“You’d better have an adequate answer . ”

Ahbooboo’s feelings are conveyed to me through my hands as I hold him .

The more Ahbooboo shakes, the more vivid and rich his feeling becomes .

[Warrior, that… I… ]

He seems to want to say something, but he stops as if he hasn’t sorted out his thoughts .

He stutters a few words, but then becomes silent again .

I’m willing to wait .

I’m not in a hurry, so I hope Ahbooboo can give the answer his full consideration .

Ahbooboo doesn’t answer me until a low snore comes from Lee Hyung Jin, who is still unconscious .

His answer is very simple .

[I’m sorry, warrior . ]

An apology .

That answer has many meanings .

I am satisfied because he doesn’t deny what he’s done .

I’ve spent a few months observing Ahbooboo before asking this question .

In order to ensure that my suspicions were correct, I revealed certain information about myself to sound him out .

It wasn’t just a suspicion, It’s confirmed that Ahbooboo was spying on my intelligence and thoughts .

Like Ahbooboo, I keep silent for a long time before I reveal my answer .

Ahbooboo must be burning up inside while waiting for it, but I wanted to give the answer only after a lot of deliberation .

But maybe I’ve already made this decision .

“You know, I understand your situation, but tone it down . ”

The words after my deliberation are dry .

I wanted to say something cool and powerful, but when people try to do something they don’t usually do, their brain refuses to function .

[Yeah… Thank you . ]

I nod after I listen to Ahbooboo .

I have solved another problem .

The issues concerning Ahbooboo have ended .

I’ve also considered other outcomes . For example, Ahbooboo may give me unsatisfactory answers, but that doesn’t mean that he’ll justify his behavior or fight to prove his innocence .

I got to know him through our time together since meeting on the 26th floor .

 Ahbooboo knows me as well .

So I don’t believe that he would do those things .

I’m glad and relieved .

His approach was obviously wrong, but considering the relationship between the Gods and Ahbooboo, I can understand his intent to improve his understanding of me .

I’m being watched by the gods for 24 hours a day .

Ahbooboo’s behavior doesn’t make me uncomfortable .

Most of all, I don’t think Ahbooboo was just spying on me during the time I spent with him .

That’s why I did this .

I had planned to turn a blind eye to this matter to let it turn over as soon as possible, but I still needed to tell him .

I wanted to warn him in advance .

Before he crosses the line .

I wanted to tell him that this was as far as I can allow .

The link that transmitted Ahbooboo’s feeling disappears .

I have a new hypothesis regarding this link .

Perhaps Ahbooboo didn’t clear the link between us, not because he was too agitated, but because he wanted to convey his feelings to me .

He may’ve had difficulties articulating his words .

I’ll need a better grasp on this link .

The entire space becomes quiet after Ahbooboo becomes silent .

I can only hear my breathing and the low snoring of Lee Hyung Jin, who is still unconscious .

Seregia remains silent as usual .

I wake up Lee Hyung Jin .

Lee Hyung Jin reflexively opens his eyes as soon as my hand touches his body .

“Get up, man . How long do you want to sleep?”

Lee Hyung Jin stands up and looks around without saying a word .

He probably dozes a lot while clearing stages, so he is very alert when he wakes up .

I can’t help but think of the timid herbivores because he has the habit of closing his lips and holding his breath to confirm his surroundings .

Lee Hyung Jin sits next to me and scratches his head .

“That… Have the other two teams not arrived yet?”

I nod .

I thought the remaining team would be John Overton and the frog .

But this is taking too long .

Even if he’s teamed with the frog, John Overton shouldn’t have this much trouble dealing with the instance dungeon .

If so, he wouldn’t be able to pass the 6th floor of Hell Difficulty, let alone live to the present .

So it seems that Lee Joon Suk and Lee Jin are the ones who haven’t retrieved their token yet .

I decide not to think about what’s keeping them from proceeding .

It’s rude .

“How did it feel to face death?”

Lee Hyung Jin laughs maniacally after hearing my question .

“I don’t know what to think about it . What’s the matter with that sword? It drives me crazy . ”

I chuckle at Lee Hyung Jin when he asks me if it’s better to throw away the sword .  

Ahbooboo would usually pop out a comment or two, but he is unusually quiet now .

“I don’t know . The moment I rushed in felt incredible . How should I describe it? Joy? It might be closer to pleasure . Why is that… I felt like I was going all-in on a gambling party . I had a similar feeling when I was climbing the floors, but this is the first time it felt so intense . ”

“Do you gamble?”

“No, I’m just saying . ”

That pleasure is closer to suicide jumping off a roof .

This is caused by hormones secreted by the brain in the face of death .

 I advise him as someone who has experienced it countless times .

“Don’t get addicted to that feeling . ”

I warn him in advance even though I don’t think Lee Hyung Jin would fall into addiction .

Lee Hyung Jin replies that it would never happen .

“Hyung, I’m not sure of myself . Can I really do it?”

Just like the last tournament or during the Day of Great Harmony*, I’m asked this question every time we meet .

*Used to be translated as Grand Conference before, but Day of Great Harmony (the first translator’s version) is more closer to its original meaning . I’ll keep it in following chapters . – Jiujiuba

“You can . ”

“But I don’t have the confidence to be like you . ”

That’s for sure .

“It’d be too greedy to aim for my level . There are too many differences in our efforts . ”

“Is that so…”

“Hyung Jin, you’ve come a long way . Most of your upcoming floors follow a set theme so it’s relatively easy to clear them with information alone . It’ll be different from the 6th and 11th floors .

As long as there is enough information, some stages can be cleared in a day .

So I believe Lee Hyung Jin can make it .

“The most important thing is that you’re on the 13th floor . Purposely fail the floor until you’re able to reach the room where Armout is . You’ll experience countless failures, but also countless paths to grow . The 13th floor monks are extremely powerful relative to the floors nearby and are very welcoming . They’ll advise you whenever possible . If you can achieve a significant growth on the 13th floor, the future floors will become less threatening . Spend a year or two on the 13th floor . You’ll be unstoppable in the next few floors as a result . ”

Note : Armout is the name of the Master Monk who resides in room 33 at the end of the 13th floor trial . – Godlycash

Lee Hyung Jin is silent to my advice .
