Return of The Unrivaled Spear Knight
Chapter 277
On the 21st floor of the Tower of Trials, a woman stood amidst scattered metal scraps.
“Haah— Haah—”
The woman looked, to put it bluntly, ghastly. Her blue waterfall-like hair was tangled with clumps of blood. Her eyes, once filled with sparks, were stained with exhaustion.
But still, she was very beautiful.
“No matter how many times I look at you, I still can’t get used to those looks,” Theta muttered, shaking his head.
Iceline’s eyebrows twitched.
“Are you trying to make a move right now?”
“But I’m being sincere.”
“All the men I’ve met have been like that. They all say stuff like, ‘But I’m being sincere’ or ‘I’m in awe’... I’m used to being approached with all sorts of rhetoric.”
Theta burst into laughter at Iceline’s cold attitude.
“If you don't like it, then why don't you keep wearing that amazing artifact?”
“You didn't believe me when I told you that I'm the daughter of the extinct Rebrecca family.”
“Well...” Theta trailed off with a sly smile.
At that strange smile, Iceline's beautiful brows furrowed once more.
“No way, you knew?”
“Well, who would risk their life to tell a lie like that?”
“Then...”
“I noticed the subtle change in your mana, but I didn’t know what it was. I couldn’t imagine that an artifact could change your appearance like that...”
Theta wiped the joviality off of his face.
“But in all seriousness... If we escape here safely, do you intend to patent that artifact you called Layphon?”
“Patent?” Iceline tilted her head in confusion.
Theta nodded in reply.
“Patent the artifact in your name, and the Magic Tower will take charge of sales. Of course, they’ll take a certain fee from you, but—”
“How much of a cut are we talking about?”
“Very low. About ten percent of the sales revenue?”
Theta's only eye sparkled when Iceline seemed receptive to the idea.
“You won’t take a loss. If I take over the sales... then, when someone else might sell ten, I’ll sell one hundred. On top of that, I’ll make sure there’s a bigger profit margin.”
“....”
“My friends in the Magic Tower have a nickname for me: the ‘Con Man of the Magic Tower.’”
Iceline seemed to forget their situation for a long moment while she deeply pondered Theta’s proposition.
Money. Money was good. The more, the better. The more products she sold, the more money she’d have.
As the scale of her operation grew larger, her dream could become a reality, as a bonus.
Buying a huge tract of land in the southern part of the continent and rebuilding her fallen family. Buying a whole remote island in the lower part of the kingdom of Foldran with warm sunlight and a pleasant sea breeze, and a great view of the beautifully glistening blue ocean. She’d build a house that was just the right size—not too big, not too small—where she could feel the pleasant breeze of a forest.
For a moment, she forgot about survival and revenge and just thought about a future where she could enjoy the sweet taste of life.
But she couldn’t live alone on that remote island. She needed one more person.
Alone... with him...
“Ahh!” Iceline squealed. Her face slowly flushed red as she muttered to herself. “I have another reason to escape now.”
“Huh?” Theta was confused.
Iceline’s face hardened as she looked at Theta gazing at her blankly.
“In order to do that, aren’t there a few conditions that we have to meet first?”
“....”
“Especially since right now, the present Magic Tower and you aren’t...”
Theta interrupted before she could continue.
“It’s just temporary. I will kill Evergrant con Aswald with my own hands.”
The atmosphere cooled instantly. Theta suddenly seemed like a feral beast to Iceline.
She quickly changed the topic.
A face vaguely came to mind. When Theta figured it out, he couldn’t be more shocked.
“Joshua Sanders?” Theta blurted with palpable surprise. “Were you close with him?”
“I’m not exactly sure if he’ll come—”
“Right,” Theta cut her off. “If he brings troops, he could easily turn the situation our way...”
He nodded; his expression had become much brighter. Having faced him in person, Theta knew what kind of person Joshua was.
“He’ll probably come alone.”
“What?”
“He’s that kind of person. He tries to handle pretty much everything by himself.”
Theta’s positivity deflated after realizing how likely it was that Iceline was right.
“So... you’re saying that a single person is going to fight against thousands of mages from the Magic Tower, within a week?”
“....”
Iceline’s mouth remained firmly shut. Theta could only take her silence as a “yes.”
“This is...”
Theta was dejected.
Earlier, Iceline had no doubts that Joshua and his inhuman, god-like strength could save them from this predicament. But after experiencing the 20th floor, doubts started forming.
“Now... we have to find a way out on our own,” Theta bemoaned.
They didn’t know that what they thought was a crisis biting at their heels was actually a miracle.
***
On the 17th floor of the Tower of Trials, where Iceline and Theta had first fallen, the two members of the Seven Mages raised their voices at the hundred mages accompanying them.
“They’re just Lizardmen! Clean them up quickly and move on to the next floor!”
“Mages with depleted mana go to the rear! Second-line mages support them!”
“They are weak against fire magic, so mages specializing in fire go forward once recovered!”
The mages moved in perfect harmony according to their superiors’ orders.
“KWAAAAK!”
The screams of the monsters filled the interior of the room, accompanied by the acrid smell of something burning. Zephyros, the seat of Red Flames, watched the scene with a satisfied smile.
“It’s going smoothly.”
“Only because we have enough people,” said Scorpino, the seat of the Void.
“If I knew there was no limit on the number of wizards that I could bring, I would’ve brought more of them.”
“This is enough to catch two rats.”
“That’s true.” Zephyros nodded in agreement.
“Do you think it’s true that Thetapirion has reached Class 7? Because, if so...” Scorpino asked.
“He suffered a great loss by the Circle and was injured. He’s missing an eye, so the two of us should be enough.”
“That’s good, then.”
Zephyros looked at the few remaining monsters and took a step forward.
“Is this the end of the hypocrisy? Our dreams will soon come true.”
“Mr. Evergrant won’t be satisfied with the Magic Empire. Yes, he is working with Avalon for now, but after that?” Scorpino smiled grimly before continuing. “Only for us wizards—”
“ARGGGH!”
“...!”
Scorpino’s monologue came to an abrupt halt when he heard a roar coming from the rear, not the front. All the wizards, including the two of the Seven, stopped what they were doing at the same time and turned their heads.
“You’ve wasted more time than you thought.”
The mages had the privilege of witnessing the new record time for climbing the Tower of Trails.
The man with a red spear coming at them had taken only half a day to reach the 17th floor where it had taken them an entire week to get there.
“I’ll clean up now.”
The man hefted his spear and flashed them a smile.
His arrival was nothing short of a miracle to Theta and Iceline.
Joshua was here.
