Once the Lich, the 40th-floor boss monster, was dealt with, there were a lot of matters to sort out.

Charlotte Cavendish, who had hurriedly followed the temple up from the 35th floor, swiftly took the ownerless staff.

After offering tributes to the temple and compensating us in the name of the Magic Tower, she quickly claimed it.

The skull, now devoid of its body, clattered its jaw and was taken to the temple.

The Lich, left with only its skull, had the ability to convert divine energy into life force and mana.

It became a magical device that indefinitely maintained a holy barrier, seemingly unable to attack while its invincibility gimmick was active.

This turned it into a black mage incapable of using black magic (holy attribute, replenishing health and mana).

In simpler terms, it was like a Holy Grail for the temple people, where praying would endlessly produce HP/MP potions.

It could well be called a sacred relic.

"What do you plan to do with this?"

"After gilding it with blessed gold, we plan to keep it in a holy barrier. In service for eternity to the Goddess and life, perhaps its wicked soul will eventually repent."

"Ah, I see..."

Thus, unable to die as it wished, the undead black mage and corrupted alchemist, who sought to desecrate the Goddess, was doomed to emit life force for the Goddess for all eternity, revered as a holy relic in the depths of the temple.

So, the staff became material for the Gate, and the captured boss, a strengthening material for the temple's forces.

However, there was still much left to sort out.

[Assist streamer 'Han Se-Ah' in hunting the 40th-floor boss monster 1/1 CLEAR!]

[Reward: A Fragment of an Unknown Memory]

Especially, there was much to ponder regarding the quest window that was monitoring me in real-time.

Fortunately, this transcendent being seemed to be favorable towards me.

The fact that it promptly added a skill as soon as the invincibility bug occurred showed that it had no intention of hindering my tower conquest.

On the contrary, it seemed eager to push me to conquer the tower...

And it was incredibly kind and gentle-hearted.

I was a powerless human whose soul had been extracted and thrown across dimensions, and the entity was a divine being capable of imprisoning human souls in a virtual reality game.

Even with my sturdy and robust 6 born body, how could I match up against a divine entity that could manipulate souls?

Yet, the penalty offered by the hologram window was merely a limit on internet usage time.

And that too, not a deprivation of the hologram window but a restriction to two hours a day.

In fact, it could have taken my body, inflicted pain on my soul, imposed dreadful prohibitions, or made my body move involuntarily while using skills, and I would have had no way to resist.

However, the unknown entity beyond the hologram window chose not to do so.

What it wielded to push me forward was not a whip, but rather like the gentle touch of a mother patting her child's back.

And not just that, it even handed me candy as it gently nudged me forward.

'Could it be that the Goddess called upon me?'

Just that thought alone dispelled the anxiety that had been weighing on my heart.

It seemed clear that the divine being bore no hostility towards me, nor any intention to coerce or torment me.

"Sir Roland! No, Hero!"

"Excuse me?"

What was this about?

Defeating a boss monster that appears every ten floors signifies the end of a chapter in the main storyline.

By dealing with the Full Moon Wolf, I had made a name for myself among the city's citizens.

By defeating the Orc Chieftain, I had established connections with the kingdom's knights.

And by conquering the Giant Serpent, the Magic Tower and the Northerners came into the picture.

As this is a virtual reality game with a realistic single-player experience, other players might encounter different scenarios.

However, every ten floors, a significant power gets involved.

Therefore, at the 40th floor, the powerful temple extends its hand to the player as the gameplay's difficulty increases.

"Hero!"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

It was too sudden and problematic.

Following the discovery reward, there was the memory fragment received as a clear reward.

When I planned to visit the temple to check it, I heard this strange talk.

The temple knights, previously polite, now exceeded the bounds of courtesy and began to treat us with excessive reverence.

Han Se-Ah, as a player, wanted to wrap up the quest, Irene, as a nun affiliated with the temple, wanted to hear the story, and I wanted to check the memory fragment handed to me like candy by the hologram window.

For various reasons, we visited the temple before the Magic Tower, only to find an overwhelming scene unfolding.

The temple knights, clad in pure white armor, noticed us, parted to each side, and saluted us with measured motions, placing their palms on their helmets.

"Why, why are you doing this, brothers?"

"Welcome, companions of the Hero's party, and Sister Irene!"

"Bro-brother?"

"Yes! Is there anything you would like to ask?"

Even Irene, a saint candidate, seemed caught off guard, her golden eyes wide and rolling in surprise.

We had come to ask if there was any way we could help in filling and purifying the 40th-floor pit with divine energy, only to be unexpectedly hailed as part of a 'Hero's party.'

And Irene wasn't the only one surprised.

-Damn, why didn't we see the holy sword?

-Now that he's become a 'Hero', doesn't that confirm the holy sword? We missed out

-Is there a streamer who missed the holy sword awakening event because they were busy filming a monster?

-I asked to skip the boring parts like riding a carriage and walking, not the key events!

Once the temple joins forces and the 40th-floor boss is defeated, the player is recognized as a 'Hero.'

Isn't this thrilling news for players who haven't even reached the 30th floor yet?

Information that would inspire even those who haven't climbed the tower to want to start.

Thanks to this, the viewers, who had been lamenting missing the scene of summoning the holy sword, had their attention diverted.

I was just relieved that the embarrassing and childish chant hadn't been preserved into history.

"Ah, I'm sorry, okay? I thought if Roland and the boss weren't left in a 1:1 situation, it wouldn't replicate exactly and Roland would be unable to obtain the holy sword! Honestly, even if we rewind those 3 minutes, there's no guarantee that Roland will awaken in the same way!"

Han Se-Ah, it seemed, had received her fair share of criticism for turning the camera away during the stream.

Being a live-streaming streamer who had apparently cut away from an event scene...

Even if it was due to a monster's surprise attack, criticism was inevitable.

Knowing this, Han Se-Ah didn't lash out at the viewers who were almost spamming complaints, but instead humbly bowed her head.

It was only 3 minutes, and although they saw me wielding immense aura, missing the beginning part left no room for excuses as a streamer.

This flat-out apology seemed to gradually win the viewers over.

After all, if someone continued to whine for 24 hours a day after the day had passed, wouldn't they be more annoying than the person who made the mistake?

-Well, it's already cleared, so let's go easy on her.

-We don't even know what the awakening conditions are. Resetting might plunge us into the rerolling hell.

-I bet those whining would complain about being bored if they kept resetting LOL.

-So what's this 'Hero party'? There must be some perks, right? They wouldn't just give us a twig and tell us to behead the Demon King, would they?

-It's been a whole day, and there are still whiners? Do they have that much... time?

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore and hear about the Hero. I'm really sorry for not showing the first scene of the awakening event... but it's a 24-hour cooldown skill, you know? Frankly, if you ask, you can see it every day, so let's end the complaints here. We have to progress the story."

With that, Han Se-Ah, who had spent a day prostrating, headed to the temple with newfound dignity.

"Welcome, Hero Hanna!"

"...Me? Why?"

But she stopped in her tracks.

After all, while I had defeated the black mage, the main character and player was Han Se-Ah.

So, while Han Se-Ah was appeasing her viewers, I had spoken to the temple.

Iren, a saint-in-training, Roland with the holy sword of the temple, and then, the genius mage Hanna, the one who had gathered these companions.

With the mana stakes (minimap), inventory, and various spells, it was Hanna who had received the Goddess's revelation to climb the tower.

Therefore, the Hero should not be me but her.

A genius mage who gathered a warrior with a holy sword and a nun who's received a revelation in one party.

Could there be a more fitting situation for the title of Hero?

-Only 5 minutes after being forgiven, and she's taking advantage again?

-So, Roland draws the holy sword, and Han Se-Ah becomes the Hero?

-Well, the player becoming the Hero makes sense... But what else did she do this time, apart from using the minimap?

-Rather have Manaashi as the Hero.

-Seems like the Hero here is more like a boss who outsources work.

"No, hey, hey! I didn't steal Roland's achievements! It's just because I'm a player! The Hero title came just because I'm a player, right?"

[Rolands Mighty Aura Greatsword donated 10,000 Won!]

Next time we draw the holy sword, let's start by beheading Han Se-Ah

[Watched Han Se-Ahs stream and got eaten by an Orc donated 50,000 Won!]

Apart from that awkward moment when you lit up the light magic underground and it turned out brighter than expected, what else did you do?

Of course, for the viewers, this was just another excuse to cause an uproar.
