Vol.3 Ch.122: 52F - The Offer (1)

52F - The Offer (1): This is the hundred and twenty-second chapter of Volume 3 of Tower of God. It follows Traumerei as he talks with Baam and eventually offers Baam a position within the Lo Po Bia Family, which will be solidified through a political marriage. Meanwhile, Yu Han Sung manage to sneak aboard Lo Po Bia's Warp Fleet with the help of Doom, but he is spotted by Meyer and Candidi, who go to pursue him.

Synopsis
Lo Po Bia Traumerei stand up before Twenty-Fifth Baam and notes that Baam is the new guy to the tower, one from the outside, and the one that Traumerei has been wanting to meet. Ha Jinsung, who suddenly is alone while facing Lo Po Bia Pudidy, Lo Po Bia Holan, and Dobo, charges after Baam unaware of who took him, but Pudidy tries to block his path to no avail, as Jinsung just swats him to the side before continuing to charge ahead. Traumerei starts to talk to Baam in a familiar tone, saying that he had heard lots about Baam, that he did not expect Baam to survive the Battle of The Nest since it was filled with High Rankers, and that Baam has proven himself worthy of meeting Traumerei. Baam is just confused so he asks who Traumerei is, and Traumerei answers that he is the family head of the Lo Po Bia Family called Traumerei, which surprises Baam and he asks if its really true, to which Traumerei responds that he is indeed one of the Great Family Heads. Inside Baam, Leviathan reacts to the presence of Traumerei, saying that Traumerei is the one that trapped him inside the Suspendium and forced him to eat all his awful memories, Leviathan tells Baam to kill Traumerei, "Kill him for me... right now!". However, Baam says that he cannot kill Traumerei, since senses that if he even shows slight hostility in front of Traumerei he would die within seconds of doing so. Traumerei continues to talk, welcoming Baam into the tower and saying that if Baam survived the battle then there was something Traumerei wanted to tell Baam.

Meanwhile, Baylord Doom with the help of Yu Han Sung tries to sneak onto the Warp Fleet, while everyone is distracted by Traumerei and Baam, but Doom is stopped by Lo Po Bia Perseus's Rein of Seahorse while Yu Han Sung manages to sneak past and run towards the control room. However, Lo Po Bia Meyer notices that the door to the warp fleet opened for a couple seconds, so he thinks an enemy has managed to board and he gets help from Lo Po Bia Candidi to investigate, which worries Baylord Yama. In the midst of this chaos Traumerei raises his voice since he has had enough, so he activates his skill Shinwonryu - All Creatures, which produces several long green Shinheuh that engulf the entirety of The Nest and gives everyone a sense of suffocating pressure and fear for their life. This is felt by Lo Po Bia Yasratcha, Yama, Perseus, Khun Aguero Agnis, Rak Wraithraiser, and Aria among others, but not Baam. Traumerei starts talking again, telling Baam that him and the other family heads have been discussing what to do with Baam, some want to kill him, some want to protect him, and some want to leave you alone like any other Regular. Baam's presence has caused a rift between the families and Zahard took no direct action except giving orders to Zahard's Army, which Traumerei reasons is due to Zahard not wanting the families to be divided. However, some of the families wanted conflict, like the Po Bidau Family, so that became an entirely different problem, which even other family heads got involved in. Zahard tried to kill Baam by giving his three orders, but it Baam survived it, so in Traumerei's mind Zahard has no strong opinion on the matter, which means that Traumerei will take all the family head's opinion into consideration and therefore agreed to summoning Baam to the Nest. Traumerei agreed with those that thought it would not matter if Baam died there, but if Baam survived Traumerei also agreed that it would not hurt to spare Baam, since if Baam survived he would worthy of serving Traumerei.

Baam is confused at why Traumerei wants him serve, which Traumerei responds that if he decides that Baam is useful, Baam will serve him, but if Baam is not useful, then Traumerei will kill him, since that is how Traumerei operate. Traumerei continue to monologue, telling Baam that the conflict is not likely to end so Baam's role will actually be quite important, so it is completely natural for Baam to serve him. However, Traumerei do not think that Baam, as a person from the outside, should be treated like an animal, so he instead intends to approach Baam as an equal human being and ask him if he would like to join the Lo Po Bia Family. Baam, now completely baffled ask what Traumerei means, which Traumerei explains that he wants Baam to become a member of his family, something that they will make official through a marriage, going as far as offering the Zahard's Princesses Lo Po Bia Lilial Zahard and Lo Po Bia Shilial Zahard as brides. Despite Baam's confusion, Traumerei stands firm on his offer, which is for Baam to marry one of his daughters and join the Lo Po Bia family, making Baam one of Traumerei's prized possessions.
