The Protagonist of the TS Posession Is Obsessed With Me - Chapter 219



Episode 219 – Seungsan

Entrance to the Tower of Babel

“… “It’s quiet.”

Stia took a look around and muttered softly.

“That’s right. “I don’t see a single bug.”

It is indeed true.

It was because we kept talking noisily, but from the moment we entered Babylonia, the place was filled with silence.

In this city of inestimable size, how can not even a single trace of a small animal be detected?

A truly dead city.

This city, once the most brilliant and prosperous city, now exuded a quiet aura of death.

Life exists everywhere in the world.

Humans live in cities, and animals live in places where there are no humans.

And in all those places, various insects, such as beneficial insects and pests, settle down, and the birds that eat those insects also build nests and live there.

Life exists even in the deep sea.

That is the natural law and ecology of this world.

But there is nothing like that here, so it feels like something is missing… It felt like a place far away from the world.

“… “Then, shall we go in?”

When I composed myself and tried to reach out toward the entrance to the Tower of Babel, Scarlett suddenly blocked me.

“No sleep!!”

“What’s wrong?”

Scarlett looks nervous. She asked with a more serious face than she had ever seen before.

“… When you go in, does it start right away? Well, a monster comes out….”

“Probably so, right?”

According to the setting, the ‘trial of the tower’ begins the moment you enter the Tower of Babel.

This is not just a tower, but a huge magical space.

The moment we enter, we will be scattered and transported into the labyrinth, and must overcome the ordeal with our own strength.

That is the ordeal of the first floor of the Tower of Babel.

“I warn you once again, but it’s better not to trust anyone from the inside.”

This is a real labyrinth.

It is different from the labyrinth created by Odin’s eye, and it is also slightly different from the fantasy labyrinth created by the archmages Sharwen and Garlowin.

The former merely released a few monsters and chimeras into a twisted maze.

Since the latter was created for training purposes, there are differences from reality.

“It may be similar to Mr. Sharwen’s Labyrinth, but… “Because there are not only monsters and traps in there, but also tricks made up of illusions.”

Although we do not know what the illusion of the Tower of Babel is, it creates an illusion based on the subject’s memory.

People who are exactly the same as those in your memories appear, tempt you to not climb the tower, and sometimes even attack you.

It’s literally each person’s own life.

Even if you meet a real colleague, it makes you suspicious. Therefore, from the beginning, you must assume that all characters you meet in the labyrinth are illusions and do not trust them and avoid them.

The first floor trial theme of the tower is ‘Prove yourself.’

It is to verify whether you have the minimum qualifications to climb the tower with your own strength.

Usually, more than half of the people fail here….

I quietly looked around at the faces of my colleagues.

Everyone, you have achieved great growth together with me. To fight not even against the Demon King, but against the Demon God.

It will not be blocked at least on the first floor of the labyrinth, and it should not be blocked.

If there’s anything I’m a little worried about, it’s Celie and Scarlett….

Selly is also a saint blessed by the same star as me, and although she has never had a chance to be active, she has outstanding skills.

Scarlett is very scared and has a lot of worries… Her skills themselves are outstanding.

It seems like her self-esteem and confidence in her own skills have dropped a lot since she sparred with us and lost every time.

That’s because we were her opponents, not because she was weak.

I hope that Scarlett can find her confidence through this opportunity.

“Then everyone, see you on the 1.5Th floor.”

In the tower, there is a resting space between floors.

The same applies between the 1st and 2nd floors.

No matter who clears it first, the unfortunate event of being thrown to the second floor and having to survive on the second floor alone will not happen.

“I’ll go first.”

There is no benefit in wasting time. I have to go anyway.

I passed Scarlett and opened the entrance.

The light that began to emanate from the gap in the door enveloped my body.

The next moment, I was inside the labyrinth.

*

“… What can I say? “I’m used to it now.”

When I was kidnapped by Odin’s eyes and when I was training in Sharwen’s fantasy labyrinth.

I even experienced this in the sewer where I obtained the Shinam Sword.

It’s dark and damp. A huge amount of magical energy is choking you, and the magical energy in the air that is greater than that magical energy is extremely unpleasant.

It interferes with the smooth movement of my magic power, and it begins to eat away at my mental power little by little.

I thought I would never be able to adapt, but the body of a superhuman was more adaptable than I thought.

Because it is a space we have become so familiar with now.

I was able to take a step without hesitation.

‘Fortunately, they don’t attack as soon as they are warped.’

From Noble mtl dot com

Does the demon who touched the Tower of Babel have at least a conscience?

Throwing a monster at a person who had just warped and lost consciousness could have caused great damage, but he did not do so.

‘Or maybe I just got lucky and was warped to a place where there was nothing.’

Anyway, I’m not really curious.

I took out an ordinary long sword from my subspace bracelet.

I plan to avoid using Durandal in the future if possible. At least on the first floor of the tower.

The reason is simple.

‘What is that? They say that no matter how high your level is, the most important thing is the basics.’

The source was a cartoon or web novel, but it is true.

If you do not lay a solid foundation, whatever you build on top of it is bound to be jeopardized.

The most important thing is the basics.

And in order to sharpen the basics even a little more, I will go back to the basics and try using an ordinary long sword.

Swing the longsword once in place.

‘It will take a while to get used to it.’

My Durandal and Stia’s Astra are the most perfect things in the world.

That’s right, because these are weapons made by the goddess herself.

Not to mention its durability and power, even its weight and center of gravity are perfect.

It’s truly new. Or objects that should be called relics.

Whoever holds the hand will be able to achieve unity between the gods and the sword. Because it was made that way.

The problem is that only qualified people can hold it.

Therefore, Durandal is already a part of my body. It moves completely as I want and cuts down the enemy.

However, this long sword is different.

It was not minted for a specific person.

It was made in a way that anyone can take it, has a poor center of gravity and is not very durable.

Just an ordinary long sword.

Since it is the academy’s supply weapon, it is much better than what is sold on the market….

“But I have to be satisfied with this for now.”

I can’t reproduce Halo.

To overcome the devil.

Furthermore, in order to obtain the minimum strength to fight the demon god, the strength that must be obtained is essential.

That’s why I thought about it.

Just rushing forward is not the solution.

Sometimes you have to turn your head to see if there is another way, or go back the way you came and check if you are going well.

Building from the foundation was for that purpose.

Starting again from the beginning, finding clues about the conditions and qualifications for reaching divinity.

And the goal is to recreate divinity before conquering the Tower of Babel.

As I blindly walked along, I saw the shape of a familiar monster in the distance.

A monster encountered so many times in the Labyrinth of Odin’s Eye and the Labyrinth of Illusion.

Minotaur.

“It’s only natural since they are both modeled after this place….”

Still, I’m a little dissatisfied. The same guys show up every day.

He mumbles his dissatisfaction and adjusts his sword.

Still, it is a good opportunity. A great opportunity to see how much my skills have improved.

‘Do not use Durandal, keep magic power consumption and movement to a minimum.’

Magical power as thin as a solid line surrounds the sword.

It appears to be a very weak ray of magical power, but in reality, it is not like that.

Even if I can’t recreate it, I have touched divinity, even if just for a moment. There is no way that magic efficiency will be the same as before.

Wow!

The Minotaur discovers me and begins to run screaming.

Before the Minotaur could even get close, I gently stabbed my sword in the direction of the guy.

‘Maximum efficiency with minimum physical consumption.’

It is not a spear. It wasn’t said that the magic power contained in it was simply ignorant.

The sword, thinly coated with magical power, was stretched forward.

But that was enough.

The magic energy wrapped around the sword exploded like a thread being released, spreading widely and shooting forward.

──!

It was fired without a sound.

Suddenly.

The body of the huge Minotaur was disassembled into small pieces.

“Oh….”

Embarrassment comes later.

I didn’t plan on doing it like this.

But this has made it clear. I am… It’s strong now.

It’s not just a lie, it’s the truth. Now, wouldn’t it be possible to discuss the odds of winning even if we fight the devil?

If I use everything I have, including Yonginhwa and Durandal, wouldn’t the odds of winning be around 40%?

If you successfully reach the level of divinity… The probability of winning increases exponentially.

“Then….”

I don’t know how powerful the demon god is, but it’s probably enough to give me hope.
