Chapter 139 Moorim (2)
As soon as he returned to Earth, he met with Ashton. As expected, he activated the calling device to ask for his return, but.
Chak!
When Yoon-seok’s vision cleared, the agents around him drew their swords. It was because of Asura, who tagged along.
“Pet… no, it’s my summoned creature, so you don’t have to be wary.”
“I see. Sorry about that.”
Perhaps it was the first time he encountered such a creature, but Ashton quickly came to his senses and asked the agents to stand down.
“The duel tower is closed. All the challengers who were kicked out were handed over to other trials. Did it happen to you as well?”
“No. It was close, but I got on the last train.”
“Last train…?”
Phrase and ranking system, Yoon-seok briefly explained what he saw and felt regarding these two things. Fortunately, Ashton was able to understand just by asking a few questions along the way.
“…I didn’t know there were Towers elsewhere. I’m glad that Yoon-seok is here. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known that this change had begun.”
And so, their worship of Yoon-seok naturally intensified. At first, he considered it part of their socializing, but now it was a little burdensome since he knew it wasn’t.
“Ashton, I want to tell you something about that.”
Along with the distribution of people by dimension, Yoon-seok told him five challengers on Earth reached the 20th floor.
“…5 people?”
Ashton, who was tilting his head as if he didn’t seem to understand, quickly waved his hands.
“Oh, I do not doubt the authenticity of the information.”
“I know. You don’t have to explain.”
He could relate. Maybe that would be the case in the past, but challengers were now treated as heroes. It was also easy to obtain enormous financial gain and power to match if desired. But their identities remained hidden?
“…That’s why I don’t understand. Yoon-seok, do you have any idea?”
“I don’t. But they are probably far from everyone else since they reached the 20th floor, so we have to change our perspective accordingly.”
Money, honor, power, this was what ordinary people pursued. However, Yoon-seok wasn’t interested in those things as he ascended the Tower with one goal. Only then did Ashton look a little convinced.
“I see. First of all, I think we need to investigate them secretly, but I’ll refer to what you just said. Perhaps… maybe some of those who are already registered as challengers lied about their rank.”
Given Ashton’s speculation, Yoon-seok delivered the information that among the Earth’s challengers on the 20th floor, the person called Grape Jam was likely Korean.
“Korean… if that’s true, then two out of six challengers are from Korea. I’ll keep this to myself until it’s confirmed.”
“…?”
Yoon-seok, thinking that it was an ability for emergency purposes, confirmed the next Unique Skill. This one was a little ambiguous too.
{Decapitation}
Rank A — When using a sword to kill, a non-resurrection state is applied.
Non-resurrection? It was an ability he worried might never be used. However, Yoon-seok decided to accept it as positively as possible. Wasn’t there an ability related to resurrection during his power selection? Ten thousand challengers reached the 20th floor so that one might have something similar. Or, if not among them, he might meet an enemy with skills related to resurrection one day.
‘Then the final question is….’
First of all, Yoon-seok pondered over the last bottle. Now it was time to choose between the two. Would it be b Non-verbal magic} or {Metallurgy}? It didn’t take him long to decide as he didn’t think the effect of refunding AP would be strengthened even if he upgraded b Metallurgy}.
{Non-verbal magic}
Rank A – During usage, magic consumption increases by 10x for 10 seconds, and the wait time for reusing all skills disappear.
Was this the right answer? For Yoon-seok, it was an incredible effect. A handicap that consumed more magic? There was no reason for him to worry if it were used in conjunction with b Demonify}, as the constraints related to magic would be meaningless anyway.
Yoon-seok closed the store window and opened the achievement store.
*Dimensional Registration – Additional registration of one dimension of Seheranbad, Kilian, Moorim, or Earth. You can choose one when using a return ticket.
Price: 500LP.
It cost the same as taking another trial, but once registered, he could permanently enjoy the effects, so it wasn’t a waste. However…
‘Is there another way to go to the added dimension?’
