Yul

**Yul** is a player that formerly climbed the Tower.

## Appearance

Yul is tender-looking young boy. He is quite short as befitting his age.

## Personality

Yul is a determined boy. Although he is prone to cowering when bullied (like any boy his age), he is able to stand up for himself when he gets pushed too far.

## Background

Yul dreamed of climbing the Tower and joined the same tutorial as Yeon-woo Cha. He began climbing when the tutorial began (one week before Yeon-woo began his tutorial) and joined a party of four lead by a swordsman named Kaen. Yul's party somehow managed to get through the traps in Section A but were stumped by the copper scarecrows in the boss room. Due to Yul's ability to see mana, initially, he proved to be useful as his party members managed to defeat a few scarecrows through his help, however, soon, the number of scarecrows grew beyond what Yul's party could handle. Left with no choice, his party members threw him towards a cluster of scarecrows to act as their scapegoat and escaped the boss room. Yul somehow managed to save his life by retreating back to the room's starting point but was unable to clear the room, alone.

## History

### **Volume 1**

Yul helped Yeon-woo by informing him of the scarecrows' weakness that lay in the cores located inside their bodies. Yeon-woo offered to take Yul to the safe zone of Section B in exchange for Yul teaching him how to feel and see mana. The latter instantly agreed and taught Yeon-woo a lot about mana while moving towards the exit.

After reaching the safe zone, Yul reluctantly parted ways with Yeon-woo. Just as he left, Yul's former teammates that abandoned him, approached him. He reproached them and told them to get lost. They apologized and wanted him to keep what they did to him a secret. Yul was so miffed that he didn't give them any response. Vexed, Kaen decided to kill Yul and get rid of his body so that he doesn't spill the beans about their dirty deeds. He was willing to do this because he and his team were on track to being recruited by Arangdan - a subsidiary of Cheonghwado - one of the eight top clans. However, Arangdan was very particular about its recruits and wanted people with a spotless record. Just as Kaen was about to draw his sword, Yeon-woo appeared and cut off his right arm. He then snapped his spine, crippling him and then proceeded to cripple the remaining three allies of Kaen. Yul heartily thanked Yeon-woo, who adviced the former to visit Freesia Garden, a place where he could grow his gift of being able to see mana to become an Enchanter.

### **Volume 2**

After the tutorial ended, Yul approached Yeon-woo and thanked him for saving his life and informing him about Freesia Garden. He then left the Tower after he promised to return one day, enter the tower and find Yeon-Woo.

### Volume 29

Ten years after the all players were expelled from the Obelisk, Yul ended up being one of the members of By The Table. Freesis was being held hostage as he was forced to comply, going by the name of Acacia.

### Volume 30

A small rebellion occurred within By The Table, that was unknown to those outside. Anastasia returned with Freesis after aiding Yeon-woo and his friends escape, executive members Rafflesia and Artichoke raided the Merchant Union. Although Anastasia managed to escape, Freesis was captured. To avoid leaking their actions to the rest of the By The Table members, they lied about Freesis' status and blackmailed Yul into their bidding for the past 10 years. During these ten years could be described as Hell for Yul.

Cha Yeon-woo did not forget Yul, among all those that contributed their faith to him, he considers Yul to be the first. When they met again as Yeon-woo was looking for Freesis, he answers Yul's faith. Among all his apostles, he considers him his First Believer. Even now, his faith towards Yeon-woo was unwavering among all those that worshipped him.
