Leveling Up with Skills Chapter 507

– Volume 21, Episode 8

508. 94th Floor Easy Mode (1)

“I had a hard time.”

There was sincerity in the wizard’s voice. There was a slight but definite fatigue on his face.

“After hearing the rumors, transcendentalists came from all directions. They all eagerly tried to control the scales of Ouroboros. But even so, it was impossible to control.”

Jowolja. Among them, those

in charge of concepts .

They literally govern the concept of the universe itself. They were the ones who could threaten the entire universe alone if they set their minds to it.

The strongest beings in the universe who can exert influence over the entire universe.

Even when many such people gathered, they could not control the scales of Ouroboros.

It was a refusal to understand. The pride of the Transcendentalists had been shattered.

“Thanks to that, I had to travel quite far and borrow the power of something else.”

“Other?”

“Ouroboros is an existence close to a device in charge of the circulation of all things. Ouroboros isn’t the only device like that.”

The wizard shrugged.

“It’s a story that really has nothing to do with you right now, so I’ll put aside that part, and whatever… I was able to make it as a result of various attempts and ideas.”

The wizard waves his hand. The jewel slowly flies toward Mount Tai.

“receive. It is only for you and only for you

.”

Taesan stretched out his hand. The white jewel gently landed on Taesan’s hand.

[You have obtained a piece of Ouroboros.]

[A piece of Ouroboros]

[You can move through the twisted and crushed flow of time. There are various restrictions and conditions.]

A smile caught on Taesan’s lips.

‘at las.’

It was just what he had hoped for. Finally got it after a long wait.

Taesan suppressed his excitement. It wasn’t perfect yet. He asked the wizard to make an item using the scales of Ouroboros, and the effect was also decided in advance.

It was necessary to find out how much the effect was achieved.

“It says there are restrictions and conditions.”

“It is as you would expect. Traveling to a

twisted time is impossible for us either.”

Even transcendentalists cannot completely escape the flow of time. Only Ouroboros can do that.

“It would have been simpler if it was just going back to the past, but isn’t that what you wanted? Because it is a concept that is beyond our understanding and scope, we have not been able to fully cover it. Thanks to that, there was a considerable penalty.”

“What exactly are the restrictions?”

“First one.”

Wizard raises his finger.

“It is true that you can move the twisted timeline. But that is a timeline separate from this place.”

“Is it a parallel world?”

“Similar. It’s a different timeline from here. No matter what you do or achieve there, nothing changes in this timeline.”

If Taesan was thinking of going back to the past and changing the future, it was the worst thing to say. This means that no matter what achievements you achieve by going back in the past, you will have no impact here

.

However, Taesan’s expression did not change.

“What next?”

“It is a world on a different time axis than here. In other words, you are a stranger and a foreign substance in that world. You can survive for a while with the pieces of Ouroboros and your own strength… but if you try to change the world, the world will try to banish you.”

There were restrictions on the use and actions of power.

“It’s a restriction that doesn’t really mean much

. Your strength and rank will be limited anyway.”

“Is it limited?”

“The time you can go back is from your own birth. You can’t go to a timeline where you don’t exist. Are you aware of that?”

Taesan nodded. The wizard raised his finger and pointed at Mount Tai.

“The problem is that your powers are also fixed to you in that timeline.”

Taesan, who understood the meaning for a moment, opened his mouth. “

If I go back to my childhood when

I didn’t enter the labyrinth .”

“It means that your strength is also fixed to you as a child.”

It was a very big penalty. Losing the power he had and being able to return to being a normal human meant, in fact, that the timeline to which he could return was fixed.

“Of course, if you wish, you can bring out your original power, but in that case you won’t be able to stay long.”

This very large tooth was also the worst medicine.

However, Taesan’s expression

did not change much.

“and?”

“Did I tell you earlier? You are a foreign substance in that world. In other words, vice versa.”

The things of that world become this substance when they come here.

“It will be difficult to bring materials or substances from there. Even if you succeed in bringing it, it will turn into something meaningless. This is true even if it is the stomach stone of Ouroboros.”

can’t bring anything Tae San opened his mouth.

“It’s not like you can’t bring anything back.”

The wizard nodded.

“What you cannot bring is a foreign object in that world. If you have the right qualifications and have obtained it through your own efforts and will, it can no longer be regarded as a foreign substance. In that case, you should be able to get it without any problem.”

“That’s enough.”

Taesan laughed.

You can’t change the past. It cannot have any significant effect and

may temporarily lose its power. I went back a long time ago, but I can’t bring anything.

There were so many restrictions, and each one of them was heavy.

But Taesan was satisfied enough. He gave strength to the hand holding the Ouroboros piece.

The wizard was watching with an interesting expression on his face.

“It’s getting quite interesting.”

Taesan had directly told the wizard what he wanted. So the wizard knew better than anyone

what he wanted .

So I was curious. Will he be able to achieve what he wants?

“This will be better than what I prepared.”

The wizard waves his hand. The concept of labyrinth is that the law moves according to the owner’s will. That’s how another law is engraved in the labyrinth.

[The 94th floor quest begins.]

[Fulfill what you want and come back.]

[Reward: Wizard’s ring.]

[Secret reward: ???]

“There was originally something prepared for the 94th floor, but thinking about it, it means a lot to you. It seemed that there would be no I think this would be better than that.”

“Can I just change it like this?”

“How are you? I am the master of the labyrinth.”

The wizard laughed happily. His eyes were full of anticipation and joy.

“Ego. Achieve it once and see it. I will be waiting for you in this world.”

Taesan nodded and went down the stairs.

There was nothing on the 94th floor. The labyrinth was empty as if you were telling yourself to move.

[Are you going right now?]

“Because there is no need to wait.”

The plan had already been sorted out since the time I asked the wizard.

All that remains is to put it into action.

Bardray muttered in an ambiguous tone.

[But if this happens…

what will happen to me and akasha? Unlike the spirits, we are in a perfectly subordinate relationship with you.]

“I don’t know Akasha, but I don’t know you. Can you leave me if you want to?”

[But first of all, it was a contract as a tool called a weapon. I don’t know what will happen in this case.]

“There won’t be any problem. Or only the soul will follow.”

Taesan gave strength to his hand with a serious face. From the moment I grabbed the piece,

everything about how to handle it came into my head.

[You used a piece of Ouroboros.]

Kiyiying!

Waves waver.

The labyrinth itself began to shake and twist.

It was not forcibly twisted with mighty force. It was a very natural shaking, like drawing a line on a drawing paper.

Koo Goo Goo! And the shaking

began to affect time

beyond space .

Space and time twist around Mount Tai.

[Uh…]

Bardray’s voice trembled. Akasha was not much different either. There were no words, but I could read the emotion in the shaking energy.

The two of them have seen so many things by Taesan’s side.

But what is happening now is different from anything else. It was not a strong yet acceptable power like the transcendents, nor a foreign and incomprehensible

power like the old gods.

I could understand, but I didn’t want to understand. I could accept it, but I wanted to reject it.

The reason was simple.

[Too…]

It was too big.

That the ground they were stepping on was actually the back of a huge animal.

That everything they know is just a small concept contained within a single marble.

The fact that goes beyond common sense and cognition was attacking them.

Bard Ray got goosebumps.

Great!

The power of Ouroboros is manifested. A concept that has existed since the beginning of time surrounds them and frees them from all flows, laws and concepts.

Part of the world born and raised in the world, they were now no longer part of the world.

They are not of this world now.

Whoa!

The swaying axis of time and space perfectly surrounds Mt. Judging that the preparations were over, Taesan gave strength to his hand.

Damn it!

The crack spreads through the sculpture, and the concept contained in it is completely liberated.

[Sleep.]

Bard Ray was frightened and tried to say something, but the words could not remain in the world. The concept completely wrapped around Taishan and was compressed before long.

And there was no one there.

Taesan, Badray, and Akasha.

Taesan completely disappeared from the labyrinth.

fault.

And Taesan stepped into the labyrinth.

“O”

[Ugh.]

[Ugh.]

A strange sensation overtook them. It was as if the world itself was hostile to them. Taesan clicked his tongue

and concentrated. The unpleasant sensation slowly began to recede.

“Is this about it?”

It felt like lying on a pile of pebbles. It wasn’t unbearable.

[…for a moment. What’s wrong with me and Akasha?]

Bardray was confused.

He was now in the form of a spirit. It was the same with Akasha. A blurry spiritual body floated beside Taishan.

[Where did my body go?]

[Master, something has changed.]

Taesan looked at himself. A lot of equipment and items he had. all of that was gone.

no. And that wasn’t all.

A feeling of helplessness throughout the body.

The power to divide the heavens and the earth and the dignity of reaching a lofty place had disappeared. Compared to his former self, he was no different from an ordinary human being now.

[…Master.]

Akasha said in a puzzled tone

.

[This is… where is it?]

After checking the condition, Taesan raised his head.

The first thing I saw was the wall of the labyrinth.

The dark walls of the labyrinth were filling up his field of vision. The room was quite spacious. The size of the playground has become quite decent.

And in the middle was a large fountain.

Taesan had seen that spring before. It was a long time ago now, but

I remember it vividly.

‘The fountain of life.’

It was different from the Fountain of Life seen in Alone Mode. It was more like a fountain than a fountain. But the spring in front of me was the size of a small lake.

It was a size that could not be found in Alone Mode. Bard Ray also raised his voice as if surprised.

[what. Why is Sam so tall? Isn’t there a labyrinth of that size?]

[Master. Where is this place. This is… like…]

Bardray replaced Akasha’s words that could not be connected.

[It’s like… a labyrinth.]

“It’s a labyrinth. It’s not a labyrinth you know.”

[What is that?]

Taesan caught his breath. It was a sight he hadn’t seen in a very long time.

This is the place where he from his previous life spent his entire life clearing.

A twisted space created by the intervention of the gods.

It was Easy Mode.
