Tower – 25th floor (3)

“Why no answer?”

Hail began to approach me little by little, thinking I was frightened when I hesitated. I think it’s natural to be scared with that face and that body.

Ummm, what should I do?

There’s nothing wrong with fighting. Just by looking at the borders of Heil, he cannot be my opponent. The traits I already have are enough to overcome even if they are marked in red.

‘Honestly, I want to run to the respawn area like this and see…’

It can’t be. There are dozens of NPCs like this that I know. If everyone had a hostile attitude, it was sure to be annoying in the future.

If I say that I’m friends with Park Noah, my attitude may change, but if we get along like that, there’s no point in bringing them along. She was brought here to divert her attention this way.

uhh I think it’s probably right to give up now.

‘Let’s just sneak in at night.’

I also brought the ‘shabby cloak’ I bought a long time ago, just in case. Unless you were a magician of a certain level, no one could see through [Secret].

I raised my hands and made a gesture not to do this. Then Hail stopped coming.

“Okay, uncle. I didn’t know this because it was my first time coming here. Can we just go back?”

“huh. I’ve remembered her face, so don’t walk away.”

“Write.”

I used to talk And reflexively, he almost made fun of her mouth, and he barely endured it. Fortunately, Hail stopped her and went back to her shop.

Anyway, it looks like things are over. I turned to go back to where Aiden was.

And creepy.

I had goosebumps all over my body.

As I turned around, my eyes met the people who were watching me carefully. It doesn’t matter whether it’s in a store, on the street, or wherever.

‘···I remember that there is no horror in the game genre.’

He didn’t seem to be looking at me just because he was an outsider.

It’s very annoying that, despite our eye contact, he didn’t look away in a hurry and started doing what he was doing naturally.

I rubbed my chicken thighs. I don’t think this is the level of terrifying? There seems to be not one or two things to be careful about.

When I went back to where I was, I saw them talking to each other and waiting. Aiden, who was sitting on the suitcase, turned her head.

“Mr. Jihan. Where have you been?”

I pointed to structures that were particularly conspicuous on the street.

“I couldn’t stand it because I saw something strange over there.”

“Anyway. I’ll guide you later, so be patient. Our house has to go this way.”

As Aiden, who came down from the carrier, walked ahead, Park Noah and Arwell followed along as if they had been there before.

uhm. It’s in the opposite direction to the respawn area. Movement distance increased.

I looked around the street and approached Noah Park. Park Noah looked at me.

“Can I not greet the people who live here?”

“Greetings. Who have you met?”

“…that’s not it. You said you went to the tower before. I feel like I’m friendly with the people here.”

“I’ll do it later, okay? It’s not like I can’t do it right now.”

Did you turn around too much? Park Noah didn’t seem to care much. She didn’t even want to ask again, so she quietly followed the conversation to the end.

After walking another ten minutes or so, Aiden stopped.

“This is where the Aiden family lives on the 25th floor.”

Big. really big It was safe to say that the house that Aiden guided to was a mansion.

Whoa! Soon the door that had been firmly closed began to open automatically. Inside, I could see people in suits standing in an orderly fashion. They are all dressed in armor.

“miss. Did you come?”

A well-dressed middle-aged woman waiting behind the door greeted Aiden. Her aunt turned to us and she nodded at us as well.

“For the guests…, ah. It’s Noah and Arwell.”

“It’s been a while. old lady.”

“Long time no see.”

Park Noah and Arwell exchanged greetings with each other whether they were spherical or not. I was standing in the middle of it. Aiden asked, looking at the back of Auntie.

“What about your mother and father?”

“I thought something was going to happen, so I went upstairs. You will probably come back tomorrow.”

“Hmm. What else is going on?”

“Recently, there have been many cases of disappearances of wizards, right? Perhaps it is because of that.”

Aiden nodded as if he understood. He said he had received a request earlier, so there is no way he would not know.

The current ‘Corrupted Hero’ scenario has passed the clearing period to some extent. It was a case that had spread so much that even aspiring heroes knew it before, so the seriousness must have grown even more now. However, Mika Beatrice was aware of the appearance of Drakhan, so there was no problem in clearing it.

‘In the original work, even if the existence of the event was neglected, it was handled naturally by others…’

As long as it’s on hardcore difficulty, it would be better for me to directly intervene and remove the variable. You also get special rewards.

Although stabbed, Beatrice, who has some sense of guilt, is unlikely to refuse the request to accompany her.

“old lady. I will guide you to their room.”

“Yes, I understand. The three of you, please follow me.”

Leaving Aiden behind, we walked behind the lady. When I opened another door inside the house and entered the house, the inside caught my eye. The marble floor was decorated with a calming impression of the interior.

uh How does a house show up a new hallway every time you turn a corner?

With her eyes busy rolling her eyes here and there, the old woman opened the door. Inside, it was a simple and neat environment, with a large bed for two to lie down on, and no other decorations.

“I think the two of you should share this room.”

Noah Park and Arwell entered the room. Now, the woman’s gaze turned to the rest of me.

“I think I’m seeing him for the first time.”

“Oh, my name is Seo Ji-han.”

“Nice to meet you. What’s Jihan’s relationship with you?”

Then he glances at me from top to bottom. Somehow, it felt like I was being reviewed, so I was unnecessarily nervous.

“Friend? just friends?”

“Hmmm…, ah!”

The old woman looked at me blankly, and then immediately bowed her head as if recognizing what she had done.

“sorry. I made a mistake. It’s the first time that a young lady has brought a man her age, so I don’t know…”

“Oh, no…”

I hesitated and waved my hand.

shit. uncomfortable! I wish I could take you to my room soon.

Fortunately, there was no further conversation and we were guided to a nearby guest room. It is a structure unlike any other. More than that, as I passed by, I saw that there were still many rooms like this. Once again, he realizes the wealth of the Aiden family.

‘I can see why other wizards are trying to make a bill.’

It was because the size of the Congo water that sometimes falls was enormous.

smart. As I was putting down my bag and organizing my luggage, I heard a knock. The door slowly opened and Aiden was seen through the crack in the door.

“Can I come in?”

“Uh, why?”

“I thought you had everything sorted out.”

Aiden came in with the door open and quickly changed into plain clothes. A dark blue sleeveless shirt that reveals his white shoulders, and that quirky one is culottes? Anyway, wearing those things—.

Then, suddenly, I felt a sense of déjà vu. Who do you think was wearing that outfit? I don’t know if it’s because of my mood, but I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere.

Aiden looks at me with his red eyes while recollecting. But why are those eyes so strange? Suddenly, the word possessiveness that Choi Ye-chan once spoke of came to mind.

Aiden asked, gently touching the collar of his shirt.

“how about it. Does this dress suit you?”

“···yes. Does it suit you?”

“Heh, I’m glad. Let’s not stand so far away, shall we? I will show you this street.”

“Uh, yes.”

“Then I’ll wait for you, so I’m going to clean up and come out~”

Perhaps the words that fit him felt so good, Aiden raised the tone of his voice and closed the door.

All alone in the room, I made a sound similar to a sigh.

that clothes. Is that what Astiel was wearing?

In the ‘103rd Tower’, day and night exist even inside the tower. As time passes, the magic of the sun floating in the sky falls and the moon rises. For that moment, it is similar to the outside.

Aiden’s mansion was quiet when the lights went out. Noah Park and Arwell were sleeping soundly in bed.

Amid the sound of breathing, my chest, which had been constantly moving up and down, stopped. Park Noah slowly opened her eyes and looked at Ar Well, who was sleeping next to her. It was clear that he would not wake up even if he moved because he was asleep.

slurp. Park Noah got up quietly and changed from her pajamas to clothes for going out. She then went out of her door without showing her favor after she put on her thin coat. It was clear that she wanted to move without being noticed by others.

‘···I knew it would be like this.’

Seo Ji-han, who was sitting in the hallway, was watching the scene from start to finish. It was exhausting to walk around with Aiden all day, but it is worthwhile to wait patiently with a shabby cloak on. Seo Ji-han followed Park No-ah while being careful about the sound of footsteps.

Chunkyung.

Noah Park opened the window in the hallway and jumped outside. She was quite tall, but the moment she landed, she lowered her body like a cat and made no sound.

Noah Park looked around and ran

towards the wall . Outside of the mansion, there were swordsmen in suits to protect them from intrusion, but no one had a sense of agility enough to notice Park Noah’s movement.

‘It’s faster than I thought.’

It was obvious that he would miss it. Seo Ji-han started moving quickly, even if it took a little risk.

As I jumped out of the window, I heard grass growing on the floor and the rustling sound. The swordsman with the most sensitive sense in the area looked at it, but by that time, Seo Ji-han, who was already in stealth, had passed.

‘Whoa….’

As I climbed the fence, I saw Noah Park heading towards the respawn area as expected.

‘It’s ominous.’

What Seo Ji-han wanted to check in the ‘Respawn’ area was whether the respawn was applied to herself or Park Noah, but there was one thing that took priority.

It was whether or not Park Noah had already undergone a respawn.

‘The sudden increase in ability level is the only thing I know.’

In the original story, if Noah Park suffered death and respawned, instead of being affected by erosion, she revived with all stats increased. The more it repeats, the deeper the effect of erosion, but the higher the ability level, the greater the structure.

If the enemy’s power is too strong to proceed with the game, it seems to have been balanced to grow in this way, but it is a setting that is only difficult in Seo Ji-han’s current situation.

If Noah Park really died and became stronger, the next respawn would take at least ’90’ days.

‘I don’t think I’ll ever get there…’

So far, from my experience, it is not recommended to make hasty judgments. In an extreme case, since that ‘Olivia Roa’ is essentially a villain, he could have put Noah Park to sleep and killed him in the name of helping her train.

Park Noah walked on a dark road. She was only a handful of lights even when the streetlight was on on the way.

It was possible to notice the presence of Seo Ji-han slowly, but the ‘shabby cloak’ had already been strengthened once with [Mana Conversion].

If it was Seo Ji-han in the past, there would have been no chin to ‘Enchant’ reinforcement, but now there was no difficulty. Thanks to that, even running around like before, consumed less mana.

‘What?’

However, Noah Park turned the road on the way. It’s the opposite of the respawn area. I wondered if I had been caught, but there was no sign of that at all. Noah Park entered the building opposite.

‘···What is that, over there?’

Not a shop. If that was the case, there would be no way to know what kind of building it was. Seo Ji-han quietly followed Park Noah into the building. And at the sight he saw, he smiled involuntarily.

‘her.’

Hopefully, it will be something like this.

You can see the high stairs, the coarse but formal altar, the bizarre ornaments hanging around it, and the familiar people sitting looking up from the bottom.

“I’m here.”

“Oh oh···. You are here.”

When Noah Park appeared, the followers turned to her and looked at her with envy. And Noah Park, who was standing at the top of the stairs, came down to meet her.

“Noah. You came back pretty quickly.”

“I have work to come.”

It was Olivia Roa who spoke friendly.

‘···I will turn.’

Seo Ji-han, who understood the situation, began to have a throbbing head.

The reason why Park Noah became strong in that short time was simple. And the hostile attitude of the followers.

They didn’t prevent outsiders from accessing the respawn area. It just prevented other people from getting close to this altar.

I don’t know what causality happened, but the current followers were clearly dedicating ‘faith’ beyond ‘helping’ to Park Noah.

The biggest problem above all.

····This situation is one of the ‘bad ending’ routes.
