All Master of 100 Floors Episode 066
11th Floor. True Ancestor (3)
Kang Jun-hyeok put force into the sword that had pierced through.
His internal energy had hit rock bottom. Manbyeonggi’s Divine Art already had high consumption costs, and with his pitiful internal energy stats, it was only natural. He could no longer use any more divine techniques.
But it didn’t matter. His opponent’s consumption had been far greater. Most importantly, he still had a joker card left.
[Instant Acceleration.]
All speeds accelerated. He drew his dagger, stabbed it into the neck and slashed. He drew his great sword, pierced the thigh and cut the waist.
In an instant, he butchered Kashan’s entire body. Kashan tried to resist, but having used True Blood, he couldn’t properly draw out his strength.
“Eeeeek!”
He tried to burst forth with power in desperation to send Kang Jun-hyeok flying far away, but even that couldn’t be achieved.
[Balance.]
Kang Jun-hyeok’s flying body came to an abrupt stop. He drew his sword and once again plunged it into the heart.
“Gueok!”
In an instant, Kashan’s life force hit rock bottom. Kashan, who had been struggling, realized it. That he had been defeated. That he would die here.
He burst into hollow laughter.
“Ha, hahahaha! To meet death at the hands of a mere, mere human who isn’t even my niece! Is this the karma of my bloodline!”
“It’s nothing like that, so just die.”
He drew his dagger again and plunged it into the neck. Kashan suddenly raised his hand and grabbed Kang Jun-hyeok’s head.
“I acknowledge defeat. But I need a companion for the journey! Let’s go together!”
Kashan’s eyes turned black. Pitch-black blood rose up menacingly. Kang Jun-hyeok hastily raised his shield.
Kuuuuuung!
An explosion erupted. A massive explosion that collapsed the passage and completely blew away the door.
Kang Jun-hyeok’s body was buried deep into the ground.
“Cough.”
A fierce impact shook his body. He checked his health with a groan.
[41/570]
“…Huh.”
That was close.
If he hadn’t reflexively raised his shield, he really would have died.
“Damn strong.”
Even he, who far exceeded the category of ordinary Players, had to overcome life-threatening crises multiple times. It was an opponent whose strength couldn’t be expressed in words.
But the reward was just as substantial.
[Level Up.]
[Level Up.]
[Health + 70]
[Strength + 3]
[Speed + 2]
[Internal Energy + 4]
[Achievement + 1]
[ Divine Technique proficiency has increased.]
[ Mental Cultivation Method proficiency has increased.
[Stealth proficiency…]
System windows appeared in a cascade. Kang Jun-hyeok smiled slightly.
His level had increased by 2. Moreover, his stats had risen by very high values, and the proficiency of numerous skills had increased.
The stronger the enemy defeated, the greater the reward. This was the Tower’s basic principle.
“Even after fighting like this, the Divine Technique and Mental Cultivation Method proficiency didn’t increase significantly.”
[As entertainment, it was decent enough to watch, but immature. Did you think you could become proficient in my martial arts to that extent?]
“How demanding.”
Kang Jun-hyeok groaned.
“This place!”
“The Princess is here!”
The voices of werewolves could be heard beyond the collapsed door. They must have identified the location after hearing the commotion. Dozens of them were entering the passage all at once.
But from here on, it was no longer his concern. Everything was already over.
Wooooong.
From inside the altar, an intense wave resonated.
At the same time, a massive presence began to be felt. An extraordinary presence that filled the entire forest.
“It’s finished.”
Eldyria’s coming-of-age ceremony was complete.
Kang Jun-hyeok waited to return to Earth.
However, no matter how long he waited, the system window announcing the end of the Quest did not appear. Confusion crossed Kang Jun-hyeok’s face.
The 11th Floor had ended immediately the moment Eldyria completed her ceremony.
That’s how it had been for his past life, and not only that, but for all players.
Yet now he was not returning to Earth.
When conditions were met but it didn’t end, there were two possibilities.
Either the Quest wasn’t finished.
Or there was still a reward to be received here.
“….”
[Breath Holding.]
Kang Jun-hyeok activated the skill. It was an action close to instinct and intuition. Soon the passage collapsed, and a woman revealed herself.
* * *
Step.
Quiet but majestic footsteps echoed.
Eldyria.
She revealed herself.
The youthful look had disappeared from her face, replaced by mature beauty.
This was the appearance of Eldyria from his previous life that Kang Jun-hyeok knew.
The miraculous vampire called the Progenitor’s reincarnation. A mighty Transcendent who survived until just before the universe’s destruction, fighting against and killing countless Victors.
Vampire Queen. Eldyria.
She had been born here and now.
Thousands of blood streams followed her around. It looked as if they were celebrating the birth of a rightful queen.
“Uh, uh…”
“Ugh.”
The Werewolves unconsciously became terrified. They realized she was an existence they couldn’t handle. Eldyria, who had been looking at them coldly, opened her mouth.
“Perish.”
Following the queen’s command, the blood streams moved. In an instant, the Werewolves became skewered. They screamed and struggled, resisting, but it was meaningless.
Dozens of Werewolves were annihilated in an instant.
And as if such creatures didn’t interest her, Eldyria waved her hand. The debris from the collapsed passage was cleared away, revealing Kang Jun-hyeok buried within.
“…”
Eldyria bit her lip.
Kang Jun-hyeok wasn’t breathing.
He had fought against her Uncle for her sake, resulting in mutual destruction.
The last remaining ally she had was dead.
She had become completely alone in this world.
“I could not trust you. I doubted and distrusted you, tried to push you away. Instead of doing that, I should have talked with you more and gotten to know you better.”
She lamented her own foolishness. Eldyria, who had been despairing, suddenly paused.
She could feel the flow of blood within Kang Jun-hyeok’s body. She hurriedly approached Kang Jun-hyeok.
She could feel the flow of blood, but he wasn’t breathing. It was a strange sight she had never seen before, but one thing was certain.
Kang Jun-hyeok was alive.
But at the same time, he was also half-dead. Eldyria, who was thinking about how to save him, recalled one method.
She looked down at Kang Jun-hyeok.
A loyal retainer who had risked his life fighting for her.
“…You said you didn’t want to become a vampire. That you liked being human. So I will ask for your forgiveness.”
She bit her lip.
“All of this is my selfishness of not wanting to be left alone.”
Blood flowed from within her lips. Not red blood, but black blood.
“Your complaints and grumbling. And even your anger. I will accept it all. I am your master.”
With those words, she lowered her posture.
Kang Jun-hyeok almost unconsciously opened his eyes.
Through his lips, he felt a moist sensation.
Eldyria had kissed him.
Blood flowed in through his lips. At the same time, a System Window appeared.
[11th Floor progression Quest cleared.]
[Compensation will be determined based on your performance.]
[Checking achievement rate…]
[Check complete.]
[Achievement rate: 100%]
[Perfect Clear. Congratulations! Additional compensation will be provided.]
[Floor 10 progression Quest achievement rate confirmed: 100%. Corresponding compensation will also be provided.]
[Upper Body Armor: You have obtained the True Ancestor’s Robe.]
[Lower Body Armor: You have obtained the True Ancestor’s Leather Pants.]
[Title: The effect of Perfect Player has been added.]
[6,351 Gold has been provided.]
[Perfect Clear reward [Active Skill: Royal Blood] has been obtained.]
[Perfect Clear reward [Title: Guardian] has been obtained.]
[Players who Perfect Cleared the 11th Floor: 1 person.]
[You are alone!]
[Universe announcement.]
[Please congratulate them! Everyone in the Universe! A Perfect Player of the 11th Floor has appeared. This is a feat no one has achieved until now!]
[Achievement + 7]
[Special reward [Ring: Ruby Ring] has been obtained.]
[The Defeated Ones are amazed by your Achievement.]
Kang Jun-hyeok returned to Earth. However, he couldn’t calmly check his rewards as usual.
“…What?”
He frowned.
* * *
[If my senses are correct, it seems Eldyria kissed you.]
“You’re probably right.”
[Insane.]
Manbyeonggi let out a hollow laugh. Even for him, it was a shocking event.
[That proud and haughty Eldyria kissed you? Those who know her would scoff if they heard this.]
“It’s only something from the past. The present has nothing to do with it.”
The Tower was a severed past timeline. Whatever happened there had no relation to the Universe.
[Theoretically, that would be true. But that Eldyria, the incomparably haughty Eldyria. Well, I’ll be. You live long enough to see everything.]
Kang Jun-hyeok was also quite surprised. The Eldyria he knew wasn’t someone who would give anyone more than friendly affection.
“Hmm.”
The Tower was a past timeline.
What happened there had nothing to do with the present.
But Eldyria was alive and breathing in the current universe.
Someday he would meet her again.
‘I’m going through all sorts of things.’
Still, it was something that happened inside the Tower anyway. It had nothing to do with her current self. He could just forget about it. Kang Jun-hyeok, who had forced himself to organize his thoughts, began checking his rewards.
[True Ancestor’s Robe]
[Part: Upper Body Armor]
[Grade: Intermediate]
[Strength + 2]
[Speed + 3]
[Defense + 8]
[A robe that only noble True Ancestors can wear. Made from the hide of a special beast and soaked in noble blood, it does not tear easily nor get dirty.]
[True Ancestor’s Leather Pants]
[Part: Lower Body Armor]
[Grade: Intermediate]
[Strength + 3]
[Speed + 2]
[Defense + 8]
[Leather pants that only noble True Ancestors can wear. Made from the hide of a special beast and soaked in noble blood, they do not tear easily nor get dirty.]
The basic rewards were upper and lower body armor.
Though they were called basic rewards, their value was definitely not low. The higher the clear rate, the better the basic rewards became.
5 stats and 8 defense. It was an amazing number. In his previous life, he had barely managed to get rewards this good only after the 20th Floor.
Next, he needed to check the Perfect Clear reward.
But Kang Jun-hyeok had something else to check first.
“…This is another reward I’m getting for the first time.”
[You have obtained Special Reward [Ring: Ruby Ring].]
Special reward.
He had never seen anything like this even in his previous life.
Kang Jun-hyeok touched the ring. A ring set with a dark red gemstone. Even at a glance, it was priceless.
It would be an excellent reward. But something felt unsettling. It felt as if something was binding him.
With slight unease, Kang Jun-hyeok examined the ring.
[Ruby Ring]
[Part: Ring]
[Grade: Superior]
[Health + 100]
[Strength + 4]
[Speed + 4]
[Defense + 5]
[Noble True Ancestor. A ring that Vampire Princess Eldyria’s father gave her in her childhood. Eldyria’s father told her: In the future, give this ring to the one who will become your husband.]
“…What?”
After reading the description, Kang Jun-hyeok’s face scrunched up.
