Boundless Necromancer

Chapter 376

376. Dimension Cradle (2)

In an instant, the sight in my field of vision changed completely.

?Complete calculation of compensation.?

?Reward is given according to the emotional state of White Crane Swordsman.?

?As a reward for breaking through the special contract ordeal, ‘Deep Divinity’s Call (EX)’ will be sent to your inventory.?

?As an additional breakthrough reward for the special contract ordeal, the ‘Bracelet of Divine Absorption (SSS-)’ will be sent to your inventory.?

The world is dyed in darkness.

As if this place didn’t even deserve to exist any longer.

The moment the world created by the tower disappeared like a mirage.

It was only then that I was able to accept that the ordeal of my earnest wish from Baekhak Geomseon had come to a perfect end.

“…”

If I had to ask, I should have been happy with this.

Originally, the fact that it was a secret request given by the manager is a very difficult ordeal that ordinary challengers cannot even dare to dare to do. Clearing this itself is an indicator of how far I have come.

When I was a challenger climbing the 10th floor of the tower at most, I was even warned not to challenge like a moth because I was blinded by the reward that would come at the end of the ordeal.

But now it wasn’t.

‘It wasn’t that difficult.’

no.

Should I say the opposite again?

Now, the top side checks that this side will clear the ordeal of the longing so easily, and it’s to the point of putting up a lot of penalties.

It was actually easy to clear.

‘obviously.’

However, in a way, it was natural.

Even if the tower adds numerous penalties, isn’t this an ancient deity?

It was at least as simple as cultivating the best martial arts power in the fake world reproduced by the tower.

Considering that he had struggled even with ordinary challengers from the other world who had no divinity, it could be said that it was a tremendous improvement.

Originally, it was thought that it would be extremely proud after overcoming all the trials of this longing, which I thought would struggle since the days when I was just a challenger to the tower.

Because a lot has changed from the past.

‘But…’

But…

‘It’s pointless.’

Not really.

Of course, there was no lack of joy that could be said to be a sense of growth.

It’s just that it’s a complicated feeling because of the bitter taste in my mouth rather than the pure joy that it has reached this place.

‘Is it a wish that leaves nothing…’

It was just like that.

Anyway, the wish Baekhakgeomseon wished for during his lifetime could not come true.

Even if they were to fulfill their long-cherished ordeal within the stage built at the discretion of the Tower, there would be nothing left except for the reward they received.

‘Last time it was like this.’

It was the same as when he received and cleared the trial of his earnest wish from the iron blooded lord.

The world facing her destruction cannot be returned by breaking the ordeal of the tower’s earnest wish.

The only thing an iron-blooded lord can do is cling to his delusion while seeing a wish that can’t come true.

And it was no different in the Baekhak inspection.

‘In the original history, the Baek family must have perished.’

Originally, her family would have perished and disappeared without leaving any traces anywhere.

Perhaps she was the only one who got out of the Baek family family, which was about to end, and wandered around, eventually entering the tower….

Even that didn’t seem particularly hopeful.

Anyway, if Baekhak Geomseon had been able to revive the Baek family, this would not have remained her long-cherished wish.

He felt the bitter taste in his mouth grow stronger.

‘Maybe it’s because I’ve gotten used to it?’

but for a while.

‘Still, it’s less messy than last time.’

Before I knew it, I shook my head and brushed off the remaining thoughts.

Well, it’s not like you can come up with a better answer if you think about it further.

Of course, in the end, when I think of how Snow White said she wanted to treat me as a teacher, the bitterness deepens

.

‘Rather than things I can’t really touch, I should start with things I can do myself.’

So…

“I have entered the forest.”

Now it’s time to return to where I should be.

“…”

Then, when I closed my eyes and opened them, I saw the inside of a familiar mansion.

There, as always, Baekhak Geomseon was sitting with his body upright.

However, her face was different from usual.

“ah-.”

Should I say that I am a person who is slightly angry?

“Are you here?”

Not even that.

Suddenly, I could feel the anger emanating from her voice.

Of course, at first glance, Baekhakgeomseon seems to be friendly with a smile on her face, but… I don’t know

why, but there was a sharp tone in her voice.

“Sungyun… Ah! no Now that you’ve accepted me as a priest, should I call you something different? Whoops.”

and.

“Master.”

It was only then that I was able to notice the cause of Baekhakgeomseon sending such a coy look.

“I’m asking because I really can’t understand it in a pure sense as a disciple of Buddhahood…” It’s

nothing else…

“How does it feel to accept your teacher as the first disciple in your life?”

Receiving Baek Seol-hwa as a disciple at the end of the ordeal of earnest desire appealed to the fact that the white crane sword line in front of him was firmly swollen.

“yes? Master. Please answer me.”

“….”

It gave off a cool tone that I had never even heard of.

***

“…misunderstanding.”

It felt like a cold sweat that couldn’t flow.

Did people often make excuses like this, saying they were misunderstood when they recognized a mistake?

I suddenly felt like this was the way it was, but I couldn’t help it.

…because before I knew it, Baekhakgeomseon was looking at me with his arms folded and his cheeks inflated like a squirrel.

“…It only happened that I received Master as a disciple. I had no intention of doing that.”

And only then did Baekhak Geomseon narrow his eyes and answer.

“…really? Didn’t you think of that, Master?”

“yes. … And you don’t have to use the word master.”

“Whoa. Originally, it was a crime of destroying knights. Since you are my benefactor, Master, I can’t help it. Master, this bulcho disciple made a mistake.”

“…”

One, and that for a while.

‘…uh?’

After that, I was able to realize a certain fact while looking at Baekhakgeomseon’s face as if I noticed.

‘…What is this again?’

It’s nothing else…

‘…Are you kidding me with this?’

The fact that this is making fun of me on the other side.

It was because he saw the corner of her mouth quivering and barely holding back a smile.

Only then did I laugh quietly as if I was dumbfounded and went out shamelessly.

“Then, that’s how we change the teacher-teacher relationship.”

“…?”

“Master. no. There is truth in what the disciple said. Well, if you want me to be your teacher, that wouldn’t be too bad.”

“…yes?”

Unlike Baekhak Geomseon, I continued talking without any change in expression.

“Come to think of it, I think I can handle martial arts better now, so shouldn’t it be at the level where I should teach you?”

“Is this a teaching…?”

“yes. Still, I was treated as a teacher in my own way, so I couldn’t help but teach, right? I will teach Lady Seolhwa my martial arts…”

“No, no, I was joking…!!”

and.

“…I had no intention of asking Seong-yoon for anything like the crime of destroying the article! Really! I don’t want that Sungyoon to be my real teacher.”

“Of course I know.”

“…?”

“I was joking too.”

Hearing this, Baekhakgeomseon blinked his eyes a few times and tilted his head, and then he lowered his face as if he was embarrassed and said,

“Uh… did I just get tricked…? To Sungyoon…?”

“It’s just that Master made fun of me, so I returned the same thing.”

“This is the sin of destroying knights! I can’t really see you this time…!”

And Baekhakgeomseon spoke so hotly, but then he was startled and continued with a voice like an ant.

“…Huh hmm. oh no I’ll let you see it this time. Well, as a teacher, you should have that level of mercy.”

Maybe it’s because I came up with the words that this side will serve as a teacher again…

“That’s a very lucky sound.”

Really…

isn’t that an interesting reaction?

It seems that this is often teased over and over again.

I smiled at him, nodded, and continued.

“Anyway, it seems you don’t have any regrets.”

“Resentment…?”

“Unlike the iron-blooded lord, Canary, it seems like she doesn’t have any particular disturbances in her emotions even after the ordeal of her earnest wish is over.”

“ah.”

And Baekhak Geomseon, who heard that, replied with a bitter smile.

“That’s right…. To be honest, I’m not very impressed after spending a long time clinging to a secret wish. It’s just a little bit sad.”

she said in a subdued voice.

“I think it would have been nice to have a helper like Sungyoon by my side.”

“Is that so…”

“But that doesn’t mean I regret it that much.”

“….”

Before he knew it, Geomseon Baekhak continued, twiddling with the gray hair that fell over his shoulder.

“…Unlike the original, if my family hadn’t disappeared, I wouldn’t have been able to meet Sungyoon and make him a disciple.”

“…?”

“greatness! It means that the disciple named Seongyun is so important. as a master. Oh you know? What does this mean?”

“…yes.”

She finally cleared her throat and pursed her lips.

“And above all, most of the people I have to avenge are dead because of their longevity.”

“ah.”

“The only reason I clung to the ordeal of the secret wish was because of the way they died miserably and the delusion of what it would have been like if the Baek family had survived.”

“You mean it’s gone now?”

“Thanks to Sungyoon’s request.”

When I looked at Baekhak Geomseon, she spoke again.

“Actually, that’s not the only reason I don’t have any regrets.”

“…?”

“…Come to think of it, I’ve said it about once. It is not that the ordeal of the secret wish cannot affect reality at all. You can change the past.”

“I remember.”

And to those words, I immediately answered based on the memories remaining in my head.

“I told you that if you can climb to the last floor of the tower, even the manager’s earnest wish can be turned into reality.”

Baek Hak Geomseon immediately nodded and agreed.

“…Whoops. that’s right. So no regrets left. If my long-cherished ordeal could become a real reality, that would be a thrilling revenge.”

Hearing that, I narrowed my eyes and parted my lips.

“However, he said that it could be done only when I reached the final floor of the tower…”

But…

“It doesn’t matter.”

She answered right away as if she knew even that.

“Because Sungyoon is definitely someone who can climb to the top of that tower.”

“?”

“I was sure. Seongyun will be able to stand at the top of this tower that no one has ever invaded. So you won’t regret it.”

“…”

Before I knew it, Baekhakgeomseon’s confident eyes were shining.

“All I want now is for Sungyoon to reach the top.”

“…”

“And if Sungyoon remains by my side even at the end of the tower, that’s enough for me.”

“Then I’m happy too.”

I smiled at him.

Well, anyway, if the other side doesn’t have any regrets, there’s no need to worry about this side either.

After making a relieved expression as if I had finished my business, Baekhak Geomseon said with a subtle smile.

“Sungyoon, are you going to go back to the waiting room now?”

“yes. … I have a lot of work to do. fairly.”

“Then I will be here watching over Sungyoon. All the way. Still, if you want to see this master, come anytime.”

“All right.”

Then, I looked at Baekhak Geomseon, bid farewell lightly, and left.

Where Bondi had to go back.

It was…

the top.

***

?You have entered the waiting room on the 27th floor.?

In the blink of an eye, everything in your field of vision changes.

Noticing that I had returned to the familiar stone chamber, I immediately opened my inventory.

Even if the transcendence myth < Absolutely Unchanging > is not activated, now all the penalties received from the tower have been lifted.

Because of that, most of the equipment was reusable.

I summoned the equipment one by one from my inventory.

‘For now, we can re-wear all of our equipment and check the rewards…’

But that’s for a while.

Deed—!

“?”

As soon as I suddenly felt a strange vibration in the tower, I couldn’t help but tilt my head.

“…”

It’s nothing else…

“The number of people who have broken through the 25th floor in the Earth dimension has exceeded 1000.”

“What is this again?”

Before I knew it, an unfamiliar system message appeared in front of me.

?Conditions satisfied.?

?All official climbing dimensions have exceeded 1000 people who have broken through to the 25th floor.?

?The Tower of Trials will hold a joint event

with all official climbing dimensions .? Appearing.?

At this point, I had a feeling.

??Caution??

?Dimension Cradle is a mandatory optional event and is related to the destruction or continuation of the earth.? ?

If you lose in the competition that takes place inside the Dimension Cradle, the Earth-level protective barrier may disappear.?

“What. …”

Dimension Cradle.

I didn’t know all about it, but I definitely noticed one thing.

…the fact that this is an event in the tower that could bring about the destruction of the earth.
