Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 601

After conquering the Path of the Five Elements, Se-un continued to tackle the trials of the 83rd floor with Arcana.

“So, Ruin is still hiding?”

“Hiding… something like that.”

“I want to see his face for once. Surely, he hasn’t forgotten me, has he?”

“I don’t think so.”

They weren’t exactly having an important conversation. It wasn’t like the serious talks about the past they had on the Path of the Five Elements.

Just trivial small talk.

They advanced through the trials of the 83rd floor, engaging in pointless chatter that wouldn’t help anyone.

“It’s really amazing. It hasn’t been that long since I first saw you all in Lilac, but everyone has grown so much.”

“You helped too.”

“Of course. But even without my help, everyone would have grown up well. Everyone is that strong. Not just in potential, but mentally too.”

“That’s right.”

“What do you mean, ‘That’s right’? That’s also thanks to you, Wolf.”

“Thanks to me?”

“You’re being everyone’s support. Mentally too. Everyone wouldn’t have been able to endure it without you.”

Se-un felt embarrassed for no reason and silently increased his pace.

There were various trials on the 83rd floor, but there was no ordeal that could stop their speed.

Se-un overcame the ordeals without issue, thanks to his basic immunity, resistance, and the help of magic, while Arcana used her cards.

As they moved forward quickly, they soon reached the end of the 83rd floor.

‘I arrived earlier than I thought.’

The 83rd floor did have Hidden Pieces.

However, most of the things that could be obtained there weren’t of great help to Se-un, so they skipped them all, and that’s how it turned out.

“That’s a shame. I wanted to talk a little more~”

“Next time. If it’s time, we can make plenty of it even in the residence.”

“I guess I have no choice~”

Just because they arrived early doesn’t mean the 83rd floor was easy.

The various ordeals demanded extreme pain and patience, and at the same time, they twisted the path to stimulate the player’s limits to the end.

It was only thanks to Se-un’s strength and the Journey’s Guide that they passed through quickly.

Arcana also passed through quickly thanks to Se-un, but she had already cleared the 83rd floor before, so she would have passed through quickly even without Se-un’s help.

Squeak-

The door at the end of the ordeal opened.

Naturally, an angel was waiting beyond the door of the ordeal to welcome the player who had completed the trial.

It was the same angel they had seen at the entrance, with his head bowed and staring intently at his wrist.

What was that?

‘A wristwatch?’

It was a golden wristwatch.

Before the Regression, the angel had never shown such a 모습 [appearance].

Before he could even ask what was wrong, the angel seemed to realize Se-un’s arrival and hurriedly raised his head, showing a surprised expression.

“Re, re, really! You really came!”

“…Is it possible to come falsely?”

“You came incredibly fast!”

Se-un immediately realized.

The qualification to receive a feather from the angel in the trial of the 83rd floor. That was ‘speed’.

‘This trial was a little slow, though.’

He didn’t waste time, but he also entered the Path of the Five Elements with Arcana, had conversations, and crossed the trials at a leisurely pace.

Because they moved leisurely, they passed through later than usual.

But.

“A, amazing. As expected, the sisters didn’t give you the feather for nothing!”

Judging from the angel’s reaction, that didn’t seem to be the case.

Se-un himself thought he was a little late, but he was fast enough.

“I, I’m convinced! And I think there’s always a reason why the, the sisters gave you the feather! I can’t fall behind them!”

Seeing the reaction, he honestly wondered if he could have afforded to be a little more relaxed.

Not just in terms of time, but the angel seemed to be more concerned about the two previous angels.

“I don’t know what it is, but congratulations~ I guess there’s something like that?”

“It’s my first time receiving one too.”

“I’m envious. I should try it sometime~”

He had half given up on the feather on the 83rd floor, but he ended up receiving it by chance.

He felt a little awkward, but so what?

‘I got it, so that’s enough.’

He passed the angel, who shrugged his shoulders as if proud that he had made the same choice as the two sisters, and ascended to the 84th floor.

Trials were trials, but the place he had been aiming for was coming up soon.

The trial of the 86th floor.

It was where the Guild Master of the Black Wings was located.

* * *

After that, Se-un’s conquest continued.

However, he didn’t just wander through trials without rest.

“Ugh, I’m tired.”

“If we hadn’t gone into that ‘soup’ as Blood Wolf said, I don’t think I could have handled it.”

“I know, right? We should have gone in for longer instead of complaining.”

As the trials became larger as they climbed the Tower, they were stopping by the residence for proper rest.

Whenever they did, they could hear the voices of the guild members.

“Hyungnim [term of respect for an older brother or male friend]! I can’t do it anymore. I can’t even run away, and when my butt caught fire, I thought I was going to die!”

– The Constellation, ‘Donkey-Headed Bandit’, recalls that time and can’t stop laughing.

The trials in the 80s.

As the difficulty increased even further, everyone was struggling, but they were climbing the Tower smoothly despite saying that.

Even the Azure Dragon Guild was joining forces to somehow follow the Diablo Guild.

“A Tower within a Tower. I thought it would be better since the size of the Tower is fixed, but that’s not the case.”

“It’s really just a Tower within a Tower, you know? The entrance is just a Tower, and when you open the door, a completely different space pops out!”

For a simple example, there was the trial of the 84th floor.

The 84th floor was called ‘Difficult Journey’ and was a form close to a maze.

Instead of just one floor, you had to go up and down five floors to find the exit, and its size was enormous.

A vast field where, if you were unlucky and couldn’t find the exit, you would be trapped in the maze for several months.

Se-un was able to pass through quickly thanks to the Journey’s Guide, but others were not.

“I used to find it annoying and scary when monsters popped out. Now I’m starting to miss the monsters…”

“Tell me about it. I’d rather quickly catch and get rid of monsters, even if it’s hard. This is real torture, torture.”

It was so hard that people were saying the Demonic Realm was better than the Celestial Realm.

After completing the trial of the 85th floor, Se-un was finally able to reach the trial of the 86th floor, which he had been aiming for.

– Welcome to the trial of the 86th floor.

– Theme: Stairway to Heaven

– Having completed preparations to head to the sky from the Tower of Babel, you have officially begun to head to the sky.

– Step on the stairs leading to the clouds and arrive there.

There were stairs everywhere. Steep stairs with an incline of 45 degrees.

The height was so great that the end was blurry and not visible.

And this time again, an angel descended from the central staircase to explain the trial.

It was a handsome angel with firm muscles all over his body.

“A challenger. There have been many challengers recently. I don’t know how many of them will be able to reach the clouds.”

The stairs he had ridden down disappeared like a mirage.

In the end, the player had to choose one of the four stairs visible in all directions.

“It’s simple. Choose one of those four stairs and climb. And arrive. That’s it.”

“If that’s the case, is there really a need for you guys to show up and guide us?”

“Hmph, do you think we want to do this? By the way, is that guy someone you know?”

“That guy?”

Were the Diablo Guild waiting for him? They had agreed not to expect Se-un’s help in the trials, so they wouldn’t be waiting for Se-un here, would they?

Besides, when he had just looked around, there was clearly no one there.

Who on earth…

“Phew, you’re finally here.”

“…Feather.”

“Are you still calling me that? After seeing my face this much, shouldn’t you be a little more comfortable?”

“I remember we haven’t even exchanged names yet.”

“That’s… true. But I don’t plan on telling anyone my name except the Master.”

“I don’t particularly want to know either.”

“Then I guess there’s nothing I can do. Call me that then.”

The Black Wing’s Herald.

She was waiting for Se-un.

It seemed that the Black Wings had directly ordered her to guide Se-un, so she had come to find him herself at the point of reaching the 86th floor.

“What, you guys know each other? Well, it doesn’t matter. It’s not like the stairs will end faster if we do it together. Just do your best.”

The angel left those words and took a few steps up the newly created stairs.

Then, along with the stairs, the angel’s body scattered and disappeared like a mirage.

“No, what’s with that angel? The ones below were at least a little more like angels, but this one is like a neighborhood thug, not an angel.”

“Is she usually that talkative? An assassin and herald should be tight-lipped.”

“She’s usually quiet.”

“Then why is she so talkative with me?”

“She’s very conscious of the Black Wings. But she doesn’t have many acquaintances outside of the Black Wings either.”

I thought this last time, but I don’t know when she started treating me so comfortably.

“How long have you been waiting?”

“Not long. I was watching Diablo’s movements, so I quickly figured out where you were.”

“Did you come up alone?”

“Even though I look like this, I’ve been up to the 88th floor. This is easy.”

The Black Wing’s Herald.

I thought she would be strong, but I didn’t think she would be skilled enough to climb up to the 86th floor.

‘Well, she said she was an assassin, so.’

Assassins are basically fast and agile.

She’s also skilled at finding her way, so re-climbing a path she’s already been on would be easier than for other players.

“So, where is the Guild Master of the Black Wings?”

“Sad news. The Master recently moved on to the next floor. He insisted on searching every staircase thoroughly and going up.”

“I see.”

“You’re not very surprised?”

“I thought he would have gone up by now.”

“You know? The 87th floor is even harder to search than here. The Master can’t be contacted when he’s concentrating, so I don’t know his exact location either.”

“Don’t worry. I can find him.”

“Well, you’ve always been an expert at finding your way, haven’t you?”

I already expected that the Black Wing’s Master would have climbed to the 87th floor.

No, if it’s the Black Wing’s Master, he should be going up by now, no matter how thoroughly he searches.

‘If it’s the 87th floor, that’s the Lower Sky, huh.’

Certainly, from the 87th floor onwards, the field becomes abnormally wide.

Finding one person there. Wouldn’t it be easier to find a needle in a haystack?

“Then there’s no need to stay here.”

“Take me with you!”

“Didn’t you say you’ve climbed it before? You can go up alone.”

“Let me get a ride too. Don’t worry. If I go ahead, I’ll follow you well.”

I had such a thought for a moment.

‘Is there really a need to take the Herald with me?’

Now that I’ve come this far, I can find the Black Wing’s Guild Master by myself.

There was no need to be guided by her.

But…

‘It could be seen as a sign of friendship, not guidance.’

Se-un wasn’t going to fight the Black Wing’s Master recklessly.

First, he needed to find out what he was looking for.

If Se-un’s prediction was correct, there was a high probability that what he was looking for was the starting point of the Divine-Demonic War that would happen in the future.

“Let’s go.”

“Shall we see? How good is Diablo’s Master at finding his way?”

Se-un began to climb the stairs without hesitation.
