With the persuasion of the heroes, Sehyeon began conquering the Tower of Test from the 8th floor. Considering that Sehyun’s current level was only LV.3, the 8th floor was too high for her to climb on her own.
The entrance to the Tower of Tests was so similar to the tower in the nameless village that it was hard to believe that it was the same place. The location, width, size and color of the entrance were all the same.
Even the thick fog guarding the entrance was the same. As the heroes lined up took a step forward, Sehyeon slowly followed behind them. Even though this place was worse than a beginner’s dungeon for them, there was a lot of weight on their shoulders.
The heroes’ levels were all currently at LV.149, as if they had all been adjusted. When Sehyun folded, the heroes’ level was around LV.120. Ruhak was also around LV.170 at the time.
However, all of them were currently about to be promoted. Ruhak didn’t touch anything else, but the levels of the heroes were different. No, maybe I naturally leveled up by going around the tower in the process of getting magic stones.
Still, I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was ready. Is it really a coincidence that it feels like everyone is standing on the same line, with no one being particularly ahead?
There was only level 1 left until promotion. Ruhak, currently at level 199, was no different.
“Rod, step back.”
As he was walking without hesitation, lost in thought, Euncheong grabbed his sword and blocked the way. Beyond his strong shoulders were monsters that looked like goblins. It was larger than the goblin I was familiar with, and had the intelligence of a human of about 7 years, so it was a monster tribe that was highly effective in hit-and-run tactics.
Although they were not a competent race in the field of combat due to their lack of muscle compared to their intelligence, they were intelligent enough to set up high-level traps. If I didn’t look closely at my surroundings, I faced a terrible situation where my leg would be cut off in the blink of an eye.
Perhaps that’s why the heroes were currently frantically scanning the surroundings, looking for any possible traps. The spy’s eyes turned to the monsters only after confirming that there were no traps.
And then.
Wow!
A flash of light and the sound of something exploding echoed eerily through the cave. At the end of the surprised eyes of the heroes, there was a monster’s body tilted with its head exploded. He was the smallest of the group, a monster that had not yet fully grown.
Only when the monster’s body fell to the ground did the heroes turn their gaze to where the light originated. Towards the back, to be exact.
There was Sehyeon standing there, holding a bow as if he had just fired an arrow. Despite the heroes’ dazed looks, Sehyun took out a metal arrow from the quiver on his thigh again.
Then, looking at the monster that had noticed the surprise attack, he opened his mouth.
“Please give me some assistance. “I’ll shoot first.”
‘<Purification’s Fall LV2.>’
And the arrow was shot again. The trigger of the battle was pulled again with the sound of something popping.
Geek!
Monsters with green, thick skin did not even care about the death of their own people. All he did was flick his tongue, grab his weapon, and rush towards where the arrow came from. The eyes that were fluttering for life were focused on Sehyeon.
Intelligent races knew that they needed to kill the weak first to increase their numbers. It was like a survival instinct.
The monsters’ first prey was Sehyeon.
Sehyeon quickly hooked and pulled the third arrow. Perhaps because the bow had no length, the bowstring was also stiff. Se-hyeon pulled his fingertips to the point where they trembled and shot an arrow into the monster’s wide-open mouth.
Again, there was a sound and blood spurted out everywhere. However, unlike the first time, the monster did not die. With an arrow stuck in his mouth, he widened his evil eyes and swung his weapon.
“Please step back.”
The moment the scream of the phlegm-boiling monster pierced my ears, a flash of light appeared before my eyes. Euncheong took only one step. However, when the tip of his sword, which cut horizontally and cut through the air, touched the floor calmly, the dozen or so monsters that were charging at him exploded one after another.
There wasn’t even a scream. It was a simple horizontal stroke without even using any skills. There was not a single drop of blood on the knife, which was shining coldly. When I actually saw it, I was amazed.

Sehyeon looked at the white text that appeared in his field of vision, then opened the ‘Status Window’ to check his stats.
[Do Se-Hyun (Awakening) Race: Black Heaven LV.5 Grade: D]

-Active: <Purification’s Fall LV.2> <Feather Sound LV.2> <Creation of Nothingness LV.1> <Depth of Grace LV.2> <Depth of Trust LV.1> <Will to Heal>
The grade is D. It was impossible to escape from the current level before reaching LV.40. Considering that Kwak Jeong-han, who is currently in C grade, is at LV.45, it was a level that could be considered a long way off.
Sehyun turned off the status window, took a deep breath, and stretched out her feet. He didn’t forget to pick up all the magic stones. After he picked up a bunch of magic stones, everyone started walking again.
Since we had only reached the beginning, it was unclear how many monsters would be swarming inside. The number of dungeons where intelligent monsters appeared was so enormous that they often ended only after subduing them.
If you’re unlucky, you’ll have to hold on to it all day. Depending on how deep the cave was, the amount of time spent on the attack seemed to vary.
As if reading Sehyeon’s thoughts, Muan, who had clairvoyance skills, opened his mouth through the silence.
“I think it will take a long time. “It appears to extend deep underground.”
I knew it. Sehyun draped his bow over his shoulder and nodded.
“are you okay. “It’s good if you subdue a lot.”
My goal for today was to raise it to at least LV.10 and return. As long as you can achieve your goal, it doesn’t matter how many dungeons you run.
A cold wind blew from somewhere. There was an unpleasant smell mixed in at the end of the wind. As we followed the faint sound of the monster, a huge dome soon appeared. Below them, dozens of green monsters holding torches were gathered together and circling as if dancing.
Sehyeon took out an arrow and aimed it at the monster wearing a huge chief hat among the group. He was a gigantic guy, twice as big as other monsters. Even if you can’t do it, you’ll probably be at least a mid-boss.
Certainly, unlike other monsters that were frantically circling around, that monster was keenly aware of signs of life and presence. The moment the pupil-less white object turned around and faced Se-hyeon, all the monsters stopped their actions at once.
It was an ugly life. Her fingertips trembled, and a fear as harmful as the white vag!na appeared before her eyes. The distorted faces of the monsters looked grotesquely twisted.
Sehyun swallowed hard and controlled her trembling fingertips. Then, holding his breath, he closed his jaw tightly and fired an arrow at the head of the chief monster.
bang-!
Perhaps because his fingertips were trembling, the tip of the arrow as it was fired seemed to tremble as well. Fortunately, the arrow with <Purification Fall> pierced exactly below the monster’s neck. However, it was not a fatal wound.
The monster’s bizarre expression, with its eyebrows lowered and grinning, seemed as if it was complaining about an itch. The monster whirled around again, pulling out an arrow and breaking it in his hand.
“Protect the road.”
Euncheong took out his sword and stepped forward. The sword without any trace of blood flashed again. It was like a deadly star floating in a world without light.
I couldn’t even follow the light’s trajectory. With each heavy step forward, the monsters’ bodies were torn in half and exploded. Sharper and quieter.
It was different from the swordsmanship I saw before Sehyun quit. The sword, which traced a fixed path without the slightest tremor, was so straight that it looked cold. However, the color on his armor matched the other wings so well that I couldn’t even take my eyes off him.
The monsters’ loud screams were soon buried in silence. In the center of the community, only Euncheong was left standing with the tip of her sword resting on the stone floor.
The moment Euncheong drew his sword, white letters appeared in his field of vision.

It was only when I remembered my bursting breath that I realized that I had even forgotten to breathe. The worried gazes of the heroes gathered all at once. Muan, Zeno, Gael, and even Euncheong.
The way he opened and closed his mouth several times seemed like he was holding back something he wanted to take away right away. Sehyeon took a long breath and adjusted his bow. And he said with a smile.
“let’s go.”
I had to raise it to at least level 30 before I could participate in the alliance meeting that Fan was talking about. Not even a fan could stop the contempt I received there. Sehyeon has made a lot of mistakes at the moment, and there are also a lot of flaws that need to be pointed out.
So, we had to complete growth as quickly as possible. In addition, the growth of <Depth of Love> and <Depth of Trust>.
They soon walked into a deep cave.
