Chapter 30 - To start the climb"How did they give you [Rank-6] when you didn't show any skills and didn't even use all of your strength in the stat test?" Zyon asked, curious about the tricks KiRA had used during his turn.
"Well, I had Holy Power so they thought I still had potential even though I wasn't showing any skills.
They took me to one of their supervisors but they still couldn't find anything about me so they let me go asking me to reassess my status after the first floor was cleared."
KiRA sat down as he handed a cup of coffee to both of them.
Apparently the A2P2 officials knew the three of them were together and were keeping them at the site for the time being.
Since Iz and Zyon had obtained a high rank and needed some special clearance for their licence, they were taking their time.
KiRA on the other hand, wasn't in the same boat.
During his testing turn, he did not use the maximum of his strength. He even manipulated his results during the testing with his experience.
His Holy Power was detected in the testing process, but since it was one of the most difficult energies to grow even in the game, classes like priests and paladins were not famous among the players.
The government officials seemed suspicious of him, but there wasn't much that they could do about him. If he didn't want to show any skills, or was telling the truth about his three support skills with no actual battle power, then they just had to accept it and move on.
If he was reluctant about his own skills, then even they did not have any reason to force him to show those skills.
"You're still [Rank-6] when you didn't use much of your strength. Isn't that impressive already? We aren't even talking about the things you could do without skills and stat powers." Isah wasn't mad at him or anything. She simply sipped on her coffee with a smile.
"It's nothing impressive compared to you two. It's not like you two showed everything you have either, right? Besides, you know what I want."
Being in the spotlight wasn't his thing. Even in the game, the Stingy Dog was famous for not showing up anywhere even while having presence almost everywhere.
"Yeah yeah. You're the hidden villain of the story. Hiding isn't all that fun though, you know? Well... telling you isn't going to be effective anyway." The Hero shook his head, understanding the position of someone like KiRA.
"Tell me, Kai. What're we going to do now?"
The world was aware of the players who had played the Tower of Beginning. They were aware of those who cleared up to a certain floor as well as about the fact that No One had ever gone past the 51st floor.
Those who had gone past the 10th floor were being called [Potential Experts], those who had gone past the 20th floor were called [High experts].
No one who had played the game was coming forward to say they had played the game till that point though. Apparently, they could not share the information about different floors even among the players.
The system was restricting them, which meant unless they came forward on their own, they couldn't find these experts.
The players who had cleared 30th floor and above were far fewer in comparison. And there were rarely those who had cleared beyond the 51st floor.
'Zyon left after the 45th floor, and Isah stopped after the 48th floor. When I was still playing, there were about 6 people who had made it to the 51st floor, but the tower was a different hell after the midpoint.'
No one could go beyond the 51st floor. No one except the one person who ended up clearing the tower.
"Since they're
