“Yes, I am Sierra, who shared memories from the time when I was the owner of the future space tower.”

‘ah.’

At those words, a lightbulb went off in my head.

‘Somehow his behavior seemed strange.’

Even if it was unbalanced, it was okay. Sierra’s movements were not just skillful but also came across as if her body was not used to it at all.

‘Is it because of the skills included in the future memories?’

If you substitute that explanation, you can understand. Even though the complete self did not enter, it cannot be that there is no effect on the memory.

Although he hid it from others, I understood why he looked awkward when he saw me.

[…Was it really necessary to do that?]

Not everything was resolved. I tilted my head slightly after swallowing the tea.

“What are you talking about?”

[The Lord of the Tower of Space is under the constraints of the tower. I wonder if it wouldn’t be burdensome to create a situation like this in that state.]

Tower restrictions. The reason why the tower owners are in seclusion and cannot function properly.

There is not a single top player who can be active at the forefront right now.

The Tower of Knowledge, Ariel, had fewer restrictions so I was able to meet her.

But I haven’t even met the other four. The tower of growth and observation, coordination and space.

That’s partly because I have a tendency to push myself too hard to lay the foundation for my own growth, but it’s also because the restrictions have been applied quite strongly from the beginning.

“Rather, he says that because the situation is like now, the burden is less…

Sierra, who was watching me, muttered while touching the ends of her hair.

“Inside the Tower of Growth. The entities you meet are not your own or a clone that shares your consciousness, but just copies. In the end, since you are ‘Sierra’, you are subject to restrictions, but compared to your own, the restrictions are minimal.”

[Aha… So that’s how you bypassed the restrictions]

“Yes. It’s not required, but I like it like insurance.”

[insurance?]

“I was given a memory of a time when the Savior did not appear.“

Sierra lifted her head. My image was reflected in her dark eyes. A complex look crossed her face.

“If it goes according to the plan made at that time, you should hear the situation at the Tower of Knowledge, but I am the insurance in case that fails.“

In short, it means that in case you fail to enter the Tower of Knowledge, it is an insurance policy to tell the story even if it is a year late.

[Don’t worry about that. I entered the Tower of Omniscience safely and met Ariel.]

“… Thank goodness. But there are other reasons as well.”

[What is that?]

As I tilted my head, Sierra lowered her gaze and touched my head.

“The future me has the skills and information to handle the power of space. I plan to pass this on to the Savior. ”

[oh]

My face brightened at those words.

The power of space. I’m pretty good at handling it now, but it was difficult to handle at first, and it’s still difficult to handle now.

‘It would be much better to learn from someone who has power.’

I received a book on spatial magic from the Vice President and received some instruction, but non-magical powers are different.

“If possible, I would have helped you with the combat part too… ”

Sierra, whose words were trailing off, glanced at me. From head to toe. For a moment, our gazes fell.

“That doesn’t seem like it would be of much help.”

[No, just interacting with someone as capable as Sierra is a great help.]

“… Ahem. Thank you for saying so. ”

Sierra’s awkwardly stiff face relaxed a little. The sword-like momentum she had been holding softened slightly.

“… … .”

It hardened again. The momentum was building up. I didn’t think it came out of nowhere. The sound that flew into her head and its contents were also perceived by me.

Not only that, countless numbers of people were observed flocking in from beyond the walls.

“… I’m sorry to say this while you still haven’t had a chance to rest, but I think you should prepare for battle.”

[I’m sorry. This is what I came here for.]

Sierra, who had risen to her feet, grabbed the scabbard that was placed beside her.

I nodded and got up from my seat.

.

.

.

The cadets were unable to finish unpacking their luggage and climbed up the crooked wall.

“… The more I look at it, the more dizzy I get.”

Yeonhwa, standing next to me, spoke with narrowed eyes.

The direction in which the cadets, who had swallowed their saliva and tension with difficulty, were looking was the same. The sight they saw would also be similar.

A dull and messy land. Traces of battle are piled up by the hundreds and thousands, creating a bumpy surface, and uncollected corpses are strewn about.

The sky is equally ominous. The dull purple sky is distorted here and there as if swirling.

This is a visualization of high-concentration magical power mixing and dispersing.

[… … ]

Today is like that.

As time passes, the color of the sky and the phenomena will change.

Suddenly, the ground and the air begin to twist, and magical powers that have been condensed into magic stones beyond visualization pour down like hail.

The devil.

At that time, there was no choice but to call it that. It was such an ominous and dangerous place.

The reason is not simply that the sky changes color, the ground moves as if breathing, and unidentified hail falls.

-Kiririk…

A superman drew the bowstring. Even though he didn’t pull the string, the energy and uniqueness condensed in the arrow burst out.

The wizard raised his staff, summoning his magical power. Kukukung! The ground beneath the castle walls shook, and the spirits who had been lying down stood up with difficulty.

A dark color spread out like waves crashing between the sky and the ground.

It’s not a real wave. Waves can come out of nowhere, but it’s a swarm of monsters that come at you like a wave.

The distance narrowed. Before they knew it, the sharp-eyed superhumans had come close enough to distinguish the monster’s ferocious features.

“Ah, that tripod bastard is back again. That shit can’t be eradicated either. ”

“I heard the nuance, it’s that kid. Be careful not to cut off your leg this time.”

“Don’t pay tribute with a meal like that.”

The front-line supermen who were accustomed to that sight made expressions as if they were fed up with it.

“… Wow… ”

The unfamiliar cadets gaped blankly.

Even though they knew it was a fake, some of them shivered at the sticky, hot, vivid feeling of it clinging to their skin.

-First wave! Get ready!

A ringing in my head. The protests were pushed to the limit, and the rituals were entangled.

-percussion!

Indiscriminate attacks poured in, accompanied by a signal.

The first arrows shot up and blasted away the flying monsters.

The magic that had been stuck in the ground exploded one after another, creating huge holes in the dense group of monsters.

Occasionally, firearms and shells of a period that are rarely seen in modern times would pour out.

The hit rate was meaningless. Because it was so packed, no matter where it was placed, it would hit the monster.

– Collision! Prepare to respond!

That also meant that no matter how many monsters you reduce, there will always be many monsters coming.

“Whew… This time, a lot of people died. I guess it’s less of a burden.”

Someone muttered while wiping their forehead. I don’t know if it’s true, but judging from the responses from those around me, it seems to be true.

‘I guess so.’

I stroked the fireplace and observed various parts of the castle walls.

The faces of the cadets, some reddening as if they were unfamiliar, and others turning pale, were observed.

But there was never a case where it was completely frozen.

Shoot long-range weapons and magic, and if that doesn’t work, kill monsters near the wall by striking them with a spear.

Monsters that are not easy to kill will have several cadets attached to them. Some will attract attention, and a cadet who takes advantage of an opening will take their life in one fell swoop.

The head of the 5th tier monster flew into the air in an instant. The eyes of the superhumans who had been waiting for a moment to help widened.

“What? You’re not that good at handling a sword?”

“Unique ability How far has it grown… Crazy. Did you just see the sword split?”

By the time you reach the second year of high school, you will have the skills to play as an active player in Hyundai.

Above all, this is a time in the past when development was less advanced. Although experience is greatly lacking, most of the technology itself is superior to the current one.

-Whoooosh…

For a moment, a spark flew. A small sound rang out. That was all, but everyone’s eyes were instantly drawn to it.

A spark fell on the head of a monster trying to climb the wall.

-Whooow!

The sparks exploded. The monsters that touched the sparks were completely burned before they could even squirm. The fire spread to the monsters gathered nearby and spread.

It didn’t take long for the horde of friendly monsters to sweep away the majority.

In an instant, more monsters were burned to death than had been captured by artillery fire so far.

“Fear.”

Someone muttered with his mouth wide open. He was not a cadet. He was a realized superhuman. He was a person from the past, but he knew about the cowardice.

“Ohhh… ”

The lotus opened its mouth. Hwaruk… Drops of fire fell from the red-hot sword blade down the castle wall.

“This is seriously awesome… ”

The sword was twisted. The gentle flame twisted and expanded in size. The monster engulfed in flames died. Yeonhwa’s eyes sparkled.

“It’s incredibly easy to operate, and it’s also incredibly less burdensome… It’s convenient because you can use the fireball, and it stores a lot of magic power… What the heck is this? Isn’t it much better than the Bonghwa Sword? ”

[Hehehe]

I tried to calm my emotions down by saying that I was in the middle of a fight, but the corners of my mouth twitched involuntarily at the continuous shower of compliments.

“Really. Wow~ When I actually used it in real life, it felt much better.“

Baek A-rin is also full of praise. While a fearful fire was raging on one side of the battlefield, a sea of destruction was pouring down on the other side.

The Sipper window was opened at the foot of the wall.

The monster hit by the tidal wave bursts and is swallowed, swept away by the internal vortex and torn to pieces.

Sometimes, monsters that come into contact with the cold will freeze without even being able to react, and will be torn apart by even the slightest impact.

As the fire and tidal wave continued to play, more than half of the monsters were already cleared out.

I turned my head slightly as I observed the superhumans with astonished expressions.

Then, Sierra, who was holding the handle of her sword and surveying the battlefield, turned her gaze towards me.

[This attack was easily stopped]

“Yes, that’s right.”

Sierra nodded obediently.

“The cadets’ power exceeded my and the command’s expectations. With this level of power, we should be able to easily block several attacks of this level. ”

[If this kind of attack is repeated, it will become a problem, right?]

“… Yes.”

This time, too, he nods obediently.

“This is a battlefield, and a demonic realm. The battle continues without pause. Above all, it is said that you are isolated by the dungeon… So you have to solve the problem of supplies on your own and hold out here.”

[hmm]

At those words, I took a quick look at the battlefield.

There is little damage.

At the root of it all was the presence of Yeonhwa and Baek Arin, powerful people who were slaughtering all the monsters before any damage was done.

There was another reason.

The existence of a wall that, despite its poor materials and miserable state of maintenance, is helped to maintain the front line by the application of excellent magic.

Also, there is a commander who primarily blocks the approach of monsters under the castle walls…

[hmm…]

I glanced at the surrounding veins and soil.

… It’s miserable. The veins are overflowing with magical power, but they are twisted and distorted due to the influence of the dungeon rampage, making them difficult to use.

The soil is in a similar situation. It has abundant horsepower, but in other words, its purity is poor. The soil itself is polluted and difficult to use.

It is a level that is difficult to solve even with the unique abilities of the growth series.

‘Here, feeding, housing, and clothing this person, and enduring the endless onslaught of monsters while waiting for the quarantine to be lifted…’

it’s tough.

No matter how great the magic is, the walls will collapse without maintenance, and the commander’s meat shield will eventually reach its limit.

The material may run out faster than that.

The cadets brought personal supplies, but only as much as was provided. It was not enough to eat and play for a long period of time.

This situation is usually called a crisis because there is no satisfactory solution.

-Phew…

But not for me.

I took a deep breath. The air was rushing into my lungs. An unpleasant sensation was mixed in. I couldn’t help it because I was in a battlefield.

A more fundamental sense than that. The magic that is woven into a single breath, and the protection of growth that helps the body.

‘I have to grow and advance from here.’

I raised both hands.

The wall… the ground below it shook.

‘Homogenization.’

-Kwagagak!

In the center of the battlefield, countless thorns rose from the ground between the sea of fear. The monsters impaled on the thorns screamed, and most of them died.

“Huh?”

He put his hand down. Gulp! The mortal monster twitched, grabbed the thorn that had pierced its body, and twisted away.

The thorns scattered and the monsters that had become commanders turned around.

Compared to other commanders, these commanders had a much clearer momentum. The eyes of those who had been blinking gradually gathered in one place.

“…Ha-Yul, is this okay?”

Baek A-rin blinked and turned her head to ask.

[It’s okay. The meeting schedule has been set since the entrance.]

The schedule for the Three Generations Family Meeting has also been set. It will be held shortly after the end of this year’s entrance exam, around the time of the first semester break.

Before, I asked them to be careful because the schedule wasn’t set yet, but now it doesn’t matter because they’ll be caught soon.

‘Even if that’s not the case, I don’t want to miss out on the opportunity to grow while being cautious.’

This is a time when the growth rate, which is already high, is rising even more. If you don’t train here, when are you going to do it?

I nodded and rolled my feet.

The manifestation of Taesan through homogenization.

The ground shook, and the commanders who had been stockpiling rose to their feet.
