With their departure scheduled for the following morning, Vahn gathered the members of Team Wolf Pack, sans Parakewl, within his room. As for the latter, he had promptly been ejected, not just because Vahn had said so, but because he had disregarded orders during the Submerged Fish Hunt. His actions had not only jeopardized the entire plan but, rather than …

Even if he had expected such an offer, as recruitment into the Ten Great Families was very common within the Tower, Vahn couldn’t help but look at Yuri like she was a mental patient. Then, with what could best be described as a ‘perfect deadpan’, he somberly asked, “Are you determined to test the limits of my patience? You would …

Not wanting to waste the efforts of Team Wolf Pack, Vahn allowed the Shinsu bubble containing Baam and Rachel to be swallowed by the Net Dolphins’ Queen. The only difference was that he decided to go along for a ride, largely out of concern but partially the result of morbid curiosity. He had never been ‘eaten’ before, not in the …

Vahn would normally feel empathetic whenever he saw someone crying. In Rachel’s case, however, he just continued to stare down at her even as her screams of agony turned into conflicted sobs. It was clear she was in a lot of pain, but, unlike a normal person, there was more anger and hatred in her aura than anything like sadness …

While Gandr was experiencing a unique trial all his own, Team Wolf Pack, at the direction of Khun, was on the verge of guaranteeing victory. Though they were drastically outnumbered by the Barnacle Goblins and Giant Marsh Worms, this quickly became an irrelevant factor when Striped Ground Pigs began to, literally, bore their way out of the giant worms.

This made it difficult to enter the State of Nothingness quickly, so, in response to Yuri’s sudden caress; he made eye contact with the increasingly annoyed woman, his hands continuing to …

Seeing the familiar fluffy ears, most of Anak’s tensions immediately faded away as she complained, “That man was my prey…” Smiling back at the pouting Princess, Gandr reached into the pocket of his parka before pulling out an acorn-like pendant and tossing it over as he explained, “This is just a puppet. Though my attacks should have caused substantial damage …

Unaware of the battle taking place beneath the surface, a relatively handsome man with short green hair and matching eyes could be seen exhaling an exasperated sigh as he caused yet another small cave in. Behind him, a rather childish-looking girl with blonde hair could be seen giggling next to a rather knightly-looking man with short brown hair. The former …

Despite having arrived relatively early in the morning, around 9 AM, the first seven hours of the Test revolved around simply gathering information. This caused a number of people to feel bored out of their minds, but, with Khun taking command, he made sure to keep everyone occupied and on high alert. The only exceptions to this rule were Vahn …

With the Test Director giving everyone an extra day to contemplate their participation, Vahn was beginning to think the only reason it took people so long to climb the Tower was the ‘mandated’ breaks. He had actually been looking forward to taking the Guardian Test then and there so it was a moderate disappointment to be told it wouldn’t take …
