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

Chapter 222: Eve

The 35th floor of the tower is the White Altar.

It was one of the most beautiful floors in the tower. After hundreds of thousands of plants grown with the 'Nectars of God' created by Chaos, it became a floor that started to live in touch with nature.

The floor consisted of only one continent and an empire. It was highly probable that James would establish a decent life on this floor.

After all, the White Empire, which owned the floor, was one of the biggest friends of the Sun Empire on the fifth floor. They were the ones who sent the priests to the 5th floor with the special teleportation rune in the White Empire palace, even though it could not be entered when the Fallen God danger fell on the 5th floor.

This meant that James, as the rightful owner of the Sun Empire, should be treated like an emperor.

The two opened their eyes and were greeted by several people carrying the flag of Asgard.

"Welcome master Umbra, since there is no Olympus on this floor, we will be the ones to take care of you, please forgive our rudeness."

James smiled when he heard these words and then said, "No need to worry, the fact that the great Asgard is accompanying us is more than good enough." He expressed his respect for Asgard.

Indeed it was, thanks to his mother, the personalities, gods and goddesses and even 'mystical' monsters he had learnt about were quite numerous.

"Please follow us, the Empress is waiting for you," the Asgardian guard said.

With that, the march from the city centre began and after almost ten minutes, the carriages and horse-drawn carriages made their way to the palace.

James could not help but fall in love with the sights he saw, especially as he passed by. The fact that this city was so happy seemed to show James what he could achieve in the future.

However, there was a war at the end of it, the two roads that James wanted to move forward intersected with each other, and the fact that he knew it himself was enough to leave even such a beautiful view in his mouth, it was a terrible situation.

However, after almost thirty minutes, the palace was finally entered.

As James travelled in the carriage, he saw hundreds of soldiers lined up, bowing and paying their respects, and both he and Ariel were becoming very confused.

"What's going on?" James had asked, and with that, the Asgardian guard had spoken the following words.

"Information has leaked out of the Sun Empire, sir, that you have a connection to the founding emperor. Lady Nyx and even Odin himself tried to mobilise all of Asgard to block the information, but they failed. The fact that you are the rightful owner of the Sun Empire, as well as the rightful owner of the Church of Night, makes you even more valuable than the empire itself. Moreover, this empire, which the first emperor saved with his own hands, will surely treat you with respect."

James had never heard such information from Nyx or anyone else, so James was asked not to worry. He realised this and nodded with a small grunt, making it all the more strange that he knew that he would indeed be calmly treated as an emperor.

After a short time, the carriage stopped and James and Ariel stepped out of the carriage and saw a woman with golden hair and green eyes and the people behind her.

The woman with the golden hair was quite surprised to see James, and so were the people behind her.

When the two of them pursed their lips as if they could not understand what was happening, James started to speak:

"Pleased to meet you, my name is James Arthur Black, known as Umbra of Chaos. The person next to me is Ariel of Chaos, who I consider my mother and who is also my first knight and also the first general of the Chaos Guild."

After James's words, Ariel turned to him and said in a low voice, "I could have introduced myself."

"Welcome, Mr James. My name is Eve, the only empress of the White Empire, please follow me."

The woman who introduced herself as Eve told James to follow her and with that the group entered the palace gates.

The Asgardian guard was left outside for security reasons and the group entered with one less person.

When James looked around, he thought that he was faced with an even more beautiful view with each passing second and watched the flowers with each step with joy.

After almost five minutes, they reached the top of the palace and entered the room right next to the throne room.

The table in the room was covered with food. As the Empress sat in the front chair, James was gestured to the other end of the table and Ariel was given the seat next to him.

"You look so much like Master Desmond," said the woman who introduced herself as Eve, she had no idea how many people she had stunned with those words.

As Ariel wondered who Desmond was, the room became very dark, the happy atmosphere of earlier seemed to have vanished, and it wasn't even because of James himself.

James' shadow had taken the form of Nyx, just as it had the first time he had come to the fifth floor. Nyx brought her index finger to her lips and bluntly told Eve to shut up.

"If it's just you and the Titans watching I don't think there's a problem Lady Nyx, please stop wasting your energy," James said suddenly and with that, his shadow suddenly returned to normal.

James' voice was heard again as Eve and the others tried to understand what had happened:

"As much as I am very, very grateful for your hospitality, please don't mention my ancestor's name like that. We were lucky. Even if information about my bloodline has leaked out, my ancestor's name cannot leak out, please remember that."

Eve shook her head at James' words.

"You said Nyx, sir...Or?" Eve said in surprise, both she and her family refusing to believe that the person they saw was the shadow of the goddess.

"Just as you think, as I said, please do not talk about these matters. There are some unnecessarily aggressive Titans out there," James replied and his gaze fell on Ariel.

Ariel's gaze revealed to James that she knew nothing of what was going on. That's why James chose to speak into Ariel's mind instead of out loud and said, "I'll tell you later, or you can hear it from Moros."

With that, Eve's voice was heard again:

"Forgive me Mr James, we were really surprised, you know...De...Your ancestor's paintings are in the library section of the palace. It is said that your ancestor loved to read books, and my ancestor hung the paintings he had drawn after him there, that's why we likened you to him."

With Eve's words, James smiled and then said, "Yes, I heard that my ancestor did a few things for this empire, even if I don't know what happened, I am happy to see that it is still a good and vibrant empire."

He said these words from the bottom of his heart. It was really astonishing that this floor was in such a peaceful state even though it was a common floor, this could be because the floor consisted of only one continent, and the fact that there was only one empire ruling the continent made everything more perfect.

"Thank you, it is a pleasure to have you here, I hope you will stay here before moving on to the next floor, the whole palace is open to you if you wish to rest, the same goes for Mistress Ariel after all you have expressed that you consider her your mother."

James shook his head as he heard these words and saw the pride on Ariel's face.

"What, are you proud because you got a free place to stay?" James muttered, of course, he was joking.

Ariel smiled and said, "We lived in the snow for all these months, I was exhausted from the cold, let me think about my comfort for a little while."

After these words, James turned to Eve and said, "Lady Eve, if you and your family would like to go to the fifth or twentieth floors, please do not hesitate. Every priest and priestess of the Church of Night on both floors and even the imperial family of the Sun Empire, will greet you with respect. You have my word."

He was aware that Desmond had made a great friendship with this empire, but a great deal of time had passed since his death and now it was up to James himself.

"We would be honoured sir, please let us eat and then we can take you on a tour of the palace," Eve replied, her golden smile matching her golden hair.

"Well, if you have flower gardens and we're going to visit them, I'd rather not sleep all day," James said with a smile.

"You like flowers, do you?" asked the young man sitting next to Eve, who looked quite artistic.

"Very much. I have an ability called Heaven's Call. The ability reveals a flower garden that stretches for almost fifty metres," James replied.

The conversation and laughter continued and after the conversation that lasted almost until dinner time, Ariel went to sleep while James headed towards the flower gardens with Eve and their children in tow.

For the last few months...no, for the last year, he couldn't remember ever feeling so comfortable.
