Episode 59. Birth
Coo!
The floor of the execution platform shook violently.
Then, the black liquid gushing out from the floor shattered the guillotine.
Quang!
It wrapped around Monestier’s body.
‘no way?’
Valentine knew the identity of this suddenly appearing black liquid.
Since she has also climbed the tower in the past, she is already familiar with the wonders of the tower.
In order to prevent what was about to happen, Valentine quickly pulled out his sword and tried to cut down the black liquid.
Kaang!
The black liquid, which instantly took a round shape and solidified, was so hard that even her strength could not cut it.
“… damn.”
The soldiers guarding the execution team watched and attacked at the same time.
“Aaaah!”
“Aaaah!”
The five of them stretched out their spears at the same time and tried to stab them.
Kang!
Of course, it didn’t cause any shock.
If Strange’s sword doesn’t work, what can a single soldier’s blade do?
If Monestier becomes an apostle now, it will be a huge hindrance to Strange. This was thought to be a crisis so big that the family’s history could disappear.
In response, Valentine summoned his Bae Hu-ryeong, whom he had never seen before.
There are rumors like this on the continent.
The only people who face Valentine’s Bae Hu-ryeong are the dead.
This means that Bae Hu-ryeong has secret and powerful powers.
Ssaaaa-
A strange-looking human-faced bird appeared overhead.
A red crow with a human face that is more than twice the size of an adult human.
“Come in.”
Valentine raises his hands above his head.
The human face that had turned into red smoke began to be absorbed through the palm.
Ssssss.
Then, all the smoke enters her body.
Paaaaat!
Two huge red wings protruded from Valentine’s back, reminiscent of the angels written on the tower.
“You guys run straight to Strange Mansion and report this!”
The soldiers responded by running away with frightened expressions.
“yes! “Valentine!”
“All right!”
Valentine waited in front of the black liquid surrounding Monestier, holding his sword.
She judged this to be an area beyond human power.
So I quietly waited for a new person to appear.
But this was a wrong judgment. She should have left, not stayed here.
Kwasizik, Kwasizik, Kwasizik!
As time passed, Monestier broke out of the black shell like an egg and had powers beyond imagination.
“… Dragon?”
Huge flames rained down from the sky.
Grrrrrr!

I shared the rewards for climbing the tower with my party members.
Of course, this time too, there was nothing they wanted. I had hoped that the box would be full of dazzling jewels or gold coins, but the box that Cynthia opened with her strength found only three items.
‘One ring and two bracelets.’
Alfredo’s face distorted.
“So this one damn ring is ours?”
He sarcastically thrust the ring at me and asked if he didn’t like the contents of the box.
“Okay, you don’t have to take it if you don’t want to.”
“No, it’s not that I don’t like it. I think it would be a good idea to be a little more careful when choosing tower rewards next time. “There were a lot of fancy, big treasure chests.”
Well, on the outside it looks much better. The bigger it is, the more items it contains and the more valuable it looks.
‘but.’
“If it’s money, isn’t just processing this request enough?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“Then our goal is to bring back items that can only be obtained from the tower.”
“… … .”
“Now is the time to look for practicality, not glamor.”
Cynthia slaps Alfredo’s back with her palm! and hit it. He scratched the back of his head as if embarrassed and fell back.
‘Anyway, there is one more item in the box than last time.’
Does the number of rewards increase depending on the number of floors? These predictions were reasonable, to some extent, based on experience.
The artifacts our party obtained in the past life were items from the 50th floor, and a total of six were obtained at that time.

I picked up the two bracelets left in the box.
If the artifact I got last time, Talisman Dark Star, was an aggressive object, this one now has the opposite personality.
This artifact currently in my hand has a defensive form.
Crash.
When I put the bracelet on both wrists, the two rubies embedded in the bracelet glowed.
Easy profit-
‘good.’
Now we have the ability to compete head-on with the dragon.
The name of this artifact that sparkles on both arms is ‘Rising Force’, a magical device that blocks enemy magic by condensing the user’s aura.
This is an artifact of a party member who was with me in my past life, and it was an item that played a big role in the war against Glazer.
Back then, I couldn’t use this power properly because I had to part ways with the dragon before facing it, but this time, unlike then, I was able to use it myself.
‘So far, perfect.’
We are now one step closer to getting revenge on the dragon.
Not only in terms of offensive preparation, but also in terms of defense.
‘furthermore.’
Thanks to Cynthia joining us quickly, we were able to have the opportunity to go to the Pope’s Office.
This will allow you to gather the necessary colleagues more quickly than in your previous life.
Kwaaaaang!
Suddenly a loud noise was heard.
At the same time, two unimaginably strong energies were felt within the Legion Castle.
“what?”
This is an auror of a level comparable to that of a mortal apostle, and even in my past life, I have never met anyone this strong.
‘Who on earth is this?’
A person who brought out this level of aura in a human body.
My whole body instinctively went into alert mode.
I reflexively grabbed the handle of the sword and wrapped myself in aura to defend myself.
The appearance of a being so threatening that a battle would probably begin if it were nearby.
I quickly gathered my weapons and told everyone.
“You must remain in the mansion and guard this place, and never come out.”
I don’t know who it is, but the owner of the energy I feel right now is strong.
It also feels too dangerous to deal with without worrying about your colleagues.
“okay.”
“I get it.”
Rox and Cynthia answered simultaneously.
‘thank god.’
If she had been Cynthia in her previous life, I might have drawn a picture of her getting angry when she said she would come with me, but this time, she willingly accepted any command I gave her.
I turned my head and glanced at Judah.
He looked at me and shook his head left and right, as if he didn’t know the identity of the enemy.
If he had known, he would have given me some insight, or he would have opened a book and told me he was accompanying me, and he would have given me a lot of information.
‘… wait for a sec?’
Who really has this much power? While thinking about this question, about ten talented people suddenly passed by.
Of course, since they are not people I have dealt with directly, I cannot be certain that they have this level of power.
Still, from what I heard, it was said that he had a similar level of influence as his father.
“Judah.”
“Oh, huh?”
“You are following me.”
“Why me?”
“Write it down.”
“record?”
“Yes, because the person I will meet from now on seems to be someone important enough to be remembered in history.”
Judah built the statue of Oman.
But he couldn’t refuse my orders.
Before I could continue speaking, Cynthia was pulling him up by the back of his neck.
“If you follow me, I will just follow you. Why are you talking so much? Did you forget what you promised me? “You decided to just follow everything Verdin said.”
“Oh, uh, yes, yes.”
“Did you eat something wrong today?”
“no.”
“But why can’t you understand what I’m saying?”
“… sorry.”
That personality isn’t going anywhere. If they’re party members, they should be considered equals, but they’re pushing it that way.
“Go quickly!”
“Yes, no, yes.”
Judas came next to me with an embarrassed expression. It seemed like a voice was coming from his fierce eyes.
It’s like, ‘Why are you dragging me in?’
“Judas, are you dissatisfied with me?”
Judah glanced at Cynthia and shook his head.
“no. “It can’t be.”
* * *
Two generals who came to the Legion to deal with Marquis Pierre.
A large, muscular man wearing only shorts is radiating an aura all over his body as if he is about to jump out.
“W-what is this?”
The short-haired girl holding the skull head was startled, got up from her chair and looked around.
“I, I, I know who this is!”
The people gathered at the tavern were agitated by their violent reaction.
The other adventurers were also wary of the suddenly enormous level of energy, but they did not make a fuss like them. Because I thought it was nothing compared to the incident that occurred at Strange a few days ago.
“who?”
“Valentine.”
“Valentine?”
“uh! We’ve done imperial requests together before. Even then… . “I’ve never given off such a creepy aura before.”
The short-haired girl swallowed her saliva and continued speaking.
“Everyone there died.”
“Are they all going to die?”
“… “Well, fortunately, I was saved because I was a general.”
The muscular man thought for a moment and then asked the short-haired girl.
“Then who is the other one?”
“The other one?”
“Yes, a guy with an ominous energy, as if he moves with death at his side.”
The girl shook her head left and right.
“I don’t know about that.”
“Hmm… . What do we do?”
“what.”
“What! What are you going to do with those guys now? “This is Legion, a neutral territory, right?”
The Legion’s jurisdiction includes not only the Imperial Army but also the soldiers of the Papal Office.
This means that the ‘Five Great Walls’, which balance the continent, must also manage this place.
The two were worried.
This must be the signal for battle to begin, but should I ignore them and go back or go and figure out the situation?
I don’t know if it was other people, but the muscular man was a ‘general’ and even though he knew about this incident, he couldn’t ignore it.
“Let’s go.”
The short-haired girl raised her skull head and used it as a helmet, then clenched her fists and said.
“Are you going to be okay?”
“If you have to, you can just run away. It would be difficult for even Valentine to deal with both of us at the same time. No, the guy we’re facing now is so strong that we won’t have to worry about it, right?”
“… “It’s scary.”
“How scary! “Is this guy named Jangseong saying something like that?”
The two bickered and eventually came out of the tavern and called for their respective Bae Hu-ryeong.
“Hey, I think I need to use some strength today.”
Above the muscular man’s head is a steel gorilla with two huge fists.
“ha… . It’s been a while since I wanted to take a look around the city. What is this? “I’m sorry, Foxy.”
Above the short-haired girl’s head was a fox with nine tails.
Unlike others who used humans as Bae Hu-ryeong, the two brought out Bae Hu-ryeong, an animal.
“Clarke, just in case, you should never fight with Valentine.”
