I’m Alone on the 100th Floor Episode 048
15. Desert of the Tower ⑴
[Title: Please tell me how to carry the trials.]
[Author: Seon Yu-jin]
[Since they’re being so pushy, I think I’ll have to move with the trials, but is there another way?]
[Comments (13)]
[Classes that can carry trials include archers and magicians.]
[If an archer trains in the wild series, he can train and participate in trials centered around beasts or insects.]
[Wizards can go through trials by choosing the spirit lineage to deal with spirits, or by choosing the warlock lineage to make a contract with a demon.]
[*Uh… Are you saying that I need a class? If I’m not an archer or a wizard, then I can’t do it?]
[It would be difficult if it weren’t for the two classes I mentioned above. Author, what classes do you have?]
[* I’m a beginner.]
[yes?]
[*I haven’t changed my job yet.]
[By any chance… what kind of ordeal is the ordeal of trying to move together?]
[*The evil spirits of the beginning and the world’s demand.]
[*This is a trial I encountered on the 98th floor, but I don’t know how to take these guys away.
yo. this.]
[*Um, no comments are being posted.]
[*Did you turn off the bulletin board?]
[Current floor: 18th floor]
Eugene, who left the 17th floor and went up to the 18th floor, looked back at the deer and Ra Sil who were following him.
“Are you okay?”
〈Hehehe… … .>
Rasil, who had reverted back to the form of a small person from the leaves, was panting with his tongue slightly sticking out.
Although it looked cute like a puppy, I couldn’t just watch it happily.
〈I’m dying… I’m dying… .>
As Rasil, who was sweating profusely, stretched out both arms, Eugene took out a bucket of water from his inventory and poured it over the deer’s head.
〈Heuheu uh… … .〉 He gave half of the water to Lasil, who was sitting between the deer’s antlers, and half to the deer, who was suffering from the heat.
“Is it worth living?”
〈Byeeeee… … .>
A soaking wet Rasil lay sprawled on the deer’s forehead.
“No, I’m going to die.”
“Hey, it hasn’t even been 3 seconds since I asked.”
Eugene, who had told her to just endure it for a bit, frowned as he looked at the sandy plain before his eyes.
It was empty.
The 18th floor of the tower was a desert, and it seemed like the ordeal was overcoming the heat and the creatures that existed there.
“Is the 18th floor trial a scorpion or a snake? The ones that look like trials are starting to pop out.”
Eugene picked up the scorpion buried under the sand near his feet and muttered as he looked up at the creature flapping in the air.
“The guide said that there were status effects starting from the 16th floor, so these guys here will probably have some kind of poison or something.”
The scorpion that Eugene was holding in his hand had transparent droplets of poison oozing out of its tail.
“I haven’t seen a snake yet, but it would be similar to this.”
Eugene moved the scorpion he was holding with his fingers to the palm of his hand and crushed the hard shell with just his grip strength.
“If you just increase your poison resistance a bit, it won’t be that difficult of a fight… …
Eugene, who had thrown away the crushed scorpion, looked back as he continued speaking. “Hmm, shouldn’t I just be concerned about the poison?”
The sun was beating down on us.
The 18th floor seemed like it would be a place where you would have to endure not only the toxicity of the trials, but also the heat of the desert.
It seemed that the 17th floor was a resting floor where it rained all day long, and not only because of the 16th floor.
〈Wow… … ?>
Rashil was sobbing.
“Just come this way.”
I motioned for the World Tree, which was struggling in the desert heat, to come over, but the three of them shook their heads while lying down.
〈I hate it… … .>
Rasil, who refused to turn back, answered while holding on to the deer’s fur tightly.
〈If I go, the deer will be at the mercy of the devil… … .>
“Who is the devil?”
Eugene, who had been twitching the corners of his lips at Rasil’s words, stopped walking after catching sight of a silhouette not far away.
“hmm?”
The heat rising from the sand made the azalea sway, making it difficult to see the silhouette clearly.
“Is it a person?”
Since I had a characteristic related to heat and had never seen a mirage, I couldn’t have seen anything wrong.
“They are engaged in combat.”
The climbers on the top were fighting against several scorpions, each holding a weapon in their hand.
“I should ask for directions.”
It was a situation where Rasil could not be active and so she could not be used as a guide, so help from others was desperately needed.
“Racil.”
〈What the… … ?>
Rasil, who had been lying down, turned into a leaf at Eugene’s call and hid his identity.

“??? Turn back!”
“Be careful with the tongs! Avoid them!”
“Calm down! When I give the signal, you can start cleaning up the broken tongs one by one!”
There were three people fighting and exchanging opinions busily, each holding a different weapon.
“Drod! Turn around!”
“But, Gabga… …
“I told you, you don’t have to worry about me!”
“Mirami! Please!”
Just from listening to their voices, the situation for the three people dealing with the scorpion looked pretty bad.
‘uh?’
Eugene, who was approaching the three people with a gait that was neither fast nor slow, opened his eyes wide at a name that sounded familiar.
‘Ms. Mirami?’ It was because I heard the name of the employee I met at the restaurant on the 10th floor.
“Ugh?!”
“Heel! Give me heel!”
Eugene arrived at the scene, picking up speed as he heard the urgent voice calling for healing.
The number of scorpions threatening the three people was four. Originally there were eight, but four of them were rolling on the ground.
“Can I help you?”
The three people who were concentrating on the four remaining scorpions glanced sideways at Eugene’s voice.
“uh?”
“you are……
Mirami, the woman who met Eugene’s eyes, opened her mouth in a daze.
“What? Do you know him?”
“I don’t know you or anything, but now is not the time to worry about that! Move quickly!”
When the woman who was standing in front and fending off the scorpions’ attacks screamed, Eugene skipped over to ask permission and went forward.
It popped out.
Crispy!
Crispy!
The sound of my feet stepping on the sand was a bit loud, and in the blink of an eye, the four remaining scorpions were crushed.
“uh?”
The sight of all the scorpions they had been fighting with flattened was enough to shock them.
“I just stepped on it.”
Eugene, who was explaining to the three people how to flatten the scorpion, looked back at the two people approaching him.
[Drode]
[Level: 20]
[Miramie]
[Level: 20]
Even if you say them backwards, the three letters are the same. They were not climbers, they were tower people.
“Are you quitting the restaurant?”
Eugene glanced at the back of her hand and asked.
“yes.”
She used to work as a slave in a restaurant due to a curse used by a warlock from the Drug Guild, but fortunately, the tattoo is now invisible.
“I don’t know what happened, but it looks good.”
When Eugene shrugged his shoulders and spoke, Mirami smiled and replied.
“It’s much better than it was then.”
Two of Mirami’s companions, who had been listening to the conversation between the two, asked cautiously.
“Mr. Mirami? Who is this person?”
“He’s not a bad person… is he?”
Eugene looked back at Mirami’s group at the voice he heard for the first time and remembered the tower people he had met on the 7th floor.
‘Are these people I haven’t seen on the 7th floor?’
While Eugene was racking his brain, Mirami introduced him with an expression that suggested she had forgotten about him.
“This is Seon Yu-jin. She’s the one who gave you medical expenses when you got burned at a restaurant a few months ago.”
Thanks to Mirami’s addition, it seemed like their first meeting started off on a positive note.
“Ah! That time?”
“Thank you. Thanks to you, Mirami’s burns were healed quickly.”
When two of Mirami’s group bowed their heads in thanks, Eugene replied that there was no need for that.
“Hey, it was a fair deal.”
Eugene then glanced at the back of Mirami’s group’s hands and asked cautiously.
“You seem to be in the same group as me since you were hunting for trials… Did you work together at a restaurant?”
Knowing what happened at the restaurant a few months ago, it was highly likely.
“yes.”
“Huh! It’s been a while since I’ve gotten rid of that shitty place.”
” haha??????
Eugene, who was smiling awkwardly, glanced at the name of the person who was particularly sullen.
It was human.
[Gabga]
[Level: 22]
This person also seemed to be a tower person who could normally only be seen on the 50th floor or higher.
“Oh, right… I’m late with the introduction.”
Mirami hurriedly spoke and introduced her group to Eugene.
“Let me introduce you. This is Drod, a close range dealer among our members.”
As the tower guard named Drod bowed his head, Eugene accepted her greeting and muttered to himself.
‘The top player uses the term ‘close range dealer…’
Close range dealer.
It was a word referring to a position in a game where you approach the enemy and attack them.
What was surprising was that these words were being used by top people, not climbers.
“This is Gabga, he’s the tanker for our team.”
tanker.
This is also a term used in the game, and refers to a position that takes the lead in enduring trials to keep the party safe.
“I’m out of the restaurant now and focusing on leveling up.”
Mirami smiled proudly and proudly showed the back of her hand and explained why this was possible.
“Because our tattoos are gone.”
Eugene looked closely at the back of her hand where the tattoo had disappeared and asked with a satisfied expression.
“That’s great! Could you tell me how you got rid of it?”
“I didn’t get rid of it… …
If they were going to hide it, they could have asked for information in return for helping the three people out of danger, but it seemed like there was no need to worry about that.
“Actually, it hasn’t been that long since my tattoo disappeared.”
“is it so?”
“Yes. Was it about two weeks ago? I was working at the restaurant that day, and a warlock with his face covered came into the store alone.”
“Warlock?”
Eugene’s eyebrows furrowed in curiosity at the word “warlock.”
“Could you tell me, by any chance, what that warlock looks like?”
“Oh, oh… Hood! Yeah, you were wearing a hood!”
As Mirami began to speak, recalling the impression of a black magician, Gabga added.
“Puppy ears.”
“huh?”
“He was wearing a white hoodie with puppy ears pulled down over his head. It cast a shadow over his face, so I couldn’t see him very well.”
Perhaps judging that the two people’s explanation was insufficient, Drod, who seemed the most timid of the group, began to whisper.
“The voice…was a woman’s.”
“Oh, that’s right! It’s a woman! The atmosphere was so mysterious that I couldn’t tell her gender, but her hands were really pretty.”
Eugene, who guessed the identity of the black magician from the second hint, ‘dog ears’, rolled his head with his chin against the food.
‘Is this it?’ If it was a white hoodie with puppy ears, it was the item Eugene had given her as a gift.
‘I thought you were just playing around because you said you waited for me for three weeks, but you were actually taking care of the people at the top.’
Eugene nodded, hiding his delight as he canceled his reservation for a room with her.
“I was wearing rings, too. Two.”
“???yes?”
Eugene, who was reminded of Serin, turned around to see Drod muttering in a whisper.
“What did you say?”
“Bar, ring… …
Overwhelmed by Eugene’s gaze, Drode’s shoulders shrank like a small animal.
