Chapter 233.1 - Tutorial 55th Floor (2)

Chapter 233.1 – Tutorial 55th Floor (2)

Editor: Tide

[You have cleared the 55th floor.]

I had cleared the 55th floor in the Hell’s Difficulty level.

[All abnormalities and injuries have been recovered]

[You have earned 10000 points as a clear reward]

[You have earned 10000 points as the first clear reward]

[There are many gods who responded positively towards you. You have earned 84,000 points]

[There are many gods who responded negatively towards you. 11,000 points will be deducted.]

[You have earned 3,300 points as compensation.]

“Hmm…”

[See, it’s real.]

The jewels were genuine, and as soon as I returned to the castle with them, Sung-Joo accepted them. It was an incredibly easy ending.

“If you don’t have any other plans, why don’t you take a few days off and stay at the castle?” said Sung-Joo.

As soon as Sung-Joo accepted the blue jewel, his face twisted with tears that wouldn’t stop pouring out.

The 55th floor’s mission was to find jewelry materials for treating the cursed spirit. And the old man, Sung-Joo, who repeatedly blew his nose in front of me, was the father of said spirit, the lord of this region.

Sung-Joo, who had begun to act unnecessarily clingy, kept saying that it was too late to go anywhere and that he wished to repay me in any way possible.

His attitude was abnormal and made me increasingly exasperated. His eagerness to keep me at the castle was certainly questionable.

“Fine, I won’t go anywhere.” I’d given up.

With my compliance, Sung-Joo was thrilled enough to do a somersault.

He really was a burden.

It was late today, and I was tired of getting jewelry, so I told Sung-Joo that we’d talk again tomorrow.

I was led to the room by a servant of the lord.

It was only after the servant left that I escaped, to explore the castle.

In the past, I’d always went straight to the dungeon, so I never had time to look around the castle properly.

Along the spacious corridor were various artworks including paintings and sculptures.

Even in the evening, bright lights shone throughout the hall, so there was no shortage of exhibits.

One could easily tell how luxurious the castle was just by looking at the exotic, textured carpet and high ceilings.

But what caught my eye more than that was the night view.

The castle was home to countless buildings reminiscent of skyscrapers on Earth, each of which was decorated with bright lights and decorations.

The scenery from the top of such tall buildings was gorgeous. Standing atop the tallest tower in Seongju, one could see the entirety of downtown.

I opened the window, stuck my head out, and looked down. I could see that this building was only about 20 stories high.

If we can develop science and magic together, the result could be similar to modern cities like this.

I’ve seen many wonderful panoramas while clearing stages, but the problem was that I was never able to appreciate it properly.

I’m a little disappointed to think that I’ve been too focused on clearing floors and ignored these wonderful sights.

“Where is the bathroom?” I asked.

“Do you need guidance?” a servant gently responded.

“No… Never mind.”

I refused the servant and began to look around the room once more. The room was so humongous that just calling it a room didn’t do it justice. It would take some time to look around the room.

I walked around, confirming the location of the bathroom and the kitchen, and went to lie down on the huge, soft bed.

When I did so, the strength in my body drained away.

Soon after, I felt a sense of refreshment, and it was as if my head suddenly cleared up.

“Ahbooboo. It’s magic, isn’t it?”

[Yes, it’s all on the bed. They’re too clever, actually managing to fit magic in a bed. It’s great.]

I can’t believe they have a magic bed to relieve a user. It was quite an unexpected luxury. I don’t think they’d sell this kind of bed in the in-game store, so couldn’t I just steal one of these?

As I was thinking, Seregia, who had been quiet, called out to me.

[Warrior.]

“Yes?”

I often talked to Ahbooboobu or KiriKiri, but Seregia never spoke to me first, so I answered immediately.

[Won’t you go to the next location? The portal has already been created.] Seregia nagged.

I put the armor I was wearing in my inventory and changed into more comfortable clothes.

The spirit sword, which is usually at my waist, was also pushed to the edge of the bed.

“I’m going to get some rest.”

[What?]

I’ve already cleared the 55th-floor, and I’m thinking of taking a few days off here. I really needed a break, but I’m still concerned about Kirikiri’s words.

And if I’m going to rest, I want to rest in a lively place like this, not in a solitary waiting room.

I heard that there would be some servants who would come to take care of me tomorrow morning.

I want to learn a little more about this place, which has high standards of living and uses technical skills, like magic.

Challengers who have cleared the tutorial are moving to Earth one by one. It was inevitable that magic would spread to Earth through challengers.

That’s what I explained to Seregia.

[Okay.] Seregia replied in a stiff tone.

After Ahbooboo’s blade repair plan failed, it became harder to see him as the person who once monopolized the main position in his party.

I laid in bed, rubbing my chin while thinking.

Come to think of it, I’d often told myself I wanted to know more about cultures on different floors. I’d often thought I should spend more time at each level, appreciating their unique culture. But I’d never actually been interested in their culture. It was just an excuse to take a break, as I was obsessively pushing myself.

For the first time, I felt a genuine interest in the culture of this floor. I was curious and asked Kim Min-hyuk to collect more information if he could. Above all, I felt that I really needed a break.

Heading on to the next floor immediately didn’t seem like the right step in this case.
