Episode 642: I came as a favor.
I pointed at Ophelia, Ophelia looked at me and the dragon, and the dragon glared at me.
It was good until I met the dragon and Ophelia in the mountains as I had originally intended... but...
‘I’m not in a good mood. So, let’s take it easy.’
Cook stabbed Deokchun.
Deokchun cries briefly and slaps away my finger.
Now that I’ve lured Ophelia in with my wit, let’s move on.
“I appreciate the news that there is a cult group in the east.”
“yes? “You met Jae-kyung Park for that story.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“no...!”
First of all, I got out of the way.
If you’ve been stuck for a long time, you have to push through.
Ophelia also doesn’t think I’ll just admit it, so she puts her head down and sighs.
“Marymulet, there seems to be some misunderstanding, but it is true that you are related to me.”
“Is this someone who is so extreme and ignorant and has no manners at all?”
“He is eccentric and has personality issues, but he has a great spirit and it is also true that he has saved many people.”
“It seems like a whim of a photon, but if you say so, then so be it.”
What does it feel like to be talked about behind your back?
Since it was said in front, it must be said in front.
Anyway, it seems like the burning of the mountain range was somehow overlooked.
After waiting for the atmosphere to calm down for a moment, I opened my mouth.
“You’re probably trying to go up, right?”
“How did you know that?”
“There is a way to know everything.”
Actually I don’t know.
All I know is that the Royal Knights led by Ophelia are climbing differently than the standard method.
Ophelia, who was slightly frowning to gauge how much I knew, soon shook her head.
Because....
[SSS-level power A small whispering light asks about your heart.]
[SSS-level power The eyes watching the star wink.]
Even with her power, it was impossible to understand me.
I also looked into Ophelia’s information.
[Ophelia Glett]
– Highest number of climbs: 94th floor
– Nickname: Godbless
– Leading the Noble Knights, a desperate tower strategy team!
-Has SSS level power savior.
-Possesses a miracle fragment of SSS level power.
-Possesses SS-level power: Whispering Little Light.
.
.
.
I was amazed inwardly.
Ophelia Glett. A self-proclaimed savior of mankind. At the same time, he is one of the most likely people to do so.
Unlike me, who didn’t know when to go out, there was definitely a way to go out.
‘All three powers have become SSS level. Moreover...’ –
Possesses the gift of a world that has escaped destruction with SSS-class power.
My power increased even though I couldn’t see it.
Seeing as she has other minor powers, it seems like there are more than a few NPCs who have chosen her as their successor.
Due to the hidden quest condition of climbing the Naya Tower, the succession rights are limited to three, but in theory, there is no limit to the powers a climber can have.
Basically, even if you exclude the powers gained through awakening, if you become the successor to an NPC, you can obtain the powers they have.
In a word, Ophelia is....
‘A person who is pushed by the NPCs in the tower so that she can climb to the 100th floor.’
I could see it that way.
There are various ways for NPCs to obtain new opportunities, but this is the most representative one.
His successor was to clear the 100th floor.
Rather than vaguely selecting a successor, NPCs will work together to make one person truly strong.
Because one strong person is definitely more likely than a bunch of mediocre people.
Besides that.
-SS-level power The dragon that watched the end of five civilizations (Assimilation rate: 3%)
It was clear that the power was given by the dragon.
The assimilation rate is still low, so it is SS level, but over time, it will rise to SSS level.
The guy who gave it to me must be the ancient dragon Merrymule in front of Bona Mana.
Now I understand. How was Ofelia able to rise to the top so quickly?
‘It must have helped the inherited NPCs move up.’
This is especially true in places where there is only one floor ruler, such as the 90th floor.
Because it will be possible to send it upward with the authority of the ruler.
There are as many as four SSS-level powers, including those scheduled to become SSS-level powers.
An item obtained by catching Chaos Fragments.
I don’t know what will come out, but if I’m lucky, I may be able to stop the chaos fragments.
Of course, if you get hit, another piece of chaos pops out.
After all, it would be wrong to bet the future of humanity on gacha.
It may be difficult, but I can only hope that it will handle itself well.
From what I’ve heard, it doesn’t seem like anything has been confirmed yet.
“I will definitely deliver this.”
Ofelia, who is quiet but carrying a mask and a letter, bows her head.
Thanks to you, I heard the news from outside.
In addition to things related to the tower, there were also interesting things such as information about large guilds and stories about a collapsed country, but it seemed like there was nothing to worry about right away.
After a short but informative conversation.
“If it’s okay, Evileye, please join us.”
Ophelia mutters while looking at the dragon.
While we were talking, a portal leading upwards had been created.
It would be easier if I just went up like this, but...
“No, I’m staying here.”
“You want to challenge the tower’s trials head on. “It’s just a shame.”
In a way, Ophelia blushes because it seems like an expedient way to clear it.
There wasn’t a specific reason for that.
Because I haven’t finished Adela’s quest yet.
Even if you go, you have to get the quest reward before you go.
Still, it would be a shame to just send it away.
“Oh, check it out on the way up. “They say there is a cult among the climbers above us.”
“You mean the climber-turned-worshipper? “How can you even have that much power...”
Ophelia, with an expression of open disdain, quickly nodded and took something out of her arms.
He seemed to be wondering if he could give this to me, but then he held it out to me.
“Oh Ophelia!”
“You shouldn’t give that to just anyone!”
“it’s okay.”
The Royal Knights shouted in surprise, but Ophelia just waved her hands.
What on earth is happening like that?
I didn’t know what it was, but it definitely seemed good.
“Evileye will also head to the 100th floor with noble beliefs.”
I just can’t go out and am forced to climb.
Well, since I was invited to the top, it doesn’t mean I don’t have a desire to reach the peak.
“There is a powerful entity that will block your path. This is about that.”
“Thank you for the favor. “May God bless those who take the lead for the hope of humanity.”
“thank you. The 95th floor is similar to a safe zone. Please open it there. “It’s a burdensome item to open right away.”
“I will. “Lead the Royal Knight well.”
“Noble, not royal. That doesn’t matter. then.”
With those words, Ofelia came out, said goodbye to the dragon, and moved through the portal.
Her followers also disappeared.
All that was left was me and the Ancient Monster.
“It’s clear he’s not an ordinary guy. “I have a way to prevent disaster while staying in the tower.”
“I have some skills.”
“okay. Has the purpose of coming here been achieved? Since you are not my successor, I cannot provide direct help. “If that happens, the system won’t stand still.”
I understand.
Even though he is the ruler of the floor, he can’t really control everything to his liking.
That’s one of the reasons I didn’t go through the portal.
If that happens, there will be a big burden on this guy too. I guess he just kept his mouth shut because his successor wanted it.
You can tell just by looking at his tone of voice that he has become softer than at first.
I glanced at the sky.
A space where night has come. The top of the mountain range was quiet, but I know.
That this is a sign before the storm.
“One of my errands is finished.”
“One is finished?”
I found out after talking with Ophelia.
The name of the guy here is Merrymule.
Is it coincidence or fate?
[The SSS-level power Eye that Watches the Stars is exercised.]
-Tsuzuzu
[Merrymule]
-Ruler of the 94th floor.
-Lord of the Dragon Mountains.
-This is a respected ancient dragon!
-What kind of being is a dragon that has lived for nearly eternity?
Merry mule.
The name is....
“I came at Lilka’s request.”
The 90th floor. It was the name on the quest I received from Lilka.
