Admission is a waste of time (220)
Lesson 43. Too popular – 5
By the time the group reached the tower, the whirlpools swirling in all directions had quieted down.
It was not that it lost its power and disappeared.
I just started to focus my power on the tower in front of me.
“This, this wind could it be… the merciful north wind?”
“Ugh, it’s over. Everyone’s going to die. God himself is coming down!”
As they watched the winds containing the power of the constellations fly in from the vortex collapsing here and there and being absorbed by the tower in the center of the holy place, the humans began to tremble in fear, forgetting that they had just emerged from the vortex.
“Do not be afraid. They are too afraid of death to show their true selves to us!”
But Light rebuked the people who were stepping back hesitantly.
Strangely enough, those words brought everyone to their senses and they all drew their weapons.
By that point, it was already close to brainwashing.
“It’s strange. I personally think that what Light just said makes sense… … but strangely enough, I feel like denying what he said.”
Ruchel said with a mysterious expression as he watched Light quickly grab the NPCs and get into a battle stance.
Ban Yu-won consoled Ruchel and said:
“Your brain, which makes decisions based on data accumulated from your experiences with Light, is struggling to respond to sudden input errors. In technical terms, it’s called Light Syndrome.”
“Technical terms? How dare you say such nonsense.”
Dokgo Yeon, who was equally as unable to handle the current light, narrowed his eyes as he spoke, and Ban Yu-won shrugged his shoulders and responded.
“I majored in light studies and got my PhD last semester, so of course it’s a technical term, right?”
“Master, what about Ruchelhak? Yes?”
“Hey, be quiet! There’s no way I need to study to analyze that piece of shit!”
Even though all the other members of Rebellion except Light were suffering from Light Syndrome and were unable to come to their senses, Light raised his holy sword high and shouted again.
“All who have the will to stand against God, come forward! Let us destroy that monstrosity!”
“Woooooooooooooooo!”
Light’s appearance as he led the people and bravely charged toward the tower was as brave as Don Quixote charging toward windmills.
And they were completely consistent in that they bounced off the target without even leaving a scratch.
“Tch, is that a barrier?”
Unable to see through the ominous aura rising from the tower, Light backed away and muttered, biting his lip.
When Ban Yu-won heard that, he was dumbfounded and responded.
“Then wouldn’t there be a boundary for a sacred object like that?”
“Master, that… … !”
Then Ruchel grabbed his sleeve and pointed forward.
“What’s going on again?” asked Ban Yu-won, looking back at the tower and sighing.
“under.”
Light protected himself with the Holy Sword’s aura at the moment of clash, but the other humans did not.
They thought it was dangerous and tried to retreat when they saw the light in the lead bounce off, but the tower instead used its gravitational force to pull them in.
They were dragged into the tower without even offering a single bit of resistance… … .
-Crunch
-Krrrrr… … .
The next moment, monsters imbued with the magic of the constellations appeared as if to replace them.
Perhaps this is the end that the overconfident transcendentals reach when they try to emulate the Tower of Babel.
A face that resembles half lizard and half monkey, with dark skin and long fingernails.
A yellow, bulging, reptilian eyeball that looks like it might burst at any moment.
“Those things, surely… … .”
Dokgo Yeon muttered, biting her lip.
Even without anyone having to explain it to us, everyone was thinking the same thing right now.
Ban Yu-won also became convinced after seeing that all the monsters were covered in the wind that originated from the power of the constellation.
That what is happening now is ‘irregular’.
“Damn it… … I was planning on using them as the cornerstone of my country’s foundation!”
“Light, you can’t build a country on your own inside the tower!”
-Kuwaaaaaaaah!
The moment Ban Yu-won retorted to Light’s barking with barking, the monsters swarmed all at once!
“Die as a human being!”
Light’s holy sword split the space apart, slicing apart anything that entered its path, and Ruchel fired lightning balls from the tips of her nine tails, stunning and burning them.
Meanwhile, Dokgo Yeon killed them one by one by continuously shooting the death aura focused on one point, and Ban Yu-won… … .
I took advantage of the gap in the group’s fighting to rush towards the tower.
“Half-yu-won!”
“The key to this room is this tower. In order to clear it, you have to solve the tower, whether you die or become food!”
A tangible magical force engulfed the half-human who had returned to hover bike form in the blink of an eye as he reached the top.
After searching through the concepts contained in magic, he found the answer he was looking for and smiled.
“I’ll be back in a bit. Don’t worry and wait!”
“You’re going in? Just a moment, Ban Yu-won!”
“Master?!”
Ban Yu-won, who had declared this to his party, grabbed the long, tentacle-like stems of the stigmata that stretched out and wrapped around him and was sucked into the tower.
What greeted him immediately afterwards was… …as expected, I should say.
It was a space filled with light, something I had experienced before.
Constellation transformation.
A space of choice temporarily created within the tower by the combined power of countless constellations.

“Ugh, ugh… … .”
“I can’t breathe… … .”
The NPCs that had been sucked into the tower earlier were rolling around on the floor, groaning in pain.
Those guys and the monsters were separate entities.
In fact, Ban Yu-won was convinced from the moment he glanced at their concept with the Origin Sword, but he thought there was no need to say anything, so he kept his mouth shut.
“Is this… a space created to make contact with me?”
Ban Yu-won gave the answer.
-similar.
The owner of the voice that gave off a strong sense of power answered.
Ban Yu-won nodded and answered as he saw a brightly shining ball of light flying and dancing before his eyes.
“You are the merciful north wind.”
―?! How did you find out!
―His power is most suitable to be called a Root Seeker.
―He has shown a movement to interpret the tower from the beginning. He holds the greatest potential among mortals.
-We have to burn them to death.
-Yes, thanks to you, everyone has come to realize his existence and secrets once again.
Orbs of light containing the will of the constellations appeared here and there… … Yes, they really did rise from all directions and surrounded Banyuwon.
It seemed as if the NPCs were rolling on the floor in agony, unable to overcome the energy emitted by the constellations.
Yeah, I guess so.
The constellations were trying to summon only one Ban Yu-won from the beginning, and they probably weren’t interested in anyone else.
‘It was strange that all the monsters that jumped out of the tower were wrapped in wind, and only wind. There were definitely a lot of other constellations gathered in Room 145… … So when I went in myself, this is what it looked like.’
After finishing his thoughts, Ban Yu-won clicked his tongue and replied.
“Top wouldn’t like this.”
-We don’t like towers that much either.
―But no matter how much you hate it, no matter how scared you are, there are times when you can’t back down. Little human, you made us go out.
―Ah, my lovely child! Now I can see you again!
I wondered why Kira (the observer of the universe) didn’t appear when there were so many constellations gathered together.
Ban Yu-won sighed and waved his hand as if to ward off the huge cloud of light that suddenly rose from the ground and filled his eyes.
“I heard that you have to use up a lot of market share to do something like this.”
―It’s not easy to design an encounter from the beginning. But it’s easy to create a gap in a room that’s already been formed plausibly. Yes, the tower you saw from outside was originally part of the room.
The constellation that rules over the desert area that formed the background of this room… … In other words, the benevolent North Wind, who could be seen as the host of this place, explained to him in a rather kind tone.
However, Ban Yu-won couldn’t help but tilt his head after hearing his words.
“But you made the tower, right?”
-Yeah, I made it.
“No, this was originally part of the room. How is that possible… … Wait a minute.”
I just felt like I just casually found out some big secret about the tower.
The merciful North Wind said that it was created before the Ban Yu-won party entered the tower… …so before the creation of this 149th room.
This means that the tower does not create a new environment each time, but copies an environment from another dimension!
-No, no. I think you’re misunderstanding something, so let me correct you.
“hmm?”
―No matter how much of a failure it is, this tower is not something that can be easily copied. It is the original.
Perhaps the merciful North Wind is one of the more moderate constellations among the many.
Because the other constellations are kindly explaining things to humans who look down on them.
But the content was so shocking that Ban Yu-won couldn’t even respond properly.
“So… … the original?”
-Yes. The original.
“You didn’t copy and paste, you cut and pasted?”
– That’s correct. Otherwise, no matter how great the tower is, it wouldn’t be able to control countless virtual spaces.
“haha…….”
A dry laugh came out on its own.
It seems reasonable, since it would save resources and be easy to manage.
My mind became dizzy when I thought about what would happen to the world if part of the dimension was cut off.
No, maybe it was in this room that people were crying out for destruction to come… … .
‘This content cannot be uploaded to the Rebellion channel.’
As I was shaking my head, thinking about something stupid, a bead of light different from the merciful north wind flew before my eyes and flashed loudly.
―Hey, this isn’t the time for some lame explanation. Aren’t we here to waste our precious share to decide what to do with this human?
-They said we should burn them to death!
-If you want to kill my child, you must first find a way to avoid my sight!
―I told you he’s a funny guy. It won’t be easy just to endure the sanctuary, but he’s looking straight at us…
“Be quiet!”
The sanctuary, which had been heated up by the roar of the constellations at the rebuke of Ban Yu-won, suddenly quieted down.
The constellations must have felt the power contained in his voice, the vitality that influenced even beings far greater than themselves.
―How dare humans… … us.
“If you have any business, tell me quickly.”
As Ban Yu-won declared in a cold voice, some of the constellations became enraged and started to run wild again.
But Ban Yu-won just laughed.
“I know you guys don’t have much influence on me right now anyway. So if you have something to say… … No. Do you need me right now?”
-Need it? We want you?
“If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t have tried again after failing once in Room 145.”
The divine subordination that tests humanity, the gathering light, the rampant stigmata.
Without even thinking too deeply, the 145-room Colosseum was a space with the perfect conditions for a sanctuary to be built.
However, before it could achieve its intention, it was shattered by Light’s holy sword.
The bewildered constellations regrouped and summoned Ban Yu-won using a more blatant tactic.
“You guys, you’ve lived so long, but you’re not that deep or wise. It’s obvious to me that you’re thinking the same thing. So I’ll ask you again.”
What do you want from me?
The constellations did not respond for a moment to Ban Yu-won’s question.
No… … Just one person, a light orb that seemed to be a follower of the constellation Prominence’s patron, Eon-geop, was flying around for a long time, but no one paid any attention to him.
-Make a contract with me and conquer the tower.
He started to repeat the same old story every time an observer from Manan showed up.
– Step back, Grandma. Now is not the time to satisfy personal desires.
-Huh, but everyone wants to make a contract with him. How can we destroy the tower if we don’t unite like this?
“Destroy the tower? Is that your ultimate goal?”
―As you can see, opinions are divided. This is also the reason why the constellations fight each other. But what is clear is that we all see in you… … Yes, compared to when we first entered the tower, we see a particularly large and certain possibility.
If so, you’ve got the wrong number.
I don’t know if I’ll get the tower back, but I have no intention of destroying it.
… … I think there’s a bit more to think about, like cutting out a part of the dimension and pasting it inside my tower.
-Kwaaaaang!
The space shook violently as the half-moon and the constellations were in a strange confrontation.
The merciful North Wind smiled awkwardly and said:
-That woman is like a man, but she’s surprisingly strong. She’s running wild and trying to break the tower.
―Tsk, I still have a lot to tell this guy!
-Retire him!
– That’s because it’s hard. Or is there anyone who wants to waste even one more share?
-You should have gotten to the point first.
Another constellation appeared before my eyes.
– Hand over the Starlight Player, and I will make you the master of the new world. The absolute majority of the constellations will support you.
-Tear down the tower and establish a new order. We are satisfied with just regaining our freedom.
―It’s an unimaginable condition. No one will be able to go against you!
Oh my, you’re sneakily talking to the scales.
I could tell without even asking who the Starlight Player was talking about.
Celon, you had a pretty good nickname.
“I mean, the Starlight Player.”
– Don’t act like a fool. I don’t know what you did, but I know you’re in this together. The light you and that girl created on Earth has spread throughout the universe.
―It’s a simple condition. If you nod, we’ll do something about the guy who’s struggling over there right now. Whether inside or outside the tower, we’ll support you without sparing any share.
―This is the first time since the tower was built that so many constellations have come together to pledge their support. No matter how great your potential is, if we only look at your abilities right now, this is a contract that will be extremely disadvantageous for us.
―I hope you don’t refuse. We really don’t want to lose a talent like you… … We really don’t want to.
―The flames of the followers of the eons will be too hot for you to stop alone.
Now I know why there are followers of ten thousand years in this place.
The bastard’s presence was the stick of the carrot and the stick.
A simple yet effective means of teasing the enemy with kind words while also subtly threatening them by reminding them of the existence of a powerful enemy.
Ban Yu-won snorted.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t sell my subordinates.”
-foolish!
Kwaaaaaaaah!
As if it knew his mind, the tower shook again at the exact moment he declined the offer.
No, it doesn’t end with a simple vibration.
The space that was filled with the light emitted by the constellations began to crack and distort one by one!
“Ha, there’s no way Light would do something so tactful. Are you really going to leave it like this?”
-You! Do you think we looked down on you because we treated you well?
―I showed the utmost sincerity I could! And yet I bowed my head like this!
Ban Yu-won, who was seriously contemplating and waving his hands here and there, created a barrier to block the threats and physical attacks of the constellations.
Soon, the space was completely torn apart, and a desert sandstorm blew in.
Just as he was about to leave, sweeping away the indescribable curses and fragments of small powers, a light orb flew towards Ban Yu-won, ‘jumping over the moment’.
―Keep your promise from that time. I guess I’ll see you again next time. I look forward to the day I get to fight you.
“you……!”
The crystal of power that flew in without any conditions was absorbed by Ban Yu-won.
Ban Yu-won’s eyes were filled with emotion as he realized the identity.
The moment you acquire the absolute power of space-time, the ‘gap’, which allows you to create a rift in time and penetrate the enemy’s weak points.
The ‘One Who Measures Moments’, who had promised to grant power to the previous Ban Yu-won if he had another chance, has finally put a passing necklace around his neck!
