Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

"Nevertheless, theft is theft, no matter what your intentions were, and you must pay the penalty. I will explain your punishment now."

At these words of James, the female dark elf got up from where she was came to the iron bars and fell on her knees.

"Please don't keep me for long, I didn't sell any paintings and I have to go, please, I swear I will come back in a month and do my punishment, even if it is death. I just need a month."

At the female dark elf's words, James took a deep breath and then spoke:

"This tower is far too cruel. War, pain, cries and pleas float everywhere. Betrayal, sadness and trauma are everywhere, whether you are born inside the tower or come from outside. You are young, are you not?"

The female dark elf shook her head at James' question and then said, "I am 16 years old, sir."

James continued his speech with these words:

"I lost my parents at a young age, I was about your age, yet the tower gave me a purpose, a deep and functional purpose, yet not everyone is as fortunate as I was, not free, not bound to life or able to think about their desires."

"I have been filled with such thoughts lately. Would you like to hear the first purpose, the dream the tower gave me?"

The female dark elf shook her head and looked at James with curious eyes.

"To pierce the top of the tower, to reach Chaos himself."

At these words, Ariel smiled, Theseus' goosebumps rose and the female dark elf's admiration increased.

"Of course, the main thing I wanted to do was to reach Chaos, but I managed to find another purpose," James said, his smile growing even wider, and then he said the following words.

"Relationships filled with war. Pain, lamentation, betrayal, sadness and trauma. All of it reaching out to the likes of you and yours, and the gods and goddesses don't even attempt to do anything, and those who do are labouring like the church of the night, and it's not enough."

"My ancestor wanted human perfection and freedom. I want something different, young lady. I want to create a tower where all races can live together without war, where there will be no more prayers. It is a situation where I am willing to kill the gods."

When James said these words, he reached his hand into the iron bars, gently took the hand of the female dark elf on the other side of the bars and then said the following words that would make him admire everyone watching him:

"A tower. A tower where you and people like you will never have to cry. This is my dream. Every child's smile I saw in the city on the 5th floor told me how many children grew up in wars. How many heroes, thieves, murderers, painters, kings, queens, priests, nuns, musicians, actors, and how many other potential children were lost."

"My dream and second goal is to create a tower where no child needs to cry."

At James' words, tears began to stream down the face of the female dark elf standing in front of him.

"I can not do this alone and I need the help of people like you. Behind me is Theseus, the son of the god Poseidon, the killer of the legendary monster Minator. Next to him is Ariel, one of the two people I consider as my mother, and perhaps one of the greatest female warriors I have ever known."

"Datura and Aether, the two popes of the church, one female and one male, strangely the most energetic elders I have ever seen. Ahil and his family, who try to protect every child, woman, man or elder on the 5th floor."

"My daughter Miracle and her mother, the goddess Nemesis. My other mother figure is Nyx and her love Erebus. Aether, Hemera, Moros, Keres, Thanatos, Hypnos, Oneiros, Momos, Hesperaides, Clotho, Lachesis, Atropos, Nemesis, Apate, Philotes, Geras and Eris. They are all children of Nyx and my family, but I can only get a little help from them."

"In this case, it will be you who will step in. I can't realise my dream alone. Even with the help of all these people I've listed, not everything will be possible."

"Therefore, young lady, my punishment for you will be that you and the children in your care must attend the Church of Night."

No one knew what to say to these words of James, even these words of James were against the existence of the tower, and the cruel tower could never change.

"I will take you as my shadow, you will develop and who knows, maybe you will become my spy, maybe you will kill, but I swear that a day will come and when you look back, it will not be the bodies of those you killed. What you will see when you look back will be millions, billions of smiles that will greet you. That is my dream."

When James finished speaking, the female dark elf bowed her head, she did not have the strength to lift her head, her sadness was enormous, but her joy was even greater.

"Can I be someone like you say?" asked the female dark elf. Hearing these words, James said with a smile, "Look at me, I was nothing but a person who was trying to kill himself before getting invited to the tower." when all eyes turned to him on these words, he said these words with a big smile:

"But now, I have the biggest family that a person could ever ask for, I might not have a lot of money yet I am the richest man alive."

After these words, James signalled Ariel to unlock the iron bars and then turned to the little girl and said, "Go get your little brothers and sisters, your new home is waiting for you."

Then he climbed the stairs of the basement and left the house with Theseus.

"I leave the care of the children to you, brother." James said, and Theseus, who heard these words, smiled proudly and said "No worries brother, I got you." and went back into the house.

James, with a big smile on his face, entered the passage opened in front of him to return to the 5th floor and left the 20th floor.
