Episode 442: The Giant
Prism Rainbow.
It’s a stealth skill of SS rank.
There was an explanation that complete hiding was possible because the level was high, and the effect was excellent.
“Sticky?”
The giant rat that had been watching me suddenly disappeared, was startled, and started to run away quickly.
From that guy’s perspective, it’s like a person who was standing there fine disappeared in an instant.
“That’s amazing.”
“Yeah.”
Deokchun nods his head in agreement.
Stealth skills are more advanced than you might think, and often come with a variety of conditions attached.
The path of the loner that I was using at the time was effective against those in human form, but it was less effective against beast-like monsters.
The function is also different. It is said that the length of the loner is leaking, and this is transparency.
Not only my body, but also the equipment I have, including Deokchun, become transparent.
Yet I can still perceive my own body, albeit somewhat transparent.
“It seems like you can’t hide your voice.”
Kook. If you press your foot hard, a footprint will be created.
If you move roughly, it looks like footprints will be left behind.
I’m not sure about the smell. Since it’s a skill close to transparency, the smell won’t be hidden either.
Well, if all the sounds, smells, and traces are obscured, it might be possible to make it SSS-grade, not SS-grade.
Just this much is enough.
The Pelline set is combined into one, strengthening existing effects and creating new options.
[Pelin’s Rainbow Set (SSS)]
-All stats +200
-Comfort (D)
-Sharing sensations (C)
-Quiet footsteps (A)
-Noise reduction (B)
.
.
.
Noise reduction and quiet footsteps.
Thanks to these two skills, I was able to move quite quietly despite wearing armor.
Even before that, moving stealthily was not a problem if you controlled your movements.
“I guess I’ll have to check how long it lasts.”
Among the Felline skills, there are some that have a set usage time, like Astral Rainbow, but there are also some that do not have a set number of uses or duration, like Rainbow Bridge.

I think I’ll have to try out this skill myself to see how long it lasts and what the effects are.
I ended up falling from the 81st floor and had to start a new scenario.
‘It’s the age of giants.’
I knew I’d meet giants while climbing, but I didn’t know I’d be dropped right into their world.
Giants. Of course, there is little information revealed. It is impossible for hunters outside to know about the race that appears on the 80th floor.
In addition to that.
[New rules apply to NPCs located on the 80th floor.]
This part also concerned me.
New rules. Rules are very important at the top. They have a big impact on the strategy.
Let’s check.
[NPCs in the world trying to escape the destruction of the 80th floor cannot choose a successor.]
“Hmm?”
Can’t save the successor?
For NPCs, isn’t the Successor the last way to get a new chance?
At least that’s what I know. How it works is still a mystery though.
I read through the information carefully. There must be a reason they made such a rule.
After some time had passed and I had read through the rules, I gave a small nod to my face.
“So, phew… It’s going to be completely different from the 70th floor.”
To summarize it simply, this is it.
A climber who has climbed to the 80th floor is likely to climb to the 100th floor.
That is, the NPCs here can choose their successors under much better conditions than the NPCs located on lower floors.
For the sake of fairness, NPCs on the 80th floor will be deprived of the right to choose a successor. Instead… … .
“NPCs who achieve the feat of escaping complete destruction in a scenario are given a chance.”
Of course, the NPCs on the 80th floor know that they are NPCs.
It was a clear difference from the 70th floor. The NPCs here would struggle to escape destruction.
Of course, it won’t be easy.
Since there are few people who climb to the 80th floor, opportunities are limited, and the tower places strict emphasis on fairness in some areas.
It was clear that the 80th floor scenario would be one where there was little chance of escaping destruction.
It’s probably best to think of it as almost impossible. I can see why the 80th floor is called the world that is trying to escape destruction.
Besides, you know.
“It feels like there’s a strange mix of traps.”

I felt a strange sense of discomfort. There was nothing strange about the content on the surface, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was missing something.
Could it be a simple illusion? I hope so.
I shrugged my shoulders and looked up at the sky.
This scenario is the Age of the Giants. Floor 81. The title of the first chapter is.
[Chapter I – The Sky Falls]
The sky is falling, is that a literal meaning or a metaphor?
At first glance, it looks fine. The sky is clear and there are a few clouds.

If I had to pick one thing that was unique.
“There are two suns.”
Maybe that’s why the weather seems a bit hot.
Let’s get moving for now. Nothing gets organized just by staying still.
The world here is so big that it seems like you have to climb up high to see the whole thing.
Wouldn’t unique vegetation be a way to obtain new potion ingredients?
I felt a little bit of anticipation, but… … .
“It doesn’t seem like there’s anything different about it other than the size?”
“Yeah, yeah.”
I was so surprised by its ridiculously large size that I didn’t notice it, but it’s basically a plant commonly seen on top.
At this point, I feel like it’s just me who’s gotten smaller.
When I was climbing the mountain range as if I was taking a walk.
-Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
-The sun has risen!
-Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!
“What, what is it!”
A cry like thunder erupted.
A voice that echoed from all directions, so much so that it was impossible to guess where it was coming from.
Birds startled by the noise fly up.
I too was on guard and tense.
Judging from the echo, it seemed to be coming from beyond the mountains, but in reality, I don’t know where it was.
They’re not monsters. Judging from the mixed sentences, they’re clearly giants.
-Dududududududu
The ground shakes.
The sound of footsteps going nowhere.
It feels like the whole world is ringing.
I climbed up to the highest tree I could find, while maintaining my cover.
I would have liked to climb to the top of the mountain and look around, but I don’t think I’ll have time to do that, so I thought I’d check it out from here.
-Pfft!
-Kirarararak!
“… Are large-sized monsters the norm here? No, extra-large-sized?”
Perhaps stimulated by the giants’ roar, the monsters were screaming and causing chaos.
What you see there looks like a Mega Mammoth, a 6-star monster, and that’s a Wyvern.
They are all obviously big guys, but here they are just ordinary.
There’s no other reason, it’s just that the other guys are too big.
Advertisements
-Karrrrrrr!
A giant puma-like creature leaps up and lands with a bite to the wyvern’s neck.
That’s not all. There are monsters that appear to be native to the Giant World rolling around with regular monsters.
“It’s a native monster that preys on 5-star and 6-star monsters.”
Not only the Demon World, but also the Giant World has a brutal environment.
That’s why they say we can escape destruction.
The monsters that come out of the tower are just ordinary people to the residents here.
What is ordinary? It’s actually an easier opponent. Even 5-star monsters can’t reach the top predator position.
It has to be at least 6 stars to be worth a try.
That’s why the Giant World appears from the 80th floor. If it had appeared before, all the climbers would have been swept away.
-Thump! Thump! Thump!
The vibration is getting closer.
It’s different than before. A noise coming from nearby. It’s moving towards me.
Woodduck.
A figure running towards you, destroying trees.
“How long has it been since a climber came up! Hahahaha!”
A giant with red hair came running down the ridge, laughing heartily.
There was a river in the middle though.
-Hooooong
-Kwaaang!
Jump over it at the same speed as you are running.
Oh my goodness, I can’t measure it exactly because it’s far away, but the river must be at least 30 meters wide, and he jumps over it without even running properly.
His armament was nothing special. He was wearing loose clothing and his only weapon was a club hanging from his waist.
He passes the tree I’m under.
It doesn’t seem like he came to see me. It seems like our paths just happened to overlap.
Thanks to that, I know one thing: the stealth is working properly.
“Kuaaaah!”
“Hahahaha! There’s a strange guy here!”
A giant monster emerged from the ground, apparently displeased with the giant invading its territory.
6 star monster, Underground Hand.
It is named after its large body with five thick tentacles that resemble hands.
As it is a 6-star species, it is considered to be an extremely dangerous species.
-Puggeukgeuk!
-Saturated! Aaaah!
The giant grabbed the attacking tentacle and tore it off.

The toxic fluid poured out and the remaining tentacles twitched as if in convulsion.
“You worm!”
The giant didn’t even flinch.
The guy who tore off all the tentacles he could catch put his hand deep into the ground and pulled out the whole thing.
It was as thick as three large buses combined, but it didn’t seem to bother the giant.
“Woooooooo!”
-Pubberbubbubung!
As I threw punches in succession, the hand burst like a water balloon.
Wow, how ignorant.
I’m so speechless.
The monster called Jihason is like an octopus whose entire body is made of muscle, and it boasts incredibly tough skin and durability like a block of metal. But you can tear that apart with your bare hands?
He didn’t even use any skills. He just caught it with his physical strength.
I thought about it objectively.
Could I do something like that?
‘I can do it, but it will take more time.’
It might be different if you had a sword, but if you try to cause trouble with your bare hands, swinging it once or twice won’t give you an answer.
Because the difference is in size, not strength.
The place where such people are rampant is the Giant World.
Used the power.
[SSS-class power, the eye that gazes upon the stars is unleashed.]
-Tsuzuzuzuzut
The power that rose through the ranks past the 80th floor extracted the giant’s information.
[Gregory – NPC]
-Red-haired giants.
-Giant people have strong magic resistance!
-A monstrous race with a combination of powerful physiques and race-specific magic!
-A warrior of the red-haired tribe.
– Strong resistance to magic, especially fire.
We were even able to figure out race and tribal characteristics.
A warrior, just a regular warrior at that level. I guess when you get to the 80th floor, even the NPCs are extraordinary.
The only good thing is that I’m not a cult member?
I don’t plan on approaching it right away. I plan on checking out a few more giants and making contact with the ones with relatively mild temperaments.
[Prism Rainbow ends.]
… That’s what it was. As expected, things in this world don’t go as I want them to.
The timing was amazing and the hiding was released.
“hmm?”
“Ha, haha. Hello?”
I climbed up the tree and waved awkwardly when our eyes met.
Advertisements
It’s really big, really.
About 10 meters? Maybe bigger.
-See profit
The bastard’s mouth is wide open.
Just blowing air from the nose causes the trees to sway.
The moment when a slightly uncomfortable breeze crumples my expression.
“You’re a climber. Hahahahaha!”
The guy who burst out laughing had bright eyes.
“You won’t die. You can never die! Because you never know when the next climber will come up!”
Phew.
The bastard’s hand moves.
Are you trying to catch me like this?
“If you don’t resist, you won’t get hurt. Just be locked in the cage for a little while!”
Two hands approaching me like a giant wall closing in.
ha.
I let out a small sigh.
[Fire Bomb (S) Lv.10+]
-Kwaaaaaaaang!
“Eww!”
The sudden explosion causes the guy to pull his hand away.
“Who do you think is a beast? Why are you locking him up?”
Chakang.
He drew his sword.
“Okay, just. I guess I’ll make the number of arms and legs odd.”
