Regressor's Instructions Manual Episode 1082
Rohen Continent (1)
[Ki Young has entered the tutorial 'Beginner's Trial.]
Upon opening my eyes, all I could see was a dense forest. It was a dark space with no sunlight coming in, but I couldn't identify the things in front of me well enough.
Unlike the continent's tutorial, this seemed like a map with a vast forest instead of the tutorial that looked like a dungeon.
Understanding the situation was quick. I glanced around for survival supplies, but it seemed like everything had already been looted, even proper weapons weren't visible.
Damn it.
Occasionally, the sounds of animals crying could be heard, and the rustling of bushes.
Contrary to expectations of starting with Jung Ha Yan and Han So Ra, their figures were nowhere to be seen.
When screams from someone in the distance reached my ears, my body instinctively began to cower.
I had already checked my body once, but all the abilities cultivated on the continent were locked.
Neither the physical specs achieved through strenuous efforts nor the physique capable of displaying killer swordsmanship were prepared. [[Did you any of that to begin with?]]]
Why is everything different? Damn it, the situation of being unprepared is beyond confusion and nearing anger, reminiscent of when I first landed on the continent with nothing.
Wasn't this clearly not what we agreed upon initially?
'We were promised solid support...'
'We was promised that there would be solid support.... Something must have happened.'
"..."
'If an incident occurs, shouldn't they be resolved by now?'
It's been about a minute already, and it's the time when feedback should have been received.
[Let me explain about the tutorial for beginners...]
While I was thinking nonsense like this, it was the inevitable moment to open my mouth.
[What's going on right now? This bastard.]
[Rohen Continent's tutorial is... huh? What, what is it?]
[Can't you hear me?]
[This... What quest should Lee Ki Young... huh? What's this? Senior! Can you come over for a moment? Something is strange... A new member just entered. Is there a glitch?]
[Senior or whatever, what's your name!]
[Huh... yes?]
[Are you the tutorial supervisor? What's your position and name?]
[Yes?]
[Damn it. Can't you hear me? I asked multiple times about your position and name, but you're not hearing me. Damn it. What kind of crap is this, handling things like this? Didn't you hear from above? Didn't you report to Chanelia Hermes? The more I think about it, the more ridiculous it becomes. Handling the damn situation like this? Rohen Continent damn it... How should we educate the supervisors...]
[Uh... I... I... I'm sorry. I... I recently entered, so I'm not sure what's going on right now...]
[I've said it three times. Your position and name.]
[Tutorial supervisor, um... lower-ranking manager Garvi... Hic.]
[Right now, immediately contact above to find out what's going on and report back. No, before that, open the communication channel and check if there's any direct communication received. Wasn't the tutorial started a few days ago? Shouldn't it be considered abnormal to summon a new person now and find something strange?]
[The mission assigned to me is to guide those who enter the tutorial... I, I'm just... following the manual...]
[The communication Channel.]
[Wai... Wait a moment. Ah... Ah! Here! Here it is.Lee Ki Young.]
"..."
Yes... According to the communication channel, it seems like a problem has occurred...
[I also know there's a problem, but what exactly is the problem?]
[They're currently investigating the problem from above. Fir-First of all, offering infinite gratitude and honor to the God of Sacrifice and Resurrection..Who came to Rohen Continent for their sacrifice and contribution... Regarding the current situation and conditions of Rohen Continent...]
[Getting to the point.]
[Yes! According to what's written, during the process of entering the Rohen Continent by the Gods of Sacrifice and Resurrection, an unknown error occurred. Clearly, after fulfilling all the conditions demanded by the Gods of Sacrifice and Resurrection, the summoning process was carried out, but... It seems the system has malfunctioned.]
'Damn it.'
[They've requested to convey that it's definitely not a mistake of the Rohen Continent.]
[...]
[We're currently in the process of continuing to take measures. Oh, God of Sacrifice and Resurrection. Of course, even now, the system...]
The voice of the lower-level manager who keeps babbling continues to echo, but the content doesn't register in my mind.
'I should have thought about it, shouldn't I?'
It's because I didn't assume that the system would intervene literally.
No, it's not like I didn't consider it.
We couldn't help but be vigilant about the system's intentions during the process of entering the Rohen Continent.
The system is governed by the immutable laws of dimensions. It's a basic law like the fact that those above manage dimensions through faith, demons can't use their power outside their own domains, and basic elements sustain the continent.
Strictly speaking, whether the residents of the Rohen Continent suffer or whether the Rohen Continent is about to collapse are not the system's concerns.
Its concerns are strictly whether something will disrupt the order of dimensions, whether something will violate the laws of dimensions.
In other words, the three Demon Lords legally entered the Rohen Continent through proper procedures. They were prepared to bear the penalties given to them.
'I don't know exactly through what channels the Grand Lords established themselves here.'
It's appropriate to judge that they obtained the system's approval through their accumulated know-how.
On the other hand...
This side is all trial and error. It's not just a matter of simply summoning gods from other continents to the current continent, but summoning them through the tutorial system.
It was unprecedented and exceptional.
Moreover, the fact that gods like Kim Hyun-sung, Jung Ha-yan, Cha Hee-ra, and Lee Ki-young are alive is also an unusual situation.
Even though I came after agreeing with Rohen officials to nerf more than originally planned.
'Even so, damn it, it's not even close to an Avatar situation, and they've nerfed the stats by 99 percent? Seriously? I thought it would be at most 40 percent... Damn it. What are we supposed to do with this?'
It seems like the system judged that my, Jung Ha-yan's, and Han So-ra's entry into the Rohen Continent would disrupt the balance of dimensions.
That's why we didn't bring all the guild members in anticipation of such a situation..So I brought just Ha-yan?
Ha-yan must have been the issue.
If I had to give an example, it would be like getting caught in immigration screening. The system deemed Ha-yan as some sort of cheat key, and it determined that many things needed to be cut off for her to enter.
'First, it separated Hayan from Lee Ki-young.'
Balancing the stats of the entry personnel was a given, but it seems they judged that it was necessary to completely cut off limbs for balance.
'I've been too lax.'
A genius who not only mastered magic but also became a god of magic herself.
Her combat abilities are beyond doubt, and she also has utility.
In fact, considering that there are virtually no limits to her magic, it wouldn't be unreasonable to think of her as a disruptor of the ecosystem of the Rohen Continent.
Given that the Rohen Continent fundamentally utilizes magic, the system may have reacted sensitively to Jung Ha-yan.
Although I thought about quickly preparing the foundation for other guild members to come over and expanding our influence to include Jung Ha-yan in our lineup...
Was it Deok-goo or Hye-jin who was the right choice?
[Oh, God of Sacrifice and Resurrection.]
'No, Hye-jin could have been risky too. She seems to be growing slowly. Should I have brought Yoo-ah-yeong or Chang-ryul along?'
[Oh, God of Sacrifice and Resurrection.]
First of all, bringing So-ra was an inevitable choice. With the overlords running rampantly, it was natural to bring a warlock in the lineup.
[Oh, God of Sacrifice and Resurrection!]
[Yes?]
[Monsters are approaching nearby!]
When I reflexively turned my head towards the direction of the sound, I noticed a monster walking on four legs.
"Krrraaahhh!"
"You should've told me sooner! Damn it!"
[Sorry.]
"Damn it!"
Throwing the nearby stone immediately was a matter of course.
"I can win this.
Even though it's a tutorial dungeon, it's a difficulty level that ordinary people can easily overcome.
Even though my stats have been nerfed, monsters of ordinary grades have never been a match for Ki-young.
At least in the tutorial dungeon.
"Krrraaahhh!"
"Damn it! Requesting support! Requesting support! Do something, anything!"
[Yes? Yes? Well... For now, the support we can provide on our side... Um... Hidden pieces in the tutorial dungeon within the range allowed by the system... Oh... This won't work. Um, for hidden pieces, you have to obtain them directly according to the manual...]
"Hey! Hey!"
[Just... Just a moment... Ah! I have it! Although it feels a bit urgent, here's the Holy Sword...]
"Why are you giving me the Holy Sword?"
[Ah! Well...]
"Just do something! Anything!"
I managed to push away the neck of the quadrupedal monster that was gnawing annoyingly at me, but I couldn't push away its claws.
As it struggled, its claws dug into my body.
Despite feeling pain for the first time in a long time, what was more unjust was being dominated by such a trivial creature.
If I had at least a sword, I could use my swordsmanship.
[[[T/N: What swordsmanship are you talking about, dude, you lack stats!!]]]
Even if I had a sword, wouldn't I have torn apart this creature's limbs with my swordsmanship?
"Ugh... Aah! Aack! Damn it! I'm dying! I'm dying! Ugh! I'm dying!"
"Krrrr... Kkrrrraaaah!"
"Pull out your claws! You bastard! Pull them out! Agh... Urgh..."
[Sen... Senior!]
"Who's your senior?"
[Oh, God of Sacrifice and Resurrection! Permission has been granted.]
"Aack!"
[Permission granted!]
"Whatever!"
It was right at that moment when a sudden voice was heard.
[The guardian of the sky seems interested in you.]
"Huh?"
[A gentle hand touching leather wants to help you.]
[The lowest abyss of the abyss wants to save you.]
[...]
[.....]
[...]
Those who seem to have caught second-year syndrome continue to send messages that even those with second-year syndrome-like nicknames cannot understand.
And then.
[The Sunset sword god....]
Huh?
[Watches over you.]
[The Sunset-colored sword god is frustrated.]
[The Sunset-colored sword god apologizes to you.]
[The Sunset-colored sword god sheds tears.]
[The Sunset-colored sword god is angry.]
[The Sunset-colored sword god cries out at your wounds.]
[The Sunset-colored sword god seeks to destroy your enemies.]
[The Sunset-colored sword god....]
[The Sunset-colored sword god....]
[The Sunset-colored sword god....]
[...]
[...]
[...]
[The Sunset-colored sword god wishes to choose you.]
[Will you select the Sunset-colored sword god as your GENIUS?]
[YES / NO]
[The Sunset-colored sword god sponsors 10,000 coins.]
[Will you choose the Sunset-colored sword god as your GENIUS?]
[YES / NO]
[The Sunset-colored sword god sponsors 50,000 coins.]
[Will you choose the Sunset-colored sword god as your GENIUS?]
[YES / NO]
[The Sunset-colored sword god sponsors 100,000 coins.]
[Will you choose the Sunset-colored sword god as your GENIUS?]
[YES / NO]
----
From this chapter onwards, If you see anything like "Dusk-colored sword god" note that it is the same as "Sunset-colored sword god ". I can't bother editing it every time.
Also, the rohen arc is 200 chapters long 😭.
