path of choice (2)

You, too, inject what's left. Our Demon God is a gaseous poison, so without an antidote, we die.

Jinhyeok handed Andri a syringe that was half full of liquid.

Yes? Yes. Yes.

Andria received the syringe with her rabbit eyes open.

And carefully injected into his arm.

'Hey, this can't be... .'

It really is.

Until a while ago, the blood vessels started to itch little by little, but as soon as the medicine was injected, everything disappeared as if washed.

Andria looked at Jinhyuk with a keen eye.

' What the hell is he doing?'

At first, it was just terrifying.

Because he killed the agents of the gods with overwhelming power and even wiped out his followers.

However, as we talked, the fear gradually disappeared. Now, I'm rather curious.

Such a curiosity to want to know a little more about the other person.

Furthermore.

'It's not just about being strong.'

Andria had also heard rumors about the channel of choice.

None of those who entered this place came out alive.

I'm just going to die while wandering through so many choices.

However, this man broke through the gates in an instant, as if laughing at all of them.

It was so fast that I didn't even know how I got here.

A force of different ranks and an unshakable freedom in any situation. Last but not least, the ability to create results from the information you know.

It was hard to believe even looking at it all.

Andria's pupils trembled slightly.

'If this person... .'

Maybe he could really kill the headmaster and put an end to his hellish life.

What are you doing? Are you going?

Yes Yes!

Andria nodded quickly.

kukukung!

Immediately the third gate opened.

This room was quite simple compared to the previous ones.

A chair in the center and a black lever installed in front of it. Finally, a pipe was seen extending towards the lever.

[Whoa. The third gateway is .]

The smell of feet opened his mouth heavily.

There was no strength in his voice as his motivation had dropped considerably.

cheer up.

[what?]

You're the best smeller on the 5th floor... No, you're the manager. Don't be depressed and do your best to explain. This time, I'll pick you up after hearing hints.

Even the monsters in the tower are concerned.

Isn't this the direction the deceased should really pursue?

Jinhyuk nodded his head as if he was proud of himself.

Of course, from the smell of his feet to see it, it felt like all the billions were falling apart.

[good. The third gateway is 'self-sacrifice'. As you can see, one person sitting on the chair has to pull the lever to open the door to the next gate.]

You just have to sit down and pull the lever, right?

Andria fell in love with the simple conditions than expected.

[Before I rush to like you, remember one thing. The moment you pull the lever, flames will rise from the pipe right in front of you. The hand that pulls the lever is supposed to burn slowly.]

Due to the trait of the restraint ball on the chair, there is no way to avoid fire.

A door that opens only when you burn yourself.

It was a gateway that suited the theme of 'self-sacrifice'.

It can't be...

Andrea stuttered. It's because I instinctively realized that I couldn't get out of this easily.

right then

match! match! match!

Hey. Self-sacrifice! Cool words. So what's the hint?

Jinhyuk clapped his hands and trembled.

[Hint... You don't necessarily have to sacrifice yourself. If it were you, would you have noticed what I meant?]

So. If you don't want to get hurt, you can force someone else to sit there and pull the lever, right?

[That's it.]

Although it was said to be self-sacrifice on the surface, it is a structure in which you can escape without a single wound if you can force another person to sit.

startled

Andria's body trembled thinly.

If one of them had to sacrifice, it was too obvious who the target would be.

However, this time Jinhyuk sat down on the chair without hesitation.

I put on the restraint gear and put my hand on the lever.

[What? Were you willing to sacrifice yourself? I didn't see it that way, it's surprising.]

Yes?

What sacrifice all of a sudden?

I'm sorry, but Grimoire still has about 3 minutes to activate.

In other words.

It sounds like you can use 'skill'.

[Lv8 'Glacier Formation' is activated!]

The cold air from Jinhyuk's fingertips froze the entire pipe.

Chunkyung!

Let's pull the lever straight away.

Kukuku!

The door began to open with a violent vibration. Naturally, there was no fire that should have been burned out.

[ ] .]

The smell of feet, lost for words, solidified beyond the screen.

If someone you don't know sees this, you might mistake it for a still image, right?

Sin, I'm sorry.

Andria nodded towards the smell of her feet. And moved towards the next gate with a gunshot.

Jinhyuk also clicked his tongue with a sad expression.

You should have dealt with it while covering up your opponent a bit.

'Are you sure you'll meet me even if you meet?'

Still, don't be too frustrated or self-deprecating.

Just as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, it was foreordained that such an outcome would come.

There are a total of seven traps in the path of choice.

However, the fourth and fifth gates were also breached.

that's so stupid

Isn't there anything novel about this other than this? My heart is pounding and my back is sweating. I wish there was such a thing?

Jinhyuk did not hide his boredom.

It's good to clear quickly, but what?

Should I say I want to enjoy a little more stimulation?

The DNA of the deceased, which was drenched, has demanded Hell difficulty.

'This is a bad habit that needs to be fixed, but... .'

What can I do?

That's the instinct I've been building for 11 years.

[More novel than now... what do you mean? that, that... .]

Why. No way? It's strange. The passage designed by the 5th floor couldn't be this easy.

Jinhyuk tilted his head.

Then, as he remembered something, he clapped his hands.

Ah! Have you ever deliberately placed only easy ones in front to distract us?

[Yeah, yes. The sixth gateway is the masterpiece of the conversion of I, Valsetter.]

The smell of feet exclaimed urgently.

And three seconds later, even the sixth gate was opened. The shortest record so far.

" "

" "

[ ] .]

An awkward silence lingered.

But it was only for a short time.

[Shake. I don't.]

The smell of feet turned off the screen with profanity.

This is so... .

Jinhyeok scratched his head as if hesitantly.

'In the end, the manager escaped.'

Even if you look at the Tower of Trials, there will be no such thing.

So I was looking forward to it.

'If this video goes up, how many views will it record?'

The corners of Jinhyuk's lips went up.

I don't know, but for the time being, the 'Hall of Fame'

The owner of the top level seemed to have been decided.

right then

The imaginary barrier that built the 'path of choice' began to crumble.

kukukuku!

Finally, this game is about to start.

[You have entered the teacher's hideout.]

The landscape has completely changed.

A stone chamber full of bizarre fragments and symbols carved in blood.

In the center, the figure of the headmaster doing something with the corpse was seen.

Hey. I thought you became a teacher to give a sermon. Were you practicing anatomy?

Did you know that this was a science student?

Seeing that I was accepted into medical school, it seems that I studied hard when I was a student.

In a way, it might be the same with Cheon Yoosung.

"I can't that Valsetter was breached?"

Don't say anything to that friend too much. He seems like a timid friend than I thought.

Jinhyuk shrugged.

Indeed, what he said was true. That's what he meant when he said you should never be vigilant.

The teacher made a face that was quite surprised.

yea that's the way it is

Jin-hyeok, who was talking nonsense in prison, didn't even feel worthy of being considered an enemy.

Therefore, he had no doubts that he would be torn to pieces by the agents of the gods.

However.

That expectation was completely wrong.

By the way, Lancelot, no, I can't see Hossenveld.

"If it's that person, he left a while ago."

left... .

It kind of seemed like it.

Anyway, one glance is quick.

You're quick-witted? What does that mean?

"I would have known that I would die if I stayed here, so I noticed that and ran away first. Well, that's the story."

Khahaha! That's fun. Excessive self-awareness is the level of art.

The teacher blew up a madness.

Then, in an instant, the smile disappeared.

I don't know what you did, but you broke the rules of the tower and used your unique abilities and skills. To be honest, I was surprised. I didn't know that there could be a human who could defy absolute order.

I'm pretty good at it.

To be precise, it's not quite as good as it gets, but it's eye-opening.

It was said that hiding 30% of one's skills was a virtue, so I thought I would only do this with gold paint on my face.

I can't wait to see how far that confidence will last. And how desperately you might scream after a while.

The headmaster reached out to the table next to him.

A black jar was placed on the table.

Are you going to use a holy relic?

...!

At Jinhyuk's words, the teacher's hand stopped standing tall.

This time, it was clear that he was genuinely embarrassed.

Castle do you know about water?

Roughly.

I've made a collection by collecting all of the relics in the past, so I'd be lying if I said I didn't know.

However, I admit that it is difficult to collect them all.

Some of them were really hard to get enough to cause hair loss.

...that's a really amazing guy.

A tone mixed with surprise and astonishment.

Of course, that sentiment did not last long.

Because in the words that followed, there was a serious life mixed in.

But, if you know about relics, you must also know the power of relics.

The cursed relic to resurrect the Demon King had a huge mana in itself.

In particular, the 'pot that eats filth' in front of you is a sacred relic with a grade of 'blue' among the seven colors.

"I think the cooldown was really long. Are you going to use it to catch me?"

I don't think I'll ever meet someone more annoying than you in the future. Rather than stingy, I'll definitely use it when I can.

uhm.

That's hard to deny.

This guy is also surprisingly sharp.

right at that moment.

[The holy relic 'Filth-Eating Jar' is activated!]

An indescribable curse erupted from the depths of the jar.

A black wave that burns even the air.

The energy that overflowed like a wave rushed toward Jinhyuk in an instant.

KwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwa!

The ability to literally kill with an absolute judgment in an instant erection!

Jinhyuk quickly tried to spread the distance, but it wasn't the kind that could be avoided in the first place.

like that.

Honey!

The waves passed through Jinhyuk's chest.

crying

Black blood flowed from his mouth.

It's a terrible pain. Enough to make me lose my mind in an instant.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Gagging.

Because of the puncture of his lungs, his voice could not come out properly.

no!

Andria let out a sharp scream.

And.

Die for that arrogance. Human.

The headmaster also had a fishy smile on his face.

Because a human with a hole in his body had no choice but to die.

end with that.

Jinhyuk's consciousness was cut off. At the same time, the body collapsed.

[Due to the death of the caster, the 'Demon King's Curse' from the 'Corrupting Heart' disappears.]

A message displayed because the caster died.

And.

Unique abilities triggered by the death of the caster crossed.

[The caster is dead.]

[The condition has been met.]

[The unique ability 'Star Blessing' is activated!]

Beyond the blocked ceiling, from the night sky you can never see on the 5th floor.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

The light that contained the energy of the stars poured out.

At the same time.

pounding! pounding! pounding!

My heart stopped beating again.
