Ch. 61.2
Now there were only two obstacles left to conquer the Persona Gate.

One was the Dancing Clock Tower, and the other was the much-anticipated Masquerade Banquet.

She didn't care much about the Masquerade Banquet. Edna knew well what would happen there.

However, she worried about the Dancing Clock Tower.

As far as she remembered, a spider-like demon appeared there, with a Danger level of 4.

"Sir, do you remember what happened here?"

A sudden question from Edna.

Baek Yu-Seol, who was walking ahead, hesitated for a moment before shaking his head.

"No."

"I see..."

"But I know it's dangerous."

Well, as a Regressor, he couldn't remember every single event. But, it seemed like he still knew what was going on.

While Edna seemed satisfied with his response, Baek Yu-Seol pondered about this place.

"It's true that I don't know much about the story here."

For Baek Yu-Seol, this place was just a dungeon for item farming, and he didn't know the story in detail.

The strategy for the final boss was dancing, and Eisel and Hong Bi-Yeon danced quite well.

But, something happened.

Baek Yu-Seol vaguely remembered, but he kept skipping the event cutscenes by repeatedly pressing ESC, so he didn’t know the details.

It was not his intention.

When one person watched the cutscene, the other 15 players were forced to watch it too, which led to the chat being flooded with all kinds of curses like "Skip, skip!".

‘But I still wanted to see Hong Bi-Yeon dancing…’

Hong Bi-Yeon was a villainess, but her unique beauty captivated the hearts of many male players in the game.

Especially one gamer who broke their monitor every time Hong Bi-Yeon died in various branches. That gamer became famous in the community.

And perhaps, today's encounter didn't turn out well either.

He might not remember the story, but he knew what needed to be caught to obtain the "hidden reward."

[You've reached the Dancing Clock Tower.]

[If you go down the stairs here, you'll reach the ballroom.]

[The banquet seems to have just started, so hurry!]

Reading the guideline messages, Edna let out a short exclamation.

"Wow, it's high..."

To be honest, the Clock Tower didn't feel particularly significant. It just felt like an endlessly spiraling staircase leading down.

And at the top of that Clock Tower, where the students' feet would never reach, resided the "Great Blade Spider."

Edna swallowed dry saliva and took a deep breath.

"That thing is dangerous."

She studied the Great Blade Spider in detail as a precaution, but it would still be difficult to prevent damage.

‘It's better if I handle it alone.’

If Eisel could safely face the final boss without anyone dying, then they could all move forward.
