242. God of Proof (5)
Somehow, I increased my enemies again.
‘With this, the number of deities hostile to me has increased again.’
Of course, even if this couldn’t be helped, there was no unpleasant feeling.
It was worth it.
The eyes of the evil god seen through the cracks in the cracked space.
The size of the power that resided beyond that made it impossible to guarantee victory, even if I was in a state of deification.
So it didn’t feel good to increase the number of enemies like this.
but… … .
‘Still, if I win against the evil god later, I’ll be able to gain a lot.’
Even so, it wasn’t too much of a stress.
After all, just being one of the candidates for the tower is turning the deities into enemies anyway.
You made an enemy who couldn’t guarantee victory?
If that’s the case, it’s enough to spur growth and develop enough strength to win.
So far, I have become so strong, and this will not change much in the future.
‘I’ll have to stay in the tower until I can deal with the godhead as much as possible.’
And in order to become stronger quickly, I had to win what I wanted in this <Proof Field>.
Compensation Elevation Rights.
After completing the upgrade of this exclusive privilege, which is still only halfway… … .
You’ll be able to get your hands on a growth rate that’s completely different from before.
so… … .
「You have entered the Sacred Zone <The Field of Proof [Step 4]>.」
Now it was time to finish all the tasks of <Proof Field>.
[ … … . ]
Since the apotheosis has not been solved, the fourth task should be able to be completed quickly.
So, I figured it would be okay to grasp the surrounding environment and achieve the clear conditions right away.
But it didn’t take long before I realized that I was wrong.
That would be too… … .
[What else is this? ]
This is because the newly entered space is a place where there really is nothing.
A space-like background that makes it questionable how it stands.
The only things in this place are pieces of glass floating as if wandering in the black space… … .
I couldn’t understand what the hell this was.
But there was no time to think too deeply.
「A task in the Sacred Zone <The Field of Proof [Step 4]> has occurred.」
「※Task Description: Receive recognition from the God of Proof that you are worthy of gaining power.」
「※Task Success Condition: Prove your qualifications to receive power from the God of Proof (0/1)」
「※Task Success Reward: Clear 4 stages · Reward increase authority upgrade · Mirror of Faith (SSS-)」
A system message popped up in my field of vision as if I had lost my thoughts before I knew it.
And at the same time, a divine voice echoed in my ears.
It’s very clear too.
[You saw it faster than I thought. ]
A voice I’ve definitely heard before.
He turned his head without a second’s hesitation, and a familiar face appeared.
Clear eyes that seem to reflect everything like a mirror.
This was a being with a history of encountering once in the giant tree labyrinth.
[Challenger Han Seong-yoon. ]
It’s not different… … .
[Welcome to my temple as promised. ]
He was the god of proof.
***
I felt it when I saw it in the giant tree labyrinth before, but the God of Proof had power like a monster.
A divinity so deep and dense that it could be said to be directly under the ancient deity.
To be honest, I wondered if it would be possible to achieve that level with the combined efforts of a few candidates chosen by the top.
In response, I looked at the remaining duration of Apotheosis.
‘… … At least until the end of the conversation, the apotheosis seems to continue without difficulty.’
Even if I had to fight against the God of Proof, I was confident that I would run away in the apotheosis state.
Right now, I have half the power of a god.
Of course, that chastity was so pale that it could not be compared to a godhead that had reached perfection.
Still, I relaxed a little because I didn’t have to be helpless by the opponent.
While doing so, the god of proof opened his mouth before he knew it.
[I must say that it took a lot of work to get here. Because of the causality rate, I made them go through useless procedures. ]
At the same time he said that, he made a small gesture in the air.
[Ah, but I think I paid enough for you. It’s because the tower gave me quite a few rewards. ]
And at the same time, following that hand gesture, a chair suddenly appeared in an empty seat, and he sat down on that chair.
Seeing that, I narrowed my eyes.
It was worth it.
Because I could feel the dignity of the god of proof in that small gesture.

‘… … Is it possible to use divine power like that?’
Should I say that it is a level that perfectly handles the divinity replacement obtained from the battle with the usurper?
It was amazing.
Beyond simply replacing divine power with other types of power, he created matter.
It is also in a very stable form.
‘Is this a real divinity?’
It could be said that the level is completely different.
It was different from me, who had to use apotheosis to properly demonstrate his power.
It’s like you can do that at any time.
In response, I quietly looked at the chair made by the god of proof and engraved his skills in my mind as if pondering.
In the future, I might be able to use the same technique with even this as nourishment.
Imprinting in my mind the technique the God of Proof showed me, I opened my mouth soon.
[The process of making up for the causal rate was not too bothersome. It was fun in its own way, and the rewards were salty. ]
[ okay? Good luck then. Giving the tower a reward is a way that puts a lot of pressure on me too. ]
[Oh, I guess that’s okay. It’s hard to see things like skill proficiency increase potions even in the Tower. ]
It was sincere.
How can you get something like a skill proficiency potion through these easy events?
Even though it took a while, there was no way I wouldn’t like it.
Even all the stat increases and other additional income were fine.
[But I didn’t come here to get those things. ]
however… … .
[ Know. They were definitely great rewards… … . They are nothing more than a reward for completing a task. ]
In the end, even those rewards are mere appetizers compared to what’s to come.
[I’ll give you the authority to increase the reward later, so you can ask what you want to know before that. ]
and.
[That’s a promise with you. ]
Hearing those words, I immediately raised my will and activated my exclusive authority.
「Exclusive authority #A-9871[Blind line of sight] is activated.」
「All deities and administrators’ gazes are blocked at once.」
Chijiji-.
The eyes of the managers, who had been pouring weakly until now, were blocked all at once.
‘I’m sorry to the administrators, but I can’t let them see this.’
Among the information obtained while climbing the tower, there are things that are difficult to tell even to the manager.
The Iron Blood Lord and the White Crane Swordsman can be said to be good enough, but… … .
Still, I wanted to hear this by myself.
[If that’s the case, let’s start by asking the most curious questions. ]
That’s what the subject should be.
[What is the other side of me that I saw before in the 11th floor ordeal? ]
My other future that I saw in the ordeal on the 11th floor then.
I wanted to know more about what it was.
Why was his personality broken to the point of slaughtering people, and why did he become hostile to those he considered to be colleagues?
[I knew you would ask that. Anyway, someday you’ll find out. So let me tell you the truth. ]
and.
[ It was a good choice not to allow administrators to see this place. If you didn’t, you’d be in pretty trouble. ]
next moment.
[Challenger Han Seong-yoon. 27th floor ordeal. There you will kill the admins. two of them too. ]
The shocking truth came out more than I thought.
***
For a moment, my mind went blank.
‘In the trial on the 27th floor, the iron-blooded lord and the White Crane Swordsman… … , I’ll kill you?’
I couldn’t understand.
[ … … . ]
It was worth it.
I didn’t hate them, I liked them.
It’s because they don’t have a bad personality and they always sincerely wanted my growth more than anything else.
Even if the opportunity to kill them comes, I will not kill them.
So, I couldn’t understand the idea that I would kill those two in the ordeal on the 27th floor.
… … However, even if I couldn’t understand it, I could immediately understand why it was like that, apart from the understanding.
[ 27th floor ordeal. The content is the murder of the administrators who contracted it. There are no other clear conditions… … . ]
If the condition for clearing the 27th floor ordeal given by the Tower of Trials was the murder of the manager, it would make sense.
[ Yes. ]
In fact, the god of proof was not denied either.
[The trial on the 27th floor… … , It was a struggle with the contracted managers. But those two did not resist you, and in the end they met your death. ]
[ … … . ]
[So that’s just how it happened. Once you cross the line, it is impossible to go back. Here’s how to explain it properly. ]
[ … … . ]
[You did anything to become strong. But that’s because the other person was hostile to you. I didn’t openly kill innocent people. ]
[ … … That’s right. ]
[That’s what caught your ankle. stupidly. Killing the administrators who cared for him must have made his mind very unstable. ]
I felt an unbearable shaking and immediately activated the Fire Dragon’s Eye.
In the hope that maybe all of this is a lie.
However, the result that appeared in the system message was disastrous.
That would be too… … .
「The skill ‘Fire Dragon’s Eye’ detects that there is no lie in the opponent’s words.”
It was because even the skill in Hwaryongan informed that the god of proof was not lying.
[I can’t believe it. But i don’t lie There is no need for that. ]
[ … … So are you really saying I’m killing administrators who didn’t even resist? ]
[Maybe so. Oh, by the way, the source of the information is the divine authority I possess. I have the power to see the future by reading the law of cause and effect. ]
[ … … . ]
Hwaryongan announced that this was also true.
In response, I opened and closed my lips several times.
Because this is absolutely unbelievable information.
But that was only for a moment.
Even if you are shocked by the unpredictable truth, there is something you should ask at this time.
[ … … I know this is the truth I wished for. But before that, I want to ask you something. ]
It’s not different… … .
[Why the hell did you prepare to tell me this from the 11th floor? ]
Why did the god of proof want to tell me this information?
That was from the first time he saw me on the 11th floor.
Maybe there is another truth or something.
No, that’s how it should be, I thought so inadvertently.
[That’s right, I didn’t want everything to go the way the tower had prepared. ]
However, the answer that followed was far from what I wanted.
[What is that… … . ]
That would be too… … .
[The ordeal on the 27th floor must have been prepared by the Tower to completely remove your brakes. That’s why I let you know. ]
This is because the God of Proof did not prepare to inform me of this information because there was another truth.
[Because it’s not very beautiful when something like a tower hinders the proof of someone like you. ]
It was the mindset that should be called the belief that he had as a godhead that moved him.
[ … … Hmm. It seems that this has touched the planting of the tower. I can’t speak any longer. ]
But is it that he won’t give me a chance to calm down?
[But keep this one in mind. 27th floor ordeal. It is now up to you to decide what to do in that place. ]
The God of Proof immediately looked at me as if it couldn’t be helped and beckoned.
[Will new beliefs dwell in you, who are not interested in anything but becoming stronger? ]
Subsequently, a sense of floating arose that was caused by being expelled from space, which was often experienced throughout the body.
[This must also be part of the proof. that would be fun Don’t wait for your choice here. ]
and… … .
「You have cleared the task of the Sacred Zone <Proof Stage [Step 4]>.」
「※ As a reward for completing the task, you will be able to enter the <Proof Stage [Step 4]>.」
「※ ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ will be sent to your inventory as a reward for completing the task.」
「*Acquire Exclusive Authority #D-0007 [Increase Reward (1/2)] as a reward for completing the task, and evolve Exclusive Authority #D-0007 [Increase Reward (1/2)].」
Watching the feast of system messages filling my eyes, I thought.
「Acquired exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increase reward].」
“It becomes possible to raise all kinds of reward grades.”
「Unlike before, all kinds of compensation grades can be increased by +1.」
If you really have to kill the administrators in the 27th floor ordeal… … .
「Enter the common area on the 21st floor.」
What choices will I make then?
