Admission is a waste of time (96)
Lesson 20. Can the family be copied? – 6
It’s evening.
However, since there is still no night in this world, Ban Yu-won could only check the passage of time with his watch.
[Steals Air Pressure 16.]
“Oh, it went up by 1 again.”
Meanwhile, the Golem – the World Giant (I can’t call him Ymir) continued to attack Banyuwon with air pressure, and at some point, the depth of the pressure gradually increased.
The depth started at 10 and has increased to 16, which means the confrontation between the guy and Ban Yoo-won has become longer.
Let’s talk about this pneumatics.
Basically, this is the concept of volatility, like the magic that Ban Yuan emanates.
It reveals its power the moment it reaches its target point, and disappears after all the power contained within it has been consumed.
But when these things come together and are compressed, that is, when their purity increases, there is a sense of permanence there.
It could be seen that many of the concepts that the previous Ban Yu-won had collected at the Tower of Babel also gained permanence in this way.
“Should I slowly absorb it?”
– I don’t think I can do everything. Is the ice attribute already at its limit?
“huh.”
Have we been fighting for about 5 hours now?
During this time, the depth of elemental magic grew to 150 thanks to the ice magic absorbed from the frost giants.
Although it achieved a whopping 50% growth, the growth slowed down once it passed 140, and now, no matter how much it was absorbed, it showed no signs of growth, which clearly showed that there was a limit to repeatedly absorbing the same concept.
‘The original concept of the same monster being unable to absorb more than a certain amount was confirmed with the goblin… … .’
The same goes for life.
When I first absorbed the concept of the Frost Giants, it went up by a whopping 2 to 462, but now that I’ve killed over two hundred giants, it’s at 499.7.
The efficiency drops significantly once it exceeds 480, and drops below 0.1 once it exceeds 490.
The maximum lifespan a frost giant can reach is probably 500.
But I was wondering where this was.
It was already becoming increasingly difficult to grow in life, but thanks to these giants, I was able to grow by 40 in one breath, so I deserve to bow down to them.
“But it’s just the beginning.”
In fact, this Frost Giant Nogada wasn’t originally intended for Ban Yu-won’s growth alone.
Doesn’t he have an absurdly large number of followers to raise right now!
“First, Eve and Lilith, Tike first. Let’s get your lives to 300 today.”
“Shishishit!”
-Ppaaang!
-Wheein, clank clank
Eve and Lilith have reached depths of 250 and 220 respectively in their last top explorations.
Tyche has only recently been reborn as a proper servant, so she is only at level 120, but with the pure concept of the Frost Giants, she should be able to reach level 300 in no time.
It is probably no different for the soul.
[Steals Air Pressure 16.]
[Steel the Sharpener 5.]
“… … Those guys are also developing.”
-He ate a rock again!
-Father, the worm is eating the stone!
―You can’t keep eating! Take the sharp spear made from your father’s body!
-Throw it and throw it! Keep throwing it!
When he forgets, the air pressure falls from above his head, and the frost giants, who start out as [Stone 1] projectiles and then throw stones that look like spears or thorns.
Of course, from the perspective of a semi-professional, I am grateful that they keep giving me concepts!
“Then let’s start again.”
Ban Yu-won grinned and shot out ‘seven’ raindrops.
Five raindrops are used to repel the attacks of the frost giants and limit their movements, while the remaining two are used to pierce their vital points.
After concentrating on controlling the Storm Sword for several hours, I was now able to move it naturally and at will without even being conscious of each individual entity.
Ban Yu-won killed two more giants in one breath to get the concept, then nodded and took out the eighth raindrop from his inventory.
After all, the best way to improve your skills and materials is to practice hard!
* * *
It’s quite terrifying that the color of the sky doesn’t change with the passage of time, Ban Yu-won thought as he looked up at the sky as if it were someone else’s business.
It was the exact same sky as when I first came in, but it was now 11 PM.
Oh, another attack is coming.
[Steals Air Pressure 22.]
‘If I use up all the air pressure I’ve accumulated so far and fire a single blow, I think I’ll be able to defeat even the world’s giants in one shot.’
Of course, I wouldn’t do something so pitiful.
As I gradually worked for over 10 hours, unnecessary noise began to creep into Ban Yu-won’s mind.
In the past, the only thing I had to do while playing the game was move my fingers, but now I had to deal with concepts flying in from all directions and move the Rain Sword with my mental power, so I was starting to feel quite stressed.
“Shit!”
“Huh? You got 300?”
“Shhh!”
Then Eve brought some welcome news.
Not only life, but also all the concepts that could be strengthened with the concepts that could be obtained from them, including soul, were being strengthened, but all of them reached their limits.
“Okay. Let’s try harder!”
Not long after, the release, and another hour later, Tike and everyone else reached 300 life and 200 soul.
Of course, the combat concept is somewhat behind the core concepts that have grown rapidly, but if we organize it and put it into practice, we will be able to catch up quickly.

―It’s hard for me to just watch. Are you out of your mind? Are you going to keep doing this crazy thing?
“Selon, there are no limits to humans. Even when I was physically and mentally normal, I fought a battle that lasted 37 hours.”
With your fingers.
-What? Was Earth such a scary place?!
“I was nothing on the organized Earth. That place is full of people who fight desperately without sleep for at least three days, or even up to a week.”
With your fingers.
―Ugh, even if you return to Earth later, you’ll leave me behind at the Academy…
“We should go together. Maybe you will like Earth too.”
– A den of such crazy monsters?
Thanks to Selon talking to me periodically, my mental stress was being alleviated to some extent.
Ban Yu-won muttered as he shot a stream of rain at the frost giants that were falling from the armpits of the world giant.
“Now that I’ve finished raising Tike, I need to properly raise the Storm Sword.”
-I think I’m going crazy! I think I’m going crazy!
“Do you think you can do the same to them when you’re just watching?”
Ban Yu-won retrieved the Storm Sword and the Concept, and pointed to the Frost Giants still roaring on the ground.
They must have realized that simply throwing spears wasn’t enough, because they were mixing rocks with the cold they contained, and were throwing them to create rather decent weapons.
[Sharpening 10, Ice Curse 5]
“Oh, what is it?”
Then, at some point, the spears they were throwing were mixed with a curse.
It’s the original purpose, and dwarves and other beings in Norse mythology are really fond of curses, but who would have thought they’d mix ice and curses and shoot them together?
What if the collection grows again at this point!
―… … Hey, can you give that to me?
“Didn’t you just say you were going crazy?”
-I think I’ll come to my senses if you give me that.
“Yes, but from now on I will teach you curses as well.”
In this case, as I became deeply involved in curses and curses, I decided that I needed to have a solid understanding of this field in order to prepare for it.
Fortunately, Celon seems to have some knowledge of curses, so he decided to take advantage of this opportunity to delve deeper into them.
-So how long are you going to do this?
“There is no end to hard work, Celon. There is only a brief respite.”
-Don’t talk like a proverb, you idiot.
Ban Yu-won grinned as he shot out ‘ten’ raindrops.
Somehow, it felt like I was training my mental strength.
* * *
It’s 11 o’clock on Saturday night.
All the frost giants are dead.
Even the world’s giants stopped in their tracks.
“… … .”
―… … .
―… … .
I had a feeling something was a little strange about an hour ago.
As the number of Frost Giants was decreasing, the rate at which the World Giants were producing new Frost Giants was strangely slowing down.
I felt anxious, but I had no choice but to continue to beat him diligently.
Who would have thought that the productivity of the world’s giants would have been limited!
First Raindrop [Magic Sword 140, Life 140, Soul 60, Swordsmanship 15, Resonance 28, Unity 5]
“If I do this, I’ll go out, but this… … .”
Ban Yu-won was looking at the options for the Rain Sword, which had not yet achieved its target.
Thanks to fighting for over 30 hours using only the Heavy Rain Sword, not only had my swordsmanship and resonance grown significantly, but I was also able to greatly increase my magic sword, life, and soul, as well as all twenty-five rain streams, but it still seemed like I could pull out more.
“Did you get hurt?”
-What are you talking about out of the blue?
―… … .
I tried to chant the forbidden spell just in case, but the world giant still didn’t move.
Only then did Ban Yu-won admit that his hard work was over.
‘It’s fortunate that the Rain Sword is now able to operate autonomously to some extent.’
When I first used the Heavy Rain Sword in real combat, it felt like Ban Yu-won was controlling it directly, but now I can designate a rough action pattern with just a simple thought.
Of course, it was less precise than when he directly controlled the sword of the beheader, but just as AlphaGo diversified its action patterns after playing countless games of Go, the rain sword also accumulated dozens of hours of battle data and began to show quite realistic movements!
However, the number of rain swords he could handle at once still remained at 12.
I don’t know if it’s the limit of his soul or the limit of resonance… … but from now on, I’ll have to work hard to increase the number one by one.
-Guaaaa… … .
At that time, Ban Yu-won was evaluating the results of his hard work and performing acrobatic flights of twelve raindrops.
The world giant that had been still until now began to move again, making a sound.
-Kwaaaaaaaah!
I thought so, but he hit his head on the ground and fell down dead.
“… … .”
―… … .
As Ban Yu-won and Celon watched in amazement, the mouth of the dead world giant opened and blood flowed out, forming rivers and seas, and two eyes fell out of their sockets and rose into the sky, one becoming a bright star and the other a dark star, dividing day and night.
Flesh instantly rots and decays to form the earth, bones and teeth become minerals and jewels… … The creation of heaven and earth as it occurred in the Norse creation myth is recreated in its entirety.
It was truly spectacular.
“Wow, if they uploaded this video to the Rebellion channel, it would be a huge hit.”
-Yeah, but I guess I’ll have to edit out the part where the giant commits suicide.
With those words, Ban Yu-won and Celon fell silent again.
Of course, he did not forget to retrieve the concept of the dead World Giants during that time.
Perhaps the purest collection of concepts in this space!
[Steals 50 Life, 50 Giant, 25 Flesh, 30 Ice Magic, 25 Soul, 1 Manifestation, and 1 Death. Giant, Manifestation, and Death are concepts that humans cannot possess.]
There was no need to show it as a concept!
It was my first time understanding the concept of death, and indeed.
It was a concept that could be obtained by making the enemy commit suicide!
‘This is so gross.’
Ban Yu-won was wondering what to do with this confusing concept, so he decided to just stick it in the code core.
It is an extremely dangerous power that even Dokgo Yeon can only temporarily generate and manipulate by utilizing his own martial arts skills.
It was clear that it was not a concept that could be lightly bestowed upon something else.
There were other important concepts as well.
It’s just a mess.
‘This is the concept that Eve is holding. I could give it to Eve as is, but… … .’
In fact, Ban Yu-won had tried to separate a part of Eve’s concept of the universe.
The result was a spectacular failure.
It has already become a core concept that constitutes Eve along with the concept of redemption, so it is impossible to separate just a part of it.
So would it be wise to just give Eve this newfound concept of omnipresence?
Even so, Eve only grows by 1 and that’s it?
-Bang!
It was then that Lilith asserted her existence.
In fact, I was thinking that either Ban Yu-won or Tike would be able to absorb Man-byeon.
-I am?
“Selone, you’re Inma, your junior. This is the order of precedence.”
―You really think you can conquer the Tower of Babel with that old way of thinking! Society is a meritocracy, and skill is everything!
“Yeah, the release right now is more helpful than yours~.”
-Ahhh!
Ban Yu-won eventually gave Man-byeon to Lilith.
In fact, unlike Eve, I had a slight thought that Lilith might not be able to accept all the changes, but the mutant who is currently very active has done something this time too.
[Grants the target a multitude of changes. The effect of the mutation grants the target the potential for new changes, resulting in a fundamental mutation!]
[All concepts possessed by the target are combined into one. The individuality and characteristics of all concepts centered around the Manbyeon are fused to create a being with a unique concept. However, it takes a considerable amount of time to upgrade.]
“ah.”
In an instant, Release’s entire body crumpled and transformed into the shape of a giant metal egg.
Ban Yu-won, who was thrown into the air while riding the release, quickly reached out and put the guy in his inventory, then used elemental magic to create a platform of air to prevent his fall.
-I wish it had just fallen down.
“I don’t want to bathe in the blood of a giant who committed suicide.”
But who would have thought that it would evolve to release through mutation?
It was a good thing I cut off all contact with the constellations when I entered the tower alone.
Otherwise, the constellations would have caused trouble again!
-Wooooow
“huh?”
Is this really the end of the world?
Of course not.
It was the world that was vibrating.
“Surely not Shift?”
-You, brace yourself for the shock.
At that moment, when Selon’s words made him want to fasten his seatbelt, Ban Yuwon tense up his whole body and became nervous.
A huge pressure surged from all sides, crushing his entire body.
The next moment, Ban Yu-won was thrown out in front of the tower’s entrance.
“… … Retire?”
– No, it just seems like the tower kicked you out? It didn’t actually damage you.
In fact, if you look at his student ID, his solo exploration level is listed as 10, not 0.
It seems that after breaking through the sections corresponding to rooms 1 to 9, it has been determined that room 10 has been reached.
– My guess is this. The next room isn’t ready yet. Maybe the changes will start there from now on?
“Oh, that could be true. You’re smart.”
-Sorry, I was just saying. This is my first time doing this.
“Phone knock knock… … .”
Ban Yu-won looked up at the tower that was still standing there without any change and tried to enter the tower again, but he could not enter, even if Celon’s words were true.
Ban Yu-won, who finished his first solo exploration with a feeling of incomplete combustion, returned to his room with a dissatisfied face and lay stretched out on the bed until the time for his date with Ruchel arrived.
[The achievement of killing giants has been reflected, and the depth of honor has become 80. The depth of soul has become 700.]
That was also why he passed over the minor changes in his body’s concepts without noticing them.
