5.
We held a banquet.
We almost cleared the 40th floor in one go, and the viper came back more powerful than he could have imagined from his own pulmonary training. Enough to throw a banquet.
We, the five guild leaders, are no longer wary of the rapid growth of our peers. I'm not afraid. Just like a good friend, I congratulate you with my sincere heart.
Very purely.
“I'll make my special milk cocktail especially for the astronomer. ”
“Enough! Enough! You don't know anything about cocktails like crab shells! I want to enjoy the atmosphere of the cocktail bar, but I don't know what it tastes like, so why would Kitchen Dandy just drink milk as a sacrifice... Phew!? ”
“Here, have a drink. A cocktail made with combat gauges. Ordinary Calois Milk put espresso in durian juice and mixed it with milk to make it less fun. Isn't this just like a beach resort in the middle of nowhere? Let me measure your romance. ”
“Phew... Ugh, ugh! Woof, woof, woof! ”
“Hoho, the romance... 20,000... 50,000... 530,000 is getting up. Youth is good. An old man like me should die of combat gauge. ”
“Did the drug lord move you, you crazy old man!? ”
It was so pure.
“You guys really do play at student level.... Is there a problem with brain development...? ”
The Black Dragon Master shakes his head and enjoys a quiet drink with the paladin. Laying a square mattress, it seemed as if intellect had fallen below a certain level and was polling the nuance not to approach it. The Earl was also sneaking his nose in the mattress and whispering to the two of them, "Nyanyang."
Peace. Advanced. Wow.
The quality of the Black Dragon Queen, who secretly shows that this is the true beauty of drinking.
“Hell on one side and paradise on the other... ”
I smiled bitterly with orange juice.
At that moment, a familiar voice pops out of my ears.
“No. I think it's paradise either way. ”
"......."
I turned my head.
The white blonde glares at you.
As long as she was a girl, there was a face that looked like it had been carved perfectly.
“…… You always go back and forth. Princess.”
“Yes! That's my specialty! ”
The girl stands on her waist with both hands, Ahem.
[‘Wonder Girl' is a phenomenon.]
A mysterious princess.
A gateway station for us from the 30th to 49th floors.
Others think it's a constellation, but it's actually one of the pillars that is the most powerful in the tower.
Above all, she is also the true daughter of the passenger.
“Ahhhh. Amazing, by the way. Yes, the Four Kings are amazing. I've complimented them many times, but they're amazing! Yes! That's the archangel I set in motion! ”
Fluffy.
The princess sat next to me, smiling in the room. I want to hear what this guy has to say, but I look at him with my sparrow eyes while I move my ass.
"What's your plan this time? ”
“Not at all. Nothing! I really just stopped by to pay my respects to the Four Kings. ”
I sighed and drank orange juice.
A constellation and pillar, the daughter of a mother raised beside me.
“I really want to compliment you. You, uh... You guys did really good. I've been through the towers myself, but there's no place like this where stage clears are completely unanimous. ”
“Nothing at all? ”
“Yay! The [best] case I've ever seen has been a one-man scourge. This is a secret you can never hear with your current level of access.... ”
Anyway, the princess stretched her legs.
“There were six different kinds of climbers. From the beginning, the agreement was to hang one faction as an insult. Isn't that clever? The flood is because of that race, too. Even after the drought, it's because of that tribe. My life is shit because of the faction. ”
"......."
“If you want to make allies, you have to make enemies first. The archangels of that tower, the invaders, have come up with a proven strategy. Except for one faction, all factions were united. ”
“…… is that the [best] case? ”
I looked at the girl.
This tower, every tower, every impossible tower. All the screams, grudges, and deaths boiling in the tower are hugged by the tower master, and I feel the pain instead.
The child who asked me to save her mother, that's what I'm saying.
"Yes."
The princess grabbed a loaf of bread and ate the well.
“Because that one tribe, it's called the Witch. After all, the witches wiped out the other five factions, even the attackers they believed were gods, and even the other four. ”
"......."
Eg.
“Yes?”
“Neanne. And after brainwashing the other factions as slaves, they attack the lower floors of the tower in reverse. They slaughtered all the humans who used to play comfortably in the backyard, relying on only the attackers. Human beings used to be biotools. Happy ending. Happy ending.
The princess smiled.
“Ah. By the way, [Humans] are different from you [Humans]. It looks like a toad, and in short, the humans of that world were treated like gods and turned into lab toads one day. ”
“Oh my god. Wh..."
“Pretty cool, huh?"
The princess wept endlessly over the bread. The ball rises like a hamster.
I can't even pronounce my voice properly in that state...
“That was roughly 1,000 years ago. ”
The princess's eyes turn this way.
The sheep balls were full of honey loaves, but their eyes strangely sank.
“They're surprisingly close to you. Four Kings.”
I blinked.
“Yes?”
“Think about it. ”
Her eyes suddenly became serious.
“You met them. ”
"......."
Pranksters are like the smell of a princess. I always wandered around the corner. However, the eyes only glance back at this side, like an undisturbed jewel.
I couldn't easily recall.
“They said they raided the tower 1,000 years ago. How are you going to meet me? However, the time difference..."
“It's common to use errors or magic if you're just living, or live for thousands of years. It's common on stages at least 50 floors later. You can tell by the way she looks at you. ”
Suddenly.
“…… Ah."
The [hints] that the princess threw around pretending to be nothing fit into my mind.
Mr. Sword.
Huh?
You said you tore down that tower 150 years ago.
That was when I reached the 50th floor, using a very close measure of Cheetki to meet the supernatural.
The 50th floor was completely different from the stage I had experienced so far, it was dangerous, and most of all, a terrifying [Force] was taking over the entire stage.
They used to have six towers!
But I broke one of them.
This [force] is tied to my backbone... swordsmanship and unresolved grudges.
Cheolcheon supporter.
So as soon as I imitated the sword and screamed, that [Force] immediately responded.
Sword Sword EYE EYE!!
I remember the reaction being a little violent.
You're back, Sword! I knew you'd come back!
Possession! Rebirth! That's it! It doesn't matter! I Kill You!
We'll kill as many of you as you! I'll tear your soul apart and scatter it all over the world and shit on it! Kill! Kill!! Kill him now! Cast the name and history of the Horse Tower and pursue him to hell!
I can't forget the hundreds, thousands, and tens of millions of wizards rushing into our broomsticks.
I shrugged my shoulders slightly in the memory and looked back at the princess's face.
The princess was smiling fervently in the single room.
"......."
Mmm-hmm.
Indeed.
Let's get this straight.
1. 1,000 years ago, there was a tribe that swallowed gods and humans inversely and became the main ruler of the tower.
2. The tribe's name is [Witches].
3. Incidentally, 1,000 years ago, there was a force sitting on the 50th floor of the tower and dominating the stage as a great breadwinner.
4. The name of the power is [The Tower].
5. Witches say all the races who persecute them are either slaves or bioexperiments. There are six of them in this poor position. There are five different species that have been beaten up by witches, and there are six Toad Humans in the world who have abandoned the Witches.
6. Incidentally, really coincidentally, the tower consists of 6 towers.
"......."
That is.
“Those are the witches from the Horse Tower I met on the 50th floor!? ”
“Pabababang - correct -. ”
Bam!
Where she got it, the princess burst a birthday firecracker.
“Oh, what a king! It's easy to tell because you're quick to see. ”
“Crazy……."
I realized that I had missed an important question in the meantime when I realized that my relationship was so complicated that I could stitch it up and become full of shit.
“W-wait a minute. It was possible for the main residents of the tower to change!? ”
“Yes. If the children of the Designated Tower turn on their heels and annihilate all the inhabitants of your Tower, then from that moment on, the inhabitants of the Tower will become Designated, not Humans. Well, not unless the Four Kings are alive. ”
"......."
“Even the people of the Aikim Empire. Even the people of Revelation where Raviel lives. Theoretically, I can climb the tower on your behalf. It's just that you don't realize it because you're still monopolizing ranking. ”
Ranking.
Clearly, it was up to seventh place to make it to the front line of the tower.
“Then, if someone in the targeted world entered the ranking of seventh place instead of the people here...."
“Yes! They should be able to climb the tower. ”
The princess shrugs.
“Well, it won't be easy for them to rank up. ”
“Why?”
“Hmm? They're fighting every day where they were born. People who have no reason to leave the earth don't usually have a reason to go up in the sky. No matter how strong they are, the tower doesn't pay attention to them. ”
It left a strange ringing in my heart.
After a while, the princess shrugged.
“But not necessarily for that reason, there may be people who aim to climb. For example, should I call you the Designated Nation, or" Assura "? ”
The princess smiled.
“Asura is strong. And knowing that there are constellations amongst them, they know that there is a higher world. That's it. I know all about martial arts even during the feasts, and I even know how to practice martial arts. Those kids will rank faster.... That's gonna get us in trouble. ”
Did the child inherit not only pranks but poison from the mother?
In the princess's eyes, some elaborate arsenic laughter and joyful laughter flowed.
“What's the problem? ”
“The tetrarch assures you that the Designated One will never betray you. So do your colleagues. But what about the vast majority of the people who have not participated in the attack with you? Do you want me to open my arms and greet them like they're their own? ”
"......."
“Hehe.”
The princess mimicked a playful smile.
“What are you going to do? I'm going to trust you." You're the king. The image might work, but what about the rest of you? Very few people know that a black dragon has changed, right? I wonder if there are six people who know the Inquisitor has changed. ”
"......."
“Would you believe me if they said, The Serpent? The Sword? Do the people who live under the tower trust you? Do we really trust the kids you brought with us? ”
I looked around slowly.
You hear a whistling noise.
“I'm afraid the durian course ends here. ”
“Sa, I'm alive... Ugh. I survived... I survived... ”
“Here's a cocktail made with the finest salt hand-picked from Slimepolis in a white week made from mountain fluids. The Celestial Moonlight.I heard you have to take this at once to reveal the delicacy. Drink up.”
“Eh……. Isn't that just salted in gummy bears? ”
“Drink.”
Yeah, it is.
Both men and women, races, parents and children, and everyone in the banquet hall huddled together in their own way. There was jealousy, admiration, friendship, ripe hope and a long sigh.
Everyone is looking at each other.
The serpent did to me, as I did to the serpent.
‘If you look at people as people. ’
I nodded.
‘That's enough. ’
And I looked at the smile in front of her eyes.
“I can fix this. ”
“Hehe?”
“Actually, I can help you solve it. Well.”
I turn my head to look at the Black Dragon Juice. The Black Dragon Master was working with the paladin, and he was watching the surrounding landscape with a dull face without much chatter. That's when I looked at him.
- What are you looking at?
The lip of the Black Dragon moved. Her face is covered in the shade of palm leaves. Though they were quite far apart from each other, the echoes that flowed in error resonated sharply in my ears.
“Please come in for a moment."
- It's annoying... why?
“I have something to tell you and the girls. It's important.”
The Black Dragon Master sighs and lowers his drink. Pod! Before the cup reached the bottom, before a sigh could finish, the Black Dragon Juice in [Moments Before] appeared right in front of me.
“What's going on? ”
“Before I go up to the 50th floor, I have an event to prepare for. ”
“Events?”
“Yes, an event. ”
The Black Dragon Master tilts his head. The princess looked at me with an interesting face.
I opened my mouth slowly, looking at the two of you.
“Tomorrow. I will return to the first floor of the tower and cast my vote. ”
“Voting? Voting ended all nobles last time. ”
“No, I still have one last vote left. ”
I shook my head.
“In our tower, we haven't received votes from [people living in Babylon] yet."
"......."
Anastasia shuts up.
Yes, it is.
‘I really need to vote. ’
The five guilds united through past divisions.
The guild leader decides to keep looking forward, wounded in his heart.
It's a good thing.
We should be celebrating.
‘But still, our own story. ’
The people who live in Babylon every day don't know that.
The stages are delighted, cheerful, and supporting the giant guilds at unprecedented speeds, but there are still [invisible problems] lurking everywhere.
Perhaps, like any world line the tower owner has shown, there is rebellion in the Temple of Mankind, and the Black Dragon Master has been betrayed, and the tower will crumble down from within.
If we expose ordinary people, they will also ignore us.
‘We need to talk to each other. ’
No, a story is not enough.
‘You have to show them. Feel it. so you can experience. ’
To do that.
This event is absolutely necessary.
“Anastasia.”
“Prepare for a press conference. ”
Anastasia narrows her eyes.
“Hmm."
“I will hold a second press conference after I become the tetrarch. ”
“An event like that...... is not bad. It's a pleasant thing to boast about outside.... ”
“Allow the residents of the tower to freely attend the conference as well as the journalists. Residents can ask questions, and I'm not avoiding them. ”
“And..."
I looked straight at the Black Dragon Juice.
“Not just me, I want you all to attend. ”
"......."
“To all the people living in Babylon, let's face it, let's speak fairly. ”
For us to climb the tower together.
"......."
The Black Dragon Master is silent.
The silence was long.
Not because there were so few words to say, but because there were so many words to say, it was a silence to endure and swallow up the drought. Therefore,
“It will be dangerous. ”
The words that came out of her mouth were very implicit.
“Regular press conferences are under our control. Newspapers allowing entry, journalists, questions allowed at the conference, responses, the placement of seats, it's all carefully controlled by the black dragons. But if I give permission to ask the villagers...."
“I know.”
"......."
Anastasia shuts up again, shuts up a little longer, and opens her lips.
“There are a lot of people who want to molest you. ”
“Yes."
“Our guilds have united and raised a secret star. The work of the Four Kings is actually done by five guilds, and they deliberately teach the Four Kings a lesson to build stars. The Four Kings are just Marionette and actually follow the orders of the five guilds……."
“I know.”
“You're an orphan. You brought the headmaster into the tower. They will be ignored unknowingly because they are orphans, and as soon as they get up there, people will look at them with stiff eyes...."
“Yes."
“They don't deserve to hurt you. There's a lot of them. Instead, you need to make room to get hurt."
“There is.”
I nodded.
“Yes, you do. You know you do. ”
"......."
“If anyone wants to hurt me and scratch me, there are some kids who are just as petty as I used to be.... Anastasia. The top five guilds have been insisting on secrecy for over a decade. ”
I lay my palm on the back of Anastasia's hand.
“I'm not making up words that don't exist to hurt you. I've been treated like a nobody, so I'm just trying to hurt somebody and let them know that I'm here. ”
“…… to the wrong person, the wrong wound at all. ”
“Well. The world is full of irrational things. ”
I smiled.
“Still, I think there is a role for leaders to play in a brief, irrational task. ”
"......."
“You made me a leader. ”
I opened my mouth.
“So it's my turn to be the leader of this tower."
