?Quest Complete And Back Outside


    [Ace POV],


    If it had been before, I would have turned to see what it was since I knew it had to be a notification from the primordial chronicle, but I couldn''t because it appeared that the oil puppeteer had something nned for me even before it died.


    Who would have guessed that the oil puppeteer''s body would explode just as my de made contact with him?


    This creature knew he was going to die, and he didn''t want to go down alone, so he tried to drag me along with him.


    His blood was also not the expected red, but rather ck. It''s even unclear how he managed to explode his body in the first ce.


    Fortunately, I was quick enough to escape the area where the explosion would have caused more damage, as I avoideding into contact with the strange ck blood of the oil puppeteer.


    Thankfully, Emma was also able to react in time, casting a light shield in front of me to keep the ck blood of the oil puppeteer, which I couldn''t avoid in time, from touching me.


    After this, I turned to look at the slightly bloodied and exhausted Emma and thanked her before returning to my previous location and seeing the ck blood that belonged to the oil puppeteer and noticing that wherever the blood touched, everything melted.


    The earth melted at a faster rate than when the oil puppeteer shot that ck liquid at me. The ck blood of the oil puppeteer and the ck liquid sprayed by the oil puppet at the time may be the same thing.


    What a vicious specimen of a human being.


    Even in death, you intend to melt me.


    I turned to Emma, who was approaching me, as I pondered about this and quickly forgot about it.


    "Are you all right?" Emma inquired as I became perplexed upon hearing her.


    "All right, about what?" As I turned to look at the now-dead silent cemetery, I asked.


    "You just killed someone, you know," Emma said, her gaze fixed on my face as if she was trying to find an expression.


    Only after hearing what Emma had to say did I realize that I had indeed killed someone with my hands.


    ording to my research and previous ns that I didn''t end up carrying out, I should be panicking or at the very least ufortable because I had just killed someone for the first time in my life, but I felt no emotion or difort inside me and felt perfectly normal.


    ''Looks like killing someone doesn''t work either,'' I thought as I dropped the subject in my head and didn''t speak about it again, and Emma, who saw this, did the same and didn''t question further.


    Emma was also unusually calm even though someone had been killed in front of her.


    Perhaps because the body is no longer present, it has nosting effect.


    Seeing this, I paused my observations and summoned the primordial chronicle in my head to study the notification that appeared when the bell-like sound appeared in my head when I killed the oil puppeteer.


    [You have acquired the primordial records of Rank 1 Oil Puppeteer Level 29],


    [Instant Hidden Dungeon: Cemetery Assault],


    [Type: Quest],


    [Quest: The vige has been experiencing some strange events in recent days, as some vigers appear to have started disappearing without a trace, causing hidden fear in the hearts of everyone in the vige.


    Help in resolving this issue to clear the dungeon.],


    [Status: Completed],


    [You resolved the vige''s current hidden problem by killing thest oil puppet in the vige who was abducting the vigers, but seeing as this was insufficient, you decided to end the whole matter and resolve the vige''s problem by killing the mastermind behind the problem, and finally resolved the vige''s problempletely as you are eligible to confirm your submission for the quest to clear the dungeon],<novelnext></novelnext>


    Seeing the new summary of how wepleted the quest, I was able to confirm that the cemetery was definitely the key topleting the dungeon.


    It''s a good thing everything worked out in the end and we were able to finish the quest in another way.


    Emma was primarily responsible for our current progress because she was the reason we were able to get this far in the end.


    Emma''s voice interrupted my thoughts as she spoke, bringing me back to reality.


    "It''s all over now, right?" Emma inquired, her gaze fixed on me.


    Seeing this, I nodded and spoke up.


    "Yes, it is," I said as I turned to look at the two items that could have counted as spoils from this battle but were damaged due to the oil puppeteer''s explosion.


    The two items I''m referring to are the big brush that the oil puppeteer used to draw and as a weapon, and therge scroll.


    Both items piqued my interest, especially the brush, because I was curious about the material used to make it, which allowed it topete with a rare-grade weapon, but both the scroll and the brush were corroded by the oil puppeteer''s ck blood.


    But now that I think about it, if all it took for the brush to be destroyed was corrosive blood, it''s not going to be that valuable, and maybe it was because of the oil puppeteer that the brush was able to contend with my twin des in the first ce.


    As I was thinking about these things, I turned to Emma and spoke.


    "Are you ready to leave?" I asked Emma, and she nodded before speaking.


    "Yes, let''s go," she said, adding, "I''d like to take a bath after this."


    I nodded in response and was about to leave the dungeon since we were done with whatever we wanted to do here when I realized I didn''t know how to leave the dungeon in the first ce.


    As I considered this, I decided to just think of leaving the dungeon as a panel suddenly appeared in front of me as I read the texts written on it.


    [Participants found requesting to leave the dungeon],


    [... Quest has beenpleted and the [Instant Hidden Dungeon: Cemetery Assault] has been cleared],


    [Request epted],


    [Do you want to leave the dungeon?],


    [Note that once you have agreed to leave the dungeon, you cannot change your mind],


    As I read the text on the panel in front of me and realized its purpose, I turned to look at Emma to see if she received the same message, only to receive a nod from her when our gazes met.


    Seeing this, I made no further attempts to speak as I willed my thoughts to the primordial chronicle and chose to leave the dungeon.


    ''Yes''


    And as soon as the primordial chronicle received my message, my vision blurred, and the next thing I knew, I was no longer in the cemetery.


    ....
