After narrowly avoiding a stream suspension, Han Se-ah descended again to the 35th floor, bringing along three hefty robbers.

Fortunately, no monsters had respawned along their path, so they didnt have to engage in battle while encumbered.

Groaning under their burden, they finally arrived at the 35th floor.

Hmm, brother? Could you explain whats going on? I have an idea since youre with the sister, but still.

Yes, I'll explain, brother.

The sight of three men, bleeding from their forearms and bound with ropes, prompted immediate action from the temple knights.

However, as Irene, clad in her nun's robes, stepped forward from behind me, their demeanor softened instantly.

Is it because in this world, the weight of religion is heavier than blood?

Without any evidence, the temple knights readily believed Irenes testimony that she had been attacked.

Even though they wore helmets, I could sense their expressions contort with anger as they took custody of the robbers.

They seemed almost ready to beat the robbers to death on the spot if they hadn't been in plain sight.

"...Is something wrong, brothers?"

Oh, its just that

Sensing their anger, Irene, after handing over the robbers, posed a question to the temple knight.

They had tried to rob a nun and got caught without a fight, but this excessive rage must have a reason.

Realizing belatedly that he couldn't hide his emotions, the temple knight awkwardly scratched his neck.

One knight led the robbers towards the miniature temple, while the one who had been scratching his neck lowered his voice and began to explain.

So, you're Sir Roland, the one who assisted the sanctuary. I apologize for not recognizing you sooner, brother.

Oh, it's okay. If it's not too much trouble, may I know what's happening on the 35th floor?

Today alone, weve received over five reports of robberies. The fact that only five people have escaped to report it suggests there might be many more victims who couldn't even send a message.

As I suspected, a large group of robbers had moved upwards.

The temple knight's subsequent words were almost identical to my earlier speculation.

It was a side effect of the temple knights having directly cleared the path from the 30th to the 35th floor.

Intermediate adventurers, who were operating below the 30th floor, saw an opportunity with the slower undead.

A lizardman with a scimitar could easily overpower an intermediate adventurer, but a lizardman skeleton, due to its slowness, was an easier target if one was prepared.

Instead of tirelessly hunting spiders or bats in caves, bringing a blessed blunt weapon to fight skeletons proved much more profitable.

The temple knights were patrolling the area, and since the undead moved much slower than spiders or bats, the risk of being caught while escaping was minimal.

The intermediate adventurers, driven by their greed, ascended to the 31st floor and above, followed closely by a swarm of robbers targeting them.

This chaotic scene wasnt limited to adventurers - merchants and construction workers also milled about, attracting robbers like ants to sugar, enticed by the prospect of easy loot.

It looks like the temple and the Adventurers' Guild might join forces soon for a subjugation request. There are just too many who have strayed from the Goddesss path.

Ah, I see.

Yes. While you, brother, should have no worries with your skills, there will be many nuisances for a while. May the Goddesss blessings be with you on your journey.

Thank you for the information.

I could now understand the temple knights' anger.

The temples investment from the 30th to the 35th floor wasnt for profit but was driven by faith, aiming to conquer the tower despite running at a loss.

Parasitic robbers exploiting the temples efforts only aggravated the situation.

The temple had declared a holy war and poured a fortune into reaching the 35th floor for the Goddess, but robbers were now exploiting this situation to prey on adventurers?

The tower's conquest was meant for the Goddess, and these robbers, hindering that, were committing a sacrilege like heresy.

The temple knights had a reason for grinding their teeth at the sight of the bound robbers.

Its fortunate that some were captured alive. Hanging them at the entrance should serve as an example.

As the temple knight left to commission a gallows, Han Se-ah muttered softly.

It really is like the Middle Ages here. I thought they were taken for the bounty, but theyre being taken to be hanged. And Irene didnt even flinch at the mention of hanging.

-Being a mercenary and visiting other territories, its common to see bandits hung

-But theyre bold, its only been a day since the holy war declaration lol

-Do others frequently encounter robbers in the game?

-It seems like robbers target players with shabby gear

-If you stay on one floor for too long, youre bound to encounter robbers Roland just speeds through floors

Speaking of which, do you guys often run into robbers? Including those who attacked Roland in the lower floors and got killed by reflective damage, this is only my second time.

Effortlessly stirring up drama and attempting to raise funds through it

[Han Se-ahs No.1 Inner Thoughts Translator donated 10,000 won!]

Basically, Im in a party with 6, 5, and two 4-stars. The riffraff doesnt bother us.

Ah, really. Instead of learning from my stream, viewers just get better at trolling. Talking about robbers was to understand the viewers experiences.

While Han Se-ah chatted with her viewers, Irene seemed to come to a decision, exhaling strongly with determination.

With clenched fists and pursed lips, she turned around, her face set with resolve.

Hey, Hanna?

What is it?

Then, boldly addressing the party leader Han Se-ah, she proposed.

Lets take down these robbers for a while!

Robber Subjugation Requests.

At first, Irene's proposal seemed out of the blue, but upon closer examination, it was logical and rational.

Our partys goal was to explore uncharted spaces, following the will of the Goddess.

With the temple's support and significant investment in purifying the 35th floor, our goal, including Han Se-ah's player quests, holds religious significance.

After all, the main storyline also prominently features the Goddess.

We can't simply move on, leaving those who disgrace the efforts of our fellow brothers and sisters.

Youre right. We're climbing the tower following the Goddess's revelation.

Katie nodded in agreement.

Grace, though silent, didn't show any signs of objection.

We had received a revelation from the Goddess, and the robbers were desecrating it an indisputable fact.

That's why Han Se-ah, astutely playing along, posed a question to Irene.

Are you suggesting we roam around looking for robbers? Wouldnt that slow down our progress in conquering the tower?

Well, thats

As a streamer, Han Se-ah was eager to ascend quickly, hence her question.

But it was a piercingly accurate one.

Our main duty was to conquer the tower and thwart the Demon King, not to hunt down adventurers-turned-robbers.

As a party that received a revelation, we couldnt ignore robbers tarnishing the Goddesss will.

However, fixating too much on eliminating robbers could actually impede fulfilling the revelation.

Irene, who could be considered almost naively straightforward, fell into a dilemma, pondering deeply.

Katie and Grace watched her struggle with a slight smile.

Finally, Katie comforted the troubled Irene with a compromise.

Why overthink it? While exploring the 36th floor and searching for the passage to the 37th, Grace can just check for any nearby human presence. We can avoid monster battles but check if the presence is that of robbers.

Oh Thats a good idea!

The northern knights dont scour every mountain when patrolling for bandits and maintaining order. We cant wander aimlessly without specific information.

Realizing her overzealousness, Irenes cheeks flushed red.

She felt a bit embarrassed being advised by Katie, who was the youngest and was often treated like a much younger sibling.

I don't feel negatively about it either, rather, I feel more a sense of pride.

So, as Katie suggested, if we sense any human presence, we'll check it out first.

Sounds good. From what the temple knights said, it seems like there might be quite a bit of activity.

At Katie's words, Irene blushed and nodded, and Grace also nodded in agreement.

Adventurers turned robbers, in addition to monsters transformed into undead?

We can easily handle robbers of intermediate level, but I hope we don't encounter any high-level adventurers who have turned rogue.

If we face high-level adventurers, it'd be dangerous getting hit.

Wed need to defend ourselves with shields and armor.

No matter how strong we've become, we can't withstand mana-infused attacks without strong armor.

I wish life could be a bit easier...

Thinking a thought that would likely provoke outrage if someone heard it, we decided to take a look around the 35th floor.

The Adventurers' Guild might have come up, or the merchants might have put bounties on the robbers.
