"Pfft, Ray is right, you're insane, Zach!" Sean covered his mouth because he couldn't stop laughing.Zach's cheeks flushed. He also wants to show off his skills every now and then. But his arrogance made this situation worse."This is unfair, Mr. Brave Knight! Why should I fight you?""Player 101, do you remember what you just said a few seconds ago? You said, anyone!""I mean all the knights except you," Zach objected.Zach is still traumatized from his fight with the Flame Knights. The Brave Knight could not be stronger than the owner of floor -116, but he could also not be weaker than Zach."If you fight me, I'll give you my armor. After all, I've already raised a sword that hasn't moved in thousands of years!""There is no need for that, sir. I'd like some basic armor.""You can use it permanently."Zach sighed and rolled his eyes. "Agree!"Zach drew his red wolf warrior's sword. He couldn't waste the Brave Knight's permanent armor."Z
The pendant necklace around Zach's neck emits a plume of red smoke. The smoke created a vortex, which then formed the shape of a massive wolf twice the size of Lua's."Sean, come over here!" Zach yelled.Lua jumped on Sean quickly. To protect Sean, Fin flapped his massive wings.Lua is about to attack Sean and his pets. The newly appeared wolf pounces on her and they roll around together.Sean peered over Fin's shoulder. He dashed behind the Brave Knight. He seemed to want to help Arthur. Although Sean was only looking for a place to hide."Grrrrr...."Lua was confronted by a wolf with fiery silver eyes. They circled in slow motion, and their fangs bared."S-Serena? Are you Serena?" Zach's eyes widened when he noticed wolf fur that resembled Serena's hair.'Tsk! Zach shouldn't see my beast form! After this is over, I'll pretend to be one of the red wolf warriors.' Serena thought."Aren't you Queen Raff? Why are you here, Queen?" asked Arthur with
"After witnessing your pets' rage, they just look like toys. They are cute." Sean pointed at the magma monster."Because we're dressed in this armor! You've never experienced a magma shower, have you?""Have you?""In this location, I died. I gave my armor to the cute girl I recently met."You must adore her so much that you are willing to give your life for her.""Of course, she's my friend.""Just friends? What if I meet her and immediately fall in love with her? Is it okay if I approach her?"Zach cast a sarcastic glance at Sean. "Quick, find the heirloom stone first!""That must be love at first sight. This is interesting." Sean chuckled.Zach and Sean groped at the bottom of the magma river. Meanwhile, snake-like magma monsters wriggled around their bodies."What is this?" Zach discovers strange objects on the riverbank. "Huh! Look, Sean! There's a lot of gold in here!"Zach's hands are stuffed with gold bars. He took everything he could. Sean followed Zach's directions. He also
[Activate the language feature. Succeed.]'Oh, so this is how language skills are used.'"Did you hear what I was saying?""I'm sorry, I just turned on the language. Could you please repeat what you said?""You dummy! You should first work on improving your language skills."The tree man's speech is translated on a hologram screen, much like watching a foreign language movie. It's a little bothersome because Zach isn't paying attention to him."What is your level of language skill?""5%, sir."The tree man clucked contemptuously. "Increase your language skill to the maximum so you don't have to read the translation on your screen. You will be able to communicate with all creatures on your own.""Yes, sir. I don't have enough gold coins at the moment.""Okay, I'll say it again. My name is Kizzy. Don't address me as mister or sir. Just call me by name.""I understand, Kizzy. What am I supposed to do on this floor?""Look for at least one
"Hey, Daddy Zach!"Zach was approached by a young lady. He took several steps back. He was tense. Someone knows about his secret!But hold on! What did she call Zach?'Daddy?'Zach's gaze shifted up and down at the girl. The girl's face appears to be that of a teenager. Her body shape, however, is that of a mature adult woman."Daddy!"The girl was about to hug Zach, but he quickly backed away."W-who are you? I haven't had a child yet!""It's me, Daddy!"Zach's cowardly instincts have resurfaced. The girl was previously transparent, but now she is real. Zach assumed she was a ghost or something.'There is a world of elevators that exists beyond common sense. Ghosts, too, must exist!'Zach bolted, abandoning the girl. His heart was racing at breakneck speed. He'd never met anyone as terrifying as the ghost girl. Even though she is beautiful."Daddy! Do not run!"The girl had caught up with Zach in an instant. Even though Zach's speed has significantly increased. There was no way an or
"What? So, where did you come from?""I don't know either. My parents were the ones who hid me in the world of elevators before they were killed...""How do you know if they've already...""I can feel it, Dad. My entire clan was destroyed, and I'm the only one left."Lua's eyes gleamed with tears. Zach hugged her and patted her on the back."I'm here now. Didn't you say I'm your dad?"It was strange when Zach said that. He couldn't imagine Lua as his daughter. Even when hugging her, his manly passion could not be fooled.He immediately released the hug. Lua, on the other hand, drew his back and clung to him. Zach broke out in cold sweat while doing his best to clear his dirty mind.'She is my child. She's a werewolf. She's still in her adolescence.'"Thank you, Dad. You're all I have right now."Lua stroked Zach's chest with her face. The treatment made Zach's stomach rumble. His heart was beating fast in his chest."Does the human heart really beat this fast, Dad?""That... Sometimes
Zach caught sight of Lua's innocent eyes. He regained his senses. He threw himself beside Lua."What am I doing?" he asked himself."What's the problem, Dad? I thought Daddy was going to lick my face.""Enough, Lua! You are now in the human world. Human fathers would never do that to their children.""OK, Dad," Lua responded solemnly."I'm going to campus. Don't go anywhere. When I get back, I'll take you to look for an apartment where we can live together.""Can I come along?""No, you can't. You watch television to see how people live."Zach departs for college after teaching Lua a few things. He felt strange when he returned to the real world. It's empty and bland.Several girls approach Zach, including Nina and Lisa. He should be pleased with the girls' interest, but he felt nothing right now.Zach was excited to enter the world of elevators and meet his friends. He wanted to go on an adventure with them to the other floors. He misses Yuna
They kept sliding through a hole in the open ground. Their screams were shouted at each other and echoed.Their movements became slower. That means the land around them is flattening. A flash of light flashed beneath their feet."There is an entrance!" Sean yelled."No!"Their hands quickly caught the edge of the hole before they fell. They were hanging above the clouds.Absolutely right! They're now in a solid, touchable cloud!A vast ocean lay beneath their feet, with no sign of land. Several large fish leaped into the water."Take a look down! That's not an ordinary fish!" Zach shivered in fear.The fish below them are shaped like cute whales. When the fish opened its mouth, long fangs appeared, as if waiting to kill and eat Zach and Sean."Shit! Come on, I can't go up!" Sean swears.They both attempted to return to the hole above their heads. Their hands kept slipping and almost lost out of their grip."Sean, my hands are so weak. I'm going to fall in a minute!""Fin-"A girl's vo
Zach tried to ignore King SJ's words, which still caught his interest. Now Zach and his friends face a final challenge.King SJ and Queen GM stand on the throne, which has suddenly appeared. While Petruk peeked through the volcanic crater.They are still not permitted to seek support from pets, as per previous regulations.Surprisingly, Drake, who loved to fight, remained silent as he watched the three humans preparing to fight.Three mountain-like creatures appeared one after the other. Their bodies are made of glowing lava rock, and their hair is made of pyroclastic flows.The three two-meter-tall creatures were wearing plant-based armor. It wasn't an ordinary plant because ordinary swords couldn't penetrate it.Their eyes glowed like magma. When it opens its mouth, hot clouds emerge that can melt any object.Although not as terrifying as Petruk's form, the three creatures are extremely powerful. Because King SJ and Queen GM created them."Are you guys ready?" King SJ asked."Ready!
"Dark Humans have always been arrogant like this." Petruk made a shaky motion with his head.Petruk's body pierced Dark Zach's body in an instant. The dark cloud fragmented into a million pieces. Like black fireworks against a bright sky."Shit! You're dead!" exclaimed Tora.However, the small pieces of the black cloud returned to their original shape. Fatter and fuller."Is that your only skill?" sneered Dark Zach.Dark Zach is not afraid of anything. Because nothing can hold the darkness except another, darker darkness."Ha ha ha... It's just a warm-up!" exclaimed Petruk.Mount Merapi's pyroclastic flows became increasingly visible. Petruk's body is growing in size. Dark Zach's body is outmatched.Dark Zach will not be outdone. He increased the amount of dark clouds to the maximum."Are they competing to see who is bigger? Should I ask Master Drake to come out?" Ray arched his brow."No!" yelled Sean.Too late! When Ray said, 'Master Drake, come out,' the dragon appeared immediately
"Hiya!!" shouted the white tiger man.A beam of light cut through the darkness an instant later. Dark Zach broke through the white tiger man's defenses. However, the white tiger man man managed to breach Dark Zach's defenses as well."You're great!" exclaimed Dark Zach. He cast a spell, and the darkness vanished in an instant."You're excellent too!" The white tiger man complimented him back.The spectators rubbed their eyes in response to the sudden light. They were taken aback by the sight in the middle of the battle arena.Dark Zach and the white tiger man man were severely injured all over. Their bodies were covered in blood."Your blood color is red. You're not a Dark Human," said the white tiger human male. Because Dark Humans do not produce red blood, but rather black."I thought your blood was white," Dark Zach sneered."Alright. Let's put a stop to this. You have potential, one of us might die if we keep fighting," said the white tiger man."No problem, I'll kill you!"'No!'
"I can't accept your request," the white tiger man said flatly."I'm putting my life in danger here. I should get the prize I want," Zach argued.The white tiger man sighed. "It's not that I don't want to. But I can't. I'm a mountain guardian. I can just leave here. However, if you want, I can assign my son to be your underling.""Dad, that's a bad idea. I don't like the unpleasant smell of tigers." Lua said quietly to Zach."But they're powerful, Lua. They should be able to support me in saving my mother," Zach said quietly as well.Lua took a step back after hearing Zach's explanation. After all, Zach makes all of the decisions. She will only continue supporting Zach in achieving his goals."In that case, I should've fought your son rather than you."The white tiger man asks, "Why? Are you afraid of me?""Of course... no. Give me something as a reward if I can beat you. Of course, your son as well." Zach grinned.A few moments later, one of Zach's eyes turned black. The white tiger m
"Jaka.""Ray."Before the fight began, those two musclemen bowed respectfully. They shook hands and took a step back."Start!" The white tiger man exclaimed.They dashed into the center at the same time. They put their hands up to shield their faces.Their movements are almost exactly the same. Ray immediately kicked Jaka in the stomach. With his arms crossed in front of him, Jaka quickly protected his stomach.Ray lowered his head slightly, then jabbed into Jaka's face quickly. Jaka deftly blocked his face with his palm.Ray made a rash first move because he didn't want to wait any longer. However, Jaka was able to deflect Ray's attack.Ray was mostly attacking, while the other guy was defending. Their battle was already fierce because they relied solely on physical strength.The tiger men yelled the names of their competitors. Zach and his group did the same.Ray substituted judo for attacks. Jaka was so used to Ray's fist movements that he didn't notice Ray had tackled his leg.How
Nothing happened on Earth for a week after Zach received the notification from the world of darkness. Each country is still working to repair damage in various locations. The world of elevators can help to alleviate the human burden.A number of young people, including police officers and soldiers, changed at the red elevator door. Before they could become players, they had to pass a test.Because of Zach's recommendation, Harris and Ben accepted right away. Serena was the one who was testing them at the time.And then the next game starts...Zach, Sean, and Ray were walking to the exam room. And, unexpectedly, Nine opened the door to floor -101 straight away."Are you sure we don't need to take the exam?"Nine gave a faint smile. "The trials here are almost identical to the struggles of the three of you on Earth.""Doesn't everyone, then, need exams?" Zach wanted to know."Of course, they must pass tests. You guys were lucky to be on the exam floor during such a commotion," Nine repl
"You two irritate me!" Zach snapped.Thick black smoke began to emerge from Zach's body, heading to Black's neck and choking him. Silver attempts an attack by launching an arrow, but Zach easily catches the arrow with thick black smoke.Black's body erupted in a hail of sharp black metallic thorns. Zach could not help but take a step back. However, Black does not attack Zach back. He just wants to defend himself.Meanwhile, Silver had already drawn his sword. But Black rushed in to stop him from attacking Zach."How did you get out of purification? And... those eyes of yours..." Black appeared befuddled."Dark, stop!" Zach yelled."Didn't you see they were trying to kill you? No, I mean, kill us. You moron!"Zach was talking to himself in a loud voice. Silver and Black exchanged puzzled looks. This is because Dark Humans rarely reveal the original figure of the body owner."I'm sorry, gentlemen. I'm not sure why you'd want to harm me. B-"Zach was interrupted by Black. "I have no inte
"Urgh!"Zach's mouth sprayed blood, as did the arrow that pierced his stomach. He was curled up on the ground, clutching his stomach.The arrow had returned to attack him not far up. This time, the arrow was aimed right at his heart.Fortunately, Zach's hand quickly caught the arrow. However, the wound in his stomach weakened him. His grip on the arrow shook violently."S-stop....""I will not stop until you summon your darkness power," Silver said.'See... Now you believe me, don't you? He's after you,' Dark Zach chuckled.'Shut up and go out! I almost died!' Zach screamed in his heart.'No. I'm not going anywhere. I'm sure he'll use my abilities once I appear.' Dark Zach was certain of his words.'However, I could die. You, too, can perish.' Zach pleaded.There was silence... no response.'Dark! Please hurry... I can't take it any longer,' Zach begged.'You can grow stronger if you can get out of this situation, Zach. I'm heading to bed. Don't bother me!' Zach the Dark insisted.Sil
"Is there anything else?" asked Zach.Silver takes Zach to several locations where Dark Humam can be found. Zach had defeated sixteen Dark Humans using his strength and the diamond sword."Yes," Silver replied curtly.Silver is growing tired of waiting for Dark Zach to appear. Zach refuses to use the power of darkness for some reason. Silver was also unable to directly ask Dark Zach. Because Dark Zach would never appear in front of the official elevators, he thought.'Was it because I'm here that he didn't show up? No... I was far enough away when Zach was fighting the dark humans,' Silver reasoned."Why am I the only one fighting against the dark humans, sir?" Zach wondered."The others are all busy."Zach cocked his head. He was also confused by Silver's change in demeanor. Silver always smiled at first. But he isn't smiling anymore. He just doesn't want to look at Zach.'He has negative thoughts about you,' said Dark Zach.'Impossible. He's well-known in the world of elevators.' Z
