Chapter 18
“Guru-yang, you know that there used to be a ‘Tower,’ right?”
Guru nodded.
The Cataclysm.
A time when monsters and dungeons never seen before emerged, alongside individuals with special powers.
The Tower had risen exactly two years after the chaos had yet to subside.
It could be found in every country and could be entered from anywhere.
People called it the ‘Tower.’
Without even giving humanity a chance to fully understand what it was, the Tower began a countdown to the end of civilization.
At that time, Awakeners and dungeons hadn’t yet stabilized, making it an era of extreme turmoil.
However, thanks to the countless sacrifices of the first-generation Awakeners, the Tower was conquered within three years. Now, the terrifying existence of the Tower had been reduced to nothing more than a common fairy tale motif.
Yun Seojun, an experienced father who had raised two sons, skillfully comforted Guru as he continued his explanation.
“Guru-yang, Guild Master-nim was actually a hero who fought against terrifying monsters inside the Tower.”
