On the other hand, Yon the guardian of the 9th floor was sitting on the clouds with a blank expression. His left hand was trembling non-stop as he looked at the screen in front of him.
A white-haired old man wearing silver robes was sitting beside him. The white-haired old man looked at Yon and sighed before tapping on his shoulder.
“It’s okay Yon. You will get used to it pretty soon.”
Yon gazed at the white-haired old man. It was Susan, the Tower’s first-floor guardian. Susan was here to punish Yon because he didn’t design the floor.
Susan looked at the screen present in front of Yon. Inside the screen, he could see Alec, Jian, and Kyle relentlessly plucking all the fruits present on the different trees.
“My garden….”
A low voice escaped Yon’s trembling lips. He wanted to rush and stop the trio from doing more damage but because of Susan’s presence, he could do nothing but watch as his precious garden was destroyed.
‘It took me more than 100 years to grow all those trees! They are just taking everything without any care?’
Yon cried inwardly and took a deep breath. He never thought that the trio would find his garden. The garden was a different space he created with a lot of hard work!
He looked at the screen and groaned when he saw Jian breaking a whole branch of a tree accidentally.
‘At least don’t harm the trees!’
Yon screened inwardly when he saw his precious trees being broken down one after another.
Susan sighed. Originally he was here to punish Yon but now he could do nothing but pity the latter because he knew Yon put a lot of effort into growing those trees.
After thinking for a while, Susan looked at Yon seriously. Yon has already told him about the mission he gave the trio.
“I think you should send them to the treasure room or else they will probably find the rooms where you placed your different collections of antiques and….”
Susan wasn’t able to complete his sentence when Yon stood up.
“No, I can’t let them find my precious collections!”
With a resolute expression, Yon looked at Susan.
“I will give them their rewards and kick them out from this floor.”
Susan replied with an ‘Oh’ and left the floor with a chuckle.
After Susan left, Yon also disappeared from the clouds because the more time he wasted, the more his precious collections would be in danger!
….
Meanwhile, Kyle plucked a lot of fruits without any restraint. He wasn’t able to eat all those fruits but he just threw everything inside his storage ring.
‘I can sell them!’
While moving, he arrived in front of a small pink tree. It was different from the other trees because instead of leaves the tree only had pink color branches.
Kyle jumped down from the tree he was sitting in and looked at the pink tree. The tree size was hardly reaching Kyle’s shoulder.
With a serious expression, Kyle grabbed the tree trunk and plucked the whole tree before throwing it inside his storage ring.
With a satisfied expression, he left the place and started moving toward another direction.
If Yon had seen Kyle’s action, he would have probably coughed up blood because Kyle was doing the most damage!
After three more hours, Kyle was standing in front of a black wall. He seemed to have reached the end of the forest. With a sigh, he started walking back to where he came from.
After a few more hours, Kyle arrived at the place where he parted with Alec and Jian.
To his surprise, Jian and Alec were already waiting for him at the place. Only Bia was absent.
Kyle looked at Alec and Jian.
“You broke through?”
He questioned and gazed at Jian who was wearing a smug expression.
“Yes! I am a (D)-Rank mage now!”
Jian laughed and released his aura to show Kyle his strength.
Kyle nodded and gazed at Alec.
“What about you?”
Alec shook his head but there was a smile present on his face.
“Not yet but I think I will break through to (C-)-Rank within a month.”
Kyle looked at Alec. He already guessed Alec was somewhere near (D+)-Rank but hearing it directly from his mouth was still a little surprising.
Jian looked at Alec with awe. He thought his speed was already fast enough but Alec was even faster than him! With a sigh, Jian shook his head and gazed at Kyle.
“Hey, what’s your Rank? It’s not fair that only you know ours.”
He grumbled. No matter how Jian tried he wasn’t able to sense Kyle’s rank. It was like something was blocking his perception.
Alec’s ears also perked up because he was also curious about Kyle’s rank.
“Oh?”
Kyle raised his brow. It seemed they weren’t able to sense his rank.
‘Is it because of the earring?’
He looked at the duo and released his (D)-Rank aura.
“(D)-Rank?”
Juan exclaimed with surprise.
Kyle shrugged his shoulders. If there was someone else he would have never told the latter his rank but after spending a whole month with the duo standing in front of him he somewhat trusted the both of them.
“Now that we are done here, let’s go toward the right side because I saw a huge door present at the end!”
Alec said and gestured for Jian and Kyle to follow behind him.
While they were walking, Kyle looked around with a frown.
‘Bia where are you? We are leaving.’
After a second, Bia’s reluctant voice resounded inside Kyle’s head.
-‘Huh? So soon. I am not full yet!’
‘Come back now or else I am leaving you behind!’
-‘How can you leave this precious me behind! Wait a minute I am coming.’
After ten minutes, Bia’s flying figure arrived on top of Kyle. She landed on Kyle’s head with a grumpy expression because she wanted to eat some more fruits.
After walking for an hour, Kyle, Alec, and Jian arrived in front of a large black door.
Alec gazed at the duo standing beside him and hurriedly pushed the door. Before when he discovered the door he didn’t approach it rashly.
The moment he pushed the door, with a loud bang the door opened, the trio gazed inside the door and their eyes widened with shock.
