Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 370

374. Tomb of the Dead

This place was one of the trials where Se-un had been very active.

Finding relics and choosing tombs, rather than hunting monsters, was a perfect goal for Se-un, who used the Journey Guide.

And that was still the case now that he had recovered the Journey Guide.

Rather.

‘I can broaden my range of activity this time.’

He was more confident in using the Journey Guide than before his regression.

Now, he could face stronger monsters that he couldn’t handle back then, move faster, and even fly with Turiq’s Wings.

He was planning to quickly pass through the three tomb-themed trials, but he couldn’t hide his excitement when he arrived on the 52nd floor.

[Yoo Seo-ah: Is everyone okay?]

[Baek Hyeon: Yes, the players we were protecting seem to have all returned to Lilac. What should we do?]

[Yoo Seo-ah: Well, we could go up to the next trial, but…]

[Kang Han-cheol: I’m staying to fight.]

[Yoo Seo-ah: Yes, honestly, I feel like it’s better for growing stronger since the difficulty has increased. Everyone can decide according to their individual situation.]

[Han Areum: Awesome, I’m getting experience just by standing still?]

[Han Da-un: Me too! My level has gone up a lot!]

[Park Jeong-pil: Hyungnim, where are you! I came up, please stay with me! It’s too scary here! Sniff.]

[Han Areum: That guy ran away.]

[Park Jeong-pil: Ran away! This is all to serve Hyungnim…]

It seemed that several anomalies had occurred on the 51st floor because of Se-un swallowing the giant, but all the Diablo Guild members were coping well.

They seemed to be enjoying the anomalies even more.

‘Should I go for now?’

He was itching to find something using the Journey Guide right away.

Just as he was about to take a step, a faint light appeared next to Se-un, and a figure emerged.

‘A player?’

Unlike the 51st floor, the 52nd floor was completely individual.

Because of this, players were randomly placed in this wide field, so their starting points would rarely overlap.

Besides, considering the situation on the 51st floor, there wouldn’t be many players who could come up to the 52nd floor.

Thinking this, he turned his head with curiosity, and a familiar face appeared.

“Oh my, I’m so lucky~”

“…Arcana?”

“Did you forget that you were going to call me Ana? Or are you pretending not to know?”

Arcana.

She was wearing a fancy, jet-black dress that was hard to imagine someone challenging a trial would wear.

Coming up to the 52nd floor meant that she had completed the goal of the 51st floor, but there was no undead flesh or bloodstains on her clothes.

She looked as relaxed as if she had come to a banquet, not a trial.

“…Okay, Ana. What’s going on?”

“What do you mean~? I just happened to run into Wolfie, right?”

“The 51st floor?”

“What more would I do there? I’m just going through the motions.”

Well, she was already a high-ranker who had climbed to the Eighth Shelter.

Even though her stats were reduced due to the penalty, there was nothing to gain on the 51st floor.

Probably not even on the 60th floor.

No, considering her skills, there would be no trial to stop her until the 70th floor.

“So, I was killing time, and then I heard that Wolfie was going up, so I came up too. And then, ta-da! We met, didn’t we?”

“Is that possible?”

“We wouldn’t have met if it wasn’t possible, right? I can’t interfere with the system~ I’m just lucky.”

– The Constellation, ‘The Bowing Crow,’ expresses interest, saying that her luck doesn’t seem to be from the incompetent goddess.

– The Constellation, ‘The Serpent Enclosing Jealousy,’ nods, saying that it understands why the incompetent goddess hasn’t let go of her yet.

Among the Constellations, Tyche [goddess of luck] was already being treated as an incompetent goddess.

Well, even though she had joined Se-un’s Diablo Guild, which could be said to be an enemy of Olympus, Tyche was still holding onto her as an apostle.

He was curious about what she was thinking, even though her involvement was blocked by the regulations of the Administration Office.

‘Is it really a coincidence?’

Luck.

He didn’t know how much that power, which was close to causality, affected the Tower, but seeing her, he thought that luck might affect the trials or the system itself.

Anyway.

“There’s nothing good for you if we go together, right?”

Now that he had entered the 52nd floor, he was thinking of finding a hidden piece that he hadn’t found before his regression.

He might be able to find a decent reward on the 52nd floor.

He was also planning to kill monsters and provide food for Beelzebub, so there was nothing she could do to help, even if she stuck by his side.

Rather, it would only be a hindrance if she helped him hunt monsters.

…That’s what he thought.

“Oh my, I’m not going to do anything~”

“What?”

“What would I do on the 52nd floor anyway~? I’m only interested in Wolfie.”

From the beginning, she wasn’t trying to do anything. She just wanted to observe Se-un.

Even if she didn’t do anything and just observed, he would prefer to be alone rather than being bothered by her…

“Meteorite, you haven’t forgotten, have you?”

“How long are you going to keep bringing that up?”

“Ah, and Hero’s Leap too!”

“Haa…”

Se-un had no choice but to nod.

Right now, he owed her 2 billion just from the auction house.

If he added the meteorite that he gave her without any compensation, she definitely had the right to ask Se-un for a favor.

She didn’t say she would be a hindrance, so he had no choice but to take her with him.

Se-un gestured for her to follow and moved forward.

“But where are you planning to explore this time?”

“A place I didn’t go to before the regression… no, a place I couldn’t go to. First, I need to find out the location of this place.”

Yoo Seo-ah and Arcana.

They were the only people Se-un could naturally mention the fact about his regression to.

He was somehow uncomfortable with her constantly clinging to him, but he felt a little more comfortable being able to talk to her like this.

“You can’t hide your true nature~ Do you know that? Your face right now is similar to when you used Hero’s Leap.”

“It was a skill that was like my everything before the regression.”

He looked around, but all he could see were gloomy tombs.

Tombs of that shape were the most common sight on the 52nd floor, so they weren’t an indicator to pinpoint the location.

Even when he recalled his memories from before the regression and activated the Journey Guide, it only gave him a vague direction because of the distance.

Still, since that was the only clue, he moved his feet following the vague direction.

And not long after.

“Fire- Ball-“

Whoosh!

As if welcoming him to the 52nd floor, a barrage of hot flames flew towards him.

After wielding Durandhal to lightly cut through the flames, he saw a skeleton holding a staff, chattering its teeth.

‘Skeleton Mage.’

It wasn’t just one enemy. Immediately following, dozens of fireballs flew at once.

At least twenty or more Skeleton Mages were ambushing him.

Certainly, the difficulty had increased compared to the 51st floor.

But.

– According to the mystery of the Red Tower, the range of ‘Turn Undead’ is expanded.

– According to the mystery of the White Tower, the attribute power of ‘Turn Undead’ is increased.

It was just an undead after all.

The mages crumbled in the bright light of Turn Undead.

The mages who were positioned in the rear managed to block the light by deploying shields of darkness called Dark Shields.

Swoosh-

While they were casting Dark Shield, Se-un’s sword rushed in and collapsed them in an instant.

“Oh my, can I have this?”

“Will that be enough for you?”

“There’s nothing else to get here anyway~ I just need to get the qualification to pass.”

He defeated the last mage and picked up a brooch that had fallen.

Seeing that there was even a photo inside, it seemed to be an item that evolved into a higher grade through a quest.

It would turn into a decent item if he developed it, but it was only A-grade.

It was a very good item considering he only defeated a group of mages, but Se-un shook his head.

‘I can’t be satisfied with just that.’

The only relic he could take from the 52nd floor was one.

He was planning to pick at least an S-grade reward and choose a tomb that corresponded to it to go up.

It might look like trash to Arcana, but the best item he could get here was a decent item for Se-un.

“Suit yourself.”

“Ah, and also!”

“What is it?”

“Can you take Ruin out? I want to play with him after a long time~”

Woong-

The stigma reacted immediately to her words.

Normally, he would feel Ruin’s emotions to some extent, but now he seemed to feel both regret and relief at the same time.

He didn’t know what Ruin thought of her, but he couldn’t summon Ruin until he had digested the giant’s level to some extent.

“No.”

“Why~? Honestly, playing with me isn’t just playing, right? Wolfie must have felt it too.”

“It’s another reason. I can’t take him out right now.”

“Too bad~”

What she said was true.

Ruin was growing little by little through his ‘play’ with her.

He clearly recognized his limits, the range of his command recognition increased, and his independent judgment also increased.

While he was talking with Arcana for a while.

“Ker-rwa-ra-rack-!”

A bizarre howl was heard, and a long creature appeared.

Deathworm?

No.

Scales as hard and flexible as steel, and fins as sharp as gears. Corrosive poison was flowing out between the scales.

It was a type of undead also known as Hrökkval [a monstrous serpent from Norse mythology].

‘A guardian.’

Looking behind where it appeared, he saw a tombstone protruding in the middle of a pond-like body of water.

That was also a type of tomb.

This Hrökkval was the guardian protecting that tomb, and it seemed to have sensed that Se-un had invaded the tomb’s territory.

‘I’m not planning to enter that tomb, but…’

He felt the Journey Guide pointing to a relic inside its belly.

However, what Se-un was paying attention to wasn’t it.

‘Hrökkval, huh…’

Thanks to revisiting Lilac several times before his regression and re-exploring the 52nd floor, he faintly remembered the Hrökkval and the pond tomb.

Hrökkval was an extremely rare undead even in the trials of the 52nd floor. In addition, that curved tombstone was especially memorable.

It seemed like he could find his way by starting from here.

To do that.

– Through internal energy, the third form of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, Blood Wolf Assault, is enhanced.

Defeating that guy was the priority.

As Se-un wielded his sword, along with Arcana’s cheers from behind.

– The Constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince,’ swallows 침을 [Korean word for 침을 삼키다, meaning ‘swallows 침을’].
