Gongja has vanquished the Demon King of Autumn Rain-formerly known as Esther-marking his victory over the final boss of the twentieth floor, though his work isn't done yet. A simple question aimed at the tower grants Gongja a sudden audience with the Six Pillars of All Lives-a feat that not even the Sword Emperor has accomplished. Before he can dwell on the implications, Gongja finds himself faced with a seething horde calling for the death of Esther and anybody associated with her, no matter how innocent they may be! Defeating a monster is one thing, but can the King of Death successfully divert a tragedy that would lead to the end of an entire civilization?
