Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

Chapter 77: Perseus of Olympos

"I surrender." As Elian said those words, Ariel sent the knives into her inventory and then raised her hand and punched Elion in the face as fast as she could.

Elion seemed to faint instantly, blood pouring from his mouth and lying there with his eyes closed.

Ariel grabbed him by the hair and dragged him out of the room, only to return to the entrance to the inn a short time later and, after everyone had seen him, tossed a money pouch to the old man.

"25,000 gold coins can pay for what was distributed in the master suite and what I did to your table many times over."

With those words, she left the inn, and then, setting Elian down, opened the message window and said aloud:

"I have caught the prey."

-----

[I've caught the prey.]

As James stepped out of the arena, he saw this message window in front of him and then his gaze turned dark.

He turned to the referee and then said, "I'll stay here, no one is fighting me anyway, someone I know is bringing an enemy here until then I'm here." The referee nodded his head, to the astonished looks of everyone around, and emphatically stated that he agreed.

James then returned to the arena and sat down on the floor, placing Clarent next to him and then going to the message window and sending a message to Ariel:

"Bring him to me now, I'll kill him."

-----

[Bring him to me now, I'll kill him.]

When Ariel read what was written in front of her, she bent down and picked Elion up again by the hair.

"Did you hear that? You're going to die, let's take you to your death." Ariel suddenly said, and with that, she turned around and realised that someone was coming towards her. Pulling her knife from her inventory, Ariel suddenly saw the cloak of the person coming towards her billowing. It didn't take her long to recognise the flag on the cloak.

"Olympos," Ariel suddenly said, and with that, she realised where the person had come from.

"Pleased to meet you, Lady Ariel, my name is Perseus, known as the slayer of the mystical human monster Medusa."

When the man who introduced himself as Perseus said these words, Ariel's face smiled, she could not believe that she had met a holy hero.

Perseus was one of the heroes in Greek Mythology. He was the son of Zeus and Danae, the daughter of Eurydice, whom Orpheus was passionately in love with but could never reach. He is the grandson of Acrisius, the king of Argos, whom he hated his grandson and daughter because of a prophecy, and he was the person who was locked in a chest with his mother and thrown into the sea.

With the help of Athena and Hermes, he is the one who killed Medusa, the only mortal from the Gargon race.

He is the only rider of Pegasus and the love of Andromeda. He had a great love affair with Andromeda, whom he saved in Aithopia, which was expected to be destroyed by Poseidon, but unfortunately, he was tried to be detained by Phineus, the former fiance of the young woman.

Some say that Perseus defeated Phineus and his whole group with his sheer strength, some say that he turned the whole group into stone by using Medusa's head and left, and others say that Andromeda died during this battle.

Perseus tries to go to his sister Athena because he does not want to leave his only beloved, but on the way, he is trapped in a room full of water due to an unknown trap, he stays in that water-filled room forever with an undead body, a holy will and a perfect sorrow.

He is one of the greatest heroes of Greek Mythology.

"I have to say this Mr Perseus, in the books of the world I come from, they keep saying what a great hero you are, because of my daughter who is interested in mythology, I have heard your name quite a lot of times, as well as your story." Ariel suddenly said it was possible to say that Perseus' face cheered up when he heard this.

"Same as James..." Perseus suddenly said and Ariel shook her head and said, "I don't know what you're trying to say."

"James met Theseus when he first reached the 5th floor, he told him that his name was written in the books in his world just like you said, and I was honoured to be on the same level as a hero like Theseus."

Ariel was surprised to hear those words and shook her head, wondering for a moment if she and James were from the same world. What exactly were the chances of such a thing happening?

"Shall we go then?" Ariel asked, pulling herself together quickly, when she got the nod from Perceus, she prepared to move but was suddenly stopped in her tracks by Perceus.

"I was sent here by my father, he gave me a device to teleport us, please hold on tight because you may feel a little nauseous." Perseus suddenly said and took out a pen with a lightning symbol.

When he held the pen up in the air and wrote the word 'Arena', it went dark. Suddenly a bolt of lightning struck them and when Ariel opened her eyes again, they were inside the arena, inside the waiting room.

Ariel looked around and then smiled and said, "Well, I'm not a big fan of gods, but I have to admit this is pretty cool."

With that, the people in the waiting room saw Ariel, and each of them stood in a daze.

Ariel was somehow feeling James' energy from above, he must have been sitting in the arena waiting.

The arena itself sends the people coming out of the waiting room to different smaller dimensions inside the arena, and in this way, more than 10,000 people could fight in a day.

So there were hundreds of waiting rooms and things like that, and Ariel was able to get to the small dimension where James was with the help of Perseus.

Elian hadn't woken up and Ariel had to drag him upstairs. Climbing the stairs with Perseus at her side and Elion by the hair, Ariel finally noticed the sunlight in her eyes after a while and then saw the young man sitting in the arena.

"Umbra, we brought him."
