(From MC's perspective)
Dining Hall,
Seeing that Carolina understood the aning behind my words. I then focus on eating the food. It's better to fill my stomach before going to the battle tower.
When it cos to these ugly pigs, I took a glance at them before continuing to eat the food. I miss my old days when I could easily kill and dump such annoying b@stards.
But here I feel restrained. Without having any backup for myself, I won't foolishly bully others. Then I see the ugly pigs from the elental halls retreat after seeing no response from .
"Vincent, how confident are you?" Carolina suddenly asked. She felt her junior brother seed optimistic unlike her.
My mouth curved into the arc. She still has lingering doubts in her heart. But I know it's normal. She doesn't know about my exact strength.
"Sister, you will see soon. So don't think too much about it," I said. And stressing the point again.
Carolina smiled embarrassingly. She didn't know how many tis she had asked for confirmation. But as her junior brother rightly said, she will know everything during the challenge.
Ti passed,
After having breakfast, we left the dining hall and walked towards the battle tower. As usual, we entered the phone booth and selected the battle tower place.
The phone booth moved and in a few seconds, it reached its destination.
Creak
We both stepped out and walked towards the huge battle tower.
Our appearance imdiately attracted attention.
"These people?" Seeing the crowd, I got black lines on my forehead.
Carolina let out a small chuckle before saying, "Vincent, there are a lot of people waiting for you here."
She wasn't surprised by the crowd. Since yesterday wizards have been coming and going in large numbers. Most of them were expecting to see Vincent.
I recovered my expression and continued to walk towards the battle tower. It's good that none of these wizards blocked my way.
Looking at the myriad of reactions, I guess wizards can't wait to see my inner house ranking.
"All the best, "Carolina gave a thumbs up, saying that.
Hearing that, I smiled in response before heading toward the entrance. When I got closer, I slowly opened the black door and stepped inside.
The next mont, I fell into pitch-black darkness. Before I landed on the ground in a separate space.
[Vistor's identity recognized!]
[Na: Vincent Carey, Gravity Wizard]
[Rank: Level-3]
[House: Inner House]
[Achievent: Rank 1st in the Outer House Battle Tower Ranks]
A row of information appeared in front of
the next second. Seeing the familiar process, I didn't get flustered.
[Do you want to start the Inner House Challenge? Enter: Y/N]
Seeing another set of instructions, I imdiately pressed YES on the virtual screen.
[Floor 1: The Challenge starts in 10 minutes.]
I adjusted my mind and waited for the environnt to change.
A few minutes later,
The surrounding environnt changes completely into gloomy terrain. Looking at the familiar scene, I watch out for the graveyard.
Swish!
Suddenly, a white skeleton hand appeared above the ground. A quick glint flashes in my eyes. "Sister is right. It's all about dealing with evil spirits," I muttered to myself.
After a couple of seconds, an entire skeleton stood up from the ground. Unlike previous evil corpses or Knight soldiers.
There are no fluctuations inside this skeleton. I knew it was not that simple. But when my gaze fell on the footprints, my pupil shrinks. It might be the skeleton of a certain wizard.
But to confirm it's best to use the system.
"System, probe the target's details," I said to the system.
[Ding! The Host's voice is recognized]
[Ding! The command is initiated %]
[Status Panel]
[Na: Skeleton Puppet]
[Faction: Righteous]
[Level: Level-3]
[Strength: 222]
[Vitality: 226]
[Speed: 225]
[Stamina: 221]
[Skill: Bone crush]
A status panel appeared in front of my eyes. My gaze imdiately swept past the data. After a few seconds, I retracted my gaze. As I had expected, this skeleton is different. It's not leaking any evil mana.
Thinking about the na. My confusion cleared up a little bit. There are wizards in the world who walk the path of puppetry.
Maybe this skeleton is a product of their magic. The more I think about it. The more it feels real.
Swish!
The skeleton rushed towards
all of a sudden.
Seeing that, I pointed my fingers at the skeleton.
"Gravity Blast," I said.
A wisp of a magic shot at the incoming skeleton. In a blink of an eye, the spell attack lands a hit.
Boom!
The skeleton broke into pieces under the gravity blast attack. This all happened within seconds.
When the smoke cleared. I see no trace of the skeleton.
[Floor cleared: 1]
[The next challenge starts in 10 minutes.]
[Do you want to proceed or not? Enter Y/N]
Seeing that I choose to proceed to the next round.
Right after that, the landscape changes drastically. This ti, I stood in the middle of the big graveyard.
Two more skeletons rose one after another. Seeing one more skeleton, a quick glint flashes in my eyes. The inner house challenge appears to be similar to the outer house. Except for the opponents.
I have this feeling that if it's true then it will continue until the 10th round.
Shaking my head, I focused my gaze on the two puppet skeletons again.
"System, probe the target's details," I said to the system.

Seeing the data in the status panel, I confird my earlier guess. The process is similar except for the opponents. Instead of a monster, I will face different opponents this ti.
A look of understanding dawned upon . Then without waiting further, I pointed my fingers at the puppet skeleton and released two consecutive attacks.
Boom!
One after another, the gravity blast attack lands a deadly blow on the skeleton puppet. Which got crushed right after the attack.
[Floor cleared: 2]
[The next challenge starts in 10 minutes.]
[Do you want to proceed or not? Enter Y/N]
Right after my selection, the landscape changed again.
15 minutes later,
I cleared several consecutive floors within a few minutes. When the smoke got cleared, I received instructions.
[Floor cleared: 8]
[The next challenge starts in 10 minutes.]
[Do you want to proceed or not? Enter Y/N]
The landscape widened after my selection. Making room for more puppet skeletons to appear. But I didn't get flustered; rather, I'm more looking forward to the 11th floor.
Swish!
The puppet skeletons appeared one after another. In a blink of an eye, 9 skeletons surrounded .
My mouth curved into an arc. The puppet skeleton got the intelligence of fallen wizards. It sohow gives
the feeling that I'm fighting against a real level-3 wizard.
But thankfully, the spells aren't that great.
When the puppet skeletons rushed toward
at the sa ti. I simply stood in the sa spot and uttered, "Repulsive Force"
Suddenly, a terrific repulsive force released from my body. The force is so powerful that it repelled all the objects quite close to .
My eyes widened in surprise. All the puppet skeletons were thrown away like a broken quiet. So of them got destroyed by the repulsive force itself.
Using this opportunity, I shot a gravity blast spell to end the remaining monsters.
[Floor cleared: 9]
[The next challenge starts in 10 minutes.]
[Do you want to proceed or not? Enter Y/N]
After a few seconds, the instruction ca again. The environnt didn't change much after my selection. It's the sa graveyard setting except for adding one more puppet skeleton this ti.
I furrowed my eyebrows slightly. I didn't use the repulsive force spell properly. One attack was enough to crush all the skeletons. But so of them got thrown away by the force.
A quick glint flashes in my eyes. Why don't I use the combination of the Zero Gravity spell and then repulsive force? An idea strikes my mind.
Swish!
When I'm pondering, the puppet skeleton surrounds
one by one. But this ti the puppet skeleton stood quite away from . "Intelligence, "I muttered to myself.
But I know once I reveal any sign of weakness. The puppet skeleton will imdiately rush towards .
Suddenly, one of the puppet skeletons attacked . I didn't use the repulsive force spell instead, I cast the gravity push spell.
When the spell attack landed a hit, the skeleton flew backward and smashed into the ground.
The next second, I put up an act. I slightly stepped backward instead of attacking the skeletons. I noticed one more thing earlier.
As ti goes on, the puppet skeleton's clarity is replaced by a sense of urgency. I guess this might be the work of the battle tower.
The battle tower doesn't want any stalemate. It's pushing the opponents to attack the challenger.
