Chapter 3 : Book of Guild Las Strange
At the university, people are making preparations and calling to see if celebrities can come. Meanwhile Lynn Jeonghyo is playing the piano for her new album. She then tells her manager to free up her schedule for the next 3 days.
The manager asks for what. She says personal privacy. The manager respects that but asks for the destination at least. Lynn tells her Korea University. Someone she knows goes there, and she’s going to try to be friends.
Hegel and the group end up as the first discoverers of Keula Sorcerer’s dungeon and get the usual bonuses. They start battling and face off against a blind monster that’s lvl 234. They hunt for an hour and the enchanter lvls up once along with the collection of a lot of items. They are confident they can clear the dungeon.
Weed arrives at Dale Kingdom and looks through the booklet left behind by Hegel. Its information is spread over 8 chapters. The scene shifts back to Hegel and Cyanide beginning lunch while the others ask about the dungeon. They discuss about the possible depth of dungeons.
Hegel brags about how he won’t die since his armor is top class. Its really heavy but has defense that exceeds normal armors by 5-6 times. It costs way over 50,000 gold and also has magic resistance. On the 2nd floor they start encountering poison attacking monsters.
Since he was the only tank he was forced to intercept all the attacks which were basically spit. He wields his rupture mace that cost 6.8 million won. As a champion, he then uses the lvl 300+ skill earth wave that shocks the surrounding 7m radius area.
Although he lacked skill proficiency, it was still pretty strong, making everyone in awe of him. On the third floor they encounter a labyrinth and one of them activates a trap that causes the labyrinth to start crumbling around them.
When they make it to safety, the thief Cyanide informs them he has 3 things of bad news; very bad news, less bad news and unfortunate news. The less bad news is that the way they came is blocked.
The very bad news is the current area has a lot of pitfalls. The unfortunate news is only Weed can help them. They end up in despair, frustration, discouragement, and disappointment.
Hegel decides to move forward since there’s basically no other choice and that its not a big deal because the monsters that come out will be weak considering the monsters they faced so far.
Hegel starts moving and the rest inform him a bunch of spiders are all over his armor and he gets sealed in spider web. The party then notices a mamul/evil spirit has appeared; the elpin spider queen. The party resigns themselves to certain death, and say at least it was fun exploring.
Weed in the meantime is lost and can’t find the entrance. A group of several hundred monsters called roller spitters then show up and attack him with axes. Weed calls them exp and loot, then summons Van Hawk and uses moonlight sculpting blade along with seven celestial footsteps, producing afterimages since it ignores the laws of inertia.
He makes use of the skill to exploit the gaps in the battle and picks up japtem in between.
Reumi, one of the party members, then whispers Weed. He responds calmly while thinking of experience, skills, and items. She asks if he has entered the dungeon yet and after he tells her no, she warns him not to come since they fell into a trap and are waiting to die, and that he should just rest in the village.
Weed stops all of a sudden making Van Hawk wonder wtf is gonna happen now. Weed is reminded of his novice days and how their partnership came about. He then sees Van Hawk’s explosive attack, signifying that they were in different dimensions and that his movements could hardly be followed.
He’s basically pissed since Weed has to use his skill to make up for the difference between their basic abilities. He tells the monsters they are lucky and that he has to go now to deal with an urgent manner.
The monsters breaths sighs of relief, when suddenly Weed tells Van Hawk to keep hunting here and don’t forget to collect the japtem. Weed finally finds the dungeon entrance and enters without hesitation.

Chapter 4 : Demonstration of Ability
Weeds gets the message that the 2x bonus lasts for another 6 days and 11 hrs. He thinks how Cyanide probably suffered a lot to find this dungeon since he had to decipher the book. Weed thinks about thoroughly reading the book.
He then uses moonlight sculpting blade to hunt. He considers how normal people would use his Wings of Light here, where as Weed knows better. A second is all that is needed to end up dead, and using the Wings in his dwarf state is like being a drunk dwarf and the direction changing would also be dangerous.
Weed whispers Reumi on their status. She says they’re at 55% and will probably die in about 30 minutes. Weed turns his back on the entrance to the 2nd floor and says “then we have a free moment” before using his Wings to gather the japtem during
