Today was madness

When a lady holds a grudge

Now this is streaming, haha

Tried to kill a full-moon wolf with a broken longsword

Why you can't find a 5

Han Se-ah is turning heads globally.

It may sound a bit over the top, but her gameplay is popping up on foreign Reddit, so she's genuinely attracting gamers worldwide.

Videos of experienced players taking down bosses wearing nothing but underwear have been spreading among gamers, in the East and the West.

So, Han Se-ah's videos, particularly her climb up the tower with 6 Roland, are quietly gaining traction in various gaming communities.

People are drawn to Han Se-ah, the NPCs are charming, and there's curiosity about the forest that starts from the 11th floor

Now this is streaming, haha

Man, if you pulled a 6, you should've been playing like this from the start, haha

You were dragging your feet, scared you might not be girly enough, but you've finally got your head on straight, haha

Why's this guy attacking the streamer?

Do you not know that VPN is off? someone take a screenshot

I've seen accidental logins, but this is the first time I've seen an accidental VPN shut off

I was also curious about the power of a 6.

I followed Han Se-ah's instructions as party leader to the letter.

I swung my hammer around like a grass cutter, making a path by knocking down dense forest trees.

I'd made a path not only wide enough for a few people but even a car.

By tearing through tree trunks and ripping out roots with sheer power.

This isn't an issue.

Just like the never-ending monster spawns, the ravaged forest will heal in time.

If it didn't, adventurers would've reduced the paths between forest levels to a barren wasteland.

If bunches of high-level adventurers like me picked up axes and started chopping, what could an orc hunter do to stop it?

"Keep going, Roland! Knock 'em all down!"

"Are, are we sure this is okay? I mean, others might find it disruptive..."

Han Se-ah's plan wasn't bad strategy-wise.

The simplest way to handle an orc hunter's traps was to have a tank charge through with armor and shield.

The makeshift traps, cobbled together from scraps in the tower's harsh environment, couldn't get through steel armor.

However, it's not fun to just simply push through.

People have a penchant for Michael Bay-esque blockbusters, the kind where things blow up dramatically.

Who doesn't appreciate a good explosion causing enemies to scatter in panic, so long as our hero remains unscathed?

An orc hunter, dodging tumbling rocks and tripping over fallen trees, finally takes a hit from the debris I've launched with my hammer, and ends up sprawled on the ground.

When trees start tumbling down in tens, there's only one outcome for those unfortunate enough to be caught in the chaos.

"Are the drops under the tree?"

"...I've never seen an orc hunter squashed like this, so I don't know."

As entertaining as it is, I can't maintain this Hulk-smash approach every time an Orc Hunter shows up.

There are mages who're now studying the higher floors, and if I'm not careful, my rampage could also affect other adventurers.

It could even turn into a case of negligent manslaughter.

I'd rather not cross swords with mages immersed in their arcane studies, let alone other fellow adventurers.

"For now, let's have Grace and Roland take the lead and keep exploring."

Grace and I spearhead the group, with Irene, Han Se-ah, and Kaiden bringing up the rear.

I shield Grace with my body, and Kaiden, with her swift reflexes, covers our backs.

At the end of the day, it's a brute-force strategyforging ahead through traps we can't detect.

We accept some risk, and instead of slowing our pace, we barrel through potential traps.

Viewers might be amused by our rather brutish strategy, but I'm quite content with it.

If your body's worn out, your mind feels it too.

There's no need to toil for a different approach when you can just bulldoze your way through.

"Since we're unlikely to find the passage to the 21st floor right off the bat, it might be a good idea to start looking for a place to camp when evening comes."

"Alright, we'll keep an eye out for any open spaces as we explore."

With her excitement subsided, Han Se-ah resumes the exploration.

Following her, Grace and I move on from the decimated forest trail.

Grace stays close, initiating a conversation in a hushed tone.

"...I didn't expect to miss traps. I can detect monsters with such precision, so why can't I detect such crude tree branches?"

"It's likely because your skills are honed for tracking prey. Conversely, rogues who are proficient at picking locks and disarming traps might struggle to find Horned Wolves or Moss Wolves."

Han Se-ah, failed to react in time to the trap, taking a blow to her pride.

Grace, too, seems to have taken a hit to her pride as a scout, shaken by her failure to detect such a primitive booby trap.

Their frustration stems from the simplicity of the Orc Hunter's trapa mere tree branch, bent and held in tension with a thin vine.

Ironically, Grace had located the Orc Hunter, concealed under the skin of a Moss Wolf in a pit masked by fallen leaves.

She could detect such well-camouflaged spots with her eyes shut, yet missed a conspicuously bent tree branch.

The irony is somewhat amusing.

Even though I can smash rocks with fists enhanced by mana, it's normal that I can't weave a magic missile with that same potent mana.

If a could use rogue skills, why would they even have separate professions?

"That's why adventurers on the 20th floor favor rogues over scouts. Higher up, there are no traps to contend with, and that's when scouts rise to prominence."

"What's at the higher floors?"

"After the forest comes cave terrain. Here, it's not about who laid traps, but the terrain itself is convoluted and disorienting. At this point, it matters less whether you're a rogue or a scout, and more about your ability to remember the path."

On the 10th floor, during the Full Moon Wolf expedition, scouts have the edge.

On the 20th floor, in pursuit of the Orc Hunter, rogues are up one over them.

From the 30th floor onward, it's less about class and more about skill level.

I began discussing the 21st floor to cheer up Grace and subtly give information to the viewers.

Following the plains is a forest.

After the forest comes the caves.

Curiosity piqued about the 21st floor we're soon to explore, the lively chatter from the group naturally dies down.

They're keen to hear about the caves.

"A cave, there... huh?"

"What is it?"

"...This is odd."

Mid-conversation, Grace's expression suddenly alters.

Much like when she was tracing the tracks of Horned Rabbits and Foxes, she squats near a tree stump in the forest and begins to fiddle with her dagger that's around her waist.

Seeing her like this, the rest of the group rushes forward, maintaining vigilance over their surroundings.

"Is it an Orc Hunter's trap?"

"No, not a trap... I've come across a trace I've never seen before."

As she scrapes off the soil clinging to a large tree's root with her dagger, a peculiar mark is revealed.

It looks as though someone had crudely hacked away the bark and part of the root.

Surely, an Orc Hunter's dagger wouldn't be sharp enough to sever such a thick root?

"Something, not an Orc Hunter, is in the forest. Could be another adventurer collecting something for a task."

It might not be an Orc Hunter, but possibly the handiwork of another adventurer.

That's Grace's assessment, though Han Se-ah seems to hold a slightly different opinion.

The 20th floor quest has begun.
