Chapter 15 - The First Step into the Tower of Chaos

The First Step into the Tower of Chaos

As Danilo took the step toward the massive tower that dominated the horizon, he felt the world tremble for an instant.

The black structure seemed close, even though it stood miles away.

When he murmured the words:

— "I want to enter the Tower…"

...his vision was swallowed by darkness.

When he opened his eyes, he was inside.

The space was absurdly vast — as if an entire universe had been encapsulated inside a cathedral.

The floor was made of polished stones that reflected like mirrors.

Black columns, inscribed with lost languages, held up a golden ceiling, and floating stained glass panes danced in the air, casting multicolored lights all around.

In front of him stood two massive doors:

⚔️ Door of Challenge

📜 Door of Job Change

The atmosphere was sacred — simply breathing there felt like a privilege.

Danilo frowned and asked:

— "Job… change?"

A feminine, ethereal, and calm voice responded:

📢 "Job change is the process of career evolution. All professions have branches — some common, others rare. And there are professions that only a single person in all existence may obtain. These are known as Unique Classes."

📢 "Job change is only possible after reaching level 10."

Danilo clenched his fists. With rising anticipation, he approached the door and tried to open it…

Nothing happened. A screen appeared before him:

🔒 MINIMUM REQUIREMENT: Level 10

— "Damn it…"

— "So how do you get one of those Unique Classes?"

📢 "The host must achieve exceptional scores in the tower's trials. The system evaluates multiple parameters: courage, mastery, speed, lineage, compatibility, and fate. Some people, however, are chosen... born with supernatural bodies, ancient inheritances, divine bloodlines."

Danilo touched his chin, thoughtful.

— "Divine bloodline, huh...? Mine is chaotic… Does that count?"

He smiled, confident. Even without fully understanding, something inside him whispered: You're special.

And now, he'd have the chance to prove it.

He turned toward the Door of Challenge, where a panel opened in front of him, showing six options carved into floating stone:

🌀 Challenge Modes – First Floor

1. Easy

Face 10 common monsters (Normal Rank)

Rewards: Bronze items (common level), low XP.

2. Normal

Face 25 Normal Rank monsters

6. Abyss 🔥

Face 20 Shadow Barons, 9 Chaotic Counts, and 1 Marquis of Silence

Warning: Only beings with a chaotic-grade bloodline or higher survive longer than 10 seconds.

Danilo felt a chill run down his spine, but the silent shadow behind him was reassuring —

The Dark Monarch watched him, as if to say "trust yourself."

— "Let's show this world what true power looks like."

— "I choose... Abyss Mode."

The tower trembled, as if it had heard his choice.

Massive black gates began to open.

The sound of dragging chains filled the air.

He stepped forward, without hesitation.

The Abyss was waiting.
