Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

"You said you saw the core, right?"

"Yes, what\'s that got to do with it?" James asked, shaking his head.

"You were able to see the core when your aura and magical energy in your body were depleted, you were as if you were bewitched before you achieved your goal, after all, all that time you wanted to reveal the core, you were so focused that you refused to wake up against all the warnings from your body and tried to fulfil your goal," Vlad replied.

"Well...why didn\'t you try to stop me?" James asked, and it was a reasonable question.

"I didn\'t feel the need to wake you up or call for help until I felt you were close to death, after all, you have a lesson to learn, James," Vlad said to the young boy\'s question.

With these words, it was not only James who became angry but every one of the onlookers.

"And what exactly was that lesson? I don\'t think I fully understand." James said with his eyebrows arched.

"The lesson was to show you what happens when you focus too much on one thing and ignore everything else. You were so focused on the core that you didn\'t realise you were draining both your aura and your magical energy, you literally ignored the warnings your body was giving you, and you partially killed yourself," Vlad said.

James\' gaze became more serious and angry with each of the old man\'s explanations.

"Okay, fine, but couldn\'t you have said it with your words?!" James shouted, and Vlad, hearing this, opened his arms just like Chaos did to Nyx and said the following words:

"Where is the fun in that?"

With these words, James shook his head and said, "Oh come on!!! Can we just move on to the last part of the sword art? I don\'t think I can get used to the second part, the cutting, I have a better idea, I think we should take a short break from training, let me climb to the next floors, Ariel is already waiting for me."

Vlad waited for a few seconds at James\' words and then shook his head and said, "It\'s not unreasonable, while climbing the floors, you can also manage to train the first part of my father\'s sword art so that it will be good for you."

Even if James had come back to this hall to train, he had to get to the 24th floor quickly, anything beyond that required at least a teammate, making everything more complicated.

As James stood up from his seat he walked to the door of the lounge and then pulled one side of the huge door open and stepped out.

"Wait for me Ariel, I\'m going to climb the floors quickly, I\'ll see you in the last lobby of the 23rd floor." James said, and with these words, not even waiting for Ariel to say, he said, "Emma, please open the portal to the next floor!"

With those words, he saw Ariel\'s smiling face and heard the voice of his dear friend and perfect mother figure before he passed through the portal:

"Be careful."

This would be the last human voice he would hear before several exams in a row. After certain puzzles, rescue missions and many more, he had managed to reach the last section of the 23rd floor, the lobby, in just a month.

This was the area between the 23rd and 24th floors, also known as the area James had entered with Emma\'s help.

James had recently sent a request to Ariel to set up a party with the window opened in front of him and the request had been accepted instantly, another passage opened behind James and Ariel, wearing her armour, appeared.

"You look pretty cool in that armour set," James said, he hadn\'t seen her dressed like that since the arena.

Hearing these words, Ariel smiled shook her head and said, "Each floor from this floor to the 30th floor requires a suit. We\'re pretty comfortable that we\'ve met the minimum limit, so let\'s get this done quickly and decisively, I\'ve got a date with someone."

James nodded his head as if he understood these words and said understandingly, "Yes, thanks to Nemesis, I\'ve learnt how much tooling is required from where to where...wait a second?" his surprise seemed to have caught up with him.

Seeing Ariel\'s expression, James shook his head and then asked, "Wait, you have a date with someone?"

Ariel shook her head and then put her hand on James\' shoulder and said, "Theseus can be quite persuasive."

James paused for a few seconds and moved his head from side to side like a surprised cat, he didn\'t really know if what he was hearing was real or not, but he was confused.

Suddenly he crossed the passage in front of him and came to Ariel and asked "Theseus? Our Thes?" he asked. When he saw Ariel\'s nod, James really didn\'t seem to have anything to say, but he had to voice the questions in his mind.

"So the legend of his wife Antiope\'s death was true? What about the cruel Faidra, what happened to that cruel woman?" James asked, and Ariel, hearing this, looked at James and spoke:

"She wasn\'t a god, she chose to die, and the cruel woman died with her stupid mind."

James nodded his head up and down as if he understood and then said, "So Theseus, you\'ve been alone all this time, just like you, so I can say I\'m happy, those closest to me are getting closer. I just love you both a lot, like seriously a lot."

Of course, what James said would change depending on how the date went.
