Chapter 28 - 1st floor ?

Chapter 28: Chapter 28 - 1st floor ?

The teacher look at us and told "ok you can now enter to the toweri wish all of you the good luck because you need it"

So we went closer to tower and a massage pops up in front of me

[ do you wish to enter to the tower of ascension

Yes/No ]

I pressed "yes"

And it came again

[ Do you wish to enter alone or with a party ]

[ solo | duo | squad or more ]

I chose the duo this is like a game when i’m at in slum i saw many kids playing those fancy game i only can watch but i learned how that works

Then a long list of name came to me who near by to me

And i chose the nyx name without hesitation and nyx told me she got the request and she accepted it

And i saw nyx name appear beside me

And got a another massage

[ do you wish to enter to the first floor ]

[ yes/no ]

I look at nyx and ask "what do you think are you ready to go to the first floor"

I love to play prank at her and annoy her but this is life and death even give me hundred gut I won’t do anything in this moment

She look at my serious face and a small smile appears on her face and said "ok let’s go all or nothing"

I smiled at that and i pressed the yes button

And my vision went black for several moments and i appeared a whole different location

I look around and nyx is beside me and i got a massage again

[ welcome to the tower ]

[ your fist task : protect the energy orb from monsters]

[ monster count : 0/100 ]

[ monster release time: 1 hour]

[ reward: will be evaluated by the performance of each player ]

I blinked and turned to nyx "hey nyx are you sure we came to a tower not a damm game"

She just as confused as me and said "we don’t have the time to wonder about them let’s go and check what we have to work on"

I nodded and we saw the massive energy crystal in the middle of the floor and we also saw there’s few box in the line so we went to take a look at those boxes and what we found in them make us gasps

"Hey nyx there’s loot here we can even a home and live here forever"

She said nothing and nodded "yha this thing must be here to protect the energy source"

I look at her with a deadpan expression "isn’t that obvious what did you really think those are for making a home for monsters and servers them tea when they come"

Nyx didn’t say anything she just glaer at me

So i take a big reinforce metal wall from the floor and went to the energy source and planted there and make sure it’s properly fixed

And nyx brought one to and she fixed it that connected to mine and we became builders

Then i look at nyx and said "how about we broke the other remaining walls and make spick from them and use them as traps"

Nyx eyes lid up and look at me and said "that a amazing idea"

Then nyx holds a wall and i gat out my sword and use force and coated it with fire and cut through the wall and make it as a spick and place it as a traps out side the hut we made"

We went around the hut and reported the process and as for remaining scraped we didn’t let them either we use them and make small spick and using my fire affinity i melt a Conner of the spick and place it the the hut outside and make spick walls

And said "now we are prepared for a monster wave" only thing we have to do is a put a door and close the hur we make

I look at nyx and said "who know we have to become a builder’s as well if i know i bring another student and make him do the labor"

A evil smile appears on my face but nyx poured a ice bucket and said "yha so you can sheared half of the loot you get"

I look at her with horror "no absolutely not these loot are mine my hard earned loot no we don’t need any hurry up and work"

She laughed and continued to work and we built a solid wall and i look at it and saw nyx bring out the last wall and i blinked

Once

Twice

Then i immediately run towards nyx "hey nyx are you dumb or something after you put that how are we gona enter to the inside and maek sure inside hava goid defaced"

Only then ahe realized she brings a another big wall to pu in

But i told her to bring that to and put it as a roof of the room we built and we bring more reinforced walls and make a complete house and i look ag nyx and mutter "hey we make and make and in the end we make a house without even noticing"

She nodded and she said "i saw there many boxes there let’s go and see them what if something useful we found"

I nodded and we went and look at the box and i hug the box "nyx come here we find treasure"

Nyx look surprised "a treasure the floor didn’t even start how there’s treasure already"

I didn’t gat her remarks and call her and show the treasurer i found

Ahe came and take a look and put a hand on her forehead "yha yha so this is the your so called treasurer those are just food"

I nodded with proud expression "Yha don’t look down on them these are treasure for me"

She sighed and look at me putting all of those in my space storage

And i look at nyx and said with a calm voice "if monsters havea monster core you can have them all"

She look at me her eyes widened she can’t put to together the person who so stingy who the even the meal eat by her money suddenly offered up all the monsters core

She look at me suspiciously and ask "what are you up to"

I just shrug and said "nothing nyx this is a secret but i have a ability to absorb monster’s strength like attributes and now more things so i can gat strong by it if i keep doing it you will be disadvantaged if even one of us got fell behind its not good to the team"

She look at me a thousand of thoughts spread in her mind ’a ability to absorb monsters strength that would be so much powerful and most even kill of chase to gat it so even you have it you guarded like a secret that your life defended on it so why telling her’

’Why giving the monster core to her when he can gat them too and hat twice as strong’

’What make him trust me’

So she ask directly "this must be your greatest secret why you choose to tell me you could just pretend to be weak and absorb all the monster core and gat strong"

I nodded at that and said "yha that would be a nice choice and i know im shameless and take every advantage i can but this is a life and death i put my life on your hand you put your life in my hand if i can’t even a shear a secret like this"

"And pretended to be weak and let you die what that make me nyx i don’t care about other’s opinion but i have my own boundaries that i won’t cross that what make me separate from those monsters"

"That’s what keeps me sane and it’s what give me my life a value if i become a person who have no bottom line i can’t see my face in tomorrow and start a day so it’s important to know your boundaries and how much far you willing to go for your goals"

She look at me deeply a same idiot who talks like a chatter box every moment a same shameless person who skimmed her merit points dry

She already know im a very serious person underneath but she didn’t think it’s this deep

So she nodded and began to work hard and make a foot ground up the hut we made and gat ready for monster i look at the time

[ monster release time: 4 minutes and 45 second ]

[ monster release time: 4 minutes and 30 second ]

We gat our weapons and gat ready
