I Returned as an FFF-Class Witch Doctor

Episode 23

“What is this…”

“Isn’t it dangerous?”

The adventurers were shaken as a loud voice rang through the iron bars on the other side.

It was a complex sound.

The sound of sharp weapons and the roar of monsters.

The desperate voice of the advance team who went in to take the qualification test.

– Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

– Kill!! Kill me oh oh oh!!!

And Damian clicked his tongue as he watched Maria continue talking peacefully without the slightest agitation along with the screams of the adventurers resounding from the other side of the iron bars.

“You have nothing to be afraid of! It’s just illusion magic?!”

Although I forgot about it for a while because I was soaked in emotion, it was because it was never good news to operate Summon Gate in the qualification test that varies widely from branch to branch.

“Okay~ Those waiting for the next 401 to 500~ Please prepare for the exam!”

“what?!”

“Ber said it was over already?”

At Maria’s words, the adventurers in the waiting area were taken aback.

It was a bright smile that was more than a place where all sorts of screams were rampant.

The adventurers who went in first had only been in for less than 10 minutes, and dozens of arched doors with screams were no small number.

Even so, no one standing here expected that they would let the next one in so quickly.

“Let’s relax for the first time in a while.”

Crunchy! Dduduk!

Except for Damian, a former Challenger Tier of the Adventurer’s Guild and a deceased person in his 10th year of life.

“What the hell have you guys done!!”

“The tests are all fake?!”

“Aren’t you trying to kill us all?!”

While Damian warmed up, some adventurers shouted at Maria.

It was a reasonable suspicion to say it was out of the blue.

There is no news of anyone who has entered, and all that echoes is a terrible sound.

Besides, there was a corner of a psychopath somewhere in Maria who didn’t care about such things at all.

However, to harm her, the mercenaries lined up on either side were spraying unusual energy.

It was a problem, however, that Maria, the person involved, was also exuding an intangible energy that was difficult to approach.

“Don’t get me wrong, everyone! The qualification test here at Summon Gate is structured so that if you defeat the monsters, you enter the next stage! Your time is precious!”

“….”

Is that really telling me to believe that?

It was a very persuasive comment.

“If you don’t like this guild’s testing method or are concerned about it, please leave the testing room right now~! Of course, the adventurer license you want will be skipped!”

“Keugh…”

Maria pointed her finger at the closed entrance, and the people in the waiting area drooled.

It was because I felt humiliated even if I didn’t have to respond.

These are also adventurers of the other world like Damian, who prove their usefulness and acquire an adventurer’s license.

Because they are frightened by the monsters’ vision, they voluntarily choose to drop out without showing their combat power?

No matter how much this situation was accepted as nonsensical, there were no people who wanted to be treated as unqualified by Maria, the NPC in the game.

“Yeah, what’s wrong?!”

“Rather, this may also be a test. It’s just that you create a sense of fear in advance and evaluate it.”

“It’s a game after all. just die You can come back in 60 hours!”

And at Maria’s words, public opinion in the arena reversed as if it were contagious, and the protests of the adventurers disappeared without a trace…

“Then, the next line-up~! Let the test begin!”

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

The iron bars behind the platform, which seemed to never open, roared up again with a sharp scream, and Maria pointed her finger at the arched door and shouted in a lively voice.

“Then let’s go!”

The voice sounded like announcing the start of a rollercoaster.

* * *

– Welcome to Summon Gate.

– The Adventurer Qualification Test has a total of 10 stages, and you have to defeat the monsters that appear in each test site.

– When all the monsters are defeated, the door to the next test site will open, and you can raise your hand to give up midway.

– Individual participants, not team participants, will automatically be eliminated if they do not defeat the monster.

– 9 minutes 59 seconds 9 minutes 58 seconds until the start of the next test…

– Please prepare for the test entrance exam.

“Hmm.”

Damian looked around at the guidance voice that echoed through the exam hall.

There were ten users in total.

Adventurers who were assigned to one of the many arched doors and thus had to take the test in the same room as him.

Among them, there were adventurers who seemed to have formed a team, and there seemed to be adventurers who participated individually like himself.

However, one thing they had in common was that no one in this test center had a spherical or one-sided relationship, and Damian narrowed his eyes at the fact that he could no longer hear the guidance voice from the test center.

‘Are these bastards not telling me this on purpose…?’

According to Damien’s memories of having already experienced it once in his previous life, the qualification test for Summon Gate was in addition to catching the monsters that appeared at each stage.

It was because it was a kind of battle royal where no common sense was used in the process.

“What is this?”

“Are you breaking as a group?”

“I guess so.”

When the guidance voice stopped, people started talking to each other.

Most of the participants were of the same level.

One team of 4 people, one male and female couple.

And through the words of the participants, Damian could easily guess that the four adventurers, including himself, were individual participants.

“Brother… I’m a bit scared.”

“huh? Are you afraid of my baby?”

“yes. It’s weird here. Let’s get out quickly.”

“Okay, my baby. trust me brother I’ll get you out soon.”

Starting with the conversation between a man named < Eomju Husband > and a woman named < Eomjueyonv > who are now talking, the appearance of groups of three or five gathered together was a video without even watching.

“They say it’s a relationship even if you just brush your collar, but let’s do well together on the same team. Apparently, if you clear all the way to the end, you can start with silver instead of iron.”

“…Really?”

“Sure~. I asked before coming here.”

Damian warmed up and looked around while the crowd was buzzing. It was a user with the nickname < Gentle Manner Man >.

A man wearing a brown-dyed 5:5 part perm and < Standard Half Plate Set >.

And Damian raised one eyebrow while looking at the sword slung over his shoulder while making a full statement under the leadership of a man with gentle manners.

‘Because it’s a Superior Falchion… I must have spent all my money.’

He would also be like that because the sword of the gentle mannered man boasted the highest attack power at the same level as the < +5 Superior Falchan >, which was in the limelight for its short blade and light weight.

“Uh… hello. We’ve been together since the open beta. This fellow here is Roagood, an archer. And here…”

“Hello~.”

As the gentleman introduced himself, the party members greeted each other.

It was a classy party.

< Roagood >, an archer with a short bow.

Priest < Entering with Mouth Open >.

< Minky Yo > must be Meiji.

The party of 4 Damian watched at first belonged to a man with gentle manners, and he succeeded in talking to most of the users who entered the exam hall.

A friendly atmosphere was also maintained with the individual participants, < Lua Pyoong Pyoong > and < Chicken Saju Sayong > users.

It took about 5 minutes before the start of the test, but they seemed to show a friendly feeling naturally, as if they had good affinity with the original body.

“Since it happened like this, let’s break it all together!”

“I like Joe!”

“Because Gentle-nim is here, I think something is reassuring!”

And even though they had heard in advance that the evaluation method of Summon Gate was individual evaluation, they began to clenched their fists according to the words of the gentle man.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the weapon of a man with gentle manners was not < +5 Superior Falchan >, but his tongue, if only his speech skills were enough to rally people.

“Oh! Come to think of it, there are people I haven’t said hello to yet!”

“Oh is that so?”

When one of the party members spoke, the gentleman turned his head.

Except for Damian, it was a user who hadn’t been able to say hello before.

A user who wears voluptuous tights that reveal the body as it is and wears armor made of light armor on top, which looks like a classic setting focused on mobility.

“Uh… maybe…”

Eventually, the gentleman scratched the back of his head as if embarrassed and said the first words with enthusiasm, and the user with black hair ponytail in a black mask began to insinuate rhymes.

“They’re doing fuckers.”

“…?”

Contrary to the fact that the silhouette alone reminds me of being beautiful, it was a ferocious remark.

“hey? What are you saying right now…”

“Don’t be shy and go away. Because I have no intention of partying with X gods like you.”

“yes?”

When a female user in a black mask shot at him, the man with gentle manners was speechless as if he had eaten honey.

It was such an aggressive tone that the tongue, which had never forgotten its fluency even for a moment, hardened itself.

You haven’t said anything yet, but you’re going to swear at me without saying anything?

No matter how good-looking he was, it was not something that even a gentleman with good manners could easily overlook.

“Aren’t you saying too harshly?”

“what. A bastard who looks like a parasitic brother.”

And the moment when the black-haired ponytail user looked at the ceiling of the test site, taking his eyes off him as if he didn’t care about the gentle man’s reply… – 00 minutes 00 seconds

until the next test.

– Start testing.

Charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Soon, a familiar iron voice resonated on the other side of the entrance they entered, and at the same time, an unfamiliar sound began to flow from the arched door.

“Keeek!”

“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!”

They were goblins.

* * *

“The monsters are here! Everyone, get ready!”

As the goblins appeared in a row, the man with gentle manners shouted while aiming his < +5 Superior Polechan >.

It was a voice in which there was not the slightest hint of tension.

Although he couldn’t rally everyone in the exam hall, the man with gentle manners was giving natural orders to the group.

All of a sudden, except for Damian and Ponytail, the party was raising their weapons at the goblins in perfect order.

“Let’s try it!”

“This is also a fate, let’s get a good grade together and go out!”

Although it was his first time dealing with goblins, his short stature, which seemed to be less than 1 meter tall, and his crude equipment made him look formidable.

“Ha really haha. The adventurer’s guild level is also worth knowing. No matter how much dogs and cows give licenses, this place ignores us too much…”

Chew!

That is, until a venom dart passed by his cheek.

“Kyaaak!”

“Kyaaaaaagh!”

One of the goblins fell out as Damian’s stinger hit him.

It was like being hit by a sniper rifle.

His short torso was lifted up in the air by the poisonous needle he shot, and after rolling on the floor several times, he couldn’t stand up.

Considering that he had gone round less than a minute after appearing, it was an empty exit.

“What is this…?”

As the gentleman’s eyes were stained with disbelief, a sharp shriek rang out again.

It happened at the same time that the goblin fell to the ground and was oxidized by a single ray of light.

A man with gentle manners blankly turned his head to the back, and at the same time, a man passed by like lightning.

“Once, one guy.”

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

And with the haze of ominous colors disturbing his eyes, the gentle mannered man was finally able to identify who had jumped out.

It was a muscular man wearing a boar’s head.

“Keeeeeee!!”

“Kyaaak! Kyaaaaaagh!”

While the gentleman was bruised, Damian threw himself like a thunderbolt.

It was a bonus that the screams of the goblins erupted from all directions.

With the effect of < Blood Impulse >, he passed the gentleman in an instant and punched a goblin in the face.

At the same time, the image of Damian jumping into the middle of the goblin group was reminiscent of a shark piercing a group of killifish somewhere.

“Wait, wait a minute!”

bang! bang! bang! Bang! Bang!

Regardless of the man with gentle manners, a group of goblins were being devoured.

[Notice: < Goblin Illusion 1 > has been eliminated!]

[Notification: < Goblin Illusion 2 > has been eliminated!]

….

[Notification: < Goblin Illusion 10 > has been eliminated!]

While the gentleman is flustered, the system A window popped up.

It was a message saying that the goblin had been defeated.

I don’t know what happened, but it happened in the blink of an eye anyway.

And the man who ate up all the goblins shook his hands as if he had finished his warm-up and started walking towards the arched door before the gentleman and the users of the test site could react.

– End of the first phase of the test.

– Calculate test results.

– Calculating the test…

– Adventurer < Demian > got 10 points.

– Open the second stage of the test.

The test was over.
