In the darkness that was like an abyss.
I was falling endlessly.
Swoosh-.
The faster I fell, the more my body felt like it was being crushed.
If I hit the ground like this, my body would turn into a lump of meat.
But there was a way to survive.
‘……I'm sorry, but.’
I took Gu poison out of my arms, where he was sleeping.
Gu poison opened his eyes wide at the sudden feeling of floating.I had to act before he could figure out what was going on.
Swish-.
I tied Gu poison tightly to the hilt of the dagger.
Gu poison clicked his tongue as if his body was uncomfortable, but I had no intention of letting him go.
If I die, he'll be trapped here and die too.
He'll have to put up with this level of discomfort.
Even though he's a creature made of mana, he'll dry up and die if he doesn't get mana from me.
‘So hang in there.’
Gu poison trembled once as I stared at him intently.
…….
Then he looked into my eyes as if he was gauging something.
Gu poison didn't resist, as if he had confirmed something from me.
He simply left his body in my hands.
Swoosh-.
Like that, the two of us fell further and further down.
And soon after, the ground began to come into view.
Unlike in the air, the closer I got to the ground, the more light came into view.
Some kind of device in the basement was painting the surroundings with color.
So the chances of landing safely increased a little.
And when the ground was finally close to me.
Thud-.
I slammed the dagger that Gu poison was tied to into the wall.
Fortunately, the dagger dug perfectly into the wall.
Now, let's just wait a little longer.
Like that, just before I hit the ground, I spread out the arrow and initiated the position exchange.
“Designation.”
Move-.
That was the moment.
The positions of Gu poison, who was tied to the handle of my dagger, and me were reversed.
The pressure that had been crushing my body also disappeared.
Thud.
I quickly grabbed the handle of the dagger.
Unable to bear my weight, the dagger began to slide down the wall.
Clang, clang, clang-!
The dagger and the wall made a deafening screeching sound as they came into contact.
On the one hand, I frowned, but on the other hand, I worked tirelessly to reduce my body's speed.
Thanks to that effort, I was able to land on the ground.
“Fortunately, you fell a bit later.”
It was the moment I reached out and grabbed Gu position, who was about to fall to the ground.
Clench-.
Gu poison bit my hand hard.
It didn’t show its fangs, and it seemed to be some kind of sign of dissatisfaction.
For a moment, the thought crossed my mind that if I didn’t appease it, it might tell Crete everything that had happened so far.
“I’m sorry.”
I gave it a drop of mana coated with the darkness attribute.
…….
The guy who had been glaring at me started licking the mana drop.
Gu poison, who seemed to like the mana that was thicker than before, soon closed its eyes.
It looked like it was in a much better mood after filling its hungry stomach.
The guy yawned once and went into my pocket.
‘I barely managed to appease it.’
Only then did I let out a sigh of relief.
And I looked around.
Orgon’s underground passage.
A damp and humid feeling pressed down lightly on my shoulders.
Splash-.
As I took a step, the water rippled.
Orgon’s underground passage looked like a sewer.
The water level was up to my ankles, and things like moss were growing here and there on the walls.
‘Are the ripples going forward?’
I muttered as I watched the water flowing slowly.
The secret treasure I was looking for would be at the end of the water stream.
Let’s follow the water stream.
A little time passed like that.
Thump-.
A shapeless black object that was neither liquid nor solid thumped.
‘A monster?’
I narrowed my eyes.
I wasn't scared because I was familiar with its appearance.
Black Slime.
It was the identity of the monster blocking the path of the underground passage.
“Now I get to see a proper monster.”
I felt a small sense of excitement.
Since coming to the Demon Realm, all I had seen were artificially created monsters.
Whether it was in the Bares' secret realm or the territory of the Undead.
But the Black Slime in front of me was different.
A real monster created naturally.
Normally, it should be normal to see natural monsters more often than artificial ones, but.
‘The situation wasn't favorable.’
Let's be satisfied with seeing a Black Slime for now.
Puck!
PuckPuck?
The Black Slimes seemed bewildered as if they hadn't seen a Demon in a long time.
Although they didn’t have sparkling eyes like in some games, I could feel it.
‘It would be better to attack first.’
It would have been right to kill them while they were still not moving.
Black Slimes were monsters that became more difficult to deal with the longer you waited.
That’s because they’re guys who emit poison when they sense a threat from their enemy.
And it’s an extreme poison that can kill dozens of humans with just a small amount.
I quickly organized my thoughts while gauging the distance between me and them.
‘It’s not a good choice to close the distance any further.’
I need to use a long-range attack.
If the poison touches my skin, I’ll melt away without a trace.
“Black Blade.”
I raised a black dagger above my hand.
An attack skill created by fusing the darkness attribute with mana.
It was a powerful skill that had killed the Sword Saint during the entrance exam.
I threw the black dagger towards one of the Black Slimes.
Screech……!
Boom-.
The Black Slime's body exploded upon being hit by the black dagger.
‘A failure.’
