Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

Chapter 179 Entering The Tower

There was definitely a change in the atmosphere between Zick and Yuriel. With their relationship turning intimate, Yuriel felt a lot closer to Zick.

Zick didn't let the atmosphere affect his thoughts at all: 'Hmm, though some time had passed, Vuerin must be confined in her prison by now.'

'I wanted to meet her in her weakest state but it doesn't matter. Keeping good relations with every subordinate isn't necessarily a good thing. As long as she heeds my order I don't care much.' Zick didn't think that good of Vuerin.

Her personality wasn't the type that easily bent to other people. Kindness wasn't that effective against her too, Zick just wanted to try it in the end.

Vuerin, this harem member, was very important in Zick's plan. She could control hundreds of thousands of corpses at once, forming a formidable force.

Even her individual strength was not bad, she could threaten the grandmaster rank beings' life.

For this reason, Zick still wanted to try to win over this person. Most normal women would naturally come to like the people who saved them.

Well, it was only for normal women in the end. Vuerin was not in this category.

Hence, Zick was planning on gaining her recognition in another way.

'It must have been four years since she was captured. If my calculation isn't wrong. The experiment to create an impure mana golem started seven years ago and Vuerin was captured three years after that.' Zick put on the black mask again.

"Sir Zick, Do I proceed as instructed?" Yuriel asked for confirmation.

"Yes, there is no change in plan, we are going to enter the alchemy stealthily as I instructed," Zick spoke firmly.

Nodding her head, Yuriel cast invisible magic upon herself and Zick. With a flash of purple light, both of their figures vanished instantly.

They reappeared above the sky, right before the alchemy tower.

This process was very similar to the [ Warp ] that Zick created but at the same time, it wasn't.

[Warp] magic turns a person's body into mana particles before transporting him. But in the case of the magic cast by Yuriel, it used the magic of another element altogether.

This magic could be said to be real teleporting magic too. After all, this spell was in the space element category.

Her specialty in space magic was something that Zick yearned for. But unfortunately, Zick had no affinity with space elements at all.

The majestic tower in front of them was very huge. It almost reached the sky and thousands of different types of magic circles and artistic works could be seen drawn on it.

It felt like a golden hue was coursing through the whole tower making it look more magnificent.

And the most outstanding fact was that — it was more than 1200 meters!

The tallest tower back on Earth was within 900 meters, totally below this tower before Zick.

Once again, Zick and Yuriel's bodies vanished with a flash of purple light. This time, they directly appeared before the top floor of the tower.

There was a limit to how far the space magic could take you with a single use. According to Yuriel, her current limit was around one kilometer.

'The best thing about this space magic is that it cannot be interrupted easily.' Zick's eyes got downcast thinking it was not possible to learn space magic.

'Well, I can try increasing my affinity if I ever get my hand on space essence similar to snow essence.' Zick threw this matter in the back of his head and focused on his current objective.

Flying near the wall of the highest floor of the Jhesker alchemy tower, Yuriel placed her hand on it lightly. One by one, all the magic spells and devices stationed for surveillance stopped working.

After two minutes, Yuriel retracted her hand and nodded toward Zick.

Zick's eyes shone behind the mask: 'Now, even if I destroyed this whole floor no alarm would ring out. Unless a person finds out with their senses, it was hard to know that someone had intruded the tower.'

Zick applauded Yuriel's ability mentally. Knowing and experiencing the benefits were two different things. This ability had a wide range of use, enough to entice Zick into hoarding it.

"How many times more can you use space magic?" Zick asked with a thoughtful look.

"Seven to eight times more...." Yuriel answered with a calm look.

"Alright save it for now. Is there anyone present on this floor right at the moment?" Zick pointed his thumb at the wall before him.

After focusing for a second, Yutiel shook her head lightly.

"Let's enter if that's the case." Zick folded his hand.

BAM!

Yuriel punched a hole into the tower's top floor with a simple punch.

Entering the tower, Zick found himself in a long hall with a huge dining table at the end of his sight. He had entered the tower master's dining hall.

Bringing out memories from when Aeiron invaded the Jhesker tower, Zick started moving toward the study room of the tower master. Yuriel had the outline of the whole floor so he was able to reach his destination in no time.

Zick could currently move so freely because the tower genie had not activated. If it had awakened tons of traps would have been activated by now.

Fortunately, all the devices and magic spells were deactivated by Yuriel.

'It's like Yuriel's ability is made to invade the alchemy towers.' Zick thought with certain speculation forming in his head.

'It would have been easier if She could just take over the tower genie but that's not possible.'

Soon, Zick and Yuriel arrived in a luxurious room. There was a desk with many research papers and couches around the room. At the right corner of the room, a device in the shape of an oven was positioned, and a red potion was within it gurgling wildly.

Looking at the certain kind of alchemy device for a second, Zick waved his hand, directly placing it within his space ring. There were similar devices in the secret lab, so surely it was a useful device.

Zick turned to the wall behind the desk next: 'The stairway must be behind this wall.'

Before Zick could say anything, Yuriel lightly spoke to him with keen interest on her face: "Sir Zick, there is a secret passage here that can be opened by pressing upon the right eye of that statue."

Hearing this, Zick nodded his head: 'Right, she has the whole floor's layout mapped out by using her special ability.'

Zick looked at the statue of a certain goddess in front of Yuriel. The church in the Neokelt kingdom was called the church of prosperity.

It was a unique church that could give blessings to people, this blessing could make a person prosperous in the future with a certain success rate.

The stronger the blessing, the higher the chances of making a fortune in the future. And of course, the church asked for tons of money to cast the blessing. It was a kind of gamble in itself.

But It was really an ability that broke all common sense. A person getting prosperous just like this was not something that could be described using any common means.

As for the battle aspect of the priest in this church, it was formidable too. They could strengthen themselves or use many special techniques by sacrificing money.

In other words, as long as they aren't killed instantly and still have money, they could keep healing themselves and fight forever.

"Open the passageway." Zick said with no hesitation.

Yuriel pressed the right eye of the statue instantly.

With a rumbling sound, the wall behind the desk caved in and moved aside.

'The alchemy tower master was quite cautious. He didn't make the passage's door with any magic instruments so that it would not be possible to sense anything.' Zick walked into the passage with Yuriel.

The passage was completely dark with not even a lamp on the wall.

The invisible magic cast on them was still active, no one would be able to see them even if they walked right past them.

After walking for a minute, Zick arrived before a steel door with the same infrastructure as the one in the secret lab.

"Open it," Zick ordered with an expressionless face.

Yuriel flicked the steel door immediately. The door went flying inside with no resistance. Her physical capability was monstrous too.

Zick continued moving at once.

"Sir Zick..." Yuriel called out from behind.

"Hmm?" Zick looked at Yuriel with a questioning look.

"I have been analysing the data and it seems your sperm is not compatible to make me pregnant," Yuriel spoke with a calm look like it was the most natural thing in the world.

'Oh, she was curious about such a matter? Well, I knew of this fact from the beginning so whatever.'

Zick smiled: "Isn't that good then? You can come to me anytime you feel like relieving yourself Sexually. It helps me to relax too, it's a win-win situation for both of us."

Hearing Zick openly inviting her, Yuriel nodded her head.

'It helps him to relax...? Is he anxious about something?' Though Yuriel was not that knowledgeable about psychology, she was able to learn things very quickly.

Human relation and behavior was a matter that interested her.

Thinking for a second, Yuriel spoke slowly: "Sir Zick...I belong to you. You can do anything you want with me, there is no reason to ask for my permission."

Hearing this, Zick's steps came to a stop. The air around them changed at once, it got heavier by a level.

Turning around, Zick walked right before Yuriel. He knew that at moments like this, he should show off some of his 'consciousness'.

"Will that make me any different than a rapist? Or Are you telling me to become a rapist?" Zick spoke angrily, his eyes were filled with rage right at the moment. His breathing turned rough too.

"No, that isn't what I meant...." Yuriel averted her eyes. Suddenly, a hand was placed on her head.

At once Yuriel's expression turned dazed. A warm feeling on her head gave her a feeling of relaxation.

She kept experiencing this kind of thing with Zick for a while. She didn't know, but in her mind, Zick's image was growing stronger.

Rubbing the head of Yuriel who looked at the ground, Zick spoke with warmth in his voice: "You have your own free will, I won't force you until it's necessary. You can voice out your opinion if you want to." Zick didn't lie fully. He made it clear that he would make her follow his order forcefully when truly necessary.

"Mmh." Yuriel nodded her head blankly. The weird feeling she had in her heart was incomprehensible to her.

Zick's and Yuriel's height was roughly the same and she bowed her head so it was easier for Zick to pat her.

Zick calculated coldly: 'If there ever comes a time when Yuriel truly removes the influence of the red gem, she would not turn against me.'

Actually, the chances of Yuriel getting free were low, but what if God were to influence in this matter?

Zick would lose a precious asset at once!

That was the reason he was willing to act to this extent.

Zick and Yuriel started going deeper into the dark corridor. Yuriel's body moved near Zick subconsciously.

And as such, Zick continued brainwashing Yuriel who was still a blank paper in terms of experience in relationships.

'It's not like I have much experience in a relationship too. The reason why I have been succeeding in reducing things is just because of meticulousness.' Zick considered his shortcomings.
