Only I Have Two Towers Episode 262
About Darkness
Seira gazed up at the sky.
A pitch-black line drawn from the ground to high in the heavens.
It’s been a while.
Since I felt something was beautiful while looking at a line drawn by another.
She slowly moved her gaze along the line.
Tehalram, who had appeared with tremendous force, was currently split in two.
Along the line, very cleanly.
Whoooosh…!
Yoo Jin-hyeok, the master sheathing the sword he had swung at the end of the line.
Was it because of the moonlight pouring from the sky and the figure of the reaper positioned behind him?
It was a majesty that made one quickly forget about Tehalram who had appeared just moments ago.
The corners of Seira’s mouth moved faintly.
She had just unconsciously measured the length of the line drawn once more.
Because she couldn’t be certain at once.
Whether her current self could draw such a line.
Words she had heard once came to mind.
-I’m a successful master.
Sudden self-praise without rhyme or reason.
Young Seira had tilted her head with question marks floating above it.
-Isn’t the disciple following behind so frighteningly fast that I’m still swinging my sword diligently even now? Who raised such a disciple? It’s me! Kuhahaha!!
The master had said this while devoting himself to training even more earnestly than his disciple Seira.
Back then she was too young and thought her already strange master had finally lost his mind.
Now she felt she understood the meaning of those words, even if just a little.
‘…I need to work harder.’
She clenched her fist and made a resolution.
To increase her training intensity even more and accelerate her growth.
And at this very moment, in the air of the 85th floor of the Tower of Despair.
Shiver!
Jinhyeok, who had been leisurely sheathing his sword, trembled.
What was this? This tremendous chill?!
Wondering if Tehalram had come back to life, he turned around.
‘No.’
Tehalram, split in half and falling toward the glacier.
Though I did it myself, it was cut quite straight and prettily.
Timing it right, I swung the Ten Thousand Year Cold Iron toward the ground to create repulsive force.
At the same time, I completed equipping Hermes’ Shoes.
I finished a safe and comfortable landing and straightened my body.
‘Perfect, just perfect.’
Of course, the excellence only went that far.
Kuuuuuuung!!
Focused on my landing, I had momentarily overlooked the fall of the damn huge Tehalram.
Tehalram crashed into the glacier, creating a massive shockwave.
I drove my sword into the glacier and lowered my stance.
Since its body was so large, the shockwave was no joke either.
“Commander…”
Whoosh!
I drew a question mark.
Something just brushed past me to the side… Kancheoooo!!!
After watching with a dumbfounded expression for a moment.
Kancheo, who had respawned under my clothes, poked his head out.
“I almost became an ice yodeler.”
Even the fluffy Kancheo, who was strong against cold, seemed to find the current glacier tough.
Icicles hung from the tips of his fur here and there.
I brushed them off with a rustle and quickly entered Camilla’s barrier.
“What are you doing, Momo! Hurry up and light a campfire! You can’t just keep cutting scales all day!”
“Got it!!”
The thunderous scolding of the Yodel Ranger vice-commander.
Momo jumped up and pulled out a magical engineering torch.
Dark quickly snatched away the chubby one.
Thank goodness.
The sailboat almost got burned at the stake.
“Te, Tehalram…!”
“Ohhh… Apostle!”
“Tehalram has fallen!”
The believers clasped their hands together, knelt down, and began reciting prayers.
Judging by how much louder they were than usual, they seemed greatly moved.
“Then let’s melt the ice and go again… Wait a minute.”
I was about to depart but narrowed my eyes.
Whether it was true or not, Tehalram was called the first sea creature or remnant of judgment.
In other words, a sacred friend.
Moreover, judging by category alone, it resembled a giant eel, so couldn’t we eat it?
“Teacher Momo.”
I put my arm around his chubby shoulders.
“What what! What are you trying to say!”
“Shall we try eating that?”
Momo made an ‘ugh’ expression.
“It looks like an earthworm! It’ll probably taste completely awful!”
Come to think of it, I hadn’t fed my friends grilled eel yet.
I whispered explanations about how oily and savory eel was, and how good it was for the body.
“Mm! Momo completely understands!”
Momo nodded solemnly and took tiny steps forward.
“Wait just a little! Tonight’s dinner is grilled eel!”
Momo tried to run out but fell flat on his bottom.
“Kyaaah! My feet are freezing!”
Ah right. The Thousand-Year Glacier.
I quickly got a talisman from Camilla and put it in Momo’s clothes.
A barrier that wrapped around according to body size.
“Mm! Completely good!”
Had it been about 3 minutes since Mohwang ran out again?
Tehalram, which had been shrinking like a deflating balloon, completely disappeared.
Belia and the believers watched the scene in bewilderment.
It was already surprising that Tehalram was defeated, but now they were going to eat it.
For them, it was a flow of thought they absolutely couldn’t follow.
“Return complete!”
After giving Momo a thumbs up, I looked at Dark.
Dark took a deep breath and then withdrew the Thousand-Year Glacier.
The sailboat that had been stopped began flowing again, and the Immortal started getting seasick once more.
And not long after, the alarm I had been waiting for was heard.
Ding!

[You obtain byproducts from the defeated divine monsters!]

A pleased smile formed on my face.
Yoo Su-yeon had been looking dejected about the insufficient supply of attribute materials.
She’ll probably be happy if I bring these to her.
I should give the enhancement blueprint to Grandpa Toto or Rudo… no, Grandfather Ruwolpeu.
“Grrrr.”
As I was stretching refreshingly, I felt a burning gaze.
Immortal Dark, who hadn’t died but had certainly reached somewhere close to it.
He swallowed dry saliva as I quickly pressed the exit button.
Let me free Dark from this hell.
[Exiting Enhanced Tower of Despair 85th Floor!]
A single note left on the table.
# Rest well. Goodbye.
A brief single line was left behind.
“He’s gone.”
Ellia, who had been sipping tea, shrugged her shoulders.
“The chimera in the barrier did tell me, but he seemed to want to leave quietly so I pretended not to know?”
“Good job. I wonder if he’s fully recovered his strength.”
“Hmph! He became super energetic with my special potion? Plus even though he left suddenly, he took everything properly.”
She said he took everything without missing a thing – the spare potion bundle I told him to take before leaving, and the Korean food Beila had prepared.
Roche’s gourmet meals and recovery won’t be a worry for a while.
“Speaking of which!”
Ellia opened a thick ancient book.
“Translation complete?”
“Ooooh!!”
The Jin-Kanmo trio leaned forward eagerly toward the table.
Among them, the Kanmo duo dropped out in less than 10 seconds.
The squiggly letters looked completely boring to them.
“Race to the swimming pool, Momo!”
“Okay!”
Kancheo and Momo burst through the door and ran toward the swimming pool.
Taking advantage of the quiet moment, I quickly examined the ancient book.
“Dark Entity.”
Ellia nodded and began to speak.
“This entire book is about that entity? More precisely, it’s about various attempts and efforts to awaken it.”
I slowly turned the pages of the ancient book while listening to Ellia’s explanation.
As expected of the Star Alchemist!
She had translated every single line in detail without omission, making it perfectly readable.
Led by Mortarion, the necromancer of the century, countless others had tried to awaken this entity.
The Dark Entity, called the Devourer of Light or the Adversary of Light.
At first I naturally thought it would be a necromancer, but it seems I need to broaden the scope a bit.
“This entity suppressed the infinite divine light, but when its strength waned, it could not withstand the concentrated assault of light that poured forth and disappeared into an inescapable abyss. Those who revered the light called this entity the Apostate.”
The suppressed infinite divine light… Azriel, the divine being of the sacred lineage who spoke to me through the System.
For some reason, this passage brings him to mind.
“It seems like this Dark Entity is probably our next friend.”
“Looks that way?”
As if to prove this was correct, after finishing reading the entire ancient book.
Ding!
[You have completely read an unidentified ancient book related to the Dark Entity!]
[Mythic Tower 23rd Floor changes to ‘Seven Deadly Sins, Altar of Sloth and Gluttony’!]
[Entry conditions updated! To enter the 23rd Floor, you need the ‘Cult’s Key’!]
Gulp!
Suddenly the Seven Deadly Sins – something incredible has appeared.
When our eyes met, Ellia shrugged her shoulders.
“The next friend seems quite extraordinary?”
“A demon of sloth and gluttony?!”
“We have a dokkaebi and Satan as our friends, so there’s no rule saying a demon can’t appear?”
“That’s not Satan, that’s a Yodel.”
“To me, he’s Satan?”
Relatively speaking, that might be possible.
“By the way, master, where do we go to find this Cult’s Key? There aren’t really any clues in the book either.”
“It’s fine. We have a search specialist with us.”
I immediately got up and headed to the garden.
Then I took out the pouch containing dandelion seeds and the Yodel Compass from my inventory.
Let’s try searching once.
Where the key that will send us to the altar is located.
