Regression Is Too Much

Chapter 43

43 – The 2nd floor is too suspicious (4)

At first I thought I misunderstood.

However, as a result of looking around the mansions of other ‘nobles’, I came to the same conclusion as the first time.

The nobles of this place… It was very rotten.

In summary, their demands were to kidnap someone, beat them down, or fight their soldiers and defeat them.

There was not a single archaic request that a ‘noble’ would ask for.

“It’s strange… It’s so weird… “

There are a couple of odd things about this city.

First. The city is ridiculously affluent thanks to God’s grace, and yet the Bronzes wear tattered clothes and live in dilapidated houses.

The hospitality of the people here is beyond words. If you ask for fruit, he will give you fruit, and if you ask for a sword, he will give you a sword.

Literally the Great Peace. I’m pretty sure that nothing happens even if I fall asleep with the gate open.

But… There are beggars in the streets.

There are so many resources, but there are beggars sleeping on the street and begging for food.

In addition, nobles are openly unlikable.

‘Hey, players and villagers can hit each other? Hit me once, hit me~’ to the point where it feels like provocation.

Exploited villagers and evil and lazy nobles. I couldn’t get rid of the idea that it was contrived.

And second.

This city… Was encouraging evil.

According to the story, there were players who kidnapped citizens before and gave them to the nobles for profit.

Of course, the citizens were not fools, so they resisted in their own way, and there were many cases where they actually subdued the players… It’s just a story that can be used to a certain level.

When players with powerful traits decided to commit evil, the citizens had no way to stop it.

“This is so strange.”

Again, this tower was built by God to judge humans.

Because humans are evil, because they are selfish, because they are lazy, because they have lost their faith, etc… There must be many reasons.

However, this tower was encouraging them to grow rapidly by doing evil now.

Of course, like in the tutorial, after breaking the 2nd floor, you can referee again. There is a possibility of rewarding those who climb the tower with an honest, good attitude.

But… If not?

What if the referee is held after everyone has climbed the 66th floor?

What if the madmen who enjoy civilian terrorism in real life were the best talents to become the strongest in the tower?

God’s stance is ‘It’s true that bad guys get stronger quickly, but that’s part of the ordeal. If humans were kind, they would have climbed up well while helping each other.” What if the stance?

Humanity will not be able to avoid destruction.

Finally, the structure of the plaza.

The alleys of the plaza are very narrow. If three people block it with their bodies, there is no way to pass.

Those who sold their conscience and collected gold tokens are designed to eventually be caught by other bullies blocking their way.

There is a saying called crab in a jar. It is a story that if you put a lot of crabs in a jar, other crabs will grab the crab trying to escape the jar and hang on it, so that no crab will be able to escape the jar.

“Hmm… “

Actually… It seems like there is no answer, but there is an answer.

All you have to do is boil a couple of villagers and ask them to get rid of those who block the road with their bodies. Violence is possible between villagers and players.

But the guy who got the Gold Mark by sacrificing other villagers… Will ordinary villagers try to help?

Twisted and twisted situation.

In times like these, it’s right to solve the task right in front of you.

“You’re the one who guided me, right?”

“Ah… Yes. That’s right.”

“Follow me.”

First of all… I decided to go back to Baron Licht who gave me the first assignment.

“Huh? Where did Miss Emily go, and did she come back alone?”

Baron Licht, who was leisurely enjoying coffee and reading a book in the drawing room, looked up at me.

Without answering, I took a step forward and swung the sword at Baron Licht with the scabbard.

“Heh heh… That it’s no use… Kuck!”

It was Baron Licht who created a shield in the air by waving his hands, but I passed out right away without finishing my words to slam his head with my sword sheath.

“… He was a little kid.”

The momentum felt momentarily was quite terrifying. Probably, if we had been confronted head-on, I would probably have regressed. It must have been because he was careless that he could have finished it in one shot.

“… Let’s see.”

When I rummaged through the chest of the fainting guy, I found many perverted items that no normal adult man would carry around, but that wasn’t my concern.

“… Found.”

I finally found two glittering platinum marks on his waist and a flat golden box on his chest.

“… Are you done?”

A man cautiously walks into the room, keeping his eyes open. It is the resident who guided me when I first came to this street.

“Is this what you are looking for?”

“… Yes. You’re right. Residents only… It is a token creation box.”

A villager who accepts the flat golden box I offer and nods slightly.

“If you have this… You can create golden tokens at will.”

He took out a silver box of the same design from his bosom and shoved it into the arms of Baron Licht, who had passed out.

“Then… As promised… “

“Yes. I’ll give you a normal assignment. It’s not about satisfying individual perverted desires… A task that would truly help climbers grow. This madness should have stopped at some point in the first place.”

This is the answer I came up with.

Replace the noble with someone else, and induce them to give a more normal task.

In the past, when I was guided through the town… This villager still treated me kindly and showed me a rational side.

If this man takes the place of Baron Licht, people won’t have to hurt the villagers to get the golden mark anymore.

“Ugh… ugh… ”

“First of all, think about what kind of assignments you will be given in the future. I’m going to leave him outside.”

“I see.”

I grabbed Baron Richt’s feet and dragged him out of the drawing room.

“Kuh… ugh… “

Baron Licht struggles to open his eyes as if his head was swept on the floor in the hallway.

“Hey. I should have put a little more thought into it. What is kidnapping? Kidnapping.”

If all the other nobles are replaced in the same way, people will be able to become stronger without committing evil anymore.

Since it is said that the tower was originally built by God because he was disappointed in humans… It can be seen as a sufficient achievement just to prevent further evil deeds.

If you try to fix the structure of this tower one by one, which induces ordinary people to commit crimes, nothing will come of it.

Now, what we need to think about is the roadblock in the plaza, the hidden reward… And beggars.

I felt the need to investigate why beggars live a beggar’s life.

“Huh… hehehe… “

My thought circuit, which was busy making plans, stopped at the sound of Baron Licht’s laughter.

“Why are you laughing?”

“You are not the first. That’s what I was thinking.”

“… ?”

His tone had changed.

From noble mtl dot com

Not an aristocratic tone… In a polite and courteous tone.

“Do you know the saying that a seat makes a person? Was I a bastard who was crazy about s*xual desire from the beginning? Just… That’s what happens naturally. Because that is God’s will.”

“… “

“Look behind you.”

I slowly turn my head back… A friendly villager came out of the drawing room.

With a mean smile on his lips.

“I heard that Baron Richt was careless… I’m not vigilant. I just saw your strength.”

Dozens of light bullets floating behind the villager’s head, and a thick protective film covering the body.

“… It’s just ridiculous.”

Do I have DNA that can be passed over?

I let out a big sigh and rushed at the villager.

I struggled in my own way, but… In the first place, it was impossible to perfectly respond to something called ‘magic’ that I had never seen before.
