Chapter 130 - What’s with the Earth?
writer:Class Trashero      update:2022-08-22 13:34
  The inside of the secret passage was clear, indirect evidence that someone had already been here before me. Magician E said that she was here, but it seemed that someone besides her was here recently. I continued to move deeper into the tunnel. Healer E’s footsteps could be heard behind me, but I ignored them. Now, I needed to stay focused.

  I didn’t know where the traps might lie.

  “Well, there’s nothing? You should’ve said it earlier.”


  The spirits living in the dungeon said it was safe here. Therefore, I didn’t hesitate any longer and quickly set off to my final destination.

  “Ha! So it’s true.”


  As Magician E and Healer E said, there was mechanical equipment here. When I first saw the golems, whose structure resembled robots, it seemed to me that they were something alien to the fantasy world, but here it was felt even more strongly. This place smelled more of science rather than magic. The power source, which was the most important component of golems, was based on magic, so they could hardly be called a complete science product.

  Like, a Marionette. No matter how skillfully you make a doll, it will still be a doll. But as soon as she began to move with the help of magic, it was already an android. The equipment in front of my eyes was the exact opposite. If you were to describe its shape, it would be more like a capsule. And the size was such that a person could fit there. However, I didn’t know what would happen if you got in there.

  “No matter how you look, science is involved here.”


  With my meager knowledge of the school curriculum, I couldn’t understand anything. But I knew the language in which everything was written.

  “I haven’t seen my native language for a long time.”


  After reading the long explanation in the drawing, I frowned.

  ?Interest: What is written there?

  Good question, Miss Trainee. I’ll read it.

  “Having learned that this world is an artificial garden for my cultivation, I began to look for a way to return to Earth. But in my school years, I was an outcast, and my grades left much to be desired, so it was a difficult task for me. But at that moment, I met a beautiful demon. Her name is Scioscia. She was a cruel woman with breasts you couldn’t take your eyes off…”


  Then there were only some jokes and excuses. He praised the Demon Lord’s daughter Scioscia and talked about how he confessed his feelings to her, but was refused in the end. Thanks to this, the content got down to business.

  “Scioscia, who hurt my feelings, gave me the knowledge of how to make equipment to return to Earth. When I was still a schoolboy, it was difficult to realize, but I was made wiser with the help of the skills of the fantasy world, and it was within my power. I did everything as Scioscia taught me.”


  Here was a moron. He did everything as he was told, and he still had the nerve to say that he was smart. In addition to this, here was the main thing.

  “I was deceived by Scioscia. No, she wasn’t lying because I have returned to Earth. But just a little. I can send only my avatar, created from experience points, and control it remotely while I have enough strength for it. This is a success, but only partially. My soul and body were forever tied to the fantasy world.”


  “God…so it was true…” Healer E muttered, looking at the equipment.

  “You didn’t seem to believe it.”


  “Yes. I didn’t think it was possible to move through dimensions.”


  The author’s story was still not over. It looked more like a diary now.

  “The fees for moving between dimensions are terrible. Since you instantly lose your level and skills. Thanks to this, I could be on Earth for a long time, but I spent the strength that I had collected for seven years in just a week. And I ran into a real problem. Weakened, I’m stuck in this secret place.”


  There was no need to read the rest. There, the author only wrote about how hungry he was.

  “Sorry for him.”


  “Thanks to him, we learned valuable information.”


  I didn’t know how many years the author was a Hero, but seven years was a long time, and it took only seven days to use all that experience. The value for money was terrible.

  Rubbing my chin, I began to think. The capsule itself was small, but the equipment in hexagonal iron blocks was quite huge. I wouldn’t put them in the Storage; I needed to find another way out. In the fantasy world, you could get as many experience points as you want, but it was more difficult with skills.

  “It’s a shame.”


  I couldn’t dare to use it. If this thing took my transcendental skills, then I might just explode from the pressure that rose.

  “Hero, will it work?”


  Having touched the capsule, Healer E carefully asked, “If you’re so interested, want to use it on yourself?”


  “N-no!”


  This was a common reaction. I gave up the mechanical equipment without regret, and I focused on Scioscia, who passed these schemes to the author. She must learn how to create an avatar using only experience points.

  ? Surprise: Cadet Kang Han Soo. Do you want to use this anyway?

  If you could only lose experience points, then I wouldn’t mind using this device. Thanks to the Natural Human race, I had no problem collecting more. This equipment was eating many experience points, and I could absorb huge amounts of experience points. This would create some balance.

  I definitely thought that it was worth a try.

  “Scioscia…she should probably be looked for in the northern continent.”


  I could safely get to the northern continent, but I was incredibly lazy. And there was no guarantee that she was there. There was a possibility that Scioscia was one of the leaders or even the boss of the black market, but if you were to go to the branch of the black market and asked to meet with her, they would never comply with this request. During the first playthrough, when I fought against the black market, I didn’t even know about the existence of Scioscia.

  The demon would never meet a hero. It would be better to immediately visit the Demon Lord’s fortress. Because Pedonar was her father, shouldn’t he know where his daughter lived? Although he just won’t say.

  ”Let’s go. I found out everything I wanted.”


  “Wait! This is the Queen’s handwriting,” Healer E said, holding a piece of paper in her hands. I was only focused on mechanical equipment, but there were a lot of other things around here. I didn’t know if he ran away or died of hunger, but that guy lived here. Household items remained to mark his existence, and on the floor was the Magic Circle of Spatial Transfer. It must be associated with the escape scroll.

  “What is written there?”


  “This is…a will. It says that whoever finds this device must not destroy it but must use it. This is a commission because the equipment will help the development of Fantasy. The queen tried it personally on herself. Although not at all long.”


  There seemed to be a story about how she visited Earth.

  “Come to think of it…”


  Pictures hung on the walls as if drawn by a preschooler. I didn’t pay attention to them because they looked like children’s scribbles, but looking closer, I realized that these were cityscapes from Earth. Buildings, cars, traffic lights, suspension bridges, metro…


  All of this wasn’t to be found in the fantasy world. I missed home even more; I wanted to return even sooner.

  “It drives me crazy.”


  I remembered sitting over a dirty pot during the first playthrough, although now nothing had changed. I missed being able to flush a toilet. But more than that, I would like to know if my parents are okay. With this device, I could go to Earth and immediately find out how they were, but this required a lot of thought.

  First, safety. While I was in the capsule, someone might attack me, and the cost of such a move shouldn’t be ignored, either. It would be very problematic if all my skills were to disappear. I decided that someday I would manage without them, but now I needed them to keep things safe. I was also worried about the consequences. Therefore…


  “Healer E, get inside.”


  “What?!”


  “You promised that you would help the Hero when I pulled you out of the theater? Was it just empty words?”


  “It-it wasn’t, but…”


  Healer E hesitated. I knew what she was worried about, as I was worried about the same thing.

  “There’s nothing to be done with the skills, but I’ll take responsibility for your experience points and restore them. If you want, I can give you Spirits. Taking this opportunity, you can start everything from scratch, becoming a Shaman.”


  “Really?”


  “I’m a fair Hero. And I’m not lying.”


  “Oh…okay.”


  The doubtful Healer E opened the capsule lid and went inside. And as soon as she closed it, green gas filled the entire space inside like poison.

  Trembling…


  The elf began to tremble with fear. Wouldn’t she be choking like that? As if laughing at my concern, Healer E began to breathe evenly. I hastened to tell her.

  “Go and find out what is happening in that world. I’ll try to make it a day longer.”


  “All right, Hero.”


  Healer E replied out of a sense of duty, and her eyes became like a drug addict. And her level immediately began to fall.

  Level 999 →Level 756 → Level 755 →Level 754

  At once, it dropped significantly, but then this process slowed down. However, I knew how hard it was to raise even 1 level at such high values, so I wasn’t in a laughing mood. It was like an earthen pot that had a big crack. However…


  Level 753 → Level 796 → Level 831 → Level 875

  I tried to replenish the water in this pot. I could imagine how lost the elf would be when she first came to Earth, but she needed at least a day to collect useful information.

  “It’s awful.”


  Reading the explanations, I hoped that everything was wrong, but it was good that I still read the instructions.

  ? Race: Elf

  ? Level: 638

  ? Specialization: Unemployed (Experience 110%)

  ? Skills: -

  ? Condition: Hallucination

  Healer E’s skills were gone; nothing remained of them. If I hadn’t supplied her with experience points, her level would have dropped to 1 as well.

  ?Expectation: I wonder what the result will be.

  Me too, Miss Trainee. Hmm?

  Level 638 → Level 637 → Level 253 → Level 1

  Healer E’s level suddenly dropped. There was a lot of time before the day ended, and I provided her with enough experience points. Then what happened?

  Chiii-

  The green smoke in the capsule began to dissipate… which meant that the device had stopped working.

  “Cough, cough!”


  Healer E bent over from the capsule and fell to the floor. She began to vomit and then cough violently. But I didn’t care.

  ”Hey! What happened?”


  “Hero. Cough, cough! I found myself in a forest of huge trees made of stone and glass, and it was full of people. Suddenly, beautiful girls descended from the sky and destroyed the trees, and I found myself under the rubble together with people. I have a strong body, so I didn’t die, but in the end … although I do not understand the language of people,…it seems that those girls were called Valkyries.”


  “Valkyries!”


  This was what the First Hero called the Legion of Golems. It seemed that aliens from another world continue to attack Earth. Should Healer E be sent there again?

  I shook my head. It wouldn’t change anything. There were Heroes on Earth who would deal with the invaders.

  “Heck! It’s not good! You did a good job, now please excuse me.”


  “Mmmm?!”


  I gave the promised reward to Healer E: experience points and Spirits.

  ? Race: Elf

  ? Level: 999+

  ? Specialization: Shaman (Blessing = Spirit ↑)

  ? Skills: Spirit A, Blessing B, Charisma F, Love F

  ? Condition: Embarrassment, Excitement, Recovery

  Pulling my tongue out of Healer E’s mouth, I immediately turned away. There was noo time to waste. But when I said goodbye to her, I didn’t forget to say kind words in the end.

  “Healer E, no, Shaman E. I will pray that you will meet a nice guy who will see you as a woman, not as a man. In the name of the Divine Hero, I bless you. Mollan.”


  I opened the wings of a just Hero, and then headed for the exit.

  “Get away!”


  “Guoooo?!”


  “Guoooo!”


  I didn’t have time to play with the dungeon losers because I needed to meet the Demon Lord.
