Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

Chapter 164: Lucifer and Michael

Jaes took the catacomb key out of his inventory again and then thought about how to use it for a few seconds.

James' thoughts must have been reflected to those watching him from Olympus because after only a few seconds, a message window popped up in front of him:

[You need to transfer your aura or mana energy to the key James.]

James, who had smiled at this message from Nyx, nodded and did as he was told, and after a few clicks of mana to the key, an excellent door made entirely of jade opened in front of him almost three metres.

After looking at the door, James found the doorhole after a very short time and smiling, he got up from his seat and approached the door. As soon as he inserted the catacomb key into the doorway and turned it to the right, the door glowed.

Once James closed and opened his eyes, he realised he was in a completely different place.

Looking around carefully, James admired the architecture of the dungeon he was in.

The place he was in strangely resembled the churches in his world. There were sculptures of angels and, strangely, demons, and each painting gave James goosebumps.

"Isn't that Sebastiano Ricci's painting of Archangel Michael's battle against the rebel angels? I could have sworn I saw it on the internet," James suddenly said, and with that, a message appeared in front of him.

[It's good that you know something about me, young man.]

James' eyes widened when he saw who the message was from and then he said: "I knew you were watching me but I didn't expect to see a message from you, what an honour Sir Michael!"

James, of course, knew that many gods and goddesses were watching him, he had even seen the writings from the system that Michael was watching him, and he even remembered the notifications when the tower first appeared.

The names of Buddha, Lucifer, Michael, Zeus, and Odin were written in that notification, and James had already had the opportunity to meet two of them.

[I can't give you spoilers, but be careful and make good choices].

James shook his head when he saw another message and then frowned as if he didn't understand what Archangel Michael was saying and said, "Alright."

With that, James discovered one by one the paintings on the walls of the 'church-like' room or parlour he was in and then sniffed and tried to steal one of them.

James couldn't know how much laughter was coming from everyone watching him now, he still wished he could get his hands on everything in the catacombs, he was sure he already had the power to kill the guards of this dungeon.

"Hmm...it was worth a try," James said suddenly, and then his eyes fell on the painting hanging above the broken throne at the far end of the hall.

He could see Archangel Michael's imposing yet sad expression. Beside him stood someone else, blackened gold, just as imposing as Michael, but just as sad.

"So this is...him? Fallen Angel Lucifer?"

At James' words, each of the great angels and great demons sitting in the same hall looked at each other in surprise, no one and by that I mean no one expected someone, especially someone from outside of the tower to know Lucifer, the myths in James' world must've been amazing. Just as Lucifer was about to say something, James' voice was heard again:

"Lucifer...You are as beautiful as it is said in books and stories, you must be so beautiful to be the embodiment of pride. Neither ugly nor beautiful, the fallen angel who is said to have no form, if only they knew how beautiful you are."

With these words, James approached the painting and tried to steal it this time, and the audience, who only a few seconds before had been in awe of his words, burst into laughter again. Discover more at m-vlempy _r.

However, James knew there was nothing he could do now, so he turned around and went to the door of the hall and opened it, before leaving the hall, he turned back to the painting he had seen before and said "I'll come back for you! I'll give up Godly stuff if I have to, I swear!" and then he left the parlour.

Just then, Emma's system notification popped up in front of her:

[Throughout history, an infinite number of people have entered the catacombs, but most of them have died just like the beings buried here, leaving everything behind, even their souls.

This is a dangerous place.

It is a place where angels and demons cannot pass by and is seen as a simple reflection of the most horrible regions of hell.

After your challenges, choose your three treasures and leave, if you aim for more than three treasures you will be targeted by the catacomb guardian.

Good luck traveller].

When James read the notification, he smiled and then pointed his middle finger in the air and said, "Let the guardian eat my dust, I will kill him if necessary."

At James' words, Lucifer and Michael burst into laughter, it was obvious that this young man was far more interesting than they had thought.

Michael couldn't seem to take it any longer, he spoke up instantly:

"Ruler, can you hear me?"

At Michael's words, a small doll suddenly appeared in the centre of the silver hall. As the doll nodded, Michael reached into his inventory and pulled out a ring.

Lucifer and Gabriel, Beelzebub and the others were surprised to see the ring, and Lucifer, feeling he couldn't be left behind, reached into his inventory and pulled out a ring as well.

"Amber, come here!" Lucifer suddenly said and a cute little doll with long hair appeared.

There was no way for the angels and demons around to understand what was going on. The gaze of Sun Wukong, who was sitting behind Lucifer and Michael in the hall, or rather in a cloud in the middle, seemed to reveal the strangeness of everything. Sun Wukong literally seemed like he was babysitting those two high beings.

"No way. You two must be out of your minds." Gabriel said suddenly, his surprise obvious, of course.

"I can't believe you're competing for James, Lord Lucifer," Asmadeus added.

Still, the two great 'angels' seemed to stand by their words, the two looked at each other with a scowl as they spoke at the same time:
