"Where are you taking us?" Silva asked, still wearing her mage robe.
"There's someone you need to meet. This is about Agares."
Silva fell silent. Throughout her journey in the dungeon from floor 1 to floor 55, she had failed to meet Agares—even finding a trace of him proved impossible.
She always hoped that with each new floor, she would at least learn that Agares had been there. But after defeating dozens of floor bosses and hundreds of minor monsters, she found nothing.
There had been moments of despair, frustration, and the urge to give up. But Silva pulled herself together, realizing her mission was important—not just for herself, but for her friends and for Agares.
Thanks to this dungeon, they had advanced to stage four, level two, whereas before they had been stuck at stage three, level five.
They had also gained a lot—gems, cores, weapons, and rare alchemist materials not easily found on the surface.
'Agares! Where are you?' Silva wondered.
