The area around the beast was covered in char, and nothing but black, sooty grounds surrounding it. Impaling it were several weapons; ranging from spears to blades. They all looked very powerful and valuable. There were seventy-one of the weapons that pierced the monster’s body… most likely what killed it. My eyes narrowed on the dead beast, and a wry smile appeared on my face. It now made sense why I sensed such powerful energy from beyond the gate back then. This monstrosity was the cause. Laid…

I realized my childish body was too inefficient. In so many ways, the fact that I was below average in height and build was going to impede my future plans… which is why I decided to solve the problem. Using Lara’s Gift, now my Skill, I could shape-shift into any form I desired. However, it consumed Mana, and it also had a duration despite how much I maxed it out. Since I couldn’t maintain it for too long, the ability was useless as a permanent solution. Scouring for a solution in the SHOP, I…

The pink barrier around the group was disabled, a signal for everyone to converge around the Masked Hero. Tia’s hastened steps were quicker than the others as she swiftly sped to the front of their savior and flashed him an excited smile. “You won again! Congratulations!” Her voice contained enthusiasm and joy. This flustered the Masked Man a little, or so it appeared to. ‘If only I could see his face…’ Tia thought to herself, imagining what kind of warm expression he could be making…

I watched as the System Window appeared in front of me. The other members of the group were behind me, looking in both awe and excitement. It seemed their fear had completely vanished, only anticipation remained. I shrugged and decided to keep going. I wasn’t going to be satisfied until I beat this Tower in one try! The moment I tapped on the option, a large wall of stone appeared. It looked like a gravestone, but massive. A white swirling portal glowed at its center, seeming…

Undead are creatures of false life. After losing their souls in death, they become mere puppets of death and act only to satiate the bottomless hunger and hatred they have for the living. As a result, effects of death have no real consequence on them. On the contrary, actually. Since they are creatures of death and corruption, any effect placed upon them with those qualities will only amplify their abilities. Yet, I made such a foolish move! I went to use a Skill variant that guaranteed exactly…

Our group walked in silence, traversing the Floors from the sixteenth. As promised, I didn’t allow them to fight and simply killed off all the enemies in our path. To me, they were all weaklings that didn’t deserve my time. If it had been up to me, I would have summoned some Demons to take care of the trash, but… ‘I can’t have them suspecting me for their predicament…’ I was already plenty suspicious as it was. If it wasn’t for the goodwill I built, they were probably going to fear me to…

Most people thought to start climbing the four Towers as soon as possible. I had to say… they were utterly foolish! When thinking about ascending the Tower, one would expect that there would be checkpoints to save progress. However, once an individual leaves, they have to start all over again. That process is annoying and repetitive. Imagine facing the first floor over a dozen times thanks to retiring over and over again. Not only did it consume time, but the rewards dwindled the more one challenged a…

It has been three months since the first scenario began. The tutorial ended, and the world was once again plunged into the unknown. Confusion reigned among many, but not me. After all… I had been expecting this for quite some time… The first thing I did after the announcements were made was to check out my new Titles and Skills. I got a decent amount, and it was a big bonus to begin the serious aspect of the apocalypse with these abilities. The Title I received allowed me to farm Karma Points…

>BOOOOMMMM!!!< My fist easily tore through the monster, killing it in one hit. I felt awe, surprise… and fear gathering on me from behind. The people who powerlessly sat on the floor had their eyes on me—watching as I subdued a creature they had so much difficulty with. Monster parts scattered and its blood gushed out, staining the immediate area in the green liquid that leaked out. It only took a few seconds before every vestige of the monster vanished from sight. Appearing for a moment, before…

I looked at the one in front of me as he shuddered and trembled, leading the path I already knew. My towering gait viewed him to be no more than a rat who was desperate for survival, yet still plagued by guilt. ‘He abandons his friends, but now wants to rescue them? Pfft… what a joke.’ I mused as we moved quickly. Well, of course, the man kept teleporting with his Gift, but I had no problem keeping up, with my speed. “T-thank you once a-again for helping! I truly appreciate this!” The…
