Stuck in The Tower

Chapter 221 The Helldying Kitchen party

invitation was opened, and Park Jae-kyung and I were sucked into the envelope.

It feels different from Portal.

How to say the invitation to Helldying Kitchen…..

Rather than passing through somewhere, the feeling of being moved by folding the body was strong.

For a while, a strange sensation continued.

[Welcome to the Helldying Kitchen Party.]

“You have arrived.”

“Uh go go go round and round.”

Park Jae-kyung acted tough, but he lightly ignored it and looked around.

Climbing the tower, I got into the habit of checking what’s there first when I come to an unfamiliar place.

“How come you feel like you just started?”

“It looks like there are a lot of people invited.”

There are not only NPCs, but also those who appear to be climbers.

Flowers and candles were prepared on each table, and people who seemed to be Helldying Kitchen employees were busy moving.

Some walked around with drinks and simple refreshments, and others checked to see if they were running out of food.

About 40 people appear to have been invited. There were about 30 people who seemed to be Helldying Kitchen employees, including the waiter.

The reason why it is not stuffy even though there are many people is probably because the space is so large.

The lighting, the atmosphere, and the scenery you would see at any social gathering place.

I just see my eyes

“Will our dress code be okay?”

“uh. I didn’t say anything else, so it wouldn’t matter? I have no clothes either.”

Both me and this guy are fully armed.

It wasn’t that there was soil on it, but it was a moment when I was slightly concerned.

“Hyung, there are people like us over there. I guess it doesn’t matter.”

Fortunately, I saw people dressed similar to us from time to time.

NPCs were often dressed up, but there were also those who wore everyday clothes.

In the case of climbers, most of them were wearing gear.

A waiter approached us.

“Customers, please put your weapons inside the banquet room.”

“Let it be. Is there anything else I need to do?”

“Other than that, there are no restrictions. For reference, the representative will enter during the gift exchange ceremony. I hope you enjoy it.”

When the weapon is put into the inventory, it lightly lowers its head and disappears.

nice now there’s nothing to watch

“Let’s go too.”

“Hehe. good.”

I naturally intervened and enjoyed what was prepared.

I took a bite of a cookie and drank a glass of champagne.

What is Jaekyung Park?

“Oh oh. Is this a good balance? What did you put inside?”

Enjoying the food almost as dissected.

Music flows from the stage prepared on one side, and a sweet scent that tickles the tip of the nose spreads gently.

defuser? Or is it perfume?

The invited people also mingle with those they know and talk.

A mix of music and small talk creates a moderately upbeat atmosphere.

I wasn’t too excited because I didn’t know anyone, but I didn’t intend to be active anyway.

There are very few climbers among those gathered here.

Most of those invited are NPCs.

There must be several reasons. There might be people who couldn’t come because they were climbing, and maybe there were only a few VIPs.

I was classified as a VIP from the beginning, so I wasn’t aware of it, but I pretended to be indifferent and listened to people’s conversations, so it doesn’t seem to be easy.

“After all, you became a VIP.”

“Do you know how much money I spent on that? Would you be surprised to hear?”

“You can even procure ingredients like me.”

“There is nothing where I am. It’s full of monsters that you can’t even use.”

In the case of NPCs, you had to spend a lot of money or have a cooperative relationship with Helldying Kitchen.

“If I had ordered a special menu before the 30th floor, I would have been a VIP.”

“Because I don’t tell you otherwise. Who knows, the higher the floor, the harder it is to become a VIP.”

Climbers had to order expensive menus on the lower floors.

The higher the floor to the right, the harder it is to become.

It’s a natural story. Even the same 100,000 points will feel bigger to someone climbing the 20th floor and smaller to someone climbing the 50th floor.

I’m lucky.

It’s thanks to Deokchun.

I sneaked up to the salad bar and looked at Deokchun eating.

A few looked at them curiously, but they did not stop them.

For no other reason, among those gathered here, there seemed to be no major problem as there were those who seemed to be tamers or summoners.

There was even a separate space for summoned or taming monsters.

By the way…

‘Isn’t there any NPC I know?’

I thought I interacted with quite a few NPCs though.

Not all NPCs are invited.

It just bothered me that everyone here hadn’t seen it, even passing by.

I think they are probably staying on the 50th floor or higher.

Would it be better for climbing if I open up now?

When I was sneakily approaching the NPC.

“It’s better not to talk to NPCs.”

someone grabbed my shoulder

big hands.

A man raising his eyebrows.

Although the voice was soft.

‘bandit? Yeti?’

The face was grim.

wild muscle. His sideburns continued into his beard, and his arms sticking out of his T-shirt were full of hair.

This alone would have made him think that he was not an ordinary guy, but looking at the clothes he was wearing, he seemed more dangerous.

The problem is that it’s most likely a guy I know.

because.

“Could it be… Fluffy?”

It was because the idol group Pink Punk was printed on the T-shirt he was wearing.

I know. Even though they disbanded, they were a famous girl group.

and one on top.

Because there was a die-hard fan of Pink Punk.

“Whoops. You noticed, Evileye. I’m a fuss! Ahahaha!”

straight away the consignment.

It’s not fluffy, it’s not furry, conscientiously.

Whether they know my inner thoughts or not, the fussy poses.

Did you even do bodybuilding?

Front double biceps side chests vary.

The point is that the muscles in the T-shirt grow and shrink each time the muscles swell.

Maybe I’m a high-level anti-fan.

My bones are already hurting.

It is clear that only Abnormal survived due to the cruel tower ecosystem.

This should be verified statistically.

“I made it using the camera skills Petit Gongdu gave me. In the equipment production, I made it with the flame skill and other miscellaneous skills, and even equipped it with protection.”

“Wow, that’s so sweet.”

Even when I heard it, it was a soulless answer, but it seemed to be happy.

Let’s see how strong this guy is.

[Ji Woo-seok]

-Maximum target floor: 65th floor.

-Nickname: Fusongsongi

-I try to shout it again today. Ping-k punk!

– Friendly to you.

-Has AAA-level authority ‘even if it breaks a hundred times, try again’.

-Possessed skills: Bulk-up (AAA) and 43 others

I narrowed my eyes.

Obviously, his authority level is lower than mine.

Even so, I couldn’t read the title or detailed skill information.

Doesn’t it mean that the object is not green enough to read all the information?

Indeed, he is the one who climbed to the 65th floor.

Even if you go out of the tower right away, you will be praised as an S-class hunter.

I don’t know what skills they have, but there are quite a few. slightly less than me.

I feel strange.

It was the first time I had personally seen someone close to the top floor.

There is something I want to ask. What is on the 60th floor?

Then, a soft cloud puts an arm on my shoulder and sneaks away to the side.

“You were just trying to talk to an NPC, right? It’s better to be a little careful here, as you might not know elsewhere.”

“Why?”

“There are several reasons, but the biggest one is…”

– Clink!

“Since when did Helldying Kitchen go back like this?”

Before he could say anything, he heard the sound of something breaking.

A loud voice followed.

It was enough to attract attention, and at the source of the noise…..

“Wasn’t it only VIPs coming here? I have a beggar in my eye!”

There was a man sitting in a chair.

He wore a big hat, an old coat, and even an eyepatch.

Even at first glance, he seemed to be saying, “I’m a pirate.”

If there’s something special about it, it’s that it’s an NPC.

Rough words and a subtle smell of alcohol.

It’s okay up to this point. You can drink and make some noise.

But what if the target being pointed at is my party?

“hmm? Are you talking about me? I’m sorry about that.”

“All right? I think I am your friend!”

“Did you eat something wrong? I apologize, but why are you a friend? It’s the same for each other as a beggar.”

“Have you seen such a cheeky fellow!”

– Quaang!

The pirate kicks his seat and stands up.

A hot temper.

Is this really an NPC? Although the charismatic energy pierced me like a knife.

“Aren’t you the one who quarreled? I don’t even touch the dog when I eat.”

Park Jae-kyung is also not ordinary.

He crumpled the fork he was still holding and frowned.

After all, this guy has been stuck in the tower for a long time.

I don’t seem to have any tension about NPCs because I’ve been living with Hegrik.

In an instant, the atmosphere goes down.

Didn’t you say that watching a Buddhist monk fight was the most fun?

But the first problem is that my comrades are on the fighting side.

The second question is…..

“Really? He’s someone I haven’t seen on the VIP list.”

“You’re a climber, tsk tsk. I will climb the tower finely, so why are you snooping around here?”

“Let’s look at the clown in the dress. Does that suit this position?”

That half of the invited NPCs are on the side of the pirates.

A few frowned, and those who appeared to be middle-of-the-road were on the lookout.

A fluffy sigh at the sight.

“It happened before I could even say it. The NPCs invited here are not very friendly towards climbers. Not everyone is like that, but there are a lot of people who openly show off.”

It seems like that.

I also met several hostile NPCs, but they all had their own reasons.

It’s the first time I’ve ever been ridiculed in this way for no apparent reason.

“I don’t know what others may say, but they have a perception that they are of the upper class. It’s difficult for NPCs to become Helldying Kitchen’s VIPs, so it’s relatively easy for climbers.”

“aha. It makes me feel bad that there are kids with poor grades on their stage. Hey, be human.”

That’s why it didn’t really matter.

One or two NPCs glared at me as if they had overheard my story.

Either that or not. His sense of privilege and superiority are the same wherever he goes.

“And one more thing.”

With an embarrassing smile, Musongi raises his finger.

“There are people who do things that NPCs would hate. What can I say… A self-respecting climber?”

“Are you a climber?”

It was a word that did not make sense at first, but the question was quickly resolved.

A pirate who screams and humiliates.

A man approaching such a guy.

Wearing a mask and a tight hood, he pours champagne on the pirate’s head.

“Hup!”

“Me too!”

The sound of breathing coming from all directions.

I was surprised too.

I never thought there would be a guy like that in the NPC.

“Once you drank, you should go to sleep or go home. what are you doing.”

“…yeah man!”

The pirate gritted his teeth and stretched out his hand toward the hood.

Although it was so fast that I couldn’t read the movement if I let go of the tension.

“Why are you like this in a happy place? I’m also quiet, old man.”

“You cheeky bastard! I would have decided not to step out!”

Hood easily grabbed his hand.

I wondered if it might be an NPC, but the information I could see through the authority was a climber.

[Kim Tae-jin]

-Top layer: 84th floor

-Nickname: Smilecap

-I feel good.

Information as limited as NPCs.

A true upper class hunter.

He flips over the hood and removes the mask.

His eyes were sharp, but his eyes were sharp, and the corners of his mouth were raised.

Feeling a bit dangerous.

“Because it has a happy face to stay still.”

“Keugh!”

Ignoring the pirates, he approaches Jaekyung Park.

Park Jae-kyung, frowning as if thinking of something, clapped his hands.

“Huh? Maybe you?”

“It’s been a while, Jaekyung hyung.”

Jaekyung’s older brother?

Did you two know each other?
