Lord of the 72nd Floor, Origin of the Raven.
“Caw, caw!”
The bastard let out a cry, seemingly delighted at the sight of the prey he’d encountered for the first time in ages.
Brandishing his spear, he swung it around vigorously, looking every bit the hunter.
As soon as he faced off against Habel, dawn broke over his sword.
“Normally, I’d take my time to test things out.”
But this time, I had to go save that Baria guy.
Since I was already caught up in this mess, Habel decided not to waste any more time.
His aura changed in an instant.
“Caw!”
Startled by the sudden shift in his aura, Origin of the Raven let out a cry.
All of Origin of the Raven’s black feathers stood on end at once.
His opponent was, at most, a tiny human that was much smaller than himself.
A human that looked so frail he could kill it with a single flap of his wings.
So Origin of the Raven was delighted.
He was a guy who’d always been stuck in statue form due to the difficulty of the Tower.
It was his first hunt in a hundred years, so of course he was happy.
But what the hell?
The moment Habel’s aura changed, he realized it right away.
Habel before his very eyes was not prey.
Right now, he was the prey.
The moment that thought entered his mind, Origin of the Raven’s body turned gold.
In a flash, he disappeared into particles of light, and Habel let out a hollow laugh.
“I’ve already dealt with that.”
Habel saw the bastard doing the exact same thing as the Golden Crow and thrust his foot forward.
Thud!
At that moment, light spread across Habel’s body along with the foot he’d thrust out.
Habel traversed the space in an instant, faster than a particle of light.
But Origin of the Raven wasn’t just going to take it.
As soon as he returned from being a particle of light, he swung his spear.
Habel swung his sword as the long spear came flying at him.
But Origin of the Raven had something else in mind.
That was because the spear he’d swung at Habel was still a particle of light.
The spear, which was in a particle of light state, passed right through Habel’s sword.
At the same time, it took shape again in the space between Habel and his sword.
Habel looked at the spear that had flown right up to the tip of his nose.
Joy appeared in the eyes of Crow Origin for a moment.
Clang!
Crow Origin’s spear was deflected by Habell’s hand.
He had been holding the sword until a moment ago, so there was no time for Habell to block the spear.
Nevertheless, Habell’s hand blocked Crow Origin’s attack.
“Caw!”
Crackle, crackle!
Crow Origin shot electricity at the spear as if struggling.
Then, the electricity exploded before Habell.
Habell looked at him calmly through the black smoke.
The color of Crow Origin’s feathers began to turn pale.
“How are you going to block my sword like this?”
Habell swung his sword as he asked.
Crow Origin twisted his body in a hurry.
However, Habell’s sword extended as it had a will of its own and cut off his wing.
Swish!
“Cawwww!”
Crow Origin’s severed wing fell.
In an instant, he began to flap his remaining wing and tried to become a particle of light.
However, as Habell had said, it was an escape method he had already experienced.
A fierce dawn began to frost over Habell’s sword.
It was such a strong light that it seemed to suck in even Crow Origin’s particles of light.
Crow Origin noticed that light.
He could not avoid it even if he wanted to.
If he became a particle of light, he would be swept away.
Crow Origin’s light condenses instantly into the air.
It was only for a moment, but it was quite a distance from Habell.
However, the growing dawn of Habell was clearly reflected in his eyes.
He could not escape no matter where he ran.
So he folded his remaining wing and faced Habell.
If he was going to die, he would face him in a life-or-death struggle.
His feathers stood up at once.
His spear began to turn gold.
Golden lightning began to flash around Crow Origin’s body.
At the same time, his size began to swell.
He was growing in size.
An enormous amount of mass and energy poured out.
The determination to pierce through and through emanated from his spear.
Crow Origin’s appearance was gradually covered in gold.
Unbeknownst to them, the sky around Crow’s Origin had turned yellow.
It was the aftermath of Hyunwook’s passing.
Under the yellow sky,
The moment Crow’s Origin’s eyes gleamed,
Its wings flapped forward.
KWA-AA-AA-AANG!
Crow’s origin flew even faster than when it had escaped earlier.
The surrounding clouds were torn to pieces, and the trees below were uprooted.
Its destructive power was absurd.
Before it, golden lightning crackled.
Habell quietly imbued his sword with dawn.
“How flashy.”
Habell simply raised his sword as he always did.
Dawn from Habell’s sword lit up the sky.
——–!
A silent light devoured everything.
The sky, which had been tinged yellow until just now, was gone.
Only the tranquility of dawn remained.
And the one that had been flapping its wings in front of Habell was swallowed by Habell’s dawn.
KUUUUUUUUNG!
Along with the dust and wind, Crow’s Origin crashed onto a mountain.
Because of Crow’s Origin’s gigantic size, the top of the mountain collapsed entirely.
As a result, a landslide occurred, and the mountain was in shambles.
Watching this, Habell reached out his hand.
[The achievement ‘The One Who Defeated Crow’s Origin’ has been registered. ]
[The adversity of ‘Crow’s Origin’ seesps into your body.]
– Strength has increased by 100.
– Agility has increased by 92.
– Tenacity has increased by 110.
– Aptitude has increased by 103.
-Skill has increased by 104.
– Adversity has increased by 100.
His stats rose rapidly in an instant.
And Habell checked the adversity stat of Transcendence, which was the last remaining one.
‘991.’
Now, even transcendence of adversity was right around the corner.
At the moment he passed the next stage, he would definitely transcend adversity as well.
“Now, I can’t even be called human anymore.”
Havell absorbed the adversity and turned towards the door.
Then he saw Balob, Piod, and Owen, who had been wandering around.
It seemed that he had been waiting for Havel to come.
Pyode discovered them.
He was relieved to see Havel.
“I thought you would be further away. You were here.”
“If you were in danger, I couldn’t hide from such a monster.”
That was true.
Havel didn’t say anything more and put his hand on the door of the 73rd floor.
“Let’s go.”
Havel opened the door without hesitation.
At that moment, the four of them disappeared with a bright light.
Then, when Havel opened his eyes again.
White trees and grass, different from before, came into his view.
In a world of ash that seemed like it would crumble if he touched it.
Some of the ash scattered.
“Collock, this is.”
Pyode, who recognized the identity of the ash, immediately covered his mouth.
A pitch-black sky was visible above.
Volcanic ash continued to swirl there.
“Ugh, it’s hot!”
Vallob screamed as the volcanic ash touched his skin.
The volcanic ash was hot enough to melt skin.
“Use magic or protect your body with aura.”
Havel gave instructions and took out a piece of paper from his pocket.
He had never heard of the 73rd floor being like this.
According to the information he had seen, it was supposed to be a floor where an ominous species called the Primitive Crow Tribe lived.
However, there was nothing like that, and only volcanic ash was flying, so of course he was curious.
“Ha, Sir Havel!”
At that moment, Owen pointed to the sky.
Something like a giant shadow, reflected beyond the black volcanic ash clouds, was slowly walking through the clouds.
“Vallob.”
Havel looked up at it and called Vallob.
“Is that a member of the Primitive Crow Tribe?”
When Havel asked, Vallob was bewildered.
“Ah, no. It’s big, but it’s about the level of the crows on the lower floors. There’s no way there could be anything that big.”
He replied in a bewildered tone.
As soon as he heard that, Havel realized what the situation was.
Damn it, the Tower had increased the difficulty.
It wasn’t just raising the level of the Master like before.
It was the overall difficulty of the entire floor of the Tower.
“Owen, Baria might be dead.”
When Havel honestly confessed, Owen’s face turned paper-white.
From noble mtl dot com
If that bastard was walking around, Baria could have died sooner.
‘Of course, the difficulty of the tower has changed since I entered. I think it’ll be okay for now though.’
He felt that it was a matter of time.
If not just this floor, but the difficulty of the other floors had increased as well.
There must be chaos up there by now.
At that moment, Havel shifted his gaze.
A ray of light was flying in front of him.
The ray of light was in the shape of a butterfly, but it was not a harbinger of misfortune.
“Balob, isn’t this magic?”
“Oh, oh, oh, it is! It’s a magic message that sends a voice to a specific target.”
Balob recognized the true nature of the magic.
“Can I check the voice right away?”
“Yes, I’ll connect and play it.”
Balob approached the butterfly right in front of Havel.
Then, he patted the butterfly here and there.
A moment later, the butterfly’s light disappeared.
“It’s coming out!”
Along with Balob’s voice, a crackling sound was heard.
[Sniff.]
Then, what was heard right away was the sound of someone sniffing.
Havel recognized the owner of the voice.
Then, he soon made a dumbfounded expression.
[ Sir Havel, we were attacked by a group called Memento Mori. Mr. Mobius and Ms. Baria got injured and ran away to the upper floor. ]
It was none other than Ellasya.
The chief magician of Selentia, whom Havel had brought with him as a guide in the past.
Ellasya Selentia.
She had also reached the 7th level.
It seemed like she had followed Mobius.
‘Why did she follow him?’
She must have thought that there would be a lot of easy pickings if she stuck with this group.
Havel scratched his head as he roughly understood Ellasya’s thoughts.
[Th, then, I fell after being attacked by the Memento group and then passed out.]
And her voice began to tremble slightly.
[ The crow tribesmen found me and took me away. ]
There was even a slight sob in her voice now.
[So, if you hear this message, could you please save me if it’s not too much trouble?]
The end was almost a sobbing voice.
That was the end of the message.
Ellasya’s efforts could be seen in the fact that she had started by mentioning the information that needed to be known first.
Flicking his tongue, Havel trudged through the ash.
“Havel, what’s wrong?”
When Pyrod asked, Havel shook his legs lightly.
“He’s someone our family has been trying to network with.”
He’d been useful in the past, so he had to help him out this much.
“The quickest way to find that guy is to ask the locals.”
Pyrod stopped as he understood what he meant.
It didn’t take long for his thoughts to lead him to the right answer.
Because Havel’s figure disappeared in a flash.
Watching him, Pyrod thought quietly.
That all the Crow tribesmen would die today.
