Stuck in The Tower

Chapter 220: The First

Void Knight, Belzat.

He feels a hunger that cannot be satisfied by the curse of the void.

I don’t know if he was cursed by some guy, and that’s why he became this kind of NPC.

I think we should talk more.

Jaekyung Park hasn’t come yet and Helldying Kitchen hasn’t contacted me yet.

“You want to fill your stomach.”

“yes. As you can see, the inside is empty. Ha ha ha ha ha!”

In my opinion, it was a funny joke, but the guy with a big laugh.

I just wanted to pretend I didn’t know, but there’s a possibility that it’ll be connected to a quest, so I’ll have to listen to it.

“I look like this now, but I used to have bones and flesh. Oh, you still have bones. Ha ha ha! He said he was pretty handsome back then. If it wasn’t for his curse.”

“How about a curse?”

“The curse of the void.”

I was wondering how to bring about the curse, but he tells me on his own.

“I feel hungry no matter what I eat, and this is true. It’s a curse imprinted in my soul, and I can’t break it with my own strength. In fact, it’s a problem even if you solve it.”

up hard.

He smiles with his jawbone rattling and stares at me with empty eyes.

“It is because of a curse that I am still alive. It doesn’t make sense to move when there are only bones left. sorry If I had gotten stronger a little faster, I would have lifted the curse before it ended up like this.”

“I guess so.”

Well, I’ve never seen an NPC in undead form.

It’s embarrassing. can’t do this or that

This is not me, but Belzat’s will is important.

‘I’ll get rid of the curse!’ Even if I try, it’s okay if he refuses.

Actually, I wonder if there is a way to break the curse.

NPCs are beings that have reached at least the upper floors. I am still on the 50th floor, so the possibility of solving it is low.

It’s low…

“Do you want to lift the curse of Beljat’s void?”

Maybe it can be adjusted appropriately.

I’m not sure yet.

“I want to solve it, but I don’t want to die either. not ironic I suffered so much because of this, but I couldn’t let it go.”

Beginning with those words, Belzat spit out what had happened.

The reason why I was cursed An anecdote about digging up soil to satisfy my hunger.

He chewed and swallowed soil enough to tunnel through a huge mountain range, but his hunger did not go away and he lost his temper and ate even his own people.

After he was exiled for committing a crime, he suffered assassination.

In the end, even the assassin was caught and eaten.

“I have a lot of sins. still building Why was I restricted? It was because they were so hungry that they even ate the climbers. isn’t it funny How ugly it is to want to live like this.”

“It’s ugly… There’s nothing ugly about wanting to live. If you commit a crime, you just have to be punished that much and try to atone for the people you harmed.”

For example…

“Uh hmm. Give quests or give rewards. As an NPC, I think there are many things I can do for you.”

“Khehehehehe! okay. If you save me, I will give you recognition and more.”

“Is it real?”

“of course. If possible.”

old country.

Belzart lowered her head and looked at me.

“So far no one has succeeded. Would it be different for you?”

“Let’s try.”

“I like the cheeky guy.”

[Belzat’s Recognition – Unexpected Quest]

– NPC Belzat wants to escape from the curse of the void.

– I have no desire to die at the same time.

-Make them free from the effects of the curse without breaking it.

-Reward: Portal Creation ???

A quest has been created.

In the meantime, I’ve received numerous quests, but there was no ambiguous content like this one.

To free you from the curse without breaking the curse.

It won’t be easy.

Still, you should do everything you can.

There are a few ways that come to mind. I guess I need a test.

“First, let’s see how much it goes into the stomach. do you know Is there a limit to the curse?”

“Does such a thing come out after hearing my story? There are several mountain ranges that have been eaten.”

“no. You heard it right. Doesn’t that mean you eat everything, even if it’s not food? Open your mouth.”

“no. That’s what it means!”

I immediately activated water into Belzat’s mouth.

I’d like to put a funnel in it, but it’s not that big.

Water rushing in.

I poured it until the magic power was reduced to half, but there was no response.

“Do you feel a bit full?”

“I don’t feel anything.”

“Okay, let’s go to the next one.”

This time it’s dirt.

If they lived by digging up the soil, they would eat well.

He took out a shield and used it instead of a shovel.

It spreads a lot because it’s a tower shield.

“What do you think of me… yup yup!”

He rebelled, but even so, it was a skull with limbs tied.

He kept pumping dirt into the slinger’s mouth.

for half a day.

The whole area is a mess. Belzat was also covered in dirt.

“Ah, that doesn’t work either.”

“I said no!”

“It’s different from just hearing about it and doing it yourself.”

It wasn’t just work.

I have one thing to check.

Belzat’s reaction and story.

When I put everything together, I felt something strange.

After roughly shaking off the shield, I looked at him.

“Beljat, are you hungry? Or do you want to eat, but you are not satisfied?”

“hmm?”

At first glance, it seems like a Zen dialogue.

Let’s be more specific.

“He said he had an accident because he lost his temper. Is it because of gluttony or hunger?”

“You are asking a subtle question.”

it would be subtle Because it’s not a problem that has nothing to do with each other.

What matters is the principle of action.

appetite and hunger.

What comes first is important.

Belzat is an NPC. In addition, a person who was exiled for committing a crime.

He was targeted for assassination and attempted assassination, but in the end he survived.

Talk about how strong it is.

In general, people who can become NPCs have strong mental strength.

What is it that he can’t stand?

“I haven’t thought about it in detail, but there are a few catches. I wasn’t like this as soon as I was cursed.”

After a moment of thought, he opened his mouth.

“I wanted to eat something. My stomach was empty and I felt like I would go crazy if I didn’t eat anything. Strictly speaking, hunger came later.”

“That is enough.”

It seemed so.

If he had really gone mad from hunger, it would have been impossible to have a conversation like this. The stomach will still be hungry.

An impulsive strong appetite, that was the problem.

It was like that when I first gave her chocolate.

I asked for more. On the other hand, when fed water and soil?

There was no reaction whatsoever.

If hunger was the problem, I should have asked for more every time I gave her a piece of chocolate or a stone.

when you find a way

“Here you are.”

“To that.”

I turned my head.

I feel popular.

There is still a distance, but a target that is rapidly approaching.

“Oh, brother! You were there first!”

“Good find.”

This is Park Jae-kyung.

It seems to have fallen a little farther than me.

I’m glad you came on time though.

“Ohh. You are a new human.”

Belzart shows interest.

Until now, no one has been recognized by him.

There is no reason to come here.

At such a moment, Park Jae-kyung and I appeared, so it’s nice to see you.

“Wow, that’s big. What is this skull gourd?”

“This is NPC Belzat on the 54th floor.”

“Was it an NPC? Excuse me. I thought it was a boss mob again.”

Park Jae-gyeong This guy is also secretly not a bad guy.

Aren’t boss mobs too much?

“Hahahaha! Even so, you still talk to me. Some colorful guy didn’t even listen to me when I spoke to him, and he stuffed dirt into my mouth.”

I guess I did too much.

anyway.

“Brother, do you have time before we go to Helldying Kitchen?

“Not a lot, maybe less than an hour.”

“That’s enough. Let’s warm up a little before we go. I heard that you have to bring something with you if you are invited.”

“I heard that there is a gift exchange with the representative of Helldying Kitchen.”

“I can’t buy nice things because I don’t have money. The equipment is only for my own use, so I have nothing to give you, but instead…”

-Kooung

Park Jae-kyung took out various cooking utensils from his inventory.

Seasonings in jars separate from grill and pot.

Lean meat of a Volcano Lizard that seems to have been caught on the way. There are plenty of other ingredients prepared separately.

“Why don’t you go and cook for me? It’s a party, so we eat and drink, but it’s perfect.”

“Uh… is that so?”

I think the dishes will be prepared there.

I was a little worried, but I couldn’t say anything because I was so confident.

okay. this won’t matter

“Can I help you too?”

“Didn’t you prepare anything, too?”

“I am I just wanted to raise my skill level a bit. It’s better if you learn from the side.”

“Hahahaha! It’s good. Let’s start with the grooming.”

A guy who readily agrees.

I cleaned my clothes and equipment with the shower skill.

“What can I do?”

“Please start with the grooming. I want to steam it first.”

It’s steamed. Are you fine.

I took care of it the way Hegrick taught me.

“You have to remove the fascia there. It’s tough. Set aside the bones.”

Sometimes even letting me know when I make a mistake.

Maybe it’s because he’s been cooking for over 10 years, but he diligently moves his hands and has a wide field of vision.

30 minutes like that.

A plausible dish has been completed.

“It smells good, don’t worry about the plating, let’s taste it.”

“That’s right.”

Deokchun was the first to react.

I put the big chunk of meat in my mouth.

“That’s it!”

“It looks delicious.”

“Hahaha! It’s a frog that knows taste.”

He let out a satisfied cry.

I also have a bite.

“It melts. The seasoning is just right.”

“Then who made it?”

It was hard to dig the ground, but it went well.

The timing of a satisfying meal.

“I can even eat just one bite!”

“Right. I forgot about the big man.”

Belzart shouted.

Saliva running down your chin.

If there are no salivary glands, where does it come from?

done. Skeletons are talking, but what are you doing with saliva coming out?

“What shall I give you? This part is delicious.”

“No matter what! Just give me!”

“I can’t do that. The first impression is the most important. I’ll pick out something delicious for you.”

Park Jae-kyung chooses meat in a large bowl.

I didn’t care what Belzat shouted.

I mean, I’m obsessed with this.

By the way…

-Titling.

[The helldying kitchen party is starting soon.]

[Transferring VIPs and companions.]

“Hey, we have to go. Get ready.”

“Eh? now? there! A big man! I’ll leave it here, so eat it yourself!”

Invitations were not out of date.

A treat put down hastily.

Park Jae-kyung takes care of the cooking utensils he can reach.

The moment Park Jae-kyung and I disappear.

“Where are you going! I’m tied up! You bad guys—!”

I think I heard Belzat’s scream.

* * *

The time when Cho Hyun-soo and Park Jae-kyung were sent to Helldying Kitchen.

A group of people had gathered in the valley where Belzart was.

Those who are hiding while killing people.

They were taken aback by the unexpected situation.

“Gone!”

“Has it been recognized by Beljat?”

Slaughter Squad.

Those who united to deal with Cho Hyun-soo expressed disapproval.

Since the target of the attack has disappeared, there is no choice but to be in trouble.

All that was left was a pot with something in it and Belzart struggling towards it.

“I don’t think it was recognized by Beljat. It didn’t react like that, and it disappeared, but it didn’t create a portal.”

“There must be another reason.”

“Is it possible that he noticed us and ran away?”

“That wouldn’t be it. I wished I had attacked first when I looked at his past, but I can’t stay still.”

A situation full of speculation.

Opinions differed on the unexpected development, but the conclusion was the same.

“As it suddenly disappeared, there is a high possibility that it will come back here. Seeing as there are some items they didn’t pack, it must be that they didn’t know either.”

A situation where several utensils that Park Jae-kyung had removed for cooking are rolling around.

It was implied that the two of them were also suddenly moved.

“It’s better. From now on, I’m going to dig a trap. So that they can’t be avoided when they come back.”

Killers from all over the world began preparing for the hunt.
