I’m Alone on the 100th Floor Episode 004
1. Rumors of the Tower (3)

[Level: 1
The tracker snickered when he saw that the boy was only level 10.
“Hey, at first glance, you seem like a beginner who just got on the top, but you didn’t know what to do and ended up dying… You’d better get out quickly while I’m checking on you.”
As the pursuer waved his right hand as if chasing a fly, Eugene asked with an expression of incomprehension.
“Oh, you were watching me?”
“what?”
“Hmm, are you the uncle who does the one on the top?”
“Ha! Uncle?”
I couldn’t believe that a level 10 beginner was spouting off words as they pleased, whether it was out of fear or ignorance.
“Ha, hahaha!”
The pursuer, who had burst into laughter so that his Adam’s apple was visible, suddenly reached out his hand towards the boy’s nape.
‘You crazy bastard, when I tell you to go away, you’ll go away.’
The level of the pursuer who came to catch Han Seo-rin today was a whopping level 64, as was also posted on the bulletin board rankings.
The class I chose was also a warrior class, so it didn’t take much effort to beat the neck of a level 10 climber.
≪……2”
Obviously that was normal.
‘Huh? Just now?’
Han Seo-rin’s mouth fell open in shock as she could see the pursuer’s grip reaching for the boy’s nape.
“Looking at you, you don’t seem like you’re strong enough to show off, but you seem to have some solid connections. Are you in a guild?”
The scene she saw was truly shocking.
“Right?”
It was a scene where a climber of only level 10 was smiling while grabbing the wrist of a warrior climber who was ranked at the top of the tower.
“I only know that rankers have banded together to form a few guilds, but I don’t know which guilds are doing well.”
The pursuer, whose wrist had been grabbed by the strange boy, rolled his eyes and checked the boy’s level.
[Seon Yu-jin]
[Level: 10] The boy’s level was exactly 10, which was more than six times higher than his own level of 64.
‘What the heck? This kid?’
That’s what happened… … .
“You’re a member of a guild, right?”
He nonchalantly grabbed my wrist, which I had stretched out with the intention of killing me, and continued talking with an expression on his face as if he had come out of a mountain book.
“I see a few pictures attached to the armor, so that’s right. Wow… There really is such a thing as a guild. This is my first time seeing it. Gil IZ”
The pursuer’s cheek muscles twitched with anger at the sight of the boy curiously looking at the rose pattern painted on his armor.
“This kid… I clearly warned you.”
As the stalker with veins on his face gritted his teeth in preparation to kill the boy in front of him, the boy, sensing his murderous intent, hurriedly spoke.
“No, I didn’t mean to start a fight.”
The boy glanced at Han Seo-rin standing next to him, wondering if she wanted to mediate.
I thought I heard a thud. Is this what it feels like when your heart suddenly sinks?
Han Seo-rin, who met his eyes, shivered as if she felt a fear she had never felt before.
This was an unprecedented horror.
I felt a fear I had never felt before, not when I was first summoned to the tower, not when I nearly died in the tower’s trials, not when I tore the explosive scroll to commit suicide.
‘earthly?’
The boy who had made eye contact with Han Seo-rin clicked his tongue with a puzzled expression.
“I saw this friend from afar and his expression didn’t look so good… I came here to help him… Umm… …
“Oh, okay. No need to bring it up.”
“yes?”
“Anyway, after witnessing the murder scene a little while ago, I had no intention of letting him live.”
The pursuer, who looked at the boy and laughed, reached for his sword hanging on his waist.
“Just a minute. If I pull that out… …
The boy, who had been watching the other person’s hand reach for the weapon, continued speaking quietly.
“If you pull that out, your uncle will die.”
“what?”
The pursuer, who had burst into laughter in disbelief, twitched the tendon protruding from his forehead.
“What the hell is this kid talking about… …
Han Seo-rin, who was standing next to the boy, held her breath without realizing it, but the stupid pursuer in her field of vision didn’t seem to notice it yet.
No, maybe.
I had a feeling that maybe the pursuer was deliberately staging this situation so that no one would notice.
‘This guy… isn’t just a level 10. He’s not your average climber.’
At that moment, the story of the ‘Legend of the Tower’ that the owner of the 17th floor cafe had asked about a few hours ago flashed through Han Seo-rin’s mind.
‘This is one of the hot topics that was posted on the cafe. There’s a legend that there’s a person who starts the tower upside down… Is that really true?
‘Are you the guy coming down the tower upside down?’
‘That’s literally just an urban legend floating around in the tower. I’m even more certain of it because I was once a ranker, but it’s absolutely impossible. A level 1 who’s not even a top ranker would turn the tower upside down? Haha, it’s out of the question.’
‘I see, right?’
That legend… … .
What was the name of the writer whose post was trending on April Fool’s Day?

[Author: Seon Yu-jin]
Why didn’t I know that commonality?
Seon Yu-jin!
The author of that article and the boy standing here had the same name.
‘It wasn’t a lie?’
The pursuer, who had vowed to kill the arrogant boy in front of him, snorted and moved his hand, seemingly oblivious to the shock that was spreading across Han Seo-rin’s body.
“Your name was Han Seo-rin, right? Take one step back… no, two steps back.”
Han Seo-rin, who couldn’t answer because her lips weren’t moving, moved her trembling legs and took a step back.
“Haha, you crazy kid! I’ve seen a lot of beastly kids show off in front of girls, but a punk like you… …
The moment the pursuer, who had been swearing as if he was disgusted, grabbed the handle of the sword hanging on his waist and tried to pull it out.
‘ uh?’
Thud! My legs gave out and I fell to my knees.
‘What, what is it?’
To satisfy his curiosity, three windows appeared.
[Status abnormality ‘Overwhelm’ is applied.]
[It will stop for 5 minutes from now.]
[Status abnormality ‘Disarm’ is applied.]
[You will not be able to cause damage to your opponent for the next 5 minutes.] [You have encountered the ‘Terminator’ of the tower.] The two spears that appeared in front of the pursuer’s eyes had descriptions of being hit by a status effect he had never seen before, and the remaining one had three unfamiliar, yet ominous-looking words written on it.
‘Hey, what is this?’
The bewildered pursuer tried to say something, but he was ‘frozen’ as if time had stopped and he could only look straight ahead and do nothing.
“I was just going to pass by since you said I didn’t need a favor, but I saw you were trying to commit suicide… so I wanted to help you for no reason.” Seon Yu-jin, who had briefly released her power, muttered as she looked back at Han Seo-rin, who was standing behind her.
“Of course, I don’t know if I should call it a thank you when I force something on you, but when I see someone trying to take their own life, I feel a little sad for no reason… …
The boy shrugged and turned back to his pursuer, who had frozen once more.
“You won’t be able to move for the next five minutes. You seem to have a grudge, so if you’re going to get revenge, do it.” As if leaving the choice up to her, the boy took a few steps back and began to watch Han Seo-rin and the pursuer from a distance.
“plural?”
Han Se-rin, who was muttering to herself at Eugene’s words, looked at the pursuer who was still overwhelmed and unable to move.
“Ah, uh, ah… …
There was a fear in his eyes that he might die.
It was the Mol Gol he had been longing to see so much.
Still, it wasn’t particularly refreshing.
‘But he’s one of the enemies who killed my parents.’
It’s right to like something because you can get revenge… Should I try so hard to think that way? Serin, who was trying to get revenge with the most powerful magic she could use at the moment, soon withdrew her hand.
“Ugh.”
There was a glimmer of hope in the pursuer’s eyes as he saw Serin’s hand go down.
“excuse me??????
Han Seo-rin, who was looking at the pursuer, turned to Eugene, who was watching from a few feet away, and asked politely.
“If you’re going to give me an example, I’d like it to be something other than this.”
Serin’s gaze naturally turned downward as she wondered if she could dare to bring up the subject.
“Anything else?”
“More… … Han Seo-rin bit her lower lip and turned her gaze from the tip of her feet upward to stare at Eugene.
“I wish this person had died a little more painfully.”
Even if she didn’t kill him, the other side would kill this pursuer… Serin was sure of it.
then…….
“Huh?!”
The pursuer, who was still unable to move, made a strange noise.
“Would you mind if I gave you a chance to get revenge?” “It’s no different from me doing it?” It wasn’t exactly wrong.
“Well, if you say so yourself.”
“Ugh? Ugh! Ugh, ugh!”
In fact, it was Han Seo-rin who called Eugene up to the 17th floor.
I never expected that the sound of a person’s neck being broken would be this gruesome.
Han Seo-rin, who had been silently watching the end of one of her enemies, realized that what the boy had said was true.

[Level: 1
A level 10 guy breaks the neck of a level 60 warrior climber with his bare hands?
This was because it was impossible to pour all the abilities gained from leveling up into ‘strength’.
“…ruler!”
Eugene, who threw away the body he was holding in his hands as if nothing had happened after killing a person, spoke to Han Seo-rin.
“I hate to be a showoff, but I just saved your life and did you a favor, right?”
“yes.”
Was swallowing saliva this difficult? Han Seo-rin silently pulled in her chin and waited for Eugene to speak next.
“Where is the store here?”
“??yes?”
A question mark appeared on Serin’s face.
“A store. A basic store that sells things like bread and water.”
