Episode 161
The player's mission is to conquer the tower and protect the human world.
Tier 15 future top.
The mask and puppet dance began simultaneously, and the soldiers of the peacekeeping force clashed with the king of heroes.
Lord of men and Lord of heroes.
Amid the fight between the two monarchs, Saint Mary did not hesitate.
‘Oh, I see.'
I was confident that I was willing to face the humans without the slightest hesitation or hesitation. In the sea of blood flowing beneath my feet, I saw a monster wearing a crimson suit, spattering blood and darkness.
The bloody saint was there.
Sigh!
Blood-colored skewers rose from the endless sea of blood beneath my feet. A scene of cruel carnage befitting the notoriety of Vlad the Impaler, the Lord of Thorns, unfolded.
Blood-red blades cruelly wrapped around the bodies of the soldiers who were supposed to protect the peace, and the cruelty committed by Maria*) did not stop there.
The Lord of Heroes, Yooseong, was no exception.
And that was right then.
thud!
The scenery of the world stopped as if the hands of a clock had stopped. The peacekeepers all stopped their movements, and Yoosung and Maria there were no exception.
“Myself...
And in the still landscape, a soldier opened his mouth. Without heeding any laws or rules that bound that space.
“Do you know what decision you are making?”
[“Then you know very well.”]
[The Lord of Heroes replies.]
‘Lord...!’
In the still landscape, a message blocked Maria's view. It was a message from the Transcendent Lord, who was looking down on this game from high above.
At the same time, it was a monarch with a very familiar name. Also, the voice that resonates with the message.
“Are you going to give up your duty as a hero, abandon the desires of humans, and become a traitor to humanity?”
“Why am I going to destroy humanity?”
In the scenery of the world that had stopped, Yooseong calmly adjusted his sword of the winter night and answered.
“Then why don’t you prove your hero’s loyalty in front of us?”
[“—Why do you claim to be the hero of heroes rather than the hero of humans?”]
asked the monarch of humans and the monarch above monarchs.
“It is up to me to decide ‘whose hero’ I will be,” Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com
answered the Lord of Heroes.
[“Good, you hero who abandoned the desires of humans.”]
The human monarch and the humans there all opened their mouths.
[“Now we declare that the Hero has betrayed our longing and has become a monster.”] [
The Lord of Men declares in the name of the ‘Overlord.’]
[The Overlord deprives the Lord of Heroes of the name of Hero! ]
At the same time, an intangible whirlpool swirled and swallowed up the king and the saint of heroes present.
We gave up humans for humans, and because we gave up humans, the reason to be for humans disappears.
In this way, the hero becomes a monster... and
shameless humans will long for a hero who will fight monsters again.
[Players who entered the Tier 15 Tower of the Future
have given up on the strategy...!]
The player's mission is to conquer the tower and protect the human world.
However, the ending of the two players who announced in front of everyone that they were going to conquer the 15th tier tower was something that no one on earth could have expected.
give up.
“betrayer!”
“monster!”
Noisy shouting, pointing, and endless cries began to echo. It was like a mess, reminiscent of a press conference by a corrupt politician.
It no longer mattered who created this game and for what purpose. In the end, there were only two actors and the audience left on this stage.
Heroes and humans.
And clowns and humans.
‘I was not understood by anyone, and no one recognized that fact....
‘I swore that I would sacrifice myself to protect the world and repeat the same thing endlessly.'
“Why did you bark as much as you wanted? “No matter what you say, the world won’t change anyway.”
The clown monarch, who had been robbed of his hero's name, stood up. He doesn't care about people pointing fingers at him.
“Before I get to the top of Tier 15 again and crash the game and cause a tower break, why don’t you at least give your parents a call to tell them you love them?”
There was a king of heroes who was no different from any other time, and there was a saintly woman who could not hide her astonishment.
“Let’s go, saintess.”
And Yooseong spoke to Maria.
“Where are you going?”
“I’ll have to go try it for the second time.”
“Yes, but Mr. Yoosung is no longer...
—— a hero.
The Overlord, the Lord of Men, deprived the Lord of Heroes of his heroic name. He was no longer a human hero.
“Who decided that?”
However, before Maria could finish speaking, Yoosung interrupted her. And at those words, Maria took a deep breath.
“You can be a hero or a villain. I decide what happens on stage. “Not humans.”
Yoosung said and Maria quietly burst into laughter.

‘Aid you want to be a hero?'

[Re-entering the Tower of the Future....]
When I looked up, the humans were there. They were soldiers wearing the uniform of a multinational peacekeeping force directly under the UN.
“Why did you come back?”
A soldier armed with a gun opened his mouth.
“You cannot attack this tower unless you prove the hero’s loyalty to the humans. “You monster who abandoned humanity’s longing.”
It was undoubtedly a human voice.
I was able to realize it at the same time. The ‘overlord' who thought he was silent was never silent. He did not hide his identity at the top of the throne and go into seclusion.
A human monarch.
The monarch was everywhere and chattered endlessly.
Sometimes they were reporters, and sometimes they were people in power who were hostile to Yoosung.
“Hmm, I think you’re misunderstanding something.”
That's why Yoosung burst out laughing and then snapped his fingers.
“I haven’t abandoned humans yet.” Early on.] Spreading the power that ‘The Clown Lord’ gave to player Kang Yoo-seong.
