The Great Ancient Wizard, Attack the Tower (2)
Five minutes into the tower, Evan was sure.
“It’s not DLC. This is an independent title.”
Among the world-famous RPGs, there was a type of title that just ended the entire game in one dungeon. A game where the player aimed to completely conquer one vast space where many secrets were hidden. A subgenre called ‘Metroidvania’. It had a unique charm because it worked only in a limited space and grew, upgrading weapons and skills. In the case of Yo-Ma Great War 3, the story unfolded around the Sherden Dungeon. Still, if you moved to the mid to late half, you would be eliminated here because there were many cases where you would be active outside of the dungeon city of Sherden.
The majority of Yo-Ma Great War fans (not just the fanatics!), including Yeo Ban-min from the previous life, thought that Yo-Ma Great War 3 succeeded in capturing all the charms of Metroidvania, the traditional RPG. However, some speculated that the production team was originally trying to limit the play environment of Yo-Ma Great War 3 to only 1 Sherden dungeon based on its vastness and meticulous composition.
‘But the perfect model was here…’
What the tower was intended for is obvious. The three super-sized dungeons would be scattered far into the world in the future to later introduce a demon dungeon in the Demon Realm. It was a prototype!
‘The structure is clearly divided by floors, and there is no particular trap on the first floor, and only monsters pop out little by little. Unlike what can be seen on the outside, the interior is extremely spacious.’
Wasn’t this too familiar? It was just like the Sherden and other modern super-sized dungeons!
‘The experimental stage before creating a super-sized dungeon on the ground…maybe. The massive dungeon on the ground had a distinct purpose as a bridgehead to invade Middle Earth.’
However, cracks in the intermediate system were appearing here and there. At that time, there was no reason for the Devil to make a dungeon. Evan speculated that the tower was now built for a different purpose but was later used to create a dungeon in the middle.
“Then what is the purpose of this tower at this stage? It’s simple.”
The Devil was the creator of the Demon Tribe. He experimented with many strange and cruel things, thinking about how to create a stronger, eviler, and more diverse Demon Tribe. The same must be true of this tower.
“The coveted decision of Dark Magic from the top floor of the tower, the Hell Ruby. The Demons enter the tower after it. Inside the tower, there are countless traps and monsters made by the power of the Devil. The Demon Tribes get through them and climb the tower to strengthen…to become like the Devil.’
If they looked at the basic structure, they could say it’s possible. But they still couldn’t guarantee what would happen. Still, as soon as Evan found out, there was one thing he had to do.
“I’m going to break it.”
There was no problem if the Demon Tribes were dying here at their own will. However, just as Evan used the Sherden Dungeon to train a knight with absurd power, the problem was that the tower could also create a monster that exceeded the expectations of the tower’s founder.
Evan doesn’t know what happened to this tower and its history. Perhaps the Imugi ate the Hell Ruby after waiting and went somewhere else as it pleased, and the tower sank due to the Demon Tribes’ outburst. However, it was ridiculous to leave such a dangerous possibility unattended because nothing special happened in the original history.
‘No…if I break the tower now, I may not get Hell Ruby, so let’s focus on getting Hell Ruby for now.’
Dealing with this Imugi and breaking the tower could be done afterward. In conclusion, Evan began to move inside the tower. Monsters sprang up and attacked here and there, but Evan crushed them, and they disappeared because of Annihilation.
‘It’s comfortable to use the powers around me without having to control it.’
Evan had not thought that his idea wasn’t normal for a human being. Anyway, after going straight for about 30 minutes, a huge door appeared with a chilling sensation beyond it. Maybe it was the boss.
“Unlike Sherden, this tower has a boss on every floor.”
-Raaaawwrrrr!
As soon as he opened the door without hesitation, a deformed hand with seven evil nails hit him. And the next moment, it decomposed and dissipated. Evan murmured regretfully, absorbing the remaining blood of the boss.
“I wanted to see its face first…”
What’s the hurry? He wouldn’t be able to write a proper strategy article like this! When Evan was sad and started to infer the boss’s appearance, starting with the nails that had just struck him, a violent vibration arose in the room, and a black stone statue that he had seen a lot from somewhere else appeared.
“Ah.”
Evan inadvertently let out a noise. Was it because the naked body of a woman carved out of stone was so beautiful? No, it looked exactly like the statue of a demon placed in the Sherden Dungeon.
‘If I come into contact with that now, will I get caught by the Devil?’
No, was his existence discovered the moment he entered the Demon Realm? Anyway, the Devil wasn’t the type to move so quickly, and even if his existence was discovered, he was a person that needed to be fought, so there was no need to avoid him. Even if he really showed up here…the whole party had evacuated into the Necklace World, so it would be nice to have a cool fight without worrying about the others.
“All right.”
Evan strengthened his mind and slowly approached the statue. At that moment, something happened that didn’t happen at the Sherden Dungeon. The two eyes of the statue opened, and the black eyes looked straight at Evan as if they would absorb all the light of the world.
-You’ve shown me the possibility of a great Demon. I’ll share the power of this dungeon with you.

“What?”
Evan’s eyes glared at the voice that sounded like both a man and a woman. Was it true that the God of this dungeon is talking to him personally? However, before he was able to question it, heavy Dark Magic rose from the statue. It went straight to Evan’s…boots and was absorbed, causing them to glisten. It had a strangely nice gloss compared to before.
“…Is this?”
‘It’s been vague since I entered the tower, but maybe these boots are recognized as a separate Demon…?’
However, as long as the eyes of the Devil weren’t sprained, there was no way to ignore Evan and judge the boots as a part of the Demon Tribe, so the voice from the statue in front of him was likely to be a macro. In fact, if you thought about it, there must not be only one or two Demons in the tower, but there was no way that Devil would look at them and have a conversation.
“Is there a statue on each floor that pumps Dark Magic like this? In other words, apart from the Hell Ruby, each floor has a means of strengthening Demons…oh, a level up! This is a level-up event!
The modern super-sized dungeon had risen to the dungeon’s level as a blessing from God every time you cleared one floor. But he thought that God couldn’t influence the tower for the Demon Tribe used Dark Magic and that it wasn’t related to the level-up…he couldn’t believe the Devil had this arrangement!
‘Let’s see. This is how the Yo-Ma Great War series works…’
Evan looked up in admiration of the crew, who didn’t even know of his existence. The stairs leading up to the second floor had already appeared.
“Oh, before that.”
Evan reached for the statue and grabbed it. The statue was crushed without any trace, and the bright Dark Magic was absorbed again into his boots. He strengthened his boots with the reward of clearing the dungeon, then broke the statue to strengthen them again! That was how it was supposed to be! However, Evan’s expression wasn’t that bright.
“Well, it’s a little different from the Dark Magic I absorbed earlier…”
To be exact, the Dark Magic that was handed out by the statue itself was special. It wasn’t pure Dark Magic, though it seemed to have been processed once, purified…yes, it was a Dark Magic with a strange feeling. If Evan had been a Demon, he could have taken the Dark Magic himself and analyzed it, but it was unfortunate that he couldn’t.
‘Anyway, let’s go.’
Evan shrugged and headed up the stairs. But he didn’t realize that the stairs were a little different than before he broke the statue.

The leap Elizabeth took was the longest of all she had ever made. She felt like she was breaking something in the middle, and she felt like someone was screaming. But it was finally possible to land safely. She and Eir, and with Rose, the beautiful little Mahwa queen.
“Where are we…?”
“Wow, what a familiar energy!”
Elizabeth looked all over the red and black world with a question mark over her head. Somehow the air felt hostile to her, but the destroyer’s power didn’t give in to this weak energy. On the other hand, Eir looked around with a brighter look than when she was in the ancient forest, but somehow she also seemed to be growing very slowly.
“My God.”
And as soon as they arrived here, Rose naturally realized everything and became contemplative.
“This is the Demon Realm! What the hell have you done, you little girl!”
“The Demon Realm? I ran into here because Oppa is here.”
“Then the other kid must be here, too! You would’ve been in big trouble if I didn’t hold on to you…!”
Elizabeth was none of Rose’s business, but she quickly grabbed her because she was the younger sister of Evan, her friend (at least she thought so). Above all, her precious daughter, Eir…for now, she had to applaud herself for acting instinctively. What kind of disaster would have happened if only the two little girls had fallen into the Demon Realm!
“Demon Realm? The Demon Realm is a great place!”
Meanwhile, Eir, who was influenced by Rose, was smiling broadly at the Dark Magic surrounding her.
“It’s not the time to do this; we need to find a safe place first.”
Rose had become the leader of the little girls, stroking her forehead. She didn’t do that when she reigned in this world, but she had changed after meeting Bernard.
“I see a building there; let’s go!”
Elizabeth spoke energetically and pointed her finger at something. There stood a huge black tower that rose so high that the top was invisible.
