Chapter 225.2

Lee Jin asks me what I’ve been doing recently .

I roughly answer and turn to Lee Joon Suk .

“How do you know each other?”

Although I want to ask why Lee Jin is here, I have to be a little more tactful .

Lee Joon Suk tells me that he met Lee Jin while patrolling the streets and became friends .

I began to see how this situation was drawn after listening to him .

The spot that Lee Joon Suk is standing on makes me uncomfortable .

He ambiguously stands in the range of my attack .

I don’t know if this guy knows that his life is at the mercy of my sword .

Of course not .

Anyways, that’s how I interpreted it from my point of view, but objectively he actually quietly squeezed between me and Lee Jin . .

It’s clear what this position means .

After a few pleasantries, I turn to the last person .

A Western looking man offers to shake hands with me .

“I’m John Overton . ”

The man introduces himself as an American server challenger .

I notice that neither Lee Joon Suk or Lee hyung Jin knew that this man was joining us .

“I’ve gained permission from the Korean Order of Vigilance . I know it’s impolite to join you without talking to you in advance, but I wanted to join you here to witness your capabilities .

It seems more impolite to state that he wants to see my capabilities rather than to join us in silence .

Before I say something, I ponder if I should persuade him to go away or just walk away ourselves .

He shouldn’t of come here because he doesn’t believe that I’ve reached the 50th-floor of Hell Difficulty .

The system should’ve sent a message long ago authenticating my achievement . .

“I’m also a challenger of Hell Difficulty . ”

“Which floor?”

“6th floor . ”

Ah…… .

Lee Hyung Jin and I both show sympathy .

It’s a very difficult stage .

I openly accept John Overton joining us .

[The 1st round begins . ]

[Please choose the difficulty of the Instance dungeon . ]

The list of dungeons are shown on the information windows .

A dungeon’s difficulty is marked by the number of stars .

No accurate value is displayed, so it is impossible to know how difficult each star represents .

“Even rankers of hard difficulty are hard pressed to pass 4 stars . ”

Lee Joon Suk seems to have cleared a dungeon before .

“Yes . In addition, My best performance reached a 5 . 5 stars dungeon . ”

It feels a little awkward to look at the proud Lee Joon Suk .

There are 10 star dungeons on the information window .

He only succeeded in clearing half of the stage .

I’m disappointed with his satisfaction at attaining a meager result with no intentions of going further .

He should attempt higher difficulty levels since he still has room for improvement .

And finally I have a chance to tackle this stage with Lee Hyung Jin .

So why bring along Lee Jin?

There is no need to evaluate Lee Jin’s strength .

She can’t be counted as a combat strength at all .

I don’t understand Lee Joon Suk’s intention to bring her, but it’s a pity .

I ask the experienced Lee Joon Suk to choose a dungeon with a moderate difficulty .

There is no need to challenge the highest difficulty immediately .

I also have to monitor Lee Joon Suk’s and Lee Hyung Jin’s fights .

Lee Joon Suk chooses a dungeon with a difficulty of 3 . 5 stars .

[Please wait patiently for other teams to make their choice . ]

A 10 minute wait time is displayed above .

The system provides much more time for consideration than I thought .

Since there’s nothing to do, we begin to talk to pass time .

John Overton and I naturally talk about Hell Difficulty .

“Yes . Fortunately, there is a person who is close to my floor . He is on the 11th floor . ”

In addition to John Overton challenging 6th floor, there is also a challenger on the 11th floor in the American server .

“He’s been bottlenecked on the 11th floor for a long time . It’s a stage where you have to find something . ”

“Ah, knocking down the wall behind Ji Jeo Wang’s throne will reveal a secret space . Please tell your friend next time . ”

Lee hyung Jin recently passed the 11th floor so he reveals the answer .

I recall that fact after listening to him .

We soon get close to John Overtonn .

He became a precious friend who we can share and resonate stories about Hell Difficulty with .

“What is the most challenging obstacle you’ve encountered in Hell Difficulty?”

John Overton asks .

“There’s a lot, but I think the most challenging obstacle for me is the 1st floor boss room . ”

“Yes . Although I have heard about it in advance, it was still speechless when I faced it . Since I didn’t have enough courage to resist Hell Difficulty so I tried to escape through the door, but it wouldn’t open . . ”

“Yes . Ha ha ha ha . I knocked on the door, but didn’t even budge . ”

Anyone who has seen the lava pond in the 1st floor boss room will resonate with this .

Standing on a stone bridge just over shimmering lava is a completely different experience from just reading about it in a message . .

“The 4th floor boss room dropped me on a mountain without saying anything . I didn’t know which way the Goblin King was so I accidentally went in the opposite direction when descending the mountain . I wandered the hillside for 4 days until I located a fortress that lead me to the other goblins . ”

Lee hyung Jin and I both laugh at John Overton’s confession and comfort him .

I recall my perturbed I was since I was suddenly sent to an open mountain from a confined space .

“But I was very happy then . I was on the verge of mental collapse at that time . I was able to progress alone to 3rd floor, but I was suddenly asked to kill goblins on the 4th floor . I felt better after being able to see the moon and sunrise outside . ”

“Yes, it did . ”

I nod and expressed sympathy with them .

Despite the fact that I was focused on killing goblins at that time, I remembered the admiring the wonderful night sky .

“Are there absurd or quirky things on the other stages?”

“A lot . Tell your friend on the 11th floor to buy a subspace bag filled with food and toilet paper before entering the 12th floor . The Inventory cannot be opened in the 12th floor . ”

“Inventory?”

“Yes . I was prepared and suffered less because of a Hyung’s warning . However, there are way too many oversized bugs . ”

“I had a different problem . I went in naked of any preparations . I’ve had a lot of trouble trying to take a shit…”

Once the conversation ball started rolling, all the things I kept in my heart began pouring out .

It was fun to complain to each other about the disgusting designs of Hell Difficulty .

It’s like drinking with friends and complaining about the hardships of military service .

Lee Joon Suk and Lee Jin are a little distance from each other, but we are too immersed in the conversation to pay them any heed .
