The air around that could only be felt by the strong was hot.

They were so quick-witted… This is why she didn’t like rankers.

Though of course, this was something she expected since the moment she came into the tower.

Since the person Zio was looking for was Eun Seok-won, she would definitely be exposed to some extent.

That’s why she covered her face… because she was confident in her ability to look backwards.

She thought the chances of her getting caught would be one in a million.

The reason why she was caught so fast was probably because of the sudden change in her ability.

As soon as she entered the Babel Tower she was bombarded with various buffs. She was so surprised that she forgot to control it.

‘I was off guard…’

No matter what a ranker did, only honey came out.

Who knew it would be this much honey? The scene of balance collapse would make even professional honey suckers cry.

Of course, it wasn’t a big deal since the only ones here would be from channel 1 anyways.

The strange sense of belonging and bonding with each ranker in the channel was very strong.

There was an unwritten rule of not leaking what was being talked about in the channel.

Keeping each other’s secrets was more like a national rule.

‘If a madman broke it, I will bring justice to it.’

Zio was a bystander who pursued non-violence, but the path of absolute was the path of absolute.

‘If they mess around, they could ruin everything…’

She thought she heard somewhere that Jesus, the son of someone from Nazareth, also dealt with a bad businessman who wouldn’t listen.

She was busy with her studies so she didn’t have the time to work hard, but what could she do?

Gyeon Zio’s normal comfort life was more important than the CSAT .

[Your contractor ‘Reader of Fate’ nods his head.]

[He takes out a light stick, and says while shaking it that his baby should do everything she wants to do.]

Anyways, since she was caught.

Gyeon Zio, who hid her power, went straight for her destination.

With every step she took, the eyes of Gyeon Ji-rok, who was following her from behind burned.

It was almost like a laser beam.

‘What, X-men? I thought it was a cyclops.’

“…Leader. What’s wrong with you?”

“Murmur, murmurmur, murmur.”

Speaking to oneself.

Zio ignored it and tried to sit over the sofa in an arrogant manner… but since the sofa was quite large for her body, she ended up pulling her legs together and folding them.

However, there was still quite a bit of charisma chin up.

“Hey, Eun. It seems your situation has improved a bit. Huh?”

“…I don’t know who you are, but that’s rather rude of you…”

“Anchisan.”

Tiger moved his chin.

It meant go back and not leave without notice.

Eun Seok-won smiled cooly.

“It’s still the same. Long time no see. Have you been fine?”

“Up until this morning.”

“You have to do something like seizing the throne to move yourself. Without knowing that you just ran every time when asked to meet. You have learned a good lesson in your last years.”

The seized ‘throne’.

Throne… kings?

It was a quiet conversation with low volume, but that didn’t matter much.

That much was enough for Eun Seok-won’s close aides and the very few top rankers who were listening intently.

A silent astonishment sweeps over them.

Zio cut off the conversation from the outside without batting an eye. Speaking in a dry tone without an accent.

“Old man, don’t mess with me. What are you doing with your worn out body? Do you wish to go straight to the morgue?”

“Jo.”

“Now now, Tiger.”

Eun Seok-won, who stopped him with a gesture, asked.

“Well, how many years are left?”

Gyeon Zio, who was staring at him, answered with her chin resting on her hand.

“2 years at the longest.”

“What about shortest?”

“1 year.”

“I see…”

“Well, who told you to do that? Can you last 5 years like this? I have been kind enough to tell you. So you return the favor with your own hands.”

Zio turned her head away.

One of the special sub skills of ‘Libraryzation’ was called ‘The sand clock of destiny’, it was a watch that showed the time left for one’s life.

It only had one slot open, and Zio chose Eun Seok-won for it as soon as the skill had reached the level of proficiency needed.

The old man was already over 60 since their first meeting.

Gyeon Zio thought he would die first out of all the people she knew.

So when that happened, she didn’t want him to leave without saying goodbye.

Like the father she couldn’t remember.

“Because this is the last time, don’t get angry. Since there is no other way.”

“…”

“I have lived my whole life like this, and only know how to live like this. I have lived far too long to live differently. Isn’t the stubbornness of an old man the scariest thing?”

“…”

“Even if I die, If I can die while challenging myself, then there is no better ending for a hunter. Even though I am worried about my granddaughter who wouldn’t be hurt in my eyes…”

Eun Seok-won smiled at Zio.

It didn’t matter if it was an S-rank or not.

10 years ago.

When Tiger brought the little Zio to him, who never had real children of his own, Gyeon Zio had already become his only granddaughter in the world.

“…Hasn’t the accident already happened?  The bus has left.”

“Ouch, What should I do to catch it again?”

“No. It’s no fun. Fake humor.”

“…Jo, please.”

He pointed at her forehead.

A self inflicted disaster.

Although he had raised her, he was sometimes ignorant and overdid it, after all the kid he was raising was one who had been number 1 on the Korean rankings since elementary school.

How nostalgic, Zio leaned back on the sofa.

“Who cares about the challenge or whatever, making King Zio become a Kong. It’s all spoiled. I’ll take it back soon, so don’t scratch it and keep it well.”

“Ha ha. But it felt good to win 1st place after a long time. It reminds me of the old days.”

“That’s why it’s awkward being second place. If you act well, the only end for the kind and naive is a knife on the back or being pushed from the roof.”

Tiger asked with a wink whether or not she would like to leave now that her job was done. Zio shook her head a little.

“Since I am already here, I’ll take a look at the tutorial.”

[Unique Skill, ‘Libraryzation’ proficiency: 17.208%]

[The trait ‘heart of the dragon’ (legend) ‘magic screen’ growth phase 2]

‘Wait for me, old man. I’ll flip it back over.’

If you listen to the contractor, even in sleep your S-rank will drop.

Even the people who were nagging her to go to the tower on a fictional day had a reason.

She didn’t think such a surprise would be waiting.

Zio looked away and glanced at the status window.

Unlike her poker face, her toes kept wriggling under the table.

The ‘titles’ for the awakened were divided into 2.

One was a ‘unique title’ which referred to the identity of the awakened individual by their natural destiny.

For example, regressors and reincarnation belonged here.

The other was a ‘profession title’ which was divided into ‘first/second/third’.

On this side were several ‘traits’ that were made due to talents and aptitudes of the person.

It could be seen as a job that bloomed accordingly.

In Gyeon Zio’s case, she immediately gained ‘The Great Magician’ as her hidden trait, and  ‘Genius with no effort’ ‘Heart of the dragon’ and ‘Magic Lineage’ were lifted the same time she awakened.

She overcame the limitations of her race with high quality buffs that came from her contractor, and as her proficiency for ‘libraryzation’ increased, she blossomed into ‘The Magician King’.

And when she tried blossoming the trait-related titles, It didn’t go too well.

Like in martial arts novels it was useless if there was no realisation or a  dramatic opportunity.

Zio’s innate magic power was unlimited, but the trait title was still in its 1st stage, so the magic circuit was limited.

Of course, just letting it overflow was enough so she left it alone but…

Since it was currently going up on its own, there was no reason to deny it. Right.

Moreover, the tutorial run.

She wasn’t even participating in it, she was just sitting down yet it was getting stronger?

She was about to feel a little sorry for the honey.

Zio pretended to be calm, interested in the tutorial, and pretended to be an experienced senior ranker evaluating the newvies, therefore threw a serious look at the area beyond the glass.

‘It’s suspicious.’

The tiger, who could notice the corners of her lips rising gently as her feet wriggled, narrowed his eyes.

But just before he could point out something.

[3, 2 ,1]

A familiar countdown in the tower.

Baek Do-hyun closed his eyes.

His heart was large but it felt calm like a late. It felt as if he had been in this state for a few days.

Despite regressing after desperate situations, he was never nervous.

But now he knew.

‘The future can be different.’

Didn’t he experience it for himself?

He met the King, and in march, the memorial ground at Seolleung station disappeared.

First of all… ‘Jo’ was still on mankind’s side.

Baek Do-hyun’s eyes that opened again shined calmly.

‘I can change it. It’s enough.’

Second chance.

Second entrance.

Prior to regression, Baek Do-hyun performed as F-rank under the same conditions for three times.

The final four days.

《Welcome to the Babel tower, Baek Do-hyun.》

《The tutorial has started.》

And today, he planned on breaking the tower’s record as the new number 1 rider.
