3.

I thought it was strange.

Hey, who are you?

Do you see me?

At first, he thought he was just lucky.

I can't believe I have an expert on the 99th floor around me.

The more you climb the floors, the more you realize how great you are behind the scenes. The 99th floor. Only legends can be filmed. Although many times the messenger took a bystander attitude -- I was definitely lucky.

By the way.

"Huh, strange? This can't be happening.

Where did Grandpa Marcus disappear to and why is a kid like you in front of me?

Can't you give me back to my grandfather right now!?

That was weird.

How the messenger accepted the fact that he had become 'two'.

You are not stealing skills, you are copying them.

"That is, to Grandpa Marcus, there must be another me behind it.

The highest bidder in the world. Toddler Zone.

The one who prides himself on being the best in the world, the strongest other than himself, is utterly unacceptable. How did he so easily accept the fact that he and AhAhjussi had [split me into two]?

Grandpa and you. Which one of you will be the Hunter? I was a little curious. "

Just out of curiosity?

Let me help you.

Because it's natural to help others?

Let's conquer the tower once!

No, it's not.

“Does it matter if only one of you gets to the 99th floor? ”

I told you.

“Senior swordsman and I. One person reaches the 99th floor and your goal is achieved. All you have to do is get to the 99th floor, no matter what means and how. ”

-.......

“So even though it's attached to the swordsman, and it's attached to me, even though it's growing in vengeance itself... You're not embarrassed. ”

I was mistaken.

Luck didn't come to me.

“Because the odds have doubled. ”

Fortune favored the messenger.

“The swordsman and I are not the same. The old man is the enemy of tyrants. I'm an orphan without parents. The old man who was determined to challenge me once again... because he was young and couldn't accomplish anything. He went to the tower. An old man who's good at life. I'm used to death. Literally, it was too different. ”

So the messenger must have thought.

Very good, "he said.

“You're possessed by a completely different human being. As you can see, I somehow managed to capture the tower and prove myself, and the swordsman is still taking a step back, like a recluse. Two types. Two ways. Two possibilities, you can test them all. ”

What's the matter with you?

Why do such experiments?

“Your purpose is not to take me to the 99th floor. No, it's true, but we have to be a little more precise. Arriving on the 99th floor with the senior swordsman. That's your purpose. ”

- Huh.

The messenger smiles.

- Huh-huh-huh-huh!

Very enjoyable.

- Hahahaha!

With my arms closed.

- That's right!

Hair drifts redder than the sun.

- I can't hate you for this! Kim Gong-ja, you know how to calculate good deeds. No, I have no choice but to calculate. Because you're convinced in your bones that people won't do anything for you for no reason at all!

“Must have been built up from childhood. ”

- You're making up excuses for someone else! Heheheh. Good. I don't care. No, you didn't treat me as free.

How boring.

He didn't have his own body.

You can't just wander around the streets. Definitely not able to talk to others. I can only follow where I'm going and only float where I'm staying

Everyday.

If a human being is willing to endure such a life, there is only one reason.

- Well done, Confucius.

I have a purpose for doing so.

- Taking someone to the 99th floor. That's my job. That's my 99th floor quest. There's just one misunderstanding. We need to make this right.

“What is it?”

- Just 'cause you're up on the 99th floor doesn't mean you can't make it. If you had, I would have joined you when the Fall Rain King seduced you. Very harsh conditions…….

“You."

Someone mutters.

He was an elder.

“No, [you]. What are you talking about?"

She was still holding my neck. But I didn't put my hand into it like I did before, strangling you to death right now. Something a little more important has happened than killing me, than getting rid of the mole.

“Who the hell are you talking to? ”

"......."

“Is there... a sword there?" ”

“Yes."

I nodded.

“There is.”

"......."

“I am not the rebirth of the sword. The sword is clear, and I am clear. Behind you, the sword stands unfamiliar with its arms folded. Perhaps until the moment you broke the steeple, climbed the 99th floor, and came back here...... the sword has never disappeared. ”

"......."

“I stayed. I've been trying. ”

The Elder's expressionless.

I looked back, expressionlessly.

- Oh, hi. Baggage.

"......."

- Sword with 40% transparency. Contact the tower to purchase a DLC for transparency control. Oh, my God, sir. I can't help it. That's the trend of the world today.

“I can't see. ”

- Of course.

“I can't hear you. ”

- I will.

“I can't see, I can't hear. ”

Hip.

The Elder bites her lip.

“Well, what does it mean? ”

The elder grips his hand.

A magical storm rages.

With my right hand grabbing my neck, I triggered some magic with my left hand alone.

It was a labor force close to the summoning. Bang! The buildings have been broken apart. From where the elder is standing to the northwest of the city, a highway has suddenly been breached in a straight line. All the buildings that get in the way are made of dust.

"------!!"

A forced passageway leads to one hunter. It's like being caught in the hands of an intangible person.

Aaaaah!

Hunter's body flew in. It was abnormally fast. Hunter's neck is in the right hand of the elder, as if this was the destination from the beginning.

“--Khh, khh!! ”

Blunt screams.

“You're the Apostle of the Dead. ”

The elder mutters.

“Do it."

“Ugh, ugh… well… what,”

“Use Necromance. Right now, in front of your eyes. There must be a ghost nearby. It doesn't matter whether [Spirit of the Dead] or [Enemies in the car with Pian] use any skill. It doesn't matter if you pray to your stupid constellation to use your powers. Make me talk to the damn ghost. If you don't want your head to explode. ”

“S, Skill Activation……."

A spiky aura surrounds the area. The radius definitely included the rear guard. The apostle who used his skill in obedience to the threat of the elder trembles.

“Nobody…… nobody. This is the soul of a lion..."

- It's no use.

The messenger said:

- I'm not a ghost. Technically, it's skill. Physical interference in this world is a skill level blockade. Only a nation can intervene mentally with a skill owner. Elder, now you don't own me. I've never owned one at all.

“Use other skills. Use your power."

“Skill Activation……."

A swarm of light has spread.

“Next.”

A swarm of light has spread.

"Next."

A swarm of light has spread.

"......."

No miracle happened.

Hunter groans.

“Nobody, nobody.... Elder, there is no soul at your side. The vengeance is full, but in the beginning, you surrounded the horse's magic and prevented the curse of the dead from working. Anyone who dies will be by your side..."

“Get lost, you idiot. ”

The elder sprinkles his left hand. At that moment, Hunter bounces off and hits the outside wall of the building. Kuang! The hunter shrieks without a bird screaming.

“I'm gonna kill you. ”

The elder stared at me again.

Chewing his teeth, he glanced at me with his fierce eyes.

“Let me see him right now. ”

- Arthur.

“Or are you lying? Acting like you're trying to trick me into talking to someone who's not even here? Don't be silly. I'll kill you. ”

- He's not dying.

“Shall I show you how many times a human skull can be shaved off? I'm gonna cut your brain out first. Muscle. Bone. Intestines. Nerves. Thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of cuts. ”

- In the end, you will be the one to lose.

“So peaceful. Or so peaceful. Maybe he's making fun of me. All right, I heard you call him the Four Kings. I'll ask you. I can inflict the worst pain on you. Tell me.”

A thousand years old with rotten eyes.

“Are you really not afraid of death? What are you, a quack? ”

"......."

I looked down a thousand years.

“I'm sorry.”

“Threatening like that won't help. It doesn't change.”

"......."

“The sword said to me, ”

You.

You're talented.

There is also a tremendous talent.

Of course, you don't have the talent for martial arts.

But regardless of that, you have a very rare gift.

“I have no fear of death. ”

Actually, I was overcome.

I have overcome it. I will overcome it in the future.

That's why.

Because I knew it would be.

“The sword chose me. ”

"......."

I feel it.

The thinning of the power from the hand that grabbed my neck.

Little by little.

“The sword has never betrayed you. Gray Spiders. I have never broken a promise to you. ”

“I,”

“I waited six years. I waited six years for the sword to clear the 99th floor. That would be enough, and you'd think it's full of self-determination. ”

“So,”

"It just took a little bit more than that."

"I thought you were dead. ”

A chewed up voice.

“Of course... Of course, you think you're dead. No, he's as good as dead. What? What? Don't lie to me. It didn't take you years to get to the 99th floor. Swordsmanship. You said it was invincible. You said you were going to take down the tower by yourself. But, why, it's taking so long. Don't lie to me. Why……"

“Skill card, open. ”

I reached for the elder's face.

In front of you.

Her eyes were probably engraved with a little light.

+

The constellation of the sword.

Rank: A +

Effect: From another world. You cleared the Tower of the World to the 99th Floor, but were frustrated with 100 floors in front of you. The grudge remained, and I was the one behind it without paying the bills. You can't physically interfere in this world, but you can interfere in the spirit of the owner.

Get advice on his wealth of experiences and amazing skills!

Except for the owner, no one will recognize the mastermind.

A skill copied from Hunter Marcus Calenberry.

+

The undeniable truth.

"......."

At first, the grip collapses.

“... No. This is your failure. You lost, constellation? What's the point of taking down the tower when you're a constellation? You're a god. ”

- So.

Next, the acute angle of the eyebrows collapsed.

- I never used the power of the constellation. Ever. Ever.

Every time I spoke out to the messenger, the pillar that had stood behind me for a thousand years, one after the other, collapsed.

- I didn't write the message. Faith was thrown away. It doesn't matter if you think it's an excuse. But I ran as hard as I could. I wanted to stay human, even as a ghost. Funny story.

The expression on your cheek collapses.

- Grey.

"......."

- A little late.

Finally, the laughter of the mouth collapsed.

- I'm sorry.
