The first thought that crossed Luke's mind when he saw the red screen was that it concerned his own health. The system had only ever reacted with such urgency when his life was in immediate danger. Even so, the intensity of the warning felt excessive.
It was only after he realized that the system was warning him about the dungeon that his thoughts began racing through every possible assumption. What could have suddenly happened in that world for the system to issue a warning of this magnitude? Was it something related to Synthia? Perhaps Grella?
No. Something told Luke that the matter went far beyond either of them.
And since it was exceedingly rare for the system to impose a time limit on a task, he did not waste any more time speculating. Without further hesitation, Luke vanished into the dungeon.
'Hopefully, I won't have to stay here for long.'
