Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 67

Chapter 67 I can’t bear to touch my person.

I picked up the hair loss man.

As he said, he lost his mind due to overdoing it.

In fact, towards the end, I think I fought with my mind half empty.

How much real battles and training do you have to go through to be able to fight unconsciously?

It was hard to even guess, but thanks to you, I know one thing.

‘It’s no coincidence that the balding man came up.’

Words and actions may seem lacking, but the body does not lie.

He was a guy who was ready to climb to the top.

If I didn’t have S-class powers, I’d be behind the hair loss man.

“Then, what kind of monsters are those who come up on par with this guy?”

Licking and Nyanpun. I don’t know the identity of the two guys, but I don’t think they have something amazing.

When I think about it like this, the members are all extraordinary.

The same goes for the guy named Lee Jun-seok who contacted me.

Oh Ji-hyeok, who somehow came to be in a relationship, is definitely an outstanding talent.

If it goes positively, it will be a big help.

Oh Ji-hyeok and Lee Jun-seok should be watched a little longer, but the hair loss man and the licking kitty must be protected.

At least to put you on the same level as others.

Even in the safe zone, you can’t make them run like criminals.

I searched for a solution and found my own way.

I can’t do it alone, I need help.

Of course, the target to help.

“Kilderless! I saved a hair loss man. I am not in good shape.”

Two guys who have great power on the 10th floor.

Kildereth and Rilka.

“Lay me down this way.”

A bed was prepared in one corner of the room, as if he had known in advance that I was coming.

The identity is unknown, but there are also what appear to be treatment equipment.

After accepting the hair loss man, Kildereth gently laid him on the bed, gave him potions, and connected the treatment equipment.

“It was overkill. Had it been a little worse, I would have died. There is nothing left of the body and mana.”

“Will it be okay?”

I asked carefully.

“then. Anyway, as long as I breathe, everything gets better in the safety zone. It’s because it takes a long time. I intend to go a little faster.”

-Uuuuuuuu

The treatment machine started operating under Kildereth’s manipulation.

The complexion of the balding man, who had been pale, noticeably improves.

“Leave it for a day or so and it will be fine. Until then, just let her sleep well.”

“I’m glad.”

“okay. That’s it. You have successfully completed the quest. As a reward, I will give you the elixir you mentioned.”

Kildereth pulled out a small box from her bosom, but I waved my hand away.

clever. good night. i want to have it too

But now I’m thinking of giving up greed for a while.

“If possible, I would like to change the reward.”

“Hmm?”

Kildereth wriggled his eyebrows at what he was talking about.

Of course, the quest reward is not something you choose.

It is to receive what has been given.

Even if it was a quest directly given by an NPC like now.

In the first place, NPCs are not subject to bargaining.

Actions that may be objectionable depending on the circumstances.

“Listen and see.”

However, if there is a difference between me and other people, it is that through Rilka’s quest, my affinity with NPCs has increased.

Even before that, Kildereth had been kind to me.

That there is some degree of sensitivity.

“Before that, I have a question for Rilka.”

“me? What?”

Rilka, who was trying to stealthily approach and get Deokchun out, blinks.

“What exactly does it mean that your affinity with an NPC has gone up? And that’s an absolute majority of NPCs.”

“There is a kind of trust! Whoops. How can so many NPCs do that? I’m yard-footed. The idol of the NPC world is this body!”

Rilka put her hand on her waist and said confidently.

Kildereth wiped his face as if he had seen something he hadn’t seen before.

“Rilka is a merchant, so he often meets NPCs on each floor. At least, she is a kid who roams around freely from system constraints, so we rely on her a lot.”

Meet the NPCs on each floor.

He said he was a merchant, so I thought it might be, but I wonder if he can really move around on different floors.

Come to think of it, Rilka usually stayed on the 10th floor, but she wasn’t always visible.

At that time, it seems that he went to another place and worked as a merchant.

“ah. right. You should take the next quest! You’re not going to do it just once, are you? I have no choice but to do it anyway. lol. Customers are waiting for you, so keep fighting.”

As if she had suddenly remembered, Rilka listened.

At the same time, a quest window appears.

[Rilka’s Request – Compulsory Quest (2)]

– You have successfully completed Rilka’s Request (1) and gained trust.

-She is always busy. Numerous NPCs are waiting for Rilka’s visit. Along with the requested items!

-Do you know? Will something good happen if I help Rilka?

-Yeti’s Tears (0/30)

-Eye Spirit’s Wreath (0/1)

-You can carry out other NPC’s quests because you have earned their trust.

-Reward: Odelto’s ring (B) Interest from NPCs.

I quietly looked at the quest.

It’s a quest that’s just as grotesque as it is.

The Yeti is a monster on the 24th floor, and I don’t know where the snow spirit is.

“Don’t worry about the quest. Since the business on the 10th floor is over, I will go back and forth to the safety zone on the 20th floor. You’ll find it soon. Please take good care of me this time too!”

“Uh hmm. okay.”

I shook my head.

I can’t get used to that guy’s shamelessness and mindlessness.

That’s it though.

have trust Hagiya, the person who came up to the 10th floor tore off the scales of the Hwagapryong, but it’s even more strange that I can’t trust them.

“Going back to the main topic, you feel comfortable thinking that we have trust. If the relationship lasts, maybe we can become friends.”

“that’s right. We are not bad people either! Those who climb the tower these days treat us like robots.”

Kildereth and Rilka added their words.

I know roughly what that means.

Because depending on each other’s position and relationship, you can ask for favors.

Shop NPCs give discounts, or certain NPCs give quests that are not given to others.

“Can I ask you a favor instead of giving up the Kilderless reward?”

I looked at the hair loss man lying on the bed for a while.

He’s a jerk, but you can’t hate him.

“Soon my friends will be on the 10th floor as well as this guy. Lick the crown of the head, cat punch. Have you ever heard of it?”

“Roughly, we have ears too. But the fact that they are your friends…”

“Yes. I am Petit Gongdu.”

spoke frankly. A fact I couldn’t tell anyone else.

Could it be that it was an NPC? Originally, I didn’t want to say it.

This is a proof of my trust. Furthermore, it was the struggle of a person who wanted to get help.

It’s because you show yourself what you want to hide.

Kildereth slightly raised the corners of her mouth, perhaps realizing the meaning.

“Ugh. your tastes are weird Are you a pervert?”

Rilka That guy doesn’t seem to have any thoughts.

If you really hit just one night, you won’t have any wishes.

Now that I’m in a position to ask you to stay still.

“…there are circumstances. I can’t let my identity come out.”

“Listen, it must be because of them. I understand.”

Kildereth waved his hand, chin in the direction of the commotion.

Since he knows that a large guild is attacking the hair loss man, he seems to have guessed the approximate situation.

“Can you help my friends get out of their comfort zone? Rilka you too. I’ll make sure to complete all the quests you gave me, no matter what. You can even write a contract if you want.”

I got to the point.

Climbing continues once you reach the top.

That you can’t stay on the 10th floor forever and protect the members.

Same goes for upstairs. Right now I’m leading, but there was no guarantee that I would be like that in the future.

It’s not because you go up by simply fulfilling the clear conditions, you go up by finding hidden pieces hidden on each floor.

At least until the members were able to protect themselves, NPCs needed help.

“Ugh. good! There is no need for a contract, there are other conditions.”

After all, this is a merchant. Rilka put a condition.

what is it Are you trying to reduce the quest reward? Or to run a private errand for you?

I waited patiently for her to speak.

“Every time I come to the safe zone, let Deokchun touch me!”

“Geek? Aww!”

Deokchun is frightened. The guy who sticks to me like a chewing gum. It seems I don’t like it at all.

“Deokchun, let me ask you a favor. huh? help.”

“Eugheh.”

Dori Dori shakes his head.

I can’t help it. I wasn’t going to do it this far.

“Special lunch box every two days. I’ll give you a one-time ticket for your menu selection. Buy anything you want to eat. No amount limit.”

I opened the shop window and opened the food category.

All sorts of food and ingredients lined up.

The special lunch box is great, but it’s full of food just as good.

Every time the scroll went down, Deokchun’s eyes moved together.

“how is it. call?”

“Ugh. Gueg.”

After hesitating for a while, Deokchun nodded.

After all, you are not an insectivore, young creature.

I don’t know what to do with the same mindset as Hahae.

I scratched Deokchun’s head.

With this, Rilka is done. All that’s left is Kildereth.

“Kkeuk! It’s the first time I’ve ever had something like this happen as an NPC. not bad. Just like him.”

He shakes his head and smiles.

I don’t know who he is, but the reaction is positive.

“I didn’t want to see the big guild guys install it, but that’s good. I’m going to have to step out at this point. Help me, especially this guy.”

Kildereth pointed at the hair loss man.

The expression is subtle.

“I will take responsibility for this guy.”

“Eh? you?”

Rilka narrowed her eyes, but Kildereth only shrugged.

“Oh, and I’ll keep it a secret that you’re Petit Gongdu.”

“thank you. Rilka, you keep it a secret too…”

“I’m afraid I won’t notice that much. Don’t worry.”

I looked at the hair loss man for the last time, and after saying goodbye to Killdereth and Rilka, I left the room.

“for a moment.”

Kildereth who calls and stops me.

He threw the object and I reflexively accepted it.

[Giant’s Heart Essence (B)]

– A spirit group created by extracting the heart of a giant.

– It has the unique strength and defense of a giant.

– How about being a great human punching bag?

“This?”

“It is a gift. go up Until there is nowhere else to climb.”

Before he could say anything, Kildereth snapped his fingers and the door closed automatically.

I looked at the B-class elixir and said through the door.

“Thank you Kildereth.”

I didn’t know that I could feel this kind of feeling towards an NPC, not even a human.

I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve received a favor without a price.

Scratching my head, I walked down the hallway.

The back is left to them.

and i

“I’m going to kill you bastards one more time.”

If I had any coins left, I would have been alive by now.

I’m so small that I have to take revenge on those who touch me in some way to get rid of my intuition, and I have to make sure that the person who touches me can’t do that again so that I can stretch my legs and sleep.

in short.

“You touched the wrong person.”

* * *

The point at which Cho Hyun-soo defeated the resurrected Lee Jin-moo and Park Se-hyuk and kicked them out of the tower.

Kildereth and Rilka, who remained in the arena, were talking with the hair loss man beside them.

“Are you a bit unfamiliar?”

Rilka, who had her head on the bed, looked at Kildereth.

Kildereth knew the meaning, but pretended not to know and looked elsewhere.

Unsatisfied with his reaction, Rilka stabs him in the side.

“Would you like to talk? The world’s Kildereth. Do a favor for a kid who has just broken through the 10th floor. Until you treat someone you don’t know? What a plan.”

“Nothing. I was just looking for an heir. The limbs must be intact to follow the training.”

“aha! Is that so? Heir!?”

Rilka nodded and jumped up from her seat.

Rilka grabbed Killdereth by the collar and shook it.

“it’s crazy? Don’t you know you can only choose an heir once? What if you’re a weirdo? If you’re an idiot, how dare you pick an heir!”

“I have already decided. Along with the treatment, I also infused some of my strength.”

Kildereth talked while looking at the treatment machine plugged into the balding man’s body, and Rilka, who was speechless, slapped her forehead and sat down.

“ah. bone hurts I don’t know what you were thinking then or now.”

Kildereth smiled and took out an ice cream and passed it on.

Rilka readily accepts it. It’s still a sullen expression.

“Petit Gondura. Strangely, when I see that friend, I think of him. You must have given him a quest, too. I bet on the Frostfire Sword as well.”

“no it’s not!”

“100 million!”

Rilka, who put a kick into Kildereth’s side, raised her eyebrows.

Kildereth trembled while wrapping his side.

Rilka sticks out her tongue, saying it’s okay.

Rilka, who sat back down for a while, wrinkled her nose.

I overreacted in order not to show it on the outside.

‘it’s annoying.’

Far away. Rilka chewed on the ice cream.

Reminds me of the guy I can’t see now.
