I Don't Need To Log Out-Chapter 232: Different Goals

The moment she confirmed, a hundred monsters teleported into the room.

The creatures seemed weak, but she had no way of knowing their exact levels.

Still, June didn't stand still.

Unlike Arlon, who could obliterate them all in a single sweeping attack, she was more methodical.

She quickly moved back, keeping her distance from the horde.

Her combat style was always about positioning—even against weak opponents, she refused to let herself be surrounded.

With a flick of her wrist, her first spell activated.

A sharp blast of ice spread outward, creating a jagged frost-covered zone in front of her.

The first wave of monsters froze mid-charge, their bodies turning brittle.

Without missing a beat, she followed up with her second spell—a rotating flame vortex that spiraled outward, shattering the frozen monsters instantly while consuming the rest in a blazing inferno.

Yet, some still remained.

Not hesitating, she lifted her staff one last time, sending sharp, needle-like shards of ice raining down onto the survivors.

It was over in ten seconds.

Not because she wasn't strong enough to one-shot them—but because her AOE range wasn't as large as Arlon's.

Also, she had been cautious, repositioning herself mid-fight instead of staying in one place.

Even if they were weak, she refused to let herself be swarmed.

As the last monster fell, a notification popped up.

[Challenger, you have cleared Level 1 of Floor 1.]

[Would you like to advance to the next floor?]

June hesitated.

Her first instinct was to immediately move forward.

But unlike Arlon, who was always reckless, she analyzed the situation carefully before making her decision.

There must be a reason the system specifies "Level 1" instead of just clearing the floor outright.

If I move on now, will I be missing something important?

After weighing the risks, she made her choice.

"No."

Immediately, a new notification appeared.

[Would you like to start Level 2?]

So that's how it works.

June nodded to herself.

She had no idea how far she could climb, but if this Tower was designed as a test, she needed to understand all of its mechanics first.

"Yes."

The moment June confirmed her choice, the second wave of monsters appeared.

This time, two hundred creatures filled the room, a mix of the same level 30–50 monsters as before.

But there was one new addition—a timer in the top right corner of her vision.

[Time Limit: 30 Minutes]

June immediately understood.

So, the challenge isn't just about survival—it's about efficiency.

A smirk played on her lips.

"Fine by me."

Without wasting a second, she lifted Infernal Spire, her fire and ice magic converging into a spell.

A frost-laced explosion erupted outward, freezing everything in a wide arc before a sweeping firestorm melted through the ice, shattering the monsters in an instant.

The weak ones died immediately.

But the ones further away—those not directly hit—rushed toward her.

June sidestepped, smoothly repositioning to avoid being cornered, and with a flick of her wrist, summoned jagged ice spikes from the ground.

Impaled.

Those that weren't frozen or burned were now pierced by the icy protrusions, their bodies going limp.

And just like that—Level 2 was over.

[Challenger, you have cleared Level 2 of Floor 1.]

[Would you like to advance to the next floor?]

June frowned slightly.

So far, the Tower is testing how fast challengers can clear each wave. But… why does it give the option to move to the next floor instead of forcing progression?

She hesitated once again.

Arlon would've just pushed forward. But June… June was different.

She wasn't here to test herself.

She wasn't here to complete some challenge.

She was here to level up.

Even if this floor didn't give her experience, understanding the mechanics of the Tower would help her maximize her gains later.

"No."

The third notification appeared.

[Would you like to start Level 3?]

June nodded. "Yes."

This time, three hundred monsters filled the room.

The timer had dropped to 15 minutes.

June exhaled, bracing herself.

She had no trouble dealing with large numbers, but she wasn't like Arlon—she couldn't just destroy everything in one move.

She had to be methodical.

So she did what she did best—controlled the battlefield.

The first thing she did was reduce mobility.

A wave of ice spread across the floor, covering nearly half of the arena, causing the rushing monsters to slip and lose their footing.

She wouldn't go with the same spells she used on the last two levels.

Now that there were more monsters, it would be easier for her to be surrounded.

Then—she launched her second spell.

A ring of fire erupted around her, setting the ground ablaze in a controlled perimeter.

The monsters caught in the fire screamed, their bodies burning as they struggled to move across the ice.

Controlled chaos.

June kept moving, her eyes darting across the battlefield, making sure she wasn't letting anything get too close.

As she moved, the ring of fire around her moved with her, not letting any of the monsters get close.

Twenty seconds passed.

The last few monsters still standing were the strongest ones.

But they're still not strong enough.

With one final sweeping motion, she conjured dozens of fireballs, launching them all at once.

The remaining enemies fell instantly.

And with that—Floor 1 was cleared.

[Challenger, you have cleared the highest level challenge on Floor 1. The achievement will be recorded.]

June's eyes narrowed.

Achievement recorded?

That meant this wasn't meaningless.

There was a reason to complete all levels instead of just moving forward.

Still, she had already made her decision.

Unlike Arlon, who was likely pushing every challenge to completion, June had no desire to clear every level of every floor.

Her priority was getting stronger in the shortest amount of time.

She wasn't going to waste time on meaningless fights when she could be climbing faster.

Of course, there was a reason behind her decision.

First of all, the monsters on these first floors wouldn't even give any experience points. So, there was no reason to clear all three levels.

She would definitely clear all three levels on the floors with monsters that would give experience points.

Then, the more important reason was that she still had to log out.

She didn't know if the Tower would recognize it as logging out or surrendering, but either way, she would probably be forcefully logged out.

She didn't know how that would work. For example, if she had to log out in the middle of a fight, then it would mean definite victory or defeat depending on the situation.

However, it still meant time lost since time will continue flowing.

And there was a worse part about logging out.

She still didn't know when she would log out. Would it be according to the Tower's time flow or Trion's?

It would most probably be Trion's time flow.

If that was the case, while she was here, she would stay logged in twice as much.

On the other hand, while she was logged out, she would lose twice as much time.

Of course, she would gain much more than she would lose. But still, she would fall far behind Arlon.

So, she wanted to climb fast and see if what Agema said was true and the time went slower on the higher floors.

That way, she would gain much more than she would lose.

Lastly, another reason for her decision was that she knew she wouldn't reach the top.

After their talk with Agema and Arlon, she knew that it was impossible to her to clear the Tower.

So, she decided to climb as fast as possible and spend more time on the floors with monsters around her level.

As she stood in the now-empty room with those thoughts, she glanced at the portal ahead.

Taking a deep breath, she stepped forward.

It was time to ascend the Tower.
