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

Still, he wasn't sure how to get to what he needed to do.

He was breathing properly and trying to use his aura and magic at the lowest level so that he could reach the elemental core, yet he was still unable to see anything.

To say that James was at a dead end would certainly be an accurate answer.

He was constantly looking around, watching every blood cell coursing through his veins, seeing the details of the magic rings around him come to life and fade with every beat of his heart, and marvelling at their beauty.

Yet he could not find the elemental core.

It was possible that he could see his heartbeat speeding up, he could not understand what was happening, but his body seemed to be having some kind of reaction.

He tried to wake up and open his eyes but failed, he could not understand what was happening and he was still panicking despite his ability to calm himself.

His heart had reached an incredible rate of beating and was getting faster every second, it had reached such a serious and complex pattern that it was as if the colour of the aura in his veins was changing after each heartbeat.

After a short period, and through the pain, James saw something glowing, tiny and minuscule on the left side of his heart.

James instantly realised what it was, but then his eyes snapped open.

"JAMES! ARE YOU OKAY?!"

James looked up to see Ariel and Theseus, their worried expressions and the tears welling up in Ariel's eyes.

He realised his face was in heat, when he looked at the tears that were going down Ariel's face he saw his own face with a blood-bath.

His whole face was covered in blood, his face was covered in blood with a shade of black, James couldn't understand what was going on, he was just trying to meditate, where had all this blood come from?

"Even if you told me you were going to do something like this, it's too much!" Ariel suddenly said as she gave James a big hug and then James looked at Vlad standing behind Theseus.

"I was just... meditating," he said, that must be what he was doing, what could have gone wrong?

Ariel and Theseus hurried James to one of the rooms in the church and then forced him into bed.

The fact that Vlad was following them normally and looking solemnly at James at every turn told them that he had really messed something up, only a short time ago he had nearly died in the cauldron of poison and now one mistake had brought it all to a close.

When Ariel and Theseus had made the necessary arrangements and left the room with the priests and priestesses who had come to James' aid, James turned to his ancestor Vlad and asked:

"Sir, what exactly happened?"

Vlad, who hadn't taken his eyes off him for a second when James asked this question, shook his head and said, "You pushed yourself too hard. I don't mean in a spiritual or anything like that, you pushed yourself too hard, literally."

James still didn't seem to be able to wrap his mind around what was happening, he immediately looked deeper at Vlad and said, "I can't make up my mind, I was just meditating and looking for the core in my body, that's what I always do, I just wasn't looking for the core at that time."

Vlad seemed annoyed by the noise, he frowned and yelled at James for the first time since he had met him:

"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?!"

James felt his heart skip a beat at that shout, he was scared out of his mind.

"James, have you forgotten what I told you? Not one drop or water, but hundreds of thousands, millions of drops make up a lake, and if you make a lake directly, it will only cause you losses." Vlad added and continued speaking without stopping:

"It has been three days since you started meditating. As soon as I noticed the blood flowing from your nose, I called Nyx and she was able to send you help thanks to her son. Lucky for you, Poseidon's son Theseus was coming to visit you and that's why he and Ariel were able to help you."

The more these words entered James' mind, the more confused he became as to what was going on, had he been meditating for three days? What about the elemental core? Had he managed to get it?

"I didn't do anything dangerous, I was just looking for the elemental core, I swear!" he said, shaking his head, and at that moment he saw Vlad's expression.

It was blood-curdling, and the blood-curdling didn't seem to come from fear, but from worry and frustration.

"James, if your friends hadn't been nearby you would be dead today. You need to take baby steps, and you're trying to run fast enough to cross universes in a second like Hermes when you should be taking it slow. This is the last thing you need to do.

I told you to remove the core, I didn't tell you to force the core using every aura cell and every bit of mana in your entire body." Vlad added it didn't take him long to realise what those words meant.

"What you're saying is that I went a little overboard with using my aura and magical energy, my mana, and forced the core out when everything was depleted, causing my body to overload."

Vlad shook his head at James's words and this was a great shock to James, he looked around as if he suddenly thought of Nemesis and then said, "Forgive me Neme! I let you down, I swear I didn't mean to do it this time!"

No one blamed James, after all, before something like this happened the body would usually eject the user or player, so everyone and everything would be safe, but James had gone so far that even his body and the powers within it didn't want to deal with it.

James had killed himself but revived himself, which was stupid but also strange.
