After a few minutes of waiting, Ebonmare returned together with 4 other people and approached Boras' group.

The four people with him looked really different than the usual players seen around. It was as if their equipment was more focused on the looks rather than the benefits their equipment was supposed to have.

"So this are the people you were talking about? Not bad..." Molly, a hot and sexy lady said as she looked at Boras and the two adventurers with him. She was wearing fitted leather pants, bandage wrappings to cover her chest area, and a long and dark-colored leather coat. As for her facial features, she had short red hair and a mask covering her mouth.

"Is it really fine to let them join us?" Beacon, a middle aged guy with scruffy white hair and a rounded beard asked. This guy was wearing a white fitted robe with a large, golden cross on its center. He also wore two cloaks, a red and a black one, with the black one on top.

"Well, we can always use some cannon fodder you know." Jane, a charming lady with

a curvaceous body said while she had a wide grin on her face. She had long black hair that covered her face. The only thing visible to others was her mouth unless she ties up her hair. She was wearing a silky black gown that had white trims on it.

"Jane! Just stop it with those 'evil' suggestions of yours! Do you want karma to hit us again like the last time?" Polevar, young man who looked like a teenager said with a panicked look on his face. He had short black hair and a neat haircut. He has ring-like earrings on his right ear. As for his equipment, he was wearing the usual leather armor and a green cape. He also had two quivers; one on his back and one on his belt.

...

Seeing this group of people chatting amongst themselves, Boras did not know if he should say anything or not since he was the one asking them if he can join their group. After they all calmed down a bit after Ebonmare told them to quiet down...

"Well, I suppose you can join us. But I have to warn you guys, we will attempt the normal difficulty up to the epic difficulty. You guys sure you want to join us?" Ebonmare asked Boras.

"Wait... they want to crash the tower? Then..." Boras was a bit conflicted to make his decision since if this was the case, then how were they going to split the loot? But Boras decided to join Ebonmare's group since time was lacking and he cannot wait for other groups of people to clear the tower first.

...

After a few minutes, since the people attempting Arrowpeak Tower was still not out, Boras decided to slip away so he can ask Jay for some advice regarding the loot if the group he joined really wanted to attempt crashing Arrowpeak Tower.

"Oh. Just tell them that you only want one item from the loot if they do attempt to crash the tower. And in order to get that item, you have to last hit the boss. They do not even have to know about this item if you are careful."


When Jay said this and made it look simple enough, Boras was sweating a lot since he was not sure if he can even last hit the boss monster or not. After putting back his guild emblem in his storage ring, he went back to Ebonmare's group where everyone was waiting for him.

"Sorry for the delay." Boras said but he suddenly realized that the atmosphere around them was a bit weird. Everyone looked like they were giving offering their sympathies to someone. So Boras looked at the tower's entrance, and he saw a gory sight.

Around 20 players had one or two of their limbs missing. Some of them were even carrying corpses of their friends.

"Hey, what happened with you guys?" Ebonmare immediately walked up to these group of players.

"We were foolish. We let our pride get to us and attempted the Legendary difficulty of the tower. We thought it was just going to be the same with the Epic difficulty since we cleared it after some trial and errors. But this day is just terrible, so terrible. We arrived here earlier than everyone else because we wanted to do the legendary difficulty...*sigh" A guy who lost both of his arms said while tears flowed out from his face.

"Wait, you said there is a legendary difficulty on this tower? But the last time we checked, it was only from normal to the epic difficulty..." Ebonmare said while worrying about their plan about crashing the tower.

"I don't know. Some unknown event must have occurred and unlocked the legendary difficulty."

....

Ebonmare returned to the group after that and told them about what that poor guy told him. They were all shocked when they learned about this but decided to go on with what they've planned and clear the epic difficulty of the tower.

"Let's go. Since tower crashing is not an option anymore, we will skip the other difficulties and immediately proceed to the epic difficulty." Beacon said with a pained look on his face and led everyone inside the tower.

...

--- Arrowpeak Tower ---

The moment the group entered, Ebonmare immediately selected the epic difficulty of the tower. After that, they first discussed their battle strategy since Boras, Arthur, and Levi did not know how they usually do things.

"The three of you listen up carefully since we usually do not speak that much when we fight monsters." Ebonmare said this as he looked at the three seriously, not wanting them to mess up their battle plan.

"I am usually the one tanking all the damage from the monsters. But since you three joined us, the warrior will help me tank the damage, the summoner will make sure to keep our backs covered, and the gunner will stay in the center of our formation and try to kill as many of the monsters. Any questions?"

Boras, Arthur, and Levi all nodded their heads. After this talk, the group proceeded towards the second floor of the tower.

...

Arrowpeak tower, 2nd floor...

~Awoooo!!!

There were a hundred Alpha Gray Wolves in their berserk mode. The moment the group entered, everyone immediately went into their formation.

Ebonmare and Arthur went up to the front. Boras and Beacon were on the center. Polevar and Molly were at the sides. Levi and Jane were at the back.

Not even wasting a single minute, everyone started doing what they were supposed to do. Whenever the wolves attempted to attack them, Ebonmare and Arthur taunted them. When the wolves get tired of these two blocking their way and tried to circle around their group, Polevar and Molly finished them off.

After a few minutes of this repetitive process, they finally cleared the second floor and proceeded.

...

While Boras was having a somewhat easy time over at Arrowpeak Tower...

--- Glimmertree Sanctuary ---

This place was the one Bloody Harvest went to. It was not actually a dungeon or anything, but was just a small underground cave that was very spacious and had a perfect-dome shape.

On the center of the cave was the same treant from Glimmertree City, the one with the rainbow-colored leaves. But this one was three times larger than the one in Glimmertree City.

The reason Bloody Harvest was here was because Jay said that when someone offers a certain amount of their wealth to this treant, it will give them something called 'Glimmer Sap,' a consumable item that will fully heal and refresh someone. The Glimmer Sap can also be used on other things but Jay did not speak about it in detail since there were too many uses for it.

But right now, the treant was in a pitiful state. A gigantic black serpent with a spiked, bony crown on its head was fighting with the treant. And on top of the serpent was a demon, the same type of demon that Jay fought, a planar invader.

"Damn. What should I do now?" Bloody Harvest was at a loss and decided to contact Jay. But just as he was about to do so...

~Rip...

A ripping sound came close to him and saw that he was suddenly bound in black chains.

"What is this?! Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t!" Bloody Harvest cursed and saw that another demon appeared and approached him. But this demon, unlike the ones with the black-tentacle hair and brown skin, this demon had grayish skin and white tentacles as his hair. It even had a long moustache that was also made up of white tentacles.

"It's a bit rude spying on us you know? Didn't your mom teach you any manners?" The gray skinned demon said while he licked his lips.

'Vanish!'

Bloody Harvest did not even hesitate one bit and decided to flee as fast as he can. And while fleeing away from this place, he also requested immediate backup from everyone in the guild.

"Oh? The little boy wants to run? Riku, chase him. I'll deal with this annoying tree problem." After the gray-skinned demon said this, the gigantic black serpent and the demon riding it chased after Bloody Harvest through their unknown skill and left the gray-skinned demon to fight the treant.
