Chapter 282: Seventy-Fourth Floor, Waiting Room (2)
[18 hours 29 minutes until the rest period ends. Please take a rest.]
- Kwon Su-Hyeok (Seventy-fourth Floor): Huh? I didn’t awaken divinity in your previous life?
Her response had confused me.
As I understood it, climbing the tower culminated in becoming a divine being who held dominion over Earth. In other words, a god. Therefore, unlocking Divine Power recently hadn’t surprised me.
From what I recalled, in Ha Hee-Jeong’s previous life, I had reached the ninety-fourth floor. The fact that I could have made it that far without awakening my divinity was unexpected.
As I puzzled over it, her next message came through.
- Ha Hee-Jeong (Seventy-fifth Floor): No, never. Not you, not anyone. No climber ever awakened it.
- Kwon Su-Hyeok (Seventy-fourth Floor): How does anyone become a god, then?
- Ha Hee-Jeong (Seventy-fifth Floor): We just assumed that reaching the hundredth floor meant godhood.
- Kwon Su-Hyeok (Seventy-fourth Floor): Huh? You didn’t unlock Divine Power before?
She explained that, in her previous life, not a single climber had attained divinity by the time they reached the ninetieth floor—yet here I was, awakening mine on the seventy-third.
Her reaction made much more sense now.
