((Then I’ll explain the rules!!))

The only Koreans gathered together were Sua and I, and the remaining 98 people gathered in the square were all foreigners.

((There are a total of 25 waves from 1-1 wave to 1-5 wave!!))

((You can defend by selecting the wave difficulty level one per day!! It is impossible for the currently selected team to escape without replacement!!))

((For reference, the wave to be defended each day is decided by majority vote!!))

((You can sleep and eat here!! 2 people per room!! Then I hope you all survive!!))

‘I can’t go back home.’

…

Yeonwoo and I worked together and swung our swords at the guild leader.

A battle that could be described as spectacular was surprisingly our victory.

“Thank you both for your hard work. You are strong as expected.”

“I won because it was a sparring match. If it had been a real fight, I would have died right away.”

“Are you comforting the loser? You have a big heart, Cheonhwi.”

“That’s right. I plan to receive it later too.”

“Yes?”

Anyway, I received the privilege of a week’s vacation and returned home with my older sister, Seolhee.

Just before returning home, Yeonwoo repeated the words, ‘Brother, you won today. You have never lost today,’ but I couldn’t stop our happy time with words like that.

A late night when Nyamu was asleep.

A strange moaning sound is heard from Seolhee’s sister’s room.

In my own way, I quite liked the fact that I was the one taking the lead instead of taking the lead.

A man and a woman are lying in bed consoling their defeat for about an hour and enjoying wise man time.

“Whoa.. what should I do for a week?”

“Do you want to go to the amusement park?”

“Oh, that’s good. I wonder what else Nyamu can ride with.”

We had a happy, imaginative conversation.

“There are already over 1,000 missing people overseas who have entered the 5th floor and have not returned.”

“Everyone probably wants the full compensation.”

Full compensation.

The country that clears the floor with the boss first receives a much better overall reward than other countries.

After that fact was announced, the news that greedy hunters in the country where we had cleared the 3rd floor entered the 5th floor first and then disappeared was causing a lot of issues.

“Now that I think about it, I’m curious. What are the conditions for the 5th floor?”

“If you look at the fact that the person who went in for 2 weeks hasn’t come out and is listed as missing, it’s not safe.”

“Sseuhum.. I’m curious.”

“Do you want to come back for a while?”

“Is that okay?”

“If it gets dangerous anyway, just behave chivalrously.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

“Just take a quick look around for 2 hours and then come back and tell me what happened.”

“2 hours okay.”

I got up from the bed, briefly kissed Seolhee, put on my clothes and items quietly so as not to break the tree, and picked up my phone with the auxiliary battery connected.

“Sister, if I don’t come back within 2 hours, please call the guild leader for help. ”

“You have to come quickly before you wake up.”

“It’s a carrot.”

So we entered the unknown 5th floor.

The documents related to the 5th floor had not been released yet, and I had no doubt that if I brought information from the 5th floor, it would be of great help to Hyesung, so I entered the 5th floor without hesitation.

((Welcome!! You are Cheonhwi?!!))

As soon as you enter the 5th floor, you will see a place where hundreds of people are waiting, beyond a transparent door with strange numbers such as 11/100, 29/100, 99/100, 40/100, and 0/100 written on it.

((Just select one group and enter!!))

There was a little fairy who told us that we could enter one of the rooms with each number written on it.

At first glance, it looked like up to 100 people had to gather together to solve something.

((100 people as a team!! The purpose of the 5th floor is to stop the monsters coming!!))

The little fairy seemed to have noticed my doubts and brightly gave me the correct answer to the part I was worried about.

That’s why it was awkward.

“Uh.. is it okay to tell me that?”

((Huh?!! Wow..!! Are you offended that I gave a spoiler..?!!))

“No, it’s not like that, it’s just that Top never told me how to clear it, but it’s a bit awkward when he suddenly tells me like this.”

((Aha!! Starting from the 5th floor, all of you from Korea will be able to meet me again and again!! Also, since the 5th floor tells you the original clear conditions, I am letting you know in advance so that you can just select it!!))

From the 5th floor, you can join the little fairy.

It felt friendlier than other floors with their own uncertain clearing conditions, but the reason for the friendliness seemed to be because it had a completely different level of difficulty than the other floors. On the other hand, I felt uneasy and slowly looked at the people visible through the transparent door.

The first room with 11 people.

Suddenly the number changed to 12, with one more person added, but their equipment did not look good.

However, it seemed like there was no room for me as they seemed to welcome the new person as soon as they saw them, probably because they knew each other.

Second room with 29 people.

It’s ambiguous.

If you had been able to check each person’s rating, you might have noticed that there were a few people wearing items that looked good, but they were far away from each other and were keeping each other in check.

‘You’ll get tired when you go in there.’

And the third room with 99 people.

It was a group that looked like it would have 100 people when I joined and could immediately start fending off monsters.

‘I have to go back within 2 hours, so I’ll take a bite and then go back… Sua?’

A place where there was an unusually large crowd of people at that time.

I noticed a woman standing there.

The men who were cornered and surrounded by a distance of less than 1 meter tried to approach Su-a, but the woman was forming a circular barrier to block them with a defensive spell.

And the only hunter I know who can use defensive spells was Sua, a healer.

The defense spell in the skill book in the 3rd floor library was a skill that only healers could learn…

There were 99 people, and if only one more person entered, the wave would begin. I went into the room where I could see a woman who I assumed to be Su-ah.

As soon as I stepped into the transparent void, my vision changed to an empty space where people were gathered.

He turned his head towards the corner where people were gathered, frantically drew his sword, and started running while screaming like a madman.

“Ugh!!!”

When some crazy guy was swinging his red sword around and screaming, each of them raised their weapons and started to keep me in check, as if there was still a Hunter Jjambop, but even though they looked like crazy people, there was no way they could beat me, who had sparred with an S-ranker today and defeated him.

He easily dodges the weapons wielded by the hunters, and sometimes strikes weapons that fly in an unavoidable trajectory.

As we continued to move forward without stopping, people who sensed the difference in skill began to make way for us like the miracle of Moses.

The men who were pressuring the woman in the far corner were still pushing the protective shield with their force ignorantly, as if they were not interested in what was happening behind them.

“Do not cover your face.”

He grabbed the two men who were pushing the shield by their necks and threw them back.

I couldn’t see the woman in the corner because the big guys were blocking her view from the front.

Now I was able to see the person who was blocking the incoming hunter with a defensive spell in a corner where he could no longer escape because he was blocked by an invisible transparent membrane.

She was right.

“..?”

Suah was embarrassed by the man who suddenly flew away, and tears began to form in her eyes.

Soon, Su-a realized again that she needed help and swung her sword sharply to remove the men who were pushing the shield away from the shield.

The people who had been keeping me in check suddenly started making noise when I appeared.

It was neither Korean nor English, but a language I had never heard before, but little by little, I heard a voice say my name in a sloppy pronunciation, as if it recognized me.

People who recognized me began to hesitate and step back.

Even people who didn’t know my face, perhaps even had heard of me by name, gradually walked away from us with surprised expressions.

At that sight, Su-a, who had retrieved the defense spell with trembling legs, collapsed into her seat.

Sometimes, when she used her magic power to its limit to heal people, Su-ah collapsed a few times.

Healing and buffing used much more magic power than we used, so Sua was not very efficient with magic power.

The fact that Su-ah collapsed like that meant that she had used a spell to defend herself almost to the limit.

“Are you okay?”

Out of concern, I turned around and asked Su-ah, who was sitting down and wiping away her tears.

Soon, Su-a, who must have had hiccups, whimpered and answered in a tearful voice that she was okay.

“What happened?”

“No..sigh..”

“Why were you wearing a protective shield?”

“Suddenly… people reached out to me and touched my butt… and… so…”

‘ah..’

“I was running away, but I got stuck in a corner… and…”

Su-ah must have remembered the situation again and started crying.

“…”

Leaving behind her crying, I frantically grabbed my sword sharply.

“From now on, leave it to me.”

“…”

“Because I won’t send even a single ant baby to you.”

Blue magic began to circulate around the sharp blade.
