The hall was instantly filled with commotion. A reaction as if they had just seen a ridiculous circus. The only difference is that no one laughs genuinely and happily.

There are two main reactions.

Those who are astonished as if they are seeing a monster, and those who constantly give interesting glances as if they are appraising a gem.

Naturally, the fairy Yuri Yuri, who played the role of test director, was the latter.

“Okay, okay? I picked this!”

“…”

Lucia shouted confidently, but the red-eyed fairy made no reply. Instead, he opened his mouth or stroked his chin.

‘What should I do?’

There were 99 other test supervisors and guardians of the floor besides her, but she was the one who had observed the climbers for a particularly long time.

It is a tower that has existed since time immemorial, but once it reaches the 77th floor, it is easy to remember because the number of people coming up is small and the view is special.

The person who ultimately fails the exam and settles down on the lower floor is a nobleman.

There were people who argued about the fairness of the exam, and even idiots who got into fights with other climbers and ended up dying after passing the test.

but,

Among all the idiotic actions shown in many ways, the behavior shown by Lucia seemed particularly idiotic.

Originally, this test was not structured so that one could draw the sword based on innate qualifications or qualities.

A subtle sensation that can be achieved through the handle. It was a kind of puzzle solving. This means that all you have to do is delicately move the handle or apply pressure, like opening a keyless lock.

It was right that only delicate people who do not miss any given element in any situation would pass the test.

Therefore, it is a test to filter out those who blindly used their power by focusing only on the words to select…

‘I can’t believe there’s such a strong and ignorant guy…’

A faint smile appeared on Yuri Yuri’s mouth.

It was not that I looked down on Lucia Prien because of her status as an examiner.

It’s just that I felt like I wanted to let them pass because they were so stupid and ignorant.

My heart pounded in anticipation of what that girl would show on the next floor.

I couldn’t control the laughter that came out.

‘What are you splitting?’

Lucia opened her eyes and glared at the glass. It wasn’t just a sword, but it looked like he was holding it like a rock, and it felt like his arm was going to explode.

‘So you’re saying it’s a pass or not?’

But I couldn’t lower my arms.

I felt it instinctively.

To be honest, I didn’t think Lucia would pass the test by ‘pulling out her sword out of a rock’.

However, I am determined to try something rather than just give up.

I can see several eyes looking this way. Many emotions were conveyed, including surprise, interest, and fighting spirit. It seemed like she had succeeded in controlling the atmosphere in the hall, so now all she had to do was appeal to John Man in front of her about her ‘specialness’.

‘how is it? ‘Am I a bit crazy?’

‘I am this amazing. huh? ‘You’ve never seen anything like this anywhere.’

‘Do you want to send it up? Do you think I’m going crazy because I want to upload it?’

It’s “. Isn’t this amazing? I never thought I’d be able to ‘pull’ a sword out of a rock and lift it!”

It must have been a snowball fight for a while when the fairy spoke first.

“Right? I chose it, right?”

“Hey! Lucia Prien definitely picked it!”

“Then I can go, right…”

“No. Who said you passed?”

Yuri Yuri politely interrupted Lucia. He stopped talking like an idiot, smiled softly, and gestured to Lucia.

He gently waved his palm downwards, as if he could put down a heavy rock.

Lucia frowned at the unwelcome answer, but followed her suggestion.

Kuuung-! There was a loud noise that seemed to shake all the insides, and an earthquake that shook the entire class, including the testing center.

The aftereffects are hard to even imagine with the weight of the rock hanging precariously on the tip of the sword. The rock was much heavier than its volume would estimate.

“…Ugh. You’re making people’s hearts flutter for no reason.”

Although she would have been happy with the miracle she had achieved, Lucia’s face was gloomy. I don’t have the honor to see Shiron and Seira. She tried to walk down the podium, feeling despondent.

“Wait a minute. But I didn’t say I didn’t pass.”

Yuri Yuri stopped Lucia. When Lucia turned around crookedly, this time there was a clear line in her mouth.

“Are you trying to play with words?”

“It’s because I want to give you one more chance.”

“Opportunity?”

“Yes! In other words, it’s a retest!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the hall was once again in a state of commotion. However, this time it was different from the previous excitement.

Previously, there was a lot of noise in the waiting seats waiting for their turn, but now there was a dizzying noise even in the areas where people who had passed the test were located.

“Sleep! Quiet!”

The supervisor fairy clapped her hands to calm the crowd.

Because she also knew the weight of the words she spoke.

“I know you are all very confused. You were really surprised that it was a retest, right?”

“…”

“But what? I’m the exam proctor, and I’m the one who decides who gets promoted to the top or not! If you have any complaints, go up to the top as soon as possible and become a supervisor!”

There was no idiot who answered the cheerful chatter. Lucia, who had climbed all the way to the 77th floor, didn’t know it, but everyone except her group had painfully seen the consequences of offending the supervisor on the previous floor.

“So? What is the test?”

However, Lucia did not pay attention to the rigid atmosphere. Since it was natural for a prey to be pecked by a wild beast, there was no need for Lucia to be scared by Yuri Yuri.

“Yes, I know, I know. Are you saying that you are so impatient that you would pull up a rock?”

“…Okay.”

Although she was sarcastic in her angry tone, Lucia felt that she was genuinely impressed.

“Hmm, then which test is best… I’m really confused. If I leave a precedent of re-examination, my future self will be in trouble… But I want to send you up… But it won’t be fun if I send you up too easily…”

“…”

“Hmm, what would be better~”

The fairy, who was muttering to herself, soon brightened her eyes and raised her finger.

“Attention everyone!”

The fairy looked around the crowd with a playful face.

“The content of the exam will be changed urgently after this time!”

A creepy chill spread across the quiet seat.

“The name of the human who just lifted the rock is Lucia Prien!”

Why are you suddenly mentioning me and making such a fuss? Lucia opened her eyes and stared at the fairy with her mouth fluttering.

“Defeat Lucia Prien! Then you can go to the next floor!”

“…What?”

“You can attack them one-on-one, but you can also attack them as a team! Oh, of course, if you form a team, the entire team can go to the next floor, so please keep that in mind!”

“Hey! What kind of bullshit is that!”

Lucia was dumbfounded and snatched the fairy with one hand.

“Oh my! Oh my! Where are you touching now?!”

“I’ll kill you!”

“Didn’t you want to go up to the next floor? If you don’t like it, you can quit!”

Lucia’s hands tightened due to the continued provocation. However, Yuri Yuri did not care and just laughed.

Doesn’t it feel pain? Or maybe you are not afraid of death? Lucia felt a strange sense of déjà vu, but did not pay attention to the audience.

“Lucia. If you think it’s too much, you can wait until the next exam.”

Siron, who was watching the situation, opened his mouth. A mischievous smile appeared on Yuri Yuri’s lips as she realized that the two were in the same group.

“The next exam is in a month? And what if I change the content of the test at my discretion?”

“Then you can quit even then. Anyway, you can climb the tower by yourself.”

Siron did not break his aloof attitude despite the fairy’s sarcastic threats.

‘There are a lot of unusual people taking this test?’

Yuri Yuri glanced at Siron with glossy gaze. Then, I took out of my head the participation list that had been distributed before the test.

‘There were three people who got Platinum rank from the first floor… I thought it was only the Demon King’s daughter, but if I had known it would be like this, I should have made the test more fun.’

I also liked the death game where we had to kill each other until half of the characters remained.

It was okay to have a tournament that didn’t stop until everyone won 10 games in a row.

But this is a late regret. The problem was that she stuck to a simple method because she had a sense of mannerism and had a sense of respect for those who wanted to move up to the upper level as quickly as possible and be active.

Siron summoned dark red lightning clouds to keep the climbers in check.

“Or, I can kill you here and go up.”

“Ah, ahahaha!”

Yuri Yuri was giggling while being held in his grasp. Over the past tens of thousands of years, such stimulating days have been rare enough to count on one hand.

And, it was the first time that so many people who would not disappoint her expectations appeared at once.

“Not long ago, the squat wizard was like that too, so many interesting things are happening these days?”

“Lord, die!”

Cyclops swung his huge fist. He had failed the test earlier, and he must have been desperate for a reason to go up to the next floor, so he kept going despite being hit by lightning all over his body.

Siron dodged the attack by taking a step back, and then Kwasik! He pulled out the holy sword and cut the large body in half.

Cheolpudeok!

Black blood, full of demonic energy, poured onto the podium. Siron, with his holy sword dripping with blood hanging down, gazed at the fairy with a cold gaze.

“I killed one person, what happens if this happens?”

“…Wow.”

“It won’t be a failure.”

The fairy giggled but nodded with a face full of excitement.

As soon as the terrible smile distorted, the demons on the platform attacked.
