Main Character Hides His Strength

Inside the tower, a short block of glass appears with opaque windows to the left and to the right.

The street was empty, but I couldn't help but overhear the rumbling.

At the end of the street is another door.

Kim Sung-cheol opened the door.

The moment I opened the door, I smelled a fragrance so intense it paralyzed my olfactory senses.

Kim Sung-cheol stopped breathing and looked around.

This time it's an intersection.

Distances blocked by walls with windows in each corridor were spread out in front of them.

A foggy noise in the street came into my ears, clear enough to recognize it this time.

“Hey handsome brother. Let's play.”

“Ten gold coins! Under ten gold coins! ”

“It's all the same when you look elsewhere, so come to my shop! ”

It's a story from a brothel.

There was no change in Iliya's expression, but Sofia expressed deep resentment.

Kim Sung-cheol stared at the wall where he heard a sound with his expressionless face.

In an opaque window, a shimmering human figure is cast like a shadow, but with only two eyes that glow red.

“Where is Manma's Altar? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked Ilya.

Iliya nods, looking up at the book.

“It appears to be at the top of the tower. ”

“Is that so? ”

Kim Sung-cheol continued to walk forward.

After walking a few steps forward, a masked woman who was barely dressed as a local appeared.

“Oh, that's cute. I've never seen them before. ”

Sofia is frightened at the sight of the disgrace.

“Brother! Don't look! ”

She rushes up to Iliya and covers his eyes with her hands.

Kim Sung-cheol, on the other hand, was staring at a strange woman with an unfathomable face.

‘You're not a demon. You're not a human. ’

The masked woman's feet do not touch the ground.

A magical force was imagining her like a balloon.

“Tell me your business. ”

Kim Sung-cheol said in a cold tone.

The red lips beneath the mask smiled curiously.

“Oh, my. Your brother there can see me, but he doesn't have a single eyebrow. Am I not your type? ”

“I told you to start with business. ”

There was a slight annoyance in Kim Sung-cheol's voice.

In response to Kim Sung-cheol's cold reaction, the masked woman regretted her taste, and lifted herself up slightly.

“I don't have any business. I just talked to him first because he's a face I've never seen before. ”

Iliya was caught in the eyes of the masked woman who said so.

Sofia still holds the Book of the Devil in her blindfolded arms.

The book gives a strange glow to the eyes of the woman.

“Oh, you have a book. ”

The masked woman's voice changed.

“Hey handsome brother. Can I see that book for a second? ”

She pushes her sensual body towards Ilya.

“Go away! You pervert! ”

Sofia draws her sword in a panic.

Then the masked woman smiles wildly and steps back.

“Oh, a girl who doesn't even suckle gets in the way. Do you want to die? ”

She flies back and raises her hands with polished nail polish.

Then, a red burning wall formed before and after Kim Sung-cheol.

You hear a woman's voice fading beyond the fire.

“If you want to live, hand over the book. Or burn it with a book. ”

The next moment, Kim Sung-cheol jumped into the fire.

He hurdles into the wall of fire like an island, rushing past the wall of fire and stumbling toward the masked woman who resides beyond.

Kim Sung-cheol's unexpected actions caused the masked woman to try to cast a spell, but her hands were quicker.

Kim Sung-cheol's hand gripped the girl's collar.

“Shhh... Shhh...”

My arms and legs, which clearly showed elastic skin, twisted.

Kim Sung-cheol gave me more strength, and the appearance of the masked woman began to change.

Kim Sung-cheol grabbed her by the neck and said in a calm voice.

“Who are you? ”

“I... I...! Quack, quack! Residents of this tower! ”

“Why do you covet books? ”

“With that book... you... can be a real demon...!! ”

“I see. One last time. Where am I?"

When Kim Sung-cheol asked, the masked woman painfully replied.

“This is... the Tower of Destiny... the realm of the Devil Myriadora...! ”

Kim Sung-cheol's interrogation ended there.

He throws the masked woman against the wall.

She breaks an opaque glass window and scatters the black shadow beyond and disappears into smoke.

In the place where the smoke had cleared, there was a large maggot holding back a human head.

It was a horrible creature that caused disgust just by looking at it.

“That must have been the pervert. ”

Sofia draws her sword and approaches the wall.

A frightening life gushes out of her eyes.

Kim Sung-cheol's hand stopped her.

“Leave them alone. They are punished for what they have done. ”

There are many forms of eternal life.

Ideal eternal life is to live forever, keeping the original form.

But such immortality is the privilege of those who go beyond mortals.

Thus, inferior beings had no choice but to pursue eternal life through their abominable and elaborate narratives fitting their level, resulting in a variety of bizarre and grotesque results.

Kim Sung-cheol found out that the maggots were the product of such a wasted eternal life with just one look.

Through a street full of opaque windows, you can see the residents of the other tower.

Overwhelming looks.

They are either young men with a handsome appearance or beautiful women with a sensual body.

They look at Kim Sung-cheol's group and throw a punch.

“There. Miss. You don't want to play with me? Let's just talk for a second. ”

“The boy with the red book. That's totally my thing. Would you like to have dinner with your sister? Or... anything else? ”

After Kim Sung-cheol's group ignored them and passed them by, the Seon-nam girls gossiped and gossiped to themselves.

Beyond them, you see a staircase heading up.

As I entered the next floor, a space filled with all sorts of aromatic food smells appeared.

Inside the opaque window, you hear the sound of smashing the glass, chewing the food well, and the sound of grilling meat over hot oil.

On the street were chefs with ridiculous high hats and ladles.

“Come on! You'll lose if you don't eat! The best food and drink you can't taste in the human world awaits you! ”

“Now we have one table left! Just in time for you to come! ”

They quarrel in front and try to lure Kim Sung-cheol's group into their shop.

Sofia, who was hostile to a masked pervert, was also nervous on this street.

Above all, the Bregas brothers haven't had a proper meal since they entered the barn.

Glug glug.

Their vigilance quickly crumbles when they smell the aroma of food smelling like starvation.

At that time, Kim Sung-cheol stepped forward.

“Let's have a taste of this. ”

Kim Sung-cheol pointed to a revolving piglet barbecue on a rotating grill outside the store.

“Of course!”

A chef wearing a big cooking hat that was only 2 meters tall laughed and gave a little piglet leg to Kim Sung-cheol.

Kim Sung-cheol put the food in his mouth with a serious expression.

Gulp.

Seeing that, the Bregas sisters swallowed a saliva.

However, Kim Sung-cheol's expression is unusual.

[This dish has a score of.... 0.]

[If you do not intend to insult me, you should not return this dish twice.]

It's not just a message mixed with the scores in front of you.

This dish contains more serious problems.

‘This meat is human meat. Tastes like hallucinations and drugs. ’

Kim Sung-cheol immediately spit out the meat in his mouth.

“No! How dare you spit out my delicacy of blood and passion?! You don't even know the taste of this! ”

The chef pulls something out of his chest in anger.

Blood and dried maggots were a huge edible knife.

“I'll cook for you! ”

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol lightly dodged the running chef's sword, grabbed the chef's back and threw his face into a rotating grill.

Gain -

The cook's body flutters as a terrifying sound of burning flesh resonates.

However, Kim Sung-cheol's strong hands did not tolerate the chef escaping the grill.

“Shhhhh!!! ”

Within the cries, the Bregas sisters were able to watch the chef's body turn into a giant maggot.

In addition, we could also see the roasted piglets that had been cooked in the grill turned into human thighs.

“You're proud to be a cook even after making garbage like food. You look so thick once. ”

Kim Sung-cheol slammed a chef turned into a maggot into the wall and slightly spread out his coat.

Then the golden brooch, which was hidden inside, shined a bright light.

The light blinks the eyes of the other chefs watching Kim Sung-cheol's group.

“Oh... oh! ”

“It's a token from a Fine Cook…?! ”

“It's true..! It's real!! ”

Unlike the Bregas brothers, the chefs on this floor recognized Kim Sung-cheol's token at a glance.

They stared at Sung-cheol Kim, surprised as if they were monsters, and said something.

“Good. Good. ”

Bertelkia in her pocket said bluntly, but Kim Sung-cheol listened with one ear and spilled into one ear, then said with a bold voice.

“Let's go.”

Since then, several districts have emerged.

Some floors were full of fluffy beds.

Kim Sung-cheol's group can see people sleeping happily on the bed.

I went to an empty bed and it was full of feeling of boredom and loneliness that I wanted to close my eyes.

On another floor, I could see people tied to frames and sadistic punishment with whips and strange tools.

The area was full of frenzy, where both the hitter and the beater were happy.

Finally, the excessive layer itself was one giant gambling den.

The people in the gambling parlor, like the other villagers, boasted about how handsome they were, but they didn't have one or more of their limbs or their noses.

Kim Sung-cheol, who was passing by the gambling den, could understand why.

When you lose a part of your body to a bet, it was their way of playing.

It is because the maggots who have gained eternal life had nothing but money to give them such tension.

‘Is this what the devil worshipers want? ’

At least they looked joyful in Kim Sung-cheol's eyes.

Whether it's acting or not is not important to Kim Sung-cheol.

“It appears to be beyond this door. ”

The last step was in front of Sung-cheol Kim.

As I climbed the stairs, a huge space appeared.

Inside, you find a giant lump of meat.

“Huh? Is that...?! ”

Vertelgia shivers lightly.

Kim Sung-cheol stared indifferently at the giant chunk of meat.

There were traces of a faint face barely recognizable beyond the ugly prowling lump of meat.

“Welcome. Stranger. You've never seen him before? ”

The chunk of meat spoke in a soft voice.

It had a low voice, but it was heavy enough to fill an entire vast space.

“I am the master of this tower. Myriado.”

The snow buried in the chunk of meat finds a red book in Iliya's hand.

“You brought a book. If you understand the meaning behind the book and are willing to do it, open it in front of me. ”

The altar of Manma was a huge lump of meat that would leave these dozens of tons.

“I'll tell you before I open the book. My quests do not only give one-sided rewards, unlike others. It means there's a price for failure. ”

The chunk of meat raises its belly by moving its protruding arm.

Inside its belly is a maggot, a human head, hidden away.

The maggots slowly pull themselves out of the pile of flesh, and grin at Kim Sung-cheol's group.

“The Book of the Devil you brought is your ticket to the quest! So if you have one chance and you want another, you have to bring the same Book of Evil! ”

The maggots chatter excitedly.

Kim Sung-cheol silently listened to the maggots.

“Myriadora has 10 quests, one of which is great. If you achieve greatness, you will gain the power to transform like Myriadora. However, you should not neglect quests other than the Great Work! The number of quests you achieve will change your status in the tower! ”

After saying that, the maggots smile, rolling the floor to see what's so funny.

Kim Sung-cheol opened his mouth.

“What happens if you can't carry out any quests? ”

When he asked, the maggot said with a creepy smile.

“You cannot even have eternal life, and you become livestock. ”

“ ……. ”

“But don't worry! If you complete just one quest, you will be qualified to become residents of the Tower of Fortune! ”

Kim Sung-cheol opened his mouth again.

“Will the quest be shared with the rest of us? ”

The maggots nod.

“You're welcome to take it alone. If you want to throw them to the cattle. ”

Hearing that, Kim Sung-cheol thought to himself.

‘It's been a really long time since I've challenged a group to a quest. ’

Kim Sung-cheol turned his head toward Iliya and said in a bold, distinctive voice, although he was an unsteady colleague.

“Open the book. ”
