[Title: It’s Certain Now]
(Animated gif of Mei clashing mid-air with Jecheon Dae-seong)
(Yeo-Ui being destroyed by Mei)
(Transforming into Wakamou and slicing in one strike)
After all, it’s just Jecheon Dae-seong that the [Chinese Tower] released…
If it had been Tu-Jeon Seung-Bul, it might have won, but unfortunately, it was not possible.
The real Yeo-Ui that crushes the Yeo-Ui used as an elevator.
Plus the 10,000 doppelgangers(?), and a transformation technique.
And the Sun Wukong(?) skill that turns golden-haired.
Now, who is the real Jecheon Dae-seong?
-Mei is fiercely fighting in her 2nd transformation stage, while Wakamou just slashes away lol
ㄴ The difference in strength is obvious.
ㄴ Ooh… You’re quite strong…. My combat power is 530,000.
ㄴ How do you have a 3rd transformation level, lol
-Jecheon Dae-seong is such a monster that even against him Mei can win, but does Wakamou get kicked out if a human becomes a Naga?
ㄴ Devoted and sacrificed for greatness, but understands when not needed…
ㄴ I think it’s not that she fell, but that greatness is the problem, right?

[Title: Latest News on Xiao Liang Fusing with Wakamou]
Look closely at the hair color being pulled out from Xiao Liang.
(Hair turns white and eyes turn bloodshot red)
“When you use demonic energy, you can be consumed and go crazy, so restrain yourself.”
The Wakamou Leader advises Xiao Liang like this.
From seeing heirs transform to giving advice…
Could it be that Dalki and Baekmyeon Geummo went berserk because of demonic energy?
-Jiang Taigong, you might go crazy after serving for 20 years.
ㄴ So after all, the husband is the problem?
ㄴ There’s also Seimei.
ㄴ Mom, I’m old and it’s hard…
ㄴ Since I’m old, I should make a fox fur coat ㄷㄷㄷ
-SDVIMVFoanVzY1YwSVhjamMzUkt1Uk1oK0sya3NRU1YxcUQyKzVnbkpjMHVERHZkTTE1b3IxeGNHY0t2Mnh0OQ
-It’s just that she lost her mind because of her husband and son, right?
ㄴ And she lived by idolizing post-aging…
ㄴ Can’t I be worshipped until I die without being kicked out?
ㄴ What do you mean, you must be worshipped even after you’re gone.
-TMI) The Wakamou Leader said not to idolize.
ㄴ “I’m not a god.”
ㄴ Cults claim to be gods, but the most god-like person says he’s not a god, lol!
ㄴ Maybe they’re afraid of the Vatican?
ㄴ More than that, they say the Leader studied Christianity?
ㄴ Did he see Jesus personally…?
-So there’s something like [Magic Energy]… was a bit surprised.
ㄴ Didn’t you see it when fighting with Mujon?
ㄴ But what’s different from [Berserk]?
Barely a good strategy came to mind and succeeded on the 99th floor.
Since Xiao Liang learned martial arts from 【Mujon】, and even had a demonic sword, Wakamou was secretly surprised not knowing they’d give a skill that meets certain conditions.
By continuously supplying life force through the [VTuber’s Breath], not only does it not burden Xiao Liang, but also takes boosts a step further.
Despite charging so fiercely, Jecheon Dae-seong took a hit and endured.
──It was instinctively felt that if Wakamou hadn’t climbed alone instead of Xiao Liang, this existence might not have emerged.
After the fight with Wakamou, the most famous monkey king in history was sending a regretful look.
…
Even with the help of satellites, there was nothing in the ocean, as was theorized.
The Summoner sent familiars to investigate, but nothing came up.
Climbers are those who test themselves by facing trials and challenges.
An instinctual intuition warned of danger and anticipation of high difficulty levels, sending shivers down the spine.
“But shouldn’t we at least try?”
“Whatever the treasure is, let’s go together first—then decide in the arena in Greece.”
“Well, it was a pleasant journey. We’ve got people to impress, too.”
Ava, noticing the attention drawn to her, smirked, suggesting that having a good boss helped things go well.
And so, getting on the prepared ship, about 500 climbers boldly threw themselves into the adventure after a 4-day journey.
“Let’s hope nothing happens.”
“Nothing will happen! Seriously, I thought I wouldn’t meet anyone after switching careers to treasure hunting!”
“…Robert?”
Why is that old man here?
The three women, looking out at sea from the ship, turned around in shock to see Robert.
He could be considered the number one person you’d prefer not to meet outside under any circumstances.
He mentioned that while climbing the Tower, he found a [Treasure Map].
Chattering away with unasked stories, Robert said he intended to earn the 【Tower Coins】 and buy a 【Partner】.
The good-natured and amiable sheriff from America handed over jerky, recommending it for the idle mouth.
—Glad that today there were no conspiracy theories yet—as these three felt relieved.
“Didn’t they say ancient civilization was discovered in Antarctica the other day? I’ve come up with a conspiracy theory: in fact… there’s living ancient humanity!”
“Ah.”
Instinctively, they felt someone had to shut him up, but no one was willing to step up.
It felt like a power that couldn’t be resisted, as if future events, no matter how hard you deny them, couldn’t be prevented.
It seemed faster to simply brace themselves for it.
“The Tower of Atlantis and ancient humanity… Maybe the legendary Atlantis is out there! And it’s actually a trap to lure climbers with the explanation of treasure. Haha! Not very funny, right? Well, the rewards the Tower gives differ, after all—and there’s no shared information about climbers either.”
“Boss, I’m really upset. They tacked the treasure map onto the reward.”
【You have entered the domain of מִגְדָּל לָט מִצְפֻּן】
【No one can leave without defeating all עָצוּם אָבַרבֹּחַן】
“What the…?”
“What are these letters?”
A sudden information window popped up.
And mist began to roll in.
Eventually, as the ship slipped onto the land that should hold nothing, the immense [Black Tower] welcomed 500 climbers.
And the unidentified strange creatures waiting in front of that Black Tower were a bonus.
Grotesque forms combining human and fish.
“Those aren’t monsters.”
Robert said, and everyone understood the same.
Among the climbers, some classes bear the [Skill] to transform their bodies.
In their case, climbers can instinctively recognize they are not monsters.
No matter how their appearance changes, they can differentiate them as the same [Climber].
Although, it’s not certain since there are monsters that completely disguise their appearance too.
There are cases where 【Legendary Class】 completely changes one’s race too.
They seemed exactly like that.
“Can you understand what they’re saying?”
“This is the Hidden Tower of Secrets. Heroes climbing the trial cannot leave before defeating humans,” Jiang Yeoul explained flatly, drawing all the attention of the climbers.
“Why, it’s ancient Hebrew. An otaku like me knows both R’lyehian and runes too. Plus, I attended church at least.”
“Does going to church let you know that?”
“You knew I studied every night when I’m free, Ava?”
“Weren’t you watching VTuber Broadcasts?”
“I do that too, why not do both? Is it that hard?”
Ava clamped her mouth shut. Our boss is such a genius that he doesn’t understand the heart of an ordinary person.
Not that he wasn’t special from birth with his [Psychic] abilities, but this person’s just…
“Anyway, if you’re human, what does that make us?”
“טֶבַח”
“Oh, oh…!! Did it speak?! What does it say? Tell us, Jiang Yeoul!”
“Slaughter”
“……”
“Slaughter, massacre, butchery, etc… take your pick from those.”
Watching Jiang Yeoul’s shrugging expression, the climbers nodded, realizing none of them bode well.
“Ahh─!! My treasure…!!”
“Isn’t it inside that Black Tower?”
Olga pointed a finger at the Black Tower.
Was the Tower deliberately showing its location? Announcing their return?
“Let’s go─!!!”
Here they are, 500 strong, and there are only about 50 over there.
There were high-level climbers among them who had conquered the Tower, so they drew their weapons, cast [Skills], and charged.
Watching leisurely to see how they fight, Jiang Yeoul sat back.
Not being a VTuber or a corporate-affiliated VTuber, he had no intention of leading the battle.
The [Humans] gripping their metal cold weapons charged, howling.
A beautiful woman resembling a jellyfish raised her staff, using [Magic] and [Curses] simultaneously.
Muscle-clad mermen created [Aura] with their swords.
It meant all of them equaled high-level climbers, and immediately as the charging climbers scattered, powerful climbers rushed to collide.
As shooters’ bullets poured down and Wizard’s magic rained, it seemed the battle would be settled quickly.
But the twinkling, starlit [Humans] brushed off climbers’ attacks with their bodies.
“[Skills] don’t work!!”
“The shields aren’t from [Magic]?! What they’re using isn’t [Mana]!!”
“Damn, even without using skills, weapons won’t pierce through!!”
The climbers’ attacks were going completely unsaid.
Even the [Sacred] used by Vatican’s [Clerics] was the same.
In the utterly baffling situation, climbers hastily retreated, and as Jiang Yeoul cast [Idol’s Thunder], bending mana melted the ground and struck the Black Tower.
“Impossible?!”
Seeing that, even Olga, who transformed into a dragon and spit fire, saw her wing slashed by a strike from the [Humans] wielding shields.
Kwaduk─!
“Huh…?”
And Ava found herself surprised when she used maximum telekinetic power to target a [Wizard] in the back, crushing it effortlessly and killing instantly.
The [Humans] were startled to see Ava, growing wary.
“Boss, what should we do?! Isn’t there a good tactic?!”
“Hold on, I’m thinking.”
Closing his eyes, pondering how to resolve this situation.
Why did Ava’s attack work? My attack might work if cast with strong output, but losses would be high.
Think, Wakamou… there must be a way.
Research online? Contact a [Professor]?
—That was all wrong.
The answer regarding marine life lies within…【VTuber】!!
[HIC! Remember the biology review broadcast I did?]
Ahhh─ Detective Ame=chan…..
[Tiemates, for ocean conservation…]
You always broadcasted for Tiemates like us, your fans….
The love for animals… the wisdom from VTuber….
[Become the VTuber Punch for me]
Ame=chan…!! Enveloped in virtual grace…!!
“The educational broadcast from the clock detective provides the answer! Marine creatures are weak against electricity!!”
“Excuse me, boss, but wasn’t what you just shot lightning? Everyone knows that?”
“No─ wrong! The ones I launch aren’t lightning!!”
Could VTubers be watching from beyond the network? All one could do was pray.
Switching on the broadcast, Jiang Yeoul donned a black suit typically worn by men and struck a pose.
500 climbers and sudden viewers who joined at the broadcast.
And noticing Jiang Yeoul posing suspiciously, the [Humans] stiffened up.
Ava and Olga were left wondering what wisdom a VTuber had.
──♬♪♬
To the jovial rhythm, a song echoed.
The song “People Get Up And Drive Your Funky Soul.”
A song by James Brown, one of the greatest musicians who created the Funk genre.
Among overseas climbers who understood it, amusement flickered with bewilderment.
Even Robert, enthusiastically swaying his shoulders, was confused about suddenly playing the song.
Jiang Yeoul cast his skill.
Exclusive Skill 【Idol’s Dance】
– Can summon special blessings in time with dance and song.
The song was ready; only the dance remained.
What none could forget and recognize, in a sense, even by those who didn’t know the song.
“That’s, Peter Lightning!!”
-LOL, what’s happening?
-A dance broadcast?
-LOL, he’s dancing so well.
-This is crazy.
Ignoring the penalties of [Idol’s Physique], moving freely and gracefully, allowing smooth dancing on the deck.
Thanks to that, Jiang Yeoul danced freely and vigorously to the music.
Living up to its fame, even those unfamiliar with the song recognized the dance.
Widely known on its own overseas as a meme.
Thunder began to roll overhead.
Lightning summoned through dance and mana bolts of lightning landing one after another, striking the head of a charging [Human].
Not conjured by mana, but pure thunder born directly from nature itself!!
The advancing [Humans] fell backward, grilled like fish, as lightning rained down.
Climbers were left dazed, watching the [Humans] confusedly retreat in panic.
[The Korean Tower remarks this isn’t how the skill is used, baffled.]
Even the Tower, which created the skill, found this use unexpected, but the dancing Jiang Yeoul, engrossed, didn’t hear.
“Unbelievable?!”
With the song finally ceasing, the lightning stopped, and the [Humans] tried rushing forward, but there was no shortage of songs.
Seeing Jiang Yeoul’s stance-practiced, Robert let out a gasp.
“Where’d you get those sunglasses?!”
Even Ava knew enough to recognize the legendary pose Jiang Yeoul was striking.
A VTuber stands for song─ but if not a singer, one must at least be a dancer!!
By the [VTuber Asset], spotlights beamed down from the sky, shining onto Jiang Yeoul.
Thick mist surrounding them served to be the stage’s magnificent effect.
Joined on the live stage, together with the VTuber (Idol), viewers watched.
