Castellana Cave, Italy.
The place originally boasted beautiful scenery and was famous as a tourist attraction, but today it looked somewhat different.
Gooooo-
The current Castellana Cave is a scorching hell filled with lava and radiating terrifying heat.
Surprisingly, this was a precursor to the beginning of Sardonyx’s raid. A type of field developed by a level 7 boss mob using mana.
In some raids, artifacts were used to prevent boss mobs from deploying the field, but such temporary measures did not work against Sardonyx.
The only way to prevent the development of such a large-scale field and return it to the original scenery is to kill the boss.
Roger, a level 7 hunter, was in charge and shouted loudly to everyone.
“I said it before, but I’ll say it again for the students. The location of the incarnation is at 1 o’clock. From there it goes clockwise.”
Likewise, Blue Apostle Aventino, a level 7 hunter, spoke to the raiding party in a benevolent voice.
“As you deal with the Avatar. Please gather again here, the center of the field. “Once all the Avatars are dealt with, Sardonyx will reign here.”
“You can’t let down your guard, but… … . “The real strategy begins then!”
Let Joo Himchan shout out loudly.
“… … I’ll tell you in advance, if you don’t catch Hwashin in time. It just becomes an obstacle. “The longer the Avatar attack lasts, the stronger the power of the resurrected Sardonyx becomes.”
Meilin warned the students that this was not practice.
“If our attack is delayed and fails. The damage will be borne by ordinary Italian citizens. All mentees, please do your best and work seriously. … … “Mistakes have irreversible consequences.”
With those words, Meilin started moving with Weilin in the direction they were assigned to.
Roger and Aventino are on the 12 o’clock field from the entrance.
Shin Yu-seong and Joo Him-chan at 2 o’clock.
Adela and Raina at 3 o’clock.
Mei Lin and Wei Lin at 7 o’clock.
Ultra and Colt at 9 o’clock.
Shoichi and Isshin at 11 o’clock.
Now the shape of the field looks similar to a lava area, but when you move to the Zen location where the incarnation appears, the story is different. There, a new field develops according to the nature of the incarnation.
The mentees have prepared hunter supplies according to the incarnation and the sacred site of the field.
So, in order to make full use of the supplies, it was important to move quickly before the Avatar appeared.
As the story ends, the hunters move at high speed.
On the other hand, Joo Him-chan spoke to Shin Yu-seong in a serious manner before moving.
“Student Shin Yu-seong. If you have any good opinions on the strategy, please let us know at any time!”
Most of the mentees were ordered to deal with the Avatar and return to the Association using the portal, but Shin Yu-seong and Adela, who passed the TOP record, were even eligible to participate in Sardonyx’s attack.
In other words, Shin Yu-seong and Adela have a somewhat equal relationship with active mentors.
Himchan Joo respected Shin Yuseong not as a mentee but as a colleague in strategy.
“yes. All right.”
Shin Yu-seong smiled slightly at Joo Him-chan’s appearance. Joo Himchan was a trustworthy person in many senses, as he could humbly acknowledge even a student as a colleague if he had the skills to do so.
‘If there’s anything wrong with it… … .’
A sensitive difference that only Shin Yu-seong, who has super senses, can feel. Shin Yu-seong had been feeling a strange sense of discomfort to the point that it bothered him from a while ago.
But so far it was just a feeling of alienation. It feels strange, but I’m not sure.
Shin Yu-seong looked at Rosa and Aventino walking away.
‘… … For now, I’ll have to focus on strategy.’
* * *
12 o’clock is the place where the fire symbol, Avatar, becomes Zen. Aventino and Rosa were walking along a curved lava path.
Ta-da-da-da!
Even while running at incredible speeds, the two run at a constant speed, perhaps because they have been partners for a long time.
Aventino asked Rosa, fluttering the hem of her bridal gown.
“I can’t believe two people passed this raid. this time. “Rookies have a lot of big names?”
“It’s a big deal that you show interest in your students. “Just a few days ago, I heard you didn’t like the idea of bringing students to raids?”
“I changed my mind. “But they are geniuses who passed the top record, right?”
Aventino slowed down and stopped in his tracks. He then took out the scroll he had prepared from his pocket and tore it up.
Saaaa!
What Aventino just used was a scroll that grants a water attribute shield around the wearer for a certain period of time.
Because of its rarity, it was a high-end hunter item worth hundreds of millions of dollars per piece.
Rosa looked at Aventino like that and giggled.
“Do you really want them? “I didn’t think I would become a bride.”
Aventino muttered quietly in response to Roger’s playful words.
“well… … . “You don’t know that.”
And then Aventino smiles with his usual kind expression. When Rosa saw that familiar yet foreign smile, she felt strange for no reason.

Which stage will take place in the tower is random based on rotation, but according to the stories of the hunters, it is the 10th floor. 20th floor 30th floor. 40th floor… … . The general opinion was that the difficulty of conquering the tower increases significantly every 10 floors.
“But no matter what, that’s the case.”
Blue hologram.
Kim Eun-ah looked shocked as she checked T.O.P.’s message.
[The 10th floor is the floor where party quests exist.]
[Quest Name: A World of Concentricity! Protect the Toy Kingdom!]
[Minimum number of participants: 6]
[Penalty: The age of all challengers is reduced to 7 years.]
“How can I complete the quest if the penalty is 10 years younger?”
Eunah Kim complained that she didn’t understand. Sumire agreed with her and nodded with a serious look on her face.
“surely… … This must be difficult! Plus, it seems like a very unusual penalty.”

On the other hand, Amy seemed to be in a good mood, perhaps because of her performance just now.
“Still, Eun-ya! Looking at the title, doesn’t it seem easy? Even the name Toy Kingdom is somewhat insignificant. “As there is a penalty, the difficulty level should be low, right?”
“hey. No matter how low the difficulty level is, if you go back 10 years. I’m 7 years old. “What do 7-year-olds do together?”
“but… … .”
Amy easily agrees.
Sumire laughed next to her as if she had an interesting idea.
“But it would be really cute if they were all 7 years old!”
‘Everyone turns 7 years old…’ … .’
Kim Eun-ah placed her finger on her chin and thought deeply. This is what the party members looked like when they were young. Somehow, an image seemed to come to mind just by thinking about it.
‘… … Yooseong feels like an idiot who likes to eat something. Sumire seems like a passive but good kid. ‘Is Amy enlightened?’
Kim Eun-ah definitely wanted to see the party members when they were younger. She especially wanted to see Shin Yoo-seong’s childhood with her own eyes.
‘It sure looks cute… … .’
In the end, Kim Eun-ah’s ears perked up.
This time, Amy took matters into her own hands.
“First of all, Eun-ya. Think about the 10th floor when the party leader returns. “Now let’s return to the academy!”
I can’t believe the word ‘Academy’ sounds so welcoming. It certainly looks like he had a hard time climbing the tower.
“I can’t believe I’m already back… … “We got to the 9th floor really quickly.”
As Sumire said, arriving at the 9th floor without stopping from the first challenge was a great skill. Kim Eun-ah nodded with a happy face.
“Heh, well… … .”
Shin Yu-seong’s goal that Kim Eun-ah heard was to conquer the 20th floor before the end of the first year. But it’s already the 10th floor. Kim Eun-ah exclaimed with a confident pose at the fact that she was halfway to her goal.
“Honestly, there is no party member like us!”
Kim Eun-ah shows off her formidable power not only in person-to-person battles but also against multiple people, and supports the club with nearly infinite amounts of money.
Sumire is a necromancer who controls the undead and familiar forces, and also specializes in preparing delicious dishes at the tower.
Plus Amy, who talks a lot.
Kim Eun-ah could have been proud of her outstanding qualifications.
“Gorum! Goram! “Thank you all for your hard work!”
Amy shouts with a refreshed face.
Kim Eun-ah smiled and opened the portal to return.
Saaaa!
A wave of portals shimmering in a beautiful blue light, as if welcoming the winners.
‘… … I hope Yoosung is doing well.’
Sumire smiled awkwardly and was worried about Shin Yusung.
‘Because I made you suffer like this. Just make Shin Yu-seong come!’
Kim Eun-ah strengthened her resolve by thinking about her schedule with Shin Yu-sung.
‘… … me. I’m going to have cheesecake when I get back!’
And even Amy makes a strange promise. The trio completed their adventure and safely returned to Gaon.
