The Greatest Architect

Glug-ug! Tukukuku-ku!

A freak exploded.

The earth is buzzing.

Each time, the shadow of the moon draws near from behind.

A giant silhouette that rushes into the moonlight and night sky.

Gigatitan roars.

In front of him, Podong rushed out.

I exhaled tirelessly.

I hit the ground with my heavier legs.

However, the distance from Gigatitan in pursuit has been narrowed to Cinnamon.

The gigantic bridge of Gigatitan grows closer and closer to the roar as it moves.

‘We don't have much time. ’

Lloyd looks back.

Three minutes, tops.

You have five minutes if you're really good.

Given the current situation, Gigantian should have caught Podong by that time.

Of course, neither he nor Xaviel will be safe.

Lloyd's eyes widen.

‘Skill Spear. Asran Deep Law. ’

Skill menu opened.

I chose Asran.

Skill information flashes before my eyes.

Ding-dong.

[Aslahan Insights: Double Circle Lv 4]

[Mana Amplification Rate: 260%]

[Skill Only Option ① Energizer ② Enhancement Explosion ③ Sleep Mode]

[RP for next level up: 190]

[Current RP: 1901]

‘Good.'

It was an Aslahan law that had invested a lot of RP in ant holes in the past.

I was able to grow to a level of Double Circle 1.

Afterwards, level 2 has risen in the process of making ice to fill the glacier in the oak precinct.

Afterwards, he repeated the gap.

Thanks to this, Asran reached the fourth level of the Double Circle.

‘Phew. Maybe we don't have enough RP. ’

Lloyd checked the remaining RP.

1901.

It seemed a little convenient.

‘I used to have 500 RP, but now I don't even have a chin. ’

Now the RP to grow level 1 was just like 190.

Such RP consumption will be more like a snowball in the future.

‘But we have to try. We don't have a choice right now. ’

Upgrading Asran to Triple Circle.

To do that, Lloyd selected a menu under the skill window.

[Do you want to invest RP in Asran's deep legal growth?]

[YES/NO]

‘Course it is. ’

There's no time to hesitate anyway.

He nods immediately.

Ding-dong!

[Skill Level Up!]

[Aslahan Insights: Double Circle Lv 5]

[Mana Amplification Rate: 280%]

[RP for next level up: 220]

[Current RP: 1711]

‘Hmm, this is tough. ’

Multiple information that comes to mind.

Seeing that, Lloyd clenches his fist.

The numbers in my head have gone back to Pava.

‘Once I leveled up, I got 30 RP for level-up. If we keep going at this pace, well, we're running a little short on RP. ’

I had a strong feeling.

Anyway, now he's decided that Asran needs to be promoted to Triple Circle.

But if you want to make it to Triple Circle, you need to take it one step further from Level 10 of Double Circle.

The problem was that the RP seemed to be a little short.

‘If the required RP really grows as expected……… maybe the last step will be 51 RP short. ’

But now there was no way to confirm it in advance.

No, there was only one way.

It was about continuing the skill level-up.

‘The yard started anyway. I can't take it out anymore. Kill or be fed, let's go! ’

Situation already judged.

He decided to pour out the RP in bulk.

Asran's core law level has risen.

Double Circle Level 5 to Level 6.

Level 7 to 8.

Levels 9 through 10.

And there was a limit.

Ding-dong.

[Skill Level Up!]

[Aslahan Insights: Double Circle Lv 10]

[Mana Amplification Rate: 380%]

[RP for next level up: 370]

[Current RP: 319]

“Tsk.”

I heard a strong feeling doesn't go unnoticed.

Lloyd kicks his tongue.

My guess was right.

The calculation that I had quoted beforehand was shocking.

‘Phew. This is a true story. ’

The real story was the problem.

The indiscretion bloomed.

‘I've been gathering so hard. ’

That RP was a real piece of junk.

I gathered gradually, increasing my liking for Xaviel and the Baroness.

I have accumulated many accomplishments under construction and also received a large amount of bonus RP.

Every time I do that, I get the urge to try RP from time to time.

But I endured it.

It's going to be useful when you really need it.

It's a rare resource to be used as a weapon in your own spleen.

Like pouring gold for 10, 20 years.

Or like collecting coupons stickers for local Chinese restaurants.

It was a really hard RP to collect.

‘Still, it's not enough. ’

It was really unfair.

But now was not the time to struggle with injustice.

Glug! Kuku!

Suddenly, the distance from Gigatitan was narrowed.

On the other hand, Podong's running was slower than before.

I was tired.

We really need to come up with something.

An astonishingly developed level 10 double circle means you can neither die nor eat.

‘We must make it to Triple Circle. That way we can use the blast wave! ’

The only chance of penetrating the crust of that gigantitan.

Conditions for realizing that possibility.

I need RP! Now! "

Lloyd's brain is gone.

I remembered all the possibilities.

I've finally come to a conclusion.

His one hand raises as hard as it can.

And it was swirled violently.

Boom! Boom!

Lloyd's palm slaps Xaviel in the cheek as he faints.

He shouts.

“Hey, man! Get up!”

Boom, boom, boom!

I hit him in a row.

I shook his collar.

“Get up! Open your eyes! ”

Boom! Boom! Boom!

I hit him again and again.

I only hit where I hit.

Xaviel's cheeks are red.

After a few more hits, Xaviel opened his eyes.

“Mmmm... ”

Xaviel frowns in agony.

You look this way with your confused eyes.

“Lloyd……? ”

A single voice.

Lloyd's face was wide open.

A greeting and cheerful expression sweeps over his face.

“Yes, it's me. Are you awake?"

“Yes, a little... khhh. ”

“Don't overdo it. ”

Xaviel, who was trying to get up by force, falls down again.

I gasp and gasp.

Lloyd quickly reaches out.

He raised Xaviel like that and laid him down.

His shoulders were throbbing.

“You're hurt a lot. ”

“But, Lloyd, I... ”

“I know. You want to keep fighting. ”

“Yes, so now……. ”

“No, take a break. ”

“Lloyd? ”

“If you continue to fight here, you will die. Is that what you want? ”

“Of course. A lot of people are going to get hurt if I don't." ”

“What do I have to lose? ”

“…… Yes? ”

Xaviel stops.

Lloyd grins bitterly.

“Losing you would make me look like a winged eagle. ”

“Lloyd? ”

“To be honest, I don't want to lose you. I don't want you to overdo it. I don't want you to sacrifice yourself. ”

“ ……. ”

“Fight only for me from now on. ”

“But now, Lloyd... ”

“Leave it to me. I fight here. ”

“Lloyd? ”

“Do you trust me? ”

“I……. ”

“Do you trust me?" ”

“ ……. ”

Xaviel's eyes look up this way.

The look in his eyes seemed to ask if he meant it.

Lloyd took that look in his eyes with confidence.

Instead of saying it, I answered firmly with a silent buyer.

You nod with your solemn sunken eyes.

“Lloyd……. ”

Is it only through this mind?

Xaviel's restless eyes calm.

The power that entered my body was relaxed.

I breathed in peace.

“Then I will... trust Lloyd... ”

“Yes. Rest. ”

“Yes, Lloyd…… ”

Glug.

Xaviel's eyes are closed.

I breathed my last breath.

I fainted again, relaxed.

At the same time, I remembered a message waiting for Lloyd to wake up.

Ding-dong.

[Xaviel Asrahan truly believes in your resolve, and is relieved.]

[Xaviel Asrahan was deeply impressed by your appearance after wanting to fight for the cause.]

[Xaviel Asrahan's affection for you has increased by +4.]

[Current relationship with Xaviel Asrahan: +5]

[Visible relationship improvement with key people earned 72 RP.]

[Current RP: 391]

[Amity with Xaviel Asrahan has been upgraded from Normal to Average Interest.]]

[Increased bonus to Amity Rank + 25 RP.]

[Current RP: 416]

All right!

Lloyd clenches his fist.

It was an instant RP extraction, no, exploitation operation.

‘Phew, I almost lost all my hands and feet. ’

I woke Xaviel up hard.

He was barely conscious.

I didn't have much time.

Before he fainted again, he squeezed out everything he could think of.

After spitting that comment, I desperately had to endure the aggravation. All the way to the duodenal ridge, Augrad was able to endure the sensation with all his strength.

But it was worth it.

Xaviel blinks at what he's blown so hard on.

Fiercely leaving a message of faith.) and fainted.

Of course, I was more fond of him.

Thanks to you, I got 97 RP's. ’

The final threshold for upgrading Asran Simulation to Triple Stage.

RP that was a little short on that threshold.

It was enough to swallow.

Lloyd opened the skill window.

I invested RP without hesitation.

I remembered the message I was waiting for.

Ding-dong.

[Skill Rank Up!]

This is it!

Lloyd cheers inside.

I finally felt like I'd crossed another threshold.

He quickly read the prompt that popped up before his eyes.

[Asran's Law Rank has increased to Triple.]

[Skill Rank increases to enhance existing skill options.]

[Asran Jurisdiction: Triple Circle Lv 1]

[Mana Amplification Rate: 500%]

[Skill Only Option ①: Take full advantage of the efficiency of Energizer Triple Circle. With the option feature, you'll be able to move without tiring for 20 minutes. (Limit: 2 uses per day.)]

[Skill Only Option ②: Increases the Enhancement Performance of the Explosive Circle to its maximum. You get 5x more Mana Amplification for 30 seconds when using the Options feature. However, once the option is enabled, the user will be exhausted and unavailable for one day. (Limited: only available once a day.)]

[Skill Only Option ③: Sleep mode can be used weakly even in extreme exhaustion. The Mana amplification rate is fixed at 25%.]

[RP for next level up: 500]

[Current RP: 46]

‘Oh, my gosh. ’

Lloyd's eyes are wide open.

Asran's Mana amplification rate jumped to 500%.

As proof of that, a new loop was created around his heart.

Kieing!

The third circle wrapped around the heart.

I started spinning resonating with the two existing circles.

The effect was surprising.

Kuang! Kuang!

My heart was beating like never before.

The blood rushed into the blood vessels at an unprecedented rate.

It wasn't just that.

My breathing changed.

Just a handful of inhalations made my muscles stronger.

I didn't care about anything, just breathing normally.

It was like inhaling steroids in real time through the air!

‘This is not a joke. ’

So this is the power of the Triple Circle.

Lloyd realized the huge difference in a single phase of the circle.

‘Plus, we've grown into options. ’

All three of my existing options were upgraded.

The trigger time and number of energizers doubled.

Enhancement explosion also increased time by 10 seconds. The amplification rate was five times higher.

The same was true of sleep mode.

Emergency amplification rate has increased from 10 to 25 percent. ’

15% difference in amplification rate that can be mobilized even when exhausted.

That difference will be the difference between life and death at the moment of the incision.

Moreover, growth was not over.

There was something else that really surprised him.

Ding-dong.

Another ringtone in my ear.

Immediately after that, a new message came to my mind that I had never thought of.

[New skill options have been opened as skill rank increases.]

[Skill Only Option ④: Adjust the number of revolutions (RPM) per minute for each Mana Circle held by the Circle Shift to the preset six (16) levels to keep it stationary. This option will help beginners to use the wave.]

‘What……. ’

A message I never thought of.

New possibilities you never expected.

Lloyd's eyes read with a sense of victory.
