Dungeon Reset Chapter 18

Translator: WH
The fifth observatory was nearing completion.
“What a great sight.”
Jung Da-woon was satisfied.
He made it himself, but this observatory was really the best one he ever made.
“Quality, of course, comes from the details!”
If you keep repeating whatever you do, your skills and knack for it will improve.
As time went by, his observatory was getting better and better.
Now, when a hole is dug, it was more beautiful and more solid, and when he built stairs, its height was uniform and safe.
He also paid attention to the cross-shaped bricks to ensure it looked beautiful, and while he was at it, he also built a rooftop room.
“Should I make a bed too? I don’t want to go back and forth from the hideout every night because I’m getting farther from it.”
He could make a bed quickly if he wanted to.
A large queen-sized bed was made by stacking mud bricks in the corner of the rooftop room.
On top of it, he added a mattress and bedcloth with several layers of sun-dried one-horned boar fur, and the soft cushion was quite good.
“Ohhhhh, this is it. I think I made it too well.”
Jung Da-woon proudly watched his work of art with his arms crossed.
[Someone might think you’re some kind of master architect if they saw this.]
Just in time, the Rabbit slowly appeared and started to pick on him.
“Oh, you’re here? Look at this, Rabbit. It’s a rooftop room! Keuuu, isn’t it amazing?”
[Hmph. It seems you enjoyed playing house alone. What the hell is this? Why is there a bed in the observatory?]
The Rabbit frowned at the sight of the well-decorated bed that occupied a spot in the corner of the rooftop room.
It accidentally touched the bed and it felt quite good.
The fluffy leather that was cleaned with soap and the Purification skill, the soft and fluffy…….
[……Huh?! Why am I lying down?]
When the Rabbit came to its senses, it was already lying on the bed without even realizing it.
Jung Da-woon raised his thumb with a satisfied look.
“It’s pretty good, isn’t it? Five layers of fur stacked on each other is perfect.”
[……Hmph.]
It was a warm feeling that was not easily encountered in the Dungeon.
To the point where it didn’t want to come down.
* * *
Shingggggg!
When the fifth observatory was somewhat completed, a soft light began to flow from it.
[Phew. Another achievement…….]
Disgraceful, but the Rabbit was now forced to admit his skills.
Achievement was supposed to be something that not everyone can just achieve on the get go.
Constructing a building this big alone in the middle of the Dungeon was certainly a great achievement.
It was not easy to repeat the same feat over and over again.
“They excelled in different fields, but he was actually the same kind as Ryu Seung-woo? He wasn’t the kind of person who stood out when he was mixed among the contestants…….”
As a Helper, there were times when it found special humans like Ryu Seung-woo.

Those so-called geniuses.
They were able to clear hidden missions all over the Dungeon without anyone teaching them, achieve special achievements, and become stronger quickly.
But Jung Da-woon wasn’t originally like that.
He was just an ordinary Producer class that was buried under the shadow of Ryu Seung-woo.
However, it was not until he was left out of the game that he belatedly started revealing his own presence.
Shingggggg!
But this time something was strange.
[…… Eh?]
“Huh?”
Suddenly, the fourth observatory, which was completed a few days ago, also began to shine brightly.
[What’s happening there!?]
Shinggg!
Shinnnnngggg!
In the distance, the third, the second, the first, all the observatory built by Jung Da-woon so far were shining like candy in a row.
“Feels like something’s different this time?”
As soon as Jung Da-woon tilted his head,
Flash!
A new achievement was done.
“Builder!”
Thanks to your skilful techniques, this land full of destruction has become more abundant!
The Dungeon is greatly impressed by your great creativity.
– Reward: The building will be registered as a skill.
[Stop it! You crazy Dungeon!]
The rabbit flew into a rage.
This human has achieved another bizarre achievement.
Jung Da-woon, who confirmed the details of his achievements, tilted his head.
“Oh, what does this mean? Builder? Skill Check!”
He checked the skill window first.
Purification (Low-Grade Level 7)
Dirt Lump (Level 8)
Vigor of the One-Horned Boar (Level 4)
Observatory (Level 1) NEW
– Construction time is reduced by half.
– When building the tower, you will not get exhausted easily.
– You can check the view from the observatory on the map.
A new skill was added to the skill window, called “Observatory”.
It was somehow an unusual skill.
“Reduce the construction time by half?”
It was best to first try out a skill that he just obtained.
Jung Da-woon immediately came down from the observatory and settled down.
“It’s late at night, so it’s dangerous to go far, so why don’t I build a twin building?”
He tried using the skill right next to the fifth observatory.
“Observatory!”
[The observatory is being built now.]
At that moment, Jung Da-woon’s movements began to accelerate.
“Oh? Ohhhhhhh?”
Thud thud thud thud thud thud thud!
Jung Da-woon’s hands and feet, which were stacking the mud bricks, moved twice as fast as he used to.
There was no special effect and it was not a splendid ability, but the speed of building beyond human speed itself was phenomenal.
[Hands faster than eyes!?]
The Rabbit was astonished at the absurdly stacked observatory.
It has never seen a skill like this before.
Jung Da-woon excitedly completed building the observatory.
It stated that it was double the speed, but in reality it was actually faster than that.
It was double the speed of building without the need to take a rest.
In reality, it was an amazing skill that was almost three or four times more effective.
“And I’m not even tired!”
– When building the tower, you will not get exhausted easily.
Jung Da-woon realized with his body what this one sentence meant.

* * *
Four hours later, the observatory was completed.
Two observatory stood side by side like a twin tower.
Considering that it usually took about 10 hours, it was incredibly fast.
The Rabbit looked at him along with the twin observatory in turn with a curious look on its face.
[You’re really…… easy-going huh. You got another skill that has nothing to do with fighting.]
“It’s a skill I really need right now. I was running out of time anyway.”
To gauge how far the game was progressing, he has been counting how many days have passed.
Because it was almost the 4th week.
Along with the first week, the fourth week was also one of the periods that most of the participants died.
“Because those bastards turn up during the fourth week.”
The area of Stage-1 was like an isolated remote area.
To the west and south were high-temperature deserts. It was a place where participants would dry up and die in less than an hour.
In the east, black and huge mountain ranges were encircled like folding screens. Nobody set foot in the mountain range. No, none of the people who set foot came back alive.
And the north was the site where the final boss was waiting.
“In other words, I started digging a tunnel from the north, and I got out from the east.”
And now he was on his way back to the final site, building an observatory in the eastern forest.
Anyways, among all of them, there were some really scary and horrible monsters in the great mountains in the east.
Which is the giant mice.
Not only were they big but they were also predators with strong claws, teeth, and they were ferocious.
It was a terrible disaster, with hundreds and tens of millions of such mice flocking around.
From the fourth week, they started creeping down from the eastern mountain range and they begin with the east, and then it eats away at the south, middle, and the west.
They devoured all living things.
Naturally, the fallen participants who have not yet reached the North fell prey to them, leaving no bones behind.
They head north at the end, and naturally all the participants who lived until the fourth week avoided them and tried their best to reach the site where the final boss was located.
“It’s almost the fourth week, so those bastards are coming in. I need to build a stronger building to defend from them or hide under the ground.”
Or, he could also try to topple the final boss at the final site with the participants.
It was then.
“Oh, dear.”
Just as he was thinking of them, red dots were coming from the bottom side of the mini-map.
A herd of monster rats were rushing in.
The Rabbit giggled after seeing that.
[The great cleaning has begun! Now they’re all going to die!]
Jung Da-woon’s eyes quickly scanned the mini-map.
Still, not a single participant was seen on the mini-map.
It was strange. The observatories were lined up and connected, but let alone a single participant, not even a shadow was seen, and there was only two possible reasons why it was like this.
“Either they’re all dead, or they’ve already arrived at the historical site.”
Jung Da-woon decided the next route without further consideration.
“I will have to first arrive at the final site.”
In fact, there was one way to get to the final site faster.
Making a dirt pillar under the trap that was near the final site and going above ground from there, was the method that he thought of.
But he wouldn’t be able to find out the amount of monsters swarming over it.
Besides, what would the participants passing-by think if he just started crawling up from the trap? Wont they confuse him as a monster and start attacking him?
“……It’s safer to follow the path that the participants passed, even if it takes a little more time.”
Thanks to the Observatory skill, he was able to move as fast as possible.
So Jung Da-woon was able to arrive at the final site after a while.
* * *
Kreeeuunnggg! Kwangggg!
The huge hall of the boss room tremored roughly.
The participants were on the verge of annihilation.
“Fuck. How can we even beat this!”
A man with a spear lamented.
At that time, a huge presence in front of him raised a fist as big as a human being.
“Stop that fucking thing! Pick up the shield!”
“How can we even stop this!”
The young man with the shield lamented with a stunned face.
In front of the final boss, all the skills he boasted so much were useless.
It was abnormal in the first place.
The size, the destructive power.
It was like a huge doll made of soil.
An Earth golem.
It was the name of that terrifying creature that was made of soil.
Kwaaaaang!
The final site vibrated as if an earthquake had happened.
“Ackkkk!”
The young man flung his shield and avoided to the side.
Fortunately, he was safe, but the shield was shattered.
Along with him, his faint will to fight was shattered.
“Sa-, save me…….”
The young man burst into tears.
“Sta-, stay calm……!”
The man with the spear said, but he himself was also engulfed with fear.
The same was true with the others of course.
“How can we even catch that kind of monster…….”
“S-, the skill doesn’t work.”
The boss room of Stage-1.
The final crisis before the Stage Clear, made the participants terrified.
* * *
As expected, there were traces of participants passing by the final site.
Where the battle was already over, the bodies of the monsters were scattered all around.
“You passed first, as expected. You didn’t clear the Stage already, did you?”
It was around the time Jung Da-woon’s heart became impatient.
Kwaaaaaang!
“Huh?”
Jung Da-woon turned his head to the sound of the distant tremors.
Boom! Boom!
It was a familiar sound.
It was similar to the roar heard in the distance when he was dying in the trap.
“It’s the sound of a fight going on!”
The direction of the roar was near the trap he had fallen into.
He had definitely fallen into a trap just before the final gate.
“It must be the last battle!”
Jung Da-woon began to run in a hurry.

And how he is destined to rise again.---------------------------------------Before you think wrong of my choice of race for the mc, I want to inform you that although he starts as a Goblin, he will be nothing like Rou from Re:Monster (which is one of the main inspirations for this).---------------------------------------This is my first fiction, so I would love some feedback or your opinions in general. English isn't my main language either, so if you see any mistakes regarding grammar or anything else, please inform me. I don't plan on ending this fiction anytime soon, but due to school and work I may not have time to write chapters on a frequent base. Btw later on there may be Romance included, so I will put these into the categories, but don't expect anything sexual to happen in the first few chapters.
