Chapter 126

Wakamou knows that other Climbers also have a ‘Complete Strategy Layer.’

Occasionally, even at the Incheon Tower, Climbers would emerge just to have fan meetings with Wakamou.

Fortunately, there were no Climbers who boldly challenged him for ownership of that layer.

To the point where Incheon Tower gained a reputation as a place where you could have a fan meeting with Wakamou if you obtained a Complete Strategy Layer.

Anyway, naturally, if the [Climber] is ridiculously strong, the ‘Tower’ presents challenges befitting their strength.

It’s just that Wakamou wonders if he is the only one going through this experience.

Don’t other combat-oriented Legendary Classes skip layers at once in such a manner?

Wouldn’t strong Climbers like the American Man-eater or non-Legendary Class Climbers have had the same experiences as Wakamou?

──To conclude, the answer was “yes.”

However, those who experienced it were a small minority, and they did not particularly want to share that special experience with others.

After all, if the Tower is talking to you willingly, it signifies being chosen as a true Climber.

That’s why Climbers focused on Wakamou’s broadcast.

Only the strongest Climbers could face the dreadful challenges prepared directly by the Tower.

Moreover, due to the [Great Cataclysm], the variety of Monsters appearing had drastically increased, and Wakamou was the first to experience rare Monsters with special abilities.

Whether he liked it or not, Wakamou’s subscriber count was destined to grow day by day.

‘Gathering the rewards from the 50th to the 100th floor all at once—isn’t that kind of shady?’

Consuming the reward for 10 entire floors all at once.

Without a Complete Strategy Layer, Wakamou faced severe reward penalties to the extent that he couldn’t receive adequate rewards or even acquire a skill.

The more he climbed in that state, the harder the challenges became──anyone could sense the hidden malice.

So, in the meantime, he had no choice but to ascend the [Korean Tower] or use the over 100,000 coins piled up in the 【Tower Coin Shop】.

‘Besides that, why don’t they give me Tower Coins…?’

Suddenly, Wakamou recalled seeing a notification about a reward for the 40th floor but realized he didn’t receive any Tower Coins.

‘…..Seriously, no way, right?’

[Idols cannot acquire [Tower Coins] through clearing the Tower.]

What’s the benefit of this damned profession, anyway?

I mean, I’m genuinely curious. Is this the Tower’s ploy to make me hate my beloved VTubers?

Even if my life were dedicated to loving and serving VTubers….tower… I won’t regret becoming an Idol because of your schemes…!!

‘What they want is for me to register a ton of skills on my Companion, isn’t it?’

It seems a waste to equip special [skills] like Plum Blossom Swordsmanship. A big waste.

Because unlike me, who has to execute them directly, other Climbers would be able to use them just by obtaining them.

“First…let’s check the 40th floor rewards.”

[Please choose 2 rewards]

[Job-specific Skill 【VTuber Synergy】]

-Set up the [Totem] of a subordinate VTuber.

-The effects vary according to the class of the affiliated VTuber.

[Returning Tribute]

-You can buy the skills of [Climbers] you have raised.

-Includes [VTubers] you have trained as well.

[Summoned Believer]

-Summon the affiliated [Climbers] to the Tower.

SDVIMVFoanVzY1YwSVhjamMzUkt1Uk1oK0sya3NRU1YxcUQyKzVnbkpjMlpqLzNxUGJvbjYvSDRBcmR4eWVQWA

-The mana consumption is proportional to the Climber’s strength.

[Job-specific Skill 【Receiving Tribute】]

-Receive mana as tribute from viewers.

“2 options…?”

Although there’s the [Great Cataclysm], given my high rank, there seem to be more benefits than expected that I don’t even know about.

Why am I being given 2 rewards at once….considering I have to climb 6 layers after choosing 2 here and gathering what’s obtained…..

[[Summoned Believer] skill acquired!]

[[Job-specific Skill 【Receiving Tribute】] skill acquired!]

After much contemplation, I chose these two.

Honestly, I want [Returning Tribute] that allows purchasing skills, but acquiring a skill and being able to execute it, even if theoretically possible, are two separate issues.

Also, the VTuber synergy is unclear whether it benefits me or my allies, and the phrase about setting up a subordinate VTuber’s totem seemed suspicious, so I put it on hold.

Thus, the remaining 2 were naturally chosen.

If you form a [Party] and climb the tower, penalties naturally apply, increasing difficulty, but summoning them with a [skill] after initiation could be a different story?

Next, there’s [Receiving Tribute]─ not sure what to think of this.

Like, is it rapid mana recharge? Even if you receive mana as a tribute, ordinary people without mana can’t give it, can they?

“Hah~ I don’t get it.”

Scratching his head, Wakamou packed the 2 skills and began ascending the stairs to the 50th floor.

[Climbing the Kyoto Tower’s 50th floor world]

-O idol who is worshiped. Demonstrate your will to everyone.

-Overcome, defeat, prove your strength and stand at the pinnacle!

-[Taking the Hell Trial] of [Kyoto Tower].

-The current difficulty is 20 times for all 10 floors combined.

[Platinum Achievement Condition]

-Defeat the leader of the Oni, Onra (0/1)

“What?!”

-You bastard, LOL

-“2 times” including all floors.

-Then the next floor, does it mean it’s 40 times the difficulty???

-We still don’t know if it’s multiplying or adding.

-If unlucky, it could be 80 times or even 400 times the difficulty.

-????? Going crazy???

[If you give up, you can climb through regular climbing. However, you cannot create a Complete Strategy Layer]

-“Scared?”

-This bastard scratches here?

-LOL

-The insidious Kyoto Tower…!!!

-Have you gone mad!!

-Wow, increasing difficulty for being strong, with threats no less.

-Kyoto Tower not wanting to become the American Tower.

-“Must survive.”

-This is Kyoto culture~ remarkable indeed~

-Unbelievable.

“[Die, you insignificant worm!──!!!]”

Before Wakamou could argue, a giant with red skin, donned in leopard skin around his lower half, charged while shouting.

The massive club in its hand was fiery and wrapped in lightning. Its face contorted like a wrathful demon was genuinely ghost-like.

The towering horns would hint to any who lived in Japan about what sort of creature stood before them.

The Oni, a monster that devours humans, swung the massive club at Wakamou, and Wakamou raised his palm to intercept it.

Using the [Object Interaction] skill to consume mana and draw the club into the ground with invisible power, Wakamou clenched his fist tightly.

Focusing mana into one point, Wakamou used [Idol’s Minerals] to create a [Rare Metal] with the shine of a diamond, sending it skyrocketing toward the Oni’s face.

With the extreme art [NvWa Shrine (女媧迅典)] and [Idol’s Thunder], Wakamou became thunder and accelerated─consuming mana to speed up with [Idol’s Flames], a triple gearshift acceleration fist slammed into the Oni’s face, making its massive body stagger.

Before it could tilt its head back, feeling the thick leather and sturdy bones with vividly etched sensation, Wakamou unraveled the cracked mineral fist and twisted his body.

Casting [Idol’s Storm], Wakamou encircled his leg with a visibly intense storm, applying centripetal force with rotation and focusing mana at his toes through [Mana Manipulation], and swung his leg after casting [Weight of Faith] to its maximum.

Just before hitting the impact point, Wakamou severed the leg with a ferocious stream, directly striking the Oni’s face, tearing and gouging the skin as the wild typhoon erupted like a wild mustang, plunging with shockwaves, knocking the Oni down.

A lightning bolt struck overhead at Wakamou.

But catching it with his hand, Wakamou redirected it back to the Oni with [Idol’s Thunder] delivering a brilliant flash.

Such an intense light that it would be hard to see what transpired on the screen, paired with the Oni’s wailing roar.

When the light began to fade, what appeared was the Oni with its face horribly revealed with white bone, raising its club to stand, yet there was no sign of Wakamou.

But before the Oni perplexed by Wakamou’s absence for a brief moment.

Rumble─

As thunder resounded again, and a shadow loomed over its head, the Oni craned its neck upward.

Wakamou, using [Model Adjustment] to grow to a colossal 10m size, crushed the Oni underfoot with an increased leg weight using [Weight of Faith].

With a resounding thud, the ground cracked and began to depress, caving inwards.

Unfazed, Wakamou heaved his arms onto the legs with all his strength and suppressed it, nearly reaching two million subscribers─ gritting his teeth about whether to endure this.

Is it why it’s called supernatural?

The Oni rather grasped Wakamou’s leg with its hands and threw him to the opposite ground with all its might.

As the size increased, the damage was also widespread, and with the mana dramatically consumed, Wakamou thought, incredulous that such an unreasonable occurrence stood true.

Returning to original size, and using [Idol’s Reality] to slip out from the bound leg, Wakamou cast [Idol’s Form] to create countless clones of himself, simultaneously rushing in.

Seeing the Wakamou clones swarm from all sides, the Oni inhaled deeply and released a mana-infused roar that tore them apart.

“[Where are you hiding, you deceitful fox wench!!]”

-What the, where did he go?

-????

-Can’t really see him?

The camera moved frantically, looking, yet Wakamou was nowhere to be found.

On an empty wilderness, Wakamou’s only method to hide was becoming invisible.

Thus, the guess held that he must have turned invisible or employed his signature space-based skills to conceal himself.

“[Urgh…!]”

Until the Oni clutched its chest and suffered grievously…..

The Oni was strong─displaying inexplicable might by dismissing Wakamou’s weight and tossing him aside.

Added to its sturdy and resilient skin, it naturally demanded 『prolonged combat』 from Wakamou.

Even amidst fighting madness, some wounds were gradually healing, posing the most vexing, trouble-inducing, and bothersome request for “conventional combat” upon Wakamou.

Kyoto Tower deployed tactics from the start, appearing to have monitored Wakamou Inarizushi’s combat a fair lot.

It wasn’t a perfect, overwhelming counter. It merely mandated tediously dragging, endurance-heavy battles.

Both broadcast-wise and for Wakamou, it was an exhaustingly challenging type to face.

Merely breathing cost Wakamou Inarizushi mana. A life with an expiry date, that is.

Using skills demanded mana too. Protracting the battle meant demise.

Reinforcing the physique with mana consumed, taking attacks, too, consumed mana.

Even gulping mana potions, if not akin to swallowing water tanks rather than drums, proved challenging to sustain.

Living a razor-edge, thrillingly lavish life where each second’s survival hung by threads when confronting splendid adversities─that’s Wakamou Inarizushi.

The desire to do a [One-second Million Boost] and land a full-strength one-punch shot was there, but having calculated it, it showed at least 300,000 to 400,000, possibly more for tougher ones like the Oni, hence a self-destructive endeavor.

Living with a penalty for hitting too hard demonstrating a hazard in over-exuberance…..

So, perhaps?

In questing for victory in battle, what matters isn’t choice or method; Wakamou squeezed every ounce of intellect scaling the tower, honed stronger to exploit held advantages.

From the Tower’s stance, with a [Non-combatant Class] and legitimately scarce [Attack Skills] Wakamou jumbled together and made unapproved synergies.

“[Graaaahh!!! Uwaaaagh──!!!]”

The raging Oni expelled lava from its mouth.

Wrenched by torment it scratched its chest’s flesh, unleashed lightning, wielding a club that smashed and rent the ground to display immense strength.

A terrifying display of immense might had the demon pant desperately as it sought out Wakamou, hollering to no response.

Pffwaaaaah──!!!

Blood spewed from the chest followed by lapping golden locks extracted as though being birthed, raised arms high.

“Aahaha!!”

-????

-Why go blonde once more?

-What, how’d this happen?

-No way, did he shrink and get eaten???

-??? Oh? Actually yes??

-Been eaten from inside out, huh?

-LOL

-The Oni chose wrong as its opponent….

-Against none other than the White-Faced Gold-Haired!!

“Scream in terror! Go mad! My joy is in it!!”

Wakamou licked the blood adorning his lips and was akin to inebriated by mana’s surge—smiling brilliantly as he emerged from the chest cavity, delivering a tremendous kick to the bewildered Oni’s chin with all might.

The blow delivered with 500,000 mana to bolster physique, manifesting 700,000 feedback damages upon the disgustingly robust Oni’s body, contorting an impression.

Wakamou employed the [VTuber Model] skill to alter “appearance” solely to [White-Faced Gold-Haired].

This form served as a temporary unleashing of limits.

For viewing fans and hostile forces, transforming into this state etched awareness—beware, heed the danger prested.

“Would you acknowledge an Oni like you? Exterminate all Oni but adorable VTuber ones!! You shall be beheaded!!”

-Why no Yokai in Japan anymore, you ask?

-Those not VTubing, none are needed here.

-You eat humans? Eat humans, you die!!

-Battling phantoms, fending for humans…

-The Kojiki even mentions Wakamou doing exorcism. Clear, right?

-No one can split VTubers and my bond!!

-I could endure as a boss, but a fan may not bear this.

-There lies the wreck…

Fans, accustomed that Wakamou transforming even into a beast still revolved around VTubers, merely laughed.

And given Wakamou’s broadcast editing skills improved by the day, brutal sights were distorted real-time.

Reflecting upon numerous severed limbs, there was concern of gory fan arts emerging, but Wakamou quietly brushed the thought aside, proceeding anyway.

Pffwack─!!

More [White-Faced Gold-Haired] figures protruded from the pierced cavity.

Reaffirming, the [VTuber Model] altered visual appearance….and Wakamou had 3 clones.

With quick efficiency, threefold White-Faced Gold-Haired emerged with one last extracting the entirety of the Oni’s heart, flinging it onto the ground as they cornered the Oni from the front.

As the Oni kneeled on one knee reeling, 4 White-Faced Gold-Haired pounced on it, brandishing hands transformed into swords.

The glimmering swords of four shined as they decapitated, the Oni’s head soared skyward.

“Phantom extermination has always been beheading, huh?”

-Indeed.

-That’s right….

-Does any dissent actually exist?
-Is it possible?

-“Oni Decapitation”

-This is the power of the Demon Slayer Corps…!

-But isn’t it way too tough from the start?

“Yeah, it’s really tough… But I have a way to recover!!”

Wakamou smiled slyly at the worried believers.

Despite the viewers saying not to laugh because of his eerie appearance as a white-faced golden demon, Wakamou ignored them and opened a screen.

“Look, believers. The Virtual Live EN’s 1st generation Myth Group had a 4th-year anniversary concert? Our captain released a new song and is planning a solo concert soon.”

-Promoting in this situation?

-The leader’s power comes from VTuber.

-So if we eliminate all VTubers, the leader would vanish too?

-That’d be the end of humanity then.

-Why are you curious, believer? Haven’t you seen the movies?

-It’s always that one attention seeker that starts trouble…

-Asuka would probably filter them out beforehand, lol.

-How can someone talk only about VTuber broadcasts whenever they open their mouth…

“Our Empress did a broadcast drinking and chatting on her birthday too. Watch it! Watch it!!!”

-Yes, yes…

-Sob… It’s better than subscribing and getting 100 clips, sob…

-The archived videos were fun to watch…

-The leader only clips interesting scenes.

-In some way, quite the professional….

-If the leader doesn’t clip you, it means you have no talent, yep…

-This leader even uploads clips of VTubers on their first day. Crazy dude.

-Truly living the life of a beast.

Deliberately getting eaten by an Oni and gnawing his way out from the inside, ripping out its heart, and beheading it—Wakamou resorted to quite brutal methods to end it quickly, desperately trying to change the broadcast’s flow.

With nine tails flicking smoothly, four white-faced golden demons gathered, talking about this VTuber, how cute this Oni VTuber was, and roughly discussing their schedule so the believers couldn’t come to their senses.

Female viewers might not know, but the male viewers’ intelligence would automatically drop seeing four large chests assembled.

Wakamou, being a man himself, understood it well…!! And it seemed effective as everyone enjoyed going uwu uwu…

‘Let’s head to the 60th floor straight away…!’

“Alright then! Everyone! What’s the etiquette?”

“””Jumping is the etiquette!!”””

[Climbing the Kyoto Tower 60th-floor world]

-O idol, worshipped by all. Show thy will to all men.

-Overcome, defeat, and prove your strength by standing at the summit!

-[Kyoto Tower]’s [Trial of Hell] is underway.

-The current difficulty is [40 times] the entire 20th floor combined.

[Platinum achievement condition]

-[Defeat Momotaro, who has made subordinates] (0/1)

“40 times…!”

-Then how many times for the 100th floor?

-Don’t know yet, it could be 80 times next.

-A total disaster, really, lol.

-The leader is too strong, that’s the problem…

-By the way… What’s the boss’s name?

The platinum achievement condition was visible only to Wakamou.

The floating window, showing the difficulty increase of Kyoto Tower, was visible to the viewers…

(Ovo)

“…….”

(ovO)

‘It feels so unsettling──!!’

Something in human form mimicking humans. Though it had a proper nose, eyes, and mouth, the eyes squirmed, growing and shrinking, with pupils as black as if painted over completely, making it unusually unpleasant.

Its appearance mimicked “Momotaro” from Japanese fairy tales exactly. Starting with the sword at its waist, it had a pheasant, a monkey, and a dog as subordinates…and all of them stood up like humans, looking no different from yokai.

Did it draw out an unpleasant feeling of disgust lying dormant within human beings…? Wakamou instinctively retreated, feeling unknown dread at the idea of approaching it.

Instinct? Or should I call it intuition? It seemed everything was sounding the alarm not to go near it.

-It’s Momotaro, isn’t it?

-It has a dog, a pheasant, and a monkey.

-But why are they standing on two legs? It’s unsettling.

-Yikes… Looks like something out of internet horror.

-Look at the face, it looks like it was roughly made by AI, fucking hell…

-The leader is backpedaling too?

-If even the leader, who smiles at us, is like this, that must be really terrifying.

‘The prefix was definitely ‘made subordinates’…?’

“[Let’s duel! Fight! Summon your friends!]”

Shouting with an unnecessarily clear and beautiful boyish voice, Momotaro drew a sword from his waist. The pheasant, the monkey, and the dog, instead of being mere yokai, seemed to be ghost-type monsters, wriggling unpleasantly as they closed in.

What should I call this…? A creature like something you’d find in the SCP Foundation or a monster from the horror genre known as [Creepypasta] that didn’t fade away easily with its repulsiveness.

‘Fuck fuck fuck’

This kind of horror was something Wakamou, truly without resistance, wished to run away from.

Cartoon Cat…or something…was already hard to watch because it was scary, but to fight a living, moving monster…he didn’t have nightmares because he wasn’t asleep, but he figured he wouldn’t be able to go into dark places for a while?

[[The Subordinate Making Momotaro] forcibly summons [Wakamou Inarizushi]’s minions!!]

“What?”

“Huh?”

With the floating window, Asuka and Olga Romanova emerged on Wakamou’s left and right side.

Though they quickly cast illusions to turn into Joseph Khan, the reason for this forced summon was their [Lion] and [Shaman] attributes?

Before he could even process the situation, the pheasant, monkey, and dog simultaneously lunged, prompting Joseph and Asuka to retaliate instantly. Asuka launched a fox spirit with [Shaman], and Joseph expelled flames—yet they simply passed through, similar to Wakamou.

Only then did Wakamou realize they were not mere ghost types and urgently tried to summon Jiang Yeoul and Mei as shields.

“Gyaaah!!”

[[Loss of control over the [Fragment] of the [Idol’s Body]!]

With a sensation similar to something snapping, the dog entered Mei’s body, making her tremble and drool limply.

The drool dripping onto the ground was corroding it—and on top of that, her body turned translucent, forming a [Mana Core] within as mana gathered.

Staring in disbelief at Mei Xiao Long Bao, who had turned into a [Slime Monster], Wakamou soon realized both Asuka and Joseph Khan had been possessed and were glaring at him too.


“[Seimei Style Shamanism] [Spirit Control]!!”

And almost immediately, with eyes changing color, Asuka targeted Jiang Yeoul with shamanism.

[[Loss of control over the [Fragment] of the [Idol’s Body]!]

“Huh?”

100% composed of mana…. It meant [Slime] was possible, but conversely, it could also be classified as a [Mana Ghost]!

As Jiang Yeoul’s legs disappeared, she floated, transforming into a [Banshee], unleashing a scream that instantly froze the surroundings.

In a heartbeat, it was a 5 on 1 situation, and Wakamou drew a sharp breath.

Asuka could be set aside… But what about Joseph Khan, being a [Climber]? What happens when he’s possessed?


“It’s because of you that I’m being called ‘Glasses’… Unforgivable!!”

With eyes completely flipped, in a [Rage] state, Joseph pulled out an axe and drove it straight into Wakamou’s neck.

Indeed─ What a method…

Could Wakamou even hit his companions…not to mention the affiliated VTubers!!

“Even if I’m unapproved by the president… The audacious dragon to swing an axe… Such absurdity!”

-What’s happening exactly??

-Forcibly summoning allies to brainwash and make them fight?

-How do you win against a thing like this?

-Leader! More are coming behind!!

As mana ghost and mana slime versions of Jiang Yeoul and Mei rushed in simultaneously, Asuka, employing [Seimei Style Shamanism], also sent bursts of flames using [Kuzunoha Style Shamanism].

Possession might not work on Wakamou, but he hadn’t anticipated losing control over the [Fragment] like this.

Climbers can’t turn into [Monsters]… But didn’t the Scientist’s experiment almost turn them into slime monsters?

Moreover, Russian climbers had been transformed into monsters too, so while tower monsters can’t be altered, climbers can.

The Legendary Class Scientist had proven that.

Additionally, Wakamou’s body is composed of 100% mana.

Though the main body, having the [Idol’s Body], can resist, it’s a different judgment for fragments…. Knowledge has increased.

“Favoring only Pirate─!! Also care for us, the 1st generation!!”

“An unworthy daughter, ─yet still loved…!!”

Unleashing repressed emotions and embracing Joseph Khan, who tried to decapitate with an axe, Wakamou cast [My Worlds] and hurled her to safety.

Again creating [Fragments] with the [Idol’s Body] to the sides, producing Jiang Yeoul and Mei once more, only for Asuka, employing [Seimei Style Shamanism], to instantly transform them into [Banshees], promptly seizing control over them.

Draining the lifeforce and overcoming [Shamans] with absolute superiority… Wakamou thought it was absolutely the dominant technique, yet once again realized, among climbers, no absolute advantage exists.

‘That means I’m voluntarily creating a climber that can target my own weaknesses!!’

Was it alright to teach this skill at a company? Not sure.

It’s okay because only Wakamou’s believers can use it, right? Are there no issues with leaking data?

Moreover, there’s no guarantee that monsters at the top won’t use this shamanism, is there?

Countermeasures are necessary!

“It’s not only Pirate that’s special! Everyone is, my family!!”

-Oh dear!!!!

-You’re not gonna die, right??? You’re okay, right???

-Even though the leader can’t fight due to lacking horror resistance.

-No, how do you win when they brainwash and seize control?

Smashing the core of the slime to eliminate Mei, the dog housed within popped out, returning to Momotaro’s side.

“[Summon all your allies and face me!]”

[[The Subordinate Making Momotaro] forcibly summons [Wakamou Inarizushi]’s minions!!]

“Ugh…!!”

Forced summons, you say─ Wakamou was breaking into a cold sweat.

If it summoned Sadako…or rather Pirate as an enemy, nothing could be more troublesome!

[[The Subordinate Making Momotaro]’s [Forced Summon] skill summons [Believers]!!]

“Wait a sec, who?”

With that, a dazzling light erupted, and an enormous number of individuals appeared everywhere.

Each held a smartphone in hand, some panicking, probably climbers during a conquer endeavor, startled and looking around.

And all recognized Wakamou, sizing up the surroundings, figuring out the situation upon spotting monsters.

How is this even possible?

In Japan, 41, and in China and South Korea, 50… the 141 people gathered belonged to Wakamou’s believers who had consistently been made into [Climbers], receiving the [Entrance] skill!

“[…..]”

Facing such immense numbers, the smile faded from Momotaro’s face. Seeming more than expected, eh? was the facial expression.


“The climber’s belief is for them to decide personally!! Those willing to come with me must abandon their lives and follow!!!!”

“”””””””””Hoooraaayyyy!!!””””””””””

To start, Wakamou soared to kick Asuka with a flying kick, subduing her immediately, while bestowing [Idol’s Protection] on everyone globally.

141 climbers charged en masse to swarm Momotaro.

Though unexpectedly strong, drawing a sword to swing, frontline tanks toppled en masse.

Still, the climbers gathered here exceeded 100.

Archers shot arrows, wizards cast binding spells to restrain, and shamans shackled limbs in spiritual chains pulling them apart.

Momotaro, bound in mid-air, was close to being quartered, frantically writhing in struggle.

“Guys!!! Step on him!!!”

“”””Shaolin’s 18 Kicks of the Ancestors!””””

“You mean, running away won’t anger Wakamou! No way!!”

“I’ll whoop your mother’s ass!”

“Secret art of throwing climbers from the Tang Gate!!”

“Amitabha! My hands and heart ache dearly!!”

“You turned 1 million mental clubs into enemies!!”

“Damn monster!! Recite a haiku!!”

Climbers from South Korea, China, and Japan all united to beat and stomp Momotaro.

Robbing the weapon and holding down any of the three possessions that reared their heads, far from rampaging, they subdued it readily.

Even with one hit per person, almost 140 blows could be stricken.

“Wakamou hero! It’s defeated!”

“Hahaha! Please tell our museum curator about my karate skills!!”

“Chief Wanda Haye won’t have anything to say, right…?”

While watching over what had once been Momotaro, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean climbers were asking Wakamou.

“Thanks for joining today’s surprise viewers’ participation live stream.”

-Stealth. Viewer. Participation.

-Some viewer participation is only possible by climbers.

-What kind of viewer participation is this, lol.

-Is a funeral underway? No, it’s a festival.

-What about Joseph’s image…

-Is Asuka okay?

-That one doesn’t even have an image to be lowered.

-Oh hahaha

“Wow!!! Insane!!! The reward for completely conquering 60 floors came in!!!”

“10 stat points!? Equipment?!”

“The skill is insane!!!”

Then, suddenly echoing cheers. With the notification of clearing the 60th floor, Wakamou’s rewards accumulated steadily.

But the dragged-along climbers unexpectedly seized the complete reward for clearing the 10-compressed floor labeled as the 60th floor.

An unintended massive reinforcement event erupted; each climber, awarded fancy gear, items, and even skills, cheered with raised hands facing Wakamou.

Seeing that, unselected climber viewers were stunned and justifiably turned fiery with regret….

At that sight, Wakamou, peering down at what was once a tattered, shapeless Momotaro, shook his head.

“Hehe… Asuka is indeed on the side of the strong. It was brainwashing!! Please forgive! It was not a coup thinking it’s now or never to rebel!!”

“Do better next time.”

“Next time, I will surely crush the throat.”

“You are talking about the enemy, not me, right?”

“Oh, there’s a lecture scheduled, so until then—”

Watching Asuka’s hurried escape, Wakamou realized now that he might indeed die climbing this way.

For now…let’s regroup. Who knows if it’ll be 60 times or 80 times next.

“But how do we go back…?”

Cautiously approaching Wakamou, a climber asked.

Appearing as a representative, he seemed to have been dragged from bed, still clad in pajamas.

Far away, a climber with a towel wrapped around his lower half sniffed, prompting Wakamou to drag his hand across his face.

Over 100 illegal climbers appeared in Japan.

Are you really asking me to clean up after summoning them? Damn Kyoto Tower!!!
