Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

[I thought you had nothing to do with the gods?]

When Moros sent a message to Ariel with these words, she frowned and then said, "The only reason I'm doing this is because James, even if you can't get in, we can get out and get in, strangely, and I could leave here in an instant, but James wants me to protect this place, I'm sure of it."

Even if Ariel didn't realise it, with those words alone she had gained the favour of Nemesis and the other brothers, she wanted to protect James, whom she hadn't known for a very long time, just because he looked like her daughter. Her love and respect for James had grown to a gigantic level.

In Ariel's eyes, James was clumsy, and a little silly, but incredibly talented and well-meaning. He had to be protected, he was too innocent for this tower.

[As you say, we think you can hold it until James arrives, good luck Ariel.]

With that message Ariel closed the window and then waited, they would have to wait until the Tear of the Goddess was ready.

-----

Exactly 35 minutes had passed, and the Tear of the Goddess was waiting in a ready position, this sacred object was almost the size of a human skull and perhaps as thick as a human arm.

The sacred object glowed with a gigantic brightness and the sacred energy within it made those around it breathe easier.

"ARE YOU READY?" Ariel suddenly shouted and 8 windows opened in front of her telling [Yes ma'am!].

The first camp began to glow with a piece of the barrier that would be opened by Datura and Aether. The Olympian sorcerer in the camp was filled with insane holy energy, a sudden energy that began to move towards the mountain and after a while, it stopped and rose to the sky like an abstract window.

Then the energy in the Tear of the Goddess began to dissipate. 7 gigantic rays travelled around the mountain to the other camps, and then each camp began to glow with a part of the barrier. After a short period, the whole mountain and its surroundings were filled with the energy of blessing and the sacred energy in its context.

There was energy in the Tear of the Goddess that could make at least 15 more of this barrier.

With the gathering of this energy, the barrier was formed and a deep yet muffled sound rose from the mountain.

"OUGHOUAA!!!"

The sound was at such a high decibel that even Ariel, Theseus, Perseus, Datura and Aether had to cover their ears even though their ears were protected.

Immediately after the deep, muffled voice stopped, a dark, shadowy silhouette rose towards the barrier and began to strike it, forming a huge figure.

The barrier glowed with each blow and the figure's voice became even more vivid:

"NYX!!! BRING ME NYX!"

As the muffled voice said these words, Ariel glared at the figure and then said angrily, "What the hell kind of a bastard like you would use that name!"

Ariel hated himself for her weakness and for not having the ability to protect her brain, after all, if everyone, not just her, could protect their minds, everything would be easier.

Everyone was doomed to divine power.

[Don't be nervous young Ariel, James and Nemesis are on their way, we can start the attack.]

Ariel read the message window that had suddenly opened in front of her and was glad that James had arrived, her whole body trembled when she saw the name Nemesis, she was so happy to meet the only goddess that interested her.

After a short wait, Nemesis and James entered the camp.

Nemesis was carrying James on her back like a baby, James suddenly got off Nemesis' back and tried to hide his embarrassment by saying "Nemesis is faster than me, there is nothing to do".

The others burst into laughter as if they hadn't expected it, and with that, Ariel approached James and said, "I did my best."

Nemesis and James smiled at these words and then reassured Ariel by saying, "We know, don't worry, you did a good job."

With that, James and Nemesis started heading towards the other side of the camp, the path towards the mountain.

"You stay here, we don't know what will happen when we enter the barrier, we don't know what the other kingdoms will do even if they can stop the Fallen God, don't forget to watch your back." James suddenly said that everyone knew what he said was right, they needed to protect themselves.

Nemesis stroked James' cheek and then said, "I can take you halfway up the mountain, we're talking almost 7,000 metres, even if there are paths wide enough for you to climb, it's still a huge distance."

"Don't worry about me, even if you are still stronger than me here, you are still weak compared to your true strength, please don't let any harm come to you," James said and kissed Nemesis.

Even though the people around could not understand what was going on between the two, they still chose not to question it.

With that, the duo of James and Nemesis were on the move. They had already started moving along the path of the mountain and had managed to reach the entrance to the mountain.

The barrier was right in front of them. James knew his heart was pounding with fear, Nyx had said that whatever was inside was far more powerful than anything they had fought on the 9th floor.

James, who hadn't felt pure fear in a long time, could now clearly feel his entire body being flooded with adrenaline from fear.

Shaking his head left and right, he took a step forward but was suddenly stopped by Nemesis holding his hand.

"Are you alright Neme?" James asked, but Nemesis' face was filled with fear.

"To tell you the truth, I'm scared, even if I didn't want to show it in the camp just now, I'm very scared. I am scared to lose you." Nemesis said and James smiled and said, "Me too, but we'll support each other, you'll get halfway up the mountain and then leave the barrier, protect yourself and help me move forward."

When he saw that Nemesis' fear was not going to subside, he moved closer and gave her the most passionate kiss he could give her and then said, "Hey...We're going to succeed, we're not going to let anyone down, we're going to live."

He had no idea how much those words meant to Nemesis.
