Chapter 45: Runic Tower (Part-2)

"Oh, it is quite interesting."

Apollo was listening, feeling humorous about all kinds of things he would feel and see in the illusions.

And what kind of things will his master see? Will all those be perverted things or something else?

He smiled, as he was now really curious about it.

Master Aaron continued, "Second is ’Spirit Runic Hall’, a place that helps in increasing the spirit strength of warriors."

"This place was entirely opposite of Psychic Hall; you here will feel like hell as your spirit will be ripped apart and tortured, and the pain can be so great that many lose their minds here and don’t dare to come here again."

"But the progress corresponds to the gains, as the improvement of spirit is many times faster than any training."

"So, this is a place for masochists."

One after another, he is going to all sorts of unique places; what next? Gay bar? But if it is a lesbian bar, then it will be better.

"Masochists, What?"

Master Aaron stopped as he heard Apollo mumbling words.

"Ahh... Nothing."

"Continue Master."

"Ah, yes. So these two places—Psychic Hall and Spirit Hall—are the most important places on every floor of the tower."

"You are now close to breaking your first limit. So, what you need to do is to find the feeling of a breakthrough. And to do that, you need to actively take part in these places and clear as many formations as possible."

"Then the feeling of breaking through will come on its own."

He nodded and agreed, as last time, he almost made it but fell short of something. Maybe after experiencing the Runic Tower, he should be able to break that final barrier.

"Okay, then, what you want to try first is the psychic hall or spirit hall."

"First try the Psychic Hall."

Apollo said after thinking for a moment, as he didn’t want to feel the pain first. Master Aaron didn’t say anything and led him to the psychic hall.

As they came close to the entrance of the First Floor, their Token Runes glowed up, and the runic formation that covered the place let them enter without a problem.

They came in front of Psychic Hall, where a few people were talking and laughing, looking at the large metal monument with various names beside them.

"There are still no changes in the ranking..."

"How can it be easy? It’s already quite an achievement. Not many can ever get their name on it."

Apollo was drawn to the monument filled with various names as they were discussing with enthusiasm.

Master Aaron noticed and quickly introduced him to the ranking monument.

"This monument records the various records cleared by the people on the first floor."

"Like every floor of the tower, psychic Hall has ’99’ runic formations. They are different runic formations that everyone can try to break. And the more runic formations you break, the higher the chance to get your name on the ranking monument."

"If you clear all ninety-nine runic formations, then your name will be carved on the monument forever, and you will also receive great rewards from the Runic Tower."

"Oh interesting..."

"But wouldn’t it be easy for someone like Master’s strength to break through all the runic formation on the first floor?"

Apollo couldn’t help but ask, as he felt it was an easy loophole in the whole process.

"Kid, you underestimate the capability of the Runic Tower? It can judge the life level of a person, and only if the person clears the floor of their level will they receive an award or their name appear on the monument."

"The first floor is for geniuses below the limit-breaker level and is the best place for you."

"You can also try if you leave your name here, but if you can’t, then don’t try too hard, as after seventy runic formations, it becomes extremely hard to break through, as if it was made just to piss you off.

"But still, there are monsters who may appear once in a hundred years and clear all the ninety-nine runic formations." Apollo found the ranking monument interesting, which was filled with many names.

The ranking monument was divided into two parts, one big and one small. The bigger one took up two-thirds of the area, and the names on it were glowing with bright golden light, like representing kings.

They were the names of the eternal geniuses who left their mark in this place. Even after ten thousand years, there were only about one hundred and eighty-one names on it. They were shining brightly, showing their eternal brilliance.

He looked at the first and last name on the ranking monument, as these people were the first and last to clear all ninety-nine runic formations on the first floor.

’Aedigarr Dragonium’ is the first and last one named ’Eronoth Blades’.

Both names gave him a powerful and mysterious feeling, and he didn’t know if they were alive now or what kind of achievements they had in their lives, but they were definitely strong.

Following that, he examined the smaller section, which had barely a hundred names.

This section seems to contain the names of the top hundred people who cleared the most runic formations this year.

The first name was ’Falkor Aoki’, who seems to have cleared ’81’ runic formations.

The second one seems to be a girl named ’Arya Starken’ with a clear record of ’80’ runic formations.

The last one among the hundred seems to have cleared ’74’ runic formations, meaning all of them are quite close, but still, the difficulty can be understood, as ’81’ is the highest anybody has reached this year.

"Kid, try and let me see how high you can go."

Master Aaron smiled and encouraged Apollo to show him what his limits were.

’Yes."

Apollo calmly entered the hall, covered in Runic formation. Without hesitation, he stepped inside and instantly felt everything around him started to disappear.
