Episode 21
Kuung!!
Tower dragon crashing to the ground.
But there was no guardian there.
Suho, who jumped up after stepping on the tower dragon just before it fell, was barely able to hang on to the stone tower and avoid being caught in the fall.
That was when.
[ You have defeated the Tower Dragon . ]
[You have cleared the 49th floor.]
[You have achieved the highest score on the Tower of Challenge.]
[You have successfully conquered the Tower of Challenge for the first time!]
[ For achieving great achievements, the system will gift you 10 bonus stats . ]
[ The system begins evaluating your great challenge . ]
The fallen tower dragon eventually died.
At the same time, countless system notifications appeared, cluttering my vision.
Finally, I succeeded in killing the guy.
‘at las!’
I feel relaxed when I see the notifications pouring in.
However, Suho never let his guard down until the very end and barely managed to get down from the stone tower. Only then was he able to lie down on the ground and catch his breath.
But the corners of my mouth keep going up.
It was natural.
Because I succeeded in hunting the Tower Dragon, which no one had been able to catch in my past or present life.
That was when.
[ Level up . ]
[ All stats increased by 1 . ]
[ You have acquired 1 bonus stat . ]
[You have reached level 40.]
[ The system wants you to become stronger and stronger . ]
[ The system gives you higher powers . ]
[You have acquired 5 bonus stats.]
[The level of all skills exclusive to the healer class increases by one level.]
[ You have acquired the Healing Spirit (B) . ]
Level up.
Although it was only one guy, it had a lot of experience as the final boss, and thanks to that, I was able to level up.
Thanks to this, Suho was able to reach level 40, and upon reaching level 40, Suho received another system perk.
The job skill I acquired this time is ‘Healing Spirit’.
Suho confirmed the information on the healing spirit.
[ Healing Spirit ]
– Grade: B
# Deploy an area that can restore stamina.
# Beings within the healing spirit slowly recover their health, and there is no limit to the number of people as long as they are within the area.
# To deploy Healing Spirit, you need at least one weapon to use as a totem.
Healing Spirit.
It was the first range-based recovery skill that Suho acquired.
Suho recalled Isabella’s immense range of healing power that had once healed the entire battlefield.
‘This must also evolve into its final form.’
It was right after Suho finished checking his skills.
[ The system has finished evaluating your challenge . ]
[ The system has decided to highly value your great challenge and give you a reward appropriate to your level. ]
[ You have mastered Dragon Blood (S+) . ]
The evaluation is complete.
But what was paid in return was something completely unexpected.
Suho was so surprised when he saw the system notification that he jumped up.
‘Hemorrhoid? The hemorrhoid I know? That came from here?’
Suho couldn’t help but doubt his eyes.
That’s because Dragon Blood was a skill that was like a symbol of a certain monstrous player in the past who was called ‘Yongma’.
‘But didn’t the Yongma guy say he got the Dragon’s Blood from a gate other than the Tower of Challenge?’
Dragon Mountains.
Because I was so impressed by what I heard, I clearly remembered the name of the gate that Yongma had told me.
That means it has to be one of two things.
Either the dragon horse guy was lying, or he was able to obtain the dragon’s blood in the Tower of Challenge.
But whatever it is, it doesn’t matter.
The important thing is that I was also given the Dragon Blood skill, which is the symbol and fundamental skill of the Dragon Horse.
Suho immediately checked the information about Yonghyeol.
[ Hemolysis ]
– Grade: S+
# The great dragon’s bloodline.
# Those with Dragon’s Blood can enjoy the power of a dragon, even if they were not born as a dragon, depending on their efforts.
# Lv.1 – Dragon Blood: Overpower (S), Dragon Spirit (S).

also.
Dragon Blood was the growth skill that Suho had been watching.
In addition, the current guardian has unlocked the first stage of Dragon Blood’s awakening effects.
Thanks to this, the A-rank pressure skill was naturally upgraded to S-rank.
‘I never thought I’d get my hands on Dragon’s Blood like this.’
Suho smiled brightly, unable to hide his laughter.
That’s because with the Dragon Blood skill I’ve acquired this time, I’m confident that I can become stronger in this life than my previous life.
At that moment, the corpse of the tower dragon, the master of the tower, began to disappear.
It was a natural progression.
Except for special monsters like Red Gain, the monsters on the top were supposed to disappear quickly, unlike the monsters inside the gate.
But then it happened.
[Gwiyeongchang reacts to the shadow of the Tower Dragon.]
[Gwiyeongchang absorbs the shadow of the tower dragon.]
[ The ghost window is strengthened . ]
‘It’s started.’
Suho narrowed his eyes.
That would be the case, since the ghost window had a special function.
[Gwiyeongchang has completely absorbed the Tower Dragon’s shadow.]
[Magic power supply is sufficient.]
[Gwiyoungchang’s consciousness awakens.]
[ Congratulations. You have succeeded in awakening some of Guiyeongchang’s consciousness. ]
[ Item information is subject to change . ]
[You have obtained the Ghost Spear (S+).]
Only when all the notifications came to mind did Suho smile in satisfaction.
Although it is not listed in the information, there is one special option hidden in the ghost window.
That’s right, ‘shadow predation’.
The Ghost Spear is a plus-grade item that is basically affected by its owner, but sometimes it can grow on its own and evolve its abilities or release hidden abilities.
And the world sometimes called such weapons growth weapons.
Suho checked the information of the upgraded ghost window.
[Gwiyeongchang]
– Grade: S+
# Stage 2: Guiyeongchang awakens to consciousness.
# It is possible to use ‘Gwiyeong (S)’, which recognizes the first person to awaken its consciousness as its owner and can be pulled out from the owner’s shadow at any time.
# A broken ghost spear can be repaired and re-summoned at any time with the effect of ‘Shadow Regeneration (S)’ as long as you have shadow and magic power.
# It is possible to use ‘Shadow Lock (S)’, which bites the target’s shadow and freezes the target’s movements.
# While the shadow fang is stuck in the target’s shadow, the target takes bleeding damage every second due to the ‘Shadow Bleeding (S)’ effect.
2.
Not only were the additional options that were previously A-grade upgraded to S-grade, but two more S-grade skills were added, bringing the total to four.
Suho quietly raised the corners of his lips.
‘It’s a growth weapon after all. It’s on a different level from regular weapons.’
The only thing that is a bit disappointing is that this is a spear, not a sword.
Of course, there was already someone I had in mind for the sword.
Soon, the tower dragon’s corpse completely disappeared.
But something remained where the tower dragon disappeared.
When he got closer and looked, he saw that it was a tooth the size of a person’s fist. Suho’s eyes widened when he saw it.
‘no way?’
Teeth.
Even pointy.
I quickly checked the information, thinking it couldn’t be Suho.
[ Dragon’s Fang ]
– Rating: S
# The great dragon’s fang.
# Those who are stabbed by the dragon’s fangs are cursed with ‘no recovery (S)’.
Suho, who checked the item information, got goosebumps all over his body.
I thought to myself, “That can’t be true,” and checked, and my suspicion turned out to be true.
‘I can’t believe I got my hands on the dragon’s teeth here… …!’
The dragon’s byproducts become S-class materials just by their existence.
However, it was extremely difficult to collect them, and only the byproducts of dragons with the ‘pure-blood’ trait, not monsters classified as ‘dragon species’, were worth it, so it was extremely difficult to obtain them, let alone see them.
That’s understandable, because even Su-ho, who was the world’s greatest prosecutor, only saw two dragons in his life.
Suho’s eyes sparkled.
‘I guess I can use it when I make that.’
An unexpectedly good ingredient came in.
So, of course, this is the law that should be used when making the best items.
So its use has already been decided.
‘He’ll like it.’
Of course, who knows who will touch it.
Finally, everything was finally sorted out.
Maybe because the double slope burst, my body didn’t feel any pain anymore.
Suho walked towards the exit portal that appeared before his eyes.
***
[The Tower Dragon has been slain.]
[ The 49th floor has been conquered. ]
[The Tower of Challenge has been conquered.]
[The guide is player An Su-ho.]
[ All players are forcibly ejected as the Tower of Challenge is conquered. ]
The Tower of Challenge has been conquered.
Thanks to that, a strange phenomenon occurred where the world, which was already noisy because of Suho, exploded once again.
– What the heck, I had my doubts, but this is really a strategy?
– The Tower of Challenge has been conquered!
– But you said you passed the hunter exam today?
– An Su-ho, he is a god. An Su-ho, he is a god. An Su-ho, he is a god. An Su-ho, he is a god. An Su-ho, he is a god. An Su-ho, he is a god. An Su-ho, he is a god. An Su-ho, he is a god. … …
– Mom! I want to grow up and be An Su-ho! Mom! I want to grow up and be An Su-ho! Mom! I want to grow up and be An Su-ho! Mom! I want to grow up and be An Su-ho! Mom! I want to grow up and be An Su-ho! Mom! I want to grow up and be An Su-ho! … …
There was chaos both offline and online.
Is that all?
At the entrance of the Tower of Challenge, various media outlets, YouTubers, and even ordinary people flocked to see the guard, and immediately after the tower was conquered, everyone rushed to publish articles.
As Suho finally appeared outside through the exit portal, everyone fired their flashes outside the safe line.
Click! Click! Click!
“Mr. An Su-ho! Please look here!”
“Mr. An Su-ho! Please say something!”
“Mr. An Su-ho!”
“An Su-ho!!”
Suho, who came out of the tower, stood inside the safe line that was laid out as soon as the gate was cleared.
This place is like a trophy stage where only the conquerors can enter.
Suho looked up at the sky.
The sky is really clear.
I haven’t tried it yet.
Suho looked around with a refreshed expression, and soon after, he was able to make eye contact with Jo Jin-hwi, who was looking at him with a blank expression.
Suho, who found him, raised one corner of his mouth and made a phone call.
The recipient is, of course, Jo Jin-hwi.
Jo Jin-hwi, who saw the caller, awkwardly answered the phone while still making eye contact with Su-ho.
– hello?
“How can you believe me now?”
– … … .
I had nothing to say.
Crazy guy.
I really thought I’d be able to conquer the Tower of Challenge alone.
Is that why?
Jo Jin-hwi, whose mind was now much lighter, smiled as he brushed back his messy hair.
– You know you’re f*cking crazy, right?
“If you don’t have confidence, tell me now. I’ll switch to another reporter.”
– If you want to become a great person, you have to play in big waters. Of course I am confident.
“Okay. Did you bring the car?”
– Yes, I brought it.
“That’s a yellow Ferrari, right? The symbol of the golden rag. I’ll be heading to the parking lot in a bit, so start the engine and wait.”
Jo Jin-hwi chuckled at those words.
His expression is like, “How did you know about my car?”
But soon, he followed the order and went to wait for the car, and Suho looked around once more.
At that moment, black vans began to approach from afar, cutting through the crowd of people.
People started getting out of the stopped van, and Suho could tell right away who they were.
They were employees of the Constitutional Court.
The Return of the High-ranking Civil Servant
