Stuck in The Tower

Episode 713:

Heading to Blue Hair Lake was not difficult.

There was no enemy that could stand in my way, because I moved through the sky and took the shortest route.

I didn’t even stop by the village.

This is a field with a village.

That means soon.

‘It means that it will be installed regardless of whether it is an NPC or a neutral NPC.’

It is impossible to know what variables will occur.

Since Smilecap was the ruler on the 97th floor, he was able to control the NPCs, but not here.

Fragments of chaos.

That guy is the owner of this place.

In other words, it meant that those here could also be hostile to us.

[Smile Cap]: They’re not out to get us. You can think of it as being similar to a normal field

[Smile Cap]: At least in the beginning.

Smilecap, who has already been here, said that nothing special would happen in the beginning.

Still, I plan to be as careful as possible.

It’s not that I don’t trust him.

“If you think about it, a lot has changed on the 97th floor since I came up.”

Is it any different here?

well. I feel like something will change.

As he said, even if there are no problems in the beginning, problems may arise later.

Well, it can’t be like that forever.

A plan was devised to clear the 98th floor.

In fact, it was simple enough to be called an operation.

Smilecap knew how to call the ruler of the 98th floor.

To be precise, I know the conditions under which she appears.

‘Looking for a girl. It’s too vague.’

Should I say that it is a being guarded by fragments of chaos?

Anyway, it was said that there was some kind of connection.

I actually don’t remember the name or appearance.

I wonder if there was a systematic intervention or the effect of chaotic fragments.

The only clues given were that it was a girl and that she looked to be around 10 to 15 years old.

They say that if you take that girl with you, some kind of incident will occur and fragments of chaos will appear accordingly.

‘I’m not sure what it is.’

Smilecap also talked about it, but said he didn’t know the exact mechanism.

The first time I went up there was by chance.

He said that when he went up the second time, he also inevitably encountered a girl.

Since his goal was a fragment of chaos, it was impossible to take the girl with him.

Did you say that both times, they gave him appropriate items and food and sent him back?

And after a while, fragments of chaos appeared.

It could be seen as a coincidence.

However, due to the circumstances.

‘He appears when the girl is abandoned.’

Mulan Cassen of Chivalry and Punishment.

Considering her name, I think abandoning the girl was against chivalry, so she appeared to punish her.

It was quite a plausible story.

Others agreed that it was a possibility.

Since there wasn’t much information given, I thought about what seemed right.

Although it is a reasonable method.

“I feel like I’m missing something.”

A subtle feeling of discomfort.

The relationship between the girl and the fragment of chaos is also unknown.

Is it a subject with a past relationship like Erembatt and Zenil?

According to my common sense, it is impossible.

Excluding neutral NPCs, there are very few children in the tower.

That’s right too.

‘To become an NPC, you have to climb.’

At least there is a chance that those who climb the tower will become NPCs.

Of course, children are not invited to the tower.

The tower only sends invitations to those who are likely to climb it.

There are exceptions for some races that use strong powers from a young age.

‘Smilecap said he was an ordinary child.’

This isn’t the only strange thing.

chivalry?

Why are you questioning us about that?

We’re not even knights.

If you really think about it, the Noble Knight posted together is similar to the Knight.

There are many cases where there is a cause and what one is wearing is armor.

What about Smile Cap?

“Isn’t he a bit of a match for a knight?”

“Yes.”

Deokchun, who was swimming freely in the clear lake, also nodded.

High school student.

That’s what I felt about Smile Cap.

In reality, I’ve been locked up in the tower for a long time, so I guess I’m not of high school age.

I heard that you were 17 years old when you first entered the tower.

That’s not what I said.

That’s what Choco Choco told me.

Perhaps as a side effect of his young age, he was not very social and had a childish side to him.

In short, he is a person who does not suit a knight at all.

It’s not just this.

“It’s different for each NPC, but there are a lot of evil NPCs.”

Meanwhile, I encountered numerous NPCs while climbing the tower.

There were people who could rightly be called heroes, but they were just cowardly neighborhood gangsters.

There were also a lot of nasty people who behaved like trash or stole other people’s property and lives.

Why don’t you hold them accountable for their sins?

Why do we condone behavior that violates chivalry?

‘Does it only react to climbers?’

In any case, since this is a tower, climbers must be given an appropriate ordeal.

Or, is the chivalry he thinks of chivalry different from the chivalry we know?

It’s an interesting topic.

It was also a question with a lot of potential.

“Whew. done.”

The worries end here.

There is too little information.

You can’t come to a conclusion just by guessing.

“I guess I should go into the village.”

Ultimately, you need information.

Paradoxically, dealing with the fragments of chaos was also a process of getting to know them.

This is especially true if you are the ruler of one floor.

This is a field.

It was clear that it was a world related to this guy.

A field with such a sophisticated and clear view of the world shows a close connection with the world in which its rulers lived.

It was clear that there must be a clue one way or another.

“Deokchun, come out quickly. “I think I need to go into town.”

“Yes.”

Those who have already fallen somewhere else will be looking for the girl.

Since we don’t know where the object is in this large space, we have no choice but to spread out and search.

and.

‘I guess we should repeat what Smilecap did.’

I narrowed my eyes.

I don’t really like the method.

There were various reasons, but it meant leaving the child unattended.

It’s not that it’s bad.

The country would have acted similarly.

The fragments of chaos were strong, and taking a child with no special abilities with him was like telling him to die.

I stood up and brushed the grass off my butt.

“There’s nothing special about the lake.”

Since it was a prominent feature, I thought there might be something there.

I looked around all night, but it was just a clean lake with lots of fish.

This is enough to be used as drinking water if filtered properly.

Before I move, I try to drink some water to quench my thirst.

“hmm?”

I felt like I was popular.

The current time is early morning.

It hasn’t been long since the sun rose.

Blue hair so dark it’s almost navy blue.

A girl with her hair braided on both sides was waddling along, carrying a bucket as big as her body.

I think he was about 10 years old.

He was a child who didn’t even look like he was in middle school.

no way?

“oh.”

“I’m not a strange person. “Just uh…”

The girl who made eye contact with me paused.

Eyes moving up and down.

I tried to appeal that it wasn’t suspicious.

‘He must be taking off his armor.’

I didn’t think of this.

No, how can I take off my armor when I don’t know when I will fight against the fragments of chaos?

I felt aggrieved, but there was nothing I could do.

Even now, I have no choice but to take off my armor and helmet and show my kind and simple face.

“Yes.”

“Shh. “Deokchun.”

Naturally, Deokchun was about to cover his mouth and take off his helmet.

-Chorong, lantern!

I saw the child’s eyes sparkling.

There was curiosity and favor that could not be hidden.

“Glitter!”

I made eye contact with Deokchun for a moment.

-Paaaaaaa!

Each attribute was stimulated and the armor sparkled.

Is that all?

[Fatal Pose (C) Lv.6]

[Skill level up!]

[Fatal Pose (C) Lv.7]

I took a pose that best showed off my figure.

Brilliantly shining armor.

Movement that moves accordingly.

“Waaaa!”

-Clap clap!

The child clapped his hands, throwing away the bucket.

Nudge.

I cried.

‘This is my first time.’

Who applauds after seeing the fatal pose?

I radiated a little more passion.

“Gehehe.”

Deokchun rubbed his eye bones and sighed.

* * *

The child had no name.

He is from Goa and receives accommodation and food in return for doing odd jobs.

The lake also came to collect water.

I tried using the authority just in case.

[Elini]

– A neutral NPC on the 98th floor.

-From Goa!

Even with the power, there was nothing special about it.

I wonder if there is a need to emphasize that he is an orphan.

‘Because it wasn’t normal even in normal times.’

I thought that was okay and moved on.

Since the name Elini is there, it seems like it was given to me by my parents.

‘I guess he died early since he doesn’t remember anything.’

it could be.

I, too, have experienced it with those around me.

The day of cataclysm. Many people died, and many orphans were created during the recovery process.

I also lost my parents during that time.

At least I was a middle school student at the time, but of course there were people younger than me.

At most, the age of attending kindergarten.

Even babies who can’t speak properly yet.

Some of them are too young. Or there were cases where people were so shocked that they couldn’t remember their own names.

Afterwards, when I was issued my resident registration number, I created my own name.

Well, I couldn’t just call them ‘you’ or ‘hey’, so I made up temporary names or used nicknames.

“You probably have a nickname or something.”

Is it possible for people not to live intertwined with each other?

The kid wrinkles his nose at my question.

Just looking at the expression, it doesn’t seem like a nickname I really like.

Well, that’s what nicknames are all about.

“Blue hair. Or bambang.”

“Bbangbang?”

How can a person…

hmmm.

I could see slightly swollen cheeks.

I had the urge to stab him, but I held back.

It was a very intuitive nickname.

“Okay, bambang.”

“Don’t say it’s bread!”

“No, you said it was bread.”

-Wow!

“evil!”

Elini suddenly kicked my shin, but it was she who grabbed her foot.

I took off my armor when I came here, but even so, how could my legs be soft?

I smiled and placed my hand on the guy’s head.

“If you don’t like it, I’ll call you Elini.”

“Elini?”

“It’s the name of a very cool person I know.”

Elini. Elini.

The guy who was muttering that pronunciation nodded.

His eyes sparkle as if he likes it.

“I like Elini! From today, please call me Elini!”

I’m glad you’re satisfied.

Because that was the name he had.

I ruffled my hair and straightened my bent back.

Entered the village.

An ordinary town that isn’t very big, but isn’t small either.

The destination is not clear.

I just followed Elini.

Our plan is simple.

We are looking for a child candidate to summon the fragments of chaos.

Since we don’t know who the real candidate is, everyone makes their own moves.

Once everything is ready.

‘Hide your face.’

Or, they leave behind those who follow them.

If there is a real candidate in it.

‘Fragments of chaos will appear there.’

I was so annoyed that I scratched my head.

I have no intention of becoming friends.

I have no intention of giving you unnecessary affection.

This is especially true if you do it intentionally.

Of course, personal feelings cannot ruin an operation in which all climbers who climbed to the 98th floor participate.

I just control it so it doesn’t get too close.

“Where is Evileye going? If it’s a wandering knight, is it also a city? Or to another territory?”

“The city isn’t that bad, but I’ll be here for a while.”

Elini’s expression brightens at my words.

It seems like he likes people.

“Then, if I’m late, I’ll get scolded and go!”

Elini grabbed the bucket of water from my hand and headed into the village.

After walking along the road for a while.

-Paat.

I ran into an alley where there were no people.

There are so many people on the streets that I can’t use the community comfortably.

Anyway, we found one candidate.

I plan to inform the members of that fact.

Although there is a chat room for 98th floor players, I was using the chat room shared with members due to nickname issues.

[Petit Gongdu]: I found a candidate ☆

[Lick the top of the head]: I also found a little girl

[Mean Meow Punch]: This body too! He’s cute

[Hair loss on your head]: Hahaha! I’m a bit of a kid, but I think this will be okay!

Looks like other guys found it too.

It would be nice to have a candidate.

Nyangfun even took a picture and uploaded it.

“It’s cute. Ellini is a little cuter, though.”

What Nyangfun found was a child with short blue hair.

It looked like he was roughly in the upper grades of elementary school.

Did you find other people?

I leaned against the wall and looked into the 98th floor strategy room.

Writing is difficult, but it doesn’t matter if you keep an eye on it.

I scrolled for a while.

“…What.”

I felt cold sweat running down my back.

[Choco Choco]: We found a candidate!

[Chilly Fairy]: Me too

[Sexy Guy]: I look like him, brothers!

.

.

.

Candidates found by those who climbed the 98th floor.

Although all the pictures were different.

They all had the same hair color.
