Chapter 21
“Our team will wait here. We’ll clear the dungeon and come back, so don’t move from this spot.”
Lee Sanghyuk spoke while gathering his customers behind a large boulder.
This was a designated rest area created by the Management Bureau for rookie hunters—a space protected by a fixed shield.
“Especially that door over there—beyond it is the dungeon core and the boss monster. Under no circumstances should you go in. Understood?”
After giving his final warnings to the clustered group of customers, Lee Sanghyuk moved out again.
As the penguin dolls fluttered along behind him, quiet chuckles broke out among the group.
“Isn’t that seriously adorable?”
“I feel like I walked into Kidzania instead of a dungeon.”
The rookie hunters had entered the dungeon bracing themselves for danger.
They had watched countless dungeon ecology videos and prepared themselves mentally, nerves taut—only to be greeted by round slimes, a giant teddy bear, and flying penguin toys.
The tension in the air quickly dissipated.
Laughter spread, and the atmosphere became cheerful.
