Minhyuk remained on guard.

Observing his gaze, the man from the Hulan tribe continued.

“Let’s cooperate just for a moment to break the barrier. I have no other business with you.”

“Tell me. How do we cooperate?”

The Hulan man pointed to the murals located to the left and right of the barrier.

Each mural was over 10 meters in height and width.

“There’s a concentric circle in the center of both murals.”

Minhyuk examined the murals.

Just as the man said, there were concentric circles drawn in the center of the murals.

“Place your hand there and inject magic simultaneously, and the barrier will disappear. It’s quite simple but absolutely impossible alone.”

Minhyuk understood the method of breaking the barrier, but something was strange.

It was unclear how the Hulan man knew this method.

There were no clues around that could have revealed such a technique.

“How did you know the barrier would disappear like that?”

“That’s… I watched from a distance as the Kyo-ryong passed through the barrier. It’s so big that it could do it alone.”

The distance between the murals was several meters.

Unless one was a large creature like the Kyo-ryong, touching both murals at the same time was impossible.

“Then you should have passed through when the Kyo-ryong did. Why wait five years?”

“Are you joking? What if I got crushed to death?”

To ordinary people, the Kyo-ryong was a much more fearsome being than the slaves of the magic tower.

Minhyuk’s connection with the Kyo-ryong was a very special case.

The Hulan man asked Minhyuk again.

“What will you do? Will you cooperate with me?”

As Minhyuk did not reply, the man continued the conversation alone.

“Fine, if there’s no answer, I’ll take it as a yes. Let’s coordinate our movements!”

Whoosh-

The Hulan man used a flying spell and floated into the air.

Then he flew toward the right mural.

He placed his hand on the concentric circle in the center of the mural and shouted.

“I’ll take this side, so you take the opposite one.”

Whoosh-

Minhyuk flew up and placed his hand on the concentric circle of the left mural.

“Follow my signal to inject magic. Three, two, one, now!”

Both injected magic into the concentric circles of the murals at the same time.

Pop-

Light emanated from the murals.

The magical symbols engraved on the floor also lit up.

And truly,

Sssss-

The red magical barrier blocking the path disappeared.

“Success!”

Whoosh-

The Huran man quickly passed through the previously blocked section.

Then, he turned to Minhyuk and smiled broadly.

“Ah! I almost forgot to mention something, but the barrier will reappear once a person passes through.”

Clang-

A crimson physical barrier had reappeared.

So, Minhyuk had to open the barrier again in the same way if he wanted to pass through.

The crimson barrier blocked objects, but voices could pass through.

“I’m sorry! But don’t resent me too much. I was treated the same way by the person before me.”

The Huran man’s words about learning the method of breaking through after seeing the kirin pass by were a blatant lie.

The kirin, who had lived in the Magic Tower for thousands of years, would only consider moving to a different floor once every few hundred years.

The Huran man had also been hit on the back of the head by another person who had arrived here five years ago.

Just like Minhyuk.

“You should pass through the barrier the same way when the next guest arrives. That’s the only way. I don’t know when the next person will come, but I hope it’s within five years.”

Minhyuk chuckled and replied.

“I don’t plan on waiting even a moment.”

“If you’re not going to wait, are you going to give up on climbing and leave the Magic Tower? I’d feel terrible if that happened.”

“Why would I leave the Magic Tower? I’m going to pass through the barrier right now.”

“How? You’ll never be able to pass through on your own. I understand that you’re angry because of what I did, but don’t push yourself too hard. It’s not good for your mental health. You’re still better off than I am, though. The bastard before me really pissed me off when he left… I still see red whenever I think about it.”

Whoosh-

Minhyuk ignored the man’s words and moved to the middle point.

Then, he took out two magic beads from his inventory.

He used telekinesis to send them flying toward the murals on either side.

The two beads simultaneously made contact with the concentric circles of the murals on both sides.

Then,

Sizzle-

The barrier disappeared.

Whoosh-

Minhyuk slowly and leisurely passed through the previously blocked section.

The Huran man spoke with a mix of surprise and embarrassment when Minhyuk passed through the barrier so easily.

“So there was a way like that…”

When he first heard about the method of breaking through, Minhyuk immediately thought of using magic beads.

However, the Huran man could never have come up with such a simple method.

He didn’t have any magic beads or telekinesis.

Magic beads could not be obtained within the Magic Tower.

Even if beasts were killed, they were all slaves of the Magic Tower, so they would turn to dust and scatter, leaving only the Nozcos behind.

And he had not obtained the Nozco for telekinesis either.

To obtain the Nozco for telekinesis, one had to defeat the Cron King, who wielded a shield made of rocus alloy, but he was no match for the Cron King, so he had tried to attack a few times before running away.

“I waited for five years… to think you’d break the barrier in one go…”

Whoosh-

Minhyuk simply passed by the Huaran man with a blank expression.

Then, the Huaran man opened his mouth.

“Are you just going to leave like that? You’re not even mad at me?”

“Why would I be mad at you? Thanks to you, I passed easily.”

If it weren’t for the Huaran man, he would have wasted time trying to figure out the secret hidden in the mural.

Also, rather than being resentful, he felt slightly pitiful towards the Huaran man who had been hit in the back of the head by someone else and had waited 5 years just to barely hit someone else in the back of the head and pass through the barrier.

“You passed the barrier in your own way, and I passed it in my own way.”

Whoosh-

Minhyuk left the Huaran man behind and headed towards the next location.

The Huaran man watched as Minhyuk disappeared and muttered.

From Noble mtl dot com

“There are some pretty decent people inside the Demon’s Tower.”

In his head, he recalled the conditions for entering the Demon’s Tower.

One could only enter this place after sacrificing the lives of 50 people as a burnt offering.

He recalled the faces of his fellow tribesmen who had been sacrificed as burnt offerings several decades ago.

And also the screams they had let out as they were burned to death.

The Huaran man shook his head and contradicted what he had just said.

“That can’t be true. There can’t be any good people inside the Demon’s Tower.”

***

Clang-

A curtain of light spread out from below the giant golden arch.

The Akara Dragon flew into the light.

And teleported to the highest floor of the Demon’s Tower.

The master of the Demon’s Tower stood alone there.

The master of the Demon’s Tower had the form of a human.

He had a neutral face where one could not distinguish gender.

And he was very tall.

He was more than 10 times taller than an average human.

He was at eye level with the Akara Dragon facing him.

“Barnak, it has been a long time.”

[I am honored that you remember my name, Patechee who governs the Demon’s Tower of the Snowfield.]

The name of the master of the Demon’s Tower was Patechee.

There were many gods that existed on the continent of Rania, and Patechee was a being born between a god and a giant.

“What is the matter? There are not many dragons who set foot in this place after completing the Rite of Echoes.”

All dragons undergo a special rite at the Demon’s Tower when they reach a certain age.

The Rite of Echoes, similar to a coming-of-age ceremony for humans.

[Do you know about the visitor among the recent guests who have entered the Demon’s Tower?]

“Of course I do. I felt a unique aura as soon as he entered this place. You call it the aura of chaos?”

[Is he still alive by any chance?]

“He is climbing the Demon’s Tower at the fastest pace since I began managing this place. He seems like he will arrive here soon.”

[Like this… .]

Akaradragon’s expression distorted.

Just as the red dragon had said, he had underestimated the visitor.

If he were to grow stronger within the Tower of Trials and come out into the world, he would become an even greater fool than the foolish Saltues dragons.

“Is there a problem?”

[He killed two of our kind. I also have a deep grudge against him. That’s why I have a favor to ask… .]

The Master of the Tower of Trials immediately realized what Akaradragon was trying to ask.

He wanted to eliminate the visitor within the Tower of Trials.

“Vanak, as the Master of the Tower of Trials, I can never allow such a thing. You may deal with him as you please once he exits the Tower of Trials.”

[It will be very difficult for me if he exits the Tower of Trials.]

“Why is that? Is it a matter of pride that is more important to you than your life? Did you perhaps lure him into the Tower of Trials?”

[That is actually… .]

Akaradragon was flustered in front of the Master of the Tower of Trials, who seemed to see right through his mind.

The Master of the Tower of Trials continued speaking with a gentle expression.

“Vanak, I am not reprimanding you. Regardless of the process, I am glad as the Master of the Tower of Trials that a guest has come.”

[I apologize.]

“However, I cannot grant your request at this time. There is only one way for you to get revenge on him within the Tower of Trials.”

A dragon who has undergone the Ritual of Echoes cannot enter the Tower of Trials as a guest.

Therefore, there was only one way to attack the visitor within the Tower of Trials.

“Become a slave to the Tower of Trials.”

If he became a slave to the Tower of Trials, he could wait at the crossroads where the visitor would pass and attack him.

However, he could not remain trapped in the Tower of Trials forever just to get revenge.

[Is there really no other way?]

The Master of the Tower of Trials pondered for a moment before speaking.

“Pitiful Vanak, I may be able to grant your request if you make a certain deal with me.”

***

Clatter-

Minhyuk’s machine gun fired.

Thud-

And the huge winged bull collapsed.

Swish-

The bull turned into dust and disappeared.

And only Nosco remained.

It was the last Nosco on the 8th floor.

＜Disguise Nosco discovered.＞

＜Unfolding Nosco will allow you to learn Transformation Magic.＞

He had obtained a magic that would allow him to transform into the appearance of another person like the Kunas using magic.

Minhyuk put the Nosco in the refrigerator to check what it would transform into.

The Disguise Nosco was a nose pack.

It was something you attached to your nose and then peeled off, pulling out blackheads and various wastes embedded in your pores.

Minhyuk checked the manufacturer and product name of the copack and returned to the rooftop.

Swish-

The scattered dust gathered and the bull was resurrected.

There was no need to be surprised.

That bull was not Minhyuk’s opponent.

It was the opponent of the Huran man who was behind Minhyuk.

A slave of the rooftop who had been knocked down once could not be knocked down again.

The resurrected bull also did not charge at Minhyuk.

Whoosh-

Minhyuk flew towards the next place.

And finally, on the 8th floor, he arrived at the place where he could go up to the top floor.

There was a portal here that led to the upper floor.

‘What kind of treasure will I get when I meet the master of the rooftop?’

As Minhyuk approached the portal,

[I have been waiting for a long time. Emperor of the lowly humans!]

Suddenly, a huge being appeared from somewhere and blocked Minhyuk’s way.

＜Discovered Dragon (Asura)＞

＜You can earn 240 hours of return time by killing the Dragon (Asura)＞.

The scar on the dragon’s ankle was clear.

The scar from when he cut his own ankle to escape the trap Minhyuk had set.

It was the black dragon that had attacked the Asdel army to take away Teidon’s magic beads.

‘Why is this guy out here?’

Judging from the message that he could earn return time, he was not a slave of the rooftop.

‘Anyway, it’s good to see you!’

Minhyuk didn’t care much about why the dragon suddenly appeared.

He just had to kill him and take the magic beads.

Clank-

Minhyuk loaded the Gatling gun and aimed it at the Asura Dragon.
