I’m Alone on the 100th Floor Episode 005

[Title: Oh, really?]
[Author: Seon Yu-jin]
[This is driving me crazy… No, I’m not joking, I’m telling you it’s true.
When I came down one floor from above, it was really the 99th floor! The Demon King is here! The level
[It’s XXX!]

[Ah, this isn’t fun anymore.]
[Just do verse 1. Please.]
[Oh, is this a Korean joke?]
[No fun… ….1
In the Tower of Trials, there was a sphere floating in the air and rotating on each floor, and that sphere was the basic shop that could be used within the tower.
Barley bread, water, low-level potions, torches, cloth clothes… The sphere was a shop that sold only the basic items needed to survive in the tower, and you could buy things with ‘gold’, the basic currency that could be obtained in the tower.
“???so?”
While visiting the basic store on the 17th floor, Eugene heard Serin’s story and asked to confirm.
“It’s not enough that you’re a murderer, you’re also a delinquent who killed your parents?”
“yes.”
“Is this true?”
tt O uh……”
? Tthat ?
Eugene muttered to himself, resting his chin on his hand for a moment, perhaps feeling sorry for her story.
“Is the Warlock class that bad?”
“yes?”
“I guess it’s understandable that you’re ostracized by other climbers because of your differences in opinion, but the fact that you were once the best black magician on the tower and then had that false accusation turned around and didn’t put up a fight at all is a bit… … “No, I didn’t mean it in a bad way! I was just curious… I don’t have a class yet.”
“There are no classes?”
“I came down backwards.”
Eugene, who revealed that he has no class, explained the reason.
“I never had a chance to choose a class. Up until now, I’ve just been roughly guessing at traits and titles… …
What this meant was that he survived at the top without any class, only with titles and traits.
It was surprising that he started from the top without any classes, but it was even more embarrassing that he only asked about classes without much interest after hearing his story.
“Why? You still don’t believe it?”
“Huh? Oh, no!”
“I’m not going to force you to believe what I say, but I do. I believe the story about the guild’s false accusations, and the story about your parents.”
Eugene, who had been speaking nonchalantly, opened his eyes wide when he saw the sphere in the distance.
“Huh? Is that it?”
“yes that’s right.”
“Eww! Finally!”
As Eugene clenched his fists and hurried towards the store, Seorin, who was watching his back, asked cautiously.
“Hey, wasn’t there a basic store on the 100th floor?” Her question indicated that she was beginning to believe his words that he had come down from above.
“uh.”
Eugene walked up to the sphere and continued talking while looking at the basic store that was floating in the air and slowly rotating.
“50th floor… No, it was the 51st floor? From then on, you won’t be able to use the basic shops.”
“From the 51st floor?”
“The rankers here haven’t even reached the 50th floor yet, right?”
“You knew that?”
“Well, I could see the bulletin board sometimes.”
As Eugene shrugged and reached out towards the basic store, Seorin, remembering that he was coming down the tower upside down, asked cautiously.
“By the way, do you have gold to buy things?”
If I came down from a place where there was no shop, I somehow felt like I would not have enough currency to use at the tower.
“well?”
Eugene tilted his head at Serin’s question and checked the current gold written in his inventory window.
[Current Gold: 62,114,211,851 Gold]
Eugene shrugged and answered.
“It’s not lacking.”
Eugene began to giggle as he filled his inventory with a few recovery potions and plenty of food items from the basic shop.
“Heh, heh heh heh! This and this too… this and… oh my gosh… is this heaven? Oh my, now I’m not going to starve to death.”
“You must be very hungry. That’s, that’s why… above.”
“I was hungry. Honestly, the hardest part was figuring out what to eat and drink.”
Eugene, who had tears in his eyes as if he didn’t want to think about it again, asked Seorin, who was still using formal language.
“By the way, can we not speak more freely now?” Eugene’s age is nineteen. Serin’s age is seventeen.
There was a two year age difference.
“It feels a bit awkward to be the only one using formal language.”
Eugene, who was two years older than Serin, readily suggested that they talk more comfortably, but she still used formal language with him.
“It’s comfortable to be respectful to older people.”
“You didn’t care about that uncle earlier, did you? Surely he wasn’t younger than you with his looks?”
“Before I could be an associate, I was a piece of trash who had to become a human being. There’s no need to be respectful to trash.”
“Well, if you think about what I said earlier, I guess he’s not the type of person who needs to be respected, but… …

Eugene glanced at Serin, who still couldn’t meet his eyes, and recalled when he first met her.
“Was it just level 10?”
“yes?”
“No, when we first met.”
Eugene, who had been frowning to remember what she had said, soon remembered the lines and even began to recreate her facial expressions.
“It’s not something that can be solved with just level 10.”
≪……2”
“I think I clearly said that earlier?”
a J 99
“Haa, I never would have summoned such a sloppy thing in my plans… as I said.”
“That, that, that!”
Serin, who remembered what she had said, began to stutter with a face full of fear.
“I was wondering if I should use polite language when I say that abusive language earlier.”
“That was just… like a monologue… and, and I think I used the proper ‘yo’ at that time too?”
Eugene, who had been looking at the pale face and giggling, declared surrender first.
“Okay, fine. Do whatever you want.”
“phew……
Only then did Serin, who had been looking down, carefully raise her head and look at Eugene.
“So, let’s get back to the main topic and talk about class.”
“Class?”
“As I said earlier, since I came down from above, I don’t have a class yet… I think I should change jobs first.”
If you’ve survived until now despite starting from the top floor, it’s safe to say that you don’t actually need a class.
Eugene was convinced that in order to survive the cataclysm that would come after the tower was destroyed, it would be better to have any class than none.
“I don’t know for sure because I only checked the bulletin board, but by any chance, which floor can I change jobs on?”
“It’s the 5th floor.”
“Fifth floor?”
Eugene’s expression crumpled.
“Is this the 17th floor?”
Serin didn’t answer, but gave her a look that said, ‘Why are you asking if you already know?’
“Ha, should I go down?”
“If you want to change jobs, I don’t think there’s any other way than going down. There were beginners who went up to the 5th floor without changing jobs, saying they wanted to find the hidden class in the tower… …
Serin, who had been stealing glances at Eugene’s level, which was exactly ‘level 10’, did not continue speaking until the end.
That was enough to tell what kind of end those beginners had met.
“Well, once you reach level 10, you can’t level up any further unless you change jobs.”
Eugene knew best that those beginners would stop growing at level 10.
“Haa, how do I get down again?” As Eugene sighed heavily, Seorin glanced at him and asked, as if asking why he was worrying about something like that.
“Just go down.”
” just?”
“Yes. You can freely come and go from floors where the trials have already been cleared, right?”
“Huh?”
≪……2”
Seo Rin tilted her head at Eugene’s reaction and continued her explanation.
“The 46th floor is where climbers have recently climbed, so from the 1st floor to the 47th floor,
You can go back and forth without necessarily clearing the trials yourself. Some people even repeatedly challenge trials they have already cleared in order to level up.”
“what?”
“Why, why are you doing that?”
“Really?”
“It’s true… …
You can go up and down the tower at will? It was something I couldn’t even imagine when I came down from the top floor.
“No, then isn’t that a bit… fraudulent?”
“What is it?”
“Didn’t that work upstairs?” “Of course not! Isn’t it supposed to be a one-way street? I had no choice but to go down!”
Seo Rin, who almost burst into laughter without realizing it as she looked at Eugene with a look of injustice on her face, carefully spoke up.
“But if you started from the 100th floor and came down, wouldn’t it end when you reached the 1st floor? What happens?”
Eugene shrugged his shoulders at Serin’s question and answered as if he didn’t know much about it.
“Well? When I started on the 100th floor, I saw a congratulatory message that said, ‘You’ve cleared the tower for the first time.’ So after the 1st floor, I guess I’ll go back to the practice floor? Hey, I might end up meeting the Answerer twice.”
“You cleared the tower?”
“Yeah. When I was clearing the second tutorial on the practice floor, for some reason I was faced with a set of stairs going down instead of up.”
Eugene was standing in this spot because he had cleared the tower but was not summoned back outside the tower.
“Now that I’ve come down here, I should find out about that too. What happens when you get to the first floor… Why was I the only one who saw the stairs going down… …
Eugene’s eyes were dark as he muttered softly.
‘Was it an answerer? You said it was a being that answered for those who entered the tower?’
‘Yes.’
‘Are you going to answer anything?’
‘You cannot ask questions about information you are not authorized to access.’
‘For example?’
‘I cannot answer questions about information about floors where Seon Yu-jin herself has not yet arrived.’
‘Um, is there a limit to the number of questions?’
‘There is no limit to the number of questions you can ask, and you will be given the opportunity to talk to me only on this practice floor.’
‘So you’re saying that if I leave here, I won’t be able to ask any more questions?’
‘Yes.’
Eugene, who was recalling the time when he first entered the tower, relaxed his expression when he became aware of Serin’s gaze.
“What are you going to do?”
“Me?”
“If what I heard earlier is true, then you’re broke now, aren’t you?”
“That may be true, but… …
“Then let me ask you one more favor.”
“ask?”
“No, should we call it a deal?”
Eugene, who had changed his words in the middle, moved his finger and summoned a spear.
“Let’s see, this is my first time doing something like this, so I don’t know what to do? Oh, is this how it’s done?”
As Eugene waved his finger as if he had caught the feeling, a window appeared before Serin’s eyes.
[Seon Yu-jin requested to be added as a friend.]
[Accept/Reject] One of the blessings of the tower was the ‘Add Friend’ window, which allowed you to use the community to check the location of others or whisper to each other.
“Is this the right way to do it?”
At Eugene’s words that he was the first to add a friend, Serin hesitated for a moment.
“yes that’s right.”
I accepted the friend request by touching the part that said accept with my finger.
“The deal I’m proposing isn’t that difficult. Just be a guide to help me, who doesn’t know much about the downside.”
“guide?”
“I guess I just don’t feel like wandering around here alone.”
Eugene continued speaking with a satisfied expression after confirming that Han Seo-rin’s name was filled in the previously empty community window.
“You know the genie in the lamp? No, it’s a little different from that? As a warlock, you probably summon a few demons often, right? I think it’s similar to that.”
“It seems a bit different from the devil…?”
“No, let’s not nitpick about that now. It’s just that the feeling is similar. The feeling.”
“So, that’s it?”
“If you will be my guide downstairs, I will grant you the revenge you desire… no, I will grant you one wish.”
Serin, who heard his suggestion, asked blankly.
“wish?”
“Yes. Wish.”
“Anything?”
“Well, to the extent that I can accept it.” Although it was actually a suggestion that didn’t require much thought, Serin couldn’t readily answer.
‘I tried to die… …
By the time I tried to tear the explosive scroll, I had already given up on living.
‘A wish, I don’t really have any… …
Serin, who had no wish in mind, looked at Eugene as if she had made up her mind.
‘Well, I guess it’ll be okay once before I die. With his power, I might be able to get revenge on the guild without getting my hands dirty…
She didn’t believe in the saying that if you do good deeds and die you’ll go to heaven, but she answered with the thought that she’d like to do something good.
“???great.”
Eugene smiled at her answer and extended his right hand forward to shake her hand.
“It’s Seon Yu-jin.”
It was a handshake to mean asking for a favor.
“This is Han Seo-rin.”
Serin, with a small smile on her lips, extended her right hand forward to shake hands.
???Dismissal I
Eugene flinched in surprise at the sparks flying around his hand.
“Ah, sorry… It’s not my original trait, but I can’t control it well.”
It seemed that one of his characteristics was that he noticed the opponent’s approach and tried to protect his body.
“What kind of characteristic prevents you from shaking hands?”
“It’s called the Absolute Domain… If I explain it now, it will take too long, so I’ll tell you later.”
Eugene, who had suppressed his own traits, reached out his hand once again and grabbed her palm, which was terrified by the flames just now.
“Thank you, guide.”
“Me, me.”
