Neo looked at the old man and said, "What will they do when they have the Tower?" Sev took a sip slowly as he savored its taste. “The tower holds the infinite source of Divine Energy. What would one do if they had access to an infinite amount of something that is so dangerous that it was sealed away?” Neo was silent as he could imagine what would happen if something like that happened. “Cataclysm.” He closed his eyes as he tried controlling the divine energy around him, but couldn't. He opened his eyes as he looked at Sev, who chuckled when he saw him doing that, and said, "You need to clear the trial before controlling the energy on that floor." Neo nodded in comprehension as otherwise this would be too easy and even with his luck, it shouldn’t be possible. Neo sipped the tea and asked, "What about you, Senior Sev?" Sev knew what Neo was asking about and just returned a smile in return as he said, "I'm too old for that, and such a thing was never my desire." Blaze’s eyes fla
Those missing memories made him feel weird, like an invisible itch which made him want to scratch but couldn't get rid of it. {The Tower gave me a low blow.} ‘Hmm? What for?’ {For being not in contact with it for a week.} '…’ {Good thing that my memories were sealed, otherwise a headless corpse would’ve been decorating the floor.} Phew!* Blaze stretched his muscles as he walked toward the door adjacent to the secret room and slowly opened it. He sneaked in and found a winged person sitting on a throne, dozing off. Blaze started forming a spear, this time he didn't activate the skill and tried using the Nether Energy to form the spear. It took him over a minute, but was unsuccessful. {Son of a …, let's try this later.} After saying this, a spear formed instantly, and he used [Inspect] on the boss of the floor. [Name: Aurelius, the Thief Punisher. Race: Celestial Rank : 1st Stage Evolution. Level: 30 Health: 225,000/225,000 Divine Energy : 12,000/12,000 Attack: 2,000~
Neo looked at the golden sphere and muttered, "So the Celestial race drops golden essence spheres?" But then denied himself as he felt that was unlikely because he fought with the monster during the formation stabilization. Still, he had no proof to know that unless he killed a real celestial race member. {Let's go, staying here is not helping with this weakened buff.} Neo did as he left the floor and teleported back to the Nexus Chamber. Leaving everything to the side, the first thing he did was to leave the Inn as the inn owner might make a fuss as he only booked the room for a single day. Neo left the inn and entered an alley before going back to the chamber. He laid down on his bed and went directly to sleep, missing an extra being in the chamber. … After sleeping for over what felt like an eternity to Neo, he groggily opened his eye and saw his view clouded or covered to be exact as a little creature was sitting on his nose. Neo rubbed his eyes, which made the creature flew
Two beauties were sitting around a table in the restaurant, bathed in the warm glow of candlelight. Their eyes sparkled with mirth as they chatted and laughed over plates of delicately arranged food. The soft strains of music in the background seem to accentuate their graceful movements, and their laughter rings out like a chorus of birdsong. One of them was laughing, while the other only had a smile on her face. The former beauty was petite and delicate, with long hair that fell into waves of honey gold. She wore a simple yet elegant dress that hugged her curves in all the right places, and her skin had a radiant glow that made her look almost ethereal. Her smile was bright and warm, and her eyes were warm and inviting brown. But she held no torch to the second one, who was tall and willowy, with skin like porcelain and hair as black as midnight. Her features were sharp and striking, and she wore a fitted red dress that accentuated her curves. Her eyes are a deep, ice-cold blue wit
Elias contemplated over what Myra said for a long time before his smile returned, and he said, "I'll handle this. Now tell me what happened next." Myra nodded, she had complete faith in his grandpa and continued telling how they tried again and again, but they couldn't win against that endless horde of monsters. Hopeless and tired, they went back to the inn and decided to try one last time before asking for help. Then she told him that Mira met a guy, and she took over from there. She stated how she found Neo dealing with the floor monster as if it was nothing but a joke, and when she checked him with [Inspect.] He attacked without even looking in her direction. Elias was surprised to hear about this “Neo.” He must have left a deep impression on the girls for them to speak about him like he’s invincible. After which the girls told him about asking for his help and how he single-handedly destroyed every monster that was in the Hell level
{This sucks. I'll have to use that knife again.} Although the power it gave was too good, he still couldn't handle the kickback of it. Neo thought about it and decided to see if he could make do with half the power and see how much it would take to kill it. He treaded forward carefully, there was a settlement, a broken down city, in sight. There were some monsters. Neo made quick work of them, he found that they have the same essence spheres as the monsters in the Ascension Tower. {Must be special to the floor bosses.} ‘Twin Towers specialty.’ Neo sneaked into the city. He found it was filled with monsters that rampaged through the city and there were nothing but ruins here. He moved around to spot the boss, but no luck, and 2 hours were in. "Not here." Neo left the city, and soon another city came into sight. This one was also in ruins, but it was bigger than the one he passed through. After entering this one, he moved
The battle remained ongoing for a while now and Blaze had chipped away two thirds of the monster’s health and received wounds from it as well. The shield wasn’t able to defend every attack completely, and the Nether energy that was making things worse in his body, was also the cause. Bang* A huge hammer hit the monster in its face as it moved back a little. Blaze put the hammer over his shoulder with the golden sword in his other hand, thrumming with blue light. "This guy sure is tough." Blaze said as he looked at the one-eyed monster, as the other eye became useless because of him. But it didn't discourage him as he kept on fighting and swung the hammer again. This time it was the axe side, the target was its face again. The monster had also become more alert. It used its claw to strike the hammer and send Blaze away. 'It's ready.' He slid back and stabilized himself by plunging the hammer (axe side) into the ground. "Well then, nice knowing you. Ugly." Roar* The monster roa
Blaze moved around as he dodged the attack while making his blades sharper and more powerful with the surrounding Nether, but this time the Nether was directly absorbed by them and not through his body, making him not suffer the pain and damage again. He attacked the demon and the slash this time was a cm deeper. Roar* The demon roared and said something in a strange language, but Blaze somehow knew what it meant. "Insolent? What are you? A teenager?" He attacked again as the cut was a little deeper now, but its regeneration was too powerful, as it would regenerate as fast as it was wounded. "This is going nowhere." Blaze said and took out the Soul Reaver. "Let's charge this baby up." Neo got to it as Blaze put all the nether in the other blade and fused the two, forming a broadsword. He held it in one hand as he did a horizontal slash. The demon brought its gigantic sword from above. Both swords clashed, and Blaze was swept away to the other side of the hall. -500 His hea
