20th Floor of the Black Tower.

“Hey, youngest. Do you know why I, a lower bone rank, aimed to overthrow the bone rank caste system?”

Koto, the leader of the Crying Skeleton Gang and the master of the ‘Shoddy Skeleton Castle’ on the 20th floor, asked the King of Farming.

Chuk.

As he gently placed his right hand on the sword handle.

“No… I don’t know.”

How would I know that? The King of Farming shrank his neck, intimidated by Koto’s actions.

Honestly, he wasn’t curious at all.

He is a priest tasked with following the orders of the Goddess of Abundance, Leah. He didn’t have time to casually join a revolution right now.

‘Just let me go.’

The King of Farming swallowed what he really wanted to say. After all, a sword could fly towards his neck if he did.

“Of course. You’re the youngest. You wouldn’t know.”

Then why did you ask when you knew…

“Listen carefully, youngest.”

Koto began to explain with a voice filled with nostalgia.

“It was exactly 77 days ago…”

On the 99th floor of the Black Tower, the Wizard tower opening ceremony was held.

Since Iona, the destructive wizard, invited them, most of the named monsters in the Black Tower attended.

They couldn’t refuse, for fear of what might happen later.

Koto wasn’t personally invited, but he attended the ceremony to serve Ker, the ruler of the 93rd floor of the tower, and his son Ber, who were nobles.

And

“That’s where I met him…”

Ordered by higher-ranking skeletons, Koto commanded a common bone to offer bones.

“However, during a scuffle, I ended up losing my right arm bone to that common bone, and I was severely beaten with my own arm bone.” (TL: If you don’t remember the bone caste is like this -> Sacred Bone – True Bone – Noble Bone – Common Bone – Mixed Bone and True Bone and above are called nobles)

Later, other noble and higher bones intervened, but they ended up pulverized by a bear following the common bone and are still recovering.

“At first, I was angry about being hit by the common bone… but seeing other noble and higher bones turned to dust opened my eyes.”

Koto said he realized then.

“Ah. What does it matter if he’s a common bone? If one is strong, that’s all that matters… Such an outdated bone rank system is unnecessary.”

Thus, after returning to the 20th floor, Koto formed the Crying Skeleton Gang and began gathering like-minded comrades.

“That common bone was him. He executed the noble and higher bones and then vanished. And this right arm is the glorious arm he swung then. Would you like to touch it?”

Clatter.

Koto proudly extended his right arm.

“…”

He wanted to say no, but saying no would surely provoke Koto to draw his sword, so the King of Farming merely pretended to touch Koto’s right arm.

“How is it?”

Koto asked with anticipation.

“What? What is it?”

“Doesn’t it ignite your passion for overthrowing the bone rank system?

“Yes…”

The safe answer was predetermined.

Thus, the King of Farming learned the story behind the founding of the Crying Skeleton Gang.

“Soon, we will attack noble Dor’s Skeleton Castle on the 76th floor to overthrow the bone rank system.”

Koto shared his future ambitions.

At that moment,

“Koto~nim, floor-climbers are approaching!”

A lookout from the Crying Skeleton Gang reported the approach of hunters.

“Great! Let’s show the skills of our Crying Skeleton Gang!”

“Yes!”

Clatter. Clatter.

Following the shout, Koto and the other four subordinates collapsed their bodies. They were pretending to be dead.
