Tutorial 61st Floor(5) -Part II
“Shut up and listen to me . ”
The noisy area quickly became silent .
It didn’t matter that they were gods . They were behaving like chatty humans .
I had the power here .
“I’m here . ”
Let them listen to me .
“I can see this world and hear all the voices . ”
It was a declaration that had been delayed for a long time . I didn’t know that this moment would be this perfect . I thanked Lee Yeon-hee once again .
“My will is the will of this world, and my presence proves it . Now that I am here, this world will be my sanctuary . ”
I asked the gods, who kept their mouths shut, “You know what this means, don’t you?”
But no one answered because I didn’t allow it .
“Get the hell out of my house, you pigs . ”
I forced teleportation . Even the gods from different universes could not disobey the order .
Here, my will was the truth and the law .
The gods were lifted and teleported to where they were initially supposed to be . Now the ones left behind were not 2,000 gods but 2,000 apostles .
The connection with the gods was forcibly torn apart, and the apostles began to go crazy . There was one who cried out in pain, one who was about to go mad for power, and one who ran for me . They were only moths rushing towards death .
Forced to lose the most precious thing of life, they began to run in different directions, searching for their only remaining light: death .
Of course, I didn’t want them to be freed through suicide .
The shadows of the apostles running wild shook .
The shadows moved independently as if they were living creatures .
The shadows, which rose with an appearance of mud, began to devour the apostles .
They broke out of their lock and cut off the arms and legs of their own master .
One cut off the tongue of an apostle trying to chant a spell and then cut a hole in their Adam’s apple .
Broken joints and castrated vital points . Blood and flesh splattered everywhere . But no screams were heard .
“Ahhhhhh!”
Who was the one who just screamed?
When I turned my head, I noticed that it came from the God of Sacrifice’s apostle . Oh, he must have been hit when the gods were summoned back . He was more relaxed than the others, so he was resisting the shadows .
I spoke while putting some more shadows on him, “Don’t worry too much . I’m not gonna kill you . ”
Why would I kill them? All of them were my precious assets . They were of great use .
Firstly, they could be used to negotiate with the gods who came here .
How far can I tear them apart in exchange for the power of apostles and gods left in their bodies?
Just the thought satisfied me .
“Oh, of course, if your god refuses to make a deal, the story will be different . But to be honest, either instance works for me . ”
Soon all the apostles sank into the shadows .
When all were swallowed up, I checked the strength, and a satisfied smile rose on my face . This was a fantastic power . The power that the gods had left behind in their apostles without being able to retrieve them .
[It’s not dangerous, is it?] asked Hochi . [Can’t you tell me that in advance? I wouldn’t have been worried . ]
Hochi was still grumpy .
Yong-yong was dismantling his barriers . Although they were barriers that could be recalled at once if prepared in advance, dismantling them was not that easy . It’d take some time .
I approached Lee Yeon-hee, who was lying down . There was still something left to talk about .
“Get up . ”
Lee Yeon-hee’s body, which had been half-dead, recovered quickly, and she jumped up .
Lee Yeon-hee looked at herself in a bewildered manner and opened her mouth .
“Surrender . ”
Quick judgment . Quick choice .
She was a disciple whom I had taught a lot . A portal appeared at her feet, with the message .
╔═══════════════╗
[Failed to clear the stage . ]
╚═══════════════╝
[Before we move to the residential area, we’ll finish talking, Lee Yeon-hee . ]
The portal that appeared under her feet moved far away . Again, she put on a look of bewilderment .
“You’re done for . I adjusted the message and the portal . ”
That was what happened when I waited for a capable disciple but didn’t want to let her die . I gave her an offer .
“You have three options . ”
* * *
While listening to me, Lee Yeon-hee’s eyes widened, and she asked, “If you could send me up, you would still clear the Tutorial . ”
“Huh, no . ”
“Yes, I’m sure you can . You would have told me earlier . ”
Lee Yeon-hee looked at me with her eyes dripping with tears .
Of course, I knew there was such a method, but there were chances that I couldn’t do it .
“What kind of options are those? Please tell me . ”
She looked quite calm, unlike her earlier stressed appearance . She was still trembling, but she looked better .
“You didn’t kill me, and you talked about an offer . At least, I won’t die . You’ve been locked up on the 60th floor for a long time, but you won’t kill me, right?”
Once you’ve survived, you’d have finished the hardest part .
She was right .
I responded positively to her question .
Lee Yeon-hee was greatly relieved that she had confirmed her safety .
“There are three options . One is waiting for a new challenger on the 60th floor as I did, but I don’t recommend it . The second is to get out of the 60th floor through negotiations with the gods . I don’t recommend this either . ”
It was too dangerous to recommend to Lee Yeon-hee . Above all, there was no reason for the gods to do so . The use of spying on me was gone . In the past, we could have come out with all gods’ consent in the Hundred Gods Temple, but it was hard as long as the Pantheon Gods also intervened .
The thoughts of 10,100 beings were bound to be different .
“The last offer is to be my apostle . ”
Lee Yeon-hee remained silent for a while .
It was a critical moment, so I decided to wait for a while .
After thinking about it, she asked in a monotonous tone . “If I refuse, you’ll kill me, right?”
“Yes . ”
Answering so naturally made me feel slightly guilty since she had asked me calmly .
[Really? Hello? Where’d your conscience go?] asked Ho Chi .
I didn’t know what to say . If Lee Yeon-hee didn’t become an apostle, the 60th and 61st floors were exposed to the gods . I’d have no choice but to kill her .
“I’ll do that . ”
I gave my power to the accepted apostle . There was no need to be formal . I made her an apostle .
“Is it done?”
“Yes . ”
“Now… what should I do? Do I just spend time on the 60th floor? Forever?”
“Go back for now . You remember my room, right? There are things I have left for you . What you need to do will be written there . You’ll be quite busy, so hurry up . ”
Lee Yeon-hee nodded .
Even after being able to get out of the Tutorial, I had no choice but to wait for her because my sanctuary, the 60th and 61st floors, remained . I needed someone to protect the place . So I waited for her .
“Mister . ”
“Uh, yes?”
“Nothing…”
Lee Yeon-hee seemed to have something to say, but she soon shut up .
She had a lot to say .
I also knew why I couldn’t talk right away . Later, when time had passed, there’d be a chance to speak again . Lee Yeon-hee climbed onto the portal .
I finally spoke to her without saying any greetings, “You’ve had a hard time . Good job, Yeon-Hee . ”
I didn’t know how comforting my words would be, but Lee Yeon-hee quietly nodded and moved to the 60th floor .
“It’s over . ”
“I know,” said Hochi, who had come to my side before I knew it .
It was over .
It’d been a long time .
When I came up to the 60th floor, I knew the wait would block my way .
I didn’t know it would be this long .
After entering the Tutorial, I’d been through all sorts of hardships .
But in fact, it wasn’t so painful .
I was rather excited and happy .
The only thing that always bothered me was the helplessness that came from waiting, and the loneliness that came from isolation . For each of these two things, I turned my gaze and avoided it each time I was confronted . I didn’t have the confidence to endure it or overcome it .
For me, the 60th floor forced me to face what I had always wanted to avoid .
In the end, we had reached this moment .
Now, A god could even compare me to a sword .
It was hard to call me a sword before .
I was an arrow back then .
I had already been shot and was flying .
I hoped to hit the target, but it was too far away .
I was an arrow that ran out of power, got blocked by a wall, and then splintered .
I was not perfect now .
The limits of my ability still existed .
My emotions still swayed them .
I didn’t have as mature a personality as I had strength .
My behavior was inconsistent .
If Hochi, Yong-Yong, and the others disappeared from my side right now, I might not withstand it and return to the past .
I’d make many mistakes in the past, but I was still not finished blundering .
But as I kept learning, I changed .
And when I looked back, I was sure I was getting better than before .
I was growing .
That was what was important .
That was how it happened, and we were finally over the threshold of the 61st floor .
“Are you going straight to Earth?”
“No . ”
Before going to Earth, there was a place to stop by .
“I have a friend to meet before I go out . I promised to grant your wish . ”
I stood on the portal . Hochi and Yong-yong also stood on top of the portal . The old man and the old lady couldn’t stand on it, so they put their fingers together .
The portal’s light brightened the view .
When the white-colored vision gradually began to regain color, I could see the green fields spread out under the blue sky and a rabbit smiling clearly .
“KiriKiri . ”
Tutorial 61st Floor(5) > Finished
(T/N: I wanted to mention that previously, what had been translated as the Vaccination War/Pre-Vaccine War, was actually Hundred Gods Temple . A reader Kriellz pointed out that Hundred(백) Gods(신) Temple(신전), 신 should appear twice but it doesn’t . That was why I kept reading 백신전이 as “Vaccine” . Also, from what I made out, there are two kinds of gods: Hundred Gods Temple(ones that are in control of a certain Tutorial) and Pantheon gods(this will be explained in the future chaps) . I apologise for the inconvenience, and I’ll be correcting these terms in previous chaps . If there are any more changes, I’ll be sure to inform y’all . )
