Episode 232 – Conquering Babel ~Complete Part 2~
Great Magic.
As you can tell just by hearing the name, it is a level of magic that is completely different from ordinary magic.
A wizard without talent cannot even dream in his entire life, and even talented wizards can barely achieve it unless dozens or hundreds of them gather together.
It is not easy for even powerful, omnipotent people who are commonly called archmages to cast the spell alone.
Even if successful, it may take a long time to cast.
But that doesn’t apply to Dina.
There are two reasons. First, her skills are already beyond that of an archmage.
Above all, it is due to the characteristics of magical power.
I don’t know the exact reason yet, but her magic is fundamentally different from general magic.
Just looking at the ominous dark magic.
Because it is similar to that of the Demon King, who is called the master of all demons.
Because it is on a different level from the magic power of ordinary people.
It is the opposite of the goddess’s blessing, but to that extent, it is as excellent as the goddess’s blessing.
Since such a being has grown to the point where even the level of a great wizard is looked down upon, the casting speed of great magic is overwhelmingly fast.
Only 30 seconds had passed since I gathered all my magical energy and concentrated my mind.
Great magic began to be released from both of Dina’s hands.
She gave a small wink, and Kania quickly noticed and pulled out her scarlet and threw it away, and she herself ran away.
And now, a small sphere of darkness has appeared in a place where bosses are gathered together.
[Dark series ultimate magic, void.]
“Opening the door.”
Dinah’s small words crumbled helplessly in the air.
Jeok! The sphere of darkness begins to crack. And the cracks that formed like that quickly grew in size.
“…… !”
Just when the boss monsters, who instinctively felt that something was unusual, were trying to escape from the spot.
Kwasik!
The sphere of darkness completely breaks, and endless darkness pours out from inside.
“Krrr!”
If that had been all it took, the boss monsters would have escaped easily, but if that were all it was, it wouldn’t have been called the Great Magic.
Wow!
Dozens or hundreds of black hands come out from the darkness and grab the monsters and drag them into the darkness.
Monsters with strong bodies are somehow resisting, but monsters with weak bodies are dragged into the darkness by the black hand.
Wow!

It turned into blood and came out again.
Just because the body was strong did not mean that it was safe. If it were a magic that could be destroyed with just that, it wouldn’t even be called great magic.
While they were struggling while being held by the black hand, the darkness that burst from the sphere of darkness gradually spread around them and engulfed them.
The result after that was the same.
Kwasik!
It slowly shatters from the part that touches the darkness, and eventually dies in blood without leaving a single piece of flesh behind.
It was a meaningless ending that made all the hardships up until now pointless.

As soon as we cleared out all the bosses, we started climbing the barbell at a fast pace.
4Th floor, 5th floor, 6th floor, 10th floor, 13th floor, and finally the 15th floor….
Perhaps because the boss disappeared, the monsters on the floor were not aggressive, and unlike the labyrinth on the first floor, it was not difficult to find the gate to the next floor, so it was possible.
Of course, it took about a week because it was so big.
‘Still, it’s ridiculously fast.’
Should I be thankful to the demon god who suddenly intervened and allowed me to deal with bosses of all levels at once?
Everyone has grown to a higher level, and most of all, Stia and I have reached divinity. It is now possible to go back and forth between divine states at will!
In addition, I felt grateful because it shortened the time.
However, if there is one thing overlooked….
“Ah.”
The last floor, the 15th floor, was empty.
No monsters, no fallen angels as boss monsters.
Originally, the 15th floor was to subdue fallen angels without killing them, then purify them and turn them back into angels.
Only then can you ask the questions you want to ask….
‘I killed him.’
Still, since it was an urgent situation, it was something that could not be helped.
We couldn’t even get the purification item that could be obtained by going up to the 15th floor, and if we didn’t kill it, we were going to die.
As a result, we lost one of the reasons we came to Babel.
An opportunity to ask the angels the necessary questions.
Still, the most important goal, which is for everyone to grow, was achieved to a sufficient and sufficient extent.
Even though we regretted the past, there was nothing we could do about it, so in the end we decided to stay on the 15th floor for a few days, rest, and then leave.
“Everyone will be surprised when we clear Babel and leave, right?”
“I guess so.”
Scarlett smiled brightly and clapped timidly. Looking at her expression, it seemed like she was imagining herself being revered by her people.
But I have no intention of making fun of it. That’s right, because clearing the Tower of Babel was such a big deal.
An ancient tower that has never been cleared in history.
Because we cleared it after only one attempt.
Probably the first to conquer the Tower of Babel! I think it will be on the news endlessly for a while.
Stories related to him continue to circulate on the Internet.
I’m sure they’ll ask about what’s going on in the upper echelons, such as interviews and all.
Of course, I have no intention of agreeing to an interview.
‘Of course, how can I tell you that I accidentally killed a fallen angel and didn’t get the clear reward? It’s embarrassing.’
Above all, it’s like we haven’t really experienced the 3rd floor.
A layer that loses its boss is effectively deactivated. This means that it is possible to clear it even with minimal skills.
She even asked Scarlett if she could talk about things up to the third floor, but I just nailed it down and said no.
“Why?”
“We still have more work to do.”
If you keep talking about being a demon god or something, more attention will be focused on you.
If that happens, there is a possibility that there will be restrictions on future plans.
‘Now all that’s left is to drink alcohol with the devil?’
To be honest, this member was not afraid of the Four Heavenly Kings. The only thing I’m worried about is the Demon King and the Demon God.
I think everything will work out for the Demon King since Stia and I have reached divinity… I still feel chills down my spine when I think of ‘Memories of Han Si-woo’ that I saw the other day.
Because in those memories, we were slaughtered by the devil.
Above all, even if you manage to defeat the Demon King, the last boss remains.
Even if Celie reaches divinity and Dina reaches the same level as us, we cannot estimate the odds of victory.
In the first place, you can’t find any records about demon gods anywhere, and you can’t figure out how much power they have or how they fight.
‘At least he will be much stronger than the Demon King.’
Isn’t there a gap between a hero and a goddess?
If it really is at that level, the odds of winning when fighting a demon god should be considered less than 1%.
‘You have to fight without even knowing what the strongest enemy is.’
You have to joke in moderation.
Actually, the best scenario is that after defeating the Demon King, the Demon God simply gives up on this world and leaves.
Because I don’t think that will happen.
“I was originally going to ask the angel about demons, but….”
What kind of being a demon is, how it fights, and how strong it is.
But since that opportunity is gone, we have no choice but to prepare as best we can.
All we can do is assume the worst, prepare for the worst, and hope that we can win in the end.
‘… ‘This may have been the demon’s goal from the beginning.’
If, as I guess, the demon god has decided that we are a threat to him.
The target of the demon god who influenced Babel may not have been to use boss monsters to annihilate us, but to force us to kill the fallen angels in the first place so that they could not obtain information about themselves.
‘How thorough.’
Even if that weren’t the case, the Demon God would have a significant advantage, but it seemed like he had a firm determination not to give even the slightest possibility.
So, you need to plan even more thoroughly.
‘You cannot hastily go against the devil.’
First of all, when you leave the Tower of Babel, you must take a short rest period and clearly embody divinity. Because it’s still a little awkward.
And since divinity has a lot of room for development, we should grow it as much as possible.
It was after I first set foot in the Divine that the Demon God became active, so the clue must also be in the Divine.
Fortunately, Stia has reached divinity along with me, so we will be able to grow quickly by giving each other advice.
Let’s definitely grow like that, train our friends who have become stronger this time, and then go to the Demon King’s Castle.
Before that, if there was an opportunity to attack the Four Heavenly Kings separately, they would attack them right away to reduce their power even a little.
What I’m most worried about is the devil getting involved when fighting the devil lord.
How do you know if you will suddenly intervene like in the Tower of Babel?
Even if there is only one Demon Lord, it is difficult, and even if there is only one Demon God, the chances of winning disappear, but if two attack together, the chances are really gone.
But even if you think about this, there is no way to do anything about it….
‘I hope not.’
I thought for a moment and gathered my thoughts before standing up.
“… “Everyone, did you get enough rest?”
At that moment, the people who were talking or resting with their eyes closed looked at me.
I looked at their faces for a moment and then nodded.
“Let’s go out now.”
It’s time to go back.
