    Even if it were the Demon King’s army, it was not particularly strong.

    In the process of entering the castle gate, the monsters on guard attacked.

    The gargoyle statue decorated on the wall suddenly spread its wings and tried to attack. The two giants guarding the door tried to hit the man with a club made from a giant tree.

    However, they did not make me feel particularly dangerous. I said everything because it was at a level that could be sorted out between Anna and Alina.

    “It’s easy.”

    Rachel muttered as she burst out without even looking at the snake-shaped monster sticking out from the hallway wall.

    “I was quite nervous because I heard it was the Demon Castle… . This makes it much less difficult than most monster dens.”

    “Although I agree that it is not very difficult. Still, you must not let go of tension.”

    Caroline would definitely have hidden traps or powerful minions.

    You can tell just by looking at his gloomy personality. She is a bad bitch who rapes even her teacher, so there is no way she would be considerate of an intruder… .

    “It would be a good idea to always turn on the presence magic. You never know when the enemies might come rushing in like crazy.”

    “I know that. Is it basic common sense that you should mock your enemies, but not belittle them?”

    Even if you don’t say this to Rachel or Carly, they’ll understand. These two must have been to war as much as me in my previous life.

    “It’s the top?”

    We moved forward at an incredibly fast speed. After passing through a strange passage leading from the castle gate, a tower made of stone bricks stacked in layers appeared.

    In other words, the Devil’s Castle is shaped like a huge wall surrounding a long tower.

    ‘… ‘This is where I used to live.’

    The shape of the tower was shockingly familiar.

    This terrible, cold building, which seemed to mimic the shape of the magic tower I built when I was young, made me feel like it was mocking me, the challenger.

    ‘Are you provoking me…? .’

    I feel like I’m possessed by something. I didn’t say anything and slowly walked out to the tower.

    ‘If you look closely. It’s even creepier. This crazy bitch… .’

    This disgusting building, imitating a magic tower, recreates everything that existed when I lived there.

    The flowers in front for research purposes and ornamental purposes were planted without a single variety. The stone walls, which were obviously newly built and should have been clean, had minor scratches.

    Every single pebble that your feet step on reminds you of that time. At this point, it’s a serious obsession.

    “Erin?”

    “… Why are you like that?”

    “You seem to be looking very bad right now.”

    “Phew… . Yeah, I’m a little disturbed. This tower is similar to where I lived in my past life.”

    However, this does not mean that there is anything wrong with the battle.

    okay… . If it’s like this. I am willing and able to do it. There is absolutely no reason to hesitate. Only moving forward.

    “Huh? Then the structure is the same. I guess I know something like a shortcut!”

    “Anna, I’m sorry. There was nothing like that where I lived.”

    “Then should I fly and go to the top floor?”

    “Well. I don’t really recommend that. The automatic defense system will automatically attack you. You’ll be lucky if it doesn’t get torn to pieces.”

    There are no tricks in this magic tower. This is partly to prevent intruders, but it also means to climb the stairs one by one without using magic.

    Actually, if you look at it, it’s just a little thing. At that time, I thought I couldn’t learn magic without physical strength… .

    ‘If you think about it now, you’re such a piece of trash, right? ‘Well, there’s a guy with this kind of personality.’

    It’s as if the little pig from back then has now come back to me.

    What can I do? I’ll have to climb it first and see.

    “I know the structure. Let’s go and climb first.”

    I opened the tower door without hearing anyone’s answer. As expected, there was no locking device or anything. He is still an arrogant and confident disciple.

    Fortunately, it seems that the characteristic rotting mold smell was not implemented. It hasn’t been long since it was built, so a slightly refreshing smell fills my nose.

    “Hey, you don’t have to carry me?”

    “Yes. It can go up to this level.”

    In fact, there is no guarantee that it will rise. In the past, I was able to do this because my body was strong. Isn’t your body very soft and small now? It is sure to spread several times while walking.

    still… . I want to climb to my feet. It’s been a really long time since I came to my house.

    “Then let’s go.”

    So we walked and walked again. The total number of floors of the Magic Tower is approximately 67 floors. The 30th floor below was the dormitory where the students lived. The 30th to 40th floors had various convenience facilities and a kitchen.

    Above that, on the 10th floor, is a laboratory. And above that, the six floors are where guests stay.

    The top floor is where I stay. That means Caroline will be there.

    “For a place where an archmage lived, there isn’t a place that special.”

    “Wizards these days are strange. Because I enjoy strange gimmicks.”

    I’m sure I’ll look like an old guy if I say this, but… . These days, everything about wizards seems strange.

    Why on earth do we enjoy a gimmick that has no practical use, such as pressing a wall to reveal a hidden room? If you want to hide something. Wouldn’t it be much better to develop your own skills and install locking magic?

    In any case, if you do something like that without your skills, you can only sigh. As expected, this world… . Even if something goes wrong, it is definitely wrong.

    “Phew… .”

    I just walked up the stairs aimlessly, and before I knew it, I had reached the 10th floor. We haven’t encountered any enemies yet. There were no traps.

    ‘Is it really a replica of the Magic Tower?’

    If you’re going to just send us up like this without any traps or enemies. This is really stupid. At least you need to drain your stamina so it will be worth fighting.

    “Hmm? wait for a sec. Didn’t everyone hear something just now?”

    “What are you talking about?”

    “I heard a strange moaning sound from in front of me.”

    Kali’s judgment is always right. I completely believed those words and sent Iron Maiden flying forward.

    “Kkueeek!”

    “It really exists.”

    As expected, she was right. After sending Iron Maiden away, I heard some strange thing crying.

    I quickly ran forward. It took quite a while to climb because there were so many stairs.

    “Aaaah! What on earth is this?”

    “I flew with the intention of killing him. You’re alive… . Are you lucky?”

    The guy I met had some kind of strange monster clutching his arm. Your entire left arm wasn’t blown off? It’s sturdy.

    “Who are you?”

    “Kieek… . My, that’s what I’m going to say! You damn bastard! Why are you attacking me so damn hard!”

    “What, aren’t you the guy who lives here?”

    “That’s right, why!”

    It’s so fucking annoying. There is no other reason than to kill.

    “Give me a reason why I should save you.”

    “Kaaa! You damn bastard! okay! Kill it! Because we are all destined to die anyway!”

    He’s a very pessimistic person, isn’t he? Life only comes once.

    “The Demon King is unleashing his own magic to kill us all! This means that not only you but the entire Demon King’s army is destined to die in the end.”

    “What, they’re going to kill you too?”

    “Yes! You pudgy bastard!”

    What is he trying to achieve by killing his own subordinates? This is not even funny.

    I burst out laughing and punched the guy in the face with an Iron Maiden.

    “Kkeeoeook… !”

    “Say. What on earth is Caroline doing?”

    “I, I don’t know… . Damn it!”

    This keeps saying bullshit. Annoying… .

    I kept slamming Iron Maiden into his face. Although it is hard. Killing someone is not a big deal if you put your mind to it.

    “Kwaaak… .”

    “Do you feel like talking now?”

    “Keueuuu! okay! Just say it! You damn bastard. The Demon King is planning to create a new god on this earth. That’s why they say they need our souls!”

    God. It really seems like that’s what’s going to happen.

    ‘You can’t become a god with a soul like this…’ . Rather, it just becomes a monster. Isn’t that ignoring people’s ego too much? Caroline. You are a foolish disciple.’

    I stopped torturing. I feel a bit regretful about killing this guy.

    “Do you want to live?”

    “What… ?”

    “Do you want to live? I won’t kill you. If you follow my instructions.”

    It’s an obvious lie. Why do you save me? I’m thinking of just hitting the head first. Only a fool would not make a sincere promise to a monster.

    “Jo, okay… . You mean to negotiate? I will tell you about the Demon King’s weaknesses. Save me!”

    “No. You already know your weaknesses. Just shut up and give me directions.”

    “What… ?”

    The point of this statement is this.

    Just shut up and act like a meat shield.
