Overgeared

The inside of the Tower That Grows Stronger As One Climbs It was very spacious. It was different from when looking at it from the outside.

‘Every time I see this, I think it is a good thing that I have Eat Spicy Jokbal.’

A player with the ability to create an instance dungeon—Eat Spicy Jokbal was the only one.

The dungeons he built were always useful. In particular, the tower he made this time was special. In just a few days, the tower had risen to 227 floors. If it continued to rise like this, wouldn’t it really reach Asgard?

Lauel’s seemingly far-fetched conjecture started to be credible. However, it would probably take at least 1,000 floors to be seen properly.

‘1,000 floors...’

It felt so far away, but also surprisingly close. It took Kraugel just a week to reach the 227th floor. Additionally, the pace of his climb increased every day. It was thanks to the rewards obtained every time a new floor was conquered. This meant that the climber’s growth rate might be faster than the speed at which the boss monster that appeared in 10 floor increments became stronger.

‘Let’s only struggle up to the 50th floor.’

Baal—Grid felt hopeless about having to fight that damn cockroach again, but he breathed in deeply and soothed his mind. Then he took a lunch box out of his inventory. It was the lunch box that Irene made when she woke up at dawn. She even baked the bread herself.

Last night—she hadn’t forgotten Grid’s words that he should finish his rest and resume his activities.

‘Meat, garlic, meat, meat...’

Was garlic the only vegetable...? Why? He wasn’t complaining about the side dishes. He was just puzzled. It was very different from the diet organized by Irene, who often tried to feed Lord vegetables at family meals.

Grid was cocking his head when he found a note from Irene and opened it.

-You have been amazing every night lately. I prepared a lunch box with the hope that my dear husband will maintain your vitality even when you return from a great cause. Please enjoy it and have strength.

“......”

He thought he would have to work hard tonight as well... Grid read Irene’s inner thoughts and was motivated. It had only been a day or two since he became a beast every night. Every time he turned into a beast, he would think, ‘Is this really okay?’ He felt uneasy about it.

Grid had four people to love. Irene might not know it, but every time she fainted, Grid alternately visited Mercedes, Basara, and Marie Rose. He tried his best with the thought that it wasn’t right to leave his wives alone when he had broken the limit using the wish stone acquired from killing Baal. It was worthwhile, but...

Grid slowly chewed every piece of meat and garlic carefully packed in the lunch box while glaring at the entrance of the 10th floor, which lurked beyond the 9th floor. It shouldn’t take half a day this time...

Grid completely changed his mindset and ignited his fighting spirit.

‘Six hours. Kill him in six hours.’

After the success of the hell expedition, Grid had grown exponentially stronger. It wasn’t just because of additional factors such as the stats redistribution, Baal’s power, and Amoract’s power. It was simply because his specs itself had gone up significantly. After surpassing level 1,000, he secured a large number of stat points and even enjoyed the awakening effect.

On the other hand, Baal would be exactly as Grid remembered. Infinite resurrection was impossible. Baal was no longer an object of fear. Of course, Baal would have a passive ability to overcome death, but there would always be a limit to the number of times.

“Let’s go.”

The food buff effect was also more than expected. As expected, the power of love was a great thing...

Grid realized it and entered the 10th floor where Baal welcomed him as before. Of course, he didn’t say anything. This was just his appearance. He might look like Baal and use the same abilities, but he couldn’t think.
