Adventurers who had advanced to the 45th floor were now retreating to the 40th.

Parties carrying food supplies through magical tools freely moved between the 41st and 45th floors, but those who had stayed in the tower for half a year or even a year, using the cave in the middle of the mountain as a safe zone, had no choice but to emerge outside, filled with frustration.

Even the top adventurers who aimed to conquer the highest floors of the tower couldn't endlessly spend gold coins from their wallets.

The harpies might not have completely blocked all supply caravans, but when supplies were reduced to half, it was inevitable.

If the price of bottled water during a mountain hike was 5,000 won, it was reluctantly acceptable, but who would be mad enough to pay 150,000 won for a bottle?

Adventurers weren't special forces receiving aid from a superpower nation.

Even though the mages of the Magic Tower were focused in their papers and research, they werent foolish enough to pour all their fortune into it irrationally.

However, if their stubborn nature drove them to invest everything into researching how to exterminate harpies, that would be a different story.

First, here's the statement from the Guild. Recently, the adventurer and mage Hanna has received a divine revelation, ascending to the status of a hero, and this has been recognized by the royal family. Therefore, the Adventurers Guild has decided to promote Hanna not from intermediate to senior level, but directly to the highest level

Thinking this, Ellis began reading from one of the many documents she held.

It seemed like a cutscene from the introduction of the 41st floor, explaining the status a player achieves by becoming a hero.

The benefits of becoming a top adventurer, like reduced commission fees for quests, mediation with nobles, priority in personal quests, and the right to request information, flowed from Ellis's lips.

Rebecca, sitting beside me, couldn't contain herself and began talking to her subordinate.

It seemed the benefits were better than those for an ordinary top adventurer.

Yet, from the grumbling of the subordinate next to her, they weren't extraordinarily good.

We do get some benefits, but they're nothing special?

Exactly. Its typical of the Guild, I suppose. We've endured the hardships, but the benefits are somewhat underwhelming....

The benefits werent jaw-droppingly amazing.

Since the Adventurers' Guild was mainly involved in commission fees and had little influence outside the cities, this was to be expected.

The only contentious point was receiving benefits beyond the top level upon reaching the 41st floor.

Hmm, Hanna, is it? I had an eye on her when she was asking questions with such enthusiasm in the carriage last time.

Hehe, while our students write a single paper, this girl has ascended 40 floors, confronting and overcoming four tower anomalies in the process. Shes certainly a talent that piques interest.

Id love to bring her to our lab... If she conquers the tower, maybe we can collaborate, based on her experiences.

The fact that this doesn't seem to be a problem might be because the old mages were licking their lips, eyeing Han Se-Ah.

All the top-class mages showed unanimous interest, eagerly wanting to 'kidnap' Han Se-ah into their laboratories to assist in research and writing papers.

There was no particular problem as they all desired her for scholarly pursuits.

Mages were mostly mad, and everyone knows it was best not to get involved with top-tier and senior adventurers.

"Hey, this is kind of scary in a different way. That lightning mage grandpa and the other mages... They all seem like the ones we saw in the carriage or those who visited our inn. One day, I might wake up not in the tower, but in the Magic Tower, chained and forced to write crazy papers, right?"

-So kidnapping graduate students?

-Such a big research topic doesn't fit in my head~

-After taking questions from the mages during the last donation wave, I wonder how much karma has built up haha

-But thanks to that, those going into the Magic Tower are watching Han Se-Ah's streams and learning

-If you bombard a research mage with questions before you break through to the 20th floor, it leads to an almost certain 'employment' as a Magic Tower slave.

She was receiving more gazes filled with envy, desire, and pity than usual.

Regardless of whether Han Se-ah shivered under the gaze of the elderly mages with their gleaming eyes, the exhausted Ellis started reading another document.

"Next is the declaration from the temple. The temple, which appointed adventurer Hanna as a hero, struggles to spread the words of the Goddess, as adventurers have been forced to retreat due to the Demon King's trickery"

Ellis, looking tired, picked up a piece of white letter paper that emitted a faint fragrance, seemingly blessed with holy water, glowing softly in her grasp.

Some deeply devout adventurers slightly bowed their heads and made the sign of the cross just by seeing the faint light, but Ellis, tired, disregarded it and started to read the temple's declaration in a slow, clerical manner, resembling an office worker worn out on a Monday afternoon more than a beautiful guild receptionist.

Therefore, the temple declares that after purifying the 35th floor, it will continue to the 40th floor to assist adventurers.

Wow, seems like the temple is pretty serious.

I thought they would stop at the 35th floor, but they plan to keep moving forward?

While the Guild's declaration focused on benefits for the player who became a hero, the Temple's was a statement of intent to continue advancing, not content with just the 35th floor.

Indeed, if the difficulty permanently increased but the Temples aid was only once, it wouldnt balance out.

The expressions of the adventurers, who had personally experienced the contributions of temple knights, priests, and nuns in tackling the corrupted marsh, were quite bright.

Some seem to think that divine energy was useless against harpies, though.

The subsequent royal proclamation was unremarkable.

It simply stated that the royal family was hopeful about the temple's actions and would provide financial support.

This seems like a background story unrelated to the player.

It didn't matter that the hero-level benefits made the commission fees lucrative.

"Are those creatures still there?"

"They're still circling overhead. But none of the colorful ones seem to be coming down."

This was because the harpies had no intention of entering within range, regardless of any benefits received.

Thus, advancing through the 41st floor under the burden of their watchful eyes, Han Se-ah's minimap steadily expanded, marking safe zones here and there, yet so far, there had been zero encounters.

For an experienced hunter, this might be a time to feel anxious, but what about Han Se-ah, a streamer and player who needs to show something to her viewers?

"Ah, seriously! What kind of game drains people's blood like this? Those things don't even think about coming down."

-Exploration of the 41st floor almost done, but zero battles LOL

-Maybe Teacher Roland should just throw some rocks at them

-But if they die in mid-air, the mana stones would just fall off the cliff anyway

-Why not just breeze through to the 45th floor without any combat?

-LOL, head straight for the boss~ Teacher Roland can handle them

"It's kinda scary that we might actually get to the 45th floor without a single fight, not to mention the 50th. Maybe if I level up my Alchemy a bit more and make something like flash arrows, I could knock them all down... But they don't seem to want to attack at all. Is this some kind of bug because we have a born 6?"

Walking and walking up the mountain, just immersed in conversation.

The situation seemed funny, so the viewers didn't seem too dissatisfied, though there were a few grumbles.

Han Se-ah couldn't help but feel wronged.

What could she do if the monsters were too scared to attack?

There might be skills or magic for ultra-wide area taunting, but she couldnt taunt from a distance unreachable by arrows.

So, for now, she just had to walk and find safe zones.

Hoping that the clue for the quest would start from the 41st floor and not the 45th.

Judging by the average time, Grace would likely find the passage to the 42nd floor soon.

It was natural for the exploration to speed up with no battles.

"Here, a new safe zone. But this cave... seems strange."

Was Han Se-ah's fervent hope finally paying off?

The new cave discovered by Grace was different from the others.

As soon as they entered, it was not only much wider, but unlike other caves, it didn't just end with a wall.

Following a gentle breeze from somewhere, Grace cautiously moved further inside, and everyone followed.

What they found deeper inside the cave was an oddly out-of-place narrow staircase.

[A strangely cool breeze blows from the inside of the cave]

[Upon closer inspection inside, a deep staircase is revealed]

[Who could have carved these stairs and created this secret space in the cave of this high mountain range, and for what purpose?]

"That's right! This is it! I had faith in you, BB Games, you're the best~"

Han Se-ah let out a peculiar cry of admiration at the updated quest window, thrilled.

She eagerly followed Grace, without any hesitation heading towards the narrow staircase.
