"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"

Even without thinking too hard, I understood what this meant.

"Is this what they're up to now?"

I knew they couldn't kill me directly, but why would they resort to this instead?

"Tch, how annoying!"

Basically, this meant that the prize I wanted to hoard for myself had been distributed all around the world.

The whole point of the tower was that anyone and everyone could access it.

Now that the Floors had spilled to reality, that meant that there would obviously be bias as to the location of the final Horseman.

"World Map!"

I shouted, calling for one of the special items I purchased from SHOP.

As expected, a Map popped up, and I could see the location of the Danger Spots all around me.

Fortunately, the position of the Horsemen wasn't too far from my vicinity.

'Fortunately, uh? Why though...?'

If this was the work of the Gods, as I suspected, they would have made sure I was the furthest away from my target.

That way, someone else could steal my prize.

However, the way things stood, I could get to the scene within a minute and complete the job as fast as possible.

I wouldn't even require anyone's assistance.

"So, why...?"

I quickly decided to ignore my worries and simply got myself prepared for the journey.

It was a slight change in plans, but all I had to do was get the Red Rider.

Once I was done with him, I could then focus on the other Floors that spilled over.

Even though they would give me fewer rewards, Floors in the higher Level promised me better offerings.

"Hold on... Unconquered Floors...?!"

Before I could complete my words, I felt something fast and powerful descend from the sky.

"W-wha—?!"

>BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!<

I felt the blast devastate everything around me, causing me to scream in immense pain.

In a flash, I utilized every defensive item and Skill at my disposal, shrouding myself in everything I could to protect myself from the immense destruction that occurred around me.

My house, everything within it, got destroyed in an instant.

It was as if my surroundings were being vaporized and immersed in blue, yellow, and red light.

I closed my eyes, braced myself... And felt everything around me get utterly diminished.

******************************

"Haa... Haa..."

At this point, my breathing was heavy.

I had used too many Skills, Title Effects, and Items at the same time.

Even though I was Level 800, the strain of utilizing a great deal of power at once ate at me.

My body was partially damaged, so it was undergoing repair as well.

'Regeneration is too slow... what the hell...?'

The speed of my recovery, however, was the least of my worries.

All around me, I could see nothing but a massive crater filled with nothing.

No debris could be seen for at least a mile.

Everything had completely cleared.

The whole area was vaporized, and I was standing on darkened ground.

Thanks to my resistance, the heat didn't really bother me—though my body stung a bit.

Still... even with such a level of destruction around me... that wasn't what caught my attention the most.

"Singularity..." A sharp voice came from above me.

It was as deep and vast as the ocean.

I was forced to look above me despite the overwhelming dread that was enveloping my body.

The feeling that currently assailed every ounce of my being... was awfully familiar.

"... Your time of judgment has come." Yet another voice spoke.

This time, it was like the rumbling of the earth. As though the ground was splitting apart, ready to swallow me whole.

I was forced to once again feel the might of a presence that far exceeded my own.

"... You will perish here."

This time, it was like fiery flames roared and a raging storm of destruction bellowed.

I shivered in the presence of these three contradicting sounds.

"No... not this again..." I murmured with my quivering lips.

Even though my injured body trembled violently, I still managed to look up.

Far above me were three Angels that spread their spectacular wings.

They were all dressed in luxurious armor—having distinctive features.

One was adorned in ruby, another sapphire, another topaz.

I was at a loss for words once I laid eyes on them. The feeling was so similar...

"A—Angel...!"

Yes, I had an encounter with one in the past as well.

My heart raced and my head hurt the moment I recollected my experience with that terrifying being—and how I nearly died.

My body shivered once again at the thought.

Now, right above me were three beings who were the same as the one I fought last.

There was no need to check their Status, but I attempted to.

[DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!]

[DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!]

[DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!]

[DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!] [DANGER!]…

[SYSTEM ERROR]

<Level Of Threat Is Unquantifiable>

<Status Information Can Not Be Viewed>

<You Are Advised To Flee If Possible>

~Goodluck!~

[End Of Information]

As expected, it was impossible!

I was foolish enough to imagine that I stood a better chance now than before.

'No... no, I expected this!' I clenched my teeth and looked above me.

Even though they were currently above me in virtually every aspect, now was the best time to rely on the only thing that could help.
