12th Floor, 13th Floor

“I’m putting all my bonus stats into Strength!”

Defense will naturally increase as I… *hustle and bustle* and work hard, and I have an unnecessarily excessive amount of Divinity right now. Of course, Divinity will become very important later, but it’s not very useful yet.

Why not just learn magic and spam it?

You can’t learn regular attack magic with Divinity.

It’s like someone who uses Mana suddenly not being able to use Demonic Divine Art.

Except for using it through items or equipment skills, you can’t use it even if you learn it.

Of course, there are attack skills like Holy Arrow that use Divinity, but if you don’t develop it, the power won’t come out, and it’s a waste of money to learn skills that you won’t use later anyway.

Therefore, I invest all 21 bonus stats into Strength.

**Strength: 93.6 → 135.6**

Now I have enough Strength to act like an Awakened One.

– Her Strength is amazing. – A scammer… – It’s amazing how this feels natural. Isn’t this a realm that some people can only dream of? lol – I’m speechless. Over 100 Strength…? On the 11th floor?

“I’ll clear the 12th floor in… 10 seconds. Please wait a moment!”

– 10 seconds? – Isn’t that a place where you can be trapped for years? – Could she be…?

[The trial begins. The appropriate number of people is 4.]

“Start it alone.”

The trial on the 12th floor is simple. Just break through the maze and it’s over.

[The trial begins] My body is moved into a dark maze with a sense of levitation.

And at the same time as the trial begins,

“Full Charge Overspear!!!”

I slam the skill into the wall on the right side of the starting point.

A special skill contained in Dojester’s… I mean, Diana’s Spear.

**<Full Charge Overspear>** Stops movement for 5 seconds to gather Strength, then can thrust once with up to 2x Strength. Cooldown: 1 hour.

I put Strength in my thighs, point the spear at the right wall, and run. I gather all the Strength in my body and stick the spear into the wall.

Boom!! With a loud roar, the wall is destroyed, and through the scattering dust, I can see the final boss, the Minotaur, running in anger.

– ??? – Wait, she really breaks the wall? – Wow… this is something you can’t do even if you know it… – How much Strength does she have?

Kuworrrrrrrrr!!!!

It’s an elite Minotaur, 1.5 times bigger than the one I caught with Yun Seong-gi on the 8th floor, armed with armor and a giant axe.

I lightly dodge his axe, dig inside, and stab him with the spear, piercing the Minotaur’s chest in one shot.

The terrifying boss monster, who had a high probability of taking someone to the afterlife as a companion when a 4-person party struggled to break through the maze and reach the destination, falls helplessly.

[The trial has been cleared. Clear time 16 seconds. The reward is increased for solo play.]

The 12th floor is a place where reward grades are divided according to time. Therefore, even if the maze terrain changes slightly, the difficulty, starting point, and destination do not change.

And the destination is always reached by breaking the right wall from the starting point.

You might think of this as cheating, but it’s as if the Tower has allowed it, saying, “If you have enough Strength to break this wall, you don’t have to *slave away* here.”

“I’ll just take this reward and go home for a while.”

– Uh… this is difficult. – Is Do-hee trapped in the maze? – Isn’t this really hacking? – 19 seconds is an S-class reward, and if you add solo play, is it SS again? – I want to climb like that too…

[Please select an SS-class reward]

“Jackpot…”

Yeah, shouldn’t there be trials that you can *slack off* on like this sometimes?

From the 12th floor onwards, except for special floors, there is no concept for rewards. Just really random rewards that make you think, “They give you stuff like this?”

Traits, skills, secret books, equipment, elixirs, etc., all kinds of strange things come out without discrimination.

Of course, things that don’t fit too well don’t come out. Martial arts traits like Heavenly Martial Body, which are useless to Mana users, don’t come out. Sometimes strange things come out, but those are traded in the form of skill books, secret books, or weapons. At least a minimum safety device is guaranteed.

“Okay!! What will it be!!!”

Three cards floating in the sky. I’m always most excited when receiving rewards.

– Honestly, it’s about time she got unlucky – Please be breast milk – Press it quickly – ? – Press it, you *b*tch! – Show us!

As I wait slightly in the air, the viewers get impatient.

“Yes! I’m pressing it!!”

Click click! I flip all three at once.

‘What will it be…?’

OTNXSU9XcTFURXdtd0tweHpoait4aFEyU2FJK1A1ZEJVc3I5VE1KeE9JaHF3T2gzcWZ0RENHV2FETmt1eVdtQg [Ding~]

[SS-Class Marksman] Proficiency with bows is greatly increased, especially the speed of reloading.

“Eh… this isn’t great.”

Next card.

[Additional Bonus Stat: 5]

“This is… insurance. Not bad. It’s good to have things like this sometimes.”

A choice called insurance. If the other choices are meaningless or trash, this is better than the others. So, bonus stats or skill enhancement tickets are usually called insurance.

And the last card is…

[SS-Class Nutritious Breast Milk] You will have a constitution that produces a lot of breast milk. A child raised on breast milk from a woman with this trait will grow up very healthy and strong.

“……Huh!”

‘What is this…’

I’m so dumbfounded that I let out a chuckle and read it again. No matter how I look at it, it’s a perverted trait.

– lololol – Oh? It’s real breast milk!!!! – Aren’t we used to this by now? – The Tower managers must enjoy sexual harassment – Do-hee, but doesn’t that look good to me? – Do-hee, you should make money by selling breast milk – If you sell breast milk, you’ll make a fortune, right? The child’s parents would buy it at a high price?

“Eh… still, that’s a bit… I mean, I did have a relationship, but I’m not pregnant… it’s weird to have breast milk, right? I might need number 1 later, but if I pick things like that one by one, it’ll be neither here nor there. I’ll just take the bonus stats.”

I got 5 bonus stats as an SS-class clear reward, and another 5 as an additional selection reward.

Bonus Stats: 10

“I’ll just put this into Strength too.”

**Strength: 135.6 → 155.6**

I put all my stats into Strength and leave the Tower for a while. The outfit was quite embarrassing, but it was better than being naked, and I’m used to this kind of attention now.

I quickly run home and turn on the computer before the reporters swarm me.

“Phew… I’ll do a little shopping!”

First, I withdraw the money sponsored by Pantheon TV and check the balance.

[Remaining balance in Tower Bank: 1,154,454,500 won]

‘1.1 billion? It’s not that much.’

No matter how much money I make from being sexually harassed, there’s a limit to it.

Originally, humans are animals of adaptation, so at first, they would give a lot of donations while their dopamine was flowing as they watched me being r*ped, but if they kept watching, they would get used to it and get bored.

Of course, it’s too early to say that they’re bored, but it’s definitely growing slower than before.

Still, this is something to be grateful for.

“Thank you, everyone. I’m going to spend all this money now!”

– You’re going to spend it all? – She’s going to reinvest it all? lol – She’s really a Tower addict – It’s really amazing that she transparently reveals her bank balance – Do-hee, aren’t you going to pay off your debt?

“I’ll pay off my debt… when I have a little more money later!”

I log into the Hunter Market after a long time.

Next to it, I open the Growth Research Board in my fan cafe and compare prices.

“Thank you to the person who posted this. Um… Do-eat-me-out, right? I’ll use it well.”

– She’s going to use Do-eat-me-out well… – Change your nickname lol – Isn’t your dream to be eaten out? – But why are you suddenly shopping?

“Right now, I can just force my way through. But from the 15th floor onwards, it might be a little difficult to do it alone. I’ll buy it now, and when I go over the 15th floor, I’ll come back and reorganize and go!”

On the 15th floor, one more new item slot that opens every 5 floors will open.

Not only that, but there are also many elixirs that I can’t eat because of stat restrictions if I don’t eat them now. I have to eat these quickly whenever I have money.

After about an hour of shopping, I run back to the Tower without warning.

I eat a *kimbap* that I bought inside the Tower for a quick meal, and immediately challenge the 13th floor without delay.

“I’m going.”

Whoosh!

[The trial of the 13th floor begins]

Again, I’m alone.

I feel a sense of levitation and open my eyes to a new sensation.

What I see in front of me are lush trees. Weak rays of light enter as leaves flutter in the wind. And…

A shuriken flying right in front of me!

Shwook! I tilt my head to the side to dodge it and quickly wave the spear in the air.

Puhwak!! Something seems to be cut in the air, and blood splatters everywhere.

“It’s a *pain in the ass* from the start?”

With a dull sound, three people in black clothes fall from the sky as corpses.

The theme of the 13th floor trial is escape.

The mission is cleared if you escape to the target point from the assassin pursuers who are constantly chasing you.

“But there’s no need for that, right? I’ll just go and kill them all cleanly!”

In the dense forest, assassins are seen climbing trees and taking positions.

Black masks and black clothes.

Their metallic weapons reflect the light filtering through the leaves.

The vanguard died so pathetically that they don’t rush in, but circle around, looking for an opening.

“Tch, just like gnats.”

My patience isn’t enough to wait for them.

Bang!

I kick off the ground powerfully and leap.

Spotting an assassin scurrying through the trees, I stab my spear into his heart.

And at that moment,

I feel killing intent from all directions.

As if they were waiting for this moment, the assassins burst out all at once, throwing throwing stars, shurikens, daggers, poison needles, and all sorts of hidden weapons.

‘You’re the ones who got caught.’

I kick the assassin with the spear in his chest away, using the recoil to change direction in mid-air and instead attack them.

Narrowing the angle, I deflect or evade the incoming hidden weapons as much as possible, closing the space to engage the assassins.

Generally, once a person is in the air, it’s difficult to change direction or posture.

But I’m a little different.

I wield my spear freely in the air without hesitation, and with each flash of the spear, the assassins fall like leaves in the wind, accompanied by short death cries.

And using the falling corpses and the attacking assassins as footholds, I move smoothly in the air, like performing a circus act.

It was the same when I fought the deputy warden in the 11th floor prison, aerial movement and creating footholds in mid-air, a three-dimensional space battle, was my specialty.

One assassin per spear thrust.

They can’t retreat in the air,

And are hunted by me.

Thud…!

After a short aerial battle of about 10 seconds, I land safely on the ground.

And at the same time,

Thudududududuk!!!

The assassins’ corpses and severed flesh fall everywhere with blood.

‘Now, I’m starting to feel it coming back…’

My body, which had been feeling sluggish, finally feels like it’s doing its job.

Still, I must have overdone it a bit, as I clench my trembling hands tightly.

The past omnipotence, when I felt like I could do anything, comes to mind.

Although I was ambushed in my previous life due to a moment of carelessness, I will become even stronger in this life, enough to defeat any ambush.

“Haa… This isn’t the end here, right? I don’t know what kind of assassin group you are, but I’m going to destroy them all.”

The hidden ending on the 13th floor.

It ends when you find the assassins who tried to kill you and kill them all.

The true ending is to uncover the reason why you are being chased and clear your name, but that requires more brains, reasoning, eloquence, and the ability to instigate than strength, so it takes too long.

I’ll just cleanly watch the hidden ending and get out.

Judging by the fact that the assassins aren’t using any special martial arts or abilities, the difficulty of the basic trial is B-rank.

If I collect the solo play reward and the true ending reward, I can still get an S-rank reward.

Pshew!!

A red flare goes up nearby.

Probably a signal that the vanguard failed.

“Oh, I guess I can go there.”

As if I’ve found prey, I run out.
