Chapter 109 Return To The Royal Dungeon
Training continued as usual the following day.
Each day, there would be a separate training session that only took up a few hours in the morning. Afterwards, the students would take a long break and go to the Grand Stage for their battle with Monsters.
That was the new arrangement for the effective growth of every student.
The training was for them to acclimate to their new Levels, which meant more advanced or prolonged use of their abilities.
And, the practical session was meant for the students to grind Levels.
Once they were done with everything, it would be around 1:00 PM, and so the students were free to spend the day as they wished.
Some spent it in the Town, exploring more in the market, or just taking strolls around.
Others chose to remain in their rooms or enjoy the grandeur of the Royal Capital.
Some spent it training and trying to better themselves.
There was one that spent her time in the Library.
However, out of all the twenty-eight students, one existed who didn't fit into any of these boxes.
He indeed left for town, but he didn't do so to hang around.
No... his goal was different.
"Hehehe... hehehehe... hahahahaha!!!"
A young man in a dark cloak and black mask that resembled a skull was standing at the entrance of a cave-like construction.
There was no one present, so the area was deserted.
"I'm finally back here..." His voice hummed as he gave a slight smirk underneath his mask.
Thanks to the suspicion that a dangerous monster was lurking around in the Royal Dungeon, the Royal Council ceased all mining activities within the Dungeon.
With Mining temporarily halted, processing and refining soon followed.
Before long, the once bustling Royal Dungeon grounds had become deserted—almost in an eerie manner.
'Looks like they also got rid of that barrier that surrounded the Refinery...'
Considering the fact that there was no work ongoing, it would be a waste to consistently use Mana Crystals.
No poisonous gas or loud noise was currently being leaked.
Everywhere was just dead silent and clear.
Since Rey had never seen the place like this before, it initially appeared strange.
He was used to it now, though.
'Well... let's venture in...'
Rey ventured into the darkness, his perception already dialed up to eleven. All his senses were heightened, and he was already prepared for any form of defense should the need call for it.
'Oof...' Rey felt a tinge of jitters visiting his body, but that didn't last long since his [Full Resistance] came into play.
The Ninth Floor felt like a land of eternal blizzards, and it was covered in Ice Fragments that stuck out walls like jagged blades.
The icicles hanging from the ceiling appeared to be more akin to long white spears than icicles, considering their length.
As they stood imposingly above Rey, he felt like they could fall on him at any moment.
As a result, ended up being a lot more vigilant than he would normally be.
'I wonder if I'll find any Monsters here...'
There was a good chance that Brutus and his team had killed all the Monsters here in their quest for the dangerous Monsterwho had invaded the upper Floors.
'But from what I saw, there doesn't seem to be any place that a Monster could have used to come to the Upper Floors...'
Maybe they had a [Phase] Skill, or something to that effect, but Rey honestly felt like that was 'reaching.'
Monsters preferred operating in their natural habitat, and other than the nomadic types, they would never leave their domains.
All Dungeon Monsters were evolutionarily predisposed to remain in their territory.
'Why would a Lower Floor Monster come to a Floor near the surface...?'
Still, the Royal Council had to take precautions, and they couldn't see any other alternative that best explained the situation.
'I just hope this investigation doesn't end up affecting my Leveling...'
Somehow, Rey doubted that would be the case.
'The entire goal of the investigation is to make the Floor safe enough for us to come in and Level Up. I don't think Brutus would kill Monsters meant for our purposes...'
He couldn't be sure until he saw for himself, though.
"GRUUUUUU!!"
As if reading his mind, a beast landed from the ceiling with a loud growl.
It had furry white skin, similar to the White Monkey Monsters, but this monster resembled an albino BigFoot more than anything else.
It had a savage expression on its face, which Rey considered to mean one thing.
"Wanna fight?"
