I Became the 1st Floor Boss of the Tower

Leaving Lee Shin behind, Gorgin left to get his Titan.

"Follow him," Lee Shin commanded a demon that was filled with hatred for Goblins.

Lee Shin then turned his attention to the battlefield again. The Goblins were in a panic as some parts of the walls had collapsed. The Ogre tribes had spared no effort trying to break through those destroyed areas. However, even if some of the walls had collapsed, the odds of winning were still significantly lower for the Ogres.

Wooong—

Lee Shin could already hear the sound of the machines. And soon after, he could see the Titans flying out of the castle. There were a total of twelve Titans.

Some tribes had already managed to get past the walls; but as soon as the Titans got involved and blocked the tribes, the Goblins dominated over them. The Goblins could turn the tables on their enemies.

‘It is your turn to show me what you’ve got, Gundo.’ Lee Shin had moved secretly to a corner under the wall.

The next moment, mana slipped out from Lee Shin’s bracelet. He summoned Gundo. The tribes that were already inside made a mess of the citadel.

"Show them what you got,” Lee Shin said.

"Leave it to me!” Gundo got himself ready and headed toward the ruined gates.

"Ki-kik!" A goblin screamed.

Lee Shin turned his head toward where the scream came from. A Goblin who passed by was pointing his finger at Lee Shin.

"Human... You, you betrayed us—" the Goblin said.

"Shhh," Lee Shin hushed him.

Swoosh!

"Ki…. eeek…" the Goblin gasped.

The Dark Arrow, sent from the tip of Lee Shin’s finger, penetrated the Goblin's neck. The Goblin died on the spot, silenced. Lee Shin climbed the wall again, leaving the Goblin behind.

Kwang—! Thud!

"Keughaaa!" Gundo appeared.

"Who is this guy! Kieeek!"

"There's another monster inside! Block him!"

"Titan! Titan! Get over here!"

The situation at the gate became even more heated due to the appearance of Gundo. While observing the situation, Lee Shin turned his head to look toward the far distance when he sensed a wave of mana. Over there, energy had begun to form, making the atmosphere even heavier.

"I should get going,” Lee Shin muttered.

* * *

Kwaaang—! Kwang! Kwang! Kwang!

The Ogre's huge club hit Titan's body mercilessly.

"Krarak! Do you think you can beat me with this lump of scrap metal?" the Ogre shouted.

"Kieeek!" The Titan, which was a little smaller than Ogre, was pushed back a little by the Ogre’s power.

Swoosh— Kwa-kwa-kwang!

The cannonballs that flew in from the sides hit the Ogre. Through the smoke from the explosions, the Ogre's arm appeared, grabbing the Titan and breaking its arm off its body.

"You can go in now!” the Ogre said.

"Thank you!" Warrie replied.

Warrie chopped off a Goblin and the small machine he was riding. Warrie then went in through a hole in the gate that the Titan had been blocking. Inside, it was a mess. And suddenly, Warrie recognized a familiar face in that chaos.

"Gundo!" Warrie shouted.

Gundo was surrounded by three Titans and he was struggling to fight. Blood was all over his body.

Kagakak—!

Warrie made a sudden attack from behind, and swung his sword down from a height. The Titan’s Barrier broke off and his inner arm fell off.

‘Tsk.’

Warrie had cut off the Titan’s arm, but he was not satisfied with this. He knew that if it were not for the barrier, he would have broken the Titan’s body in half at once. He was disappointed that he could not accomplish that.

"Bring it on, you scrap metal!" Gundo shouted and showed off its toughness.

Warrie had joined Gundo to help him, but another Titan also joined the fight.

"Cowards… Can you really call yourselves warriors when we are fighting four to two?” Warrie shouted.

"Kieeek! We're not warriors! You stupid skull head," a Titan shouted.

"What? What did you just say? Stupid skull head?" Warrie was outraged.

"Kieeek! Kik! Just die!” Another Titan shouted.

The mana power emanating from Warrie’s sword cut down the cannonball.

"I will show you why I was called the Red-Eyed Swordsman," Warrie muttered.

There was a red glow in Warrie’s eyes. The trajectory of the cannonballs which were flying from all directions were drawn out for Warrie’s eyes. Following those trajectories, Warrie made smooth cuts. The cannonballs that had been flying toward Warrie did not detonate. The Titans were hesitant at the unbelievable sight.

"Alright, so who’s up nex—” Warrie could not finish his sentence.

Whooonggg— Kwaaang!!

An energy cannonball flew in from far away at a tremendous speed. Warrie’s body was thrown into the wall, and the sword he had been holding was crushed. The surrounding Gundo and Titans also recoiled due to the impact of the cannonball striking Warrie. There was a large pit left on the ground.

"Keughhh…" Warrie’s eyes glared.

Warrie had not felt this kind of helplessness for a long time. He could not move his body well. His bones were about to turn into powder.

‘This doesn’t make sense… I saw the trajectory though…’ Warrie thought.

Warrie was able to read the trajectory, but he could not respond to it since it was too fast. Warrie looked at the monster that had incapacitated him in an instant. It was the Black Titan that was much larger than the Ogres that were standing outside.

The appearance of the Black Titan had changed the atmosphere of the battlefield. The Ogres and other tribes tried to run away, freaked out as if they had seen a dragon. And the Goblins cheered and mocked their enemies.

Clank! Kooong— Baaam—!

The energy cannonball was released again from the back of the Titan's left glove. This time it was thrown to the spot where all the enemy tribes were gathered.

"Keuaaahhh!"

"Run away everyone!"

"We’re all going to die! I'm dying!"

Flesh scattered in all directions. Most of the bodies turned into powder and simply disappeared. It was amazing how Warrie survived the hit from the energy cannonball.

"Hmmm… So… this Titan is from the castle lead class… but is he from the lowest rank?” Perched on top of the walls, Lee Shin devoted his time to analyzing the Destroyer's power and strategy.

"Huh?" Lee Shin looked surprised.

A red spirit approached Lee Shin from afar. Since this spirit had already been transformed into a demon, it had no figure. And the spirit communicated with Lee Shin.

"Oh, really?"

After talking to the demon, Lee Shin absorbed that demon.

Then he focused on the battlefield again. Before Lee Shin could realize, the Ogre had managed to fight past the Titan and came inside. The Ogre was drawing his mana power to the maximum to deal with the Destroyer. Lee Shin climbed down from the wall, thinking it was time for him to step up. Then Lee Shin, who was watching the whole situation on the battlefield on top of the wall, spread his mana out in all directions.

[Enchanted Silver Tree Wand]

A wand made of Silver Trees grown in the Ertel Mountains, where ordinary plants cannot survive due to their high mana concentration.

# You can store mana power.

# Mana Storage: 0/300,000

# At a low probability, it will increase the user's mana power when one’s mana power is saturated.

# Contracts with a low-rank spirit.

Thanks to Lilian's large-scale blood spell and that he had summoned May and Warrie, Lee Shin’s mana power was significantly reduced. However, as he had a mana storage of 300,000 in the Enchanted Silver Tree Wand, Lee Shin had enough mana power.

Lee Shin knew it was now time to end the battle before Gorgin stepped up.

[Gust of Wind]

[Ice Spear]

[Acceleration]

[Torque]

[Penetration]

The blood that scattered all over place throughout this war between the Goblins and the other tribes with the Ogre in lead, had dried up. Those tribes could detect a change in the rapidly decreasing temperature. And the Destroyer was the first one to detect this change. It then moved toward Lee Shin quickly.

"What are you doing!" Gorgin panicked and asked.

Gorgin was clueless at Lee Shin’s sudden intrusion. Behind his question, Gorgin was really asking, ‘Are you trying to help those people?’

"Well… I told you," Lee Shin replied.

Lee Shin smirked and made eye contact with Gorgin who was inside the Destroyer.

"That I will kill them all,” Lee Shin finished his sentence.

As Lee Shin’s wand pointed upward, hundreds of Ice Spears were created in a huge mana circle that covered the battlefield.

Blizzard was an inferior edition of the seventh-level mana used by the Great Wizards.

This spell was insignificant compared to the Blizzard, which was one of the main mana used by Lee Shin in his last life. However, it was still powerful enough to go against the Ogre and the tribes on the fifth floor.

Kagagagaak!

Pababaabak!

Every time the Ice Spears that fell from a height stuck into the ground, those tribes were moribund.

"Harpness!" Lee Shin called out.

As the sky was torn apart, a ghost holding a black sickle appeared in the dark void.

- Did you call me?

"Now, it's time for judgment," Lee Shin declared.

- I got it.

Chop! Chop! Chop! Chop!

Harpness’s sickle permeated the darkness and was split into hundreds, striking down on the Ogres and the other monsters that were hit by the Ice Spears.

Lee Shin looked at the Shadow of Death that hung over the battlefield. The shadow Lee Shin had created appeared like a bolt of lightning out of the blue. But for him, it was not a sudden, unplanned move. It was the natural result of his determination. There was no mercy left in the cold eyes of Lee Shin.

"Humaaan—!" The Ogre shouted as he watched the Ice Spears pouring from above.

The Goblins that were nearby collapsed one after another because they could not handle the Fear that came with the loud roar that was filled with anger.

"I’m going to kill you!" The Ogre shouted.

Crunch—!

The Ogre jumped up. Its jump was strong enough that it created a big crater on the ground

“Well, I won’t let you do that. Kieeek!” Gorgin shouted.

Swoosh—!

The Ogre flew at a great speed, but was hit by Destroyer's fist and was sent flying out beyond the castle wall. The Destroyer climbed onto the wall after flinging the Ogre away.

"You're amazing.” Gorgin looked at Lee Shin with trustful eyes.

"No sir, this is nothing compared to what the Destroyer can do," Lee Shin replied.

"I'm sorry," Gorgin said.

"What do you mean?" Lee Shin asked at the sudden apology.

"Nothing, I'll just finish him off,” Gorgin replied.

At those words, the Destroyer disappeared. Lee Shin starred in the direction where the Destroyer had gone.

Kwaaang!

The Ogre and the Destroyer confronted each other. Their powers clashed. When their fists met, a shock wave spread in all directions. Lee Shin saw that scene and shook his head. An Ogre was an Ogre. He did not seem weak in front of that mighty Destroyer.

Kwaaang! Kwang! Kwang! Kwang!

The fierce battle between the two ended earlier than expected. The Ogre that was in a rage, was helplessly beaten up by the Destroyer, which had seemed pretty relaxed. And the battle ended with Gorgin's victory.

"Kieeek! Kill the rest of them! There is no surrender!" Gorgin shouted.

With Gorgin's declaration, the genocide of the Ogres and other tribes began.

* * *

"Here! Have a drink!" Gorgin offered a drink to Lee Shin.

Lee Shin and Gorgin clinked their glasses.

"Thanks to you, we could handle those enemy tribes easily,” Gorgin thanked Lee Shin.

"No, I just did what I needed to do," Lee Shin replied humbly.

"No, I knew you would be great, but... all your reputation was true. Kik!" Gorgin said.

Gorgin drank heavily as if he was in a very good mood, and Lee Shin used his mana power so he did not get drunk.

“I’m just disappointed that I could not catch the Skeleton that was casting spells. Where did he go?” Gorgin asked.

“I know, I wish I knew,” Lee Shin replied.

Lee Shin acted calmly as if he did not know anything about the Skeletons. It was not Warrie nor May who used blood spells, but Lee Shin did not plan on clearing up the misunderstanding.

"By the way, almost all the dead bodies of those Ogres and other tribes have disappeared. I'm pretty sure the Skeleton did it. How the hell did he take all those bodies away?" Gorgin asked Lee Shin as if he was frustrated.

However, Gorgin did not seem to have said it expecting an answer from Lee Shin.

"I've heard that even the imprisoned man has some knowledge of mana," Lee Shin started talking about a topic of his own interest.

"Yes, he did, but not as much as you. This, I can guarantee," Gorgin replied.

"But there is something to learn from everyone. I would like to meet them if you allow me. Would it be possible?” Lee Shin asked politely.

"Hmm... Normally, it is not a place to let outside people in..." Gorgin muttered.

Gorgin seemed to think for a bit. Then, with a slightly red face, he took another sip of alcohol and gave Lee Shin permission to enter the underground prison.

"Thank you," Lee Shin said.

"I will let Chamberlain know,” Gorgin replied.

The drinking party between Lee Shin and Gorgin ended pleasantly.

The next day, Lee Shin entered the underground prison under the guidance of Chamberlain. Lee Shin had already spent more than ten days here on the fifth floor.

He thought he had already spent too much time. Lee Shin was planning on attacking Gorgin if he did not get anything significant by this time. And this idea was put on hold for a while as he entered the underground prison.

"We have registered your mana pattern here. If you stand on the footstool in front of the door, it will read your mana pattern and the system will let you in,” Chamberlain explained.

"Alright, thank you," Lee Shin replied.

When the servant had returned, Lee Shin walked along the hallway of the underground prison. At the bottom, in the underground prison of the lowest floor, there was a human.

Clomp— Clomp— Clomp—

This was a place where only the worst offenders were locked up. It had been a long time since these prisoners had heard human footsteps.

"Give me food..."

Lee Shin stopped walking for a moment when he heard a dying voice.

‘Food?’ Lee Shin thought.

It was a familiar voice that Lee Shin had heard before. Lee Shin walked faster. And when he got there, there was a human hanging on the wall with both his hands and feet tied. It seemed like he had been like this for days. His face was haggard and his muscles were all shriveled up. He had no strength left, such that he could not even raise his head. And he kept asking for food in a small voice.

"Wait… Are you…?"

The human being flinched and stopped muttering when he heard Lee Shin’s voice.

He then lifted his head with difficulty.

"Is… that you…? M-m-m-master…?"

Baek Hyun, who had been missing for a while, was trapped in the Gerpain underground prison.
