hero.

(1) ================== 1.

A full month has passed since the meeting of Sanggyunrye.

A lot has happened in the meantime.

We had an audience with the Emperor of the Empire.

Several secret agreements were made between the Empire and the Tower.

However, I pushed back the turbulence of such a history-.

First I did what I had to do.

Because I still have my own backstory.

“Glitter.”

[Yes, hero, Glitter replies.] Raviel and my bedroom.

A single sword was placed on the huge bed.

“Swallow it.”

What once tore my lover's heart.

The sword that locked this world into ten days that were repeated forever.

Origin Sword (祈願劍).

Facing the monster, my holy sword vomited a white light.

[The goddess of protection absorbs her fragment.] White light hit the prayer sword.

Burrr! Immediately, a red aura erupted from the prayer sword.

As if rebelling against the light that was about to devour him, a reddish-red blood mist erupted from the blade.

[The sword of the origin is terribly surprised.] [The sword of the idol persuades the sisters.] The white light and the red mist were up and down.

But the fog was a little thicker.

When red was about to overpower white, another color flowed out of my holy sword.

[Compassion sword also persuades the sisters.] Black sarcophagus.

The second fragment of the holy sword I collected was added.

The trend has been reversed.

The pure white light ate the fog, and the black water ate the fog.

The red mist fell asleep in an instant.

[Kiwongum is astonished at the betrayal of the sisters.] [Kiwongum argues that it is impossible to serve a master other than Lephanta Aigim.] I opened my mouth.

“Can you guess why Lephanta Aigim killed the constellations?”

The red fog stopped.

There was no snow in the fog, but I glared at the fog with the feeling of making eye contact.

A calming tension subsided between the two of us.

“At first, I didn’t understand it at all.

As I went through this world, I knew Those called constellations invade and invade other worlds at will, trying to rule them to their liking.

They ignore the opinions of the natives.”

Although the form is different, [the head of the library in the corner of the room] is the same.

The librarian's interest is not to rule the world, but to observe people.

Humans who are living well are designated as [characters].

voyeurize their [story].

The librarian is like any other constellation in that he tailors the world to his taste.

That is, in a word.

“Public paper.”

it is violence “Lepanta Ai-Kim is the one who even ate the emperor.

think deeply 'I'd rather kill all the constellations than use them to greedy for power.' I'm guessing that's roughly the plan.

Perhaps there was a constellation in this world too, but Lephanta Aigim killed it.”

[.......] “But your original owner was wrong.”

I took the tip of the sword.

“In a world where the constellation died and disappeared, another constellation was born.

Look! In the continent where the 'Goddess of Protection' was sealed, the 'Demon King of Autumn Rain' was born.

A 'silver-plated heart' appeared in this world.

To cut it short, your master doesn't solve problems, he creates bigger problems!”

[Lepanta Ai Kim is… … .] “If not, answer no.”

A sword wrapped in red mist.

The Red Sword (赤劍) was silent.

“Maybe I have less experience than your master.

okay.

Your master may have gone through great ordeals, and knew much more than I did, and after much thought and hardship, he might have taken on the karma of slaughter.

But there is one thing I can say for sure.”

I said sincerely.

“If you have done something, take responsibility until the end.”

[.......] “Eternal winter has arrived in a certain world because your master killed the constellation at will.

The soldiers who lived in that world were insulted as moving corpses.

… Even if Lephanta Ai-Kim had a noble ideal, it would not be forgiven.

Take responsibility.”

OK.

A red mist gathered in one place.

After a while, the fog took on human form.

A child whose body is stained with blood.

[My name is Gwon.] The sword in the shape of a red child opened its lips.

[It is my natural role to listen to people's prayers.] [Lephanta Ai-Kim prayed.

'I will kill all the constellations so that people will never be swayed by them again'.

His origins are noble.

It's heavy.

It's great.

So I entrusted my existence to Lephanta Aigim.] [What kind of origin do you have, human?] I looked down at the child.

“Not running away from anything.”

and said “I will not turn away from what is happening in front of my eyes.

I won't make excuses.

Take responsibility for what I say and don't take responsibility for what I do.

I will not go over the things that I thought were wrong, saying, 'This is the way the world is.

As long as my sword touches and my life goes on.”

[iced coffee… … .] The red child looked up into the air.

[The road to hell is always paved with good intentions.] [All I can do is bless your good will.

Just to be with you in your hell.] It was a bitter lament.

[My ability will be tested.] [Anyone whose heart is pierced by me will be tested.

Was it really a sincere wish? Was it a wish that I wanted to come true even if I sacrificed everything?] [Finally, my cursed ability is to make myself give up my wish.] The child became a red mist and scattered.

[Our new master.] [May you prosper in Hell for a long time.] Slowly.

The mist was sucked into my holy sword.

[The presence of the goddess of protection becomes more evident.] At last, my breath was relieved.

“Whoa.”

With this, I roughly finished what I had to finish before moving on to the next stage.

There are still many things that the Empire and the Tower have to share, but...

That's the realm of politics.

It is an area where my wife is more active than me.

“Are you done?”

When I got out of the bedroom, Raviel, who was waiting in front of the door, asked.

A maidservant was serving Raviel.

"Yes.

Raviel.

I'm all done.

Now there are no constellations or fragments of constellations that can disrupt this world.

At least not for a while.”

“Even though three apostles formed an allied force to attack, it failed miserably.

Rest assured.

Seeing your inaction, no fool would dare to plan an invasion.”

"......." The maid standing next to Raviel had a shaky expression on her face.

It was natural.

This is because the true identity of the maidservant of Raviel is none other than that of the one who invaded this world--- Baron Young-ae, the golden sister.

“… It sounds like you're telling me to listen now.

Your Majesty the Duke.

Is this my own misunderstanding?”

Young-ae, the golden sister-in-law, murmured.

Externally, she is portrayed as [Young-ae wielding a sledgehammer because she was taken away by a deceitful devil].

It made them victims, not perpetrators.

However, the fact that he was possessed by the devil itself was a rumor that would tarnish his honor, so he decided to wash away his dishonor by serving Raviel for the time being.

It must be painful for a young girl who wanted to marry the Crown Prince in the future.

What.

Even now, it seems that Geum Sa-mae is seriously thinking about marriage.

“Your ears are clear.

What I told you to listen to is correct.

Constantly regret how foolish you were, Youngae.

If you have repented properly, I will restore your honor by mobilizing your contacts in the temple.

Until then, shut up and work for my husband and I.”

"Ugh..." Young-ae bit her lip, wearing a maid's robe.

I'm sorry, but she never rebels against us.

Right now, even if I just harvest [Hundred Return Reincarnation], the goldfish will immediately fall apart.

"......." This is the ending I reached.

Looking at the scenery, he slowly opened his mouth.

“I am going to the next stage now.

Raviel.”

"Well.

That would be it.”

Raviel made eye contact with me.

“I want to follow you on a tour of another world, but the Empire needs me.

Just as I have my work, you will also have your own work.

Come and run wild, Confucius.

If you are tired and want to be comforted, come back anytime.

I am here.”

"Yes.

But… .”

I said, thinking a little.

“Well, the 20th floor of the tower is my land.

I want to build a house just for the two of us there.

If you like Raviel too.”

"Ohh? indeed.

Will that place become the home of the couple from now on? In the new house, I will not be the Duke of Ivancia, but only as your companion.”

Raviel smiled.

She read my mind as if it were taken for granted.

“Don’t wait.”

Raviel took out a handkerchief from her arms.

Silver thread embroidery was placed on the white.

She spreads my hands and quietly puts the handkerchief on it.

This.

“This is the handkerchief I usually carry.

I borrowed the power of magic to fix the perfume on the handkerchief semi-permanently.”

“Perfume?”

“You.”

Raviel stood up and whispered in my ear.

“It’s the scent of lily that I smelled the moment I first fell in love with me.”

"......." "You tamper with the handle of your dagger whenever you try to calm your mind.

It's an ugly habit.

throw it away Instead of touching the hilt of the hilt, when you are excited, sniff the incense on my handkerchief.”

iced coffee.

“Confucius.

It is not your misfortune that leaves you as you are.

no pain I wish it wasn't memory and love for me.

May happiness keep you the way you are.

Will you accept my wish?”

“… … Yes." I swallowed a pounding cry from my chest.

"Yes.

I will, Raviel.”

"love." "I love you." I overlapped my lips with Raviel.

I hope this moment will last forever.

But our shadow soon fell, I said.

"---send." A light enveloped my eyes.

2.

The next moment I blinked, I was already in the great library.

I saw the hunters waiting for me when I returned to the library in advance.

"Come on.

King.”

On their behalf, the Black Dragon Lord opened his mouth.

As soon as I saw Black Dragon Juice, I realized that she wasn't feeling well.

Contrary to the words 'Welcome', Black Dragon Zhu furrowed his eyebrows.

"Huh.

What are you doing?”

“I wish I could answer that there is no problem.”

Black Dragon Zhu Ha, sighed.

"Yes.

what's going on That's pretty serious." Then I found it a bit strange.

Around him, there were only the top rankers, including Heilongju.

Originally, it was normal to see hunters like pharmacists.

"Wait.

Where did the other hunters go?”

“We were bitten away because we had something to talk about.

The story we are going to share from now on is close to confidential.

Well, the conversation scene here is also being broadcast live on the tower...

.”

The black dragon's voice became lower and lower.

ominously.

“What the hell is going on?”

“Ahaha.”

The person who answered was not the Black Dragon Lord, but the Heretic Inquisitor.

He took off the dress he had worn on the last stage and was wearing his usual uniform.

“To sum up the current problem in one word, it is.

King! You are too successful!”

"Yes?" “Think about it.

In [Cheonma Sillok], the four kings showed a supreme and docile attitude toward their masters! The scene of respecting the martial arts and exhorting the members of the church itself made the hearts of many hunters throb.

Thousands of martial artists from the outside world entered the tower every day for a while after [Cheonma Sillok] was cleared!”

This time, the paladin took over those words.

“Someone is filming a video that is broadcast live on the tower and is distributing it to the outside world.

No, in fact, we allowed distribution.

king.

Your success creates a huge advertising effect in itself.

There is no reason to give up.”

“By the way, say it.”

The count paid the debt.

“A little bit.

I think we were too comfy.”

“If you thought it was easy… ?”

“The person you are.

No, you are talking about the ripple effect that [ICON] has.”

What do you mean? I couldn't understand English, so I looked at my colleagues.

Everyone had a serious expression on their face.

The only Inquisitor who was always smiling, serious or not, responded.

“113,6554.”

"Yes?" “This is the number of people who entered our tower in just one day yesterday!”

"......." I did not understand what the Inquisitor had said.

After a while, I realized that the Inquisitor had said 'yesterday's day'.

“Yesterday or Haru?”

"Yes! When a war breaks out in the outside world or a country collapses, a population of this size can flow in.

But recently, there have been no battles except for small local battles! ahaha.

The country did not perish! Even though it was [peace], a pagoda of this size was achieved!”

“It’s a leaflet I got from the outside world.”

The Count handed me a flyer.

It was like a presidential election poster with my face painted on it.

Below it was written this sentence: + The King of Death as our King! Head to Utopia! + I opened my mouth slowly.

“Maybe the king of death… ?”

“Of course your name.

It refers to the dead king.

Flyers of this kind are being distributed countless times in many areas.

Just in case I'm misunderstood, it's definitely not something we did behind the scenes.

People from the outside world are making their own.”

"......." I don't know how to react.

“You may have guessed it from the leaflet.”

The paladin smiled bitterly.

“It is rare these days to use flyers as a means of publicity.

Do you know what I mean? king.

Flyers are mobilized only when 'I want to inform people who do not use the Internet'." “… … What are you talking about?”

“People in areas with poor internet access.

poor people in poor countries.

conflict area.

warlord sprawl.

Countless poor and refugees are entering the tower.

They are coming to the Tower of Babel, leaving behind their [national] and [nationality], leaving behind their [life] in the outside world.”

As we did before, said the Paladin.

"Hmm." The viper had his arms crossed.

“Those people.

When they entered the tower, they wore a black hat or a black top.

He said he was going to join the magic school...

To be more explicit, I just saw you and entered the tower.”

“It’s not just the poor and refugees who flock here.”

said Black Dragon.

“A lot of wealthy people came in.

There are scientists, sociologists, and even professors who have entered the ranks with their colleagues.

Self-proclaimed [I will help create a new society in the Tower].”

“Gongja Kim.”

The giant guild leaders looked at me.

“You didn’t just attack the stages.

In the outside world, no.

Everywhere people want a hero.

courage to face difficulties.

Respect for human beings.

devotion to love.

He said, “Nothing excites people more than a hero with a good will and devoting his life to it.”

Hei Ryong-ju took out the smartphone screen and showed it to me.

“You have become our flag.”

There was always a hologram floating in the center of Babylon Square, and it was stamped on the screen.

+ 1st place.

Swordsman 2nd place.

3rd place king.

4th place in Black Dragon.

Inquisitor 5th place.

6th Count.

Viper 7th.

8th place in Babel's history of languages.

9th wide area telecommunications company.

Paladin + Hunter Ranking 2nd.

That was the new position the tower had given me.

My heart was pounding like crazy.

"Four Kings." Hei Dragon Zhu put down his smartphone and looked straight into my face.

She was serious.

More than anything I've ever seen.

"Are you ready to become our king?"120.
