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

"My lady, what is going on?"

At James' question, a window opened in front of him after almost half a minute:

[I somewhat concealed your presence, there were too many necromancers and shapeshifters. Even if you are strong for this floor, you tried to complete the task in a very wrong way. You shouldn't have taken that necklace and you shouldn't have convinced Elanor. On the 8th floor, you and Elanor should have escaped through the secret passage in the mansion, but you walked out of the mansion's door.

On the 9th floor you will be alone, I beg you, please be careful, without my help, you would have died a painful death that you can't imagine].

James buried his head between his knees as he read the paragraph in front of him in-depth and then inhaled and exhaled deeply. At that moment, he straightened up as if something had come to his mind and then said, "I couldn't get any sense of your power, how did you hide me?"

[Haha...You may have become stronger, but you don't even have as much power as a strand of my hair, sweetheart. You won't feel anything if I don't want you to, you can be sure of that.]

Finding a great deal of truth in Nyx's words, James bowed his head and then lay down on the ground, the fact that he was in such feelings every time made him wonder if his mind was getting stronger.

He didn't want to get into such feelings.

"So, in a way, I disrupted the functioning of the mission, did I, my lady?" When he asked this question, which suddenly came to his mind, he received an answer he did not expect:

[Yes, I don't know what will happen on the 9th floor. To put it simply, the tower gives different tests to almost everyone, on every floor. I mean, the quest on your 6th floor could have been somewhere else, not in the graveyard, but since you've finished the [Hell Difficulty] tutorial, you're faced with more difficult and complex quests than usual.]

[I was a Hard Difficulty player, James, and you have finished a place that is at least 100 times more difficult than mine, and the tower is trying to adapt to you and present you with tests that will push your limits too far. My daughter Nemesis did the same task on this floor as you, as did many gods and goddesses.

While my daughter's mission involved only ten shapeshifters and a few necromancers, yours involved fifty or even sixty. You wouldn't have made it out of there alive.]

Reading Nyx's words seriously, James paused as the awkwardness of almost dying hit him.

"I'll be here for a few minutes if you could give me some copies. Don't get me wrong, it's not about how to clear the mission, just tell me exactly how careful I need to be with the level of difficulty given to me."

James suddenly uttered these words and then another message window popped up in front of him:

[Technically speaking, you are not going to the mansion this time. Floor 6 was based on breaking the necromancers' illusions. The 7th floor was there to gain information from the shards of the future. The 8th floor will be based on using this information to escape and the 9th floor will be based on fighting. So the only thing you have to be careful about is not to die].

After closing this window, James took a deep breath and then briefly organised his inventory. He had a superior Health Potion in his hand, and since the time to use it was now, he placed it at the top of his inventory.

Then he looked at the Mystic Beast Egg as if something caught his eye, and then smiled and said, "So you have grown already."

[Growth Rate: 0.739%/100]

However, James, who had already started to hold Clarent tightly in his hand, moved towards the passage of the 9th Floor and entered it.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw that he was in the same place as Elanor. The tiredness in Elanor's eyes was obvious.

James didn't know how long she had been awake or where they were. One thing he did know, though, was that if Elanor looked this exhausted, it must have been a long time since they had left the mansion.

He pulled two sandwiches out of his inventory and handed one to Elanor, not forgetting a water bottle.

"We must use caution, but eat and get some sleep, my lady," James said suddenly, and with that, Elanor rose from her seat and sat down next to James.

After Elanor had eaten the sandwich with great appetite, she put her head on James' shoulder and then closed her eyes, you could feel her tears falling and even her body trembling.

"It's a shame..." James suddenly thought it seemed strange to him that this sort of thing was happening, after all, it could have been him instead of Elanor.

Before long, however, the young woman had fallen asleep and James was the only one left awake.

As James looked around, he was experiencing many thoughts.

Nyx had told James that the 7th floor was a piece of the future, but James couldn't make up his mind. This meant that James was living deeply in the past.

The person who was with Elanor when these events happened in the past should have been killed and Elanor should have been imprisoned again.

But then how could they get themselves out of this filth? How would James clean the floor? After all, it was clear that fighting alone would get them nowhere.

"The Bell of Hypnos!" said James suddenly, the colour draining from his face. Yes, maybe he wouldn't fall asleep himself, but if he managed to use it at the most dangerous time, he might be able to force Elanor and all the other dangers to fall asleep.

Still, he didn't know at what time he should use the bell. After all, going to the mansion and shouting "Your enemy has arrived!" would not accomplish anything.

Who knows how many shapeshifters were there, who would show their true colours to anyone who did such a thing?

Nevertheless, the main event of the plan was decided in James' mind, now he just needed something to hide Elanor for a short time...And what could it be?
