Half an hour later, 3rd floor, spiral staircase.
Marvin was panting. Behind him lay a Magic Beast corpse as well as the traces of many activated traps.
He dodged the effects of most traps, but some of them such as lightning traps couldn't be dodged because of their speed.
He could have created an endless amount of Origami Doppelgangers to trip the traps if he were better at it, but because his skill level wasn't high enough, he couldn't create an army of them like Shadow Thief Owl did.
He suffered a lot of injuries, but still managed to reach the 3rd floor.
Even though the Black Tower was very tall, it only had three floors.
The ancient casters' tower had a relatively simple structure, with an underground area filled with holding cells and a hall at the bottom. The second floor had the apprentices' dwellings and the laboratory while the highest floor was the caster's own private residence.
