'You had said that I should die peacefully before the start of the battle, right? I can use that line against you. But consider yourself lucky that I don't want to irk that old foggy anymore than I have to.' The butcher pondered this as he drew his daggers again. He looked at the angry Hilda as he closed in on the duo. She was looking at him with a lifetime's grudge. He just snorted his nose at that gaze. They were the ones who attacked him. He wouldn't care about their love stories when they were…-

"Ash! Are you okay?" Ashton fell to the ground on his knees as he gripped his neck with his weaponless left hand. He had propped his spear on the ground– using it as a support so that he wouldn't fall to the front or on his back. Hilda ran towards him and asked about his well being while she shot another barrage of corrosive water element arrows towards the retreating Ronny. The firesnakes that were following their caster as if they were the real deal stopped once they sensed the incoming…

The lightning element mana had found a new outlet to affect the spear guy now. The spear guy looked like his body had suddenly gotten naked. He felt like he had reverted to being a child again, feeling this cold as an unranked existence would. As a result of being electrocuted, the spear guy's reaction and thought process had gotten slower. Ronny wasn't someone to let go of this opportunity. He got behind the guy's back with a spin while twisting the dagger stuck at the guy's thigh. His second dagger…

Three distinct mana pulses had made their presence known, indicative of three E-Rankers executing the spells in their arsenals. The first E-Rank male that was leading the attack took out a long spear from his storage and pointed the tip of his weapon towards approaching Ronny. The E-Rank female with a male's body, who was also taller than the male ranker, took out a crossbow and aimed it at her enemy from over the shoulder of her teammate. Since the Sedated Perception was activated Ronny saw that the…

"Bah! You are no fun at all, Jer. Look what being an Adept has done to you. You lost your playful side. Even though you left me behind and steered ahead of me, I'm not envious. I don't want to become a hardass like you when I break into the D-Rank. *cough cough cough* Ptui!" Gerish huffed and coughed and spat on the ground. Rankers would usually not get colds or flu-- like that of unranked mortals. The fact that Gerish had a cough conveyed his condition as a ranker. If he wanted to survive, he had…

Renar couldn't keep his mind at ease when he heard Ronny's hint. He asked warily in a low voice as if his voice had the possibility of getting heard by some unknown stalker: "Sir Ronny, what do you mean by that? Could you please clarify? Are we going to get attacked by the Illuminati? But…." Ronny interrupted Renar before he could complete his statements: "But we signed a binding contract with them that ensured our safety, right? Yeah, I hate to break it to you, but that won't save us from…

"As I said Ronny, I and Julie would take our leaves now. You guys can decide to explore the Purgatory or choose to stay put until our departure arrives. Either way, I wish you good luck. Julie, we'll have to leave soon." Lady Zee declared her next set of plans sometime after the team got out of the dungeon. Since they were now out in the open where the cold had made its dominance known, everybody had worn their winter clothes back. The campfire was burning and the fragrance of grilled meat was in the…

Ronny and his teammates went to the third floor after collecting their individual as well as team based rewards. It didn't take long for the third floor's entrance to appear before them. The third floor pitted the team against packs of Crimson Fire Foxes. The packs would come at the group in a set pattern. The evolution of Crimson Fire Foxes was easy to distinguish. The number of tails they had were indicative of their ranks. The F-Rank Crimson Fire Fox would have one tail. The E-Rank fox would…

It was time for the second floor's rewards! "Didn't the rewards come too early? We had to fight two rounds of battle to clear the first floor. And the second floor is cleared with only one round?" Renar asked in confusion. Lady Zee cleared his doubts with her response: "It's not the number of rounds the dungeon considers but the level of difficulty you have to face as a team to clear the floors. Maybe you didn't have to exert as much effort when compared to the first floor, Renar. But Ronny and…

"My job is done here. I'm out." Ronny said this loudly to nobody in particular. But his teammates who had watched the last part of the battle got his message loud and clear. Ronny found a corner outside the battle ring to sit and start his recovery by practising his ranking technique. His teammates had a lot of questions but he made them realize with his actions that those could wait. Lady Zee shrugged her shoulders after she saw that Jules and others were staring at her for her decision. She…
