Episode 189 – Tricks that break the rules don’t work
#One
Originally, daemons were monsters designed to kill intruders.
Wherever they are, they continue to chase the player and hinder them from climbing.
As for the setting, yes, it must have been because of the rejection of the living and the apostle’s order.
But now, that setup is broken.
As soon as Manus saw him, he looked at the demons running away.
they have no intellect
To be precise, there is no intelligence advanced enough to carry out the operation.
‘By the way, why?’
Even if you come back down to the highest level, the demons will attack you.
In this world, demons continued to attack players just because they were alive.
It seemed that something was going wrong.
“I have about six hours left.”
For now, I have no choice but to keep chasing demons.
If this is Andrea’s ruse, I have no choice but to praise her this time.
Experience is something you can get by killing demons.
If there is no daemon, there is no reason to climb the tower.
His steps hurriedly followed the demon.
You should kill as many demons as possible and absorb the magic stones.
Not only herself, but also other children were in dire need of growth.
‘Can you stop Nogada? It’s not real.’
In any game, there was no system that prevented the user’s labor.
No, isn’t it common to recommend hard work and set the boss’ hurdles high?
But now, the daemon in the garden is trying to completely block the middle process.
If this is the case, you won’t be able to reach the power to catch the sentinel.
Is there no system to sanction irrationality?
Casting his magic, he thought of a countermeasure.
‘It’s not that there isn’t a way if I can check just one thing.’
Rather than chasing the demon, Manus chose a different path.
Using boost magic, he moved quickly and moved to the stairs leading to the next floor.
I could see the demons huddled up through the stairs.
That’s right, the daemons placed on the floor had the only place to go.
After grasping the situation, Manus quickly summoned the party members.
I blew mana into the communication orb and opened all channels.
“Everyone, can you hear me?”
“Yeah, what’s going on?”
“Gather on the stairs from the 29th floor to the 30th floor. They hunt sheep there.”
“Is the daemon going through the stairs?”
To Alano’s question, Manus replied ‘yes’.
We have a solution.
Andrea will fall for her tricks and provide more experience points to her comrades.
Manus was not one to stand still.
don’t make me regret
How dare you cheat like that?
A trick must be used within a framework, but this act was a clear violation of the rules.
In an RPG game, it was impossible to stop hunting.
“Then, let’s start first.”
All demons from the 20th to the 29th floor came up in a line.
Perhaps, as expected, this top would be the same.
So, I’m going to try to get as much experience as possible here.
All of these games were good, but there was no elixir that increased experience.
Because I had to do a very honest level up through pure Nogada.
Roaring-!
According to his will, a huge wall of fire was completed.
[Ignis – to Paris]
[Kiik! Key profit-!]
The demons rushing in were burned to death.
I don’t know if it was because of Andrea’s order, or because he just had a stupid intellect, but the demon spat out the magic stone without much resistance.
Continuing to cast his spell, Manus crossed his arms.
A number of manastones shimmering in the light fell.
What kind of expression would Andrea be making by now?
I was very curious about that.
Manus let out a small sigh.
He heard a voice calling his name from afar.
“Senior eh-!”
Should I just hit it right now?
Manus was seriously troubled.
Apostle.
Now that you can receive an attack five times, might it be worth a try?

“this… … These stupid things!”
Her mental health was not perfect to the extent that she lashed out at the plants she had grown.
Plants that stupidly fail to fight back and burn to death.
Those who had cherished it in their own way were burning up in an instant.
She realized that she had made a mistake.
I should have given you more specific orders.
Are you okay though?
Since they gathered in one place on their own feet, if they pushed it with quantity, it would deal a blow.
[My children, attack the enemy in front of you.]
Only then did the demons stop meaningless deaths.
I somehow counterattacked and started attacking the enemy.
Whoa… … . Andrea clutched her forehead and sighed.
Ever since I started gardening, my brain had never been so complicated.
The garden is a place made for him, where he must be obedient.
The garden thus created became a passive place.
‘I should have made it a little more active. Like Cantati.’
No, then there is no meaning to a place called a garden.
I have no choice but to somehow pull them up and kill them all at once.
Andrea knew the principle of their growth.
However, I couldn’t pass that principle on to the upper level.
‘It’s the 80th floor. I only need to bring them to the 80th floor.’
Originally, the waiting time at the top was shortened, so their growth would be slow.
Andrea waited for that time, brooding over the memories of the flowers that kept coming.
She was overlooking an important fact.
A skill you don’t even know about.
Why did the apostle have to wait on the 100th floor?
I forgot the most important thing.
#3
[Key profit!]
[Kieack!]
The cries of the plants flowed down the stairs.
Danny screamed in a confined space, giving him a headache.
It was too loud and bizarre to be called white noise.
The procession of endless demons was getting weaker and weaker.
Demons are weaker downstairs and stronger as they go up, so the story is that the ones upstairs are slowly being wiped out.
Cale spread his magic and opened his mouth.
“When will you come?”
“well. I think I should stay like this for another hour.”
“Kale, if it’s hard, can you change it?”
“No, it’s still worth doing.”
“however… … Aren’t there any patrols in the garden?”
I know.
Even after a long time, the patrol did not come out.
In the Labyrinth, there were signs that it would appear so often, but in the Garden, it did not appear at all.
Manus put forward a guess.
“Probably because this is a border area.”
“aha… … Then it would be nice to be able to hunt like this elsewhere.”
“It would be impossible. I don’t know what the apostle was thinking, but he must have shook hands.”
“Let’s quietly dig for magic stones. I heard that collecting small magic stones will be helpful?”
said Pearson.
Cale nodded and concocted the magic again.
First of all, the priority was to become strong enough to overcome difficulties.
two hours like that.
The long procession was finally over.
“Huh… … I thought I was dying.”
“You worked hard, Melanie.”
“I’ll have to change the shield again.”
“I will appraise you. Are you going to change it right away?”
Melanie and Guillermo are exhausted.
Occasionally Thrace and Manus took over the front line, but none were as solid and stable as the two of them.
Even that mighty Manus was sometimes missed.
That’s why the job of being a guardian was also an indispensable job.
“The two of them should get a lot of magic stones, right? what do we… … It’s because I only used magic while taking turns.”
“sympathy. Eat well and grow up.”
“That’s right, we need to have a strong front to be safe too.”
Everyone decided to give the magic stones to Melanie and Guillermo.
Of course, not all of them, and the rest of the staff left enough to grow enough.
“Oh, can we go up after resting?”
“that’s right. It takes some time to absorb, so I think I can absorb it from now on.”
“Then, let’s go in.”
Those who pressed the magic stone into the subspace entered the resting area.
From now on, it was a time of growth.
As if they had made a promise, the children absorbed all the magic stones they were given.
Manus also watched it and began absorbing it.
“Here, it belongs to you.”
[Kang!]
Of course, Albion’s share was also thrifty.
At this time, when everyone was quietly absorbing the manastone, the waves of demons still continued in the garden.
#4
When I opened my eyes, the garden was enveloped in silence.
As I breathed in, a huge mana wriggled.
definitely grew up
Manus rose from his seat.
‘Everyone is sleeping.’
Albion slowly opened his eyes and came down lightly under the bed.
As if it had noticed, the fluffy white dragon quietly followed it out of the resting area.
Manus looked out over the open garden.
He lowered his stance and stroked Albion’s head.
[purr… … .]
After absorbing the magic stone, somehow, it seemed to have grown in size.
Its forelimbs and hind limbs seemed to be stronger than those of a tiger, and its wings, although not yet used, were steadily growing.
If you grow up like this, you’ll be a great partner.
When he was petting the furry dragon, he felt a huge amount of mana.
A woman who has not yet been refined, but possesses pure and clear mana.
It was kale.
“… … Wow, Albion has grown a lot.”
“Why don’t you rest a little longer.”
“I came out for a while because there was no senior.”
“How about going up the tower?”
Cale gave a slightly surprised expression.
She soon met Albion’s eyes with a bashful smile.
Then he opened his mouth in a whisper.
“are you okay. Last time I was embarrassed and lost… … Not now.”
“The battle with the apostle this time may be more difficult.”
“I was prepared for that too. There seemed to be some things I was curious about here.”
“For example?”
“Something to do with my talent… … things like that.”
[Interference begins.]
[The direction of the world line shows signs of changing.]
Manus thought to himself, ‘I think the progress is too fast?’
Kale.
Because she wasn’t an ordinary commoner.
Realizing that was still a story in the distant future.
If she knew the truth now, she wouldn’t have the mental strength left to be strong.
Because it was such a shocking and heavy topic.
“You’d better just focus on climbing the tower for now.”
“all right.”
“I know. That your talent is not ordinary. and… … That there must be some secret.”
“… … .”
Cale looked at Manus with clear eyes.
Looking at her pale blue eyes, Manus continued.
“But now we are too weak and powerless beings. You will have to grow at least to the point where you can defeat the apostle alone.”
“that… … Isn’t that the senior’s standard?”
“Maybe, it could be the standard of the world.”
Cale kept his mouth shut.
Sometimes the world he looked out for seemed so wide and big that he couldn’t keep up with it.
It was like that today too.
On the other hand, how vast and vast is the world Manus sees and the threat he is preparing for.
Still, it was unimaginable for her.
