“A saint?”
Eugene frowned as he made eye contact with the old nun with an awkward smile.
“Oh, I think that’s right.”
” no??????
As Serin muttered, Eugene, who had been stuttering without realizing it, blinked his eyes.
“If she’s a saint, she’s not like someone who’s so beautiful that it makes your eyes pop out or something like that.
Hey? Grandma… is a saint?”
Seorin, who had been glancing at Eugene out of the corner of her eye, made a weak tackle.
“It’s not a novel.”
Eugene, who had been momentarily dumbfounded by her tackle, looked at the old nun… no, the saintess and asked.
“Really… a saint?”
An old nun named Sophia shook her head.
“It’s not that grand.”
Come to think of it, it wouldn’t make sense if she were just an ordinary priest.
This old nun was purified of evil.
An ordinary priest passing through the 45th floor was able to purify the Eternal’s evil without any trouble?
No, it was more credible that the saint had used her power.
“I guess that’s right.”
From the humility in her voice, Eugene was certain that she was a saint, not an ordinary priestess.
“If it weren’t for that, there’s no way I could have purified my poison just now.”
I didn’t know it until I met him, but… I got the feeling that he was on a different level from blacksmiths, sculptors, and gamblers.
It was because of the atmosphere.
Even though I kept thinking that I should be wary of her, I couldn’t easily think of doing so… The class of saints was different.
‘Is there some kind of special trait exclusive to the saint? Since I didn’t notice it even when she was right next to me… there must be something.’
Saint Sophie Ah, who had been meeting Eugene’s eyes, walked towards him with an awkward expression.
“You seem to be strong. You don’t have to worry. I… I’m not in a position to harm anyone. I don’t want to either.”
“A body that can do no harm?”
“I have a special trait that other people don’t have.”
The old nun smiled gently and moved her finger to open her own character window.
[Hidden Class: Seongnye
[These are women chosen by God. They are pure, noble, and always live to be devoted.]
[Exclusive trait: Mercy]
[You cannot cause damage to any ‘living being’ other than yourself.]
[Exclusive characteristic: Inviolable area]
[Minimize ‘hostility’ towards yourself from ‘all other living beings’.]
Unable to share the window, the saintess belatedly introduced her name after briefly explaining the characteristics she was seeing.
“Nice to meet you. My name is Sophia.”
“This is Seon Yu-jin.”
“Han…ga, I’m a guide!”
Sophia shook hands with the two men and immediately asked for a favor.
“I’m sorry to ask you this since we’ve only just met, but… would you be able to join me?”
“Together?”
“I ran away from the guild because there was something bothering me. I’m secretly gathering people.” Sophia, who was looking at the two people tilting their heads, added the reason why she had offered to accompany them.
“If you have time, I would like you to come with me to the 44th floor.”
44th floor.
It was the destination the two were heading to.
“Why the 44th floor?”
When Eugene, who had been wondering why, asked Sophia why she had asked to accompany him to the 44th floor, Sophia answered as carefully as possible.
“The ordeal on the 44.5th floor is blocking the path to the 44th floor… right?”
“yes.”
“That’s… Our guild members blocked the road on purpose. It’s to prevent those coming up from below from catching up.”
Serin frowned as she recalled the ordeal she had faced on the 44th floor.
“It was the Field Guild’s doing. Somehow, it didn’t make sense to say it was just a mistake made by a few rankers.”
On the hidden floor, to lure them down to the lower floor, to the stairs, that level of ordeal… This wasn’t something that could happen due to the mistake of a few rankers.
“I have been opposed to this method for a long time… but I have always had to turn a blind eye to it in the name of a greater cause.”
This decision was a big one for her.
“So… I’m gathering people. The instructors are doing such a good job that it’s hard to ask them for help, so you two are actually the first climbers I’ve ever met.”
Sophia, who had been looking back and forth between Eugene and Serin, looked closely at the hood that Serin was wearing and exclaimed, “Ah!”
“Guide! Are you the Guide from the Gift Guild?”
“Oh, yes… …
“Oh, I see! Sorry, I forgot. I heard you’ve been working hard to clear the 44th floor recently. Regardless of the outcome, I really appreciate it.”
Sophia, who had been nodding her head repeatedly, asked again with an earnest expression.
“I heard that the results of the 44th floor last time didn’t go well… I know that. But… could you do it one more time?”
“excuse me?…”

“I’ll help you. This time… This time, I’ll definitely make it happen!”
When Serin, who was holding the old man’s hand, didn’t know what to do, Eugene opened his mouth instead.
“What a coincidence.”
“yes’?”
“Because we have the same destination.”
“Huh? Were you two also going to the 44th floor?”
As Eugene nodded, Sophia’s expression brightened suddenly.
“Great! Now there are three!”
Sophia nodded, joining the hands of the two people she had been holding together.
“Once we have the minimum number of raid members, we can go down right away. The 44.5th floor trial is my match… I’ll take advantage of that.”
Eugene, who was looking at the back of his hands that were folded into a triangle, shrugged his shoulders and answered.
“Well? I guess I can just go down?”
“Just like that?”
Sophia, who was watching Serin’s reaction to Eugene’s remark, retorted with a worried voice.
“Do you know the level of ordeal blocking the 44th floor?”
When Eugene looked back at Seo-rin with an expression of confusion, Seo-rin answered.
“It’s level 140.”
“Our level is not enough.”
Eugene’s level was displayed as a question mark by the level indicator, but Serin’s level was displayed properly.
[guide]
[Level: 68]
Her level is now 68, having gone up one level by clearing out the goblins on the 41st floor.
It wasn’t low, but it wasn’t high either… At this point, it wasn’t enough to be called a ranker.
“What’s Eugene’s level?” Sophia thought that if he was close to being ranked number one, he could confidently say something like that.
“It’s level 10.”
His level was only 10, not 100.
“I’m not trying to make fun of you, Sophia, but you’re really level 10.”
Eugene, who didn’t feel the need to hide his level from the saint, took off his level cover and showed it to her.
[Seon Yu-jin]
[Level: 10]
It was really level 10.
“Oh, I see.”
Sophia, who was embarrassed at first, clapped her hands together and tried to persuade Eugene.
“Then how about we form a raid party and take on the challenge? Even if we can’t get to 15 people, we should at least get to 10… We should be able to clear the level 140 trial.” Sophia tried to persuade Eugene like a saint, but unfortunately, he was a regular at this tower.
“Why?”
He was unconventional.
“Actually, just being me is enough.”
Sophia blinked at Eugene’s answer and looked at Serin, who was standing next to her, and asked with her eyes.
‘Is this the kind of person you are normally?’
‘ yes.’
Serin sighed with a relieved expression.
“If you don’t trust us, it will be difficult to accompany us.”
Eugene shrugged his shoulders with an expression that said he had wasted time and started looking for the stairs leading to the 44th floor.
“Even if we hadn’t met Sophia, we were planning to go down together.”
The purpose of the two people heading to the 44th floor was neither to tour nor conquer that floor.
“I have something to try.”
Eugene, who had turned around first, stopped walking towards the stairs leading to the 44th floor.
thud.
Okay.
It was because two ogres from the 45th floor of the ordeal had discovered Eugene and were approaching him.
“Kuuuuuuuu!”
The tyrant who had destroyed the forest on the 45th floor roared at his prey.
“Hey, what are you doing? Aren’t you coming?” When Eugene shouted at Seorin, who was still attached to the saint, to come closer, Seorin hurriedly followed after him.
“If you ran away from the Field Guild because of the problem on the 44th floor, I think it’s time to go back.”
Serin, who looked back at Sophia with her luggage on her back, recommended that she go home.
why?
There was no need for her to come down here.
“Because the two of us can solve it.”
Sophia’s mouth fell open in a daze as she witnessed the sight of an ogre rushing towards a level 10 person, beyond the ears of a dog standing with its back to the ground.
‘We have to stop it quickly!’
Before she even thought about putting up a shield… … .
Kuuung!
The knees of both ogres fell to the floor at the same time.
‘ uh?’
Sophia froze.
???Kuuuung!
How heavy their bodies were… As the two ogres fell forward with their bellies rippling, Sophia’s body, which had been standing there blankly, shook once.
But it wasn’t because two ogres shook the ground that she froze.
???There was no head. Judging from the two clean cross sections, it was clear that something sharp had passed through it.
