“Are the monsters coming up at all times?”

“No. They start to appear on the left cliff during the day and on the right cliff in the evening.”

‘Then the kingdom’s forces I saw before the regression weren’t all of them.’

Even though they are Lilliputians, the kingdom’s defense was stronger than I thought.

And that wasn’t their full strength.

It seems that the Lilliputian kingdom’s power is stronger than Se-un thought.

However, I didn’t think I would fail the trial.

“Ah, I see it over there!”

Even though the Lilliputian kingdom’s field is wide, it’s still a Lilliputian kingdom.

As I moved along the guide, I soon reached my destination.

‘Was it this high?’

The first thing I saw below the cliff was pure white clouds.

Even in places where the clouds were sparse, I couldn’t see the bottom properly.

The soldiers of the Diamond Kingdom that the Lilliputian mentioned were stationed in front of the cliff.

“Shoot! Aim for their fingers!”

“Just hold on a little longer! When the sun sets, they will stop moving too!”

“For the Diamond Kingdom!”

The Lilliputians were firing attacks towards the bottom of the cliff.

Although they are small, they are using siege weapons such as ballistae [large crossbows] and catapults in a fairly systematic manner.

The battle was so urgent that they didn’t even notice the Diablo Guild approaching.

I was wondering what kind of monsters they were fighting when.

“Kueeee-”

“Damn it, it’s up!”

“Retreat for now! Retreat and lure them into the trap!”

Finally, the monster revealed itself.

It may be a giant to the Lilliputians, but to Se-un, it was about the same height as an adult male, not particularly large or anything.

White eyes without pupils, and rotten, blue skin.

‘Is it non-lethal here too?’

Undead.

Among them, it was an extremely common undead, a zombie, that wasn’t particularly strong.

However, since the opponent was the Lilliputians, the zombie came up the cliff menacingly as if it had become a giant.

The upper body was already densely packed with toothpick-sized arrows, but it didn’t seem to care.

If it’s an undead that is already dead, dealing with it wouldn’t violate the trial’s goal of ‘non-lethal.’

Thinking so, Se-un immediately manifested magic.

– According to the mysteries of the Self-Reliance Tower, the casting speed of ‘Lightning Spear’ is increased.

Pajijik!

The lightning spear, which flew like a flash of light, pierced the zombie’s head in an instant.

The zombie, which the Lilliputians were struggling to deal with, was electrocuted and pushed off the cliff without withstanding a single attack.

The royal army, who watched this, turned their heads in the direction the lightning spear came from.

“The messenger of God has come!”

“Oh, finally!”

“We’re saved! God has answered our prayers!”

The royal army, like the Lilliputians Se-un first encountered, welcomed the Diablo Guild with enthusiastic cheers.
