If you are someone who loves to imagine yourself in a World of Fantasy where the earth has experiencing the Apocalypse, The End of the World... Then this manhwa might catch your eyes.
A Stone which can take the user, back in time. Since, The Tower never lied, Everyone thought, Turning back time might solve their problems rather than dieing in the tower.
We have seen movies like Mad Max series and Resident evil which have the same background as the world is near it's end or just ended.
Well, I'm a big fan of such movies since, Everything will be believable when the world itself is going through the changes. What can be worse other than people turning into undead zombies and trying to eat you.
But, Guess what... There is something much worse than The End of the World. The Worst thing can happen is being alive in the world.
Just imagine, All the humans and people you knew are gone and dead... You are the only survivor in the whole barren world. You, the single human who has passed the test of this world and survived to be immortal in the end.
What can possibly be worst than this!!

| The World after the end |
The World after the Fall/End explores this genre with the combination of magic towers and the fantasy lands.
A world of darkness has ended up swallowing whole earth and the new beginnings are waiting to see the sun rise.
On a regular day, Humanity experienced the world's largest earthquake which shook the whole earth. Mysterious Towers began emerge from the grounds which where multiple times larger than any skyscrapers humans have ever made.
These Towers could be seen from miles away and were located in every country. With those towers came the tower monsters which began to flood the earth and destroy human creations and kill humans. But, As the tower rose up... Selected Humans got a chance to fight back these monsters. The chance to became A Tower Walker.
Those who accepted to became the Walker were granted various powers and strength to fight against these monsters and keep climbing the monsters.
At the last floor was supposed to be end of this chaos and humanity can return back to its normal life.
But, Until then... Those who left outside the tower were only meat for those monsters, Helpless.
No one could leave the tower to save them nor they could enter the tower.
They called the tower, The Tower of Nightmares.
The walkers have only one choice but to climb the tower until they reach the highest floor i.e Floor 100.
To save Humanity, Walkers gathered and started climbing the tower collectively. However, Fate was not their side. Many walkers would lost their lives in each floor. Climbing until the 100 floor was unimaginable with the remaining number of people. At the very moment, A Return Stone began to appear in the Tower.

As everyone was leaving using the return stone... The present never changed. Our protagonist, Jaewhan was losing hope for humanity...

| Jaehwan |
Just when he lost everything... A new friend came to his rescue... Kim Yoonhwan saved Jaewhan and made him believe that There is still hope for this world. Yoonhwan with his party were determined that they could climb the tower and save everyone.
The formed the Party- Carpe Diem

But, Things changed quickly as they kept going forward.
Time moved differently in tower as ni one seemed to age.
The Floors ahead of Floor 90 were so difficult that it would take 5-10 years to complete single floor.
The Boss monsters were totally on different levels for every floor they climbed.
At last, Only Yoonwhan and Jaewhan were the only walkers to remain on Floor 98.
The last hope of humanity. But, That hope was swallowed by darkness. Yoonhwan gets severely injured on Floor 99 and there was no way he could survive since there was no doctor to save him.
Watching Yoonhwan, Jaehwan can't even say a word. Yoonhwan fakes as using a return stone but knowing him, Jaehwan tells him to leave. Jaehwan can't help but let him go.
(This scene here really brokes my heart)
Alone with the tower residents.... Jaehwan was the last Tower Walker.
Still, Jaehwan never lost hope. He challenged the 99th Floor boss Ice Dragon, Velchisus.
Even after 10 years, Jaehwan has never made a scar on his enemy.
He gains the skills of Blacksmithing and learn to make swords. Even after getting strongest sword and reaching his level max stats.. He is unable to defeat the dragon.
But, One day... He sees a light which guides him to success.... The light which helped him in the last floor has shown his existance again... This time, The Moment Jaehwan uses his ultimate skill, He leaves the Ice Dragon with only his left eye.
Ultimately, defeating him.. he gains insight of the various things happened on the floor.
At last, It was the Last Floor. Jaehwan enters the Floor but The Floor was completely empty excepts screens which displayed every single battle he fought on each floor. The 100th floor was like a CCTV room which stored all the recording happened inside the tower.
A Black Human Creature with a Face of a beast appears before Jaehwan. He introduces himself as the Master of the Tower of Nightmares, Beastrain.
He explains that The Floors Jaehwan completed were just the tutorials for the real game and asks him, If he would like to turn back time and save everyone. But, Knowing how the Tower works, Jaehwan refuses to return back in time. The Beastrain amused by his decision makes fun of him and tries to persuade him but still he gets rejected. He tells the truth about the return stone as it was A Dream Demon's stone which traps the user into different dream dimension, Kinda like tsukoyomi.
He tells about him being a devil and harvesting new seeds of players for the "Real game".
We come to know about, The Great Almighty land and The Gods, the ones who want vessels and players to participate in these real games and those are selected by these tutorial games are sold to these gods.
Even after countless trials, Beastrain doesn't want to kill his chance to become a Higher devil and keeps fighting with Jaehwan.
Jaehwan searches the entire tower for clues and finds some interesting secrets. He is convinced that there was another level beyond Level 100.
Beastrain talks about the real games and it's players who are Monarchs and Gods above all. But, Jaehwan never really care about such things.
Using a mysterious power of the Ice Dragon and his skills as Walker, He pins down Beastrain and destroys the Tower System.
Just when the system begans to crumble and fall, Jaehwan sees himself on a different plane of Forest and new land. Thew were tress and animals which he never saw and more importantly people.
This was the new beginning but also the end of world Jaehwan lived in.
Will Jaehwan ever return to his past life?
Will he ever be able to save himself and live a regular life?
Where did he go?
How can he take down the Harvesters and The Almighty Gods?
What is the World after the end?
Countless and unimaginable mysteries are awaiting to be explored and discovered.
Never imagined a world would be this crazy after its fall. There is literally eveything unexpected and unknown in this story. Right from the creation of the towers and even after its fall... They are unresolved and unanswered.
