Only I Have Two Towers Episode 235
Transcendent Ring
[Greedy Collector Momo’s unique trait ‘Rights Seizure’ activates!]
[The rights to the ancient tome possessed by the Necromancer of the Century are transferred from the Tower of Despair to Player Yoo Jin-hyeok!]
‘Tower, thanks for your hard work.’
After leaving a brief greeting, I received the mysterious ancient tome.
I carefully flipped through it, but it was full of unreadable characters.
The fact that auto-translation doesn’t work proves it’s not a language from our world.
“Seuuuuup! Elliaaaaa!!”
Perhaps because I requested help for the second time.
Friends from Solarium began manifesting one by one.
“Master, you called… Ooh?!”
She must have noticed what I was holding.
Ellia rushed over and peered around the ancient tome.
“It’s a really old ancient tome? It smells like treasure?”
“Sharp eye? Teacher Daemomo picked this as the best one. What do you think? Can you read it?”
“Ahem!”
After clearing her throat, Ellia spun around to show off.
“Who do you think I am? Give it here.”
“As expected of the Star Alchemist!”
I carefully handed over the ancient tome.
After boldly opening the book for a moment.
Ellia rubbed her chin.
“Hmm. Hm?! Hmmm.”
As Ellia made strange humming sounds, I carefully spoke up.
“You can’t read it.”
“You caught me? But there’s no need to despair? There’s nothing I can’t interpret.”
Ellia gave a thumbs up and opened the workshop door.
Objects came pouring out through the open door.
Just how messily stacked must things be for this to happen?
No, where and how does she even make potions in the first place?!
While various question marks floated in my mind.
Ellia, who had been buried and picking through things, straightened up.
“Good, good. Found it.”
“Oh? The characters look similar to what’s written in the ancient tome? What book is that?”
“Roughly ancient characters that ancestor necromancers used in encrypted form? Even necromancers from a certain era onward don’t know them?”
Encrypted ancient characters.
It sounds so impressive that I can’t help but snort with excitement.
Moreover, since Teacher Daemomo verified it as the best, it must be no ordinary item.
“Then I’ll leave it to you, Ellia.”
“Just leave it to me? Just bring me meals regularly. Oh, tea and coffee too. Sweet desserts would be nice too.”
“I’ll bring them diligently.”
After giving another thumbs up, Ellia slipped into the Star Forge.
The door wouldn’t close and she was struggling, so I pushed it from outside.
Thud!
As soon as the door closed, I went back to Momo.
I didn’t speak to her.
Teacher Daemomo is currently in super concentration mode.
Step step.
I looked at Kancheo who walked over beside me.
“Kancheo.”
“Yodel Ranger Vice-Captain Kancheo!”
“Why is your fur all pulled and torn like this?”
Kancheo shook his head as if there was no answer.
It seems a lot happened.
“While firing the heavy machine gun, Momo grabbed my ears like a joystick and pulled them around.”
“Kancheo moved the gun barrel accordingly.”
“If I didn’t move, she pulled as if she’d pluck them out. Captain, are my ears okay? One might have been pulled out.”
“Completely fine. Don’t worry.”
I quickly tidied up the fur sticking out in all directions.
His perky ears were properly matted from being pulled so much.
When we return, I’ll need to take care of them with nutritional supplements.
“Good! I’ve taken everything!”
Momo stood up abruptly and wiped her forehead.
I quickly bent down to examine what she had extracted from Mortarion.
Two rings and one strangely shaped orb.
Ding!
[You have obtained the Necromancer’s Ring ‘Soul Veritas’! / Grade: Unique / Level Limit: 100]
# Mana Increase: 100.
# Unique Skill: Inquiry.
## Forces souls to answer.
## Souls cannot refuse and cannot tell lies.
# Can be used outside the Tower of Despair.
[You have obtained the Ring of Authority ‘Death Mandate’! / Grade: Transcendent / Level Limit: 1]
# This is the ring that made Mortarion the Necromancer of the Century.
# There were many with necromancer abilities superior to Mortarion.
# But they could never defeat Mortarion.
# Unique Skill: Absolute Command.
## Commands forced death to undead-type beings.
## No matter whose undead they are or how they were revived, none can resist the authority of Absolute Command.
## As it is a mighty authority, each use brings a powerful curse of corrosion.
# Can be used outside the Tower of Despair.
I placed my hand on my startled heart.
Soul Veritas was understandable.
But at the next item, I couldn’t help but rub my eyes.
After blinking a couple times, I checked the item description once more.
Transcendeeeent!?!?
I didn’t read it wrong.
I really hit the jackpot.
And it can even be used outside the tower.
I took a deep breath and checked the item options.
Level limit 1 with no additional mana.
The one attached unique skill is ridiculous.
To sentence all undead to forced death.
It was an item that would make necromancer classes worldwide have seizures.
If put up for auction, it would probably fetch an astronomical price.
Both necromancers and those who have to face necromancers would foam at the mouth and rush for it.
Of course.
‘Yeah, not selling it.’
I have absolutely no intention of selling it.
He quickly equipped it.
[Transcendent grade ring Death Mandate will bind upon equipping. Binding will be released upon wearer’s death. Do you wish to equip it?]
Equip!
[Death Mandate is now bound to Player Yoo Jin-hyeok!]
[You can now use the authority ‘Absolute Command’!]
[Upon use, a terrible curse of corruption will take hold! To wield this power, you must endure unimaginable pain!]
Unless you’re a skeletal necromancer like Mortarion, this ring isn’t easy to use.
Each time you use it, your flesh would rot away.
He extended his hand forward.
[Absolute Command]
Ding!
As soon as he used it, a blood-red message window appeared.
[A powerful curse of corruption takes hold!]
Of course, in less than a second.
Ding!
[All Status Abnormality Resistance SSS+ activates! You are immune to the curse!]
The curse of corruption was deflected.
A satisfied smile spread across his lips.
He had to praise himself once again.
His own judgment in choosing this trait among various options.
Ah, and also Master Seira’s advice that had eliminated his worries in one stroke.
‘I don’t need mana right now anyway.’
After gauging the options, he walked over to Camilla, who was puffing smoke.
“Camilla. How about this ring?”
“Hm? Why aren’t you using it, Master?”
“I’m not skilled enough in alchemy to need mana yet. And the options seem like a perfect match for Camilla.”
“Hoho.”
Camilla examined the ring and nodded.
“An interesting ring indeed. I’ll use it well.”
After giving a thumbs up, he examined the last item.
No matter how he looked at it, he couldn’t figure out what this was for.
The system’s description was also vague.
[Unidentified Orb]
# An orb that escaped from somewhere.
# An unknown power dwells within it.
# To understand its function, appraisal by a skilled appraiser is required.
From unidentified ancient books to orbs.
Perhaps because he was a necromancer who had lived for so long, he had coughed up many strange things.
‘Hmm. I wonder which of the two it could be.’
The unique skill Card Finder, acquired after reaching Collector grade rare.
Card Finder had informed him that traces of the next card existed in The Final Siege of Saintland.
So far, there hadn’t been anything particularly noteworthy.
He suspected he might find it in either the ancient book or the orb.
“I haven’t tried the assault rifle yet.”
Kancheo was touching the gun regretfully.
Still, perhaps because he had fired the heavy machine gun to his heart’s content.
He looked like he had properly relieved his stress.
He dusted off his hands, stood up, and looked around at his friends.
“We’ve cleared the floor, but we still have an important mission left.”
“Since we cleared it, now we’re going to bring down the castle too?!”
He swallowed dry saliva as he looked at Kancheo.
As expected, the smallest but most frightening friend.
“Remember the things we threw and placed here and there?”
“Hwanggrrrr!!!”
Momo, who reacted first, snorted.
“How were the statues we placed around Solarium?”
Seira shook her head.
“The Deathfog came right up to the vicinity. The golden statues absorbed it, so there was no damage.”
Swish!
Still, it was too early to give up hope.
“Most of them are probably contaminated and unusable, but there should be some intact ones. Let’s search thoroughly and take whatever we can. Even a little bit.”
“We have to take them! Gold is super expensive!”
These days, gold prices are skyrocketing.
They couldn’t miss even a single don.
“Alright! Let’s go! Golden excavation team!”
“Wooooh!”
“Let’s go!”
They seemed to be getting excited.
Kancheo and Momo were reacting more enthusiastically than anyone and taking the lead.
As he was about to follow, a hand was placed on his shoulder.
“You’re getting stronger day by day, Master.”
Seira was looking at the undead corpses still remaining.
Being a master swordsman, she had immediately noticed.
That the battle here had been utterly one-sided.
That everyone had been cut down with a single clean sword strike.
“Of course I have to get stronger. I’m receiving teachings from an excellent master.”
Why was it?
He had definitely thought of teachings, but only memories of being beaten with a wooden sword passed by like a panorama.
Seira shook her head.
“Not being impatient and silently accepting teachings is also an innate talent. It seems I no longer need to worry about Master.”
“That won’t do.”
“Hm?”
He pulled Seira’s arm and grasped it tightly with both hands.
“I want you to always worry about me, anytime, anywhere. If it seems dangerous, come rescue me right away!”
He was serious.
He still only had one life.
He needed care.
A bright smile spread across Seira’s lips.
“Master’s need is a knight’s great joy. I will always watch over you. Unchanged from the beginning.”
“Good, good.”
He linked arms with her, gave a thumbs up, and started walking.
Let’s hurry and go too.
To pick up gold.
Seoul Central Player Hunter Bureau.
Everyone stared into space with dumbfounded faces.
What on earth had happened?
There were still three or four hours left until Mortarion, the necromancer of the century, would arrive.
Although time had been flowing faster at some point, it was still before the timeout.
For some reason, the system had begun announcing on a large scale.
The clearing of the unique floor, The Final Siege of Saintland.
“Uh… This is cleared now, right?”
“They’re saying it’s cleared, but… did it even start? The battle?”
Yun Mi-ri, who had been typing on the keyboard, brought up the Tower Site.
“The Pantheon just updated. From the 74th Floor to the 80th Floor, all SSS+. It seems the battle ended normally.”
“That means.”
Cheon Se-yeon and Jin Yun-ho looked at each other’s faces.
This pointed to one thing.
Runner Yoo Jin-hyeok had finished it off before it could even properly begin.
The necromancer of the century and his Immortal Army, no less.
Just as they were about to let out hollow laughs.
Ding!
A new message appeared.
And everyone couldn’t help but lose their words.
The content was that completely unexpected.
