Chapter 1: Floor 96
In the year 2026, the towers appeared from nowhere and from then on, it spawned monsters and beasts. The only way to conquer them was by clearing all the 100 floors.
But then it became not impossible as humans have gained an awakening. They all have powers based on their awakened job class.
The front line heroes or so they were called, were the first party to challenge the tower and it was Ren’s Party.
Ren was deemed as a classless trash in the past but reached heights of dungeon floors that were unreachable by normal humans.
He was a porter at first and was betrayed by his team and was left to die.... That left an unpleasant taste on him but he managed to survive. Even with him brutally wounded, he survived the monster parade.
Then he met the Heroes’ Party and he joined them as their porter. He gained a lot of essence and then decided to finish these trials with his friends. He was a newbie at first until he adapted and survived. He was left with no choice and was forced to complete the trials just to get out.
[Floor 96]
They arrived in this floor and saw that it was teeming with collosal titans and flying monstrosities. The ground vibrated with each step of the gargantuan monsters. They saw trolls as tall as 4 storey buildings that rumbled and above them, were winged one eyed whales that flew above the skies. The mountains looked like their chairs and they just sat at it. Some were as tall as the hills and some even greater.
They saw that these absurd sizes were normal in this floor. As they saw the whales roar and the very air vibrated in their sheer voices. Even their spines felt the sound and then they could only grit their teeth upon the vibrations.
Ren stood on the ledge as he observed the demonic entities on the way. His black hair waved as the wind blew. His almond eyes showed fierceness and resolute gaze. His hands and face showed scars coming from near death battles from before.
The enemies all saw them and turned towards their direction. And so, he has to kill them all before the boss appears.
"Sigh, a huge work must be done. But whatever, their stat crystals should be worth the kill." Ren muttered.
The seven heroes that came to conquer this floor were all lively. Bearing armors and weapons that were all legendary, they were the finest of the first generation or so they were called the front line Heroes who were the first awakeneds to enter the tower.
Their leader ushered them to stay close and not to let their guard down. A hint of caution was being upheld. They could not be careless this time around.
"Hey, is this the Floor 96? It was vast and was like a world!" Shouted Hella.
"Hey, let’s attack the boss! I want to go home immediately." Kevin said.
"Eh? Why? We should enjoy the scenery." Kendrick said to him.
"The scenery? It was a bunch of mountains and demons. Nothing much." Ren said to them.
Badump!
A wave of killing instinct was felt by their party. Their soul screamed for warning that an evil entity has just woken up. Their leader immediately took action.
"Everyone! You all know what to do!" He shouted.
It was then, they all went into battle formation. There was an aura that happened to erupt and they all felt it.
"Everyone! Battle formation!" Said their Leader Axel.
Immediately, they all heeded.
The monsters on the ground and in the air all went to attack them. They were sensed by them in such a short time.
Their swordsman Leader Axel grabbed his sword and then drew it. Then he immediately went to dash towards them.
Ren on the contrary, leaped to the sky with a boom and they could all only sigh with his raw strength.
It was then, he punched the monster in the air and then a booming sound was made. Reverberating on the process.
Then after that, blood and guts rained from above. Making them cover their heads.
He was strong enough to make the Demon Lords of Hell die instantly with just a punch. He has superhuman strength that he absorbed from the monster essences and could one punch mobs into bits.
"Man, Ren was always like this. Even though he was just an unawakened." Said their leader.
"Yeah, he was the strongest! The strongest Porter of all time!" Ella commented.
The Demon on the ground immediately dashed and they were all attacked from all sides. They immediately went to clash with the enemy. Their tank made a rousing cry and then used taunts.
Their mage made a ray of fire towards the enemies and it killed them instantly. They all were in their fullest capacity as of now.
Axel slashed his sword and it brought out a ray of light that was able to cleave the enemies. They were all killing them nonstop and then a rumble was heard from the ground.
They all saw that the ground exploded and rocks and bits of rocks were sent flying. Ren patrolled to see what was happening and then saw that it was the boss of this floor.
It was huge and had the head of a centipede. It breathes hot air and then roars at them. The team was alarmed and they all went to prepare for another battle.
Ren ran fast and went back to his team and leaped to the air. The enemy boss saw that it was them who was making trouble in his turf and so it went to attack them.
Ren felt dread run down his spine. He immediately dashed towards them. "Damn it, I hope I am not too late!"
They all saw that it breathed a ray of fire and then they were struck with its breath.
[Force Field Barrier]
The barrier stopped the breathe of the centipede. "Hold it!" Shouted their leader.
"I, I can’t for long!" Replied their Mage.
’Hold it! Please, everyone be safe!’ Ren muttered while he hurried.
"Kuk!" Their Mage puked blood and the passed out. "Loran!" Their Leader grabbed him and then he said, "It’s fine, have a rest......." the barrier cracked and then they all closed their eyes. Flashbacks of memories flooded their minds and tears welled up before they were all engulfed by the breath. Time slowed down a bit and then all saw them smiling at him.
Inside the telepathic message from them, he heard their last message for him. "Ren.... live!" They all shouted.
Ren, heard them and then his heart sank. He felt the world to turn upside down. He gritted his teeth as he roared while dashing. "Wait! I still need to talk to you all! I haven’t, even thanked you all properly."
Boom!
Then they all perished as they were engulfed by fire.
Ren felt dread and horror as he shouted. "Everyone! No!!!" Ren couldn’t believe it and all that was left were their ashes.
Ren gripped his fist and then gritted his teeth. He dashed and then with a speed unmatched by any human, he leaped in the air and then punched the centipede into bits.
Boom! Babababang!
"Orah!!!!!" Ren shouted. "You, Bastard! When I say wait, wait!!!!"
The head was busted and its body was thrashing all around. Even so, he punched more and its body exploded to the sheer force of the air.
Ren shouted with all he got and then went to kill all monsters with one punch. He leaped from the air and then smashed the monsters to bits as he landed. They were all in chaos as the entity was too strong for them.
Ren then cleared the floor but it was with a cost. He lost his friends and saw their deaths.
With just one attack from the boss, it was all over. He immediately went to make a mound to honor their deaths and then put the things left on the ground. Their burnt clothes, weapons and broken armors. He was the only one left to kill the boss of the next floor.
With that, he honored their deaths and moved on. He carried their memories with him and he felt seriously pissed this time.
He collected the stat crystals from the dead monsters and ate monster meat by the bonfire.
He grabbed a huge pouch stat crystal and then absorbed them. With that, he grew his stats. He was able to break the limiter of the human body so the 1000 cap max was broken and was still going higher.
"Status!"

Dexterity: 1130 > 1270
Vitality: 1290 > 1350

....
He immediately went to the next floors to eliminate the boss and so, he promised to finish this floor for his friends. Even alone, he swore to finish these damn trials.
He saw the pillar of light where he would ascend to the next floor then he ascended to the floor 97 and then rested.
[Floor 97] fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
It was a forestry area but the scent of death was wafting. Bones and death were everywhere. Making him cover his nose.
He immediately made a bonfire and grilled monster meat that he has in his inventory. Then when he was eating, he heard sounds of rumbling. An eye glowed in crimson red and he immediately knew the enemy. They were Cyclops and they were all 12 of them. They eat their enemies alive and they enjoyed toying with it before they eat the broken body. They have giant bodies and have huge strength.
All entities were terrifying and monstrous .... and so was he..... He was laughed at by his enemies as a lone human was seen here. Many have died in the hands and so, Ren immediately dashed and threw rocks on their eyes. Ren was in a foul mood and then he went trashing them all. They became blinded and then Ren grabbed them and snapped their bones limb by limb before he killed them all.
