They didn't receive much news about the Ara race during the following days.
However, Shane didn't worry much about that.
The Hidden Paradise had been absorbing the surrounding mana throughout the days so far.
Owing to that, he was able to exert the mana purification technique, increasing his mana purity by a small margin.
Once the timer of 30 days had finally run out, the fluare tower dungeon notified them about the final result of the third floor.
Just a moment later, he and Ilya disappeared from the Karn king's castle without leaving any traces of their existence behind.
[Third floor survived and successfully accomplished. Congratulations.

++City has been protected extraordinarily well, short and long term achievements= City wall has been rebuilt and enhanced. 15442 mana-sphere crossbows were used and given to Deux's defenders.
+City has been turned into a fortress due to its unique position as the first city facing two borders; Moat and multiple defensive mechanisms were constructed.

Completion rate: [93%]
Special reward=[Limitation crystal]]
Shane couldn't believe his eyes. Instead of receiving something like weapons, accessories, or other advantages from other dungeon challengers, he had received a limitation crystal.
He had used his utmost efforts to accomplish the third floor's task with the final rewards being two limitation crystals.
It was simply too great!
Shane couldn't believe his luck!
Having one limitation crystal was already good but two were simply great.
However, after he had calmed down from his excitement, Shane was unable to decide what kind of item or manual he should target with the limitation crystals.
Most of his equipment was already at the peak of the stated quality and there were only a few other things that he could target with the limitation crystal due to the restrictions it had.
Nevertheless, it was extremely good, and Shane couldn't help but feel happy.
His excitement was short-lived because they had immediately teleported to the fourth floor, without any rest.
It was only when Shane read the fourth floor's dungeon task that he could breathe in relief.
[Rest?] Within the following 30 days, you are allowed to rest on the fourth floor with the remaining dungeon challengers. The rewards for the fourth floor will be given in accordance with the value their previous achievements in the dungeon distributed. Killing others is forbidden on the fourth floor. Minimum value points required to enter the 5th floor after 30 days =100.
The fourth dungeon task was not as simple as it looked like. That was because Shane almost immediately assumed that the value points could be taken away by others!
He could see illuminated numbers floating above Ilya's head, and assumed them to be her value points.
Thus, everyone who had lots of value points, turned into the target for those with few points who would try to hunt them.
Given the fact that one required 100 points to pass, and others would have less, there had to be a way to make up for the points they were missing out on.
This was where taking away others' points would come into play!
Estimating that one wouldn't voluntarily give away their previous value points, fighting against each other was likely to happen, and similarly encouraged by the fluare tower dungeon.
Thus, only the rule that killing was forbidden would prevent everything from turning into a massacre leaving behind only a few dungeon challengers alive.
Shane found the fourth floor's task interesting, but he would have preferred some rest too.
As such, he took a look around and sensed that every dungeon challenger had been teleported into a plain area that was in fact the center of the fourth floor.
Further away, Shane could see the crowded forest in one direction and a swamp, a mountain range, and desert region in the other directions.
Thus, without wasting any time, he told Ilya, who was next to him, to follow him quickly.
Exerting the [Light step] movement technique with his highest capabilities, he rushed ahead, followed by Princess Ilya.
At the same time, Shane reassured that every member of the Astral Artisans was fine, which was the most important factor for him.
Hearing that everyone had returned including those that had arrived in front of Shane too late, he couldn't help but sigh in relief.
In less than three minutes they had entered the forest as the first ones while Cosmo emerged from the Hidden Paradise.
Shane had commanded him to come out and move them away from public view as far as possible which was exactly what Cosmo did.
Squeezed on Shane's shoulder, Cosmo manifested one spatial portal after another, not wasting any time.
A few minutes had passed, and they had already crossed a distance of several kilometers before Shane told Cosmo to stop using his spatial affinity for now.
"Ilya, I think you understood the hidden meaning of the fourth-floor task, right?" His question was blunt and straightforward which might sound rude to others, but Princess Ilya was already accustomed to Shane's behavior.
As such, she knew that he was currently not bothering about formalities because something else was more important; finding and using the most efficient way to clear the floor with the highest completion rate.
"Yes I did. It's similar to a battle royale, just without killing each other. Like this, everyone can make a comeback until the period of 30 days is over!"
Shane nodded his head before he said,
"We should rest for a few more days and take a look at the situation. There should be a few dungeon challengers who will form large teams in order to hunt the rest. This will probably cause the others to form teams too.
Because we can't trust anyone else, it will be best for us to stick to our small team of two. Well, we are four with Cosmo and Umbra, but still."
Princess Ilya was of the same opinion as Shane before she said,
"Did you obtain a limitation crystal from the third floor's reward too? You also chose it from the Karn kingdom's treasury and were extremely overjoyed about it. After reading the description I understood that it's a treasure, but there should be restrictions and I think you will know them.
Please explain them to me, so that we can make use of our rewards for this floor's task!"
As requested, Shane told Princess Ilya everything he knew about the limitation crystals, which seemed to make her mood hit rock bottom.
From the looks of it she had been under the wrong impression that she could turn her mana purification technique to that of 100% which was something Shane would have loved to see too!
As this was not the case, Princess Ilya was unable to tell what item she wanted to improve.
It was only a few seconds later that she exclaimed,
"How did I not think of the item I chose from the Karn kingdom's treasury!?!"
