Chapter 443: Crack Museum Remodeling (1)

[You have entered the unrated dungeon Crack Museum.]

[No population limit had been detected.]

[Unrated forced quest is activated.]

[Quest: Museum Tour (0/1)]

Honestly, that was all my hard work down the drain.

‘Fuck… pig bastard. You ran away without fixing this situation at all.’

Actually, I didn’t have the time to worry about him. As soon as I got up in the morning, I had to run wildly into the museum.

The contemptuous gazes of the four women were enough to make me feel daunted.

I wanted to clear up the misunderstanding from yesterday, but I couldn’t even do that. It was because I felt them consciously avoiding me as if they saw me like a dirty insect.

I didn’t know if Lee Cheol-woo and Kim Daegun had heard the news, but when I saw them approaching casually, it felt like they either didn’t believe it or they didn’t hear about it.

They might have also thought it didn’t really matter, but from my perspective, it felt like they didn’t know about it yet.

The more they treated me kindly, the more contemptuous their gazes became. I wanted to start things in a good mood, but I didn’t think it would go so smoothly.

‘That’s not what happened… I’m Light Kiyeon, not Bitch Kiyeon…’

I kept muttering this inside, but it felt like an empty echo. In that sense, entering the museum was a good breakthrough. Everyone belonging to the party had been distracted by the new environment.

It was a familiar status window and a familiar background. However, it felt subtly different.

That was only natural. The Crack Museum, an unrated dungeon, had been reborn as a new place in such a way that it had become completely familiar to commoners.

One of the first things I noticed was that it finally had a truly museum-like appearance, unlike before when it had looked dull.

The second was that the population limit had been removed. It felt like there were more than hundreds of parties gathered in the large space.

Considering our party started in another room, I thought more people were in the museum. It was also true that I thought we would start the battle immediately.

However, Max, who felt proud of the Crack Museum, didn’t stick to that format. Since it was his hobby to show off how great the collection inside was, the battle only began after that display.

It was just as I heard from Pak Sergei and Argirmo.

The parties without prior information about it looked startled, but most seemed familiar as if they knew it. Rumors had already been spread about the inside of the large cave.

Lee Cheol-woo spoke to me as soon as I started to appreciate the sight.

“This is amazing. It’s definitely… really great.”

“Yes. I feel that way too. Honestly, I didn’t think I would see such a sight.”

‘I did put in a lot of effort.’

Items and monsters were all displayed in the stylish exhibition hall. In a place where people gathered, the exhibition was decorated so exquisitely that it could be called the main attraction.

The four members, including Kook Minji, were also busy exploring the museum feverously.

For a moment, it seemed that yesterday’s events had all been forgotten.

It was then that the eyes of all the party members who were observing the museum focused on one place.

-Welcome to the Crack Museum, adventurers. I’m Max, the dungeon manager.

The voice came from somewhere not far away. As I turned my head naturally, I finally saw my son after a long time.

[Checking the information of the dungeon manager Max.]

[The legendary-grade attribute, the Mind’s Eyes, is reading the dungeon manager’s hologram.]

[Manager Max’s hologram]

[It is an agglomerate of magic power created by manager Max. Since it is a virtual image without a substance, the status window and information window can’t be checked. Limited access to information in the museum.]

‘This is also the same.’

This was but a dummy, but it was still nice to see him.

I remembered him crying with Tol To-ri, not wanting me to leave. He looked so stern, so in a way, it felt very cute.

-I see that many adventurers came to visit us today as well. Here are a few things you should be aware of, along with some precautions before your museum exploration begins. The exploration you so desire takes place after a tour of the museum with this general knowledge. After viewing the exhibits, you will be scattered per party to experience the museum yourself, so please be aware of losing party members whilst looking around.

-Ah! As a reference, I will tell you in advance, but you will get a penalty if you touch the exhibition hall carelessly. For some items, we are taking tough measures such as exit measures, so please be careful.

“Yes.”

What a good host. Although he was a museum manager, he looked like the perfect guide.

Unlike the former Max, who was forced to pretend to be stern, he had a little cuteness with him.

-Before giving a full explanation, we need to find out about our museum’s history, right? The Crack Museum is an even older place than you can imagine. It is a place created by the Crack Guardians to seal the crack and to remember it. For a long, innumerable time, the Crack Guardians have locked themselves in this place and focused solely on sealing it. All items or creatures managed by the Crack Museum have come through the crack. Of course, some things had come in since then, items made by the museum and chimeras, but the Crack Museum’s basic characteristics were this.

“It’s uncanny.”

-The Crack Guardians have dedicated their all to sealing the crack. However, they have always worried about the balance or invisible threats ever since. That’s why they said that we should always be alert about cracks and why they created this museum. That’s also why most of the rewards of exploring the museum are made up of weapons called treasures.

Everyone was looking around, amazed. They probably couldn’t help but look like that.

Most of the people who lived on the continent wouldn’t even know what a crack was. The fact that the Crack Guardians protected the continent far longer than I could count without releasing anything into the world was quite a feat.

To them, everything here would be amazing.

Of course, since I had come there more than once, I, a level 4 manager of the Crack Museum, knew about it all. I wasn’t that surprised.

However, when a new structure appeared, my jaw naturally dropped open.

-Could you look to your left for a moment? Museum explorers, I’m a bit embarrassed, but I want you all to meet my mother and father, who gave me my existence.

‘Why am I there?’

Metel the Crack Guardian and I were close to each other, crossing our arms together. And even…

‘Why is the Guardian Metel pregnant?’

My jaw dropped.

“Isn’t that the Honorary Cardinal?”

“It must be someone who looks like him. He said that that happened at a time longer than they could count… The outfit and style are completely different.”

“Is it?”

“He said it was a Crack Guardian. He must be a person who resembles him.”

-Although they don’t exist now.

‘Do not kill me at your leisure, son.’

-They are alive in my heart.

-Guardian Metel, my mother and father did their best to develop and manage the Crack Museum. If it weren’t for them, the Crack Museum and I wouldn’t exist. Of course, even the current continent would’ve ceased to exist.

I felt so disconcerted that I couldn’t help but laugh.

In particular, the pregnant Guardian Metel was the best. The statue in my shape began to move slowly and then began to stroke her belly. He even kissed it.

Bringing his ears to the belly made him look extremely devoted to Metel.

‘It’s a golem.’

The way those sculptures exchanged lovely eyes with each other made me feel like there was real affection between them.

‘Max… who told you to make something like this. Who… asked for a soul wedding… Max! Dad is a person too! A person!’

Even if I had never touched her hand, I had somehow made Metel pregnant.

All I ever did was look at her face once.

If Jung Hayan were looking at that, she would chant a spell out of the blue to destroy the statue.

Although I felt disconcerted, I also felt somehow bitter. It was because I could understand why my son made it.

‘I’ll have to hug him after this is over.’

I pledged to have some more father and son time with him.

Looking at Max’s dummy, he looked embarrassed due to his blush. I thought he would be actually ashamed too.

‘I’m sorry that I’ve been a horrible father…’

-Well, shall we move on? The items next to you are legendary-grade items. There is a lot of time, so please take a look slowly. Once again, for caution’s sake, all items on display are protected by the system. Please be mindful of your own actions so as not to engage in dishonest behavior.

“Wow.”

“Look at this. This… Cheol-woo!”

“Kiyeon, come here. There are staffs like this too.”

“Oh, yes.”

‘I’ve already seen everything, Cheol-woo. So, deal with the guys talking to you.’

“It is a legendary-grade staff. It really has a legendary-grade item. It’s also listed in the museum catalog.”

-Legendary-grade items have a very low probability of being looted in heroic-grade dungeons and a low probability in legendary-grade dungeons. Heroic-grade items can be looted with a low probability in rare-grade dungeons and with normal probability in dungeons of the same grade. Additionally, there are also mass-produced heroic-grade items sold on the market, so please keep that in mind.

“Look at this! It’s a mythic-grade hammer. Daegun, isn’t this something that can’t be priced?”

“Kiyeon, take a look at these robes here. It’s an item that appears in Heroic-grade difficulty, but it seems to have a pretty good chance of dropping.”

‘The same goes for you. Kim Daegun, you bastard.’

-These are legendary-grade monsters. We also have three mythic-grade creatures, but please understand that except for the mythic-grade monster you are seeing, it is difficult to find the two species as they currently require extreme attention.

‘It’s been a while since I saw this one too…’

Even though I saw it before, I couldn’t get used to it.

It was a monster with green skin sitting in a chair made of weapons. It had huge horns, a huge tail, and seven weapons floating around.

It was exactly the way I saw it last time.

The humans surrounding it were all swallowing hard. They must be thinking the same thing I did when I first saw it.

‘How do we beat that…?’

It was an overwhelming existence. This was a monster that ordinary human common sense couldn’t seem to understand.

That monster wasn’t even genuine, but a well-made counterfeit.

Max smiled as if he had got in a better mood when he saw them murmuring.

-You probably can’t deal with mythic-grade creatures. Ahem. There was a little accident last time… Originally, mythic-grade should also be included in your expedition, but um… thank you for your understanding.

With the authority of the museum’s level 4 manager, I had completely sealed them. Those kinds of creatures shouldn’t appear in the world.

Come to think of it, when I came last time, I couldn’t see that green monster with my Mind’s Eyes.

‘Didn’t it say it didn’t have the level to do that? I think it will work now…’

My Mind’s Eyes had grown, and my class had already been rated as a semi-mythic.

In some ways, we were on similar levels.

As I was trying to activate my Mind’s Eyes, there was a pain in my shoulder.

Even my body was pushed forward. As I turned my head reflexively, I could see Kook Minji’s gang. Far from apologetic, they pretended not to notice how they had just pushed me and chattered with each other.

‘Don’t let my personality come out… bitches.’

Little by little, I was about to cut off my patience.
