National Fate: A Crossover Anime Marriage, Starting with the Great Tree King

He also feared that he would die inside the "Black Tower" and never see his wife and unborn child again.

Therefore, for the sake of stability and security, I chose the Hard difficulty level.

Ivan knew that the challengers could also attack the enemies in tower defense mode.

This is because it's that challenger from the Dragon Kingdom, a big shot who rarely shows up on the chat interface.

It's to let them know that there is a guide called "Challengers: Common Sense You Need to Know".

This allows them to gain more common sense, thus avoiding many hidden pitfalls.

After thanking the big boss, Ivan boarded the giant golden car and flew downwards.

After quickly placing the defensive towers, he picked up his double axes, lightning flashing across his body from time to time.

This is a minor ability he gained after awakening his bloodline.

After releasing the big black and big white creatures, we waited for the slime to arrive.

But how should I put it, this slow movement speed allowed Ivan to rush straight over.

He threw the axe in his hand, accompanied by a thunderous roar.

The slimes turned to ashes and then used lightning to pull the axe back into existence.

In this way, Ivan wouldn't have to worry about the hassle of picking up the axe after throwing it.

Furthermore, they gradually felt the various enhancements brought about by the awakening of their bloodline.

With each thunderous roar, the slime and the goblins behind it were instantly killed.

Even the next orc couldn't withstand the second axe blow.

This allowed Ivan to easily pass the level and reach the tenth level.

Get ready to fight a mini-boss.

Chapter 130 In the face of absolute power, everything is an illusion!

Looking at the Ghoul Gecko in front of him, who had already activated his half-Kakuja form.

To prevent any accidents, Ivan activated his talent directly.

Boom!

Accompanied by thunder that shook the heavens, a 10-meter-tall bear-man, crackling with lightning and covered in white fur, appeared.

"roar-!"

With a long howl, Ivan, now a bear-man, charged straight at the gecko.

Lightning was imbued into the axe, and his excellent physical attributes allowed him to easily dodge the gecko's attacks despite his massive size.

Then an axe struck him, and violent lightning instantly surged into the gecko's body, continuously damaging it.

This significantly reduces the ghouls' prized regenerative abilities and also inflicts a paralyzing effect.

Then we saw a gecko constantly getting stuck, and what's worse, his half-Kakuja form was instantly canceled.

Knowing full well that he should strike while the iron was hot, Ivan aimed directly for his head.

With a swift movement, the knife fell, and a head flew off.

The next countdown has more than 40 seconds left.

However, he has gained experience in dealing with ghouls, parasites, and even cockroaches.

He met her with a thunderous roar, then called upon his three companions to join him.

Even if these parasites and cockroaches are enemies we've never seen before, it doesn't matter. We'll just twist their brains off first and then see how things go.

And so, we arrived at the final wave with ease and comfort.

"Justice will be served—!"

Hearing their voices before seeing them made Ivan, who had transformed back into a bear-man, frown as he looked at Seryu and the large dog beside her not far away.

Although he hadn't finished watching the entire anime, his impression of the girl was already quite bad in the early episodes.

However, seeing the crazed Seryu running wildly towards him, Ivan instantly focused his attention.

Anyway, he just needs to be careful of this guy's final self-destruction, and it will be much easier to fight him.

So Ivan had his three companions engage in a tug-of-war while he took the lead.

By the way, Ivan has been playing this event for so long that he's forgotten it's a tower defense game...

But none of it is a big deal.

Facing this madman, Ivan showed no mercy whatsoever.

Her manic laughter made him feel physically uncomfortable.

Then, taking advantage of his size, he kicked the big dog next to Seryu away.

An axe fell on Seryu's longsword, which he had been blocking, and the weapons made contact for a moment.

The violent lightning bolts flowed straight into the girl's body through the longsword, instantly cooking her to a crisp.

After all, Seryu is still human. Even though she has undergone modifications, they are limited to her hands, not her whole body.

However, Seryu was already dead, and Ivan heard the system's voice in his ear.

Congratulations to Ivan, the challenger from the Russian Bear Country, for completing the event!

Annihilate all enemies and earn 500 points.

No enemies entered the protected area; 500 points awarded.

[Rewards will be calculated after the event ends, please wait...]

Hearing that the mission was complete, Ivan breathed a sigh of relief, then looked around and noticed the defensive tower behind him.

That reminded him that this was a tower defense activity.

Ivan then gave an awkward yet polite smile.

Oh well, the event is already over anyway.

……

—Olivia, the Free Nation Challenger

After sanctioning her fiancé, Olivia fell into a state of depression for several days.

This made her realize that the "Black Tower" was never a "kind" entity.

Although there are instances of "loving family members," such as the challenger from the Dragon Kingdom.

But more often than not, they face the calculations of their marriage partners.

Although these marriage partners cannot directly harm the challenger, they can choose to kill him indirectly.

The most classic example is that among the first batch of challengers, out of 233 countries and 233 challengers, 43 died in bed.

Of the second batch of challengers, 53 also died in bed.

Or, when clearing a monster room, facing a challenger surrounded by monsters, the marriage partner simply refuses to come to the rescue.

But one thing is undeniable: Olivia felt much better after learning that she wasn't an exception.

Furthermore, this also led to the evolution of her "feminist ideology".

Because in the Black Tower, every choice is a matter of life and death.

This time, I was lucky enough to obtain the bloodline card, which allowed me to turn the tables on Irving.

What if there's a next time? Will I be so lucky again?

Olivia then realized that relying on herself was better than relying on anyone else, as long as she became strong.

Why care about all these conspiracies and schemes?

In the face of absolute power, everything else is meaningless!

So for the second event, she resolutely chose the difficult level again.

Because of the hellish difficulty level, Olivia still lacked confidence.

In any case, she would only have the confidence to choose Hell level if her strength reached A level.

For now, let's just be patient and bear with it.

With that thought in mind, Olivia spread her bat wings and flew downwards.

At the start of the tower defense, I simply placed two defensive towers and then flew towards the slime.

Olivia took out the prepared blood from her backpack and waved her hand gently.

The blood then transformed into sharp, fine threads, instantly severing the slimes.

Using the sharp threads formed from her blood, Olivia easily reached the tenth wave.

Then the Ghoul Gecko reappeared for the revival match, and then... nothing more happened.

Because becoming a complete mess was his final outcome.
