One may question that why a god who is soo powerful is in this kind of position. So as far as I know from the novel, this is the work of other gods that fear that
But [RAAIL] is in worse position than I imagined…...
"Anyway, we are still alive so why that long face?" I asked Dain who was walking beside while I stretched my hands.
"Alive!!? If that old man didn't accept her request, my wagon would have been burnt to crisp along with the whole village doomed!!" Dain shouted angrily clenching his hand.
"Along with whole village doomed?" I asked him something I didn't get.
"What? Did you already forget that there is poison in my wagon?!" Dain looked at me seriously.
"What!!? I totally forgot that!!" I shouted.
"If the position gets burnt, it becomes poisonous gas and would have spread to the whole village!!" making a scary face we continued walking towards the temple.
Yesterday after the old man accepted his granddaughter's request we left as fast as we could so that we don't get intervened in another fight if it broke out.
We found an empty space and put up a tent with a fire camp. I was shocked that merchants have to carry these many things with them. Now that I think about, in these kinds of situations anime characters get every thing from dining table to bed from thin air!
"Oh! So, you are here." The old man said as soon as we were in his visible sight (the gates of the temple). He was wearing a saffron pant with matching shirt. He had white beard with a wrinkled face. He even had a walk stick that looked a century old in his hands.
"Yes, why would we not be here?" I asked the old man.
"Oho! I thought that you would flee after hear to some rumours in this village."
Now that I think about it, I saw many people staring at us seriously mumbling something. That's to be expected as very less people want to at least enter this village.
"So, are you both ready to take the
"Both? No! it's only this crazy bastard who's goanna take the
"Hehe, ok young man. Now follow me." He said he turned towards the doors of the temple as I quietly followed him.
WOOOW the doors of the temple were huge!! And same goes for the temple. Now that it's no longer dark I can see the sculptures carved on the walls of the temple. They were stunning!! I cannot even imagine seeing this type of sculptures in my previous life!! I couldn't even imagine the picture of the temple because of the trashy writing style of the author. The walls of the temple were made of black stones that were even darker than my hair!!
As I mentioned before, the temple was like a huge structure that was made in one of the first human civilization in my previous life. But the only thing that doesn't match the temple is its background. There are trees grown every where and it looks like the fields are also not taken care properly.
CREAK CREK The templar opened the door as they made weird noises. "You are the third person to take the
"OH!" so am third huh? But what month is it?
"WAITT!!!!" ahhh not again! It was the voice of that girl!! This old man's granddaughter.
"Grandpa!! Are you trying to slip me away again?!" she shouted as she ran towards us.
"Huh? No! I was going to wait for you." The old man said scratching his beard.
"As if I would believe you!!" she shouted taking off her hoodie.
Last night I couldn't see her as it was dark and she almost looked like a ghost but now that I can see her, she looks like she is around Robi- I mean my age or maybe younger than me.
She was dressed in an adventures outfit and she had brown hair which was the first time I saw other colours of hair as everyone I have met had black hair of various darkness. She had blue eyes where one can see her spirit.
"Are you gonna take the
"Yes." I replied. Damn it!! If not because of that Azel bastard I would have come here on a luxurious carriage without leaving my clothes and food in the forest! Sob sob…
"Ok, now you both young ones get in." As we heard we got inside the temple.
"!!!" So this is inside of the temple. I was spacious inside too. There were all kinds of sculptures decorated around the wall. I can even see something written on the walls that I cannot understand.
There was a beautiful idol placed right in the middle of the temple that was shining like a diamond reflecting blue light. I can tell at a single glance that it's the idol of the goddess, the [GODDESS OF WAR]. As the author described, the idol was made of something that can't be seen in the modern world (in my previous life). I was just too stunned that I cannot take out my eyes from it.
"Both of you, please step inside the circle." The old man said pointing us towards a circle drawn on the floor at the edge of the temple. We both walked in the circle.
"Now I will be activating the spell that will be taking you to the
To tell you seriously, I am a kind of nervous for the thing ahead… it may get scarier as get further into the story of the novel.
Seeing us node the old man lifted his hand stick and it began to glow.
"??" something like a stone started to appear on the stick which glowed in red light so bright that it blinded us.
I closed my eyes as tightly as I could, and suddenly it was dark.
"??!" what the hell!! I cant even tell if I opened or closed my eyes!!
"AAK!" I shouted as I checked if my eyes were open by keeping my finger in it. Bruh! What else could I do?
"Huh? You are still there?" "EEK" the scared me!!! So, she is here too.
"Yeah." I replied.
I was trying to look around if I could see anything but everything was pitch black.
{WELCOME TO THE TOWER OF TRIALS}
"??!!" I got started on hearing someone's voice.
WOOSSHHH "?!!" suddenly the lamps lit up themself one by one on both sides of the wall and a way lit up. I can sense that the walls are not made by normal people. I can feel a different aura just from the stones of the wall.
Damn!! This is more fantasy like than the author described. As expected of the [TRASH NOVEL] this world is filled with amazing things.
I looked around for the girl who came with me. "Huh? Hey why is your face so pale?" I asked her as she was dripping with swear and hade a pale face. "Don't tell me you are afraid of darkness!"
"What?!! No!!" she shouted so loud that I would have become deaf if I didn't close my ears.
So, she is afraid of dark huh? Then this is going to be troublesome….
"And my name is not hey. My name is Monica- Monica Arceus." She introduced herself.
"Oh ok. Then let's go." I said and started walking.
"Hey!! Aren't you gonna introduce yourself?" she ran to my font.
"Oh, ok, I am Robin." Saying that I started walking.
Damn!! Now she is going to think that I am a freak!! But I never introduced to myself to anyone from the time I remember.
It's already too much that I am talking with a person!! I feel nervous even when talking to Dain who is Robin's friend! Then how am I gonna talk to a stranger??! This is too much for an otaku!!
As I was walking along the path screaming internally, I heard the voice again.
[THIS IS THE TOWER OF TRIALS OF #THE GODDESS OF WAR#]
[I AM THE MESSENGER OF THE GODDESS
[YOUR /TEST/ WILL BE STARTED AS SOON AS YOU ENTER THE FIRST FLOOR]
I took a look at the back. There was nothing but pitch dark. As I read in the novel. There is no way back, you will be back only if you get "AWAKEN" or get killed in this #TEST#.
SSEEEZZ I don't want to die. The thought of pain is enough for me to leave this world, but ill not leave my dear family in this crisis!! I'll definitely get out and live a luxurious life!!
As far as I know ~TOWER OF TRIALS~ is the place where the gods and goddess observe the people participating. ~TOWER OF TRIALS~ is an unknown dimension which cannot be detected by normal humans.
If I remember correctly, this tower consists of three to five floors where each floor consists of a test that are more difficult from the one below. That is the first floor is easier than the second and the second floor is easier than the third.
"Huh? Where is my sword?!" Monica shouted looking around.
"Don't you know that weapons are not allowed inside the tower?"
As soon as she heard me her face turned red "….. I know …." She mumbled in a very low voice.
Yeah, I bet she knows, it's just that she forgot. "If the level is too high, the tower will provide the weapons for us before head."
So, what would be the first floor? Will it be as I read or is it going to change. I hope it won't change because if it changes, I'll be in trouble.
We reached the door of the first floor in no time. The door was so huge that even elephants and giraffes can fit through. As soon as I touched the door CREEK the door started to open.
The bright light behind the door blinded us. There was nothing but wide space with white top and bottom.
I stepped inside the door [WELCOME TO THE FIRST FLOOR OF TOWER OF TRIALS]
[THE #TEST# WILL NOW BEGIN]
[PLEASE GET READY]
"!!!" as soon as
[PLEASE REACH THE DOOR OF THE NEXT FLOOR TO COMPLETE THE FIRST FLOOR]
YES!!! The
