[Please select a skill card.]
But I had to stop my arm.
The moment I reached out to grab the card, fingers much smaller than me tangled my fingers.
"You can't do that. Gongcheong.”
“Yes?”
“So it's not funny. ”
The crystal breathes.
“You've provoked me to this point, and you're not going to show up at the end, are you? ”
I was stunned for a moment.
Her fingers intertwined with mine seemed to form a breath. Warm, cool, fog-like feel gnawed my hands.
“…… What are you talking about?"
“Hehe."
On the contrary, the breath sounds of the crystal resemble the fingers. Every time she came close with my hand and whispered in my ear, her finger-like breath gnawed, gnawed, and gnawed at my ear.
“Duke pushed the first card he got, and told me to give him a reward……. See? It's clearly on that card. ”
Boom. Boom.
The crystal touched the card in my hand with thin nails. The golden card trembles as if it were infected with static electricity because of the vibration of the tower's fingernails.

I want to be like you.

However, you will die!

“Look, Confucius. ”
The breath that became my finger grazed my eardrum.
“Is it clearly written? Here... no, not there. Here. End of the line. Obviously, it says, [which skills to copy are randomly assigned]. ”
The crystal grins.
It was like a girl playing a mean prank.
“Mr. Gongcheong. You told me to give you skills according to the rules of the tower. ”
Perhaps, it is the purest a human being can express.
“Will you follow the rules too? ”
Tak.
The sound of your hands bouncing.
Immediately, the golden cards scattered. It's like fireflies mixing with fireworks in shock at the sound of fireworks.
“Random.”
The crystal whispered against my arm.
“It doesn't matter if you take a piece of flesh from a shrine, but please, according to the resonant laws of the tower, decide which part of the skin you want [random] to pick. ”
I looked up at the night sky, and there were nine golden fireflies constantly hovering. When the constellation broke, a card became Yooseong, which followed the long comet's tail as it wrote down the night sky.
“You've had a good time, haven't you? Meet Mr. Sword. I told you what skills to pick, and I saw them all from behind. He just comfortably tucked his finger like an ice cream puff. ”
"......."
“But every Lucky Godhegem comes to an end. ”
I saw purple eyes.
Purple eyes also looked at me.
Perhaps there is no mirror as transparent as her eyes. At best, I saw the membrane of the purple eyes, but beyond that, my eyes continued to reflect endlessly. When the mirror was reflected in the mirror, the mirror was formed again, and the mirror was re-formed... Purple mirror...
“Now leave it to Confucius. ”
One day, my gaze was fixed.
Once you have a good look into the crystal's eyes, it becomes impossible to turn your head elsewhere. It was like being caught in a delicate trap. My eyes shined in purple, and once again my eyes flashed in purple…….
‘Ah.'
I tried to stay awake.
‘Come to your senses. ’
It seemed like it would become a statue looking at the pupils of the crystal for hours, hours, hundreds of hours, without even forgetting how to speak.
I breathed.
“I understand.”
He nods slowly.
“I'll take what you say I want in that situation. ”
“Ah-ha-ha.”
“But I make the rules. ”
“What is it?”
“[I never look at the back of the card.] I won't look at the back of the card myself unless you show me the back. ”
“Yes, well. Of course, it's an extraordinary story. ”
“However."
I looked at the crystal.
I only looked at her, enhancing my eyesight with error.
“Just because I hold the card, please don't treat it as a choice right away. ”
“Hmmm? What does that mean? ”
“I want you to allow me time to look at the cards, touch them, and deal with them. Ah. I'll never see the back of my eye anyway. If I flip the card over and look at the statement, it doesn't matter if I just cancel the skill. ”
“Hmmm..."
The crystal smiles cleverly.
“I wonder what you're up to. All right, Gong Gong. I can wait as long as I want for Mr. Gong's choice. We can use [Glacier Dragon Breath] to stop time in this world right now if we want. ”
“There's no need for such boats. ”
“Okay, let's give it a try! ”
I collected all the nine golden cards first. Cards swoop around like golden balls in a sporting event in a very famous fantasy novel, Arthur, kids. You are nothing but fireflies to me who honed my error.
“Phew.”
I took a deep breath.
My hand draws the cards very carefully, one by one, from the deck.
And...
"......."
You look at the crystal sitting across from you.
We looked at each other closely, leaving a deck of cards between us.
"......?"
No, it's not.
This card is not the skill I want.
I immediately made my decision and put down my first card.
“Huh?"
The Amethyst Bird laughs.
“Are you trying to figure out the cards by looking at the look on her face? ”
There was a mixture of idle laughter and ridicule.
“What kind of poker do you play, Confucius? The sign doesn't read faces to anyone. All you can get by reading the faces of the little ones is praise for perfect beauty, fear for noble originality, and infinite joy in existence. ”
I looked at the crystal.
“Birch.”
“Yes."
“Aren't you going to tell me to cut the crap? ”
“The family heirlooms tend to do that. It's really too much, isn't it? I've never had a housewife who treats, loves and caresses people as much as a servant. ”
While the crystal was talking nonsense, I carefully, calmly, and one card at a time.
"......."
Not this card. Next.
It's not this card. Next.
Next, next, next…….
"......?"
What the quartz noticed was a strange airflow when nine cards were reduced to three cards.
“Mr. Gongcheong. You……."
Maybe I'm not just reading the faces and guessing the cards, but maybe there's a clear way for me to distinguish the cards carefully. That suspicion must have been in the tower's head late.
“What are you doing? How do you figure out the card? ”
“I don't know.”
I looked at the crystal.
“Maybe it's another skill move. ”
“Confucius doesn't have fluoroscopic skills. Even if you have fluoroscopic skills, it is impossible to penetrate the skill card. It's magic made out of really special materials. How could I... …."
When the crystal narrowed my eyebrows, I threw away another card.
The last two.
I looked at the crystal.
"......."
“I see you have some fun cards left. ”
I was still just looking at the front of the card. The front of the card was painted gold. And it was engraved with some unknown symbols, and this was actually the material that caused the catastrophe among the hunters. What the hell are you drawing?
This is the pattern. Once in the middle, the dice or whatever, the polyhedron floats. And two snakes wrap around the polyhedron, curling up. Finally, leaves and flowers that don't know what plants are brightly embroidered on the edges.
Hunters argued countless times.
Why is this symbol engraved on the skill card?
"Polyhedron means Holy Gospel. The two serpents refer to Satan. That means the demons are surrounding the Holy Grail and the tower is telling us!
"Then what are these flies and flowers?
"Does this mean demons are interested in the environmental movement?
Bullshit comes in and I start to chew. Good Dilitho. "
But there was no clear answer from Hunter.
I don't know, but if you go up to the 100th floor, your best guess is that there will be a clue, 11 years later.
"Huh."
Suddenly, there was a laughter.
The inscription tilts its head.
“What's so funny? ”
“No, it reminds me of the kids at the top. Here's the symbol. It's carved on the card. because with this, Hunters just started talking nonsense like it was real. ”
By the way...
“It's just your family. ”
The crystal blinks.
“Yes, but? ”
“Puhahaha.”
Here's the situation.
In the kingdom, [Magic] or [Wizard] are symbols of [Snake]. Because I think the serpents inherited the dragon's blood. Magic was developed by dragons, too. It is natural to be shaped as a [snake] as many miracles as those of the dragon.
So either the ancestors of the family are wizards, or the ancestors of the family are wizards. In both cases, a snake must enter the family crest.
The distant ancestor of the autopsied bird said to have killed a quite famous wizard. The dead wizard's body entered the noble family crest.
The place where the Great Wizard lived was a very vast forest called the Fertilization Forest. That's why some leaves and some flowers are decorated around the snake. [This wizard died in the forest.]
The ancestors of the Magister swallowed the territory that was originally ruled by the Great Wizard. That's why the family name became a crystal after the forest. The polyhedron that does not know what is painted in the middle of the pattern is a crystal.
That is.
[The ancestors of this family tore up the wizard who lived in the forest, and the ball was hypothetically given the title Crystal.]
This is what the symbol on the front of the card means.
That's it. The end.
“Son of a bitch. Why are you punching your family in the front of a card? ”
“All of a sudden, I don't know why you call me a lunatic. Of course, the tower was built by a signpost. A small sign is a nobleman of the realm. He signed his own work. You got a problem with that? ”
“With this, hundreds of thousands of priests in the outside world are God's will. It's a prophecy of God. I drummed and played long and hard with all kinds of shovels...."
“Since the sign is also a god, may the will of the sign be the will of God? ”
Everyone I meet is a complete lunatic.
Anyway.
I looked at the crystal.
“Well, it's not even this card. Dropped.”
"......."
I threw away one of the last two cards.
The crystal narrows her eyes.
“Do you know what the card was? ”
“Yes, it was an amazing skill. ”
“Tell me.”
The Amethyst demanded proof from me.
I was willing to meet her demands.
“[Loved by dice]. ”
"......."
“Rank is like SSS. The effects are simple.”
There is only one sentence describing this skill. No, just one word.
+
[Loved by Dice]
Rank: SSS
Cheonan.
+
Cheonan.
“In a word, it's [getting luckier] skill. Golden Dragon's Eye, and this is actually the most deceptive skill. Better luck? Game over. No matter how difficult the quest falls, no matter how difficult the stage you enter, you're lucky. ”
That's why it was the last two cards I left.
“I've been thinking a lot. ”
“…… how? ”
“I've been thinking a lot about whether to use this card or that card. Maybe it's an autopsy manager... Oh, thank you. Forget it. Even if you didn't provoke me, I was unconditionally all-in. ”
There is a proverb that has been passed down from the tower for a long time.
Good luck, Lucky Shit.
This is because the Hunter's stat depends on what skill you have. In that sense, [loved one on the dice] is the best skill.
“But I'm not going to choose this skill. ”
I looked at the crystal.
“I'll choose something else. ”
From start to finish.
Throughout the time I was sorting and selecting cards, I only looked at the insemination.
"......."
More accurately.
I looked at her purple eyes.
“…… Aha. ”
Late.
“Indeed, it is. ”
The crystal realized my trick and laughed.
“Mr. Gongcheong. ”
“Yes."
“You saw the look in his eyes. ”
Yes, it is.
“That's right.”
It was a simple way.
I looked at the crystal.
“I just saw the reflection in your purple eyes. ”
The crystal silenced her lips.
She smiles joyfully.
He smiled and silently, just looking at me all the time, without being moved.
“Can you still see? ”
I nodded.
“Yes."
Your eyes are so transparent.
Purple is probably the lowest color to shine something on.
The pupils of the crystal were like endless reflections of mirrors.
“Can you read it?”
“Take a closer look. ”
The distance between us was close enough.
I picked up the last card I had left, and I saw her eyes.
My vision enhanced by error was trapped in her eyes-- in a mirror maze.
“Read it.”
The amethyst flick whispers.
"......."
The difference between vision and hearing.
I breathed into the senses that were not interlocked, and I read what would be my gold.
“Skull of a Hippopotamus Dragon. ”
“Yes."
“Rank. SSS +. ”
“Yes, the sign measured. ”
“Effect. Stores the memories of the living. Stored memory is stored in [box]. This box can only be destroyed by someone with the skill……."
“Keep talking. ”
The voice of the insemination grows closer.
Maybe it's just a simple mistake.
With abnormally enhanced vision, right now, my eyes only see purple circles in the mirror.
“Unless the box is destroyed, you can produce the body of the person who inherits the same memory several times. ”
“The point is that if you just put the original memory in a box, the body that you're going to be able to capture, no matter how many times, hundreds of thousands of times, no matter how many times, But not simultaneously. Only one body in one memory. Only if the body is destroyed can we make the next body. ”
"......."
“What are you doing? Confucius, keep talking. ”
“…… your body can build new memories around the world and [update] this experience back in the box. with your permission, of course. ”
“Think of the game by the famous Italian plumbers. ”
The insemination flickers.
The laughter is closer than before.
“If you die playing a game, will you come back? You don't die. Life is a coin. The box of osteoblasters that contains the memory is called [save point]. You lose your life and you die, you just come back to save point. Of course, the dead will not be saved.... You have to come back alive to save it at Savepoint. ”
"......."
“Because of this. ”
The cockatoo said:
“A lot of people have died. ”
The tale of that skill.
“How many people want their lives to have save points? as many as those who hope for regression. Hippopotamus. The people who knew her existed risked their lives to cross the desert, swim across the Great Ocean, through a forest full of monsters, somehow meet the Golden-Thread. ”
A story that cannot be expressed by just [Skill].
“Many people died in the process. ”
"......."
"178 people made it to the nest of osteoblasters. ”
And 178 humans became [save point].
Without worrying about death, they succeeded in turning their lives into [coins] without any reason to fear eternal ending.
“Worst military group ever created. ”
An army of 178 men traveled across the world.
“They used to put flags on their backs to indicate where they belonged all their lives. So, it's called chronic illness. ”
Soldiers flying flags that have already gone dark.
“A rock monk who was hailed as the greatest archer 1,000 years ago. The Least Assassin Helicopter Gate of the Mountains (! 17 Helix Phrases conducting). The entire royal archipelago turned into a sea of fire and fled for good. 600 years ago, the archipelago was supposed to be the greatest wizard in the kingdom. ”
In the long history of the realm.
Each one is a wrinkled piece of cloth from an era.
Just like my master, who defeated the last days of the Moorish.
“They made the Army. ”
There are 178 such warriors.
“If you look at the approaching troops flapping dozens of flags across the desert, every human being is scared to death, children are crying, soldiers are demoralized and defeated. ”
"......."
“As it is, the disease is a natural disaster made up of humans. ”
I still opened my lips with mirror-maze vision trapped.
“What happened? Those people.”
The Amethyst Bird chuckles.
“I became a soldier of the Sage. ”
“It makes perfect sense why the nobles of the kingdom who see the servants as dogs don't declare family wars to the servants. I'm going to kick your ass."
And...
[Selected.]
The card in my hand melted brightly.
[Copy the skill.]
At the same time, the mirror maze was loosened.
Purple mirrors no longer lost their cards.
The mirror became the eyes again, and what I looked at became the eyes of the crystal, and realizing it, I was facing the crystal.
"Four Kings."
In front of you.
“What you have is just as powerful. He died many deaths, leaving many scars. What do you intend to do with it? ”
Breathable distance.
The snake was the best place to bite a man's neck.
“I'm curious about the sign. Very. No matter how great, the skill of soldiers and solvents who have already been defeated by the minions and turned into loot. ”
The nobleman who killed the snake smiles with his own eyes.
“With that, how do you overcome your predicament? ”
I smiled, too.
“Prepare to weep. Topside.”
There is no doubt.
I have drawn the best card.
