Somewhere very far away...
The man in his national robe sat majestically on his throne. An
the individual was dressed in black, his entire body covered by a dark robe,
he sent a letter to the man.
After reading the letter, the man's face was plastered with an expression of annoyance.
"So he failed to be killed, and there were people helping him anyway" grumbled
the man with a huff. He took a deep breath, trying to ease
his anger.
"Search the information about this person, and we'll hire the services of that little boy
to accomplish his task," the man commands the individual who
delivering letters. In an instant, the individual disappeared like the wind.
"This guy is really interesting" said the man, shaking his head,
then carefully, he burned the letter. The letter slowly became
ash, replacing the image of an individual with white hair and red eyes
it is written in it.
In front of the entrance of the Abyssal Spire...
Lily with a burning spirit shouted, "Haru, Sera, let's hurry!" Him
running towards the entrance of the dungeon with a radiant face, full
enthusiasm is like the bright morning sun.
Sera, who was trying to chase after Lily, was slightly panting. "Don't rush, please,
Lily's."
While Haruki just smiled looking at the behavior of the two. Although he was very enthusiastic,
he couldn't forget his talk last night with the adventurers and
researcher. Inside this dungeon, its structure could change at any time, making
all maps are worthless.
As they approached the door of the dungeon, the familiar sound of calls they broke
reposeful. "Haruki!" Shouted a woman with brown hair
long strapped to the back, dressed in receptionist brown clothes. That
it was Elina, who was none other than a receptionist, running over
them.
"Hi, when did you get here?" Asked Elina in a friendly tone.
"We arrived yesterday" Haruki replied.
"What made you here?" Reply Haruki, curious.
Elina smiled, "I'm here because of my duty. After you left, I
ordered to serve here."
Haruki couldn't help his astonishment, "But the journey from the City of Astronia to here
long enough, isn't it?"
Elina nodded, "Right, but we have teleportation magic. That's that
let me arrive earlier than you."
Haruki, now more curious, pondered. "Using teleportation magic like that
interesting though. Can I too?"
Haruki checked "Shop" to see if there was a teleportation skill
be available. The teleportation ability may be expensive, but it is quite tempting.

'It seems there is, though a little expensive.' Haruki closed the hologram panel and walked along
Elina headed for the post near the entrance.
In a very high secluded place...
A mysterious figure wearing a black robe stared from a distant place.
"Target is visible, and there's someone according to the information,"
she whispered slowly, as if talking to herself. "I am ready to accept
order at any time."
The mysterious voice that came from within the silence gave a resolute command,
"Hurry to finish your task."
Without any sound, the black-robed figure immediately disappeared, without leaving
trail or wind.
Somewhere else...
Four of them approached a small building near the dungeon entrance.
"Welcome" greeted the receptionist.
amiable.
"Alright, here are three Return Stones. A total of 30,000 gold coins." Elina paid and
give it to Haruki, Lily, and Sera.
"Each of you can only have one, sorry, friends," said Elina, looking sad
because you can't buy more.
Lily was worried about Elina's financial condition. "Are you sure about this?
The price is pretty high."
Elina smiled cunningly. "It's okay, I know you're all so great.
You guys can definitely return that money in an instant."
Haruki smiled, feeling deceived by the seemingly good-natured Elina.
Having finished with the pleasantries and warnings of danger within the dungeon, Haruki, is,
Lily, and Sera entered the dungeon.
After entering the dungeon, they found themselves inside a room that was
pretty big. The sunset light radiated through the cracks in the walls
high and towering ceilings. Several other entrances are scattered across
around them, and several groups of adventurers and researchers looked busy
get ready to explore the dungeon.
Seraphina looked at one group of adventurers who looked confused by the dungeon map. Him
approach them and offer help.
"Hello, are you guys having a hard time?" Ask Sera to the adventurer group
those.
The leader of the group was a large-statured man with a large shield on his back.
"Yes, we've only first entered this dungeon to make money, but the map
we have from our friend who once entered does not seem to fit in
the current state," explain the leader of the group.
"Yes, that's how it is, the structure of this dungeon can change, and the kind of monsters that
the appearance also changes from time to time," explained Sera kindly.
"understand. So it is. Thank you, young lady. If it wasn't for your explanation, we
it will probably stick to this old map" the group's leader said
sincerely. Then, they continued their journey with more
be certain.
Inside this dungeon, the atmosphere was bustling from different groups of adventurers
noticeably. Some of them are planning a strategy, others are checking out
their equipment, and some seem to be on their way out after
the exploration.
"So, are you ready to go to the next floor?" Haruki asked
his colleagues.
"Ready!" sera and Lily replied with excitement.
The three of them continued upstairs, remaining in a state of alert despite them
still on the first floor. Here, the monsters were still weak, even
Haruki doesn't need to use his weapon yet. Just by taking a little
aura, those monsters had already collapsed from feeling the pressure
robust.
However, they remain vigilant. Even on the initial floor, there was still an area that they had not
exploration, and changes in the dungeon's structure could lead to traps
it was broken to become active again.
Their journey was quite smooth, especially due to the aura released by Haruki.
Several other adventurer groups were also seen fighting against
monsters, making them unnecessary to spend too much energy.
Finally, they arrived at the 10th floor, a safe zone where the dungeon structure would not
changed, and some buildings had been erected by adventurers as places
buying and selling.
On this floor, the atmosphere is different from the previous floor which is minimal lighting. On ceiling
on the 10th floor, there is a rock that can emit light, providing illumination
which is quite bright.
"Yay, we can finally get some rest" Lily said happily as they could
rest after a long journey.
"Yes, after a very long trip," Sera added. The three of them
decide to go to the rest area and book a room. Without
realizing, the black-robed figure was still watching them from a distance, waiting
opportunity to act.
