I’ll Be Taking A Break For Personal Reasons - Chapter 273
a hundred years? Or two hundred years?
I stopped counting at some point, but at least we’ve been in this Tower of God for over five hundred years.
But it’s not just about wasting time.
Each time we went through the trials of the Tower of God layer by layer, we had to possess characters from other worlds and change their fate of destruction.
None of them were easy trials.
As if living as Jennard in the world of Lazenca, it was not uncommon for him to have his mind consumed by the character he possessed.
Every time we lose a loved one, a family member, or a lover, we gradually lose our selves.
“Everyone has to go to the next floor ordeal… … .”
But even so, we couldn’t stop climbing the Tower of God.
We
have to save it.
Save our world and our precious people
…
Our steps, which were about to go to the ordeal of the next floor, stopped like stone statues.
“… … I don’t remember.”
Our world no longer looked like our precious people
.
Head splitting pain.
The memory of our world, where we had only lived for about 20 years, was engulfed in countless lives in the Tower of God and no longer came to mind.
Sudden doubts of the moment asked us.
Is our world a real world?
Isn’t it that we believe that imaginations like a mirage in the desert or like letters on paper really exist?
Blah blah blah!
The rift, once started, spread out of control and began to devour us.
Who are we?
Why are you climbing this god’s tower?
Pass’s!
At the same time, my body began to slowly crumble like a sandcastle being swept away by the waves.
At that time, the tower’s message resounded toward us, who were disappearing.
Tring!
– ‘Soundless Crawling Nightmare’ poured all its remaining divine power into the Trial of the Tower of God!
-The 26th floor of the Tower of God, ‘The Ordeal of Oblivion’ is changed to ‘The Ordeal of Nightmare’!
Whirik! Whiririk!
Rose vines stretching from all directions wrapped around our bodies, which were beginning to break.
“iced coffee… … .”
We were entwined in rose vines and fell into a deep sleep like babies sleeping in their mother’s cradle.
And then
.
“Mnyaumnya sleep a little longer.”
“Shiba! I won’t wake up when you say nice things!”
Udangtang!
The blanket that was wrapped around my body like a caterpillar flew off at once with a violent touch.
There was a ceiling in a corner of the room that seemed familiar to our eyes as we lost our senses from the sudden lightning strike and a beautiful woman in a suit wearing horn-rimmed glasses looking down at me as if pathetically.
“who… … Like an angry lioness, the
beautiful woman glared at me with her eyes shining brightly
.
“wall… … sugar? Sole writer? Is my name Yulsin Shin?”
“Hah? You still haven’t woken up? What are you doing! Give me the overdue manuscript right now!”
We came back to Earth like that.
To the world of a third-rate writer who doesn’t sell, monosin.
If I write a manuscript and it doesn’t work out, I’ll tear my hair all night and cut the plucked hair, and sometimes when my sister asks for it, I’ll look after my nephew Seong-yeon in exchange for pocket money.
Thus, a normal and peaceful daily life continues.
Among them, the most enjoyable thing is, of course, a date-like meeting with the older sister in charge of beauty.
“Good night sir. you write a pen Who in the world works with a pen like that these days? I have to transfer it to a PC later, but isn’t it annoying?”
“Strangely, writing with a pen sticks to my hand these days.”
“I don’t have any complaints as long as the manuscript is well received… … .”
Watching us spin the pens in our hands, the person in charge sighed.
“By the way, hey, why don’t you take out the statement that there will never be a hiatus written in the introductory text of this work? It’s already titled, ‘I’m temporarily suspending for personal reasons.’
“Actually, this time I wrote it with the intention of never stopping the series… … . Shall I take it off now?”
The manager opened his eyes as if he was worried and shook his head.
“No. For some reason, I think if I take it off, I’m going to have a funk without hitting the deadline. I’ll leave it for now.”
“Hey, you didn’t have much faith in me! Officer in charge?”
“Give me the overdue manuscript and talk about the word faith.
sullen.
“I heard some nagging, and the man is timid again. Still, this work is so good that even a webtoon story came out, so cheer up! Come on, I’ll buy you some meat. Let’s go!
” Briskly
!
“So good?”
“Meat is always the truth!”
If we had a tail, the person in charge asked me, smiling softly at us wagging.
“Daddy, are you happy?”
Yes, we were happy.
It was as if we could stay like this forever in this world created for us.
But we
couldn’t
. Because this world allowed
us to think of the precious things we needed
to save.
“no. will die You guys can never beat that goddamn commitment.”
I shrugged
.
“He’s got the power of ‘endless bounty’ as well as me! It’s impossible for you guys to win!”
“Oh, I’ve never heard of that. Could it be that Bountiful sister also suffered?”
The voice of the nightmare grew louder.
“okay! The vengeance-mad spirit of commitment must have invested the most causality in making this Tower of God! Why did he do that? It was in order to grow your divinity and eat it! Couldn’t a guy like that even measure your strength? This is suicidal! you’re an alter ego! Did you say you were a reaper? Bring Ilshin here right now!”
“Ah, it’s too late. The main body is already at the entrance on the 99th floor.”
“Shut up and bring the one god right now!”
Kwaddeuk!
The horn-rimmed glasses in Nightmare’s hand shattered
.
Whirik! Whiririk!
Chow!
The cradle-like world shattered as the nightmarish hair that had turned into rose vines wrapped around my body like a cocoon.
Instead of a beautiful cafe reminiscent of an arboretum.
Kieeck!
Those terrifying man-eating plants, the ‘roses that bloom at night’ that had protected me in my previous life, surrounded me with my mouth watering.
“Ah.”
I sighed deeply, unable to move.
“I don’t like hard play like this.” ”
Kill
!”
With a cry from nightmare, the roses all came crashing down on me all at once, sprinkling beautiful petals and incense.
***
Tower
of Gods 99th floor, ‘Trial of Fighting’.
In front of the doorway reminiscent of the gates of hell, there were three other gods
besides
me
.
“joy! Don’t be mistaken. I didn’t do it for you! Everything is only for me to reach the top of the world one day!”
Just like a beautiful demon king in a romance fantasy novel, the red-eyed god with huge horns protruding from his head grumbled with his arms crossed
.
Involuntarily, he reached out to stroke his hair.
“Destroy the wave!”
Then Samshin, now a handsome boy who is more suitable to be called a boy than a child, stepped back as if he had seen something dirty.
“Has puberty come…”
“Wash up and go. What the hell is that beggarly thing?”
“Is it a little dirty?”
North North! I inadvertently scratched my curly hair with my hand.
“Destruction! Destruction!”
Samsin screamed at the dandruff falling like snowflakes and took a step back
.
Swoop.
Lee Shin clicked his tongue and held out his hand.
“green onion… … Samshin
sighed as if depressed, but at that moment, the face of his nephew,
Seongyeon,
passed by in his mind
.
I held their hands with my left and right hands.
Flash!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
The divine power of the good god, the evil god, and the god of destruction that had been separated for a long time.
The three gods merged and became one.
I felt a tremendous divine power dwelling in my body and thought of the alter ego that had yet to come.
“It looks like the person who bought it won’t be able to come. I can’t do it.”
I thought that might be the case.
I turned my head to the god holding a spear who was waiting for us in silence.
Ichiho wasn’t the only one who challenged the Tower of the Warriors in my previous life. There was
another man. Although he was
less talented than Ichiho, he was a warrior of the Gayami tribe whom I had given his name to, but after more effort and eons of eons of searching, he finally reached the highest rank
.
“This number is enough. My god.”
Lee Ho, one of the gods who created this Tower of Gods, the new Seeker of Eternity of this age, bowed down to me. The Seeker of Eternity This is a previous life.
The
timeline
of the world where the only god was defeated and killed by the emperor in Hunter War, and Antrinia and Earth were destroyed. – Tower of Heroes 46th floor, ‘Trial of Void’ Lee Ho was drifting like a corpse in the seemingly endless empty darkness. How long have you been here? Is it? One hundred years? Two hundred years? Five hundred years? Or maybe even more? At first, he was conceited. Lee Ho had cleared the hero’s ordeal faster than Ilho, who challenged
the
Tower
of
Heroes
earlier
.
That’s why he thought he
would be able to catch up with Ilho soon. He believed that he could surpass Ilho and become a true hero.
But it was blatant arrogance.
The reason he was able to climb the tower faster than Ilho was because he had already reached the level of a master and challenged himself, nothing more, nothing less.
Lee Ho’s challenge was blocked in this ordeal of the void.
At first, I did my best to escape this place somehow.
He practiced as if his whole body would crumble, practiced meditation to see if he lacked enlightenment, and even injured himself by tearing himself apart with his bare hands.
But nothing worked.
As the name suggests, this ordeal of the void was swallowing up all of Lee Ho’s struggles with the void.
Lee Ho was in despair.
Was his bowl just this much?
“In Space Gods… … The One God said… … .”
His voice was faintly heard from far away.
“No matter how much you build muscles, if the heart inside you is weak… it will be nothing more than a useless piece of flesh…”
He was right there.
A great warrior of the Gayami people who climbed the Tower of the Warriors ahead of him. The only man Lee Ho acknowledged as his rival.
But I couldn’t find anything from his past.
Ilho’s steel-like body, which boasted about to explode, was now as skinny as a life-size figure.
It’s downright embarrassing to watch.
Boooooong! Boooooong!
“One billion times, one billion times… … .”
However, despite his mummy-like appearance that was about to crumble at any moment, Ilho did not stop swinging the dumbbell sword in his hand.
‘Ilho…’
Lee Ho couldn’t understand Il Ho’s behavior. For what reason did he not
stop
suffering
?
