Episode 245 Master of the Tower (2)
They say silence is positivity.
Alio just keeps his mouth shut without any protest.
Because of this, people had no choice but to accept that everything that had happened so far was true.
“That word… “Is it true?”
“Did you really try to kill the Grand Meisters?”
“How… How! What did you do to Floria, who took you in when you were an orphan? “Say something, Alio!”
Agus, Lorna, and Paula questioned Alio with angry faces.
“Whoa… … .”
A soft sigh flowed from Alio’s mouth, which had been silent.
He looked back at the Meisters and opened his mouth.
“… “Have you never thought of that?”
“What do you mean?”
“As time goes by… “I am getting older, but I feel like I will never be able to escape from my teacher’s shadow.”
“… … ?”
“People in the world talk about us as great meisters, but in the end, we are just mere technical wizards belonging to the Tower of Desire. “Even though I devoted all of my youth and youth to this tower, the only limit I can climb is the position of Meister.”
“… … .”
“A teacher is a monster that lives for hundreds of years. Even if I and you die of old age… “For decades and hundreds of years to come, we will once again look down on everyone from the Meister’s name.”
Ailio’s mask, which had been pretending to be calm as he talked quietly, began to crack.
“In the end, no matter how long we fly or how long we fly, we cannot surpass the name of our teacher!”
“… … .”
“why! All I got from giving my all was… At best! Does this have to be all there is? why! Did you want to live a life satisfied with just the name Meister?!”
Beneath the broken mask, Ailio’s bare face, finally revealed, was stained with madness.
“I am for the reform of the tower… And I was planning to shoulder everything for the future of the tower! To do that, I just needed to get rid of the name Grand Meister!”
Ailio’s confession, fired like rapid fire, left everyone speechless.
“Tsk.”
Lois clicked her tongue and looked at Alio.
An old man’s face with wrinkles.
He must have had a time when he was young and full of spirit.
Let’s hone our skills and one day surpass the greatness of our teachers.
Alio in his youth made that promise.
However, as time passed and the disciple grew old and decrepit, the teacher remained young and beautiful.
No matter how hard you try, you cannot reach or escape the shadow of your teacher, let alone overcome it.
After a long period of conflict and agony, the choice Alio made… It was a handshake.
“Alio… … .”
Floria looked shocked by the thoughts her student had been having.
A heavy silence fell in the tower owner’s room, and the atmosphere became solemn.
Ailio closed his eyes as if everything was over.
It was then.
“That’s terrible.”
Cold water was suddenly poured into the solemn atmosphere.
Lois sneered at Alio.
“Even animals do not bite owners who have raised them with care since they were cubs. If you took an orphan from the streets, fed him, put him to sleep, taught him, and made him a meister, it wouldn’t be enough to say that he would be loyal like a dog for the rest of his life… … .”
“That was my effort… … .”
“shut up. You have the right to speak from this Tower of Desire… No, because you don’t even have the right to breathe.”
“… … .”
“You don’t like the fact that this is all you got by sacrificing your youth?”
Lois’s eyes went beyond cold and glowed with life.
“If Floria hadn’t taken you from me in the first place, you wouldn’t be where you are now. “He was probably living on the streets or living as a vagabond.”
“… … .”
“Do you think that the position you are sitting in right now was earned purely through your talent and effort? That’s not even funny. “Where do you think all the money you’ve eaten and drank, all the money you’ve earned, and the knowledge that gave you the honor of being a Meister came from!”
A low growl came from Lois’ mouth.
“Everything about you comes from this Tower of Desire. youth? youth? “Those were things you had to sacrifice for what you are enjoying now!”
“… … .”
“Don’t justify your actions with nonsense. You’re just greedy. “I just wanted more than what I am enjoying now and more than the price you paid.”
Every word of Royce struck the hearts of the Meisters.
Although it was said to Ailio, it was also a warning to other meisters and apprentices.
The tower rewards you in return for what you have given.
But don’t be greedy for more than that.
People swallowed their dry saliva at Lois’ cold warning.
Ailio trembled with a strong sense of humiliation.
Lois took her gaze away from Alio, who was chewing his lips.
His head turned to one side.
“Oh, I almost forgot you.”
At the same time, everyone’s eyes followed Lois’ gaze.
“Huh!”
William took a deep breath as dozens of pairs of eyes were focused on him.
Lois chuckled at this.

“why? “Did you think I’d just get over it because I didn’t say your name?”
“Well, that…” … .”
In fact, William thought so.
I thought he survived because there was no mention of Ailio until his sins were revealed in detail.
But no.
Lois was just leaving William behind to enjoy the most delicious meal.
No matter what anyone says, he was the one who decorated the first chapter of Lois’s murder department.
Lois said to William.
“The way I see it, you are just as much trash as Alio.”
“… … .”
“William Fix. Age 43. You participated in Ailio’s plan, but then betrayed him and attempted to take the position of tower owner yourself. In the process, he came into contact with the Cyron family and stole Victor’s legacy, a valuable asset of the tower.”
Even though people thought there was nothing more surprising about Ailio, they were surprised again.
“Say, the Siron family?”
“How on earth is this going on?!”
William shouted at the sound of a small murmur.
“W-what are you talking about!”
“wait. “Because there are still some left.”
“… … .”
“You have gathered evidence to prove Alio’s guilt in case you fail in today’s top selection. They tried to get him to resign from his position as tower owner by accusing him of being an unscrupulous person who killed his teacher. In addition, he collected the corruption of other Meisters who supported Ailio and even the corruption of the Meisters who followed him. Ah, thank you for that. “Thanks to you, work has become much easier.”
“… … ?!”
In other words, most of the corruption revealed by Lois came from William.
“You shared that information with the Siron family and attempted to take over the tower with their help.”
“It’s a conspiracy! “It’s not true!”
William shouted that, but since everything Lois had said so far had already been proven to be true, this time too, the weight was placed on his words being true.
On the one hand, it provided an explanation as to why William, who had been passed over in the top selection, was able to congratulate Ailio so leisurely.
Lois smiled as she saw William waving his arms out wide.
“It’s a conspiracy… I bet my position as the owner of the tower that there is Victor’s legacy in the safe under the bed in your room. “What do you want to bet?”
“… … ?!”
“I have staked my position as the owner of the tower… “You just have to risk your neck.”
William, whose face became pale, hesitated and took a step back.
The place he is heading to is the entrance door.
but.
“Where are you going?”
Agus blocked William.
A little further back, Harold raised his hammer and raised his eyes.
William, who was so startled that he fell away from them, shouted desperately.
“Da, don’t come closer!”
“… … .”
“If you give me one command, the soldiers of Siron Territory will come rushing here right away! Siron’s warriors are already waiting!”
“Aha, are they trying to devour the tower?”
Lois smiled and waved her hand.
“try.”
“… what?”
“Please contact me quickly.”
Ugh-.
William is already at the edge of a cliff.
He gritted his teeth and took out the communication stone from his pocket.
Huh-huh-.
The short signal continued several times.
When the other party didn’t answer immediately, a look of nervousness appeared on William’s face.
It was that moment.
yes!
A short vibration signaled that the communication seat was connected.
At this, William’s face brightened.
He urgently raised his voice into the communication box.
“Hey, hey! This is where things go wrong! Send troops now! hurry!”
William believed.
He said that the troops of Siron Territory would be his lifeline.
As if responding to his expectations, a voice came from the communication box.
[hello?]
However, the voice was not what William was waiting for.
A clear female voice.
[Roy?]
When Lois stretched out her hand at the voice calling her, the communication stone William was holding flew towards Lois.
Lois, who had taken the communication seat, smiled and asked.
“What happened?”
[Of course I caught them all!]
“How many people?”
[I think there are about 50 people? see… One, two, three… uh? hey! Tania, Kendrick! Stop hitting me! Then I will die!]
“… … .”
[Khan, go and stop him!]
The loud noise beyond the communication box echoed in the tower owner’s room.
[Oh sorry. I think they may not be able to control their strength after using their bodies for the first time in a long time. So what to do with these? Kill me?]
It was just a voice coming from beyond the communication table, but those who heard it felt goosebumps rising.
“it’s okay. “Don’t kill him yet.”
[hmm… But Roy… … .]
“why?”
[Maybe we hit it a little too hard and some of them even threatened to kill us? … Should I save him?]
“How can I save you? Leave it alone. If I die, it’s my fate. “I’ll get back to you once I’ve finished cleaning up here.”
[huh! okay!]
That ended the communication.
William’s face turned pale at the realization that the lifeline he had trusted had been cut.
There is silence again.
Furry-.
Royce threw a mana restraint ball from subspace.
“There you are.”
“yes? Ah yes!”
“Fill them with this.”
“All right!”
Meister Andres, who was nominated by Royce, quickly picked up the mana restraint ball and approached the sinners.
Although it was a matter of arresting someone who had once been a colleague, Andrés’ face showed no hesitation whatsoever.
In this way, everyone who participated in this incident, including William and Alio, were put in prison.
“hmm… “For now, it’s over here.”
Lois turned her head.
Every time his gaze passed by, the Meister and other first-class apprentices shrugged their shoulders.
Every time his eyes turned, my body automatically reacted because I saw with my own eyes what was happening.
“It’s scary.”
Royce’s gaze fell on Agus.
“Agus.”
“Yes, tower owner.”
Agus calls Royce the owner of the tower and bows his head politely.
Lois’ smile deepened at his quick insight and adaptability.
“I heard that you are the person in charge of the Transcendence Corps operated by the tower.”
“That’s right.”
“How many people are there in total?”
“There are 130 level 4 transcendental pilots, 50 level 3 transcendental pilots, and 20 level 2 transcendental pilots, for a total of 200 people.”
“A transcendental machine that can be operated immediately.”
“All 200 aircraft are operational.”
“okay? Then get everything ready.”
“yes?”
“Give me one hour. “When I give the order, fully arm yourself and stand by so that everyone can deploy within 10 seconds.”
“Get on, Top Lord?”
It was a whopping 200 years of transcendence.
In addition, there are twenty second-level transcendent techniques.
It had the power to completely destroy a decent kingdom.
Lois silently walked to the video transmitter with a look in her eyes as if she was asking what she was going to do with the troops.
A cool voice came from Lois in front of him.
“Marquis Cyron, are you watching? “If you had dared to aim for my tower, you would have been confident enough to take care of it, right?”
The corners of Lois’ mouth twitched.
“Look forward to it. “I will come to you soon.”
That too along with the 200 transcendental planes.
Lois’ words were practically a declaration of war.
The mouths of those who were watching this were gaping.
Meanwhile, Agus trembled from the shiver rising from his toes.
‘iced coffee… this person is… … .’
Lois’ presence makes everyone submit.
While wandering the battlefield, I saw many warriors, generals, and kings, but no one had the same spirit as Royce.
Just standing in front of him made me bow my head, and military spirit boiled deep in my heart.
‘He is the emperor!’
He was not an ordinary emperor, but a strong conqueror who would follow the path of defeat and devour all territories.
At this, Agus realized his fate.
The reason why he came to the Tower of Desire.
That was to meet Lois and be loyal to her.
“Agus.”
“Yes, Tower Lord!”
“What is the answer?”
Agus answered Lois’ question vigorously.
“I will follow your orders!”
Agus’s heart pounded so hard at the presence of Topju walking the path.
