Admission is a waste of time (284)
Lesson 55. Center of the Tower – 4
The giant snake continued to chase and block the group, turning into a giant bird, a barrier, and then back into a wave.
But no one could dare catch up with Lilith, the self-proclaimed fastest spaceship, as she raced along at full speed.
The problem was its scale.
“Gyaaaah! The ground fell away in chunks and turned black!”
“Light, since when did you start screaming like a woman? I even saw you sneakily grabbing the master’s collar.”
“Oh, no? I didn’t catch it?”
“Hey, now is not the time to fight over such trivial things. Just look straight ahead.”
Ban Yu-won’s prediction that everything in the world would become an enemy was correct.
The power of the Observer of the Ten Thousand Eyes was so great that it made one wonder how the NPCs had managed to survive by hiding in their hideouts all this time―― The curse spread all over the world, and in the blink of an eye, a perfectly good piece of land would become part of a black wave that would rise like a tidal wave, making it difficult to lower the spaceship’s altitude.
The world turns black.
As if his body was warmed by seeing the half-circle, the stigmata, the crystal of the power of the constellations, were granted in real time, and more and larger wave lines arose and chased after him.
“I’m going to go crazy. I’ve managed to survive in this environment so far without getting crushed.”
What do you call a tsunami that is several kilometers high?
Ban Yu-won decided to name what he saw beyond the spaceship monitor a disaster.
The tidal wave, which was growing larger and larger by fusing everything in its path into its body, seemed to have gained an ego due to the influence of the constellations, and opened its sticky mouth like tar wide and fired magical bullets containing both mass and curses like a machine gun.
[It’ll be a little crazy!]
However, the legendary genius pilot Lilith seemed to think they were playing some kind of shooting game, as he increased his speed and leisurely passed through the countless pouring bullets, emitting psychedelic lights inside the spaceship and getting excited.
“I guess he wasn’t finishing it. As Won said at the beginning, this is Nodaji.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
There is no way that there would be nothing in a world where a being like the observer of ten thousand eyes is directly exerting its power.
Of course, in reality, it all happened in the past, in a different dimension than the tower… … .
‘So did the past observer of the ten thousand eyes get what he wanted in this dimension? No, is the fact that a part of that dimension is being reproduced here now proof that the tower came and stopped him before he could get what he wanted?’
Otherwise, there is a possibility that the observer of Manan joined hands with the tower from the beginning.
Anyway, what’s important now is this room.
Aside from the concepts of collapse and fusion, Ban Yu-won’s intuition―no, his power―was telling him that there was definitely something he could gain from this place.
But, as I said again and again, the room is very large.
The best way would have been to search by scanning with a ticket, but since he noticed the ticket and is acting up like that, letting him go outside defenselessly isn’t a good idea either.
“Ugh. Do I have to think about it again?”
Even in my opinion, the Light Seal Sword that I showed off against the Black Wave earlier――no, the Requiem Minor copy throw was pretty good.
Thanks to his grandfather, he was able to properly handle the spirits, and with his potential to create and handle even temporary, rare concepts, he could have a chance of winning against any enemy, no matter how large they were.
… … No, but is this really room 201?
“Tsk.”
It was at that moment that Ban Yu-won, who had roughly organized a list of concepts he could create and handle in his head, took out the talisman and held it in his hand to replenish his lack of energy.
He gives a sense of stability to the group with his calm expression whenever and wherever―― Although he often looks a bit silly when it comes to Ban Yoo-won, the expression on Dokgo Yeon’s face, who is the most reliable among the group, has changed completely.
“Wait a minute, this feeling… … .”
“Huh? Did any other descendants appear besides that tsunami?”
“No, it’s not the energy of the constellation.”
Dokgo Yeon trailed off.
She made a complicated expression for a moment, then stopped talking and seemed to stare into empty space, then sighed and placed her hand on the dashboard.
“I think I know how this dimension came to an end. Scrap, go where I tell you to go.”
[Scrap metal?!]
Dokgoyeon calmly gave directions while the release, which earned the most humiliating nickname, headbanged the entire spaceship.
Since Ban Yu-won’s followers were also unable to open up to Dokgo Yeon, they simply followed her orders and proceeded in the opposite direction.
[Huh?]
“ah.”
Lilith, as well as the half-human who resonated with her, naturally became aware of its existence.
After increasing the speed and engaging in a tense chase with the black tidal wave rising from all directions and covering us for about 10 minutes,
“There’s a barrier. But it’s not a magical barrier… … .”
[If I had to say, it’s similar to the cursed energy that fills this world?]
“It’s witchcraft.”
Dokgo Yeon spoke bluntly.
The aura she emitted――surprisingly, it was not the aura of death, but a unique internal energy that Ban Yu-won had never seen before, flowing out from her and covering the entire spaceship, which helped the spaceship enter without colliding with the barrier.
Hae-il tried to rush in after them, but was blocked and unable to break through the barrier.
――――――――――!
“oh–.”
I turned my gaze away, hearing a scream that I couldn’t quite make out.
Beyond that is a surprisingly complete otherworld.
Mountain ranges and rivers that appear to have preserved their natural state from thousands of years ago, with no trace of destruction.
I felt a strong vitality and a terrifyingly pure energy.
The release hastily slowed down, allowing the group to slowly admire the small world within the barrier.
Ban Yu-won shuddered as he felt something similar to what he had felt in the ruins of Planet Galahad in this space.
“There is a tendency in the Shinto religion to try to solve everything by force, so they don’t deal with sorcery that deeply.”
It was a remark that seemed to be aimed at Asha in the past, who had said that it was natural for there to be a barrier in the upper dimensions to block intruders.
“Since ancient times, we have studied methods to subdue the sorcery of those who practice sorcery in order to easily deal with them. The internal energy I just discussed is also an internal energy that is solely for destroying sorcery.”
“Somehow it broke through quickly.”
“It’s the ability of the Hyeonshin Gong. If you learn just a little, you can do it too.”

Dokgo Yeon, who had been responding briefly to his exclamation, returned to the main topic.
“Witchcraft, the art of twisting the laws of nature by using characters and objects that contain strong human intentions. It’s similar to your ability. So during the vacation, I tried to look into a school that deals with witchcraft… … Big.”
Dokgo Yeon, who had been smiling happily for a moment at the thought of giving a gift to Ban Yu-won, cleared his throat and cleared his throat when he realized the current situation.
Ban Yu-won decided to forget the cute yet scary story he had just heard.
“It’s a barrier created by sorcery. And that too… … It seems to be a sorcery that has its roots in the same dimension I come from.”
“then.”
“Of course, this is not my home dimension. It’s just that the sorcery here… … is like that.”
“It must have been stolen from my origins,” Dokgoyeon said calmly.
To be honest, I wasn’t that surprised.
The Demon King of Dimension A-4 who knew and coveted the martial arts of the Murim.
People from another dimension, including Ryu Cheol-myeong, who had mastered martial arts that were not even that advanced, but who were arrogant and didn’t know how to act.
Dokgoyeon, who was extremely sensitive about protecting his martial arts skills and had a strong sense of pride that his own level of martial arts was the only one that was complete and perfect, yet tried to hide his level of origin…
If in the past, there had already been an outflow of martial arts or sorcery from her dimension――the martial arts world, and a great commotion had occurred in the process, then it would have been understandable that the martial arts world had been belatedly locked down.
“Then, was the observer of Manan also coveting that… … ?”
“That’s right. I should have known from the moment I first saw the flock of birds. It seems clear that the ancient sorcery from the martial arts world was at the center of the commotion that occurred in this dimension in the past. In the end, no one would have been able to obtain it. The curse they hold is only a fragment of it.”
Listening to her words, Ban Yu-won was convinced that the breakthrough for this room was within this space.
However, the annoying thing is that, if Dokgoyeon hadn’t been there, even Ban Yuwon would have had a hard time finding the answer to the question in the room… … and it just so happened that it was prepared right when Rebellion and his party entered the tower.
Isn’t this too bad for them?
Otherwise――is it good for Toph?
– As expected, my child is smart!
There was a voice answering the question that was not even asked.
The moment I looked back with a start.
Boom!
A door inside the spaceship burst open, releasing dozens of black tentacles.
One of the party was a mass of tentacles that flicked its tongue as if it was going to devour them, but Lilith quickly created a barrier out of the shattered fragments and blocked it.
As a member of the Banyuwon clan, she was able to control the power of the Requiem main body, not even a replica, so even the tentacles couldn’t easily break it.
―That’s right, the tower was trying to make you do what you wanted. This is my first time coming here, too. The joy of conquering the unknown! My kind child led me here.
Ban Yu-won sighed as he saw all the NPCs inside the safe room turn into one big black slime.
Asha screamed in anger as she realized that the NPCs had disappeared without a trace.
“you—-!”
“Calm down, Asha. It seems like they were hopeless from the start.”
From the beginning? Asha understood what he said right away and frowned.
The True Dragon Sword in her hand had transformed into a sharp spear, mixing all of her emotions and magical powers and refining them into a destructive aura.
“Surely from the moment we entered the room?”
“We said it among ourselves. It’s amazing that it’s been holding on without ending until now. But actually… … it was over a long time ago.”
Even with the power of the half-human being to read the concepts inside the body, he failed to notice that the NPCs had already been consumed by the curse.
But I had my doubts that if the land, buildings, mountains, and rivers that had been fine just a moment ago were transformed into waves of curse, then wouldn’t it be the same for people?
So, wasn’t it that they released the NPCs, put them in one room, and kept them under surveillance?
“I thought there was some meaning to the NPCs following me here, but it turns out they were already finished a long time ago… … .”
“Yes. Except for this space protected by magic… … that is.”
Dokgo Yeon answered Asha, who was mumbling absentmindedly, in a cold voice and then boldly swung his sword.
Because the amount was not that large to begin with, the cursed lumps that originated from the NPCs’ bodies were unable to avoid her sword strikes and were all cleanly destroyed.
Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s all over.
Once the observer of Manan realized the existence of the barrier and the location of the space beyond it, he would immediately break the barrier and chase after it.
Asha muttered, biting her lip.
“When you first saw them, you should have killed the NPCs right away?”
“It may be that the tower or the constellations intended to make us suffer and feel bad.”
Ban Yu-won spoke calmly, looking ahead instead of the monster that disappeared without leaving a trace.
“In fact, the moment we found this barrier, the constellations would have been able to figure out its location. So there’s no need to worry about it.”
“That’s right. The constellations left them in human form just to observe us closely and agitate us.”
When Ban Yu-won first met the NPCs, he thought that perhaps this reunion would contain a theme that would run through the tower―― but that was as expected.
The tower and the constellations just love to toy with climbers.
It could be that she understood Asha’s feelings of empathy towards the NPC.
“The barrier will collapse soon. Before that happens, let’s get everything we can.”
On the other hand, Ruchel remained positive.
Where she pointed with her finger.
Ban Yu-won nodded as he discovered the magnificent temple that appeared between the valleys of the huge mountains.
“As expected, Nodaji was Nodaji.”
Okay, then.
It is time to check what is contained in the relics that have been explored to the extent of a constellation, and even a tower, as if they were observers of the ten thousand eyes.
