All Master of 100 Floors Episode 151
The Final Test (5)
“You are weak. But don’t worry. I will lead you.”
After the final test ended, Trey Dice spoke confidently. His expression showed not a trace of doubt.
This was one month before his death.
* * *
Kang Jun-hyeok looked at Trey, who was watching him with wary eyes.
Trey Dice.
He had successfully cleared the final test and became Earth’s representative.
And one month later, he died on the 65th Floor while climbing the Tower.
It wasn’t even a particularly difficult floor. Rather, it was close to being quite easy to clear.
But Trey never returned after entering that floor.
Later, when Kang Jun-hyeok cleared that floor, he understood.
There was a very malicious trap on that floor.
It would be fine normally, but if you had strong will and belief in yourself, it was actually a dangerous floor.
Trey had stronger confidence than anyone. That’s why he fell into the trap and died.
So.
“I’ll shatter your delusion.”
“Nonsense. I’m strong. No matter how strong you are, you can’t ignore me!”
Trey bared his teeth and kicked off the ground. Intense power flowed into his sword. Sharp metallic sounds rang out as they collided.
Kagagagak!
Kang Jun-hyeok responded lightly. But even that alone made Trey feel intense pressure. He gritted his teeth at the burden felt in his sword-holding hand.
‘What the…!’
There was no chance of winning in a contest of strength and speed.
Then he would compete with technique. Trey’s stance changed. He lowered his body and moved erratically in all directions. He constantly aimed for Kang Jun-hyeok’s openings.
‘He is strong.’
Watching those movements, Kang Jun-hyeok thought.
Trey had talent.
Though he was lacking compared to Yu Jin-ha, that was because Yu Jin-ha was abnormal. His talent was among the best even looking at the entire universe.
Moreover, Trey had a very high understanding of the System. Even now, he was pressuring Kang Jun-hyeok by utilizing the peculiarities of a Player’s body to ignore minor attacks.
He was certainly strong.
‘But that’s all there is to it.’
Tadat.
Trey raised his sword high.
[Mountain Splitting.]
Power capable of destroying mountains came crashing down. An Advanced Skill. Mountain Splitting. The power contained within it was literally at the level of splitting mountains.
Kang Jun-hyeok reached out his hand toward the sword striking down.
Kuuuuung!
An intense wave spreads out. Trey’s eyes widen.
“Crazy!”
He shouted without realizing it.
The sword he had struck down was caught in Kang Jun-hyeok’s hand. He tried to pull it out hastily, but it didn’t budge as if it were stuck in a boulder.
Thud.
Kang Jun-hyeok’s fist drives into Trey’s abdomen.
Overwhelming speed that didn’t even allow him to think of defense. He couldn’t even scream as he rolled on the ground.
“…Kugh!”
Trey barely manages to exhale the breath he had swallowed. His body curled up like a shrimp.
He felt unbearable pain from just a single blow. Kang Jun-hyeok muttered toward him as he groaned.
“You’re weak. Yet you’re under the delusion that you’re strong, that you’re outstanding.”
“…Don’t make me laugh.”
Trey grits his teeth and stands up.
“I am outstanding. I am strong. I am special, you’re just the abnormal one.”
Trey didn’t bend his pride. Kang Jun-hyeok wasn’t particularly surprised.
‘This prideful bastard won’t be broken by just this much.’
So he’ll break him by force. Kang Jun-hyeok snaps his fingers. Golden light rises and envelops Trey.
Kiiing.
Trey’s eyes widened. The pain disappeared instantly and the fatigue accumulated in his muscles was relieved.
No System Window appeared.
It meant it wasn’t a skill.
“What did you…”
“Divine Power. It’s Divine Authority. You can obtain it by achieving Perfect Clear on the 23rd Floor.”
Kang Jun-hyeok smiled slightly.
“You also have Divine Power like me, right? Can you show me?”
“…”
“What? You don’t have it? How disappointing.”
Trey’s face contorted as he stood up and delivered a sword strike filled with rage.
Kang Jun-hyeok lightly stepped back and took out an orb. A Ruby Fragment popped out from it.
Jjeoeoeoeoeng!
An intense explosion occurred. Trey couldn’t even respond and was buried.
“Kueoeoeoek!”
“You can learn magic on the 18th Floor. This is Arcana Gem Magic I learned there. What magic did you learn?”
“…”
Trey couldn’t even enter the Magic Tower on the 18th Floor.
Kang Jun-hyeok raised his sword. He infused it with Internal Energy and thrust it forward. Trey barely defended with his sword, but his body was slammed down.
Kuuuuuung!
“Kkulleok!”
“This is Internal Energy. You can obtain it on the 27th Floor. And this is from the 7th Floor. A skill you can get while progressing through Yulsir’s Quest.”
[Judgment of Law.]
“Urgh!”
Trey staggers as his body is suddenly burdened. Kang Jun-hyeok smiled coldly.
“You said you were special. Then shouldn’t you be able to show value and techniques worthy of that? Show me what only you possess.”
“….”
Trey’s eyes wavered.
He didn’t possess any of the things Kang Jun-hyeok had shown him.
No. Far from not possessing them, he had no idea how to obtain them from the floors Kang Jun-hyeok had mentioned.
Kang Jun-hyeok spoke quietly.
“You are strong. You have talent and a high understanding of the System. But that’s all.”
Flashing Intuition.
He lacked the observational skills to dig deep into the floors and analyze them.
“Confidence in yourself. You climbed the Tower with only that one thing. You missed countless opportunities that existed there. In other words, you too are ultimately just an ordinary human existing in this vast Universe.”
“Ah, ahhh! Ahhhhh!”
Trey charges forward with a scream-like roar. Kang Jun-hyeok lightly flicks his finger.
[Lost God’s Divine Radiance.]
Light illuminates the World.
Trey lets out a hollow laugh at the white light that covers the World.
“Ha, ha….”
And then he is erased. When the light fades, nothing remains.
[Kang Jun-hyeok has eliminated Trey Dice.]
[Final Survivor: Kang Jun-hyeok]
“Yahoo!”
The Administrator appeared, cutting through space, and burst into admiration as she looked at Kang Jun-hyeok.
“As expected! I knew you would win! But to think you’d eliminate all 99 people by yourself! Wow. Even I was surprised by this!”
“I’m glad if you’re satisfied.”
“Satisfied and then some!”
She laughed heartily and patted Kang Jun-hyeok’s shoulder.
“It’s not over yet, but you won’t find results like this anywhere else, right? The other guys will be jealous too. Very good. You’re my pride, Kang Jun-hyeok.”
Pitch-black eyes met Kang Jun-hyeok’s gaze.
“I’ll be counting on you ‘in the future’ too, okay?”
Kang Jun-hyeok knew better than anyone the meaning contained in those words. He nodded.
“I’ll be counting on you in the future as well.”
The Administrator grinned.
At the same time, the Labyrinth closed.
[The Quest has ended. Please take a 3-day rest. After that, settlement will proceed and you will return to Earth.]
Kang Jun-hyeok returned to the amusement park.
There were 99 players there, the ones he had eliminated.
Kang Jun-hyeok said lightly.
“This is the second time I’m saying this to all of you. Hello?”
* * *
Hello.
The moment they heard those words, they reflexively flinched. It was the first thing Kang Jun-hyeok had said when he encountered them.
Everyone quietly looked at Kang Jun-hyeok, not daring to open their mouths carelessly.
What level of power did he possess?
What level had he reached?
They had all witnessed it.
He was literally on a different level.
It wasn’t just a step or two ahead. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he was ten steps ahead. Though they were all top-tier players, they couldn’t help but feel the wall between them.
But there was one person.
Even so, there was someone who hadn’t been broken yet.
Trey gritted his teeth and stood before Kang Jun-hyeok.
“…I request a duel.”
[Trey Dice requests a duel with Kang Jun-hyeok.]
Despite experiencing a crushing defeat, there was fighting spirit in his eyes. A firm will to prove himself was visible.
Kang Jun-hyeok laughed pleasantly.
“Good. But I don’t intend to give lessons for free.”
[Kang Jun-hyeok requests a duel with Trey Dice.]
[Duel stakes: 500 Gold that Trey Dice possesses.]
“Five hundred gold for one duel. Will you accept?”
“I accept.”
“In that case.”
Trey drew his sword. Kang Jun-hyeok responded in kind.
Kuwoong!
Kang Jun-hyeok no longer held back. Trey was defeated in just 10 seconds.
But even so, he stood up without being broken.
“Again. Again…!”
[Trey Dice requests a duel with Kang Jun-hyeok.]
[Duel stakes: 500 Gold that Trey Dice possesses.]
Kang Jun-hyeok nodded his head.
Trey repeated the cycle of losing and challenging again. The expressions of the other Players watching him gradually changed.
“…Mr. Kang Jun-hyeok. May I also request a duel?”
“No. I’m first!”
“Please let me as well!”
Fighting against a powerhouse who handled Trey Dice like a child. There was no opportunity like this to be found anywhere else. Realizing this fact, they competed to request duels with Kang Jun-hyeok.
Kang Jun-hyeok welcomed them.
“As long as you pay the price, I don’t mind at all.”
The duels between Kang Jun-hyeok and the Players began.
Countless people repeated the cycle of challenging him and losing.
In that process, they realized something.
They weren’t impressive at all.
They merely obtained and handled what was given to them while climbing the Tower.
The techniques, Divine Power, magic, and even Internal Energy that Kang Jun-hyeok possessed. They had none of it. Some of them had special stats, but they were at a level where they couldn’t even utilize them properly.
They realized the fact that they were weak.
Their confidence as top-tier Players crumbled away.
Kang Jun-hyeok watched this scene quietly.
Most of these people would have climbed the Tower with strong confidence only to die meaninglessly.
They had passed by things they could have obtained if they had just paid a little more attention.
‘I wonder if it might be even slightly different this time?’
The duels were good for him too. As many Players challenged him, Gold accumulated substantially. It was enough to immediately purchase Advanced Skills once he returned.
“I’m next!”
“No. I am!”
They competed to challenge Kang Jun-hyeok.
Yu Jin-ha looked at this scene with a disgusted expression.
“Everyone’s really strange people.”
To voluntarily want to go through such hardship. Yu Jin-ha couldn’t understand it at all.
But it was a good thing. If those people dealt with Kang Jun-hyeok, he could live comfortably. It was when Yu Jin-ha was trying to sneak away and hide.
“Yu Jin-ha. If you don’t want to die, you come too.”
“I, I don’t have any Gold though?”
“It’s fine. I won’t take anything from you specially.”
Kang Jun-hyeok said with a cheerful laugh. Yu Jin-ha made a tearful expression.
“…Yes.”
