"Propagate your name? How do I do that?" Rocky asked, sounding confused as a system notification bar opened before him.


    For a moment Rocky felt confused, however, as he read the entire quest notification, a bead of sweat began rolling down his forehead.


    Apparently, he was being given a chain quest by the great god Shakuni that required him to speed run through the tower, going from Floor 21 all the way up to floor 40 in just about 20 weeks, clearing one floor every single week.


    In theory this wasn''t impossible, however, in practise it was nearly impossible as the skills of climbers did not progress so rapidly that they could speed-run through the tower bypleting a floor run every week.


    There was a reason behind why a climber took time to consolidate their gains after every floor raid, as speed-running through the tower was simply not possible.


    Rocky had still not gotten the opportunity to learn the swordsmanship rewards that he had received for clearing floor 20 and he estimated that it would take him a few months to a few years to properly master those sword styles.


    It was through improvements like these, where a climber improved their skills and gained practicalbat experience, that they slowly ascended through the tower, with an average climber taking a time of approximately 7 to 9 years to go from floor 21 to floor 40, however, God Shakuni expected him to do it in just 20 weeks.


    "My Lord… this task that you have given me… it''s doable right?" Rocky asked with a shaky voice, as he wasn''t sure if God Shakuni had just given him a death quest or not, since due to the forces of ''Vorithra Sylithen'' interfering with his advancement, the difficulty of his progression through the tower was going to be many times more difficultpared to others.


    "Indeed it''s difficult but very much possible. However, it will depend greatly on the gains that you obtain on Floor 26 and the willingness of your Champion''s party to support you.


    If it were me, I''d add that boy Kronos to your group, because I feel that he brings immense value to the team" Shakuni said in his statue form, as he seemed to struggle when he uttered these words, as if he wasn''t supposed to reveal this knowledge to Rocky but did anyways.


    In reality, he did suffer a significant bacsh for revealing this information to Rocky, with his real body on Floor92 taking severe injuries for the same, however, Shakuni did not care.


    He was willing to go to any lengths to see Rocky bing a True God and himself and Max reaching Floor101 and for that dream, he was ready to ept any bacsh.


    "Alright…. If that is your will then I ept the mission that you have given me.


    I''ll try my best to live up-to your expectations, Great God Shakuni, and I appreciate you helping me at your own expense.


    I-I will forever remember this favor." Rocky said as he sped his hands and bowed in genuine gratitude.


    In his darkest hour, when he saw no other option but to approach his sworn enemy for mercy, it was Shakuni who had helped him and hence Rocky swore to forever be loyal to him no matter the circumstance.

    "Once again…. Thank you for your favor Lord, I will never forget it…" Rocky said, bowing deeper as Shakuni nodded satisfactorily before departing from Earth.


    "I bless you all–" Shakuni said, before withdrawing his divine consciousness, as he left everyone present within the Church with a +50% all stat buff for theing week.


    "Oh my god I can''t believe it! Lord Shakuni blessed me! He blessed me!"


    "I can feel the lord''s strength coursing through my veins ….. this is the greatest day of my life–"


    "Thank you, thank you my boy for giving me the chance to witness the grandeur of God Shakuni, even if it was just for a fleeting moment.


    I have no more regrets in my life, I can now die in peace.


    I have no regrets" Pope Cole said, as he, just like all the other clergy, went into absolute meltdown once Shakuni left.


    Although Rocky did not feel as emotional about the great god''s departure as the others did, he did feel genuine gratitude towards Shakuni, as he was under the impression that Shakuni was making a big sacrifice for his sake, when it wasn''t really the case.


    Shakuni, was a very clever and selfish god who put his own interests first, however, being a master maniptor he was able to mask it behind the facade of kindness very well and Rocky had fallen straight into that trap.


    However, with his sister''s medicinal supplies for theing week secured and with him gaining a method to consistently earn a supply, Rocky finally had some rity regarding his immediate future as he understood exactly what he needed to do now, and only needed to n on how to execute it well.


    With Shakuni answering his prayers, he was no longer uncertain about his future or scared about what could be, as although he had not received an easy way out of this mess, he could at least see the light on the other end of the tunnel now, and had a finish line to work towards.


    ''20 weeks….. in 20 weeks time I will cure my sister''s condition permanently.


    I know it will be difficult, but I will make my way to floor40 and in 20 weeks time, I will return Riva to her usual vibrant self that does not need to rely on drugs to keep herself stable.


    It''s the least I can do for her as her brother…'' Rocky thought, as he resolved to save Riva at any cost necessary.
