Chapter 242

242. God of Proof (5)

Somehow, I increased my enemies again.

‘With this, the number of deities hostile to me has increased again.’

Of course, even if this couldn’t be helped, there was no unpleasant feeling.

It was worth it.

The eyes of the evil god seen through the cracks in the cracked space.

The size of the power that resided beyond that made it impossible to guarantee victory, even if I was in a state of deification.

So it didn’t feel good to increase the number of enemies like this.

But...

‘Still, if I win against the evil god later, I’ll be able to gain a lot.’

Even so, it wasn’t too much of a stress.

After all, just being one of the candidates for the tower is turning the deities into enemies anyway.

You made an enemy who couldn’t guarantee victory?

If that’s the case, it’s enough to spur growth and develop enough strength to win.

So far, I have become so strong, and this will not change much in the future.

‘I’ll have to stay in the tower until I can deal with the godhead as much as possible.’

And in order to become stronger quickly, I had to win what I wanted in this < Proof Field >.

Compensation Elevation Rights.

After completing the upgrade of this exclusive privilege, which is still only halfway through... you

will be able to obtain a growth rate that is completely different from before.

So...

「You have entered the Sacred Ground < The Proof Field [Step 4] >.

Now it was your turn to finish all the < Proof Field > tasks.

[ .... ]

Since the apotheosis has not been solved, you should be able to clear the fourth task quickly.

So, I figured it would be okay to grasp the surrounding environment and achieve the clear conditions right away.

But it didn’t take long before I realized that I was wrong.

That would be too...

[What is this again. ]

This is because the newly entered space is a place where there really is nothing.

A space-like background that makes it questionable how it stands.

All I have here is pieces of glass floating as if wandering in a black space...

I couldn’t understand what kind of task this was.

But there was no time to think too deeply.

「A task in the Sacred Zone < Proof Field [Step 4] > has occurred.」

「※Task Description: Be recognized by the God of Proof that you are worthy of gaining power.」「

※Task success condition: Proof Prove your qualifications to receive power from the god of (0/1)」

「※Task Success Reward: Clear 4 stages Reward increase authority upgrade Mirror of Faith (SSS-)

」 will be.

And at the same time, a divine voice echoed in my ears.

It’s very clear too.

[I saw it faster than I thought. ]

A voice I’ve definitely heard before.

He turned his head without a second’s hesitation, and a familiar face appeared.

Clear eyes that seem to reflect everything like a mirror.

This was a being with a history of encountering once in the giant tree labyrinth.

[Challenger Han Seong-yoon. ]

Nothing else...

[Welcome to my temple as promised. ]

was the god of proof.

***

I felt it when I saw it in the giant tree labyrinth before, but the god of proof had monstrous power.

A divinity so deep and dense that it could be said to be directly under the ancient deity.

To be honest, I wondered if it would be possible to achieve that level with the combined efforts of a few candidates chosen by the top.

In response, I looked at the remaining duration of Apotheosis.

‘...At least until I finish the conversation, I think the apotheosis will continue without difficulty.’

Even if I had to fight against the God of Proof, I was confident that I would run away in the apotheosis state.

Right now, I have half the power of a god.

Of course, that chastity was so pale that it could not be compared to a godhead that had reached perfection.

Still, I relaxed a little because I didn’t have to be helpless by the opponent.

While doing so, the god of proof opened his mouth before he knew it.

[I must say that it took a lot of work to get here. Because of the causality rate, I made them go through useless procedures. ]

So, I couldn’t understand the idea that I would kill those two in the ordeal on the 27th floor.

...But even if I couldn’t understand it, I immediately understood why it was like that, apart from the understanding.

[ 27th floor ordeal. The contents are the murder of the administrators who contracted it. There are no other clear conditions...] If

the clearing condition for the 27th floor ordeal given by the Tower of Ordeal was the murder of the manager, I could understand.

[ Yes. ]

In fact, the god of proof was not denied either.

[The ordeal on the 27th floor... was a struggle with the contracted managers. But the two did not resist you and in the end they met your death. ]

[ .... ]

[ That’s just how it happened. Once you cross the line, it is impossible to go back. Here’s how to explain it properly. ]

[ .... ]

[ You did anything to become strong. But that’s because the other person was hostile to you. I didn’t openly kill innocent people. ]

[ ...yes. ]

[ That’s what’s holding you back. stupidly. Killing the administrators who cared for him must have made him very unstable. ]

I felt an unbearable shaking and immediately activated the Fire Dragon’s Eye.

In the hope that maybe all of this is a lie.

However, the result that appeared in the system message was disastrous.

That would be the case too...

「The skill ‘Fire Dragon’s Eye’ sees through that there is no lie in the opponent’s words.]

It was because even the skill of Fire Dragon’s Eye informed that the god of proof was not lying.

[I can’t believe it. But i don’t lie There is no need for that. ]

[ ...So you’re saying I’m really killing administrators who didn’t even resist? ]

[ Probably so. Oh, by the way, the source of the information is my divine power. I have the power to see the future by reading the law of cause and effect. ]

[ .... ]

Hwaryongan announced that this was also true.

In response, I opened and closed my lips several times.

Because this is absolutely unbelievable information.

But that was only for a moment.

Even if you are shocked by the unpredictable truth, there is something you should ask at this time.

[ ...I know this is the truth I hoped for. But before that, I want to ask you something. ]

Nothing else...

[Why the hell did you prepare to tell me this from the 11th floor? ]

Why did the god of proof want to tell me this information?

That was from the first time he saw me on the 11th floor.

Maybe there is another truth.

No, I thought so inadvertently that it had to be.

[That’s right, I didn’t want everything to go the way the tower had prepared. ]

However, the answer that followed was far from what I wanted.

[What’s that...]

He’s probably like that too...

[The 27th floor ordeal must have been prepared by the tower to completely get rid of your brakes. That’s why I let you know. ]

The God of Proof did not prepare to inform me of this information because there was another truth.

[Because it’s not very beautiful when something like a tower hinders the proof of someone like you. ]

It was the mindset that should be called the belief that he had as a godhead that moved him.

[ ...hmm. It seems that this has touched the planting of the tower. I can’t speak any longer. ]

But I wonder if he won’t give me a chance to calm down.

[But keep this one in mind. 27th floor ordeal. It is now up to you to decide what to do in that place. ]

The god of proof immediately looked at me as if it couldn’t be helped and beckoned.

[Will new beliefs dwell in you, who are not interested in anything but becoming stronger? ]

Subsequently, a sense of floating arose that was caused by being expelled from space, which was often experienced throughout the body.

[This must also be part of the proof. that would be fun I won’t wait for your choice here.]

And...

「You have cleared the task in the Sacred Ground < Proof Field [Step 4] >.

」 「

※As a reward for completing a task, ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ will be sent to your inventory.」

「As a reward for completing a ※ task, you will acquire exclusive privilege #D-0007 [Increased reward (1/2)]. As a result, exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increased compensation (1/2)] evolves.”

As I watched the banquet of system messages filling my field of view, I thought.

「Exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increase reward] has been obtained.」

「It becomes possible to increase all types of reward levels.」

「Unlike before, all types of reward levels can be increased by +1.」

Really If I had to kill the administrators on the 27th floor ordeal...

“Enter the common area on the 21st floor.”

What choice would I make at that time?
