Stuck in The Tower

Episode 744: Inn 4th Floor

There is something I realized through my short social life and time at the tower.

It’s best not to go around crazy people.

Because even if I stay still, sparks sometimes fly.

In that sense, I thought Kellen might also be in that category.

‘It’s more dangerous if it’s a crazy guy on the 99th floor. ‘Okay then.’

I left the square without hesitation.

Since I’m completely hidden, it’s impossible to find me using sense and sharp eyesight.

I don’t know if you have top level navigation skills.

[Kellen]

– NPC on the 99th floor.

-I am part of the processing team!

– Swipe the dual swords!

-They are called double ghosts because they resemble evil spirits.

Judging from the information I saw through the authority and the fact that he was part of the processing team, he didn’t seem to have much ability in the search department.

There was nothing strange about it since the processing unit itself specialized in killing enemies.

“Where has this bastard gone! catch! “Catch it quickly!”

“Ahhhh! “As soon as this crazy guy comes to town, he’ll go crazy!”

“Stop harassing me, Captain!”

As soon as I disappear from sight, they start making a fuss, waving the expedition leader.

It may have happened once or twice, but the members of the exploration team looked fed up.

The villagers seem to know that there is nothing good about messing around in this atmosphere, so they secretly move to another place.

A few reporters who still haven’t let go of their regrets are taking pictures while maintaining a safe distance.

-Sasa sasa.

Either way, I moved deeper into the village.

I was curious about the exploration team and the processing team.

Because they were a group active on the 99th floor.

He probably knows things I don’t know, and he probably knows about the King of Worshipers.

but.

‘It doesn’t have to be those guys.’

The capital of a country without a king, as people say.

Ophelia was there and you can get information.

I had to go there to meet other people, so there was no need to get involved in something pointless.

Still, I have to sleep here for one day.

At night, more strange things appeared.

‘You never know. I wonder if intermediate level or above will appear.’

Perhaps because I met the first intermediate monster I met at night, I became more cautious.

There is no need to be impatient.

I set out to find an inn without any trace.

“I guess that’s enough there, right?”

“Yes.”

Perhaps because it was a planned village, it was not difficult to find an inn.

A four-story building.

-A rattle.

I broke my hiding and went inside.

A simple but cozy space.

There were a lot of people eating on the first floor, but it wasn’t noisy.

Just enjoy drinking and food in moderation and chatting about this expedition and strange things.

I headed to the counter, expecting that there wouldn’t be any pointless arguments.

“I just want to stay for one day. “We also eat together.”

“There are 4000 point ones and 8000 point ones. “Which way will you do it?”

It was quite expensive, but it didn’t matter.

There were a lot of points, but once you go outside, you can’t even use the store window.

‘is not it? ‘Maybe it’s possible since I have merchant qualifications?’

How do you know since none of the people who went out were qualified to be merchants?

I’ll have to ask Lilka or Nyangpun later.

Check this out slowly.

“What difference does it make?”

“The 8,000-dollar bill allows you to take a bath and protects you if something strange occurs.”

There was a reason it was expensive.

It’s beneficial if you can sleep comfortably with insurance.

“Let’s do that. Send dinner to your room. “For two people.”

“haha! I’ll pay special attention, so don’t worry. “Please go to the 4th floor.”

I handed over my points and received a key.

“Whew. “I guess I’ll live a little longer.”

As soon as I entered the room, I took a bath.

I used the shower skill on a regular basis, but it was different from getting into really hot water.

I felt like this was what healing was like, but my head kept spinning.

Clues obtained from the innkeeper’s words.

“Just because it’s a village doesn’t mean it’s safe.”

I see that it protects against strange entities.

In some ways, it may be more dangerous.

Not all monsters are like that, but some of them look just like humans.

It’s hard to notice if you’re walking around mixed in with the villagers.

‘It’s difficult to confirm them even with authority until the information is contaminated.’

Seeing that the village was maintained despite that situation, it seemed like there was a solution.

Than.

“When is dinner coming?”

Even though I’m lying in bed after taking a bath, I can’t eat anything.

The timing when the sun slowly sets.

What kind of amazing thing are you trying to create?

I was just thinking about going down and eating.

-Ding dong.

The doorbell rang.

Doorbell?

Was there something like that here?

I don’t know. It’s my first time at this inn.

After staying still for a while, I hear a knock.

A golden and refreshing scent that can be felt at the same time.

When I carefully open the door, I see a middle-aged man in neat clothes holding a tray.

There were drinks on top along with the food.

“The person next to me is sending it.”

The waiter, with all his hair covered in white hair, bends down and points to the side.

In a corner of the hallway, a mysterious woman smiled at me while holding a wine glass.

The sight of her with her legs crossed while wearing a red dress was alluring.

‘It’s a weird thing.’

I wasn’t fascinated by this.

Doesn’t it make sense in common sense?

What kind of crazy person sets up a table in the hallway and eats?

It was also strange that there was a waiter on the first floor that I had never seen before.

“Oh, that person.”

“That’s right. “If you don’t mind, how about joining us?”

I already had food ordered.

So, hiding my true feelings, I took the tray the waiter was holding and headed towards the woman.

I put the food on the table where she was with a smile in my eyes.

“nice to meet you. “My name is Rebecca.”

“Nice to meet you too. My name is.”

hi? Say hello.

“It’s called a stone fist.”

-Quaang!

I suddenly punched him straight in the face.

A fist that suddenly explodes the muscles of the entire body.

It’s not like I used any other skills, so it’s unpredictable.

Just taking the initiative by making the first move is enough to benefit you.

If you use up a lot of fire bombs, the inn may collapse.

but.

-Cow wow.

“oh. “What kind of etiquette is this?”

“Are you blocking this?”

The woman caught the punch just before it hit her chin.

Even the sitting position is still the same.

Did you apply a little less force?

I thought about risking the building collapsing and trying again, but the waiter was faster than me.

“So customer! “Why are you doing this!”

“Uh huh. Let go. “Before I hit you first.”

“Hey! “I’m weak, don’t hit me!”

Also, listen well.

He quickly releases his grip and clings to the wall.

“Why are you treating your employees so poorly?”

“What kind of monster is this? “Is it a joint or something?”

Since there are so many different concepts, such a concept could exist.

The woman’s eyebrows come together.

“Monster?”

“done. “You should just clean it up and not do it.”

It’s almost time to sleep, but I don’t want to fuss.

I should finish it quickly and go to sleep.

by the way.

‘The service is terrible.’

They say that if a strange thing appears, help will come.

It’s actually coming.

-Tadadadadak!

“What are you doing now!”

He was an inn owner.

“What is it? “I’m in the process of sorting out this strange thing.”

At those words, the innkeeper stiffens and looks around.

A bit of silence.

“I don’t have any?”

“hmm?”

So what is this guy?

I looked at the woman with a subtle gaze.

“Puhup! Did I look like a monster?”

“No, you. Didn’t I say it earlier? “They say they will protect you if a strange entity appears.”

A woman covers her mouth with her hand and smiles, and the inn owner looks at her, wondering what he is doing.

So, considering the situation.

“aha.”

I snapped my fingers.

“sorry!”

I think there was a misunderstanding.

When you make a mistake, you have to apologize right away.

Honestly, it was unfair.

‘What kind of inn guard is there like this?’

Why is dinner served by a waiter I’ve never heard of?

If it’s going to be like this, please explain in advance.

“I’m OK. “Please come down.”

Fortunately, the woman was cool.

I made a gesture and the innkeeper and waiter came down.

“Aren’t you eating?”

“I have to do it. Hmm. Would you like a drink? “I have something good.”

I shamelessly sat down as if nothing had happened.

I had at least some conscience left, so I took out a coke from subspace and handed it to him.

“So you were a climber?”

“Well, as you can see. “I was sorry about earlier.”

“no. That could happen if you don’t know the situation here.”

Jinglang.

Rebecca tilted her wine glass and pointed upward with a grin.

A neat but not flashy inn.

There is a chandelier that does not match the place.

Now that I think about it, there is a carpet in the hallway and the tables and chairs are quite luxurious.

“It’s a kind of defense system. Did you say joint stone earlier? that’s right. Have you ever heard of ‘the gentleman at the next table’? “It is a mid-level monster, sometimes called ‘the lady at the next table.’”

“I guess I know what it is.”

Isn’t there something like that?

It’s something like joining a table and saying it was sent from the table next to you.

There seems to be a strange entity with such a concept.

“If the situation and conditions are created, there is nothing that cannot be done. That’s why I took the lead in advance. “Because then I can’t come out.”

Since they live with strange creatures, they seem to have developed preventive measures as well.

surely.

If you do what the monsters are going to do in advance, they won’t be able to appear.

“So, dinner was also delivered through the waiter. “They said they sent it.”

“Is that real?”

“yes?”

Rebecca points to her drink glass.

“I sent you the drinks.”

Rebecca laughed and rested her chin, wondering what was so funny.

“I’m a little curious.”

“Isn’t it your first time seeing me today? “I never saw you when I entered the inn.”

“Yes. So I wanted to see your face. “I was wondering who that double-eared Kellen was looking for.”

“Puhup! Hehe! Keck! “Is that guy looking for me?”

I spat out my drink at the unexpected name.

I thought I escaped safely, but are they still looking for me?

“He’s a bit of an obsessive friend.”

“It seems like you two know each other?”

“ah.”

Rebecca, who was touching her lips with her finger, nods.

“I was once a partner in the processing unit. not now but.”

Not now.

What happened?

Maybe he retired due to injury.

So, it’s like this at the inn.

Everyone had their own story, and there was no need to ask about it unless they told it first.

“I do headhunting now. “The field agents are busy fighting, and the exploration team and processing team are always crowded.”

“is it so. “Are you sure your injury will heal?”

wait for a sec.

Speaking of headhunting.

-Cudangtangtang!

“Whew. I finally found it. Your hiding skills are quite good. “It’s only for a moment, but you can also avoid Myler’s pursuit.”

“Rebecca is having a hard time too.”

“What about the hardships? There are more milers. “I’m with Kellan.”

The people we saw in the square are coming up the stairs.

I looked at Rebecca with eyes full of betrayal.

“Is it okay if we sit together more?”

I just laughed.

Would it be okay if I ran away again now?

no. Why should I run away?

“…life.”

Why is it only popular with strange people?

I was depressed, but was there anything I could do?

“okay. Ha, let’s talk.”

I think we need to talk at least once.

Of course, there is something that needs to be done before that.

A straight hallway.

There was a picture frame hanging at the end.

“Take care of that first.”

When Kellen and the members of the exploration team arrive, the frame changes to a window.

The gloomy eyes seen through the window.

If you put your face too close, your breath appears and disappears repeatedly.

For reference, this is it.

It’s on the 4th floor.
