“Andel! Boris! Break their formation!” Kana roared.
Then she snapped her head toward the rear. “Roy, support them!”
The response was instant.
Andel and Boris surged forward, splitting off from the main line like twin spears hurled by the same hand.
Boris struck fir...

They continued venturing in the deeper part of the dungeon.
Then they saw the corridor bled into a vast ancient expanse, a broken plaza swallowed by time and shadow. Towering stone pillars lay collapsed like fallen giants, their fractured bodies scattered across the ground. Cracked stairway...

Two hours of waiting did not calm the dungeon.
It changed it.
The air thickened, growing heavy and suffocating, as if the stone itself had begun to breathe. Crimson veins pulsed through the walls and floor, glowing brighter than before, their rhythm slow and deliberate, like the heart...

A few minutes earlier.
Kier considered himself a veteran.
He had survived dungeons whose names alone carried weight, places spoken of in lowered voices among adventurers. Once, years ago, he had taken part in the raid of the infamous Fruit Dungeon, a place where even the simple traps ...

Suri kept munching on a thick chunk of roasted meat, grease glistening on her fingers as she took another enthusiastic bite.

The new week arrived wrapped in anticipation.
Classes were officially over. Lessons finished. Weapons cleaned and stored. Yet the academy grounds were more crowded than they had been all year. Students filled the stone courtyard not to train, not to study—but to wait.

One of the hidden perks of [Bolt Dagger Style] was not simply speed and flexibility.
Speed and flexibility merely the surface.

The atmosphere felt so heavy after Kana and Boris vanished.
Not silent—far from it. Near the auction house was still buzzing with confused voices, hurried footsteps, and shouted orders—but to Chelle, it all felt distant, muffled, as if she were standing underwater.
