After they reached the outer entrance of the portal, Lucas looked around. "No one would believe if someone told them there was a portal around this spot", he thought as he looked in front of him.

The Portal had a transparent hue, and it merged with the wall in the alleyway. The Portal didn't leave a gaping hole, but instead, it just merged itself with the wall, making any passer-by think that this was just a normal wall. Little will they know that the place they just crossed, was a Portal.

Lucas looked around before he stepped into the Portal, and everyone followed suit as soon as they saw him enter safely. Right after they entered, the Portal locked, not allowing anyone from the outside to enter, thus making it impossible for any interference. Lucas just stepped his foot out, to see if there was any way that he could step out in case of an emergency. And he found that he could.

A notification popped up, and Lucas smiled at it. "Well, for what it's worth, One thousand EXP is still too little, because I need more EXP each time I level up", he thought. He pulled up his Stats window.

"Well, there is the increase due to the Daily Task rewards. But I still haven't cleared my body of the impurities, thus this mission is going to be far more difficult", he thought but then a quest popped up.

"Sweet! Finally, I can have more spells, but I must master each spell before I move to the next one", he thought as he looked at the Mastery of the spells he had.

"Well, that's a good increase of Mastery. Let's just hope that I can bring up my Master to a hundred in this Portal for all of my spells, allowing me to spend time on the new spells that I obtain", he thought as he looked around.

The place was dark like it was night. The ground was barren, and the sand was gray. "Are we still on Earth?", thought Lucas as he looked around. The ground then shook, and a Tower began to rise a few hundred meters away from them. "Let's go and clear the Tower", announced Lucas and began to run towards the Tower.

[Eye Of Prediction - Activated]

Lucas began to use this skill to know if there were any traps on their way to the tower. But it seemed like that there were no traps on their way to the tower. It was just plain grounds. "Strange", thought Lucas as he reached the door of the Tower.

The tower door was tall, and it had two iron rings on either of the doors. It was purple, and the rings were golden. Lucas lifted the rings and banged it thrice, and the door began to creak open.

Everyone was on edge and readied their grips on their weapons. But nothing unordinary happened. Lucas stepped inside, and he lit up a [Fireball]. There was nothing in front of them. "It's safe, let's move in", he said as he stepped forward. The doors behind them closed, and the lights in the tower began to light up. A hologram was floating in front of them.

'Floor 1 - First Wave', it read. "Ready your weapons!", shouted Lucas as he let Tobias and Robert take the front, and he went to the back to observe the monsters that were about to enter. The monsters that came in were different than those back on earth. They were little green men, who came with spears and swords and bows in their hands. "What are they?', he thought as he used the [Inspect] on them.

[Basic Tier Beast - Goblin Swordsman]

[Basic Tier Beast - Goblin Spearman]

[Basic Tier Beast - Goblin Archer]

[Basic Tier Beast - Goblin Morningstar]

All of those little creatures were in a horde, and they extended till their eyes could see. This overwhelmed them, and they began to panic. "They are just Basic Tiers, kill them all in one sweep", said Lucas as he activated his [Aura Slash], which cut through many of them with sheer brutality.

Their blood was a reddish-green, and it sprayed from the necks that had fallen to Lucas's swords. "Hold back your strength. Don't use too much to deal with small fry", he said as he slaughtered through them, dousing himself in the blood of the goblins.

Everyone began to slaughter, and Tobias was feeling very bored as he didn't find this as a challenge at all. He wanted to challenge something higher, thus he began to crush the skulls of the goblins. Soon after twenty minutes of killing, all of them took a small break. "If they're going to come from all the sides, we need to do something", thought Lucas. He then looked at Emilia.

"Can you make an earth wall around us? If another horde comes, we need to be conservative as we do not know the number of rounds we have for each floor. We need our energy", he said. Emilia smiled as she placed her hands on the ground. Soon, walls were erected in the shape of a square, and a small opening was made. "Alright, let's wait for round two", he smiled.

Round Two commenced and came to another horde of goblins. This time, they were stronger and faster than the horde before. But Lucas's ingenious plan dwindled their numbers, allowing each of them to have ample rest, taking turns in killing them. Emilia couldn't move from the place as she had to maintain the spell, but being the Gunslinger she was, she shot each of them straight through the head.

The numbers began to dwindle, but the time taken was longer than before. It took them almost thirty-five minutes to finish off this horde, and after Emilia lowered the wall, a drop of sweat fell to the ground. "You have done well. Take some rest. We will carry on from here", said Robert as he helped Emilia down.

In came another Goblin, but this one was larger than the other goblins. Lucas used his [Inspect] to see what it was. 'Boss Round', read the words that floated above them.

[Intermediate Tier Beast - Bugbear]

[A variant of a Goblin. They are stronger and faster than a normal goblin, and they can use stealth. Weak against Magic]

After reading the description, he looked at the monster. It resembled a goblin, the only thing was that it was a lot hairier than the normal goblin. Its size went up to almost seven feet, and its face resembled a bear. They also had claws, but they weren't either long or sharp enough to injure them. It had wide armor on its chest and waist and was carrying a huge Morningstar.

Morningstar was a weapon like a club, only that the end was a steel ball and it had spikes all over it. "That's intimidating", he thought as he looked at the monster once again. "ROOOOAAAAAAR!!!", it roared out loud, and its saliva was spread through the air.

Lucas readied his grip and was about to attack, but he felt a touch on his shoulder. "He looks strong. Let me fight against him", said Tobias as he walked past Lucas and stood in front of the Bugbear. "You want a piece of us? You'll have to go through me first", he said as he cracked his fists.

The air surrounding them began to vibrate, and he began to channel lightning through his body. The Bugbear swung its Morningstar at his head, and Tobias just disappeared from the place he was standing at. He then reappeared again, right next to its legs. "Is that all you got, you weakling?", he taunted.

Lucas didn't lose his focus for a second, and he activated his [Eyes Of Perception], allowing him to see both of their movements moments before they happened. Just as his Morningstar was about to connect, Tobias disappeared once again, and he was standing right above its neck. "Weak", he muttered as he sliced his hand through its neck.

"Although it's weak, it has a tough hide", he thought as he jumped down, bathing in its blood that was spraying behind him.. "Hero time!", he thought as he didn't turn his head and gave a cool pose as he walked back to everyone.
