𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟐: 𝐈 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐑𝐄𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐀𝐒 𝐀 𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐈𝐎𝐑, 𝐁𝐔𝐓 𝐈’𝐌 𝐈𝐍 𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐎𝐍? (2)
I screamed in a dimension that I didn’t know.
I’ll definitely escape from here.
But something happened that I didn’t expect at all. As if it was answering my scream.
“Durkaaaa!!”
A thunderous roar burst out of the black darkness on the opposite side. It was a fierce lion’s roar only a carnivore caught in a trap could make.
Oh. Was I not the only one who was caught?
Flash.
The lights on the ceiling of the hallway turned on, and the room, which had been dark all along, suddenly became bright. There was a prisoner screaming in the same pose as me, in the room across from where I was trapped.
“Hey! Were you caught too!”
My face briefly flushed with joy. But the moment I saw the prisoner’s detailed appearance, I felt a chill run down my spine.
“Qechaj ma Yodtiaľto. Vázni Kastardi!”
Pig-like face with gray bristles,
A muscular monster that looked a little over 2 meters tall was screaming loudly.
“. . . . . . . . . It’s not human?”
『Warrior’s Insight is activated.』
The moment the guy’s ferocious appearance came into view, an information window popped up in the air with a ring.
『Name: Chaka Dokginov』
『Race: Hobgoblin』, 『Class: Infantry』
『Title: New Prisoner』
『HP: 880』, 『MP: 50』, 『Strength: 103』, 『Agility: 21』
Where did this information window come from?
Don’t make me laugh. Is a hobgoblin that big? If I do well, can I even kill an ogre?
However, I could somewhat understand the explanation in the following status window.
『Sentence: 320 years』
『Dokginov is the leader of the Dokginov human trafficking ring.
He was ripped out of the entrails of young elves who received the energy of the forest, and gained an unusually large size and monstrous power. He is brutal and has no room for reflection.
He was a heinous criminal who surrounded the soldiers of the kingdom who tried to defeat him, but annihilated them by spewing out deadly poison.』
Wow. He’s a really scary guy. Maybe they brought the best hobgoblin from the dimension that guy belonged to?
Let’s not get involved.
The moment I tried to back away slowly, Chaka found me. Then, he glared fiercely and spoke like a machine gun.
“Dam Zide? Biete, kde to je? Nurobiť Rodpoveď?”
“Hey, even if you shout so excitedly, I can’t understand what you’re saying.”
“Frečo je ten Nizerný chlap Wočúvajúci?”
I don’t understand, but one thing is for sure. That guy is threatening me. I guess you’re asking who you are and where this is. With a thick swear word.
“Wočúvajúci?”
I gradually got annoyed as I kept listening to the screeching that was painful to my ears.
Just as Koreans who don’t know Russian at all instinctively feel contempt when they hear Russian swear words in front of them,
So I shouted.
“But when did this bastard see me and call me a jerk?”
That guy probably wouldn’t understand what I was saying either.
“Hey, with that constipated wild boar face, you’re so noisy that I’m going to die.”
Huuuuuuuuuu.
I pulled it up from deep inside my stomach and said it out loud.
“Speak human language, you piglet!”
The moment I shouted ‘speak human language’, a message popped up in front of me.
『The warden of the 0th floor exerts the power of communication.』
『The prisoners’ ears can now translate all languages in the universe.』
Chaka Dokginov, who had been chattering, suddenly shut his mouth. And the glare in his eyes looking at me became even more murderous.
Is this flow by any chance. . . . . . .
Fluent Korean flowed from the pig’s snout.
“You, did you just call me a piglet?”
Kwaang!
The iron bar hit by the guy’s fist shook violently.
Wait, it shook? When I hit it, it didn’t even flinch?
“You’re the first guy to say that word in front of me.”
Oh, that’s a little weird. It shouldn’t be.
You look like a pig. A black pig.
“Because the neck flew between the ‘d’ and the ‘g’.”
It seems that I have provoked someone who should not be touched.
Well, it’ll be fine for now, right? There’s a very strong iron bar between that guy and me.
Thanks to that, I was able to muster up my courage.
“So, what are you going to do in that iron bar? You pig. . . . . . You bastard.”
Of course, changing ‘pig’ to ‘bastard’ was a manifestation of my unconscious fear. Chaka’s face was distorted and turned pudding-like.
“I’ll definitely chew you up and kill you. Which do you like more, music or art?”
What is this fresh but unbalanced threat?
“Art?”
Why am I answering that again?
The guy smiled wickedly and gritted his teeth.
“Then I’ll chew your ears first and then your eyes.”
Hey, do you have to be that murderous?
“Aren’t you curious why I’m asking you this now? Because the first thing I’m going to chew on is your tongue.”
It’s dangerous. That guy is definitely dangerous.
“Just pray that this iron bar doesn’t open, you bastard!”
Oh. I’m praying hard anyway. Don’t worry.
I turned my back on the growling Chaka and stepped back toward the wall.
I am now in a situation where I have been demoted from a legendary character to a poop character in an instant. If Chaka rushes in and tries to catch me, will I be able to prevent his wish from coming true?
‘𝙄 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙝𝙤𝙬 𝙞𝙣𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙢𝙮 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙜𝙩𝙝. 𝙀𝙫𝙚𝙣 𝙞𝙛 𝙞𝙩’𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙢𝙮 𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙡 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙜𝙩𝙝.’
But I couldn’t come up with a way right away.
This place is a prison that brings prisoners from beyond dimensions. It wasn’t a game world where the players were kindly provided with prey according to their level.
But I was startled as I tried to lean against the wall.
“Oh, my god.”
One prisoner was lying in the corner of the wall, which I hadn’t paid much attention to until now.
I can feel an overwhelming force from the back of his head as he lies facing the wall. The old prison uniform, which was difficult to identify its shape because it was worn out. The copper-colored muscles exposed outside the prison uniform were intimidating.
I looked closely at the man with the Warrior’s Insight.
『Name: Lfaltarkus Sion』
『Race: Human』, 『Class: Hero』
『Title: Incomparable Gladiator, Overlord of the Eight Continents, King of Prisoners of the Skybreak』
『HP: ??,???』, 『MP: ?,???』, 『Strength: ?,???』, 『Agility: ?,???』
『Sentence: ??,??? years』
『A being that threatens the control function of the prison. Certain impossibilities, non-numeric values.』
How strong do you have to be for all of your stats to be marked with question marks?
That’s creepy.
A warrior recognizes a warrior. It was the instinct of the warrior’s body that was keenly aware of the man’s spirit.
I cautiously spoke to him.
“Mister, wake up. You?”
He was motionless, lying on his back as if he couldn’t hear my voice.
But even so, he exudes an overwhelming presence.
No horns, no tail.
The race guessed from his back is definitely human like me. Maybe I can make him my ally.
“How long have you been here? Say something, come on.”
What started out as a whisper gradually grew louder.
Then Chaka, who had been glaring at me the whole time, tilted his head.
“Hey. What are you doing now?”
“What am I doing? I’m trying to wake up the prisoner sleeping here.”
“What the hell are you talking about? There. . . . . . It’s just a blank wall.”
Suddenly I got goosebumps on my arms.
“You can’t see this guy? It’s not because you’re night blind, is it?”
“. . . . . .It’s like a dark night without a single moonlight. Do you know how difficult it is to track down elves stuck in the woods? I found them one by one and ate them. There’s definitely nothing where you’re pointing.”
Do you have a style of having a strange sense of pride?
However, I couldn’t just let go of what the guy was saying.
‘𝙃𝙚 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙙𝙤𝙚𝙨𝙣’𝙩 𝙨𝙚𝙚𝙢 𝙩𝙤 𝙨𝙚𝙚 𝙞𝙩.’
While I was looking back and forth between the prisoner Lfaltarkus and Chaka, the guy muttered, ‘Are you starting to see hallucinations out of fear?’
Hallucinations, this is so vivid? Besides, the information window popped up. It’s not like it’s a ghost or a ghost.
This prisoner that only I can see.
The instinct that told me not to go near him and the reason that I had to find out his true identity fought fiercely.
In the end, curiosity won out.
I slowly approached and touched Prisoner Lfaltarkus Sion on the shoulder.
“Excuse me?”
Then, the message that was regenerating much faster than usual went crazy.
『Warning! Warning! You are too close to the remains of the fallen heavenly emperor Lfaltarkus.』
『An unpredictable magical power and endless resentment are detected from the front. Never come into contact with this relic.』
Never come into contact?
Hey, you should tell me that before I touch it. What’s the use of warning me not to touch it after I’ve touched it!
Lfaltarkus’ figure floated like a mirage in the desert and approached me.
I feel like a worm in front of a mountain.
The soul of a being who has devoted his whole life to the path of martial arts was pressing down on me.
Soon, a voice is heard.
It was a voice that only one who had walked the path of the overlord all his life could make.
『Prisoner who can see my remains.
I don’t know your face or your name. And I can’t guess what era you’re in right now. However, it is clear that you can hear my last words because you have the same desire in your heart as I do.』
The same desire?
Could this guy have walked the path I was going to take?
That was a long, long time ago.
『Climbing to the top of this gloomy prison and smashing the arrogance of the wardens. To become the first escapee. That must be your desire.
I tried to conquer that path before you, but I had to be frustrated on the verge of success. I was the first person in this prison to set foot on the highest floor. However, a soul that fell and shattered from the top cannot even be matched with fragments. So I left it here before my remaining life force runs out on the floor.
I know your desire, Lfaltarkus Sion, in the name of the warrior among heroes, the sky beyond the sky, will protect you.』
Someone’s strong will, which had been accumulated over an eternity, began to wrap around my whole body.
