Chapter 24: The Tower's Trial: 4th Floor♡
"I'm going to the 4th floor!"
- Ooooh
- Yeah, it's about time, yeah
- This should be enough
- Are you going for the true ending?
"The true ending... I'm going for it!"
The final true ending reward available on the tutorial floors. I had to get it, no matter what.
“And I'm not just going to the 4th floor.”
- ???
- What else are you planning?
- No way?
“That's right. This time, I'm going all the way to the 9th floor in one go. How long are we going to stay in the tutorial? It's time to pick up the pace.”

Meanwhile, this place was overflowing with questions as usual.

[Title]: 4th Floor Summary & True Ending Guide
[Content]:
Yo, your big bro is here, noobs.
Seeing all the questions about the 4th floor, looks like some Pantheon TV users watching Lee Do-hee's stream have shown up, huh?
First off, the 4th floor is very simple.
It's a siege battle.
Surprisingly, you're on the attacking side, not defending.
When you get to the 4th floor, you become part of the vanguard and are forced to attack. The problem is, the vanguard is almost always outnumbered by the defenders, so everyone dies.
For the record, you die if you run away, too. The main army is waiting behind you with arrows.
You just have to get on the wall somehow and hold out. The main army will come and clean up, and the trial will end.
It used to be one of the biggest noob-crushers, but now that there's a strategy guide, it's actually one of the floors with a higher survival rate.
The condition for the true ending is nothing special.
Just capture the castle with only the vanguard before the main army arrives to help. That's it.

The next day. In the white space of the 4th-floor waiting room.
“Status window!!”
<Final Stats>
Strength: 24.4
Agility: 7.3
Defense: 20.6
Mana: 204.6
A whopping 24.4 Strength. At this level, it would be hard to find an equal among humanity, unless they were an Awakened.
For this trial, I used the 7 bonus stat points from the 2nd and 3rd floors and an elixir to raise only my Strength by 6.
Excluding the small amount I gained from exercise, that's a total increase of 13.
And one more thing,
<Strength Lv.1>
Consumes 5 Mana to increase Strength by 1 for 1 hour.
Even though a low-level skill book like this cost 50 million won, I bit the bullet and bought it.
What I lack isn't technique or a sharp eye.
It's pure strength. Right now, the most efficient thing to focus on is strength.
- fkn strength monster
- How much can you even lift now?
- This is for the 4th floor...?
- Wow... where did the Lee Do-hee who only had a ridiculously huge mana pool go?
- But isn't it hard to adapt when your strength increases so suddenly?
- fr, I heard Awakened have trouble adapting to sudden stat boosts..
They're right.
Normally, if an Awakened's strength suddenly increases or decreases, their body's balance is thrown off, and they have to spend a significant amount of time adapting to that power.
But I'm different.
I've already used my past body, so I don't need any time to readjust my physique. That's also part of the reason I use buffs as a priest.
“You'll see. I'll show you a clean, swift breakthrough."
Just like last time, various weapons rose up from the white space.
This time, my weapon was a spear.
- Fuck, it's a siege, of course you should use a sword and shield
- How are you gonna block arrows?
- You have to block the arrows, Do-hee
- It's fine, if she loses, she loses.... hehehe
As expected, many viewers were freaking out over my weapon choice, but,
“Just shut up and watch!”
- Guys, this was discussed yesterday
- She did convince us yesterday lololol
- Ah, I didn't watch yesterday~
- Oh, you had a plan?
This time, I didn't just lash out. I had actually worked out a plan with the viewers yesterday.
- Shwoong~
‘A lot will be decided on this floor...’
*
[You are the vanguard in a siege battle. Defeat the enemy and retake the castle.]
The first things I saw were the blue sky and countless soldiers.
Looking down, I saw I had been changed into the armor of a common soldier.
'But, where did the bottom half go...?'
Did they use all the material just to secure the area of the breastplate?
The number of soldiers was roughly 3,000 to 4,000.
‘This should get me an A or B-rank. Not bad. It means the true ending will be that much easier.’
As I was assessing the situation, a commander with a massive build stepped up onto the platform.
He narrowed his eyes and slowly scanned his surroundings.
The vanguard is always prepared for death, but when it's actually upon them, everyone's mind starts to race.
The fearful expressions on the soldiers' faces were clearly visible to the commander.
The commander stared at them silently, then took a deep breath—
“Who are you!!!”
He roared with a deafening voice.
‘Whoa, that startled me.’
And in response to the commander's question, the soldiers, as if thoroughly trained, answered without a moment's hesitation, striking their chests hard with their right hands.
- Thump!!
““We are!! The proud soldiers of the Trahal Kingdom!!!!””
The soldiers answered in unison with a great shout.
A quiet stillness fell until the soldiers' voices echoed back.
But it seemed the commander was still not satisfied with the look in the soldiers' eyes. Just then, his gaze met mine.
'Hm...?'
“You there!!!”
“Eh…?”
“The pink-haired bitch who's been slacking off! Yes, you!! Get your ass up here, now!!!”
He suddenly called me out.
‘Was I standing too still?’
On second thought, I don't think so. Most Awakened would be dazed and just stand there, too.
'Then why me?'
In any case, I couldn't refuse the commander's order.
I quickly ran to the front of the platform.
“Why were you just standing there like an idiot?”
‘Fuck, what is this situation...’
I was at a loss for words at the sudden turn of events.
“Th-that is…”
“Hah, forget it. Soldiers!! Take a good look at this!!!”
- Thud, thud…
The commander came up beside me and turned my body to face the soldiers. His thick hands were on my chin and my shoulder.
“……”
‘What the hell is going on.’
“Do you see? Even a whore like this has come to offer her life for the kingdom!!”
He grabbed my chin and shook it as if I were an object.
‘Fuck, I'm not a whore...’
I was looking for an opening to escape, but this guy... he was absurdly strong.
First, I'll try to reason with him.
“I am not a whore!! I am a soldier, prepared to leap into a pit of fire for the Trahal Kingdom!”
“Oh-ho, is that so? Really?”
“Yes!! That's righ— Kyaa!?”
He suddenly grabbed my breast.
Not only that, but his other hand slipped under my armor and, in one motion, pushed his fingers inside my pussy.
“H-hat…! What are you doing!!!”
“Now!! Look closely, soldiers!!! If you win today's battle, I'll let you have your fill of this woman!!”
"Ooh… really?"
"We can really fuck a woman like that?"
"Hah… I'm definitely winning this battle."
"Hoo~ As expected of the commander!!"
"She looks so fucking hot."
The soldiers murmured, throwing sexually harassing comments at me.
“Now, watch carefully!! I'll teach you how to handle a woman in advance!!!”
“Fuck, huut.. what do you think you're doing!”
His hand pushed relentlessly inside.
“H-hat…!”
A thrilling sensation.
As the sexual stimulation spread through my body, the strength in my muscles drained away slightly.
‘Damn that secret manual...’
“Hoh? Are you secretly enjoying this?”
His fingers went deeper, gently scraping the inside of my vagina.
“K-huut…! No, stop this right… H-hat?”
- Flinch..!
His fingers, exploring inside my vagina, touched my G-spot.
“So this is your weak spot. You react so obviously, hehehe…”
‘Ahhh...’
Countless soldiers were watching me.
Their faces were flushed, and I could even see some of them getting erections.
- Ting~
"Kyaa!?"
He easily stripped off my armor, and my large breasts spilled out, jiggling.
“Wow!! They're fucking huge!!!”
“Fuck, I want to touch them too…!”
- Squish… squelch…!
Every time his thick fingers pleasurably scraped the inside of my vagina, my body would flinch and tremble on its own.
'Fuck, why does this feel good...'
I can't understand a woman's body.
Even though I was being toyed with by just one or two fingers, not even a dick, my pussy was delightedly biting down on them.
“K-huut, stop… don't…”
I couldn't put any strength into my body.
What little strength I had left drained away, making it seem as if I was allowing his touch.
“Hoh? To feel pleasure even in a situation like this, I guess a whore is a whore. You're gripping my fingers quite well.”
He seemed to be getting excited, tearing off the armor covering my pussy and moving his hand more roughly.
- Splish, splosh, splish…!
His fingers ravaged the slick interior of my vagina, turning it into a mess.
I didn't want to feel it, but the pleasant pleasure rising within me was making it impossible to think straight.
‘Ahhh.... what is happening to me here...’
And it was slowly building. A woman's climax was approaching.
‘Ah… no, I can't, not here...’
- Squelch…! Squish!!
My already damp pussy was making wet sounds.
My body began to stiffen as I started to lose control. I focused all my nerves on my pussy, trying to hold back the orgasm.
‘I can't come in a place like this...’
He noticed my reaction and lifted one of my legs, exposing my pussy to everyone.
"K-huut...! What are you...!! Let... go! Haah!!"
'My pussy... everyone is seeing it...'
“Hehehe, now!! Everyone watch this bitch feel pleasure so shamefully!! This is what women are!!!”
“Ooooh!! Is that a pussy?”
“It looks so incredibly lewd.”
“Look at the juice flowing out. Looks like that whore is feeling it too, huh?”
- Squelch... squelch!!
I could feel everyone's gaze focused on my pussy.
Their stares felt as if they were entering my pussy and violating its insides.
And now, as if determined to make me come, his fingers once again began to circle and stimulate my G-spot.
‘Ahhh...’
“Hehe, climax helplessly in front of the soldiers, you whore.”
Just as he intended, an immense pleasure forcibly washed over me.
“A-aht, ah… haah!! Nooo…et!!”
- Squish, squelch, squelch....!
The fingers scraping my vaginal walls quickened their pace. I clenched my teeth and tried to endure, but...
‘Ahhh… I can't... stop this...’
I knew it instinctively. I no longer had the strength to hold back this overwhelming pleasure.
The dam I had built to hold back the rising pleasure burst.
“Hyaaaaaa...!! Haaaaaaang!!!! Heghek!!”
- Pshhhhhhhhh…
I came spectacularly in front of thousands of soldiers, gushing fluids.
My ass trembled uncontrollably as I splattered my juices everywhere.
“Hoot…! O-ok!”
‘I came… I really came, in front of everyone...’
- Spurt! Spurt!!
My pussy twitched, spraying out the remaining fluid.
And when the climax ended, the commander treated me like a dirty piece of luggage, carelessly tossing me into the puddle of my own juices.
- Splat…
‘K-huut… To think I'd go through something like this...’
And then he placed his foot on my ass as I lay face down, still trembling.
“Huup!! It's heavy…!”
“Now, did you see? Return victorious from battle, and I will give you the chance to fuck this slut to your heart's content!!!”
“Waaaaaaaaah!!!!”
“Fuck, I want to fuck her right now!!”
“We'll kill all the enemies and come back!!!”
“Commander, you're the best!!!!”
A very simple way to raise morale.
Stimulate the male reproductive instinct.
“And not just this bitch. The seductive widows waiting for their husbands in that castle, the daughters of high nobles, the innocent young brides who know nothing of the world—you may violate them all!!! I permit you to plunder!!!! Kill the enemy, and take the enemy's women!!!!!”
""Waaaaaaaaah!!!!""
A tremendous roar.
The soldiers' morale soared, as if to pierce the heavens.
If he had merely permitted plunder, they would have worried about their own lives first, but seeing such a visually stimulating sight reverses that order.
The soldiers were all in heat, desperate to have sex right now.
"All troops, advance!!! Take the enemies' wives and violate them!!!"
- Doom~ Doom~
And the advance began immediately. To the sound of great drums, the soldiers began to march in neat rows and columns.
- Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump.
The precise sound of their marching feet was a testament to their soaring morale.
Without anyone ordering them, they all marched forward powerfully in step.
Their flushed, determined faces made them look as if they could never be defeated.
And after most of them had passed, the commander spoke to me.
“Whore, you don't need to fight. Just stay here and enjoy yourself with me, hehehe..."
Of course, I hadn't been idle while the soldiers were marching past.
I reattached the discarded breastplate to the leather armor to cover my chest, and tied the torn bottom part into a knot to cover my vitals.
Although the lips of my pussy were visible from the side, it was better than walking around completely exposed.
"Excuse me? What are you talking about?"
I didn't have time to hesitate here.
"What do you mean? Do you really think I'd offer a high-class whore like you to the soldiers? Those stupid maggots are all going to die today anyway."
The commander reached for me with a lecherous smile.
'I can't just let it happen, even if I saw it coming.'
- Smack!!
I slapped his hand away forcefully, took a step back, and grabbed my spear.
"K-heuk, how dare this whore? I gave you a chance and you kick it away?"
His face twisted in an instant.
Before, I went along with it because I didn't know what kind of bastard he was, but this time was different.
Perhaps sensing the strength in my hand, he didn't rush in recklessly either.
"Hah... if you had just spread your legs quietly, we could have enjoyed ourselves together... Guards!! Seize this bitch at once!!"
'Hah, so you're going to use your authority now?'
His attendant knights slowly closed in around me.
None of them looked like easy opponents. And besides, I didn't have time to be dealing with this here.
'Is there... no way out?'
Just then, other knights came into my view.
'That's it.'
Seeing the tens of thousands of soldiers coming from behind, they were probably command staff from the main army.
I relaxed my combat stance and struck the ground hard with my spear.
- Thump!! Thump!!
And then I performed the salute of the Trahal Kingdom I had just seen.
- Wham!!
I clenched my fist and struck my chest hard.
I took a deep breath and shouted loudly.
"I came here to fight!!!"
"What...?"
"I came here as a valiant soldier of the Trahal Kingdom!! I came to crush our enemies, not to become a whore!!! Give me a chance! Give me the chance to stand at the vanguard and defeat those wicked bastards!!!"
The most fundamental solution.
Can you really trample on a valiant soldier? For your own sexual desire? A commander, no less?
People around us were watching.
Not just his attendant knights, but figures from the main army's command staff were also slowly approaching, their interest piqued by the loud noise.
However,
"K-heuk...... damn bitch, you'd be more useful as a man's plaything!!"
Thinking he had been disrespected, he couldn't hold back and charged.
'I knew it.'
I drew the spear I had ready and thrust with all my might.
- Swissssh!!
A spear thrust aimed precisely at his neck.
But unfortunately, he dodged it by turning his head and dropping to a crouch.
- Drip....
The spear grazed past his face, leaving a small cut on his cheek.
His wide, dumbfounded eyes and stunned face.
'Hah... so close. Should I have raised my Agility more?'
"My lord!!"
His attendant knights drew up their mana and pointed their swords at me again.
"Kraaaaaaaah!!! How dare a mere whore!!"
'I'm fucked.....'
And just as he got up again, drew his sword, and was about to charge.
"Puhahahahahahat!!!!"
A hearty laugh rang out from behind him.
A clear laugh that shattered the taut tension in an instant. On the quiet platform, only his cheerful laughter echoed.
"What? Who are you...."
"It's me, Raymond. Do you still treat women that way?"
"Guard Captain Highlander..."
On the shoulder of Raymond, who was about to attack me, were two stars.
And on the shoulder of the man who was laughing heartily, there were three stars.
I understood the situation in an instant.
"You've lost. Let her go."
"K-heuk.... But, this bitch disobeyed my orders..."
"Orders? Are you not aware that you are currently disobeying the orders of His Majesty the King?"
"What...?"
"All soldiers move under the command of His Majesty the King. You are merely a commander. Make no mistake, it seems you are unaware that obstructing a soldier who is going to fight under His Majesty's command is punishable as treason..."
"Ah......"
Highlander pushed his stunned face aside and approached me.
"Go on. That was excellent spearmanship just now. I hope to see it again someday."
"Thank you."
With his permission, I gave a deep bow and immediately ran toward the battlefield.
And I didn't forget to leave a parting word for that bald bastard.
"You're dead later!!"
"Wha... What!!"
I ran, leaving his stunned face behind me.
“Hah, because of that crazy bastard, I missed my chance to be at the front.”
The humiliation from just now could be paid back later.
For now, clearing the true ending was the priority.
I had no intention of crying and whining just because I suffered a shameful humiliation at an important moment in my life.
'It's not too late. Let's go!'
I sprinted toward the battlefield at full speed.
