Chapter 572: A Short Break

Inside the now brightly lit guardian's room on the fifth floor of the Horza Blaidde Mana Dungeon, black blood stained the surroundings. 

It splattered across the floor, ceiling, and muddy clay walls, telling tales of a valiant struggle that had just occurred.

Beside the slightly mutilated corpse of a once feared now fallen Abyssal Drake, five adventurers panted in exhaustion.

There were smiles on their faces, a proof of their glorious triumph in combat.

They took care of their end of the deal, they remembered.

This, however, also reminded them that the most important member of their party was still in the midst of a fierce battle with a monster that had once defeated one of their teammates in mere minutes.

Catching a glimpse of the purple world in his peripheral vision, Rai Hou turned around, worry consuming his heart.

They could afford to lose anyone else and still have a chance to proceed, but losing Shye was not an option.
