Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

Chapter 1159: Buying The Party Ticket



As we ate a giant breakfast feast, I finally moved to ask some serious questions to Frigga, some that were worrying me horrendously about the whole tower so far.

"Frigga, just tell me already, does Yggdrasil have a time dilation compared to the rest of the worlds of the tower?!" I asked. "Does time go faster?!"

"Hm?!" she muttered as she was eating something. "Why, yes, well, it used to be, right before I fell from heaven, it stopped because the balance was broken... But yes, there was this time dilation. I think Odin planned to use it to his advantage to gain power rapidly compared to the other worlds by spending thousands of years here while only a couple of years passed outside."

"S-So that means that... Well, do you know if Earth has time dilation?" I asked.

"Most likely, but at a different level, Earth is a weak world with a large lack of Mana," said Frigga. "Time inside, instead of going quick, goes slower compared to other worlds. Nonetheless, by now, I think most worlds have aligned themselves to have the same time flow. At least within the Tower's floors from Yggdrasil and below."

"Nice... That probably means my family could still be alive and hasn't aged and died..." I sighed. "W-Well, maybe they... died in other things but... at least the whole aging is out of the question!"

"Does this mean that my world is still fairly similar how I left it thousands of years ago?" Eustace gasped. "T-Then... perhaps I could go back too..."

"Of course!" I said. "You can come with us, Celes is coming anyways."

"Then I shall!" nodded Eustace.

"What about me, mama? Can I go too? I want to know your world too!" said Arachne, quite excited.

"Hmm, I don't know." I said. "Frigga, can she come?"

"It is hard to say, you did destroy the Sin of Sloth inhabiting her... But I think she might still be a Calamity, as a Boss, she wouldn't be allowed to leave," said Frigga. "But isn't she very strong? She could try bringing an Avatar with her instead."

"Avatar?" Arachne wondered. "W-What's that?!"

"I'll teach you how to make them later, dear," Frigga smiled with a motherly giggle. "It is a way to create a secondary body out of your divine powers! Very useful. You can safely travel beyond your world without risking your life. But it takes a lot of constant usage of divine power and mana to use, well, not like you're missing on those."

"Yeah! I'm strong!" Arachne nodded.

With that resolved and out of the way, we moved to another discussion, about how the Tower would work exactly, and what we must do.

"If we are descending, what should we do? I heard there were Trials," said Emeraldine. "Do we need to do them to descend?"

"Yeah, you must," Frigga nodded. "Take it as if you were climbing, as long as you don't clear those floors, you must do the corresponding Trials! Unfortunately, it might take longer than you thought to reach Floor 1."

"Dammit, I knew it... How many floors until Floor 1 though, in which floor are we right now?" I asked her.

"Here, I do have a map about the Tower, not every floor is an entire world though, sometimes they are special areas, trials, arenas, or towns specially for Players to gather and do special tests," she said, giving me a huge map. "Take a look, this is what all the worlds should be." "The worlds... Wait, so there's much less than I imagined!" I said. "But still a lot..."

Out of 100 Floors, there were at least 30? No, 40 that were worlds. Every 1 world, there was a special floor with trials and special tests of sorts. Some were easier than others. Sometimes there were several trials consecutively before another world appeared.

Because we were in Floor 50 of the Tower, Yggdrasil, we would have hard tests right off the bat and then as we descend, they'll become easier until reaching Earth.

Some worlds seemed more developed than others, some had complex names, probably with civilizations, others had names such as "Anthill" or "Labyrinthos" and although they weren't Trial Floor, as they were giant worlds of their own, they weren't as complex as Yggdrasil.

So far, we'll have to face at least twenty other worlds as we descend, and a bunch of Trial Worlds.

Yikes! Isn't this too much? Can't we get a teleportation thingy- Wait a second.

"We do have this though..." I said, showing Frigga a crown. "This item creates a portal to the world of Atlantis, which is in Floor 43! So we can skip those for now?"

"Does it help you also go back here?" she wondered.

"Yeah!" I nodded.

"Then you could perfectly skip all those floors if you wanted!" Frigga nodded. "However, are you sure you want to do this? It's not that it will take you years to climb or descend now, you're very strong. Any trial would be easy for you. You should do all floors; you'll gain considerable power! Don't worry, if you're worried about the Light Empire's event, last time I heard, my ex-husband was furious things were forcefully delayed for at least another half of a year, after everything that has happened so far."

"T-Then... we got enough time?" I wondered. "Maybe we should do it the traditional way then... But can we do the trials as a party? I hope there's no personal trials."

"The Trials are personal, but you can do them as a party too," she nodded. "For that you need

to register as a party using a Party Ticket, it's a rather expensive item but you can find it in Floor 48 I think."

"Hmmm..."

Wait, hey System, do you have that item in the new updated shop?

[Why, yes, of course I do.]

[Showcasing Tower Items...]

[Party Ticket (SSS Grade)] [Cost]: [100.000.000 System Points.]

Damn that's expensive!

But it seems to be totally worth it, if it can help us do the trials together, so the children wontNôv(el)B\\jnn

have to struggle.

"Alright! I think we'll take this ticket then!" I smiled.

Ding!
