TWKH Ch 11

The resting place 1caeb47f0b of the spirits b2a0a4b48c was a dungeon 1b0639066d with a very 7e248ecbe9 dreamy atmosphere, where fa5e3ee95a purple flowers glowing 9eeb534113 with light flew 7a6bff09b8 around, and the 6a560749f4 sound of music 3fe5fc002f mixed with humming fa337b05cf could be heard. Unlike the faint 835551eafe presence of the 60d5c4c983 game, the BGM d546249469 of the resting c7e8dbdf27 place of the 417c8cd2d7 spirits was very 76b3dfac11 famous, and it 447fcaa063 had even been 1f234c1568 used as background bcc14d2dc5 music for an 3cf2b630ec ion drink commercial ddf0923b9c on TV. Jehyun hummed f70505730a along with 98b622d3ee the familiar 612bf15b29 tune as e79c9885ff he stopped bd37552fdc his character.384f5d59a6ce9da5

The owner of b5e2b32f37 the resting place 9461257a91 of the spirits abd903a693 was the great 899de835d5 spirit Anakia, who d61fbe4484 had lost her a8863c2beb mind in anger c6e82e34a7 over the invasion 2e7fad78f0 of raptors. Anakia was the 8899564a86 parent and master 8090a6241f of thousands of 06955260db spirits, and her 20414dfadb personality was somewhat 61efbfc951 dirty.48081387a6b60b80

If you left 88428bb283 the protected area, 9a627bb344 the bombardment of bca4e40ce2 spirits would begin 2442239a5d immediately, so Jehyun 8966868fdd stood still and f4867cdd9d waited until all a5805715b5 his party members b7734b77b5 gathered, then activated eb05d65c3e a buff and d755502f1b entered together.23f1f6bbd7e83d16

“I hate the crazed Anakia! I’ll kill them all!”f7b4f1808f8d011c

Anakia wasn’t a raptor 38b015daea capable of over-saturation, so 0722f8b935 she was even angrier 858ca4fe29 due to the over-saturated a06cb913ea raptor legion commanders. With her sharp 2c0a8af77c voice ringing in 4a303cb783 his ears, Jehyun 91fc4f363a quickly entered the 3366c4c07e options menu and b93319c3d3 lowered the NPC 4a17f4abb4 voice.e13a6af3c98eab9b

But as 35c3c35c1a the first eae2b2f00f clear party 729348c289 moved forward, 9a612f0f80 Anakia’s monologue 00bd7a35dc appeared on f7c38246ce the screen, f86dee25a2 and the ce34d87ad4 enraged spirits 661450bc18 began to 1323848699 swarm toward 8d2437bb2b the party cbf4292806 members.03878845471f0482

Anakia’s creations, the enraged 0d16f44164 spirits, were giant moths 2b9c67c8a8 with bodies resembling humans. Where the human 26d65647d4 eyes should have 0e81b50539 been, there were 151d54f568 large, shiny, round 1c46ff22c4 eyes, and their 5e273351d0 bodies were covered d2925ffc83 in messy pink e41dfa0d47 fur. Additionally, they had objectively f513296444 disgusting wings on their 92e1d4343f backs.b1772fde18a4d30f

People called these enraged spirits “Tinkerbell,” a term not for the fairy from Peter Pan, but for a moth the size of an adult palm found deep in the mountains.be74f57dbc6e728c

However, to Jehyun, the 1516fa4b3e enraged spirits just seemed 02414b3c12 cute. They were 4333246e9d fluffy and 177e10ed70 pink, almost f05fdefb4b like dyed 9171d9821d puppies.229b8a9fab00cc8f

However, that sentiment 40b9adadd6 quickly faded. What seemed tolerable in 6531648f7c the saturated dungeon turned 863ea6d4c3 into horrific forms as 8dcab354d6 they gathered together in cb028cd7b6 over-saturation and transformed into 501bd42504 new monsters.d12cd0c2d343aa75

With a cabf0bd0dc sudden cutscene, 637f3d12a7 the monsters 30ef24324a gathered in fafad1ae2e front of dcb6aee75a the users. The fur on the d76eaae9d5 enraged spirits grew long, ee2901af77 and they wrapped around 698c331826 themselves like cocoons.568a98003406b0e5

The resting place of e3605f12e8 the spirits was a 6b6c6c1f15 dungeon connected to the 33ebb0433f main quest.f50b9d7948df9c38

As the surrounding land gradually dried up due to the enraged Anakia, the great mage Artlaksha from Caplet stepped up with the heroes in response to the shocking event of the great spirit’s corruption.cbbee139418f6dae

Artlaksha said that if the spirit stone held by Anakia could be purified, Anakia could return to normal. So, the heroes infiltrated the resting place of the spirits to steal Anakia’s spirit stone, which was part of Caplet’s infamous main quest, “Infiltration.”a6f8dd6282c093fd

During the infiltration quest, users took “Artlaksha’s special transformation potion.” Drinking it would turn them into an “enraged spirit,” allowing them to sneak into Anakia’s lair.0557453d4824acf7

However, as 9c6c084cb2 soon as 88fc874578 they began 586513f156 the strategy 24a7db84fe against the 7afdbb1fa8 frenzied spirit, ea53645ec0 the synesthesia 032cd4e448 debuff transformed 3d8e7f8727 all users 6676ac0df0 into enraged 83b3b87080 spirits.

“Really? 64? Not 65?”0db712b316fc9740

64 or 63 5442b3c249 was an ambiguous 1c2ff8baaf number. If it had dropped ac857926b8 in increments of 5 ad285cbb65 or 10, it would b9c6256931 have made sense, but ef395cfee1 a number like that 9f6b3908b9 seemed too vague for 77f5b74100 a pattern.

Jehyun said that as 8564abf0f7 he moved his character 31ce276ef5 inward. A narrow 95fab16a8a gap appeared 5fd81673ad between two 962b97d9fd walls, and 3696da2a40 as he 81ab325228 passed through 4fb376d28f it, he e23c65561e came to 8886291c43 a nest-like e544ac1b24 area with 04151158b6 a stream c456d24e64 of water.

Those damn guardians. As the 30f1145bd6 forgotten memory dde792f9db returned, Jehyun 06e62d5bb1 realized why 81167f9893 the stealth d08899fc2e quest had 29ddc61df7 been so 3f6f40c05b difficult.13f29ab7619e66d9

A user transformed into a spirit must break through the wall and infiltrate the nest. They need to pass through the nest without touching the eggs and approach Anakia’s lair, but that was incredibly difficult. It was due to the next map, the corridor.9bd502bd4d99b2a5

The place d721623632 was overflowing cf1cb9c6d0 with other 46d13ff22b spirits, aside ec777e84e3 from the 775d9e9f43 user.

[Party] Habaek: Passed the nest.

When infiltrating, one had to move carefully in the nest to avoid touching the densely packed eggs and follow the same rules as the other spirits while navigating the corridors. Anakia’s eyes were embedded throughout the walls, leaving no room to relax.2a59cb44ccb5b6e3

After passing through the corridors, they reached the sanctuary. At its center, Anakia lay sleeping, and behind it rested the Spirit Stone. The players’ objective was to steal the Spirit Stone and escape.f03ac6f86df90a02

[Party] Habaek: Reached the sanctuary.

However, there was a major problem—the main quest’s stealth section ended the moment anyone touched the Spirit Stone. The instant they laid hands on it, Anakia would detect them, and the quest would transition to clearing the Spirit’s Sanctuary.4b707fd8d24c5b0b

Jehyun couldn’t grasp the situation and kept his eyes on Habaek. It seemed stealth was indeed the solution, as there was one notable difference: even after a minute had passed, the shared sensory debuff hadn’t been reapplied. It seemed like anyone under the debuff only needed to attempt stealth for the effect to dissipate.41b9c5f1acc67938
