"Ready?" Say me to Renald beside me while we hold our weapons.
"In three... two...." Say Renald but suddenly the Lizardman High Soldier with fast speed starts to dash.
Two versus two, we leap from it. I almost get that attack but, Renald seems easy to avoid that attack.
"For Glory!" Shout Renald.
I get buff, I try to not get stabbed by that attack. The one of Lizardman High Soldiers attacks me fastly. I try to counter it but it is too fast! As the result, I leap back and think. I can't get near to him because my attack range is small. The Lizardman stares at me waiting for me to attack. I decide to run in a cycle surrounding him to see what he can do.
I am running but, the eyes of Lizardman can follow my step. The magic! I leap to the side. Fiuhh... I still can avoid that magic attack from Lizardman King. Normally, Lizardman King has an enormous STR higher than Goblin King but, this is our lucky to face Lizardman King wizard type. Still, the magic from him is dangerous. The Lizardman doesn't give me a break. I get attacked by Lizardman High Soldier and Lizardman King as support. I leap back and run in a cycle around him. I will use the combo that player WEO assassin does.
Horizontal Slash!
I do Horizontal Slash with mana as I run in a cycle around him. He deflects it! What?! That spear is really troublesome. I need to break it first. Speed goes to maximum! With my high speed and high DEX from Lizardman High Soldier, we contest our battle mastery. My stamina is running down quickly and the spear does not have a sign to break. Run! Run! I force my stamina to do what I need. The spear break! Now is my chance! I stop running and dash toward the Lizardman High Soldier. I push it to the ground and stab his eyes first. He screams because of pain.
"Sorry..." Say me.
I grab my dagger with my two hands and stab it inside his mouth because he is screaming. I rotate it and stab his brain.
"Hah... Hah... Why is the Lizardman King not attacking?" Say me while trying to stand up because my stamina and mana are low. I look around me and see Renald trying to attack Lizardman King. He fails because the Lizardman King enchants a shield around him. I don't really recognize what he did while I fought this Lizardman.
I take the Lizardman spear and throw it to the Lizardman King that still sitting on the throne chair.
"Hah!!!" Shout me while throwing the spear.
In the second I follow the spear that I throw while running. Lizardman King still focuses on attacking Renald not knowing I attack him from the side. Does Renald use taunt skills? I think he is.
Lizardman King finally recognizes my attack. He still can deflect that spear by moving his shield! The spear deflected and fell down on the floor. I leap and try to attack him. That Lizardman can deflect my attack with his shield! I take the Karambit and try to thrust him but, he enchants another shield. On the other way, Renald dashes toward Lizardman King and tries to attack him with his sword. Nothing happens, because he still can enchant another shield. We jump back and land on the floor.
I and Renald look at each other. The Lizardman King enchants four fireballs toward us.
"Wanna try crazy things? pant* pant*" Say me to Renald.
"I am ready anytime pant* pant*" Say Renald while smirking at me.
At the time he shot that fireball, we nodded agreeing with each other and we started to run in the same direction with the fireball.
The Fireballs are flying toward us. We can avoid it perfectly with our speed.
We jump as high as possible on the wall and Dash!!!
The wall cracked and we are flying with high speed at Lizardman King. Lizardman King is shocked, he enchants two shields to cover him.
I hold Renald's hand.
"Throw me!!"
He grabbed it and swung my body to add additional speed for me. To unlimited and beyond!!
Renald landed on the floor and started to dash again at that second. I come first at Lizardman King. I try to thrust him and he is ready for that. After nearly enough, I cancel my daggers, grab the shield, and kick his body from below the shield by swinging my body with my hands. His body is flying away to the sky from the throne seat.
Not stopping from that, I jump to that body, summon my weapon, and slash him.
He still deflects it with his shield. I am not giving up!! I slash it, slash it, and slash it until it breaks. That Lizardman is smirking but suddenly, he gets stabbed from behind by Renald's sword. We did it!
We land on the floor.
"Pant* pant* " I exhale my breath and look at his body. Sorry, but we need to your kind not giving any obstruction to our world.
"Good job pant* pant*" Say Renald didn't believe it that we did it.
"Pant* pant* pant* You look in trouble because don't have attack skill." Say me while setting my breath because of tired.
"That's really troublesome you know? Pant* pant*"
The gate to the roof is open. How did I know that this Glory Tower has only two floors? That's simple because of the theme that this tower brought. There are Lizardman village, this thing is always followed up by the city of Lizardman, War of Lizardman, and Lizardman Throne Room. The last floor is the final boss on the last floor. We call it the Sub-Theme that Raid Area brought. If the final boss in the roof, there is a small chance that this final boss follow the theme on the floor below it. Because of this, some of the players debate that the last floor or the roof floor is not counted to be a floor in the Tower because the Tower does not follow the five multiple floors like the Dungeon and the other Raid Areas where there is always a boss in every five floor we encounter.
We walk to the gate. While we walk, the system pops out a notification. I click it and it appears a transparent window that describes Run Skill. Finally, I get that skill. I close the window and get inside the gate where Renald waiting for me.
"There is nothing in here." Say me.
We keep silent. There are no monsters, buildings, or something that we must do to complete and erase this tower's existence.
Suddenly, the floor is shaking. Then, the purple crystal appears from the ground and goes up slowly.
"Is this the core?" Say me while looking at the purple crystal.
"Why don't you try to break it." Say Renald while he takes his sword and uses the For Glory! skill.
"I can't, I don't have the secondary weapon." Say me while looking toward Renald.
Renald understand my situation and stop using For Glory! skill. He dashes toward the crystal and tries to break it. The sword is deflected. I summon my weapon and help Renald break that crystal. Don't know if that works or not but, we still try it.
After a while, the crystal is broken. We desummon our weapons and look toward what is inside the crystal. There is nothing inside it.
"Is this the end?" Say me while looking at Renald.
"I think it is." Say Renald while looking at the crystal.
Suddenly, the Tower is shaking and the portal opens up.
We run to the portal as fast as we can. After near the portal, we jumped to prevent us from falling after the Tower.
The portal connected to the entrance of this tower. We rolling as we get out of the portal. We look behind us and the Tower starts to disappear. Really, how does this thin Tower have a large room inside it?
The system appears in front of us with "Congratulations, you are the first human that conquered the Glory Tower." with a clap emote below it written there. The system appears again with "The Hall Of Fame tab is added to the system." After that, we get our reward after conquering the Tower. Again, I got the most contribution when we conquered the Tower.
"What you got?" Say me to Renald beside me.
"I got these." Say Renald while holding the blue and red liquid inside the vial with the skill book.
After we invade Raid Area, the skill book has a chance to get 60%. But the skill is always random. Even if that skill is random, the skill is always followed by what is inside the tower. I got the skill book too with one purple liquid inside the vial.
This liquid inside a vial is called a potion. There are many potions with many colors in the WEO. These blue, red, and purple are some of them. Blue potion is for recovering our mana. The color of blue is mimicking the color of mana inside the vein. I wonder if we, the Giver have this kind of characteristic too. Red potion is for recovering our health. I think doctors must retire because of this cheat potion. It can cover your wound but, just that. The blood that you lost can't be recovered. Purple potion is for adding additional health to the player. Because there is no health bar, I don't really know how to use it.
We use the skill book after we get it. The skill book does not give us a skill just as we use it. We must pass the challenge it's given. Renald seems annoyed after he uses it.
"What's wrong?" Say me after seeing Renald's face.
"Just... I must kill fifty monsters to obtain Unbending Will." Say Renald after he touches the system I think? It's looks like he touching the air beside me.
"How about you?" Say Renald get interested in what I've got.
"This is!" Say me surprised.
"What you got?" Say Renald gets more curious.
"I got Stab skill." Say me while smirking at Renald.
"Sigh* Why have you always got attack skill, I want it too." Say Renald.
"Don't mind..." Say me while patting his back.
"Let's go back to the group." Say me.
"You are right, the coffee still waiting for me." Say Renald get excited again.
"You must stop it in a while." Say me.
Renald doesn't really hear what I say and just starts to run. I am running too.
The sun is already set!? Is that tower time scale bigger? But, Eka calls us and still speaks normally, not like he speaks faster or something.
We arrive on the main road and follow the road to the east. I hope they don't get attacked by some monster.
After a while, the others seem to stop their travel. Are they waiting for us?
We arrive in the caravan.
"Ah, there you are!" Say Eka after recognizing us.
He walks to us and grabs Renald's hand.
"W-wait, what are you doing?" Say Renald confused.
"Let's change!" Say Eka while looking at Renald's face and a bit angry.
It seems Eka is trying to teach the soldier to be a Giver. He is tired and asks, maybe force Renald to swap his position. I just smirk and speechless at what they do in front of me. I think this is like normal days on our travel. The travel took more time than we expected. That's okay I think, all of them are still alive.
