I Alone Going To The Tower

Chapter 204

Eyes opened.

I didn't want to wake up, but my eyes opened like that every morning.

You can see the clear blue sky with floating clouds.

But the last sky I saw was different. The sky there was black and red.

what have i done

I destroyed Eve. Because of that, a world was destroyed.

I am... … .

"Move!"

Someone taps my shoulder and walks by.

"What the fuck are you doing? You're blocking the middle of the street..."

I moved my head to see the man who had said that.

Miraculous. It's a cat, not a person.

The talking cat made eye contact with me and had a startled expression.

"Huh, huh! Look at the eyes, the eyes! The eyes that will stab people, very! Heh, these days!"

The clothed cat clicked his tongue and walked away at a quick pace.

In addition to sight, hearing has been restored properly, and murmurs can be heard from all directions.

It doesn't matter anyway I don't need it all, and the important thing for me now is to look at the sky.

"Who's in front?"

"Do not block the road, get out of the way!"

The annoying sounds of people ringing in my ears. Some pat me on the body.

After bumping into each other and taking a few steps, he raises his head again and looks straight at the sky.

"I'm going to see all the crazy people from broad daylight!"

"Vicky!"

Miraculous.

Cat, dog, fox, wolf. Everyone is dressed and walking like a human. I think it's a world where different races live. It's not really my interest.

Everyone who made eye contact with me was startled and busy running away.

Some women cover the eyes of her children and hide them in her arms.

No, what am I doing?

my face is so scary

I don't know if I'm good-looking, but I've heard a lot of people say I'm very impressive.

Is it a dangerous trade for children to see?

Well I don't know. Actually, I wonder what it has to do with it.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Baby! Who is there?

Behind him there is the smell of dust with the sound of horseshoes. Looks like a wagon has arrived.

"How dare you block Princess Elise's way! Have you seen such a reckless bastard!"

"What happen?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, Princess! There's some crazy guy on the street."

"Are you crazy?"

Well, that kind of story is going around. still not interested

Ah, what am I… … . It was as if he had left his mind in the other world.

why the hell am i doing this

"Get out of there right now! Before you kill me!"

'… … It's noisy.'

Eventually he looked back. Riding in the carriage are a dog driver in a straw hat and a dog lady in a white dress.

Wow, that's funny. Isn't this a world where all animals are equal? Are the human rights of horses pulling carriages okay?

"Huh!"

"Suck!"

The two of them, like me, when they make eye contact with me, they put on a terrified expression on their faces.

"Oh, it's an assassin! It must have been an assassin sent from the Kiora Kingdom! Get him out now!"

"Yes, old!"

As the guards with weapons approach, the crowd murmurs and retreats.

I am a dog... … No, he stared straight at the tow princess. Her face turns white like a piece of paper.

"What, what, what, look! You killer!"

“……”

strange. All of a sudden, anger rushes to the top of your head.

"What did you do now?"

I turned completely and looked straight at them.

"A killer? Me?"

Slowly raise her right arm and aim at the tow princess.

What would happen if you drew a Taurus on that dog's face and exploded a few shots?

I want to try it.

"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh

"Old!"

I really raised my mana.

Turn up!

Then a slender arm gently grabbed my wrist.

The power that entered that hand was neither strong nor weak, just the right amount. Not trying to forcefully stop me, but a warm hand as if hitting a naughty child.

My arm slowly went down without realizing that I was drawn to that softness.

"I came here just by any chance, but it seems to have been a topic of discussion."

It was an old man's voice as if he had heard it somewhere. I turned my head to look at the main character of the voice.

"Would you like to go with me?"

At the smile of the kind old man I was faced with, I was filled with emotions that I couldn't help but cry. It was someone I knew.

"Anton-senpai...!"

I couldn't contain my feelings and hugged him tightly.

Anton looked a little perplexed, and then he smiled and said, 'Yeah, yeah,' and patted me on the back.

"Oh, my lord! Do you know anyone?"

asks the tow princess.

"Yes, my dear disciple. It was never done with bad intentions. Please forgive the disrespect of the disciple even by looking at this old man's face."

"Oh, if the Lord Matthew said that..."

The guards retreated, Anton said softly.

"Let's go. There must be a lot of stories to tell."

* * *

I walked down the street with Anton and talked.

- Top lord! How could you not answer a single word of my words?

'… … Mi, sorry. I didn't really hear it.'

It was while soothing Ea a little bit.

Watching my expression change in real time, Anton also smiled meaningfully. He will also know that I speak to the homunculus.

"Dae-senpai. Do you remember me? We met on the 4th floor in an ordeal.

"I'm sorry, but I'm a first-timer."

Anton said, stroking his beard.

"Did you say it was the 4th floor ordeal? What you're dealing with is probably my alter ego formed by the space barrier."

"Ah... Then how did you know and find me?"

“I came here because my Homunculus detection magic felt the magic of another world. I thought it was time to come.”

We passed through the garden and entered the majestic Anton's mansion.

"Come here, my lord."

Oh my gosh. The maids of the Beast tribe, which we had only seen in subculture, bowed their backs to greet us.

At the ears of the animals, the tail protruding from under the skirt gently swayed. People with this taste like it so much that it's a sight to behold.

"Come this way."

As we entered the room and sat down, the Myoin in maid clothes poured tea.

"Thank you."

When I said thank you, the Myoin maid's ears perked up. Soon after, he bowed his head shyly and disappeared as if running away.

"How do you feel about coming to Erendel?"

Anton asked, taking a sip of tea. I glanced out the window once and answered.

"It's different from other worlds I've been through. It seems like a very peaceful place."

"Since this is the capital of the empire, it's natural to be peaceful."

"Oh, it was the capital. Then, is the horse tower here too?"

"The horse tower is thousands of kilometers from here. This mansion is my main stop when I visit the capital."

I nodded and took a sip of tea. This is the unsweetened tea I drank in a long time. A little thick is my style.

"As is the case with all the worlds at the time you visited, Erendel is not invincible. Troubles, big and small, continue to happen all over the continent."

"i See."

“……”

Anton quietly set down the teacup.

"You look tough. If it's okay with this old man, can you tell me what happened?"

"…… Okay."

I confided everything.

Anecdotes of meeting Royst, Minerva, and Winslow. And even the story of how I contributed to the destruction of Winslow's world, Macinatio.

I was skeptical right before destroying Eve, but in the end I did not ignore the dangers of my comrades and carried out the destruction.

The result, as you can see, was the destruction of a world.

After listening to my story, Anton nodded his head.

"Don't be so heartbroken. You didn't really destroy a world."

"I, really?"

"It will take you another week to understand the magic of space-time and the principles of the universe, so I'll give you a brief summary. All the worlds you see and go through..."

Anton continued to speak with a more serious expression on his face.

"It's already destroyed."

I shudder at the severity of those words. If so, here with Anton right now will be soon... … .

"No matter what the beings that twisted space-time do, the world has already been destroyed. The result is an irreversible fate and cause and effect."

“……”

"Rather, you can say that you are lucky to have witnessed the destruction of the world firsthand. You must have felt a lot, right?"

I nodded.

'Ancor de Antirs' collapsed due to the self-righteousness of Roist, Matap.

'Sorata' collapsed at the cost of neglecting and ignoring internal conflicts between humans and disasters elsewhere.

'Machinatio' collapsed because humans were too engrossed in peace and pleasure with advanced science and technology.

The world would easily collapse with just the smallest thing.

“There is one question that runs through all of this.”

"What is that?"

"What the hell is a horse tower?"

Earth and Erendel were not the first.

I understand that a catastrophe is about to destroy the various worlds of the universe.

However, there was always a horse tower, and there was a horse tower master. Can this be dismissed as a mere coincidence?

“I have to tell you something a little more fundamental.”

Anton said as he ate the cookies placed next to the car.

"The disaster is still unknown. Even our masters who have passed through generations have not been able to fully uncover it. We call it 'will'. We don't know whether it is the providence of the universe or the tricks of the creators, but disasters have a certain lifespan They are trying to destroy the planet that has reached and eventually annihilate it from this universe."

Anton's blue eyes staring at me shone brightly.

"What do you think of 'mana'?"

"...that, well. The source for using magic?"

"Mana is the power of creation. Originally, there was no such thing as mana in any world. However, at some point, when the planet reaches a certain lifespan, this phenomenon called mana appears. That is the omen."

"...what kind of omens?"

"A harbinger of catastrophe."

Mana is a creative and miraculous power that turns the unreal into reality, but at the same time it is the cause of disaster, Anton explained.

'Will' builds a system of disaster that will destroy this world using mana as a material.

Of course, as the mana spreads, an individual that quickly adapts to the mana and Awakened appears.

they are players Players use the power of mana to constantly become stronger and resonate with their will.

"So disaster and superpowers appeared at the same time."

"Yeah. If you compare the phenomenon in the human body, it can be said that a virus appeared and white blood cells appeared to fight it. It is common in any ecosystem in this universe."

Anton slowly folded his arms and spoke.

“And make me think that the vaccine that is transfused from the outside is Matop.

"Ah……!"

thank God.

At least the tower isn't the cause of the disaster.

"When a catastrophe destroys one world, it moves to a mana-rich planet to destroy the next. At the same time, the tower moves to a mana-rich world.

Anton said.

"Mana is used to call disaster, but it is originally the power of creation. Wizards are the ones who best handle the power of creation. If you're a Magician, you need to make this vaccine stronger."

"……i See."

I covered my head.

"Something is getting complicated in my head. I knew that the doomsday would come someday, but I never thought that the tower would play such an important role."

At first, I was confined to the tower and only thought of sucking honey. These days, I have a lot of free time, so I am doing various things, but hearing this fact made me feel pressure.

"Don't be too burdened."

Anton said as if reading my thoughts.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

"You must not forget the lesson that the 6th mage master, Roist-sama, tried to carry everything by himself and the world was destroyed. There is no need for the mate master to shoulder everything, and it is not something you can solve alone in the first place.

"Okay."

Anton took a sip of tea and closed one of his eyes.

"I wonder if the transfer of magic in your world..."

“We opened it to the public using the most active media.”

"Well, yes! Then you're doing great. Just do what you're doing."

I suddenly cried. The words that I was doing well sounded so warm that my heart fluttered.

-Really, Topju is doing well.

Ea's voice is heard. She was usually the one who didn't speak well when I was talking to other people.

- You saved a lot of people and a country, didn't you? The top lord who achieved this level of achievement in a short period of time believes that he will never fall behind other mate lords.

'Thank you Ea.'

A little, it feels like the load is lightened.

After that, I had many conversations with Anton. I had a lot of questions, and he answered my questions in a cool way.

Conversation with Anton was like a medicine. Little by little, the broken mentality was restored, and the immersion power that had been stabbed by a sense of guilt faded away.

As a result, I woke up late and became impatient.

"Dae-sun-sunbaenim, I think I should go back to Earth as soon as possible."

The remaining members of the tower may be experiencing some difficulties.

"If it's okay with you, now tell me about your ordeal in Erendel."

"Oh, yes."

Anton stroked his beard and pondered his thoughts. Excited, I swallowed my saliva and waited for his next words.

The ordeals of the masters were all difficult.

Royst caused three millions of monster mountains to collapse at the same time, and Minerva had to face the catastrophe of flooding that had already destroyed the world once. Winslow made the ordeal to kill the final boss of the world.

If so, what kind of ordeal will Anton face? It won't be easy. The fourth-floor ordeal with him remained terrifying to me. I should have died twenty-one times at his hands.

"Yeah, let's do this."

Anton's eyebrows rose.

why are you so scared

As his tension peaked, he wiped his sweaty palms across his pants.

"My ordeal was to be a match for this old, unfriendly old man."

"……Yeah?"

For a moment, I couldn't understand what he was saying.

"You don't know what I mean?"

Anton grinned.

"Congratulations on clearing the 6th floor ordeal of the Tower."

He put his hand on my head. Knowledge rushed into my mind.

The very transfer magic that the masters used, at some point, the 6-step ice barrier magic 'Frozen Aries' settled in my mind.
