Chapter 415 – Please Let Me Sleep Peacefully

Kkuhehehe. Kkueng?!

Cuengi, who was running toward Se-jun, suddenly paused.

Kku…eng. Kkueng!

[Ah… right! As expected of Great Detective Kkunan, yo. Great Detective Kkunan solved it, yo!]

Cuengi, who had momentarily confused his main character and sub-character, entered into method acting again.

“As expected, Great Detective Kkunan is great.”

Se-jun also chimed in from the side so that Cuengi could immerse himself in the role-play.

While Cuengi was immersing himself in his sub-character, Great Detective Kkunan, again like that,

“Puhuhut. The case is not solved yet, meow! Great Detective Kkunan only solved one of the many clues, meow! Now it is 0 to 1, meow!”

Theo said, burning with a competitive spirit toward Cuengi. ‘The match was not over yet, meow!’

Kkueng!

[Great Detective Kkunan will win, yo!]

“Puhuhut. I will show you the skills of Theotson, the great assistant of Great Detective Sherlock Se-jun, meow!”

Kkueng!

[Great Detective Kkunan will also show his skills, yo!]

“Puhuhut. Still, you are no match for me, meow! I, the great assistant Theotson, am a master of catching thieves, meow!”

As Theo and Cuengi ran into the building at the same time as if competing with each other,

“But what is this building?”

Se-jun walked slowly toward the huge building and looked around.

There was a broom leaning against the wall, fallen leaves gathered on the floor, and a wall replaced with new stones, unlike the stones with traces of time left in various places of the building.

There were traces of someone’s touch.

‘It is probably the thief, right? Considering the scale of the building, it seems there might be other members.’

At that moment,

“Se-jun-nim, it seems someone is living here. It must be the thief who stole my money!”

Yuren’s voice was heard from beside Se-jun.

…!

Se-jun felt his heart sink and hurriedly looked to the side. There was Yuren, the icon of misfortune.

‘Am I with Yuren?’

‘And that too without Theo or Cuengi?’

Shiver.

Goosebumps rose on Se-jun’s arms.

“Guys, wait up!”

Se-jun hurriedly entered the building.

“Se-jun-nim, let’s go together… Huck!”

Yuren, who was hurriedly chasing Se-jun who entered the building, suddenly fell into a pit that appeared in the floor,

Sigh… Piyot!

[Sigh… Here we go again!]

Piyot sighed and followed after Yuren.

***

The 1st floor of the Green Tower.

Thud. Thud.

“Is it there?!”

As a giant troll, whose upper body was about one size larger than other trolls, glared at Se-jun’s shop and asked,

“Yes! That’s right, Boss.”

“That is the shop!”

Dooly, the sub-boss of the Immortal Gang and a Twin Head Ogre, answered.

Orga, the boss of the Immortal Gang and a Giant Troll, could not meet the tribute payment because of the tower’s 1st floor, and was summoned by the influential figure of the 93rd floor of the tower to be severely scolded.

That was why he came to the 1st floor of the tower to collect the money personally.

“It doesn’t look like much. Let’s wrap this up quickly and go. Wipe them out.”

“Yes! Boss!”

“Guys, clear the path!”

“Yes!”

“Out of the way!”

At the command of Dooly’s right head, the Immortal Gang members drove away the hunters and cleared a path to the shop.

And,

“Argh!”

“What?!”

The hunters were pushed away helplessly.

In an instant, the trolls created a path to the shop,

Thud. Thud.

and Orga, with Dooly in front, slowly followed behind.

At that moment,

Bang!

Thud!

With an explosion, a troll flew through the sky and crashed right in front of Dooly.

“What?!”

“What’s going on?!”

As Dooly hurriedly asked the troll who had fallen to the ground,

“De… Saintess… ran…”

The troll eagerly said something in a voice that was barely audible and then lost consciousness.

“If it’s De… Saintess…”

“Saintess of Destruction Egel?!”

“No way. It can’t be.”

“Right, it makes no sense that the 97th-floor boss of the tower is here.”

As Dooly’s two heads held a conversation,

“Hey… look ahead.”

Orga, looking straight ahead, called Dooly in a terrified voice.

“Yes?”

“Why look ahead…?”

Dooly looked ahead and lost his words.

In front of them, Agni of Hellfire, the boss of the 99th floor of the tower who had transformed into a giant form, and Egel, the Saintess of Destruction and the boss of the 97th floor of the tower, were standing,

and the trolls were kneeling in front of them.

‘Why are the top-floor bosses of the Green Tower coming out here?!’

Orga and Dooly panicked and hurriedly tried to turn around and run away, but

Grr.

before they knew it, Demonic Dog Cerberus, the boss of the 98th floor of the tower, was blocking their path.

“Kneel.”

Thud. Thud.

At Cerberus’s words, Orga and Dooly knelt down faster than anyone else,

“Stamp.”

and Cerberus handed them the contracts that Theo had prepared in advance.

***

[You have hunted 1 slave.]

[Due to the effect of , all stats increase by 1.]

…

..

.

“Puhuhut. The subordinates are doing well, meow! But where is this place, meow?!”

Theo, who was reading the messages, said while looking around.

Clearly, he entered the building with Cuengi, but a completely different place appeared. Furthermore, Cuengi was nowhere to be seen.

“Puhuhut. For now, I should go to Chairman Park, meow!”

Thus, Theo moved to the place where Se-jun’s energy was felt.

“Meow!”

‘I feel a pull from here, meow!’

When he walked along the path and entered the room from which he felt the pull, a jade-colored stone was placed in the middle of the room.

“Puhuhut. It looks good, meow!”

Although it looked like a trap at a glance, Theo grabbed the jade-colored stone without hesitation.

Kugung.

The room shook for a moment.

“What is it, meow?”

Theo tilted his head, left the room, and moved toward Se-jun.

A moment later,

Clank.

Sharp spikes stained with purple liquid shot out from above and below the room Theo had left.

“Meow, meow, meow.”

Unaware that he had almost been in danger just now, Theo hummed a song and ran toward Se-jun.

***

Kkueng?

[Where is this place, yo?]

Cuengi, who had dropped into a strange place just like Theo, looked around.

Kkueng!

[I smell Dad from over there, yo! Great Detective Kkunan found Dad, yo!]

Bang! Bang!

Cuengi broke through the walls and moved in a straight line toward Se-jun.

Clank.

Although traps also appeared on the way,

Kkueng! Kkueng!

[You must not block Great Detective Kkunan’s path, yo! I must go quickly, yo!]

Cuengi smashed all the traps.

Thus, Cuengi moved while solving everything with sheer strength.

At that moment,

Piyot!

Kkuik!

The screams of Piyot and Yuren were heard from afar.

Kkueng?

As Cuengi hurriedly ran toward the sound,

Rumble.

he saw Piyot and Yuren running away to avoid being crushed by a giant stone ball.

Kkueng!

[Get out of the way, yo!]

Cuengi shouted to the two and stretched his forepaw forward.

And,

Bang!

with a loud explosion, the stone ball was crushed into powder. It was Kkueng Ten-Thousand-Step Fist.

Piyot…

[I survived…]

“Lord Cuengi, do you need pocket money?”

When Yuren, who had escaped death, tried to reward Cuengi,

Kkueng!

[Dad said not to receive pocket money from just anyone, yo!]

Cuengi refused Yuren’s money.

“I’m not just anyone…”

Yuren was hurt.

***

‘Where is this place?’

As soon as he opened the door, a strange feeling washed over him, the front turned pitch black, and Se-jun found himself here as if he had teleported.

Step. Step.

Since it was a dead end, Se-jun walked forward for now.

At that moment,

At that moment,

(Se-jun-nim, be careful!)

Baet-baet-i, who was hiding on top of Se-jun’s foot, warned Se-jun and swung his wings at the floor 3 meters ahead.

Then, the floor was pressed down by the wind pressure.

Creak.

Along with the sound of gears turning, giant iron skewers sprouted from the floor.

‘What… what is this?’

‘Did I almost die just now?!’

Seeing the trap, Se-jun’s body froze.

Kkirorong. Kkihihit.

On the contrary, Kkamang-i was sleeping as peacefully as could be.

‘Yes. You might as well sleep.’

In Se-jun’s mind, Kkamang-i was still a baby puppy.

Thinking that there was nothing good in experiencing such a situation, Se-jun completely closed the sling bag.

(Just a moment.)

Baet-baet-i swung his wings to cut the iron skewers and flew forward,

Bang! Bang!

(Whew. It’s okay now!)

and returned after destroying all the traps in front.

Thanks to that, Se-jun was able to move comfortably.

As he continued to move along the hallway,

“Huh? It’s Theo.”

He felt Theo coming this way.

“Let’s rest here for a bit.”

(Yes!)

When Se-jun waited for a moment,

“Chairman Park, I missed you so, so much, meow!”

Theo ran over and hugged Se-jun’s face.

“Yeah. I missed you so, so much too!”

Se-jun welcomed Theo even more warmly than usual.

At that moment,

Guuuung.

Kkuuuung.

Kung.

A vibration rapidly approached the place where Se-jun was.

“What is it?”

Se-jun held Theo’s body with both hands to be ready to defend at any time and assumed a defensive stance.

A moment later.

Bang!

The wall in front of Se-jun shattered.

And,

Kkueng!

[I found Dad, yo!]

Dadada.

Cuengi hurriedly ran toward Se-jun.

“Cuengi!”

Se-jun welcomed Cuengi as if he hadn’t seen him in decades.

Piyot!

[I survived!]

“Lord Theo, I missed you!”

Following behind Cuengi, Piyot and Yuren also appeared.

Thus, the party reunited.

“But where should we go?”

Kkueng!

[Great Detective Kkunan smelled the thief earlier, yo! Just trust Great Detective Kkunan, yo!]

Cuengi shouted confidently while raising his forepaw.

“Puhuhut. No, meow! I felt a strong pull from over there, meow!”

Theo also shouted confidently while raising his forepaw.

Kkueng!

[Cuengi is right, yo!]

“No, meow! The pull of my forepaw has never been wrong, meow!”

The two bickered again.

“Guys, calm down. Since both of you are right. Let’s first go to the place where Theo’s pull is felt.”

Theo’s pull was surely toward the treasure the thief had stolen. Therefore, they could just secure the treasure first and then chase the thief.

“Puhuhut. Follow me, meow!”

Kkueng…

At Se-jun’s words, Theo was emboldened while Cuengi became depressed.

“Great Detective Kkunan, don’t be too sad. Instead, I will give you one five-star stamp.”

Kkuhehehe. Kkueng?!

[Hehehe. Really, yo?!]

“Yeah. Here, take out the paper.”

Kkueng!

[I understand, yo!]

After cheering up Cuengi like that, Se-jun followed Theo’s guidance and moved along the pull.

And,

“Wow…”

they arrived at a giant warehouse.

Jewels were a given, and it was also full of expensive-looking items like weapons and paintings.

“Theo, pack the things you’re pulled to first, and the rest of you, pack the jewels!”

“I understand, meow!”

Kkueng!

Piyot!

“Yes!”

At Se-jun’s instruction, the party members began to pack the jewels,

“Chairman Park, I feel a strong pull inside here, meow!”

Se-jun stood in front of the pile of jewels under Theo’s guidance.

“Here?”

“Yes, meow!”

Chwrrr.

Theo answered and entered the pile of jewels as if diving.

A moment later.

Pop.

Theo’s thick forepaw emerged from the pile of jewels.

When Se-jun pulled Theo’s forepaw, Theo appeared holding a black diamond in his other forepaw.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, it’s this one, meow!”

While dangling with his forepaw held in Se-jun’s hand, Theo confidently held out the black diamond to Se-jun.

[Skill Plunder Stone]

Grab.

Se-jun took the black diamond and examined it closely.

[Skill Plunder Stone]

This was an item made of black diamond.

It could randomly plunder and store one skill possessed by a target.

The stored skill would disappear once used.

It was impossible to plunder skills from a target with a large difference in level unless the target permitted it.

It was impossible to plunder skills that could not be used.

Currently Plundered Skill: None

Use Restriction: Level 100 or higher, all stats 2000 or higher, recognized as the master of Copy, the Replicator

Creator: Copy, the Replicator

Grade: ★

“Plundering skills is possible?”

‘Then if I plunder and store Theo’s or Cuengi’s skill…’

‘Hehehe. Would I also be using Meow Meow Storm Fist and Kkuenghu?’

While Se-jun let out a chuckle as he imagined enemies falling to his skills,

-What? You dare use me? Then first you must pass the test of Copy, the Replicator!

At the same time an arrogant voice resounded in his head, Se-jun lost consciousness.

Kking…

[Please let me sleep peacefully…]

Kkamang-i whined in his sleep, closed his eyes, and entered Se-jun’s mental world.
