Episode 126
“It was a rotten floor, but I can say one thing thanks to it.”
“Which one is it?”
“From now on, I will use everything that is available to me.”
“Having strong self-esteem. “Are you just saying that because of your pride that you were tied to this floor because of me?”
After hearing those words, I let go of Isabella’s wrist.
“Okay, at least you won’t be making excuses in the future. “Like you said, I have a lot of pride.”
I will continue to climb Crown Road and have a hard time trusting anyone.
Isabella’s influence still remains on me, and what I’ve experienced so far has made me that way.
But that is the experience I have accumulated so far.
I decided not to deny myself any more of my experiences.
“You look a little more at ease.”
“I guess he was keenly aware that life sucks, so he was wise.”
After saying that, I went up the stairs.
Isabella didn’t catch me.
They just looked at me as if they were a little envious of me climbing the stairs, but even that disappeared when I was halfway up the stairs.
Lastly, she didn’t say anything more because she knew that no matter what she said, I would continue to climb Crown Road steadily.
“bye. “River Castle.”
Just a short goodbye.
That’s why I also climbed the last stairs without looking at her.
【congratulations. You have cleared the 36th floor for the 4th time.】
【’The owner of the 36th floor’ and ‘Eternity in Memories’ smiles a little and congratulates you on your clearing.】
A notification popped up announcing the end of the floor, and I immediately burst out laughing when I heard that I was on the 4th floor.
I didn’t spend much time on this floor, but I was caught up by another person.
‘I won.’
Thinking that it would be very difficult to clear this damn Crown Road in first place, I headed to the next floor again.
* * *
As I climbed up to the 36.5th and 37th floors, I extended my Aura detection to the entire area.
At that moment, one person was caught by my wide-open senses, and the other side responded as if they recognized me.
At the familiar response, I walked towards it.
“I didn’t know you would climb this fast.”
“Aren’t you really too slow?”
As soon as they met, the person who playfully scolded them was the Sword King.
She, who still had a bright smile on her pretty face, looked at me for a moment and asked as if she noticed something.
“It looks like a place name has been established. What name did you get?”
“Heavenly King.”
Since I had nothing to hide, I answered and she laughed when she heard the answer.
“That’s a name that suits you well.”
Hell or this guy, it’s the same thing.
“But now I’m more used to calling you Ha Cheon-seong. Can I keep calling you that?”
“do whatever you want.”
“Yes, thank you. It’s okay for you to call me by my name too. “When we’re together, we call each other by our first names.”
“Nope.”
When she drew a line at the Sword King who was trying to sneak in her as a colleague, she licked her lips with regret.
Then, as if he sensed something strange, the Sword King tilted his head to the side.
“For some reason you don’t get irritated. “You always get angry or irritated when I say things like this.”
“Do I look like some kind of evil spirit?”
“normally? You are climbing the tower alone in the first place. So I thought it was natural that you were sensitive. Because I’ve seen it so much. “People who climb the tower alone gradually become unable to endure it and become broken.”
The Sword King had said something similar before, so I gave it a rough answer.
“It just happened for a moment.”
At that moment I noticed that she was alone.
“Where have all the colleagues you boasted about gone?”
“The magician decided to go up later to heal Daehyeop, so the nine-cheonoknyeo, who came in with him, hasn’t cleared the 36th floor yet.”
Were you and Gucheonoknyeo clearing the floor together?
As befits both rankers who were on the front line, they are clearing floors at a very fast rate.
However, since the 36th floor is a floor that goes into personal memories, they both ended up attacking the floor separately.
“36th floor, how were you?”
She, too, must have seen the past in her memories.
Suddenly, the question occurred to me as to whether the Sword King knew the emperor’s previous appearance.
“I met the emperor. “By my standards, at the 2nd time.”
“The emperor? “Have you ever met that person back then?”
The Sword King, who knew what the 36th floor was like from experience, asked back with a surprised expression.
She smiled bitterly as if she was remembering the emperor who had shown off his majesty and led the participants in the past.
He must have been a special person to her since he was the Sword King who even served in the emperor’s personal guard.
“No, I was because of Isabella. “The emperor is an accident.”
I answered right away because I had no reason to hide it.
“Definitely Isabella.”
“You might be more familiar with her as a saint.”

Isabella was named a saint.
Now that I think about it, it really wasn’t a fitting name.
“that’s right. With your saint… … .”
There was sadness in her eyes, as if she knew what kind of relationship I had with Isabella.
“Don’t look at me like that. Because nothing special happened.”
“There must be a reason why the floor was selected in your memory. At times like this, you don’t have to pretend to be strong. “Because I climbed the same floor.”
“Just because we climbed the same floor doesn’t mean we saw the same memories, right?”
“I guess so.”
I sighed when I saw the hesitating Sword King.
As always, the Sword King was too kind to climb the Crown Road.
‘I don’t know what past this guy saw.’
Seeing as how she got out of her past and cleared the floor faster than me, I thought she might have a foolish past like hers.
“done. “I’ll go, so take care of it.”
“Then I’ll go with you.”
At that moment, the Sword King said something absurd.
“What nonsense? “You have to wait for the nine heavenly jade girl.”
You said earlier that you were waiting for the Nine Heavenly Oknyeo, and you would follow me?
As he looked back at her, asking what she was thinking, the Sword King smiled bitterly.
“There’s something we discussed among ourselves. “If you wait more than three days and cannot clear a floor, the person waiting will climb the floor first.”
“Three days.”
“Yes, it’s already been more than 4 days.”
As he said that, the Sword King looked behind him at the place where the stairs leading to the lower floor appeared.
We don’t know what kind of past Nine Heavenly Oknyeo is looking at, but at present, we don’t know when it will come out.
In that case, if you at least go ahead and find out about the next floor in advance, even if you fail, you can use your time usefully, so you may have made this plan.
In the Crown Road, time is a precious resource limited to 5 years.
“By the way, please join me too. “Kings.”
Then, a voice I didn’t want to hear rang out from behind me.
When I turned my gaze with a frown, there was a familiar face standing there.
“hell? “Did you know Ha Cheon-seong too?”
“If the Sword King finds out how close our relationship is, he will be shocked and jealous.”
At the Sword King’s surprised face, Narak playfully wrapped his arms around me.
I was horrified and appalled by his actions, so I kicked him and immediately pulled out the Star Heaven Blade.
“Even though Yashin had run away without telling me his secret, he reappeared without any fear. “Is this it?”
“Wow, it’s already been a long time, why are you doing this?”
What happened a long time ago is a mess.
“Wait a minute, calm down. I don’t know what happened with Ha Cheonseong and Hell, but Hell is protected by the constellations. If you kill him carelessly, there will be constellations flocking to harm you.”
“Then just kill them all.”
【’Stone Monkey’ applauds, saying he spoke well this time.】
【’Atelier of Arrogance’ decides that he will be with you too.】
【As if ‘Imaemangryang’s heartache’ sympathizes with him, he urges us to fight quickly.】
【The ‘Frosty Cat’ is squeezing the jelly-like soles of its paws as if it were fun.】
As the top constellations on my side showed their readiness to respond, the light of Star Heaven began to grow stronger.
Naturally, the constellations on the abyss side also joined in and constellations began to circle around the guy’s body, and the Sword King was caught in the middle and didn’t know what to do.
It was that moment.
The sky turned pitch black and a sword large enough to split the planet in half appeared.
【The ‘God of Weapons’ is about to drop his sword here.】
A constellation that made even me tremble was shaking wildly around me.
The low-level constellations, surprised by the appearance of the giant sword, hurriedly ran away, and only the highest-level constellations began to shine their stars as if responding to the sword.
“Stop, stop! “You too, tell the constellations to behave appropriately!”
When the Sword King shouted, I sighed and turned the Star Heavenly Blade around my waist.
Accordingly, Hell also asked the constellations to stop, and the Sword King glared at the sky in silence.
Then, the giant sword slowly disappeared into the night sky, and the sky returned to its original state.
“Sword King, did the God of Weapons become your background?”
In response to my question, she smoothed her hair and nodded slowly.
God of Weapons, one of the highest constellations whose name I know like the Stone Monkey.
And this guy has the strongest power among them, and I heard that a long time ago, a guy named King Mu once had an intimate relationship with the God of Weapons.
Unfortunately, that guy named King Mu died on the front line during my first fight, so I only know about him through rumors.
I never thought that the God of Weapons, who had never appeared during my five trips up the Crown Road, would once again choose to become his master since he made a contract with King Martial.
‘The Sword King is certainly good at handling a sword.’
Her name is not for nothing.
As far as I know, the Sword King was the best with a sword than anyone I’ve ever seen.
From what I first heard through rumors, it was said that this guy was originally a national kendo representative on Earth, so that was all said and done.
“It’s my first time forming an alliance with a constellation before the 50th floor, so I’m a bit confused, but it happened.”
As mentioned before, mastery means being selected by a constellation with a true name, and it usually takes place from the 50th floor.
However, in the case of the Sword King, even though he was not on the 50th floor, he already had a background, so there must have been quite a commotion on the part of the constellations.
‘But he is the god of weapons.’
Since it is a constellation with enough power to ignore the rules and proceed with the work, the Sword King may have accepted it as a hint, even though he was embarrassed.
Anyway, all constellations are the same.
When the situation finally calmed down, the Sword King breathed a sigh of relief, looked at me and Narak in turn, and asked me a question.
“Anyway, if it’s related to Yashin, I can’t just ignore it. What’s the story?”
The emperor died at the hands of Yasin.
Even for the Sword King who was on the front lines with him, Yashin would be an object of hatred.
When the Sword King was staring at him like that, he slyly shrugged his shoulders, probably because he thought there was no way to escape.
“It’s simple. “I decided to tell the King of Heaven about Yasin’s secret, but he ran away.”
“That was bad of you.”
I made a dumbfounded expression when I saw the Sword King taking my side and secretly trying to listen to Yashin’s story.
The current ranker, and the woman who was on the front line every day in the previous episode, is unable to hide her true feelings.
‘Are you naive? Or do you think that’s your strength?’
In fact, I found it more difficult for the Sword King to deal with me than Narak, who was acting slyly while hiding his true feelings.
Maybe it’s because I haven’t met many people who look the same on the outside and the inside.
