Entering Apocalypse in Easy-Mode



As soon as Asqa entered the party of three people, she found that Alessio was the leader among them.

As someone who has just joined, Asqa only has to listen and obey his orders. It wasn't a problem for her because she was used to that situation at the Selection Stage.

'So I joined a party again, huh.'

She thought about how she had a hard time surviving and accepting everything in the Selection Stage. At that time Asqa only felt that she was a burden in the group led by Clyde.

While her other friends struggle to fight monsters and protect her.

But it didn't last long. As the days passed with increasingly dangerous events, Asqa was finally able to learn how to control herself. Until finally she can become a useful member of her group.

Asqa didn't talk much to her new party members. She didn't know if they would be a permanent or temporary party.

Even so, she knew that in this party she had to fight as hard as she could so as not to hinder them.

Throughout the few days of practice, Asqa showed good performance with all the support and healing skills that she has. Although from the outside Asqa looks like a clumsy and timid girl who can't do anything right, Asqa shows that she can work well with them.

Asqa uses all the experience she gained in the Selection Stage to be able to know when to hide and when to show up to provide support. Thanks to her, the party members were confident that their fighting abilities had increased several times.

The three people got something beyond their expectations. And now they think that Asqa's presence is something important in Their team. 

"This is going to be a very, very easy mission," said Colmano. His eyes spread to gaze at the area around them.

"Why?" Asqa asked.

"You see any monsters here?" Colmano asked with a wide grin on his mouth.

"Oh." Asqa looked around her. She didn't find any monsters coming to meet them either. It was something odd rather than a sign that their mission would be easy.

"Don't you think this is even weirder?" Cuzia said.

"Yeah, I think so too," Alessio said with a frown. His eyes darted around the same as Colmano's. He even held his sword and was ready to draw it at any time.

But it's not like what Alessio had expected, no monsters appeared. Even though this Ruin is supposed to be having some high-level danger. 

"Huh! About time!" Colmano shouted as he raised his great battle axe forward.

Several meters in front of them, there are dozens of dry zombies marching toward them. Their movements were slow and it looks like they didn't pose any threat.

"It's still weird." Alessio still looked unsure.

"And why is that?" Colmano asked with obvious curiosity on his face.

"They are just weak monsters. There should be stronger monsters appearing," Cuzia replied instead of Alessio.

Asqa just watched them both. She, of course, already understood what Alessio meant, which wasn't too difficult to understand either.

Alessio felt suspicious because only weak monsters appeared even though he had predicted that they would be up against a lot of monsters that were quite strong from the moment when they had just entered here. But since only weak monsters appeared, all of this was unnatural.

It showed that among them, Colmano's intelligence level was the lowest even though he had the biggest muscles. Colmano also has the most raw power of them.

'I guess we can't expect to have it all, huh,' Asqa thought while looking at Colmano. 

They cleared up the dry zombies easily and quickly. In fact, all of that was only done by Colmano alone.

They entered the ruined city. Alessio summoned a map that appeared in his vision. Within the map was a dot that kept flashing in the interior of the city, indicating the location they needed to go to.

"So, the Tome is under this sand. We have to dig up this sand and then destroy the roof of the building where it is stored," said Alessio.

eαglesnᴏνel "I hope there will be monsters that come to and greet us!" Colmano shouted excitedly. He seemed to issue a challenge to all the monsters around to attack.

"Could you stop being an idiot for a while?" Cuzia looked at Colmano with an annoyed expression on her face.

Colmano shook his head accompanied by a groan as if it was Cuzia who was an idiot and not him. "You don't understand the meaning of warriors like us at all, do you?"

Cuzia gritted her teeth. But then she sighed to calm her emotions.

"It's no use talking to a creature made of only muscle like you," Cuzia said. Then she walked away from Colmano and approached Asqa.

Her relationship with Asqa has also started to improve because Asqa has managed to gain respect from Cuzia during practice with her abilities.

"We'd better stay away from that idiot, Asqa," Cuzia said loudly without trying to hide it from Colmano.

But Colmano just shrugged his shoulders. He felt that no one here understood his ideology which said that a warrior should always enjoy fighting. That way they can keep getting stronger. That is the essence of a warrior that Colmano firmly adheres to.

On the other hand, Alessio didn't care at all about the bickering going on behind him. He walked forward while casting his gaze across the buildings around them.

Alessio felt a strange premonition. Not only because there weren't many monsters, but also because of something else.

But for a few minutes later nothing happened. They dug in the sand until they finally found the roof of a building that looked like a temple.

After Colmano destroyed the roof of the temple and they entered it. After several hours of searching, they finally came back out.

Colmano came out last carrying a large box on his back.

"Now, let's go back home!" Colmano said loudly.

It was then, the people who had been targeting them all along started to move.
