Chapter 74. Urs (2)
3.
There were always conditions attached to the bounty.
“If you want to get the bounty, you have to complete the mission.”
All rewards are received after the event is over.
This was a rule that not only adventurers but everyone in Maple World had to follow.
But El Palm said:
“I mean, the bounty. Pay it in advance.”
You haven’t even done anything yet, you just want a bounty.
It was such an absurd statement, and the moment it came out, everyone, including El Palm’s colleagues, looked dumbfounded.
There was one exception.
Clap clap clap!
Ralph, he said, clapping louder than anyone else.
“As expected, boss! I believed in you!”
He expressed his joy.
Everyone was able to quickly come to their senses at the sound of Ralph’s applause and voice.
The first one to come to his senses was Devo.
“No, Boss? How can that make sense? There’s no way Captain Kairin would say okay to that!”
“okay.”
The next one to come to his senses was Captain Kairin.
“Look at that! How could… … Huh?”
“I accept that offer.”
She nodded immediately at El Palm’s suggestion.
“If it helps increase survival rates.”
Because he knew full well that El Palm wasn’t just making a suggestion because he was blinded by treasure.
“If it fails anyway, it’s something you can just take back.”
Also, this wasn’t a losing business.
“If it’s successful, it’s a business I’m happy to leave behind.”
Whether it was a success or a failure, it was a business that Captain Kairin would benefit from in one way or another.
That’s why.
“I’ll send you straight to Treasure Island.”
Captain Kairin immediately sent the El Palm Party to his treasure island.
There were no particular restrictions during the process.
Even though they were usually required to cover their eyes and ears, El Palm Party was guided along just as they were.
And I could reach it right away.
“This is Captain Kairin’s Treasure Island!”
To the place that all adventurers in the world want to go.
Even they had no restrictions.
“As much as you want.”
You could take whatever treasure was there.
“But only if you wear it,” of course, with a condition attached. Otherwise, El Palm Party would take it all.
Ultimately, it means choosing something you can use.
At that point, everyone looked at Ralph, expecting him to run out and get his items as fancy as possible.
“What do you see?”
“Huh? No, I was wondering when it would pop out.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but please don’t talk to me for a while. I need to appraise the item.”
“emotion?”
“Shouldn’t I find something I can write about?”
But everyone looked surprised at what he said next.
“Aren’t you just sweeping everything away?”
“What are you talking about? Shouldn’t we get something that we can use first? Why are we carrying around something that we can’t use?”
Everyone looked dumbfounded at the answer that was so common sense.
Who would have thought those words would come out of Ralph’s mouth?
“No, there are other things that make money too.”
“Money has to be used to live.”
But the moment they heard the words that followed, everyone realized.
Even Ralph, who is crazy about money, said that this mission was on a whole other level.
And that was right.
From the beginning, this was an exploration based on sacrifice.
Dying is a natural thing.
In that situation, would you be greedy for something else? That’s impossible.
That’s why, the moment they heard those words, everyone looked at Treasure Island with a different expression.
Because I had to find things here that could increase my power.
The same was true for El Palm.
He thought he would find something helpful here.

El Palm began his exploration.
I looked at the items one by one.
‘There is nothing more satisfying than what you think.’
However, there didn’t seem to be a single item that would be of much help to El Palm.
There was no choice.
Because the items El Palm had were more valuable than Captain Kairin’s Treasure Island.
It was no exaggeration.
Even just Hyperion’s helmet was worth more than dozens of legendary items.
‘Is it as expected?’
And El Palm was as expected.
That was the moment.
Buzz buzz!
There was a commotion inside El Palm’s robe, and soon something popped out.
Qyuu!
It was Mano.
Qyuu!
That mano reacted more violently than ever.
El Palm’s eyes narrowed at that fact.
There were only a handful of times when he had reacted this violently, and each time, Mano discovered something incredible.
“good.”
Qyuu!
So El Palm put Mano on the ground, and Mano immediately started running with a shout full of joy.
El Palm followed suit.
Qyuu!
And then he looked at the item Mano had found.
The moment he saw it, El Palm’s expression hardened.
‘This?’
Because it was an item I knew.
‘Ran’s Ring?’
Because that was an item that El Palm had before he returned to the past.
That’s why.
‘why?’
El Palm felt more confused than ever.
‘Why is this?’
Lan’s Ring, it was a legendary ring left by the wizard Lan to El Palm.
Because it was a ring with teleportation magic.
Teleportation was a very hard skill to obtain, and it was also an item whose utility was indescribable.
Thanks to him, I have saved countless lives, and he is of legendary rank, so there is no shortage of him.
Qyuu!
‘Why does Agate react so strongly to this ring?’
But it wasn’t an item that would make Mano react more violently than when he discovered something like Hyperion’s helmet.
Teleportation magic was nothing compared to Hyperion’s helmet.
‘One thing is certain.’
Here El Palm no longer raised any questions.
‘Mano is never wrong.’
What we have to believe here is not El Palm’s memory, but Manora.
That’s why El Palm put on the ring.
‘Right.’
Then I felt it.
‘This ring was Fried’s legacy.’
Qyuu!
Why did Mano react so violently to this ring?
I realized at the same time.
‘Yeah, that’s it.’
All situations.
‘It was you, Fried.’
At that moment, El Palm no longer hesitated.
‘Now all I have to do is catch the horntail.’
4.
It was a day.
El Palm Party spent a day on Captain Kairin’s Treasure Island looking for items that would suit them.
And when that day passed, the state of the El Palm Party leaving Treasure Island was not much different from before they came in.
Most people only took three or four items.
“There’s nothing more useful than I thought.”
Because the condition of the items at the El Palm Party was so excellent.
It was much more difficult to find non-legendary items among the items I had right away.
That was why.
“This is a little bit lacking.”
El Palm Party’s expression was filled with anxiety.
“El Palm, this is a gift.”
So El Palmar returned to the Nautilus, and a gift arrived for them.
“Crown Prince Kashan sent you.”
What a tremendous gift.
“The boots and bracelets of Hercules.”
Everyone looked surprised at the gift.
‘Even if he is the Crown Prince of Kashan, is this something so enormous?’
The value of an item with the name Hercules in it would be too high to be obtained with mesos.
It’s amazing how you can get it, but you just give it to me?
The wealth of the Ariant Palace is simply amazing.
“Divo.”
“Yes, boss.”
“I’ll thank the Crown Prince later.”
“yes?”
El Palm gave that gift to Divo, who looked astonished at the fact.
Are you just giving me something this huge?
Of course, it wasn’t a shock of joy.
The same was true for the other colleagues. No one gave Divo an envious look.
Okay, I got it.
‘Oh, he’s dead.’
Giving this means that Devo will have to suffer that much.
Anyway, I’m ready.
Make all the preparations you can.
Now there’s only one thing left.
“I will conquer Mystic Gate.”
Captain Kairin’s subordinates immediately guided the El Palm Party.
To the Nautilus’ powerhouse, the most important place of all.
And when we got there, we were able to meet El Palm Party.
Captain Kairin.
“I won’t tell you to come back alive.”
She didn’t say anything nice to El Palm Party as they were leaving.
Because she was the captain of the pirates aboard the Kairin, the Nautilus.
It was not befitting of a captain to speak weakly or to make vague prayers.
“Miner.”
Instead of saying such things, she approached her disciple, Miner.
Swish!
Then he put the hat he had written on her head and said.
“Sweep them all away like pirates of the Nautilus. Before anyone else, and more than anyone else.”
At those words, Miner smiled and said,
“Of course, who are you? Are you my disciple?”
That was the end of the conversation.
Everyone stood in front of the Mystic Gate, and immediately the portal activated.
Woohoo!
A portal of blue light.
And the El Palm Party went over to that portal.
5.
Adventurers say.
“Sometimes you have to take risks even if you know you’ll die.”
Although avoiding death is an adventurer’s ability, there will definitely come a moment when it cannot be avoided.
“That’s when the true value of an adventurer is revealed.”
Being able to unleash your power at that moment, that is the ability of a true adventurer.
That was the case with the El Palm Party.
They knew.
‘More likely to die.’
A stage for 60 adventurers from the 7th Circle, but a party consisting of only 4 people from the 7th Circle and 1 person from the 6th Circle is trying to conquer that stage?
If you think the chances of success are high here, that is a wrong action and judgment.
Adventurers had to be cool-headed.
It was important to realize that vague hopes were not enough, and El Palm knew that better than anyone.
El Palmar Party accepted death.
‘We are making the way.’
And they knew better than anyone else the meaning of their deaths and the importance of the role given to them.
‘What kind of stage will it be?’
That’s why I was nervous.
‘den?
Because I personally experienced that starting from the Indigo level, a completely different stage than before appears.
Because it could have resulted in a ridiculous scene.
‘Or maybe in the sea?’
A stage was revealed in front of the El Palm party.
slam!
‘huh?’
A beautifully stretched beach, with emerald waves gently lapping at the shore.
Everyone at El Palm Party was dumbfounded by the sight.
‘Is this the Mystic Gate?’
‘Not a resort?’
It is too beautiful and peaceful to be called a hunting ground.
Of course, El Palm was different.
“Phew.”
He let out a short sigh of relief.
In a situation where so much has already changed from what El Palm knew, it wouldn’t be strange if the stage of the Mystic Gate where Ursus appears also changed.
‘Nothing has changed inside.’
Fortunately, this scenery was exactly the same as what El Palm had heard from the Ursus expedition.
That is, the stage has not changed.
“Hey boss, you’re not in the wrong place, are you? No matter how I look at it, this place looks like a resort.”
“This seems even better than Gold Beach.”
“Hey, Kiri, how do you know that? Isn’t Gold Beach the best resort run by Gold Rich? Isn’t it like anyone can’t go there? Have you been there?”
“I used to go there often when I was young.”
“Often? Wow, how rich are you?”
“Hey, Divo, Kiri! Enough with the small talk, that’s not what’s important right now, is it? Boss, did you come in properly?”
So El Palm answered his colleague’s question.
“It’s something you can check.”
Soon El Palm Party entered the forest behind the beach and began their adventure.
I learned a few things from that adventure.
This is a pretty big island.
Another thing is that there aren’t any monsters.
“There is an exit.”
And it is certain that it is the Mystic Gate.
At that point, everyone was left wondering.
“No, how can there be no monsters? Isn’t there something wrong with this?”
Because I’ve never heard of a Mystic Gate without monsters.
El Palm, on the other hand, was different.
‘It’s just as I heard.’
He knew this fact.
‘There’s nothing up to the 5th floor.’
I even knew that these islands appeared in succession up to the 5th floor.
But there was nothing strange.
‘Urus is the only monster on the 6th floor.’
The difficulty of Mystic Gate is determined by the environment and monsters that exist from the 1st to the 6th floor.
In other words, the difficulty of this Mystic Gate was solely for hunting one Ursus.
‘And that’s just the way it is.’
In other words, Ursus was such a strong being.
That’s why.
“Boss, what should we do? Should we move on?”
“No, stay here.”
“Yes? Are there any left?”
What El Palm didn’t pass on.
“We don’t believe there are any threats here, so we train here.”
Now it needed to be pickled.
“Training?”
Everyone became tense at those words.
‘Are we going to play tag with the boss again?’
When El Palm talks about training, he is not exaggerating; he has experienced hell several times.
Of course, that training always had sweet results.
Because everyone said.
“Yes, let’s give it a try. So what should I do?”
El Palm said of that determination.
“Each person can do as they wish.”
An answer that no one expected.
