_ Volume 16 Episode 20
395. 79th Floor, Floor of Struggle (1)
[Congratulations.]
As soon as he returned to the labyrinth, he heard Taesan’s voice. Taesan knew right away whose voice it was.
“Witch.”
green witch. She was talking to Taesan.
[It’s already reached the same level as me… It’s really fast. It’s not a bad story for me
either, but it makes me sad somewhere.]
She shares her sights with Taesan through a contract. As Taishan grows stronger, gaining new strength and fighting stronger enemies, she gets closer and closer to her goal. There was nothing wrong with Taesan becoming stronger.
But she has been stuck in immortality all her life.
It was literally unfathomable years. However, Taishan reached immortality in just a matter of dust. She couldn’t be happier.
[But… it’s not a bad story. The stronger you become, the higher the chance of knowing the path to transcendence.]
The witch’s voice was a little excited.
[What will happen to you? Will it stop at immortality like me? Or should I move on like the gods and reach transcendence? I’ll keep watching.]
After that, the witch’s voice disappeared.
The witch wanted to find a way to become a transcendental being. That’s why he signed a contract with Taesan
.
However, he was walking a completely different path from ordinary immortals and transcendental ones.
Taesan didn’t know if he would be of any help to the witch.
He opened up a community. The people who survived and returned to the labyrinth were talking noisily.
[Oliver Kahn [Hard]: How is the situation in Asia and Europe?]
[Daniel Darmont [Hard]: We are fine. Although we had a hard time joining the African side,
there was no big problem.]
[Kim Hwi-yeon [Hard]: We were fine too. In fact, if there was a problem, there was, but… because Taesan-nim was there.]
[Amelia Aerin [Alone]: I felt something terrible even across the sea. Was it okay?]
[Lee Taeyeon [Alone]: It’s okay. The number of deaths is not small, but within the expected range. There is no big problem.]
Lee Tae-yeon calmly wrote. Amelia
asked as if she were curious.
[Amelia Aerin [Alone]: It seems the atmosphere has changed. What happened?]
[Kang Jun-hyeok [Alone]: After all the quests, something has changed. What did you hear from Taesan hyung? ]
Amelia and Kang Jun-hyuk and Lee Tae-yeon are in the same Alone mode, so they usually talked a lot. As such, it seemed that he immediately noticed that Taeyeon had changed.
[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: Something happened.]
Lee Tae-yeon slipped over. Amelia seemed curious, but didn’t ask any further.
Lee Tae-yeon regained her memories of her previous life.
You will descend the labyrinth at a different speed and method than before.
Taesan, who looked at the community for a while, immediately started checking the points.
5800 points. It was a lot of points. Of course, how to use it depends on the proficiency of the skill, but I was worried about how to use it.
“Of course you can’t use it for soul skills.”
In addition, it was not properly used for skills above a certain level.
I also thought about using it for magic or black magic, but the efficiency dropped as the number of types gradually increased.
After thinking for a while, Taesan made a decision.
“Shall we put it off until later?”
There was no need to use the points right away. If you have it first and get the right skill, you can use it there.
There were quite a few skills to acquire. advanced magic. And now you will be able to make a direct contract with the devil with Remegeton. It seemed like it would be a good idea to use the points for the skills gained there.
Having made a decision, Taesan moved.
He’s still on the 78th floor. It was in the library of all things.
He stood and headed inside.
* * *
The manager of the library first discovered him. It was Jorge. Sensing Taesan, he closed the book he was reading.
“I have been away for quite some time. Where have you been?”
Saying that, Jorge looked at Mount Tai.
And he shut up.
He stared blankly at Taesan, frowning.
“…have you reached it?”
“It happened.”
“What are you doing?”
A crack spread across Jorge’s face.
“How in the world so quickly…
he groaned.
Even he, who had accumulated a lot of knowledge as the manager of the library of all things, couldn’t help but be embarrassed at the stage where Taesan had reached
.
In the end, that was all he said. A glimpse of greed and desire appeared on Jorge’s face.
He is the manager of the library. As an apostle of the god of knowledge, he seeks endless knowledge.
The existence of Taesan was stimulating his desire for knowledge.
But Jorge couldn’t do more than that. It was because it was not permitted to him.
In the end, Jorge
had no choice but to relish his appetite.
“At this point, Metis-nim seems to be a little resentful. What are you going to do? Are you going down now? Or will you stay here a little longer?”
“I intend to stay a little longer.”
“Do whatever you feel comfortable with.”
Even as he said that, Jorge did not take his eyes off Taesan.
As long as Taesan was here, he looked at him as if he would observe everything about him. Taesan didn’t care and went to Ain Tsuharu.
“Ohhh!”
Einzhar, who saw the mountain, was the first to exclaim.
“You have arrived. The possibility was visible, but how could it be so quickly…
“I used a little shortcut.”
A place reached by faith, not by one’s own strength. could be seen as expedient. When Einzhar understood Taesan’s meaning, he chuckled.
“Looks like there might be some expedient to reach it. It’s just a difference in the way we walk. Yes. You got your power rightfully. Congratulations.”
“thank you.”
After giving thanks, Taesan pulled out his sword.
“In that sense, can I ask for sparring?”
“It’s me!”
Einzhar chuckled and drew out his sword.
The duel started again.
So far, Taesan had fought quite a few duels with Einzhar, and in all of those duels, Einzhar didn’t do his best.
He didn’t even use proper swordsmanship and only showed obvious movements. But even so, Taesan couldn’t even land a single blow on Einzhar. There was quite a difference between the two.
But no more.
Kagagagak!
Sword and sword collide. In the face of the mighty Einzhar’s attack, Taesan did not back down even a single step.
[You have activated Dekaravia’s Distorted Vegetation.]
The black magic that you have been using ever since.
But its power was on a different level.
Kwakwawang!
Roots rise and shake the library. If Jorge hadn’t opened the barrier, part of the library would have been destroyed.
All of the roots that penetrate the world are summoned.
In response, Einzhar, clad in gold, swung his sword.
Quadduk!
The roots are cut off by the golden sword
.
However, the golden light surrounding Einzhar had also noticeably diminished.
“This is fun!”
Einzhar’s eyes lit up.
“You don’t need to adjust your strength!”
Einzhar kicked his feet.
He arrived in front of Taishan in an instant. It was so fast that I couldn’t even see Mt. Tae right now.
But it wasn’t to the extent that I couldn’t respond
.
Taesan swung his sword.
[You activated Blitz.]
Kaaang!
Taesan’s body was pushed away.
But it didn’t take any damage. It meant that he had succeeded in blocking his sincerity.
‘As expected.’
Einzhar was a monster.
Now that he had risen to immortality, he knew for sure. He was strong enough to be defeated ninety-nine times in a hundred battles
.
But you can win once in a hundred.
Now he had reached the same level as Einzhar.
If he had the variables of borderline and divinity main-class skills, it wasn’t impossible to win.
Taesan stamped his feet. The black Ain Tsuhar pierced sharply.
Koo Goo Goo!
The duel lasted about half a day and then came to an end. Einzhar had a very satisfied face.
“Good. It’s been a while since I felt better.”
After taking a break, Taesan visited Levinenov. It was because, now that he had risen to the rank of immortal, it might be possible for him to interfere.
But it was still impossible. Ein Tsuhar clicked his tongue with a regretful face.
“I think it’s correct that we have to reach the 84th floor first. please Taesan.”
“All right.”
Confirmation with Einzhar was over.
The desired knowledge was also sufficiently accumulated
. There was no reason to be in the library of all things anymore.
He made his way to the passageway to the 79th floor. Jorge was waiting there.
“Looks like you’re going down now.”
Taesan nodded. Jorge manifested authority.
[Cleared the 78th floor.]
[Your level has risen.]
[Your level has risen.] [Your level has risen.] [
The
Book of Knowledge has been obtained.]
[The ??? has been obtained.]
“Status window.”

[Attack Power + 10125]
[Defense + 6752]
[The target is in the best condition.]
[What kind of stats.]
The ghost laughed. Even those who cleared the labyrinth normally could not be sure if their stats would be higher than those of Taesan.
Taesan confirmed the reward he had obtained.
[The Book of Knowledge.]
[Only a small portion of the knowledge of the Library of All Things is contained.]
“Is it simply the Library of All Things?”
When I opened the book and turned the pages, I could not stop turning it. Even with reconnaissance and intensive detection, the end could not be confirmed.
The library of all things is literally an infinite library. Even Jorge couldn’t read all the books. Even if it was part of it, it was natural that the end could not be known.
I’ve been meaning to read it whenever I have free time.
[Used ???]
[Obtained the Sword of All Things]
[Sword of All Things]

[Dark magic + 1 becomes
[Magic + 10]
[A sword created by containing many things in the universe. The power contained in the sword is so great that the user cannot handle it all.]
It was literally a weapon that raised the overall level. Fortunately, Taesan was dealing with magic as well as black magic. It was the perfect equipment for Tae San, so there was no problem.
After tidying up, Taesan went down the stairs.
[79th floor quest begins.]
[Prove your strength in the realm of struggle.]
[Reward: Ring of those who succeeded in struggle.]
[Secret reward: ???]
79th floor.
The 80th floor was now in front of me. The moment Taesan tried to descend the labyrinth, the floor of the labyrinth shook.
As this had already happened several times, Taesan calmly waited.
It wasn’t long before Barbaba showed up.
Balbabamba said nothing.
It was there quietly as it appeared. Taesan didn’t even speak.
[You.]
After a while, Barbaba opened her mouth.
[You really make my head hurt.]
There was a lot of fatigue in that voice.
Level up with skill
