I Obtained a Mythic Item - Chapter 8

Episode 8 Guild Dungeon (1)

After the Aesir system was given and the world changed like a game.

The level has come to act as a decisive factor in determining the rank of an Awakener.

Even if the level is the same, if the level is higher, it has more stats, so it is treated well, and even if the level is high, the salary of the lower level raider will be reduced.

It’s a simple story.

Unlike light games, it is very difficult to level up in this Aesir system, and to raise the level efficiently, a raider academy like today’s Milles was established.

Thanks to this, the importance of the level at the time of admission goes without saying.

This is because the level not only determines all of the early grades, but also helps to grow faster at Milles Academy.

It is similar to how big money brings more money.

“Come this way.”

After being guided by Park Seong-jae and entering the Yeonhwa Guild, Jaehyun’s eyes widened.

‘As expected, the number one guild in Korea. It’s an overwhelming scale.’

A huge mana core stood out across the marble floor and the center of the stone statue in the shape of a hero.

There is a simple security system on the front that recognizes the ID card and lets you enter.

Park Seong-jae suddenly opened his mouth to Jae-hyun, who admired the inside of the guild once again.

“I have prepared the items necessary for recovery and simple dungeon raiding tools in advance.

As for the equipment, I will lend you the extra money given to Yeonhwa Guild members, so you can use it first.”

“Thank you for caring me.”

Park Seong-jae rummaged through his pockets as if he had something left to give to Jae-hyun as he greeted him.

After a while. He took out a stone that was leaking blue light from his chest and handed it to Jaehyun.

“It would be safer to take this with you.”

“This is…….”

“Warp Stone. If you break it, you can return directly to the guild entrance, so you can use it in case of a dangerous situation.”

Park Seong-jae’s favor made Jae-hyun pause for a while.

“My heart is grateful. But it’s too expensive, so it’s not easy to get it …….”

Warp stones actually traded in the market are worth about 20 million won.

A rare item that drops with a low probability only after going through B-level or higher dungeons. It was a rare item that was hard to see even for radar workers.

‘Is this what I’m going to pay off my debt? But…’

Jaehyun wanted to get the warp stone right away, but he barely held it in.

‘We will continue to have a relationship in the future. There’s nothing good about showing money.’

If you create the impression that you are easily swayed by money, others will treat you easily.

Here it was necessary to step back and take what you wanted.

“I’m sorry. I cannot receive it.”

Seongjae Park smiled softly and put the warp stone back into Jaehyun’s hand.

“no. please accept Apologies for yesterday’s rudeness.

More than anything…… It is also a token of gratitude for treating the CEO. I hope you will accept it.”

“If you say so… thank you.”

Jaehyun took over the warp stone without further refusal. This was enough to save face, so I wouldn’t have made a bad impression.

Jaehyun laughed inwardly.

‘Even if that’s not the case, I wanted to buy at least one with donations, but it turned out well.’

A dungeon is always a place where the danger of death lurks.

Not preparing the minimum survival plan in such a place is an act of suicide, and Jaehyun had no intention of dying.

“Are you really okay, anyway? It is dangerous to enter a dungeon alone, no matter how low it is. Is there any reason why you must go alone?”

Seongjae Park asked with a worried face. The atmosphere is quite different from yesterday.

Jaehyun shook his hand as if it didn’t matter.

“Just what. I want to level up a bit.”

Park Seong-jae’s face slowly turned into astonishment at his answer.

It wasn’t enough that a 16-year-old kid asked to be allowed to enter the dungeon alone, and the reason was because of leveling up.

If not foolish, it was one of two bold choices.

And, in Park Seong-jae’s opinion, Jae-hyun definitely fell into the latter category.

“Then let’s go. I will take you to the car.”

Park Seong-jae led Jae-hyun to a low-level dungeon owned by the guild, about 10 km away from the guild building.

E-class dungeon.

It was a place where Jaehyun often went and hunted monsters during his martial arts days.

Tsutsutsu…….

A small amount of magic flowed from the blue gate that seemed to be the entrance to the dungeon. Jaehyun lightly put his hand on it and measured its magical power.

‘are you okay. This is definitely an E-class dungeon.’

Before entering the dungeon. Park Seong-jae once again asked Jae-hyun to trust him.

“If by any chance something happens in the dungeon, please let me know.”

“yes. then. Let’s go in.”

Jaehyun said hello and took a step into the dungeon.

and the next moment.

Jaehyun had to fall into a completely unexpected situation.

– You have entered the dungeon.

―Users are transported to a specific location by the Nornir system.

‘What is it? What the heck… what are you talking about?’

A similar feeling to when I found < Odin's Lost Eye > the other day.

At the same time, Jaehyun felt extreme dizziness and vomiting. A strange and terrifying sensation, as if being sucked into somewhere.

And Jaehyun finally arrived at a certain place.

―The current location is Helheim’s ‘Land of the Dead’.

* * *

Chandler.

The sound of turning paper is heard. This is a sound that can often be heard in the private office of Seongeun Yoo, representative of the Yeonhwa Guild.

Yoo Sung-eun was yawning while processing payment documents in her private office.

“Ha-am~ By the way. Will it be okay in the Ajin Dungeon named Min Jae-hyun?”

Yesterday, Min Jae-hyeon proposed to the Yeonhwa Guild to borrow an E-level low-level dungeon.

At first, of course, I planned to oppose it in principle. It’s because he’s still underage and hasn’t officially become a member of Yeonhwa’s guild yet.

But at the same time, Yoo Seong-eun became curious.

What level of talent did that kid named Jaehyun Min have?

Even if it is an E-class low-level dungeon, it is close to impossible for an aspiring raider to clear alone.

Even if you are born with a natural talent, it is still just a gemstone.

Jaehyun couldn’t have been unaware of that fact.

‘But he asked me to let him enter the guild dungeon.’

Yoosung lightly bit his lips. It was a habit that came out whenever there was something interesting.

Perhaps Jaehyun Min knew how to clear the dungeon. That’s why he must have asked to borrow the dungeon in strict secrecy.

Thinking like that makes me even more excited.

‘We have to recruit Min Jae-hyeon into our guild somehow.’

Showing a strong will, she put down the papers she was flipping through.

at that time.

smart.

When he heard the knocking sound, Yoo Seong-eun said with a bright smile on his face.

“You’re Seongjae’s brother? Come in.”

The door opened and Seongjae Park appeared.

Yoo Seong-eun asked in an excited voice.

“What did I ask for?”

“Here it is.”

Seongjae Park handed her a document file and added.

“This is the profile file for Min Jaehyun.”

“thank you. brother.”

An interesting smile spread across Yoo Seong-eun’s mouth as she received the file.

Yoo Seong-eun immediately unfolded the profile file that Park Seong-jae handed over. A file containing basic information and specific details about the Awakened Min Jae-hyun.

Park Seong-jae gulped and looked at Yoo Seong-eun’s hand as she turned the page.

‘It’s rare for the CEO to directly scout radar candidates. This must mean that Min Jae-hyun has something special.’

Yoo Seong-eun asked Park Seong-jae to investigate his background right after sending Min Jae-hyeon back yesterday.

From basic profiles to family relationships. The middle school you came from and the age you woke up to, etc. Park Seong-jae has scraped all the information that could be useful for Jae-hyun’s scouting.

And in the process, he obtained two shocking pieces of information.

Chark.

Yoo Seong-eun, who was reading the file while turning over the paper, stopped at one section.

Yoo Seong-eun was surprised and said.

“what?! A martial arts aspiration? But how could such magic…!”

Park Seong-jae helped with a calm voice.

“I was also surprised when I first saw that section. But something even more shocking remains. Look at the back page.”

At Park Seong-jae’s words, Yoo Seong-eun turned one more page with trembling hands.

Yoo Seong-eun, who was reading the profile, stopped at one section again. Soon, her lips started to quiver.

After a moment of silence,

Yoo Seong-eun looked at Park Seong-jae’s face and opened his mouth slowly.

“……is this for real?”

“If it’s not a machine malfunction… that’s for sure.”

Yoo Seong-eun moved her gaze to a part of the file again.

There was absolutely incredible information written there.

―Awakened Min Jae-hyeon [Magical aptitude: 97%]

***As it is confidential, disclosure to the outside world is strictly prohibited.***

After a while.

Yoosung said in a trembling voice.

“brother. As soon as you come out of the dungeon, please contact Jaehyun Min right away. Let’s meet anytime.”

“yes? What do you mean by that all of a sudden…….”

A meaningful smile spread across Yoo Seong-eun’s mouth at Park Seong-jae’s words.

A face stained with greed, like a lion facing its prey.

“I wanted to check it out for myself. Jaehyun Min. The child’s talent.”

* * *

―The user is transported to a specific location by the Nornir system.

―The current location is Helheim’s ‘Land of the Dead’.

cooong!

“Cuck!”

Extreme dizziness felt right after using the warp portal for a long time.

The disparate magical power rushed over Jaehyun like a wave, causing him to vomit.

A bizarre sensation, as if constantly being swept away by the current in a submerged water surface.

“Ugh…….”

Jaehyun looked around, barely calming his throbbing stomach.

As the system said, this place is the site of the dead. It is in the middle of a cemetery lined with dead bodies.

“Damn it…….”

Not long ago, the Nornir System brought itself here to ‘Helheim’.

Helheim.

One of the nine worlds of Norse mythology, the world of the dead managed by Loki’s daughter Hel.

Jaehyun wiped the cold sweat with his sleeve and recalled the myth and reality he knew.

‘The dungeon was modeled after the seven worlds except for Midgard and Asgard.’

Niflheim, the world of frost, Muspelheim, the world of flames, Muspelheim, the world of giants, Jotunheim, the world of the elves, Alfheim, the world of the dark elves, Spartalfame, the world of the Vana gods, Vanaheim, the world of the gods.

And the last remaining world is Helheim.

‘It was definitely an E-class dungeon. Why did the system bring me to Helheim?’

Jaehyun frowned.

Generally, Helheim is one of the dungeons that are difficult for beginners to attack.

It is because the fear of facing an enemy who comes back to life after death is indescribable, and it is difficult to deal with it without possessing divine power.

The situation was not good, but Jaehyun made up his mind.

‘It’s better If it’s Helheim, it’s perfect for testing new powers.’

[Sacrifice], a skill obtained while treating Yoo Sung-eun.

Originally, it is a recovery skill, but when attacking the undead, it is a powerful skill that changes into a wide-area attack skill, 《Judgment of Light》.

If you use < Judgment of Light >, you should be able to defeat weak undead monsters.

What remains is how to clear this dungeon.

‘This strong magic… There is a boss at the end.’

It was about how to defeat the boss and get out.

The time when Jaehyun was lost in the energy of the boss.

ping!

A sharp arrow shot from somewhere.

Jaehyun, who noticed it belatedly, twisted his body with minimal movement to avoid the arrow.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!

Only then did the enemies come into Jaehyun’s eyes.

Wraith staring at herself while holding a sharp scythe, a skeleton archer holding a bow, and even a draug.

Jaehyun swallowed his saliva.

“I can’t help it. I have no choice but to try.”

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!!

The monsters rushed at Jaehyun all at once.
