1. The inner and outter parts of a floor are not connected physically to each others, and each floor's outter part is disconnected from each other. They are all linked to the middle area which has a special place and stairs regulars and rankers use to climb up/down the tower. In the first chapters, that's Yuri climbing down to the 1st floor using the middle area. In the original climbing through admins/guardian tests, it was just guardians teleporting the irregulars to the next floor, like Headon did to Baam.

2. We don't know (because we don't know of a hypothetical 136F, 134F is the last conquered floor and 135F is not being conquered by anyone, guardian said to be too hostile, could be a lie in-setting though).

3. I don't understand this one, did you misunderstand something?

4. Regulars/rankers use the middle area, there are special things like the hell train too. It seems those who never climbed the tower like Traveller have to fill papers and wait in order to be authorised on certain floors for special occasions like the workshop. We don't know if "travellers" who aren't regulars/rankers exist in the tower.

5. We don't know yet why guides can do it, but it isn't supposed to happen with just anyone. Maybe because guides need to...well...guide regulars and rankers, they have to be able to go to any floor without necessarily climbing to such floor (I mean, it makes sense right?).

6. No matter where you were born in the tower, Headon will always teleport you to the 2nd floor when he selects you. That's how the system works these days, though we don't know how that worked in the past yet.

7. There can be two solutions here: - Rachel has a special contract with Headon and he seems to cooperate with them for his own agenda. So FUG also keep their end of the deal. OR - Rachel is (or at least was) very important to Baam. And Baam the irregular didn't have a reason to climb the tower if he has Rachel back. So they made her the carrot to Baam's rabbit. Helping her with her climb (=see the stars or whatever) and getting Baam to keep climbing the tower (=to catch her). Though this one seems to have shifted over the years though, especially since the helltrain....

It's probably a mix of both for all we know. Also, Rachel doesn't need to be powerful to kill Zahard. She just needs her irregular properties. She could just stab him out of the blue. Maybe he's sleeping in a bed somewhere. I mean, not all assassins are fighters, you know (slayers in FUG are, but that's not the point I am trying to make).

8. We don't know. We don't know how that works either.

9. I wouldn't say he's with FUG straightly. He seems to have just agreed wth what FUG was doing on this floor overall. You have to keep in mind that it probably thought out of the box: Baam would have been killed by Ren if FUG didn't protect him (okay, Yuri was the one who fucked Ren over, but still it was part of a deeper scheme). The ruler of his floor is not from the ten families (Evankhell) and the Rulers and Administrator are probably powerless before the guardian's dictates.

10. - The thing that popped up on his shoulder in the workshop against Amigochaz and Leesoo was the fake thorn. The fake thorn was given to him in order to get used to it, because one day he would wield the real one (although the real one feels different, though it still probably helped him a lot to get used to the fake/replica otherwise they wouldn't have given him) It was also a power-up but not a big one, it covered his weakness in close combats when he couldn't use shinsoo, his forte.

- We don't know what the thorn really is. If I had to guess, I'd say it has to do with Enryu. People are making a false fact of the thorn being the guardian but pay it no heed right now, it's misinformation. If it does turn out to be the guardian then it's fine, but we don't really have any idea and proof, only speculation.

- We don't know if Baam did get billions of souls? We know White had absorbed as much but if the clone had given everything to Baam, wouldn't it make sense she would have vanished?

It isn't a waste of time, you've got a few good questions, though we can't answer them all yet.
