[Come back soon! I'll be waiting!]
Taesan left the room, sent off by the spirit.
“Is that just what that being is like?”
Unlike the other NPCs he had seen so far, it was completely mad. Lee Tae-yeon had also said the spirit she saw was simply mad, and it seemed to have been the same when the Ghost saw it in the past.
[That thing was the same back in my day. It's just a crazy being. Its role is to teach you how to deal with spirits on the 21st Floor. That's it. Once the Quest is over, you'll never see it again.]
It was no different for Lee Tae-yeon. She, too, had only learned how to deal with spirits and never saw the Mad Spirit again.
‘But is that really all there is to it?’
An NPC is a being that has made a deal with a mage. That meant this spirit also came here hoping for something. He couldn't know for sure yet.
Taesan did as the spirit said and moved to the fifth room straight ahead. Then, he moved left three more times. There was an empty room, and on the wall, a single brick with no moss on it could be seen.
From the 21st Floor onward, all the walls were covered in green plants, as if this place were nature itself. That was the room the spirit had mentioned.
Drrrk.
When he pressed the brick, a passage opened. Taesan went down the stairs.
Kuuuuung…….
