Chapter 475: Ninety-Eighth Floor, Waiting Room (3)
Earth, after the events on the ninety-seventh floor.[(Tower of Ordeal Special) The End Comes Into View — Where Do We Stand Now?]
As of 3:48 a.m. today, Kwon Su-Hyeok, widely known by the moniker “Light Su-Hyeok,” has successfully cleared the ninety-seventh floor of the Tower of Ordeal.
Based on the observed pattern, he is expected to take a brief respite of a day or two before advancing to the ninety-eighth floor.
Although no official information has been disclosed on Earth, judging by the power displayed by the “gods” appearing in the broadcasted footage and by Kwon Su-Hyeok’s own abilities, the prevailing theory is that the tower’s summit lies at the one-hundredth floor. In other words, the event that once brought immense shock to all of humanity appears to be nearing its end.
Given the countless speculations surrounding the tower, this article will refrain from adding to them. Instead, with only three floors remaining, we aim to shed light on the current state of the world.
What began as a joke similar to the “Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster,” the so-called “Kwon Su-Hyeok Sect” has steadily expanded its influence. Originating in the United States, it now operates websites in more than a hundred countries.
As Kwon Su-Hyeok’s achievements continue and the organization refrains from any cult-like behavior, along with openly disclosing all donations and financial records, the number of followers has continued to rise.
While some join in jest, many genuinely believe that Kwon Su-Hyeok will ascend to become Earth’s god, particularly in light of the surreal circumstances surrounding the Tower of Ordeal.
Meanwhile, the bar where Kwon Su-Hyeok was reportedly seen just before his summoning has become a viral spot, packed daily with visitors.
Countless flower wreaths wishing for his safe return now fill the entrance to the point that the storefront is barely visible. However, the establishment continues to report record-breaking sales. The table where Kwon Su-Hyeok and Ha Hee-Jeong were once seated now requires a waiting time of up to six hours.
In addition, a prominent American CEO publicly announced on social media his wish to collaborate with Kwon Su-Hyeok on a Mars colonization project. Reportedly, he arrived in Korea two weeks ago and has remained there since, awaiting the opportunity.
