Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 300

Stole the Demon God’s Warehouse-Episode 304 (300/675)

Episode 304

– Welcome to the Trial of the 43rd Floor.

– Theme: Labyrinth of Fire

– You have entered the legendary ‘Labyrinth of Myriad Paths.’

– Explore the labyrinth and find the entrance to the next labyrinth.

After feeding Beelzebub the sea anemone, Se-un immediately threw himself into the drain.

And arrived at the Labyrinth of Fire.

The water, which had been cold enough to freeze flesh just moments ago, was now as hot as hot spring water.

“Hoo.”

Se-un, who had emerged from the hot water, went ashore and dried himself with magic.

Looking around, he saw the familiar sight of the Labyrinth of Fire, which he had seen even before his regression.

Red lava flowed endlessly down the walls, as if warning people not to approach, and the air was so hot that it was difficult to breathe.

Whirr!

Flames erupted randomly from the holes in the floor, along with hot steam.

To think the environment changes so drastically from floor to floor.

There was a good reason why it became difficult for players to attack the labyrinth from the 41st floor onwards.

Not only was it difficult to fight monsters, but simply wandering around the labyrinth consumed a lot of stamina and was fraught with danger.

As before, before attacking the labyrinth, Se-un took out Belphegor’s diary.

– Constellation, ‘Jealous# Encircle# Snake’ is causing ### due to ####’s ##, so ### needs to be ##.

– Constellation, ‘### Bowing its He#’ frowns at the noise #covering ##.

Noise began to occur in the constellations’ messages.

Perhaps, because this place was separately provided to Belphegor by the Tower, it was difficult for the constellations to interfere.

It was a shame that it became difficult to use their powers, but there was nothing he could do. He had no choice but to move forward.

Before taking his first step, Se-un first unfolded the scroll in his arms.

– Wow, it’s warm. As rumored, this is a really good place to sleep? But I’m going to put my house down here…….

– Ah, right! I can turn it upside down! I need to call River!

Still a playful diary that is hard to find kindness in.

Judging from the contents, it seems like he is going to turn the fire upside down to connect the heating to the 45th floor, where Belphegor’s shelter exists…….

‘Turn the fire upside down, what does that mean?’

Besides, the name River written at the end.

It seems that Belphegor’s subordinate remains on this floor.

The problem was that it was difficult to find the way with just the hint he had found.

He was worried about whether he would have to wander around the labyrinth aimlessly.

‘What, here.’

Fortunately, there was no need to worry.

Contrary to the name of the labyrinth, there were no forks here.

Not even a single monster was to be seen.

– Constellation, ‘Hung## King#’ is ##ing in ### despair, making a ##ise.

Although there was a lot of noise, he could understand Beelzebub’s words.

‘I guess he’s just whining about being hungry. Anyway, it’s hot.’

How to deal with the heat, should he say?

When he took out the Undying Bow instead of Durendal in his hand, the chill rising from the bow cooled the heat.

The flames that randomly shot up from the holes in the floor also did not harm Se-un.

‘Is there really no fork?’

No matter how much he walked, the road was straight.

A straight labyrinth with not a single monster…….

It only resembled the Labyrinth of Fire he had seen before the regression in terms of terrain, but other than that, nothing was the same.

The only difference was that the heat was getting stronger as he went inside?

At that time.

Whoosh!

Bright red flames covered Se-un’s vision.

At this, Se-un’s eyes widened involuntarily.

If it was an ordinary flame, he wouldn’t be so surprised.

The only reason Se-un was surprised was that the flames covering his eyes were going backwards from top to bottom, not from bottom to top.

– Ah, right! I can turn it upside down!

As soon as he saw the flame, Belphegor’s diary came to mind. Surely, this must be the place Belphegor was talking about.

Along with that, a tired voice was heard from among the blazing flames.

“I’m tired to death, and even a rat is getting on my nerves.”

Whoosh!

The fierce flames that had been blazing downwards were aimed at Se-un and spewed out.

The heat itself was different from the flames spewing out from the floor.

Even Se-un would be in danger if he touched it even a little, so he immediately moved away and picked up the Undying Bow.

– Through internal energy, the first form of Subduing Demon Archery, Magic Piercing Arrow, is enhanced.

– According to the mysteries of the Supreme Heart Art, the power of martial arts is enhanced.

Shoo!

He couldn’t just stand still after being attacked.

Se-un tracked down the place where the voice was heard and the place where the flame flew from, and fired an arrow.

The ice arrow did not melt even in the hot flames and went forward proudly.

However, the result was not the sound of someone being pierced, but the roar of an angry person.

“You freezing bastard! Where are you shooting ice shards from? If the temperature here drops, will you take responsibility?”

“You attacked me first, so why should I care about that?”

“Hey, this young punk is talking back. This body has lived hundreds, no, thousands of years longer than you……”

Shoo-

“Stop! Stop it! Ugh, that’s why these young ones these days…….”

When he stopped talking and shot an arrow, the other person stopped talking and complained.

Judging from the situation, the identity of the voice clicking his tongue in the fire right now must be a person named River written in Belphegor’s diary.

He didn’t fully understand the situation yet, but going out in a low posture from the beginning was the worst thing to do.

“A guy I would have crushed to death with one finger in the old days. Ugh, tsk.”

Whoosh-

The flames that had been rising backwards subsided, creating a small path.

The path gradually lengthened, and the figure of a person standing at the end was revealed.

“Yes, kid. What brings you crawling all the way here? I’ll make an exception and deal with you.”

Indeed, is the subordinate of the Demon God an evil being?

River’s first appearance was extremely bizarre.

An old man with an upside-down head and palms spread out with the left and right reversed. Parts of his body were the opposite of ordinary people.

Se-un could roughly guess his ability by looking at the flames burning from the ceiling to the bottom and River’s appearance.

Reverse. It was obviously a troublesome type of ability.

“Where is the entrance to the next floor?”

“Yes, the goal of someone wandering through the labyrinth is obvious. But, do you know? What kind of place this is.”

“I know that the Demon God of Sloth is sleeping.”

“You came knowing that? Humans are really foolish. They can’t stand not touching a sleeping lion’s nose hairs. Ugh.”

River clicked his tongue and clenched his left hand. Then, flames swirled again in the passage Se-un had passed through.

River chuckled as if he had been caught, but Se-un did not waver. Even if the flames were aimed at Se-un as they were, there were many ways to escape.

“Then do you know that this body is a servant of that person? Would I really open the door?”

“You must want something, so you called me all the way here.”

“You’re quite smart for a human. For a human, that is, click, click.”

Whoosh!

When River clenched his hand again, the firepower became even stronger.

Whether it was a misunderstanding or not, as soon as the firepower increased, a unique fluffy smell, like that of drying blankets, seemed to rise from somewhere.

“Do you know how long I’ve been maintaining this flame here?”

Se-un shook his head.

Leviathan’s expulsion from the Tower was recorded in history books, albeit distorted, but information about Belphegor was extremely rare.

Perhaps Belphegor’s information is among the least of all the Demon Gods.

“Hundreds… thousands? Ugh, I don’t even remember. Anyway, I haven’t rested even once for that long.”

River continued, holding onto the flames flickering next to him with a tired expression.

It was hard to tell because his head was upside down, but his face was tiredness itself.

“Thanks to that person’s power, I don’t need to rest, but I’m supposed to be a servant of sloth. I have a punishment I made, so I think I’m atoning, but I want to rest a little.”

River’s face was tearful.

It was as if he was carrying all the world’s fatigue on his face.

“So, can you take over my work for a very short time? 5 minutes… no, even 3 minutes. Then I’ll open the way to the next floor.”

River looked up at Se-un and said.

The spread palms trembled as if they were holding the flames, and his legs looked like they would collapse at any moment like a weak old man.

A completely different appearance from what he had seen at first.

Looking at that appearance, Se-un nodded.

The moment a smile was about to bloom on River’s face, Se-un continued.

“Then, let’s make a contract as you just said.”

Scribble.

He made a small wound on the tip of his index finger with the blade of Durendal.

As red blood gathered at the end of the wound, River’s expression distorted fiercely, befitting a demon.

“How does a mere human know about a demon’s contract?”

“What makes you think I’d trust you to listen? Even if I do it for you, it’s obvious you won’t keep your promise.”

“Tsk, you’re a human I don’t like.”

What if Se-un hadn’t brought up the contract? He would have thrown away his pitiful expression from earlier and immediately betrayed him.

No matter how well he packaged it, he was still a demon after all.

The Demon Gods Se-un had dealt with were honest for demons, but that was only because they were too strong.

After all, lying is a way for the weak to bully the weaker or deceive those stronger than themselves.

“If you’re going to make a contract, 5 minutes isn’t worth it. Let’s make it a month. Instead, if I fail, I’ll take your soul.”

“Five minutes. The same as the first promise.”

“Can you even stretch your back in five minutes? You need to rest for a month to get some fresh air.”

“Five minutes.”

“Ugh, you don’t have any intention of negotiating? You have to slowly increase it to make negotiating fun. You’re terrible at trading.”

Negotiation has no meaning to a demon. Unless you’re very confident, it’s better to pretend to be stubborn like this.

However, River looked at Se-un with an arrogant expression and stuck to his stubbornness.

“Anyway, I’m not the one in a hurry here. I can just keep doing what I’ve been doing, but you can’t.”

Continuing with an arrogant expression and tone.

It was a statement that came out because he knew that all players had to climb the Tower.

However, he had one miscalculation.

He didn’t know why Se-un was going to meet the Demon God of Sloth.

Unless he knew that, the advantage was with Se-un.

“Well, I can just go back. I don’t think it’s that difficult to climb a labyrinth I’ve already passed through once.”

Se-un took out a return ticket from his pocket.

Basically, it was a ticket that could be said to be another opportunity for the player, so its price was considerable, but it was not a problem for Se-un.

He had already earned close to 150 million points from the fifth shelter alone.

“……No! Didn’t you come all the way here to see that person?”

“That was just an additional goal. It’s more profitable to try a new one than to waste a month here.”

“Do you think I wouldn’t notice your lies? Where did a mere human get the bluff from…….”

Jerk-

“Wa, wait a minute!”

How much of the ticket was torn, about 1/3?

River urgently called out to Se-un. Then, he raised one finger that was turned upside down as if looking in a mirror.

“How about a week?”

“Five minutes.”

“Ahem! Five minutes! That’s a bit too much! Okay, let me rest for at least three days.”

“Five minutes.”

“Are your ears blocked……!”

Jerk-

“Just one day, let me rest for just one day! You heard my situation, didn’t you?”

“Five minutes.”

He made several offers, but Se-un only repeated the same words.

As he did so, more than half of the ticket was already torn.

River’s proposal had already changed from units of days to units of time.

“Just one day! Just let me sleep for 24 hours! Please!”

“Five minutes.”

“Ugh, I feel like I’m talking to a doll! 12 hours! Or I’m done too! Just get lost!”

There was no more room to tear the ticket. Even so, River turned his head away from the ticket and cut off the words firmly.

It was obvious that he was anxious, but it seemed that he had no intention of reducing the time any further.

And at the same time.

“Call.”

Se-un’s expression, who had been maintaining a poker face and chanting the same words, also changed.
