Episode 43

Even though it was late at night, there were many other people entering the Colosseum besides me.

Even though I don’t know what this Colosseum is, I can tell it’s a very popular place here.

[So these buildings were also built by the guys at the top?]

‘Probably not.’

There was no longer any trace of this world in this world.

If so, it would be right to view these buildings in the same way.

As I walked inside, a sphere floating in the air flew towards me.

-Welcome to the Colosseum, how may I help you?

Is that a miniature golem?

Unlike the City Golems outside, the voice was almost human-like, so it didn’t feel out of place at all.

A translucent window appeared in front of me as I stood still.

[Would you like to set the field of the 15th floor quest to ‘Fight’?]

It was the first time that the system window guided me in this way.

Of course, I had never seen a window like this on any other floor.

‘What should I do?’

As I remained still, the golem remained silent and stood in front of me.

At that moment, when I could feel the gazes of people passing by, one by one, I quietly nodded my head.

‘I don’t accept it.’

The quest requires you to surpass the craftsmen of this world.

I still can’t guess the level of skill of the craftsmen mentioned here, but isn’t fighting what I’m best at?

Unless you know how difficult it will be, it’s better to choose the path you are most confident in.

That was probably the reason why Jeren insisted on telling me to go to the Colosseum.

-I will guide you. Please follow me.

Then, the golem moves at the same time as the system window disappears immediately.

‘Is it even connected to the system?’

With growing curiosity and suspicion, I began to slowly follow the golem towards the inside of the coliseum.

Thud, thud.

After walking along the winding road for a while, we eventually arrived at a room that looked very old.

The dusty furniture and musty smell vibrated, but even amidst it all, I smelled a familiar scent.

‘The smell of blood.’

It was so old that it mixed with other smells, but still, there was a faint smell of blood in this room.

Of course, it wasn’t a particularly special smell, as long as you had a rough idea of ​​where this place was.

-Then I will tell you the precautions.

dump.

Only after I sat down on the old chair did the golem begin to explain the precautions one by one.

– It doesn’t matter what weapon you use in the Colosseum, but if you cause damage to the audience, you will be disqualified immediately, and during a match, you must stop attacking immediately if you give up or surrender.

“How much do I have to fight?”

– A total of ten times. If you win all ten fights without losing even once, it will be considered a success for the quest, but I recommend not overdoing it.

After saying that, the golem left the room and left a message.

-If you need anything, please call. The battle will start shortly, so please rest.

When there was no one left in the room, the spider guy spoke to me first.

[I thought you’d summon those undead and topple all the buildings, but I guess not this time?]

A spider guy who talks teasingly and giggles.

I’m already used to it so I don’t really think much about it, but I still have to make sure of this one thing.

‘Spider, if all the chimeras that were your children die because of great magic, will you immediately try to get rid of great magic?’

[What? What are you talking about… … .]

‘It’s something similar to that.’

Although I haven’t climbed many levels so far, I’ve realized one thing.

The tower exists, at least, to help that world.

The floors after the 11th floor were all worlds on the verge of destruction, or if not destroyed, slowly dying, without players like us.

The 11th floor, which was on the verge of destruction due to great magic, the 12th floor, where everyone’s emotions slowly died down as they lived wearing masks, the 13th floor, where everything merged into one and repeated until only one life remained in that world…

Even the quest content on this 15th floor clearly exists to help this world.

But the sight before my eyes is the complete opposite, so what should I do?

Should I help the Tower and make this world completely like the Tower? Or should I drive out the Tower and rebuild this world?

The actions of the top, which are completely contradictory, mean that it is not too late to stop them at least after finding out the inside story.

[Oh. I thought you were just plain ignorant, but you’re actually quite smart.]

‘Do you think I’m an insect brain like you guys?’

[What?]

Before the spider guy could say anything, I continued.

‘And there must be a reason why Jeren, who sent me here, doesn’t appear in front of me even though he has the ability to do so.’

I don’t know if it’s an ability unique to the Administrator, but she can open the gate and appear in front of me freely.

Still, considering that he’s sneaking a word or two into the quest window to guide me, I guess there’s something he’s holding back from stepping forward.

For example… … being watched by something.

‘It’s too risky to gather any more information, so it’s better to proceed with the quest.’

In the first place, as you progress through the quest, you inevitably become involved with that world.

Even if I had blocked it, I could at least find a clue in that quest with my skills.

In the first place, it is natural that I, as a player, am moving to proceed with the quest, and that I cannot be suspected even if I wanted to.

This is the best way to avoid suspicion and gather information.

[… … Well, do whatever you want. It’s your job anyway.]

Of course, the spider guy replied as if he wasn’t interested, but since he was the one who realized that this world was strange before me, he’ll probably investigate it in some way.

After having a long conversation with the spider, one of the empty walls began to shake.

“hmm?”

I was surprised by the sudden change for a moment, but soon I saw a long passageway on one side of the wall that was completely open.

And from across the passage, a loud, male voice and cheers could be heard.

-Waaaaaaaaaah!

-Yes! Who’s the next player? It’s the new challenger from the top! Everyone! Rumor has it that he’s reached the top in the shortest time. How long will he last?

At the expression that seemed to refer to me at first glance, I couldn’t help but stand up.

‘Can I go out there?’

So this is what the Golem meant by fight.

As I slowly got up and walked towards the passage, people began to cheer as they began to see me.

-Wow!

As I finally got out completely, people started to come into view.

The stands were circular, as if they surrounded the stadium, and the height of the stands was much higher than what appeared to be the stadium.

As if looking down on us.

‘I don’t like it.’

It wasn’t great that he was looking down on me, but there were other factors at play as well.

-Wow!

-That guy doesn’t look like he’s having any fun!

-Get behind!

There were a few people in the stands who started booing me, and they increased in number as I made my way through the aisle.

If there are 7 guys cheering for me, there would be about 2 guys booing me.

The remaining 1 were guys who just watched me quietly, as if they had no interest in me at all.

Well, the common denominator was that they all had that reaction and were smiling.

‘Except those guys.’

I kept looking at the guys who were quietly watching me.

They just looked at me without any expression on their faces, and I felt like there was something different about them from ordinary people.

Of course, that thought didn’t last long.

– Then everyone! What would be a good first opponent for the challenger from the top! A challenger from the same top? No! Before doing that! Shouldn’t we first find out how strong the challenger is?

A loud male voice, as if using amplification magic, has been leading the overall atmosphere for a while now.

I thought the voice was smiling, but soon the door opposite me opened and shouted.

– Introducing! The pride of our Colosseum! Behemoth!

Yeah, yeah.

As the heavy iron door opened, something jumped out from there.

A body with the head of a lion, the legs and size of an elephant, and something with the tail of a scorpion and the head of a snake, and many flanks.

A creature that looked like a mixture of countless animals, literally a chimera, was walking out, wounded all over its body and bound in chains.

At that moment, the spider who had been quietly watching the scene cried out in shock.

[Why is that guy… …!]

Suddenly.

I felt puzzled by the voice that seemed to be gnashing its teeth.

‘Do you know that guy?’

[One of my children went missing from the 11th floor one day. I thought he was dead, but why is he here… … .]

Suddenly.

The spider guy who had been grinding his teeth for a while soon started muttering quietly to me.

[… … I never thought I’d say this, but… … Please, Necromancer. Give that guy peace.]

‘I guess I’ll have to kill him and bring him back to life to get the information here, but is that okay?’

The spider seemed to hesitate for a moment after hearing what I said, but his worries were not short.

[Please. I’m going to have to show hell to the guy who brought that guy to this point.]

Krrrrrr.

The chains attached to Behemoth break free with a clank, accompanied by a cry that is either from the creature called Behemoth or from a spider’s anger.

[Necromancer, please don’t use me if possible.]

‘I know that arrangement.’

As he is related to spiders, it is not only impossible to know how he will react if he gets stuck with a spider… … .

‘Someone might be watching.’

Suddenly my gaze turned to the expressionless guys in the stands.

Did you see that as an opportunity?

-Wow!

Behemoth began to stamp its forelegs on the ground and then started running towards me.

-Behemoth roars and runs! The challenger doesn’t move! Ah! Is this how the challenge ends?

At the sound of a man’s voice, almost screaming, I quietly opened my inventory and started taking out the undead.

-Ahh! Those skeletons that make me feel eerie just looking at them… … They’re skeletons! The challenger’s true identity is a necromancer! Was he a necromancer?

Groan, groan.

In an instant, as the audience seats shook, hundreds of skeletons lined up in front of me.

“Stop it.”

Boom!

As I leapt out with my command, I began to counterattack the charging Behemoth.

-Huh!? A counterattack! We can’t stop that Behemoth with just skeletons!

It was just as the man said.

The undead that had collided with Behemoth were once again reduced to bones, and Behemoth, with no sign of slowing down, headed straight for me, almost colliding with me.

-Ahh! Am I going to die like this? Is this the guy I thought was a new powerhouse from the top? Is he just going to leave like this?

I snickered inwardly as Behemoth approached me with its mouth wide open, along with the man’s words.

‘Who said they would die?’

Sarararaak.

The undead that collided with Behemoth are reconstructed from the air again.

If the spider guy himself mentioned it, then that Behemoth guy must have some intelligence.

Of course, wouldn’t it be easier to defeat them by making them let their guard down rather than giving them a strong opponent from the start?

So I deliberately hit the guy and made it look like he was broken, and then I re-composed him from behind.

-Ahh! That! What is that! Skeletons again from behind Behemoth!

As the man spoke, the skeletons merged in an instant, and soon took the form of a skeletal demon, swinging a sword made of bone.

Phew!

Behemoth belatedly realized something and turned around at the sound of the waves crashing as the wind pushed.

Tsk-tsk!

Behemoth, struck by the giant bone sword, crashed hard into the arena wall and soon fell limp, unable to move.

-This… This can’t be happening… Behemoth with just one hit!

‘It’s noisy.’

I shut my ears to the man’s screams and the cheers of the audience, and poured my heart into the guy.

The fraud that took control of the guy’s body in an instant breathed life into him once more, and as soon as I confirmed that his fraud had increased even a little, I immediately put him back in my inventory.

[Behemoth! Come to your senses! Behemoth!]

The man, who appeared to be the host, shouted in an exaggerated voice, perhaps guessing what had happened after seeing the corpse of Behemoth disappear in an instant.

– Amazing! Even that monster can be turned into his own undead! This challenger is really unusual! Isn’t he!

The man’s float was a success, and people cheered for me, including some of the guys who had been booing me just a moment ago.

-I believed you!

-The dividend is 12x! It’s a life-changing turnaround!

Perhaps because he thought things were getting too heated, the man immediately shouted to calm the crowd down.

– The next player is still far from ready, so I would like the challenger to go back to his room and take a short rest! Yes! If you still feel refreshed, you can stay here!

It was as if he was testing me, but I immediately turned around and went back inside.

Some people jeered at me and called me a coward, but so what.

I won anyway.

And the reason I came here wasn’t just to fight.

Thump, thump.

The heart of a dead corpse starts beating again, and I hear the voice of a newcomer in my head.

[A… a… spider… …?]

As expected, my prediction was not wrong.

‘There was an answer to the quest.’

This guy seems to have been dragged to this floor for quite some time, and he might be the one who gives me the information I want.

Behemoth has awakened.
