From MC's perspective:
After receiving the food, I walked to the near-empty seat to sit down. Then I started to eat the food. Slowly, then I realized there were a lot of gazes on me.
I guess people didn't expect me to come here. Ignoring everyone, I continued to eat the food. I didn't even look into social media sites last night.
I think my current floor clearance record can be ranked top among the level-5 wizards. Irrespective of the wizard halls.
If I clear the next ten floors today, then the remaining wizard halls would be alarmed as well.
20 minutes later,
After having breakfast, I started heading towards the Sub-Taboo Hall. Soon, I reached the area.
But wizard students are walking by. It's not a coincidence but they are doing it purposely to collect information.
Seeing my appearance, a few of them were startled. Then quietly left the place.
After arriving at the spot, I took out my ID for scanning.
After the verification, I walked into the hall. As I expected, someone is working behind the desk.
"Sister Carolina, you are still doing it," I said, looking at her.
Carolina stood up from the seat in surprise.
"What are you doing here?"
"What about the trial?" She asked back-to-back questions.
"Well, I am about to go there. But I thought about checking you first," I replied.
Sigh~
A long sigh escaped from her mouth. Looking at Vincent, a hint of complexity flashes in her eyes.
She very well knew her junior brother has long since surpassed her.
"Well, I can't be compared to you. But I will follow in your footsteps. Soon I'll participate in the trial," She said with confidence.
"Good to hear that. See you after the trial," After saying that, I decided to leave.
Carolina also wished him in return.
After a few minutes, I reached the Battle Tower Space. Stepping out of the phone booth, I started walking towards the Battle Tower.
Then my gaze slightly swept over the LeaderBoard Rankings. I saw my name glowing in green colors.
Which means the Trial is going on. I don't know what is waiting for me on this floor.
Wizard students are standing in front of the Battle Tower in groups. Seeing the crowd, a hint of displeasure flashes in my eyes.
I remembered the words of Senior Gilbert. Even if the trouble finds me, I have to avoid it anyhow.
When I continue to walk forward.
Uproar~
A small commotion breaks out. But I saw it was not because of me. Someone ahead of me is approaching the Battle Tower entrance.
Seeing that a quick gleam flashes in my eyes. When I got closer, I overheard their conversation.
"Wow"
"Senior Thompson is going to enter the Battle Tower"
"Is he going to break his record?"
"Our Elemental Hall will surely become famous."
The wizard students are gossiping. But hearing their conversation. My mouth curved into an arc.
Here I thought I was alone. But it looks like some people can't wait. Elemental Hall..uh? Is it a coincidence?
At the same time, the wizard students noticed my appearance.
"Hey, Vincent is here?"
"Sub-Taboo Hall is going to shine again"
"Not this time"
"I think Senior Thompson will steal the limelight today."
Suddenly people started the comparison. Their words reach my ears. But I don't have time for that.
After arriving in front of the entrance, I took a step forward.
Swish~
I disappeared from the spot and appeared in the middle of nowhere. Above me, the sky is covered with black clouds.
Is it going to rain? My eyes flickered.
[Floor:31]
[The Challenge starts now]
The announcement came. Then I turned around to investigate this place.
Swoosh~
Right after, I heard a rustling sound. Unsurprisingly, this was the movement caused by the monster.
Then I looked around and started observing the place. The boulders and rocks are all over the place. The place appears to be a mining area.
But except for mine, I found broken rocks and boulders on the ground.
Soon I saw the monster. It's safe to say, the monster gradually found me. The monster appears to be a 5th-order monster.
The monster is the Red Tail Scorpion. A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes. This variety of scorpion monsters is half the height of mine.
But I think it has many skills as well.
"System, probe the monster in front of me," I said to the system.
[Ding! The Host's voice is recognized]
[Status Panel]
[Name: Red Tail Scorpion]
[Level: 5th-Order- Peak]
[Strength: 498]
[Vitality: 499]
[Speed: 498]
[Stamina: 500]
[Skill: Poison Sting, Deadly Claws, Hard Shell, Fast Movement]
Looking at the status panel. I furrowed my eyebrows. This monster variety is slightly stronger than the dotted snake.
But gladly it has no regeneration skill. Otherwise, I would have to empty the resources.
The Red Tail Scorpion started to approach the prey. Unlike the dotted snake, it didn't launch an attack.
Meanwhile,
I noticed the movements of the monster. I don't want to waste time anymore. So I made up my mind to end it quickly.
When the scorpion monster slowly enters within the spellcasting range.
"Gravity Field," I cast the spell.
A powerful gravitational force is applied within the range. The pressure caused the monster to let out a weird cry.
The next moment, something strange happened.
The Red Tail Monster easily escaped by breaking out from the spell. Then I noticed the small cracks on the monster's top.
The monster escaped the gravity field by using one of its movement skills.
Seeing that I decided to attack with a different spell.
"Gravity Blast," I released the magic spell, pointing fingers at the target. A wisp of gravity magic released from the finger and shot at the target.
Boom~
A terrible sound reverberated. As the magic spell hits the target successfully.
The gravity magic easily tore through the cracked shells and began to destroy the body.
Then I checked the monster's status again. The vitality was dropped by half. With a few more spells, the monster will die eventually.
10 minutes later,
The cold corpse of the Red Tail Scorpion dropped dead on the ground.
