Disciple Of Immortal Chapter 2 - Wall Of Gluttony

Chapter 2 : Wall of Gluttony

Disclaimer: To avoid our translations from being shut down, DO NOT repost our works on ANY social media, otherwise we will be forced to shut down.

Inside the labyrinth that was covered in red blood-like splatter, I sat on the ground while leaning against the wall.

I have yet to digest the flow of events that led to this outcome.

According to  that monster who insisted that he was the G.o.d's slave, this place should be the worst dungeon of another world called Rookroa, 《Cocytus》.()

Instead of killing me, he sent me to this place for a tasteless show (though it's even more disgusting to make a show of someone else's life).

「…. It's not like I can stop it. Let's think of a way to get out of this place first…」

I told myself.

According to Nyarlhotep, this place was the home of the most dangerous monsters.

I couldn't stay in this place for too long.

I don't know if there's an escape skill or not, but at least I wished to be spared from a horrifying death.

In the end, Nyarlhotep didn't give me any special power at all.

But…. it seems that it's mandatory that all those who were transported to another world must be given 《Rookroa Language Comprehension》, and 《Status Check》 skill.

These two skills could be useful.

《Rookroa Language Comprehension》 was, perhaps,  the common language of this world.

Nyarlhotep had said that he(temp.) had sent many people from earth to this world for a show.

So giving those people language comprehension was a must, so as to allow them to communicate with the natives of the world.

… Moreover, he(temp.) had even told me that the setting was similar to those in the novels about a journey to another world. I had really gotten nothing special, aside from language comprehension.

As for 《Status Check》, let's see……. It could be the ability to see another person's and my own status.

I've read about this too in those transmigrated novels.

「……《Status Check》」

Let's try to use it on me first.

I tried to confirm my own status as I prayed in my mind.

It felt like I could see something in my mind.

The act of confirming my own status felt as natural as moving my own limbs.

I felt something, like a terminal screen, appeared in my mind.

I-IT REALLY APPEARED!

Though I'm lacking on information since there's no other target to compare with… Well, to me, this felt like the initial stage.

Though I doubted Nyarlhotep when he(temp.) told me about level, it did exist.

It was the thing about the rules of this world.

I might be able to raise my level if I defeat some monsters out there.

I adjusted my breathing after calming my mind.

I wouldn't be able to survive unless I adapted myself to this environment.

There should be something that I can use to survive.

Nyarlhotep had said this place was the den of the most terrifying monsters..

『In short, it's like an "Extra Dungeon" in the game of your world. Numerous high tiered items in the world and the worst kinds of demons will be waiting for you in there.』

Yes, this place…….. Was also the house of cheat items.

I might be able to stave off the danger as long as I can find one of those cheat items, before I met any demons.

After that, I could slowly take my time to leave this place and gather  information about the outside world.

「Yosh… Time to go.」

Ear on the wall, I walked forward while shuffling my feet in order to avoid making any noise.

It'd basically be  checkmate for me once I met my first demon.

I did have experience playing a game of the roguelike dungeon exploration genre. [TL : subgenre of dungeon crawling]()

A game where one basically advanced through a randomly generated labyrinth by defeating enemies with one's equipment.

And with my case it was akin to when I was thrown into the deepest part of the dungeon at Lv.

Without even an escape skill, it was obvious that I was bound to get instkilled the moment I met a demon.

「Somehow, my head felt like it's working better…..」

I noticed that I was slightly thrilled about the current situation instead.

Well, optimism was one of my virtues.

「N…….？ 」

After walking for a while, I noticed that I had arrived at a dead end.

There was a black rotting corpse leaning on the wall.

The air was full of putrid stench.

It was creepy but…. not to the point of grotesque.

The corpse of someone who had died a tragic death aside. However, if it's just a corpse, I have seen those at the funeral services.

Moreover, I think that I had hit the jackpot.

This corpse's hand was tightly grasping the hilt of a golden sword .

This was definitely a rare item.

Now that I'd found this…. I may be able to somehow deal with a  demon, if i happen to come upon one.

「Well then, I'm going to borrow your item for a while. 」

I grabbed and tried to pull the sword.

I unintentionally leaped back when the bones crumbled.

……. S-Somehow I feel the need to offer a prayer for that corpse.

I tried to use 《Status Check》 on the golden sword, but… my gut was telling me that it was impossible.

It seems that the holder of the skill knew the extent of his own capabilities with the said skill.

Mine could only be used for living creatures.

Though I might be able to use this skill on another item or with another skill….

When I tried to use it…… The golden sword suddenly vanished.

「EH」

It was followed by a sharp pain coming from my arm.

The thing that had been gone wasn't just the golden sword.

My right arm all the way till the elbow was lost too!

「GOGOGO, Thanks for… The treat.」

A huge mouth suddenly appeared from the dead end of the wall in front of me.

The mouth was moving, and then spit out the golden sword and the bones of my right arm which had turned black.

――My arm!

Name : Gluttony Mimic

I used 《Status Check》 on it immediately.

The digits completely surpa.s.sed my expectations.

「AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! 」

Holding on to my bitten arm tightly, I ran while screaming as loud as possible.

「Thanks… For the treat.」

The inorganic voice of the Gluttony Mimic resounded in the pa.s.sage.

I fell as soon as I turned  the first corner.

I felt that I couldn't run anymore, my body simply refused to move.

My heart was beating like crazy.

It felt it would leap out of my mouth.

I'm too naive. Rather, I was trying to run from reality by thinking that I was too naive.

Though this world bore some resemblance with a game world, this wasn't a game.

Though I tried to be positive by tricking my own feelings and worries, it would be the end if I were to die in this place.

From the very beginning, I couldn't survive in this place.

That was the kind of show presented to those GUYS.

While it might be true that there's a little bit of amazing weaponry here and there, that wasn't enough to kill those monsters.

「Aren't I checkmated in this place from the very beginning? What kind of a s.h.i.+tty game is this…」

Oh whatever!

I at least want to die while lying face up on the floor.

「My bad, Kuromaru…. I've already….」

When I fell prostated on the floor….. I heard a loud sound of something approaching me.

I raised up my head.

There was the figure of a more than two metres tall headless man.

Its pale skin and physique made it seem like a wrestler.

On it's abdomen was a huge mouth as if to replace it's head.

I'd known even before coming to this place but…. here was basically the den of ultimate monsters.

This is the end for me for sure…

I've resolved to die in this place.
