AQUA

Tower of Ascension



Arya's pov 

Have you ever felt like a game is against you? You haven't? Awesome!! Neither have I till fucking today!! Not to mention my car is fucking scrapped, I'm in this fucking tower that wants me to, guess how much! 

Conquer hundred fucking floors!! Fuckkk!!!

After finishing my internal raging monologue, defeated I got up from the floor and opened my bag, bringing out my rifle along with two delt chains from the box, wearing them I gazed at the gigantic entrance in the distance as I walked towards it.

"I have only 110 delts, I'm not stupid enough to think I can conquer this damned place, but I am getting something here before I die!!!" 

I reached the entrance, the huge fucking door was stupidly white and I went to knock on the door. A creak sounded as the door automatically opened, sounding like it had been locked for hundreds of years!! 

Before I could move inside, I froze as hundreds of eyes looked at me!! I took a glance to see that there were only three types of monsters inside, did that matter? Not cause they fucking swarmed me!!

 Without wasting a second I took to the sky and cast a piercing shot 

"Mute notifications!!"

 That was the last word I said as I pressed the trigger! The bullet went straight through three monsters, falling them!

I landed on the golden chandelier as I stared at the hoard of monsters below my eyes glowing with excitement!! This was fun!! And I threw myself down to the monsters to continue, with precise aim, I shot them with piercing shots nine more times before landing on the chandelier again. I swiftly reloaded my rifle as they created a body wall to get to me which prompted me to fly away from the chandelier while simultaneously shooting the handle, the beautiful scenery of a huge chandelier crashing into hundreds of monsters was a sight to see!! Blood rapidly pooled on the ground as body pieces separated. That didn't stop my assault as I used a piercing shot five more times before my stardust ended which had me no longer engraving runes.

Thirty minutes into the battle and my first problem finally showed... I had used all my ammo.

I rapidly flew around dodging their body wall while thinking of the next alternative 

'This is going to hurt' 

With a heavy leap, I reached the ceiling and hung my cross-body bag there with my rifle safely in it before closing my wings as I crashed into them throwing a fierce punch as I ripped out the two-foot tusk of the monster thereby engaging them in melee!!

With my legs on the ground and a tusk at hand, I went into a frenzy! Left! Right! Punch! Dodge! I was killing everything my hands touched! My clothes were currently torn into pieces! There were large cuts all over my body, claw wounds and teeth! My blood was rushing out like a broken dam as I stared at the last monster!

My breath was heavy, I couldn't move, I was naked and he rushed me! For the first time since I'd been fighting for who knows how long, I used my wing to block the monster as it flew back, with no hesitation I rushed after it and with it, in the sky, I stabbed the tusk straight through its heart!! Pinning it atop its siblings!! And I fell to the floor!

CONGRATULATIONS TO PLAYER LLOUD FOR CLEARING THE FIRST FLOOR, PLEASE HEAD TO THE TREASURE CHEST TO RECEIVE YOUR REWARD 

I didn't move..... I was about to die, I could feel it!! And with the last energy I had in me, I whispered with my body lying among mangled flesh and flowing blood! " Unmute notifications " 

I saw a sea of white!!

And it just kept coming!! It's a wonder if the experience was so easy to come by or it was the tower or the monsters were overpopulated cause they looked overpopulated! I didn't want to think too much though, I had only 5 health points and my stamina was practically wiped out and it seemed like a lot of tasks to open my mouth, I just had to say one word!! 

"Y... Y..es.."

I was alive!! My body rapidly healed as I felt stronger! Before I felt what upgrading classes do. I instantly lost all sense of self as I lay limply on the floor waiting for it to pass.

Class tier upgrading now!!

And I just laid there..... If this wasn't a game I would have died from the pain but the game removes 90% of all pain so it wasn't all that bad! Though the feeling of a rune being engraved in your body was a really weird feeling but still negligible and soon enough, it was done!

The class successfully upgraded!


Congratulations on becoming a tier-two sniper 


Due to being the first player to advance, you've been given a reward 

Please check your bag or home for your reward 


Passive rune Craze successfully engraved!


Level upgrade quest available! 


Quest changing due to special situation 

LEVEL UPGRADE QUEST


DETAILS - DEFEAT THE BOSS IN FLOOR TWO OF THE TOWER OF ASCENSION 


TIME LIMIT - NIL


REWARDS - TIER 3 LEVEL UP, TWO PASSIVE RUNES

I looked at the quest blankly, I didn't want to do it honestly but I needed to level up so whatever let's deal with my status first of all

"And done!" 

With that, I finally got off the floor and went to the shiny treasure chest floating in the middle of the room 

'Please have clothes!'

My hands touched the chest and it disintegrated, I blinked twice before looking at the ceiling as I looked at my bag, with a groan of annoyance I flew straight towards it, grabbing the bag before landing once more.

Opening the bag, I teared up in happiness when I saw the set of clothes there! There were a lot of rewards there!! I didn't have time to check all the details individually so I just looked around to see if I could clean up a bit, seeing it pointless I just brought out the hoodie set and proceeded to wear it, thankfully my boots didn't get destroyed in the battle and soon enough I was dressed up. I was going to head to the stairway heading to the next floor before I stopped and looked at the endless materials I almost abandoned. With a sigh I removed my clothes and went straight to skinning the monsters, bones, flesh and skin, I am taking all!! 

"Probably only blood will be left when I'm done skinning them!" 

Due to the large number of corpses littered all over the floor, it took me eight hours to get through them, I didn't end up taking everything as only the fur and bones could be used in production so there was a large stack of dismembered body piled up and I placed the materials into my bag before wearing the clothes again, it was bloodied the moment I wore it and I also smelled deeply of blood but that wasn't important as I went straight to the second floor, this time I plan to finish the fight in ten minutes!

"I need to log out soon..."

Entering the second floor, a giant beast was waiting for me, I didn't bother to check as I instantly cast my new tier two spell and cast it again three times in a row!! Before the beast knew what had happened, it was dead! "I love that you don't have to grind down a mass amount of health points!!" 

CONGRATULATIONS TO PLAYER LLOUD FOR CLEARING THE SECOND FLOOR, PLEASE HEAD TO THE TREASURE CHEST TO RECEIVE YOUR REWARD 




DING - LEVEL UPGRADE CLASS COMPLETED 


REWARDS ARE BEING DISTRIBUTED 

And I fell to the floor as my body lost all sense, thankfully the level upgrade only took ten minutes and I went straight to skinning the beast. Once I was done with that, I took the treasure chest and without thinking twice I stabbed myself in the heart as I slumped to the ground, I couldn't breathe!! Everything hurts!!! I raised a shaky hand and pushed the tusk deeper!!

Ding - you've died.


" Fuck! " I took in large gulps of oxygen as I floated on the water, I quickly flew out and with a little bit of confirming, I flew to the housing complex, most of the blood on my body had been washed inside the lake so I was able to find my apartment. Locking it from the inside, I placed the bag inside a drawer, took a thorough bath while washing the clothes, and changed into shorts and a sports bra that was inside my bag before laying on the bed 

"Log out!"

 I exclaimed while vaguely remembering the last notification I heard before I died

DUE TO THE SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING PLAYER LLOUD'S DEATH, PLAYER LLOUD HAS BEEN GIVEN A ONE-TIME KEY FOR HER TO RETURN TO THE SECOND FLOOR TO CONTINUE HER CONQUER 

'Did I ask?!!'

Spoiler

A little while after Arya logged out, a gorgeous woman stepped in, the moment she saw Arya resting on the bed, her beautiful aqua eyes showed confusion as she muttered 

"Roommate? That's a weird concept!"  

And she stepped in!
