章 22: Chapter 22 - The Zone Between

After finishing off the rest of the hobgoblins and earning my rewards, my vision shifted, and a screen that I have never seen before appears

Moving to the Zone Between

I am quite shocked by the sudden screen, but once again, Gan appears in front of me. But before anything happens, I have a hunch, so I open my status to see something unusual.

[You two have done it quite quickly. Well, I should've expected that from your maxed-out stats]

"Yeah, the reason why we were staying on the lower floors for an extended period of time is because we just like to procrastinate."

"And we have a question, what did that Hobgoblin king use to move the earth surrounding it? That was unusual."

[Hmm, yes, to explain that, I have to talk about the origin of Goblin kinds. They're products of Mother Earth to create a species that is humanoid and close to nature. The goblin kinds are such things that they can breed very fast and have affinity for the earth, however, on the lower floors, their affinity is nowhere near enough to reach the level of manipulating the element. Floor 10, however, is different, this is where the influences of the Gods begin to seep in, and with that, The Hobgoblins, the second evolution of the goblin kind, begin to emerge as a King that can control the earth surrounding it. That ability to control an element is magic.]

I was thinking that the reason he was adding additional parts to answer my questions was because I stocked up on questions, but what is this?

"Why did you answer like that? I thought you would like to keep your answer short."

[ The Tower has made a special case for you two, as this is not the safe zone but the middle zone between the safe zone and the floor. Here you can ask any question and I will answer it. I cannot lie in this place, so ask away. I always wanted to have an excuse to answer more than you need, but since my tower obligation, I could only do it under specific conditions, but right here I am freed from that restriction, maybe for a while.]

"I see"

'This feels kind of weird' Leaving that aside, I continue to ask questions.

"What about humans? What affinities can we get?"

[Most gods have a hand on humanity, therefore, all humans have at least one affinity of any kind chosen at random. So theoretically one can have all the affinity if they are lucky enough, but that is most unlikely to happen, and much like the ranking of your stats, the strength or potency of your affinities also rely on that scale of ranking from F to A with A being the highest in normal case, however those are extremely rare, one in a million person have it kind of rare however the situation of you two aren't normal, both of you are Authority holder which make your affinity many times better than A, an Authority-rank affinity have the capability of controlling anything, regardless of origin of they have at least a part of your affinity, they will follow your will completely, that's the reason why you can absorb the unique abilities of others that are related to your element in order to strengthen it further]

"What about the normal kind of magic? What spells can I cast with the Space element?"

As Gan was about to open his mouth to say something, he suddenly stopped for a second before saying

[I cannot tell you anything related to this matter, The Tower told me to say that you have to discover it yourself.]

He say that, then looked in Eliza's direction.

[And before you ask, I cannot tell you either. With that said, The Tower has a gift for you two.]

""What?"" Both of my bodies said in unison that in front of me was a system message. It says

________________________

Hello, father, I was just a product of your fantasy that came to life and interacted with the true world where you were. This message cannot be too long or these Gods will notice, so I'll end this fast, I, The Battle Tower, will be your Patron God as per your wish before you were transported here. And remember one more thing, Jake and Jenna are the protagonist and heroine of the novel.
