The news of a young man running rampant on the first floor not once but twice reached the nooks and cranny of the Tower.

Some called him a ’Rebel’ whereas some others called him a coward for rampaging on the first floor where only weak people who just entered the Tower reside.

And of course Shiva, he was as obvious to everything as he was always.

He couldn’t care less about someone talking behind his back.

At this movement, he was on his way towards the 10th floor, not for taking the challenge of the Tower but to unlock another seal on the Soul stone.

__________________________________

<Unlock the Seals>

You have obtained One of the Origin Stone, the Soul Stone. but due to the seals placed upon it by the remaining 11 Soul generals, most of its abilities are sealed. Complete all tests of all remaining 11 Soul Generals and unlock the seals present on the soul stone.

Objective - seals undone - 0/11

Reward - Soul stone will be bought to full power. (The soul stone would be officially bound to you)

_________________________________

It was a quest that he got at the time of defeating Ares.

The objective of the quests was not anything special since he was going to unseal all of them in the future anyway, but the content of the quest was a huge shock for him.

If what the system said is true then there would be eleven more individuals like Ares, and most likely stronger than him since they would be on higher floors.

and as soon as he entered the 10th floor a quest update appeared!

Ding!

<The quest ’Unlock the Seals’ is updated’>

_________________________________

It was an unexpected thing that happened. Shiva didn’t think tat he would be able to have a chance to unlock one of the 11 seals this early.

The Quest revealed the locations of the place where the Twelfth Soul general, Pisces resided.

like the one before it was a Dungeon too. but this time it was located deep under the sea of 10th floor’s world, grand line.

Further more the quest also displayed all the other location of all other remaining ten individuals and where there tests would take place to Shiva.

The remaining Eleven Soul generals except Ares, were present on each floor from 10th to 20th.

12th General Pisces in 10th floor.

11th General Aquarius on 11th floor.

10th General Capricorn on 12th floor

9th General Sagittarius on13th floor

8th General Scorpio on 14th floor and so on...

And to unlock the seals placed by them he had to clear the type of quest given by them.

If the requirement for the test is like a previous one, then it would be quite easy for him to win with his new SSS rank skill ’Soul Immunity’. More likely a cakewalk.

But if the requirements differed from one to another then it would become quite problematic,

Shiva was wondering about this while moving in shadows towards the place that the quest was leading him towards.

he was completely oblivious to the things that we’re currently happening in the Tower.

"why is my ear so itchy today?"

****

A bear-liken man was sitting on a big throne holding a glass of liquor in one hand and a piece of paper in the other hand which looked too small for his body.

"What is this bullsh*t!!"

He roared as he threw the glass of liquor at the face of a subordinate standing in front of him.

Beads of sweets appeared on the face of the subordinate standing there.

"What is going on!"

Bam!

The subordinate flinched as he saw the man hitting the throne with his hand.

The throne which seemed to be made of the best materials that were available cracked at the impact.

"Why is the fool that messed with us in that eunuch’s place?"

His mere words thundered creating huge air disturbance to arise.

Massive pressure was downed upon the subordinate as he was close to kneeling on the floor.

"I apologize for the mistake"

An indifferent soft voice resounded in the middle of the uproar as a single beautiful woman stepped out of thin air.

"It was my mistake that I underestimated him and made a blunder, so I will take responsibility for that"

She said and disappeared from the air not even waiting for his answer.

The man on the throne doesn’t seem to bother about it since he calmed down and went back to his usual behavior like nothing happened.

The paper that fell from his hands fluttered in the air as it made it possible to see what was written.

"Rise of a New Ranker!"

*****

The news of a crazy man completely destroying the headquarters of a bog guild, Vaikunta on the first floor reached quickly through the Tower.

Men who knew about his identity were in the minority as the majority was drawn to the rumors that spread.

"He was the God of death that walked onto the Headquarters with a bone dragon behind his back"

Some people who were too bored in the boring Tower viewed it as a piece of hot news to spread.

They mixed some spices to the already hot news making it a more enticing rumor.

One thing leads to another and it finally leads to the emergence of new news.

A news company that was firmly stood on the tower, gave the rumored story a life.

The more so than the unstated council the of Shiva, the dead’s ruler, bore his fangs towards two of the Top guild, led by Two myths and Absolutes of the Tower.

The article went this way.

"Shiva, the dead’s ruler, the undoubted and unofficial strongest of the colosseum was a successful climber that has a huge army of strong undead on his back. With his five main summons defending him from the front, he stood like a death god on the battlefield managing and monitoring the whole battlefield with the tip of his hands.

He is not only able to escape the relentless pursuit of the Bramhalok after the massacre he caused as soon as he started to climb the Tower, but He was also able to defeat William who was suspected of acquiring the Sixth soul stone. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

With a group of Shadow assassins at his command, his information network spread far and wide like a spider web.

He has also been rumored to have met with the number one subordinate of the Absolute one and a source of information tells that he had connections with the absolute one himself.

He was a mastermind that was capable of creating a massacre twice on the first floor and was abler to escape without a scratch on both times.

The crazy person was also mentioned to be seen fighting with weird guys in masks who caused up[roar in the colosseum.

His action until now could only be described as very absurd and not very wise but the result has proven them wrong as he was still alive to this day to tell the tale.

The crazy necromance is reported to be visited to Helen brook, the once known ’Miracle doctor’, and made some unscientific changes to his body.

He was also strong enough to fight against the Clone of one of the Absolutes which was rumored to be at least stronger than that of a ranker and emerge victoriously.

It was not much to say that he had won against the two of the Big guild by himself.

and this is how the article concluded,

"The Rise of a New Ranker" "
