Stuck in The Tower

Chapter 191:

Is the truth written in the last chapter?

The first sentence written in elegant handwriting.

– Heida betrayed me.

I even read the article.

Then to what was written before.

Simple routines and small incidents. The time spent with Heida was recorded.

About how much Odelto cared for Heida and treated him with trust and love.

The atrocities of Heida, who was mentally unstable, and how many sacrifices and efforts were made for her were written in detail.

However, in the second half, Odelto’s increasingly exhausted feelings were revealed, and in the end, Heida, who abandoned grace, attacked the people around him.

It was full of content that would anger Heida, who betrayed Odelto, if someone unfamiliar saw it.

“Look at this? It’s fun.”

I held a sneer

An SS-class Power Eye that watches the stars.

The authority to read information gave not only the language of the other world that could not be read, but also the information about the diary itself.

[Forged Diary of Odelto]

– This is a diary written in the style of Odelto.

Over 100 pages were forged.

To the point where the sincerity is commendable.

It was obvious who forged it.

Deniam That guy did it.

There was a reason why I handed over the diary naturally.

The ulterior motive to stir emotions in order to seal Heida.

A simple but very effective method.

What if you were a bald man?

“I should have accepted the quest right away.”

thank god.

Because that idiot came up first before he did anything stupid.

I need to finish it quickly and post a strategy post.

He smiled and sat down on the bed.

Interest in counterfeit diaries has long since disappeared.

I felt a little lighter.

Ever since I received the quest from Denium, I had many questions.

first.

“Quest name.”

The quest name he gave is Heida Seal.

If he really wanted to avenge his son, wouldn’t it have been named ‘Denium’s Revenge’ rather than a seal?

And unlike Heida, who is a fairy, Denium is a human.

that you can lie.

He never directly said that Heida killed Odelto.

The titles Denium has also bothered me.

The second question is.

“The quest I’m on.”

Odelto’s Gift Quest.

If you think about it simply, the only thing you can do is to deliver the gift that Odelto wanted to give to Heida.

Except for the fact that it is a hidden quest, it is a common content.

One thing to note is that clearing leads to a chain quest.

[Odelto’s Gift – Hidden Quest]

– Clearing the quest leads to ‘Odelto’s Request – Hidden Quest’.

At first, I was only interested in the Fellain set and moved on, but the more I think about it, the more strange this quest is.

“There is no subject who gave me the quest.”

It wasn’t the quest Heida, the person in charge, gave, nor was it the quest Denium gave.

It’s a naturally occurring quest.

It’s not an event, it makes no sense.

In addition, the linked quest is ‘Odelto’s Request’.

How can the dead Odelto give me the quest?

One thing if possible.

That there is something that replaces Odelto.

[Reasonable reasoning!]

[5000 points will be paid!]

Am I right?

System rewards were given.

Top is strangely kind.

Whatever it is, Danium is lying to me.

At least it’s certain that he’s trying to make me do the quest.

I can guess why, but first, let’s find the traces of Odelto.

I looked around the room while maintaining my powers.

“Here you are.”

I was able to find the real Odelto’s diary.

The letter stuck between the diaries.

I glanced at the door.

There hasn’t been any sign that Denium will come in yet, but there’s nothing wrong with being careful.

I’m curious about the contents of the diary, but let’s get out of here for today. -I

opened the door

with a rattle .

Denium greets me, arms crossed with her back against the hallway wall.

“You’re coming out sooner than you think.”

“yes. Looking at the diary is disturbing.”

“It has no choice but to be. People call fairies a mysterious race and think they are harmless, but the reality is different.”

A guy who hangs his head pretending to be sad.

Isn’t this enough to be a target for acting?

If he wasn’t a noble, he would have made it as an actor.

“okay. Have you thought about carrying out the quest?”

“I don’t know yet.”

With one bounce, his complexion deteriorates rapidly.

“Are you thinking of just going up like this?”

The reason he asks this question is obvious.

Didn’t you check it yourself? I went out to the field and came back intact.

You don’t want to miss it.

After all, few people can walk around without being attacked by Heida.

I didn’t even know if there was any other than me.

If I put my mind to it, I know better than anyone that I can go through the portal.

“I need a little more time to think about it.”

“Okay. It’s not an issue worth addressing. I respect your opinion, but…”

Denium continues with a bitter expression.

“Actually, I don’t have much time. Maybe this is your last chance. Then I will feel resentment for the rest of my life without being able to avenge my son.”

“There is no time.”

is that too

Denium’s reaction to the quest.

I did something at first, but now I’m sure.

The guy is nervous.

Are you afraid you’ll miss me?

There are things like that, but…

“You’re not doing your job properly as an NPC.”

“How about that!”

“The NPCs in the safe zone don’t seem to have any other roles, they’re just giving quests.”

Each NPC has a role assigned to them.

Like Heyda running around the field and attacking climbers.

It’s the same reason that the exiled Druid Priest Fengrill acted as the district boss and Gale was exploited in the workhouse.

But what if you didn’t do your job properly?

At that time, he endures and endures, loses his ego, and becomes a puppet that moves according to the tower’s will.

Didn’t Alios work as a jeweler after all?

Snow Spirit Queen Hainu?

After being neglected for a long time, it lost its power and returned to the seed.

‘Denium’s role is to give quests in the safe zone.’

But never once did the quest succeed.

That is, there are no achievements.

If anyone had succeeded, Heida would not have been on the 48th floor.

“You know a lot, climber.”

“Because there was quite a bit of interaction with NPCs.”

Denium glared at me for a moment before sighing.

I couldn’t see his expression because he had his head down, but it was clear that he was thinking all sorts of things inside.

how do you get out

“You are right. I was in the safe zone and didn’t play my part. Yeah, I couldn’t avenge my son! I beg you like this. help me.”

It comes out more directly than you think.

Well, if you don’t know about NPCs, you don’t know. Lying to someone you know will only backfire.

Let’s ask one more question.

“How do you seal Heida? It would be better if Denium, the NPC, stepped forward rather than a mere climber.”

No matter how strong a climber is, this place is on the 40th floor.

NPCs are extremely strong.

Is there any reason to ask me for help?

No, even if I go out, how can I seal it?

“Don’t worry about that. Because you can use this.”

Denium pulls things out of his arms.

A cube the size of a fist.

An unknown pattern is drawn on the top.

[Mental body storage device]

– Mental body storage device made by the wise man

– It was created by combining a spirit stone and an arcane gem.

-You can temporarily dwell in a psyche such as a spirit or a fairy.

-NPC Unavailable

Was there such equipment?

It certainly seems like this would be possible.

“I want to use it, but there are restrictions. I can’t write.”

NPC unavailable option.

That’s why he wants my help.

“Hmm. You can tell me more.”

Denium clears his throat a few times and looks at me.

The eyes come alive.

“If Heida is sealed and then destroyed, I am the only NPC left here. It means you can become the NPC in charge of the 48th floor!”

The corners of his mouth go up.

“A law that deserves to be treated accordingly. I will adjust the quest reward a bit more.”

[Denium changes the quest reward.]

[Sealing Heida – Hidden Quest]

– Duke Denium of Sainton Peace wants to seal the NPC Heida.

-You can help him.

-Reward: Treasure of the Pregrent Family Sword of Greed (AA) Equipment left by the hero of the destroyed world (choice 1)

-If you fail, you will die with a high probability.

“You must know that NPCs are the beings of the destroyed world. I am the Duke of Sainte-Peace! He also served as a war hero. There are many heroes who ruled the world with me. I will give you one of their items.”

He said it patronizingly, but I laughed inwardly.

Titles are not just given.

I know that it is like a resume that represents how you behaved and what kind of life you have lived.

The title he has is…

-Title A person intoxicated with power.

Dealing with Heida and trying to become the main NPC is a half-instinctive act.

It’s a hero’s thing, since the world was destroyed, he must have taken it.

At first glance, it was a horrifying story.

‘There is no list of items used by heroes anywhere.’

It’s okay to give the spoon that the hero used to say.

I hope so, but well.

Anyway, there was no law that said not to do it between words after seeing it once.

Even more so if you are much stronger than a climber.

Right now, I’m coming out with a low profile, but I didn’t know how it would change once I achieved what I wanted.

I don’t know anything else, but the trust disappeared at the point where they tried to deceive me.

“I will come back tomorrow. I want to calm down and finish reading the diary. You can expect good news.”

“Please. I’ll make you wait.”

After saying that, I left the mansion without any regrets.

I felt Denium’s gaze behind my back, but I didn’t care and left the safe zone.

“Did you come early today? Apple Pie! Apple Pie!”

As always, Heida, who had been waiting for me near the safe zone, clung to me.

I stroked the boy’s head.

If you look at it like this, you look like a child.

“I didn’t get the apple pie. I got something else instead.”

“Something else?”

Heida, suddenly sullen, flew up.

Did you say that fairies are very curious?

I took the letter out of my inventory.

“This is the letter Odelto asked me to give.”

“letter!”

Heada then stretches out his hand, his eyes twinkling.

“I wonder what it is about? Shall we see it together? Ughhh.”

I raised the corners of my mouth and pretended to open the envelope.

“Oh, no! I will see it alone! gonna cry! Aaaaaa!”

Like a child whose toy was stolen, Heida started to make a fuss.

Flying around like crazy, hitting me, hanging on my arm and pulling my ears.

ah. My eyes are dizzy.

“I’ll give. now.”

“Hehehe! Good!”

I handed over the letter saying I lost.

Heida hugged me tightly and quickly grabbed the letter.

Then it flies far away.

“You can’t steal it!”

“Don’t steal.”

I have something I need to see secretly from you.

After looking at Heida for a while, who was moving away at a tremendous speed, I also headed to the hideout with Deokchun.

Thinking of checking Odelto’s diary.

It didn’t take long before we arrived at the abandoned house.

Seeing that Odelto’s gift quest has not yet been cleared, it seems that Heida needs to check the contents of the letter to clear it.

it’s just a matter of time

While waiting for the clearing, I opened the diary.

Soon I came face to face with the truth.
