[Thank you for the welcome]
The thoughts passed in the blink of an eye. Being at the front meant I had no choice but to accept the handshake. I nodded and took the hand.
It was firm.
The grip felt like hardened calluses. A rare case for someone with extraordinary regenerative abilities.
The muscles beneath the skin were different.
They weren't just hard. They were elastic and tough enough for intense movement. Without needing to observe, I could estimate this with just my senses.
Sword.
It was a hand that held and swung a sword. This wasn’t just a deduction from my senses. It was well known that she was a superhuman skilled with a sword.
In the days of turmoil, before becoming the Tower Master of the Space Tower, Sierra was a mercenary known for her excellent swordsmanship.
"...Once again, I welcome the heroes of the Tower."
While I was calculating, she too seemed to evaluate me similarly.
Her pitch-black eyes briefly glanced at the confession necklace, then she nodded and took a few steps back.
"I’m sure you’ve already heard about the current situation, but just in case, let me explain once more."
Now, her black eyes scanned the cadets behind me.
"This area, the third defense line, and much of the magical land have been caught in the dungeon’s rampage and are now isolated from the outside."
The space and time of the second-year students entering the Tower are the magical lands of Africa during the times of turmoil.
We weren’t dropped right in the middle of the magical land. If we had been, most of the cadets would have been finished within three days.
Thus, in order to allow for proper experiences and growth, we were dropped not in the center, but in the front lines, with a few additional settings different from the official ones.
One was the limitation of space based on the justification of the dungeon’s rampage.
"If we just expanded the space unnecessarily, it would consume too much power, and with external support, the experience wouldn’t be genuine."
Another setting was the summoned bodies based on the justification of the Tower of Growth.
- ...Is she a celestial being? The Tower surely connects to the heavens.
- Crazy bastard. But I agree.
- Thwack!
- Throop...
