I Became A Part Time Employee For Gods Chapter 109
#109. Pyramid Delivery (2)
The entrance to the huge pyramid was located in the north, south, east and west.
âIsnât the line huge?â
Damdeok frowned at the brightly shining sun and looked at the line at the entrance.
There was an endless procession of gods trying to get inside.
âWhat period of time do we end up in like thisâ¦?â
In response to Baekgureumâs words, Damdeok tapped him on the shoulder without saying a word.
âI only trust you, brother.â
Damdeok walked ahead with long strides. The long line was blatantly ignored.
âhmm?â
âCutting in line?â
The gods who were standing in line were glaring at Damdeok and Baekgooreum, but then they saw the words âPyramid Deliveryâ written on the blue vests and began to slowly make way for them.
âIâm a god who works as a courier.â
âYouâre having a hard time in this heat.â
âGet out of the way. âGet out of the way.â
It was a story I had already heard from Poppy. It is said that courier workers can enter anywhere inside the pyramid without being asked.
âPass!â
As soon as the rugged-looking entrance guard saw Damdeok and Baekgureumâs blue vests, he clearly shouted for them to pass.
âDid you see it? I heard the blue vest is a free pass here~â
Damdeok looked somewhat excited and tapped Baekgureumâs side once before taking the lead.
âAh⦠yes⦠that would be nice, broâ¦â
Baekgureum was still babbling about how Gao wouldnât live because of the blue vest, but Damdeok wasnât even listening. The sound of
footsteps
echoes.
Narrow hallway.
It was a dark hallway, with only a handful of sunlight coming through the small cracks in the walls.
Just when I felt like the claustrophobia-inducing stuffiness would continue for quite a long time, I saw an entrance of light in the distance, and soon an open panoramic view of the interior unfolded before my eyes.
âWow⦠theyâre killing me?â
An exclamation of exclamation came out of Damdeokâs mouth without me knowing.
The same was true for White Cloud, who continued to be sullen.
âwowâ¦!â
The inside of the pyramid was much more spacious and comfortable than expected, and above all⦠it was very gorgeous!
âNow take your pick! pick! âJust for today!â
âOasis Fruit Cactus Juice is on special sale!â
âA mysterious elixir highly praised by Horus!â
Brilliant merchants lined up on both sides.
Each person seemed to be busy buying and selling unique items and equipment.
That wasnât all.
âGo and taste the grilled sand monster~â
âRoasted sturdy camel, freshly caught this time~â
There were also unique foods that made your mouth water,
âIâm talking about~ The power I gained this time through my part-time job~â
âIâm selling a part-time job strategy guide for Greek mythology~â
âThe Fairy Kingâs Medicinal herbs~ There are different classes~!â
There were a lot of storytellers and strategy books using their own experiences and mysterious potions.
âItâs a completely different world than when you see it from the outside.â
It was no wonder that Damdeok and Baekgureumâs eyes rolled back.
âYou can go anywhere in downtown Seoul⦠hey hey!â
Damdeok grabbed Baekgureum by the neck as he rushed into the restaurant, drooling.
âThis bastard. âI canât stand that birdâ¦â
âAh, bro! This is what we do for a living anyway, so just take a bite of thatâ¦â
âNo. Donât do anything useless. âOur goal today is to be as inconspicuous as possible.â
Damdeok, who resolutely suppressed Baekgureum, walked quickly.
âLetâs see.â If itâs like Poppy told me, itâs like thisâ¦.â
From the east entrance, go straight ahead, turn right at store No. 16, go straight again, turn left at store No. 235, and turn around toward the bathroomâ¦. It
looks complicated in words, but in reality, itâs a long road. It wasnât that difficult.
The first floor of the pyramid was divided into sections like a well-organized new city.
âfound!â
âUgh⦠I want to eat thatâ¦â
We arrived at our destination, forcefully dragging Baekgureum, who was still unable to come to his senses.
A sign that says âArea Aâ.
A spiral staircase continues endlessly above it.
Guards with murderous eyes were standing on both sides of the entrance to the stairs.
âIt looks just like the stone statues from Egyptian murals.â
One had the head of a bird, the other the head of a dog, and each was holding a large spear tightly in its right hand.
Judging by the divine power flowing out, it looks like there will be quite a fight.
Intermediate god level?
As they approached them,
the dog-headed guard spoke in a loud voice.
âIs it a delivery service? âItâs late.â
The bird-headed guard also gruffly helped.
âOut of all the delivery guys today, you were the latest. âYou donât know what kind of customers are here in Area A, do you?â
Damdeok shrugged his shoulders at the guardsâ threatening attitude.
âHow should I know what kind of customers are in Area A?â
I do not know.
âI donât even want to know.â
All he had to do was find the fourth guardian.
The dog-headed guardâs face was subtly distorted.
âAnyway⦠I made a stupid face. itâs okay. âHurry in and carry your luggage.â
He doesnât speak rudely, but he obediently lets him in.
âAs expected, the blue vest of the free pass.â
is a mess.
I thought about giving that rude Jodong-ari a slap, but I barely held back.
ââ¦Then excuse me.â
Damdeok was exercising patience while thinking about the fourth guardian.
âokay. âMove quickly~ If you donât want to be caught by the higher-ups, youâll have to run wild~â Just
as I was about to pass the screaming guards and go up the stairs,
âAh, wait a minute.â
The dog-headed guard tapped Baekgureum on the back of the head with the tip of his spear.
âYouâre human, right? âHumans are prohibited from entering except for the Pharaoh.â
Tick.
It even sends a signal to come down with a chin gesture.
It was an insulting act.
Baekgureumâs face suddenly became cold.
Before the guy could draw his sword, Damdeok stepped forward first.
ââ¦Hey, this is my priest. âIs there a rule that says humans canât enter this area?â
When I asked Poppy, she clearly said it didnât matter, but why are they blocking it?
There was a hint of irritation in Damdeokâs voice, but the guards didnât notice at all.
âof course. This is not a place where anyone can enter. âWell, if you really want to go in, thereâs no way, right?â
The spinning shape was enough to tell what it wanted.
ââ¦Kickback money?â
The dog-headed guard was furious.
âKickback money. It means showing sincerity. Sincerity! âItâs like a kind of security deposit that guarantees that a human kid wonât go in and cause an accident.â
âIf itâs a deposit, will it be returned?â
âwhat? âIf this bastard is going to give it back, why are we taking it?â
âAnd why do you keep speaking informally? The gatekeepers are those who follow the divine instructions of Horus. âBe polite!â
The guards glared at Damdeok with grim faces.
It was ready to rush at any chance.
âI decided not to stand outâ¦â
Damdeok decided to follow them for now.
ââ¦you need people to get the job done quickly. Besides, this child is a priest subordinate to me, so no accident will occur. âI promise.â
I even spoke politely and calmly asked for understanding, but it was no use.
âOh, itâs okay. Itâs already too late. âIâm so upset, so you two should come down, you bastards.â
At the same time, the way he messed around was just like a bullyâs. Damdeokâs impression comes naturally! I frowned.
âWhat a bitchâ¦.â
âDogâ¦?â
âbird···?â
The guardsâ heads tilted.
I didnât understand Korean swear words.
âWhat is a dogâ¦?â
âWhat do you meanâ¦?â
Damdeok thought it was a mistake to hear the guardsâ puzzled questions.
âYou have to pass quietly. âQuietlyâ¦â
Damdeok, who engraved the character âto endureâ in his heart again, smiled.
âIt means guards with the heads of dogs and birds. In short, bitch⦠Yes, thatâs right. You bitches. haha.â
The guards had a suspicious look on their faces, but they seemed to have calmed down significantly after adding the word ânimâ.
Still, there was no change in his attitude of asking for bribesâ¦
Baek Gureum, who was watching, placed his hand on the sword and asked.
âHyung how? Shall we handle it?â
âItâs okay⦠I said we should move on quietly. âHow many times do you say it?â
I was just about to end it by paying a few pennies, but a dog-headed guard suddenly rushed at me.
âI was in a really bad mood today! âJust spend that money on yourself!â
When the guyâs stupid face came closer, Damdeokâs eyes sparkled.
I thought of a way to handle it quietly.
Ugh- Quang! Uddangtang! Craddangtang!
In the blink of an eye, the dog-headed guard flew to the other side and landed there, kicking up dust.
Damdeok clapped his hands with a cool expression. He shook it off and gestured to the white clouds.
âletâs go. Itâs good to save money, right? âWe have nothing to do with this anymore.â
The bird-headed guard, who was looking at Damdeok and his trapped comrade alternately, shouted as if he was overcome by evil.
âHuh? hey! you! Donât move there! âHow dare you touch the gatekeeper?!â
He swung his spear in a threatening manner and screamed.
âstop!! I told you to stop!! If you move any further, you will be sentenced to death?!â
âOh bro. Itâs annoying too. âLetâs just kill it.â
Baekgureum drew his sword, but Damdeok only waved his hand.
âLeave it alone. âLetâs just quietly move on as if nothing happened.â
âStand here you bastards!!â
It was the moment when the bird-headed guard launched himself at Damdeok on the stairs.
The dog-headed guard who had fallen down instantly rolled over, holding his shoulder.
âAaaah! Come on! âZach!â
âKrrrrrâ¦!â
âUgh! âLet go of this!!â
[The characteristic âOpening Orderâ has been activated!]
[Number of flocks following you: 202.]
âOh, the dogs⦠theyâre so noisy theyâre killing me. We didnât do anything. âTheyâre fighting among themselves~â
Baekgureum watched Damdeok climbing the stairs, covering both ears, and followed him with his mouth slightly open.
* * *
Knock-
âWho are you?â
âThe delivery has arrived~â
âPlease leave it behind.â
Damdeok hesitated for a moment.
The same was true for the white clouds next to me.
Their eyes met slowly.
Leave this behind�
Damdeokâs gaze glanced downward.
A chain held tightly.
What followed from that wasâ¦
â Crumbling! Kyao! Kyaoooo!
The lion-shaped monster mercilessly attempted to bite Damdeokâs thigh while wearing a muzzle.
White Cloud swallowed his saliva and asked.
ââ¦Isnât there a cage or something?â
âYes, none.â
There was nothing like that in the first place because it was moved by tying it to a stake on the lawn inside the cube.
The chain must be handed over to its ownerâ¦
Damdeok calmed his voice once again.
Knock-
âOh, sir. You have to receive this delivery yourself. âIf you could just open the door for a momentâ¦â
Jump up!
âOh really! I told you to just leave it alone! please!â
âSignâ¦.â
âHere! Thatâs it!â
bang!
Paper flutters in the empty hallway.
Damdeok smiled awkwardly and picked up the paper.
From then on, the situation remained the same.
Knock â
âThe delivery has arrived~â
âOh, just a moment~â
I clearly said it would be a moment, but even after waiting for 10 minutes, it didnât come out.
How long is just a moment?
Thirty minutes? one hour?
So, when I knock on the door again, he gets angry and asks why Iâm urging him on like this.
Still, I persevered and headed to the next floor.
Knock-
âThe delivery has arrived~â
âWhat are you doing now?â âPlease leave it at the door.â
So, if you leave it in front of the door, a few hours later
[Poppy: Brother, I heard there was a complaint from customer number 135 on the 97th floor. Itâs an expensive item, so what if I just leave it in front of the door?â¦]
Iâm angry.
They said just leave it and leave it?
âDamn Egyptian godsâ¦â
I was slowly starting to reach my breaking point.
Where the hell is the fourth guardian?
I tried to go around each floor and look for suspicious places, but it was not easy to find because the inside of the pyramid was so large and the further up it went, the only space was the godsâ personal space.
âI have to find a quick way to get out of hereâ¦â
At first, the inside of the pyramid was fascinating and fun, but as time went by, my desire to escape became more and more intense.
âhaha. Damn stairs!â
âWhy is there no elevator?â
Damdeok and Baekgureumâs heavy breathing echoed down the stairs.
No, if youâre going to follow Koreaâs delivery system, shouldnât you have also taken into account that elevators are essential in high-rise buildings?
This saved us the trouble of carrying our luggage up the stairs, but the hellish height of the pyramid was definitely not easy.
If the wind hadnât come in through the windows lining the spiral staircase, I would have probably lied down a long time ago.
âafter. itâs okay. âThis floor is the final delivery location for the first cube.â
âOh, itâs really tight⦠Bro, what floor is this on?â
â333rd floor. âWe are now halfway done.â
The sound of the wind beyond the window was at an unusually high level.
âItâs a big deal. I climbed this far but couldnât find the suspicious room.â
According to what Jooyul said, the only way to find the fourth guardian was to search the pyramid like teeth.
His secret room changes every day like a maze, and the gods inside the pyramid barely know him, so they literally have no choice but to search for him through hard workâ¦
âBut this is too much. So, what time of year do you look for it?â
It was a search for a needle in the desert.
As Damdeok was deep in thought, Baekgureum looked around the hallway and grumbled.
âNo, you canât find it if you look for a suspicious room. The rooms all look the same? A large stone door with two torches on either side and a stone statue with its own face instead of a doorplate⦠they are all the same! tighten!â
It was like that.
Egyptian gods had very little personality.
I donât know what it was like inside where they lived, but at least the outside entrances were all the same, as if they were taken from a photo.
âIn other words, if itâs not set up like that, itâs a suspicious room.â
Damdeok said that and began to carefully walk around the 333rd floor.
It was then.
âAh, I was really scared! âYou actually saw the Sphinx halfway through the open gap?!â
âKkkkk, why did you say you wanted to see her again? âIf you ask the Sphinx, he will tell you where she is right away~?â
âokay. âThe Sphinx knows everything about the Pyramids.â
âI was trying to help us get in because you were scared~ Too bad.â
High-ranking gods with animal heads passed by Damdeok and chatted among themselves.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âitâs crazy? âIf you get a question wrong, youâll get eaten!â
âYou just have to answer the question correctly, right?â
âha ha ha! âHe is like that too!â
âYou acted like you would do anything earlier~ The cactus god is a coward~â
âYou bastards! âIf youâre so confident, why donât you guys go in first?!â
As soon as the voice went away, Damdeok and Baekgureumâs steps stopped.
sphinx?
Are you telling me everything about the pyramids?
As if I was possessed, I walked towards the hallway they came from and said,
âWow⦠that door looks really suspicious, bro.â
In the far corner, a gloomy place without sunlight, I saw a huge door without any of the usual stone statues or torches.
âThere are no other doors around here.â
Instead, there are murals scattered throughout the hallway.
At its center
is a monster with a human head and a lion-like tail and a snake-shaped body.
âsphinx.â
Damdeok was already getting close to the huge door.
