Turns Out To Be a Genius Duelist

Tower of Perforation.

That's where it's named, but...

It is also completely different from the general shape of the tower.

I got to the top of the tower in the middle of nowhere, but there's another tower.

"External and resistant"? ’

I'm guessing, but I don't know why the tower is doing this.

In the first place, I didn't even think the structure was meaningless to a possible existence.

Anyway, I felt a strange sensation.

‘Is this the third time.... ’

The beginning is when the tower was chosen for the first time.

At that time, Yoon Seok opened the door outside and came in here, putting the statue of duel in his hands like a Hollen.

Then I met my first duel opponent and realized it wasn't a dream.

‘This was where I first met my manager. ’

The second visit was when he created his own power.

Yoon Seok, who was climbing the tower hard, was called by the first manager, Hetin, and earned a 'transcendence’ here.

Perhaps Yoon Seok isn't the only one here, but all the dizzy challengers have been through here.

‘But why did you have to be here? ’

I had no idea then.

But now I think,

Maybe there was a reason it had to be here?

For example, if you want to make something that doesn't exist in the world, it has to be here.

‘In the old days, there weren't many challengers. ’

The first way the tower defined the queen as an enemy was to foster ‘warriors’ as a small amendment.

However, a number of problems have been discovered, and it has become the current picture by revising it and continuing to develop.

‘So the waiting room, which was like a chicken coop, is just an additional expansion later, and this is the real home? ’

Probably.

When I see Rick heading here without hesitation.

Yoon Seok recalled his third visit.

In fact, the last one was called a visit.

Once it was a world made virtually through the trials of the mission..

I didn't even open the door myself.

- I told you how to get here without going through the tower, but I really didn't think I'd make it.

- Then get out of my way. I'm going to break this tower and finish everything.

- It's a little bit like this now. I can't do that.

At that time, Rick reached the tower through the cemetery.

However, I had to leave the tower in front of me and go back with bitter hunger.

But he got one more chance.

I finally managed to get in here.

With the power to destroy the Challenger's body and this tower.

“It took 500 years to get here.... ”

Regret is not the only thing left, and Rick mutters to himself.

In conjunction with the incident with El that just happened, the short voice was bursting with emotions that were complicated enough to be difficult to pronounce.

Of course, the time taken to watch was not long.

“Come out.”

Ric's voice echoes and spreads heavily.

“I know you're watching. ”

“I wasn't trying to hide. ”

A man appeared at the same time as Rick's words ended.

He was the first manager, Hetin.

“Rick Gersei. Gearco, you came all the way here. ”

“Fall out. It's the tower I'm here to meet, not you. ”

“Do you hate me? ”

“ ……. ”

Rick was silent.

Even if he didn't hate it for sure, it was hopeless that he had good feelings for Hetin.

After all, even if everything was the tower's plan.

It was Hetin who gave Rick the moment of despair.

- Betrayal. How is that possible? I'm also part of the tower.

It is funny to mention one thing now and then.

While yesterday's enemy is trying to be a colleague today, it won't mean anything.

“Rick Gersei. You killed the queen. ”

“Wasn't that what you wanted? ”

“Yes, but that's the problem. Why did you do what he wanted? ”

“Is it your hobby to ask again, even though you already know? ”

“Why don't you call it a personality difference? He just prefers to be sure. ”

“I have nothing to say to the sleepyhead. ”

When Rick cuts the line, Hetin touches his chin. I didn't notice how upset I felt.

I said it's not a bad word. I'm just chewing.

“A sleepyhead……. ”

“Call him," you said. I'll tell him straight away. ”

“He has no form. It's all part of him, and that's where he gets together. ”

“… be easy to understand. Is that why you can't meet? ”

Hetin smiles bitterly at Rick's direct question.

“It's all part of it, but there's a big piece of it. Maybe he's the one you want to talk to. It was his will to kill the Soul Keeper. ”

“Yes, call him. ”

“If you want.”

Hetin nods.

However, nothing has changed over time.

So Rick frowned.

Hetin, who was closing his eyes, opened his eyes again.

“Now, talk to me. ”

“ ……? ”

“Rick Gersey, isn't it because you've come here to kill the queen that you want me to? ”

“The contents have changed. ”

“Hmm, you're saying something weird. I can't do what you can, can I? ”

Soon it became convincing.

Or is that it? I think it was good.

Rick immediately came to the point.

“Don't say it directly. Now I can break this tower if I want. ”

“Exactly. You have the ability to do that now. Perhaps the end of the world will be determined by your choice. ”

A man who looks like Hetin nods as if it's nothing new.

And I looked at Rick and I said,

“So what end do you want? ”

Rick pauses and opens his mouth.

“There's only one thing I want. Change her fate with the power to intervene in her destiny, as she did in this body. ”

“Not to be unhappy anymore? ”

“Yeah, he's had enough misfortune. ”

“Even if she doesn't want it? ”

The question was, did Elle's refusal to use her power pass?

Rick was flawless.

But.....

“One day he will understand. No, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. I didn't want that. ”

Unlike Rick, who was worried that he would run aground and destroy the world, Rick's decision remained unchanged.

I looked at Rick as if the guy was interesting.

“Hmm, I don't think he's thinking the same thing about you. ”

“... inside? ”

“Oh, you didn't know? And you're watching this situation inside of you. ”

“... So what happened? It doesn't matter what he thinks. ”

As Rick opens his mouth in an annoying voice, his eyes deepen.

“You look just like her, but not at all. ”

“ ……? ”

“Oh, you don't have to worry about yourself. Anyway, I refuse your offer. ”

“... What? ”

Rick, of course, and even Yoon Seok couldn't help but panic.

Decline?

Isn't this the end that the tower has been eagerly looking forward to for years of terror?

What the hell?

“I've already reached the end I want. A moment of entertainment whether to respond to your offer or not. Yeah, it's just a small choice. ”

“... Is it okay if the tower breaks? ”

“Didn't I tell you. The end is set.”

I didn't understand anything.

I told Rick I had a chance to make an end of it, and now why the hell did you change your mind?

The man himself put the answer in his mouth.

“You certainly had a choice. If you broke the tower as soon as you got here, I wouldn't be able to stop it. ”

“... but not now? ”

“I see.”

The man moved his gaze.

In the direction of the door he just came in.

“Things have changed. ”

The door opens with a choking sound.

And beyond that, a woman appeared.

It was like a beam of light.

* * *

“Here you are! ”

“... How the hell did she do that! ”

“Didn't I tell you! The principal is a gifted man! ”

Thirty-one thousand horsepower.

“Come here! All you have to do is take the pills and everything will be fine! ”

When she opens the door, she finds Rick and shines her eyes.

Rick reflexively backsteps.

The idea that he would be doing now would be consistent with Yoon Seok for the first time.

How she could have come here.

‘No way, Sharon? ’

One possibility touched Yoon Seok's brain.

Sharon stumbled across while she was here.

If she communicated that to a thousand horses, and reached here along a broken wall through her waiting room.

I don't think that's going to be explained.

However…….

Why are you watching this? ’

Why didn't the tower stop it?

I don't understand anything.

If a thousand horses succeed in feeding that elixir, this side will wake up, not Rick.

And unlike Rick, we have a clear goal of destroying the tower.

‘.. Damn it, how does what work? ’

Yoon Seok dug into the tower's head and focused on what was happening right now.

Whether he thought there was nowhere to stand down or not, Rick was running to the station toward the approaching horse.

“Why is everyone interrupting me! ”

Yoon Seok was worried.

No matter how much you call it, the shiny stone is not pushed too much in terms of abilities, skills, and power.

No, it will be overwhelming in some way.

However, I soon realized that Yoon Seok was all worrying for nothing.

Good .

Her sword is stubbornly clinging to her, and it bounces so easily within.

As long as it seemed simple…….

A truly exquisite technique that has been added to competent steels \26880

“What is it? This terrible swordsmanship? ”

Rick misses his sword without a bird to do anything.

“What a child you're dealing with. ”

Rick wasn't even an opponent of the Thousand Horses.

“How could you miss a sword like this? Did you forget everything the Archbishop told you? ”

“… Profit! ”

It was enough even though it was just one exchange.

It's hard for Rick to judge that there's no answer with a sword.

So instead of retrieving the sword, Rick chose another way.

Magic Power level decreases to F due to the 'Compression Muscle Activation Effect'.

The real strength has reached MAX.

Rank limit of Strength stat will disappear by Infinity.

Infinite vitality that began to boil all over your body.

Rick smiled at the same sensation as the drug.

But.....

“Oh, not with the sword, so now we're going to solve it with power? What a brilliant idea! ”

“Please keep your mouth shut... Argh! ”

The situation has not changed.

When a thousand horses wield their swords in earnest, they were instantly put to death, Rick.

Already, a thousand horses swung their swords with one hand and held the medicine bottle so that they could be fed at any time.

Even so, there was an extreme gap between the two.

“No, no! ”

“Go back to where you were, no matter who you were. ”

“This is my body! It's mine! ”

“Yours? ”

“Yes! What right did you have...! ”

A thousand horses snore at Rick's screams.

“That's funny. Right? What right did you have to take his body? ”

“I'm him, and I'm him. What right do you need? ”

“How did you become him? ”

“That's the same spirit.... ”

“All right. Soul? Tsk, what kind of sound are you making.... ”

A thousand horses raise their heads and press Rick's neck with their feet. Then I opened my mouth badly with my hand in the sword.

Answer the question.

Thousands of horses are not persuasive.

“Oh, no……. ”

“Look. Yoon Seok, if it were him, I wouldn't have spit out that lament. ”

A thousand horses used it to win the cap of Elixir.

And…….

“Hmm, now you just wanted to be this guy, didn't you? ”

“No, I don't..... ”

“You don't have to answer. ”

I stuck the elixir in my throat.

“I'm not really curious about you. ”

“Urgh, urgh! ”

It was as lonely as the queen.

... “Ohora, you must be awake. ”

“Yes……. ”

Yoon Seok slowly opens his eyes as if he had woken up from a long sleep. Beyond the phrases that came to mind, I saw the face of a thousand horses.

She was smiling.

As usual, it's clear without pretense.

You have taken "Elixir of Purification" (Rank EX).

"All impurities given to the unique soul will be removed.

A unique soul is permanently attributed to the body.

Yoon Seok raises his body by wiping his bumped mouth with his sleeve.

I knew because I had already watched all the situations inside. Now is not the time to sit around like a fool.

“Why did you wake me...? ”

“You tried harder than anyone, you were honest, you were talented. You have the same spirit as Rick, but you've pioneered a completely different life. ”

Evil is a compliment that never feels good.

That's why it was even more awkward.

However, he smiled and naturally opened his mouth.

“Why did I wake you? It's simple. I wanted to have a conversation. With you, not Rick. ”

“... just woke me up for it? ”

The man nodded unconsciously.

“Yes. You're the one who led to this end, aren't you, Rick? ”

Thank you for distinguishing it accurately from Rick.

But at the same time, pride also hurts.

“I am truly grateful to you. ”

“Aren't you too confident? How do you think I'm gonna behave? ”

The man burst into laughter again.

“Didn't I tell you. It was just a small choice. The end of any choice doesn't change. ”

The end of what the tower says.

I'm not sure what it is yet.

I definitely thought I knew it better than anyone, but I think it might not.

But one thing was so obvious.

“I have a story to tell you. ”

In his story, which will begin now, there will be answers to all the questions.
