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

Chapter 56: Start of the Plan

James shook his head as he tightened his grip on Clarent again and realised that there was nothing more he could do.

Suddenly he lunged forward and slowly but steadily began to deliver thin slashes at the giant fairy in front of him.

After a few seconds, the fairy was pulled backwards, and the sound of crying could be heard in the centre of the arena.

"Uh...Why are you hurting me?!"

James' eyes narrowed as these sudden words rang out in the arena, an extraordinary expression on his face and thoughts that he could not solve in his mind.

"Ummm...Sorry, I guess?" James suddenly said, and then he went into the attack position again, but this time he did not have the conscience to attack.

After seeing this, the referee stopped for a few seconds and asked, "Does anyone want to withdraw from the duel?" as if he could think of nothing else.

Hearing this, the giant fairy raised her hand and then said, "I'll withdraw...", instantly walking down the arena and disappearing.

"Aaaah???? I think I won?"

With these words James, the whole arena fell silent, none of them expected to see such a ridiculous duel. Fairy came in, made an attack and received several attacks, then left the arena crying.

Truly, this could have been the silliest event in the history of the arena.

"Ummm...I'd like to take a break, please continue with the next participants." James suddenly said, coughed a little and awkwardly walked out of the arena.

No one could argue with his behaviour, I don't know why, but everyone seemed fascinated, James seemed to be questioning whether or not he had beaten a child.

When he entered the waiting room he saw that everyone was looking at him strangely.

"Don't look at me, I have no idea what's going on, okay?"

When he uttered those words, every single person in the room looked away from him and went about their business.

[It might have been the weirdest match I've ever seen in my life, it was really weird, so weird that I couldn't even tell if that fairy was a real boy or not].

James shook his head as he looked at this window that had suddenly appeared in front of him and read it, and then he thought once again about the millions of strange personalities that existed in the tower.

Of course, there would be such types.

However, he wanted to rest even for a while because even if he was not physically tired, he was in a strange remorse of conscience.

While he was in all these thoughts, he was busy cleaning Clarent, far away...on the upper floors of the tower, things were happening that he would never think about.

"He's already on the 10th floor. He's already won three battles. He seems to know how the arena works.

"Of course he does, you idiot! You don't think Nyx or anyone else is going to tell him how things work?"

"Calm down, even if he knows everything, we still have leverage, I've already gifted my warrior the medallion, there's no way that Umbra bastard won't die."

A group of gods seemed to be talking and commiserating among themselves. One of these gods was Sopdu, the one who had originally initiated the plan to kill James.

"We're lucky, though. The probability of the mission succeeding is enormously high and no one will even suspect us!" one of the gods said.

"I don't understand, isn't every single point of suspicion going back to Sopdu?" another one of the gods asked.

"Come on, are you stupid? Do you really not understand?" another god complained, busy insulting the questioner.

"I don't know, just tell me, damn you!" he shouted, and after these words, Sopdu spoke:

"That incident on the 9th floor. We don't know who or what did it, but whatever we do, there is a personality we can blame. My warrior was not a very aggressive person, but the magic on the medallion made him terrible. I don't even know where the medallion came from, so we will get rid of Umbra and get rid of the accusations against us."

When Sopdu said these words, every god in the room nodded their heads and everything seemed easy to them because they understood the situation completely. The only thing they could do was wait for James and Elian to confront each other.

"What about Nemesis? Everyone knows Nemesis has a crush on the boy. It's even rumoured amongst some of the Olympians. It's the first time Nemesis has ever been in front of a screen and just watched what Umbra was doing, some even say her pupils have become heart-shaped."

There was a small silence in the room after these words, and then Sopdu's voice rose again:

"Yes, I really don't think she will let it go, and even if she doesn't, we can always blame it on the medallion. Of course, it will be a certainty that I gave my warrior the medallion, you just have to defend me."

"Defend?" one of the gods asked.

"Exactly. When Nemesis finds and destroys my warrior, she will come for me. When that time comes, she will say that I gave the medallion in front of you and you will defend me, we need to convince her that we know nothing ourselves." Sopdu replied. Of course, he had bigger plans, but he did not need to discuss them with the gods.

After all this talk, the room was silent again, even the sounds of breathing did not seem to rise in the room. None of the gods made a single sound.

Nemesis was a personality that frightened everyone, because, unlike other Chaos-Borns, that strange woman never retreated from battle, although there were dozens of wounds on the front of her body, her back had no wounds at all. Nemesis was a person who never ran away from battle.

At that moment, a voice finally rose from one of the gods at the other end of the table:

"I don't know how dangerous it will be, but you can count me in, ready to do whatever it takes to destroy the bastard Nyx and his warrior."

These words signalled the flames that would rise and the blood that would be spilt in the confrontation that would take place in just a few days.

No one could expect the gods to be so foolish.

No one could resist the Chaos-Borns.
