The moment Loren saw the face of the man who had fallen, he involuntarily took a couple of steps backward. But he immediately felt a shadow over his head, and he jumped away from the spot. Almost at the same time that Loren jumped, an old woman fell onto the spot where he had been standing. It was an old woman who, by all appearances, had slammed head first into the floor, and her neck was bent in a direction that suggested she would not survive. But without much pause, she also rose up…-

It did not take long for Lapis to return from the compounding room holding thin ceramic containers filled with clear, colorless liquid in her hands. They drank up the containers Lapis offered and took a sigh of relief; even if the parasites had entered their bodies, this drug would make it difficult for them to survive and reach their brains “I’ve done some examination on the equipment, but things aren’t looking good.” Ivy said as she returned the empty container to Lapis. Lorren…

Loren’s group did not relax for a while, even after Noel had disappeared. Transporting was a tricky thing; even if no one was there a moment ago, someone could appear a moment later. They were bracing themselves for the possibility that Noel might suddenly appear out of nowhere after pretending to have vanished, but Ivy’s muttering made them realize that they were wrong. “It seems she has really gone.” “She’s not coming back, is she?” In response to Loren’s…

If you knew that there was someone there, it would be easy to be prepared. And if you know who that someone was, it would be even easier to be prepared. Or so Loren had thought, but the reality was that things didn’t always work out that way. As he and his companions quietly peeked around the corner leading to the door to their destination, they were thinking about a trouble specific to the Ancient Kingdom’s ruins. “If this was a normal building, we could take strong measures such as firing…

Loren offered a silent prayer, and no one called out to him. After a while, as the other three continued to watch, he crouched down beside Mills’ corpse and began to examine it. Removing a metal tag from the body he tossed it to Ivy, who caught it and immediately tucked it into her pocket. If possible, Loren would also like to retrieve the Adventurers’ Guild registration cards of Mills’ former companions, but he had no idea where they were. And if they had been swallowed by the swarm of…

“More keep coming!” As Loren glanced back over his shoulder to check behind him, he saw that the swarm of black centipedes chasing them continued to grow in number, covering the floor of the sewer passage like a black carpet. Fortunately for Loren’s party, the centipedes were slowing down, probably due to the insecticide effect of the pills Lapis had thrown into the sewage, and together with the slow-moving undead, they showed no sign of catching up with the party, which was rather…

(Xemul: Fair warning, due to the colorful description of disgusting content in this chapter, we strongly recommend you to refrain from consuming any food while reading.) “Prepare yourself for whatever comes out.” Loren wondered if such a thing was truly possible to do, and how much it would help. He supposed people could be prepared, but as for keeping your composure no matter what actually came up, he believed only those with great character would be able to accomplish.…

“Now, which way shall we proceed?” There were no sights of the group of people who had entered the sewers before them, and they had no other clues. The sewer itself extended straight from the stairway where Loren’s group entered to both left and right, but whether they looked to the left or to the right, there was only a continuous passageway, and there were no signs pointing them in which direction to go. “Should we throw some sticks?” “We don’t have any…

After returning to the inn, or rather the grounds of the inn, Lapis immediately unwrapped the bundle of flowers that Loren had carried, made a fire, assembled some equipment she had brought out from who-knew-where. After that, she did something incomprehensible: she began to shred and grind the flowers, then stuffed them into some kind of steaming liquid. “It’s like an alchemy.” Preparing the equipment, measuring the amount of ingredients to be added, and occasionally checking the…
