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

Chapter 169: What If I Choose Both?



What James saw in front of him was the sculpted likeness of Michael and Lucifer in the portrait he had seen in the parlour. James could see that they both looked proud, and their gazes were almost identical to the way James felt when he listened to the heroes in the Greek mythology books his mother used to read to him on rare occasions.

Yet James found nothing he could do, there was no door to this room, nothing but the door he had entered through, and James scanned each room he had been in before with his own mana, looking for traces of mana throughout.

And yet the fact that he found nothing seemed to tell him that there was something he needed to do here.

That's why he looked around in confusion and then said, "Okay, does anyone know what I'm supposed to do here? I mean, considering that this catacomb is full of angels and demons, Michael, Lucifer or others must know."

Soon after this question, a message appeared in front of him:

[You have to choose one of us by touching the statue of either me or Michael. Then you can enter the prize room and choose your prizes under the guard's supervision].

James shook his head when he saw this message from Lucifer and then was surprised to learn that he had to choose a side.

"I have to choose a side. Then I don't want to choose any of you, you know I'm with the Chaos-Borns." James said, not knowing the effect these words had on all Chaos-Borns after they had learnt about Desmond.

[The side you choose will have more influence over the 'heaven and hell' you think of. So if you choose me, my control over hell and therefore my ability to harness the energy of hell will be enhanced, and I will be able to gift you an ability. If you choose Michael, he will enhance your ability to harness the energy of heaven and gift you an ability. You can see this as a kind of... sponsorship].

James read Lucifer's message again and then said, "Huh...It makes sense and it works in my favour, so that's why you started sending me messages the moment I entered the catacomb. Were the gifts part of the plan?" he asked.

After these words, another message appeared in front of him, this time from Ra:

[This catacomb has not been entered by many people throughout history, most catacombs are formed only once and do not disappear until the person inside dies or gets out. This catacomb was created by the tower specifically for Michael and Lucifer. To show their failures and successes, and those who enter here will receive nice gifts at the end and can help them by choosing Michael or Lucifer].

After reading Ra's message, James nodded his head in understanding, but he still had a few questions.

"I mean I do not need to choose, do I? I already have my guild, I have my family and such. What if I choose both of you? I can help both of you no? Perhaps I can be the lil-bro of you two with this who knows."

After James suddenly said these words, everyone paused for a few seconds. After just a few seconds, everyone who had been watching what had just happened had managed to break down in laughter, everyone was laughing so loud and so fast that it would not be wrong to say that it was a little annoying.

[It's possible, the reason why you can't do that is that when you choose someone, the energy goes out of your body. Aura holders can help Michael more because Michael is an aura user and Lucifer is the opposite, so usually people who come here choose according to their style. Which means you might be the only one who can choose between the two statues].

After this message from Nyx, James smiled and then said, "Well, see?", followed by, "So what am I supposed to do? Touch the statues?" he asked.

After this question, two system notifications popped up in front of him. One notification was on the right and the other on the left.

[Do you wish to support Archangel Michael?

YES/NO]

[Do you want to support the Fallen Angel Lucifer?

YES/NO]

When James read these system notifications, he raised his hands held them in a proper position and pressed yes on both panels at the same time.

After that, he felt a huge amount of energy drop out of his body, and a strange feeling came over him, as if he felt his brain shaking as if he felt the blood in the veins in his body disappearing.

After almost a minute of this strange sensation, James stumbled, landed on his buttocks and then closed his eyes as he felt dizzy, he tried to get rid of this sensation by breathing deeply, and then he saw two different pieces of light in front of his eyes, the fact that they could be seen even with his eyes closed told James that they were notification windows.

James opened his eyes to see two notification windows forming in front of him and realised that these were the abilities that Michael and Lucifer had bestowed.

Before James started to read the abilities, he pressed the underscore button just to the left of the cross to underscore the notifications and then said, "Michael and Lucifer, I hope what I tried to do worked."

With those words, two message windows popped up in front of him:

[We will repay you for this not only with abilities but also in the future, you can be sure of that.

[I swear that when you get above the 75th floor, whenever you need help, you won't need Lady Nyx or any Chaos-Born, I'll be there for you before Olympus or Asgard even takes action,] Lucifer said, and it was possible to understand how happy he was just from what he wrote.

Now all that was left was to see the gifted abilities and fulfil his purpose by choosing his rewards. That is, to kill the guard steal all the rewards and get out of here.
