Only I Have Two Towers Episode 218

 

Declaration of War

 

The end of the ink drawing.

 

The dokkaebi faced countless Rakshasas.

 

And slowly began to be swallowed.

 

Into a massive mountain whose weight and size could not be measured.

 

[A human’s memory has ended!]

 

[You have cleared the 17th Floor of the Mythic Tower!]

 

[Entry condition for the 18th Floor of the Mythic Tower: Death of the Rakshasa Queen]

 

The ink that had been drawn in all directions disappeared.

 

The 17th floor returned to a pure white canvas once again.

 

Heavy silence flowed.

 

The early to mid-progression of the drawing was bright, warm, and simultaneously happy.

 

But the atmosphere changed from the mid-to-late part.

 

It was clearly an absurdly tragic sad ending feeling.

 

Jinhyeok and the Kanmo Duo broke out in cold sweat as they watched each other’s reactions.

 

Even the usually indifferent Dark and Seira remained silent for now.

 

Only Renia was perfectly fine as if nothing had happened.

 

“Hm?”

 

Had he finally noticed the strange silence?

 

Renia, who had been staring intently at Jinhyeok, opened his mouth.

 

“What’s wrong?”

 

“I was wondering when it would be okay to speak up.”

 

“Why?”

 

“It feels like we somehow peeked into someone’s sad memories?”

 

“Why would they be sad memories? Is it because I got sealed at the end?”

 

“Well… the children weren’t visible in the cave.”

 

I thought that might have been the trigger that ignited their already persistent bitter relationship.

 

That’s also why Renia had recklessly charged in.

 

“What are you imagining? Those guys just returned to the village. They probably lived full lives and passed away naturally.”

 

“Eh?”

 

“Ah?”

 

Exclamations burst out from all directions for a moment.

 

“What the heck is with this artist!! Drawing confusing pictures like that!”

 

“Aren’t you a Yodel?”

 

“I want to rip off those pointy ears!”

 

“Sorry.”

 

Jinhyeok let out a sigh of relief.

 

“Renia. Then why did the Rakshasas come looking for you?”

 

The Renia of that time was much stronger than now.

 

With such a clear difference in power, it didn’t make sense that he was defeated and sealed.

 

After thinking about something for a moment, Renia opened his mouth.

 

“I made a dokkaebi pact. They were also dokkaebis before becoming Rakshasas. The pact was that they wouldn’t touch that area while I stayed inside the mountain.”

 

“Gasp!!”

 

Kancheo and Jinhyeok covered their mouths.

 

To willingly get sealed to protect the children.

 

What a romantic dokkaebi this was.

 

“Romance approved! So cool!”

 

“Really.”

 

“Absolutely!”

 

Jinhyeok and Kancheo clapped like seals.

 

Even Momo, who didn’t understand what was happening, joined in clapping.

 

Then suddenly, one question crossed my mind.

 

“Then why didn’t you come out even after hundreds of years passed? The children were human, so it was enough time for them to live full lives.”

 

Renia crossed his arms and looked straight ahead.

 

Why was it?

 

I felt like cold sweat was flowing down the side of Renia’s head.

 

Jinhyeok snapped his fingers.

 

“You lost your horn, didn’t you?”

 

It must have hit the mark because Renia squeezed his eyes shut.

 

“I had hidden my horn to reassure the Rakshasas. I planned to retrieve it when the time came and break the seal.”

 

But the Sealed Mountain had broken off along with Kalik’s castle and entered the Mythic Tower.

 

Beyond the distance becoming greater, the dimensions themselves had been split apart.

 

From Renia’s perspective, it was truly a bolt from the blue.

 

‘It wasn’t that he didn’t come out, but that he couldn’t come out.’

 

I slowly nodded and closed my mouth.

 

Let’s not torment Renia any further.

 

“Kek!”

 

Of course, Dark didn’t seem to have any such intention.

 

“Are you laughing while looking at me?”

 

At the familiar pattern about to unfold once again.

 

[Exiting the 17th Floor of the Mythic Tower!]

 

I quickly escaped from the tower.

 

Anyway, the children lived well and Renia was freed, so it’s a happy ending.

 

“Mmmmph.”

 

I stretched and looked around.

 

The beautiful night view of Seoul visible below.

 

It’s a nice place no matter when I visit.

 

‘The Ranjets are running hard.’

 

I checked the Yodel Compass.

 

They seemed to be riding something.

 

Their speed had increased compared to earlier.

 

Crack crack.

 

I loosened my neck a couple of times and turned around.

 

“Let’s go home.”

 

My body had become drowsy from running around so much.

 

I should get some sleep.

 

“Are we running again?!”

 

“No. Let’s take a taxi. Ellia. When can you make another frog? I want to keep one at home too. If there’s room, I’d like to put one in Yesan as well.”

 

“This friend has many functions, so it takes some time, you know? More than anything, material supply is the problem. But!”

 

Ellia spun around once and smiled.

 

“I’m a great alchemist who has lived for over 3,000 years, you see. I’ve thought of a better method.”

 

“Ooh?”

 

“For execution.”

 

Ellia prostrated herself in front of Momo.

 

“I need a black dragon’s organ! Teacher Daemomo!”

 

Ellia sent glances as if telling me to help my master too.

 

I lay down beside her and bowed my head.

 

“Momo-sensei!”

 

Was it because even Jinhyeok had joined in?

 

“Uuuum. Can’t be helped. Momo is the great teacher after all.”

 

Momo took out three or four ice boxes from the Infinite Warehouse.

 

The eyes, lungs, and liver of the black dragon Drakkan.

 

“Yahoo!”

 

Ellia, excited, grabbed the boxes and went into the Starry Forge.

 

Before closing the workshop door, Ellia poked her head out.

 

“With such amazing eyeballs, I’ll be able to create something with much better performance, you know? You can look forward to it.”

 

The door closed with a snap and Ellia disappeared from sight.

 

This was the first time.

 

The first time Ellia had told him to look forward to something.

 

It seemed like a good work would come out.

 

“Let’s really go.”

 

He pressed the elevator button.

 

Go down normally.

 

Take a taxi home normally.

 

The next morning.

 

“Wudadadadadada!!”

 

A tremendous sound could be heard.

 

Three people looked toward the source of the sound with blank faces.

 

“Wow, that’s incredible.”

 

“R-right?”

 

Cold sweat ran down Jin Seo-hee and Yoo Su-yeon’s backs.

 

Momo had started putting on a spurt as soon as they taught her how to do it.

 

She was handling work that would take a dozen people all by herself.

 

Jinhyeok wore an extremely proud expression.

 

As expected of the Momo Emperor.

 

“We should be finished by this afternoon.”

 

“That’s right. We were rushing thinking it would be tomorrow night or the day after. Wow? Jinhyeok, you’re doing well too.”

 

“I’m working hard even though I’m slow!”

 

The two people who had to go to work at the Auction House at noon.

 

They couldn’t just leave everything to her and play around.

 

They had to get as much done as possible before coming back from work.

 

“Seo-hee, Suyeon. Stop and have a meal. You need to get ready for work.”

 

“A meal?”

 

Jinhyeok took the two to the kitchen and opened the pot lid.

 

“I prepared spicy pork kimchi stew.”

 

“Wow! Did you make this, Jinhyeok?”

 

“Of course. I’m confident in soy sauce egg rice, kimchi fried rice, and kimchi stew.”

 

The essential three sacred weapons of living alone.

 

In this at least, he wasn’t inferior to Teacher Momo.

 

“The bright red color looks really appetizing.”

 

“Food is something you eat with your eyes first, after all. Then please eat comfortably. Momo and I will do a bit more and then eat.”

 

“Thank you for the meal!”

 

“I’ll eat well.”

 

After giving them a thumbs up, he came out to the living room.

 

“Wudawudawudadadadadada!”

 

He swallowed dry saliva.

 

Indeed, the Momo Emperor’s super booster mode.

 

Less than 5 minutes had passed since he went into the kitchen and came out.

 

Something had changed a lot.

 

‘It’s getting completed.’

 

He looked around the house with a happy smile.

 

Compared to when the pigs had infiltrated, it had changed to be much more cozy and sophisticated.

 

‘As expected, remodeling is all about sense.’

 

While he was nodding.

 

Momo, who had reached right next to him, raised her head.

 

“Hurry up and finish so we can eat!”

 

“S-sorry.”

 

He continued working under Teacher Daemomo’s guidance for a while.

 

Poke poke poke poke poke poke.

 

He felt a touch around his waist.

 

“Kancheo? Why aren’t you playing in the swimming pool?”

 

“I followed the delicious smell as if enchanted and ended up here.”

 

A loud rumbling sound could be heard.

 

This couldn’t be stopped even in stealth mode.

 

“As expected, my kimchi stew is dangerous. Wait just a bit. I made a huge amount.”

 

“Can I eat the whole pot?”

 

“I’ll put it in the yodel pot you brought last time.”

 

“Very good. I’ll lie down on the sofa for a bit. Swimming made me tired.”

 

Kancheo jumped onto the sofa, leaving wet footprints.

 

It was understandable that he’d be tired.

 

He’d been swimming non-stop from dawn until now.

 

He’d have to feed him until his sunken belly became full.

 

While speeding up again to follow Momo.

 

Ding!

 

A message box appeared.

 

It was different from usual.

 

A red color that seemed to indicate some kind of dangerous alert.

 

Text began to fill inside it.

 

[The Rakshasas, a race that has been crouching in hiding for a long time.]

 

[They break their long silence and reveal themselves!]

 

[In 72 hours, a new hidden floor ‘Fortress of Rakshasa’ will be revealed!]

 

[The Fortress of Rakshasa is an impregnable fortress that has never once been conquered!]

 

[Entry conditions: Clear 80th Floor of Tower of Despair / Obtain key to the fortress]

 

Ding!

 

[The floor’s grade is set to Legendary! The entry conditions are merely minimum qualifications – those who are unprepared will meet certain death!]

 

[Only one player at a time can enter the hidden floor! An entry queue will be created in 72 hours!]

 

[Clear condition: Defeat the 1st Evil Baikan somewhere in the fortress!]

 

He frowned.

 

1st Evil Baikan? Not the Queen?

 

Yoo Su-yeon and Jin Seo-hee came running out holding their rice bowls.

 

It seemed the message had been sent to all players.

 

“Jinhyeok, did you see that just now?!”

 

“Yes. It’s quite a menacing message window.”

 

“Suyeon and I can’t go right away because of the floor restriction, but there’s going to be quite a commotion.”

 

“That’s right. The whole world will be in an uproar. Excuse me for a moment.”

 

He went upstairs and took out Ranjets’ frozen arm from his bag.

 

He couldn’t take it out in front of people who were eating.

 

Just like yesterday, the distance was steadily increasing.

 

That meant it was still in this world.

 

There are two possibilities.

 

Either 72 hours haven’t passed yet so they don’t belong to the Tower yet.

 

Or Ranjets wasn’t personnel meant to enter the Tower in the first place.

 

The latter is a possibility I thought of from the part where the clear condition isn’t the Queen.

 

“Renia. What do you think? In my opinion, this Queen bastard.”

 

The corners of my mouth went up.

 

“Seems like they quietly slipped away.”

 

Maredo collected souls in the Tower of Despair.

 

In the end they failed after being cleared, but souls that would have been sent somewhere if things had gone according to plan.

 

If that destination is the Queen in the real world, then today’s clear condition makes sense too.

 

They just want to comfortably receive and devour everything.

 

Without taking any risks.

 

“She was originally a cowardly bitch. Never shows herself. How fitting.”

 

“That means.”

 

I shifted my gaze to the Yodel Compass.

 

Ranjets moving diligently somewhere.

 

It means it’s still valid.

 

Compared to the Trojan Horse, our somewhat clumsy Ranjets Horse’s role is.

 

“Where will we hit first?”

 

“Wherever we can go first.”

 

Either when Ranjets arrives somewhere and stops moving.

 

Or when conditions are met to enter the Fortress of Rakshasa.

 

I plan to go according to the situation.

 

“It’s a matter of order, but I’ll smash both sides.”

 

“I like that.”

 

I took out the Soul Harvester.

 

I intend to feed it well without missing this opportunity.

 

All the souls that the Rakshasas possess, that is.
