Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[Can I do this?]

“It can’t be like this… .”

It’s been three days since I entered the dungeon.

I was wondering if something was wrong.

Because….

“Team leader. “There are monsters on the front lines!”

I came out of the vehicle after the camera crew reported.

Cheon Yi-nam brought a drone controller with a display and showed it to me.

“The drone sent for reconnaissance was broken. The camera is still working…”

The shape of the monster was visible on the display screen attached to the controller.

A rat with two bright red eyes was gnawing at the camera with its teeth.

Red-eyed poisonous rat.

Although their fighting power was not that great, they had sharp teeth and claws and powerful paralyzing poison. It’s as big as a cat, so it’s quite disgusting.

The weak point is the tail.

When the red-eyed poisonous rats have their tails cut off, they become disoriented and spin around in place as if they were drunk.

At that time, the screen flickered, then turned off and turned black.

“It looks like the camera is broken.”

I handed the controller back to Cheon Yi-nam and walked towards my innocent friends who were following me from behind.

Since there was no more space to sit in the car, our innocent friends were following us on foot.

Vehicles moved slowly in the dungeon, so there was no problem with following them on foot.

To my surprise, I had time left and said,

“Saram, who comes in first place! “I’ll give you a snack!”

I could even play ball toss with a bored little boy.

“Throw it!”

Whick!

When the little boy threw the ball, innocent friends rushed to fetch the ball.

After a while, surprisingly, it was the fat team leader who came back with the ball in first place.

That guy is pretty fast.

“good job! Cha-ka-cha-cha-kae!”

The little boy gave the fat team leader a cookie and patted the fat team leader’s head as he ate it.

“Oh my. “It’s not even a dog…”

A camera was filming the whole thing.

Later, when those friends come back to their senses, I’m thinking of sending them home a taster video one by one.

Well, I’ll decide that later after seeing what they do.

“hey! friends!”

slap!

The heads of my innocent friends turned towards me at the same time.

I pointed with my finger in the direction where the monster appeared.

“It’s time to pay for food.”

Nod.

The innocent friends nodded and stepped forward.

After a while, a group of more than a dozen red-eyed poisonous rats appeared in front of us.

I put the whistle in my mouth.

Beep-!

At the sound of the whistle, the innocent friends ran out all at once.

The group of red-eyed poison rats was quickly cleared away.

It wasn’t a very strong monster to begin with, and there were 13 superhumans here.

I am little Wangguho.

Five superhumans from the Red Shark Guild.

The five superhumans of the Warriors Guild.

I haven’t yet seen where my black hound friends have gone, but even with this power, I’m still full.

I walked leisurely among my hard-fighting friends and cut off the tails of the red poisonous rats I occasionally saw, one by one.

There was quickly nothing left to do, so I returned to the car alone and lay down with my back against the seat.

And then the worries started again.

“It’s strange as expected… strange.”

Cheon Seol-ah asked cautiously, perhaps because my expression seemed serious.

“What are you worried about? “You don’t look good this morning…”

“Because it’s too easy.”

“yes?”

I told my concerns in detail to Cheon Seol-ah, who did not understand.

“I thought it would be a little more difficult. There were a lot of monsters, there were casualties, and I pledged to avenge my comrades who had wrongfully turned a blind eye to the bloody battle…”

Cheon Seol-ah laughed as if it was absurd.

“manager. What kind of fantasy novel do you write? Even in novels, it’s not written like that these days.”

“Well, I didn’t want to do anything like that, so I prepared for this and that…”

After thinking about it, I think I probably prepared too much.

He knew all the types and weaknesses of the monsters in the dungeon, and although

the paths were not perfect, he knew almost all of them, so he never got lost, and

above all, he knew how to turn the ‘corrupted superhumans’ who had made the Labyrinth of Corrupted Souls infamous into ‘innocent friends’.

There was no reason for it to be difficult, except for a few tricky monsters that would appear later.

No, that’s not true…

but it’s still one of the worst dungeons in name and reality.

I looked up at the ceiling and muttered.

“Is it okay to do this?…”

Cheon Seol-ah said with a chuckle.

“Team leader, is this your first time in the dungeon? It’s because I’m so nervous. “I’ve been to the dungeon a few times before, and it’s not as dangerous as I thought.”

“…Oh yeah?”

Cheon Seol-ah nodded as if to reassure me.

“sure. And from what I can see, this is a relatively easy dungeon. Trust me because this is what an experienced person says!”

“Oh yeah. “Experienced person…”

Let’s just say it’s a good thing that you feel that way.

In this way, conquering the ‘Labyrinth of Corrupted Souls’ has already become like a picnic.

Move forward and if you see a monster, blow the whistle and

beep!

First, a kingfisher was put into a place suspected of being a trap.

“Wangguho. Go in.”

“Yes…”

Wang Guho, who was hesitant at first, realized that it was no use and then obediently walked into the trap.

A moment later, the ceiling collapsed, crushing Wangguho with a pile of stones.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

A mournful scream came from inside.

“Uh…ah…ah-!!”

Again, I had no intention of harassing Wang Guhao at all.

It was only training his personality, which became stronger the more he got hit.

Thanks to my consideration, Wang Guho was able to strengthen his personality by being baptized with fire pits, falling rocks, and various types of iron skewers for three days.

And for three days straight, the little boy

beeped!

“sit down!”

Beep!

“Get up!”

Beep!

“wait!”

I was having fun with my innocent friends using the whistle I gave them.

Even though it feels like training for a mutt, I believe it’s okay as long as it’s fun for both of us.

As such, the trip to the dungeon went smoothly.

…Until that evening.

That evening.

I was sitting on a folding chair and eating a baked egg when the team members approached me with a troubled look on their faces.

“That team leader…”

It was Cheon Il-nam who spoke.

“What’s wrong?”

When I looked at him with a puzzled look, he nodded seriously.

“…I think we’ve run into some trouble.”

At the same time, my expression also became serious.

Well then.

It made no sense to enter one of the worst dungeons and not encounter any accidents.

Reflecting on how arrogant I had become over the past few days, I straightened my posture and asked seriously.

“Is there a problem?”

Could it be a machine malfunction? Or a virus?

Someone on the team may have behaved unexpectedly or gone missing without anyone seeing.

I made up my mind.

“There is not enough food.”

“…….”

I asked, quietly putting down the baked egg I was holding on the table.

“How much is not enough?”

“I expected a 5-day round trip to conquer the dungeon, so I brought enough food for 10 days… but I’m almost out of it already.”

Cheon Il-nam looked at the innocent friends playing with Lily.

“We have to feed all the superhumans over there and the injured people in the vehicle.”

On both sides, Cheon Yi-nam and Cheon Seol-ah also nodded seriously.

Although I was a little embarrassed about the eggs, I also took their words seriously.

In fact, one of the most serious problems when entering a dungeon was food.

That’s why we always prepare plenty, but as the number of people unexpectedly increased, we ran out of food.

When rescuing the superhumans of the two guilds, it would have been nice if they had also taken their food with them.

All of their vehicles were destroyed and most of their food was trampled or contaminated by monsters.

The leaders seemed to have thought of a solution to the problem of their own.

“So from now on, I plan to cut the rations in half for all but those who go into battle.”

I dismissed that opinion.

“That’s not possible. “It’s all about making a living.”

“But there is another way…”

I said, getting up.

“We can procure it locally.”

In the 20 years I’ve been going in and out of dungeons, this isn’t the first time I’ve encountered this problem.

Of course, I knew in advance which monsters I could and could not eat in this dungeon.

“Do you have cooking utensils?”

Cheon Seol-ah nodded to my question.

“yes. “You can make what you need.”

“Then that’s it.”

I packed a large bag. And then I looked back at the leaders who looked worried.

“I’ll be back soon.”

And less than 30 minutes later, I came back with a bag full of ingredients.

If you are in charge of a group, you must lead by example in times like this.

I rolled up my sleeves.

I planned to cook for my hungry team members.

“Please bring me some pots and cooking utensils.”

After a while, the equipment team came carrying a large pot.

“hmm? Why do you guys look at me like that?”

I don’t know why, but from earlier, the little boy and Wang Guho were looking at me with anxious faces.

“That…”

“Team leader… no way…”

“This? Shall I show you?”

I opened the bag and showed the ingredients inside.

They had already been neatly cleaned.

Red-eyed poisonous rat with head and intestines removed.

A bomb spider with its bomb bag removed.

Yellow-footed centipede, full of nutritional value.

Rental Dungeon Nutrition Recipe

[The worst dungeon, the last…]

At that moment, the little boy clung to my waist and Wang Guho hugged me from behind.

“eye patch-! don’t do it!”

“Team leader T, please…! Why did you come all the way here…!”

“throw away! eye patch! throw away! Run away-!”

“Everyone! “Get that cauldron away from me quickly!”

They tried to get me as far away from the pot as possible.

I was so moved by the two guys’ violent reaction that I screamed.

“They put so much thought into making these! hey! Am I making poison? This is all good for your body! “I won’t be able to eat it later because I don’t have it!”

However, due to the fierce opposition of the instructors who confirmed the contents, I decided to only feed the food I made to my innocent friends.

The next day.

We encountered the Black Hound Guild.

“Uuuu…”

“Uuuu…”

About 20 people with black veins bulging on their faces and emitting black auras.

And above their heads, a little devil was flying.

Kehihihihi!

The devil was small, maybe 50cm tall.

A slim, two-headed body with skin as red as blood.

There was a small, oval-shaped mirror embedded in its forehead.

Kehihihihi!

The devil flew like a hummingbird over the heads of the Black Hound Guild members and laughed. The black energy emanating from the mirror embedded in the guy’s forehead was connected to people like a thread.

Its name is [Mirror Demon].

Among the monsters that inhabit the Labyrinth of Corrupted Souls, it was one of the most difficult to deal with.

Simply put, mid-boss level.

The moment I found him, I stepped forward with excitement.

“Ready for battle!”

Finally, an opponent who could be considered a crisis has appeared for us as well.
