Admission is a waste of time (158)
Lesson 32. The progress is too fast – 2
―The constellation [Breath of Life] is furious, destroying everything in its path. It screams that it cannot understand why you have more influence over the tower than they do.
―The constellation [Breath of Life] declares that it will cease its patronage, but it cries out, realizing that it cannot reclaim its power from you.
―The constellation [Breath of Life] curses you for stealing its power without permission, and swears that next time it will give you a perfect death.
―I have discovered that the constellation [Breath of Life] has a hidden name, [Conductor of Death].
―The constellation [The Clock of the Toy Legion] begins to wonder which side it should stand on.
Ban Yu-won’s prediction that the constellations might be interfering with this chain room turned out to be very accurate.
To be precise, in Room 84, the fact that the key component that became the key to the chain room was buried inside the body of an elite monster could be seen as evidence of intervention.
However, things proceeded according to the constellation’s will only up to that point.
What did Ban Yu-won do against the armored beetle legion that had the power and conditions to even retire Dokgo Yeon, the possessor of absolute power?
What about controlling the discharge that started in room 94 as you wish?
‘I see, there was a constellation involved. Something felt strange… … .’
I never thought that one of them would be the one who supported me, but it was easy to understand.
Even in relation to handling power, didn’t the breath of life show reactions that gradually escalated in the order of surprise, amazement, doubt, and anger?
The decisive blow would have been, of course, the liberation of Celon in Room 90, but even without that, the breath of life was already sufficiently hostile to Ban Yu-won.
‘And the clock of the toy army, this one is… … .’
It’s a bit ambiguous though.
Anyway, this guy’s reaction when releasing Celon’s seal was equally disgusting.
Now that they’ve been caught manipulating their powers at will, there’s no need to let them voyeurize you any longer.
The half-wit mercilessly cut off the breath of life and even the connection to the toy army’s clock.
Perhaps other constellations will also find out about this? If possible, I would like to receive two or three more sponsors, but it was a bit disappointing.
“Oh, ohhhhh… …! Van, the base is going crazy!”
“No, this isn’t a runaway. This is… … .”
But now I don’t have the luxury of worrying leisurely about the constellations.
The moment when the machine egg, or Lilith, that swallowed the core component of the damaged base, was buried in the object of the machine square instead.
The object collapsed in an instant, enveloping the machine egg――and in time with that, vibrations began to run throughout the base!
“Ban, that thing! Shouldn’t it be ripped off?!”
“There’s no need for that. Let’s just go!”
Ban Yu-won interpreted the golden strings that surround and overflow the object.
Combination, fusion, absorption, and finally hatching.
I wonder why they don’t hatch and why they are so difficult to feed.
It seemed like the cranky guy had finally made up his mind.
“If we stay here, we’ll be merged too!”
“What?! You, you, you, that’s s*xual harassment!”
“You crazy bastard, now is not the time to be doing that!”
Ban Yu-won grabbed Light, whose face turned bright red, as if he had misunderstood something, and started running.
The wires buried in the ground are unable to overcome the gravitational force of the object and are thrown out in all directions. The iron plates that are flying in all directions are soon swept up in it and swirl around.
And since all of that is discharging, one touch will set off a chain reaction and cause you to bleed!
“Hold on tight――No, that won’t work.”
“Whoa!”
Ban Yu-won lifted Light up with both arms.
Like the groom hugging the bride at a wedding!
“half?!”
“It goes fast.”
The moment Ban Yu-won declared that and took a step forward, the surrounding scenery changed.
Of course, we were still inside the base, but we had moved at least several hundred meters… … almost to the ‘limit of visibility.’
“Teleportation! This!”
“Yeah, Blink.”
One of the concepts absorbed into the Origin Sword is spatial control.
Since the Origin Sword is a sword that can perceive all directions and exert influence outside the body, it can be seen as a perfect fit with the concept of spatial control.
And what was made possible by the completed Origin Sword was short-distance teleportation, or Blink.
I’ve heard from Yumina before how difficult Blink is.
I’ve heard that it’s considered the exclusive domain of those with telekinesis because it’s difficult to instantly grasp spatial coordinates and use telekinesis in a battle situation.
Since Ban Yu-won, who wields the Origin Sword, is virtually aware of the coordinates of all spaces that enter his field of vision at any given moment, there is no reason why he wouldn’t be able to blink when the concept of spatial control is added to this!
“You, you this――.”
“It’s still a secret. In fact, I’m not yet proficient enough to use it in combat.”
However, immediately after using Blink, there comes a moment when your spatial awareness becomes lax, and since you haven’t been able to correct this yet, it’s been difficult to use in real life.
But if it’s just to escape from the collapsing base, then by all means!
“We’ll go on from now on.”
“Wah! Wah, waaaaah!”
I really liked the way the lights would make a sound every time the view changed with each successive blink.
But right now there was no time to worry about him.
Just calculating how to move through space while passing through structures like steel plates and wires shooting out from all directions and the gaps in the electrical storm spreading out in all directions like spider webs is mind-boggling!
But this dramatic and tense escape came to a very abrupt end.
“Release guy, how much are you planning on swallowing―― Uwaaaah!”
“Whoa!”
Kwaaaaang!

Something huge fell down, breaking through the base ceiling without any warning!
However, Ban Yu-won’s eyes lit up as he looked at the blue sky revealed beyond the broken ceiling.
‘Outside… … now!’
The next moment, Ban Yu-won and Light were floating in the air.
When Ban Yu-won, who had finally managed to get out of the base, looked back, he saw a giant armored fox buried in the ground, destroying the base.
-Keeeek! Kieeeeeee!
It didn’t seem to be dead yet, but the moment it made contact with the base, it was over.
Because the fusion of release was reaching out to him too.
When the creature saw Ban Yu-won and Light appearing over its head, it violently resisted by spitting out venom in fits and starts, and then its entire body was torn apart by gravity and it sank into the base.
“Half-circle!”
“I’m glad you’re safe, Yuwon… … Light?”
The party members who had been chasing the foxes until now quickly approached Ban Yu-won and Light, who had escaped outside.
Even in the midst of his confusion, Light, who had been tightly holding Ban Yoo-won’s neck with both arms, realized Ruchel’s sharp gaze and hurriedly got away from him and stood on the floor.
“Hmm… … .”
“… … .”
But Ruchel’s gaze did not soften.
Since Ban Yoo-won is right in front of me, I can’t bring myself to react violently and just look at him with jealousy.
But Light could have made excuses, saying that there were various things going on, but strangely enough, he was calmly accepting Ruchel’s gaze.
It was natural for it to develop into a fierce snowball fight.
“What’s going on, Ban Yu-won?”
Ignoring the somewhat hostile exchange of glances between Ruchel and Light, Dokgoyeon opened his mouth.
Her gaze was fixed on the collapsing machine base, which was attracting a giant raccoon.
Ban Yu-won also ran away from the two people and responded while sticking to Dokgo Yeon.
“The battle is over. I have conquered the secret hidden in Room 95.”
“Is that the result? To be honest, it feels like a giant monster is going to appear inside there.”
“It’s okay because you’re on our side.”
“Our side?!”
Even as the group chatted, the terrible force emanating from the center of the base gradually expanded its range.
Room 94… … No, the entire machine field that made up Room 95 was shrinking and compressing towards the center of the base.
The armored beetles that have survived so far cannot be an exception to that.
It was a horrifying sight to see the insects, their bodies torn off by the force of the machine, squirming and dying on the floor.
“Oh, you guys go in first.”
Ban Yu-won collected all five of the Tike and machine subordinates into his inventory.
Eve, who was transforming into a giant armored tank, transformed into a wide-backed wyvern and took off into the sky carrying the entire group.
“Can I upload this…?”
“What are you talking about now? It was already edited when you sent out the machine followers.”
“Is that so too?”
It’s surprising how large the 95-room is.
The scene where the entire vast room was compressed into one point was simply impossible to broadcast.
“Just how great of a guy are you trying to be?”
“Shishit… … .”
Eve made a pouty expression at Ban Yu-won’s muttering.
This is because he was sure that Lilith, who was more intense than him, would eat everything and emerge stronger than him.
“It’s okay, you’re still the oldest.”
“Shishishit.”
“Yeah, yeah, that’s good.”
As I was stroking Eve’s nape and comforting her, the moment finally came.
The moment when everything in Room 95, which was covered in metal and wires, was condensed into one point inside the base.
Once again, light exploded and turned the world white!
And what appeared inside was――.
It was a huge spaceship.
* * *
After the Chain Room lost its source of existence and collapsed neatly, a very pleasant exploration ensued.
Even though there were machine-like forces, compared to the fierce battle that continued until Room 95, Room 96 and onwards was just a game.
The Rebellion party, who had broken through 100 rooms without stopping, resumed their exploration after taking a sufficient rest in Eden, and set a record by breaking through 30 more rooms in just ten days.
The rooms get bigger the higher you climb the tower, and considering that it takes a long time to shift, their exploration speed was overwhelming.
“How much is left?”
Dokgo Yeon, who was sitting in the center of the king-size bed in Room 130 Eden, crossed his legs and spoke.
The sight of him holding grapes in one hand and leisurely eating them one by one resembles a lazy and arrogant beast.
Ban Yu-won replied, thinking that his arrogant appearance really suited Dokgo Yeon well.
“About 12 hours from now. I spent a lot of time in the chain room.”
“… … That’s why I don’t understand. I thought there would be a treasure chest in Room 100.”
When the silver box came out in Room 90, everyone expected that Room 100 would come out as a treasure box with a silver box and gold or platinum frame, but that wasn’t the case.
Ban Yu-won guessed that the rewards in Eden had disappeared because the release had sucked up all the elements that made up Room 95, but he didn’t say anything.
“You don’t really care what comes out of the treasure chest anyway.”
“But.”
Dokgoyeon, who was rolling a grape in his mouth, responded with a glum expression.
No matter how much she pretends not to notice, Ban Yu-won knows that the moment the treasure chest is opened, her eyes will sparkle just like the rest of the group.
But I didn’t necessarily say this fact.
Yes, I’m going to die.
“Hoooo… … .”
If Dokgo Yeon took the bed, it was Light who took the sofa.
After taking a pleasant bath in the bathroom in Room 130, Light was seen lying on the sofa in pajamas that revealed her skin and letting out a lazy breath, which was quite alluring.
“Huh? What, why are you looking at me like that? I see you all the time in the dorms… … .”
Light noticed Ban Yoo-won’s gaze and smiled shyly before saying.
Immediately afterwards, Ban Yu-won’s vision darkened.
Ruchel, who had been giving him a lap pillow, blocked his view with one hand.
“If you look at things like that, your eyes will get worse, Yuwon.”
“That thing?! Ruchel, is that what you just said?!”
“I don’t know why you’re so excited, Light. Were you trying to show off? … … a washboard?”
“You, you! This isn’t it?! I was originally much――!”
This is not going to work, these guys.
First of all, they’re running wild together, ignoring even the fact that Light is a man.
But it was at that moment that Light went berserk and almost revealed his own identity.
A dazzling light began to pour out from his chest.
“What, another seizure?!”
“Ouch! La, Light. I’m sorry, I said something unnecessary… …!”
“You idiots, you should just rest, but you’re making a scene out of it!”
Everyone jumped up and gathered around Light, but Light, who was clutching the necklace on his chest, shook his head.
“Seizure, no. That’s not it… … distress signal.”
“Distress signal?”
“Yeah. A distress signal from our world.”
At Light’s words, everyone stopped moving in harmony.
I remember hearing that his dimension was always under threat from outside.
“I’m sorry, guys. I don’t think I can do the special activity….”
“Light.”
“Sorry, Ban.”
Light spoke without raising his head even when Ban Yoo-won called him.
“I invited you, but I ended up not taking you.”
“… … We can go next time, okay?”
“Yeah… … Then, I’m really sorry.”
Light’s appearance disappeared.
The remaining three exchanged brief glances before sighing and standing up from their seats.
“Shall we go out too?”
“It’s fortunate that it wasn’t done early on.”
“What could it be? I hope you come back safely… … .”
Even though there are 12 hours left, if you proceed without lights, it will be considered a retirement at that moment.
I couldn’t do something stupid like that, just because I felt like it was a waste of time.
But when the three of them went out of the tower, Yumina was waiting for them.
“Professor, the light… … .”
“I got permission to do that, it’s fine. But that’s not the issue right now.”
Yumina pointed to their student IDs with an urgent expression.
“The special activity site has been decided, but… … .”
Ban Yu-won checked his student ID.
-Thud, a thud was heard next to me.
E-1 was the dimension.
