Raji's car, followed by several muscle cars, left the academy in a domineering momentum, passerby looked at this convoy in awe and the young boys smiled and cheered after looking at this convoy, hoping to one day get rich enough to ride and shine with similarly great momentum.
The several bodyguards outside kept the people at bay and cleared the path ahead for the luxury car, they had no choice but to push Raji's fans back, to open the path ahead.
While the outside scene seemed to be filled with excitement, the inside atmosphere of the luxury car wasn't that good in comparison.
…
The very moment Link and Liam saw Fade, their expressions had a clear change and they looked at Fade with disgust and anger in their eyes. (Liam has a genuine reason to be angry, but Link hates Fade without any reason, he just doesn't like his face or presence at all…)
lightsnοvεl Link pointed to Fade and said in a mocking tone:
"Is that trash also going to be part of our raiding party? Are you sure you haven't mistaken him for someone else?" (Link)
Hearing Link's harsh remarks, Raji frowned a little and replied in a cold tone:
"He got the recommendation of Neo Aldif, so yeah…" (Raji)
Raji glanced between Link and Fade back and forth for a moment, before saying:
"It seems you two have some past grievances, but right now you are in the same team, so it's better to put your differences behind you and work as a team…" (Raji)
"You are the leader of this team, you need to be open-minded and calm in any possible situation…" (Raji)
Hearing Raji's remarks, Link glared at Fade a few more times before finally stopping.
He knew that Raji was trying to teach him, and what she said was for his growth and benefit, yet he still couldn't help but say…
"Tch, okay… don't blame me if he ends up dead later…" (Link)
Fade was not going to sit still and keep getting insulted for no reason. He puffed up his chest in pride and said in a mocking tone:
"Haha, the rich brats don't know the way of the world, go back and snuggle in your mama's arms, haha" (Fade)
Hearing Fade curse his dead mother, Link's anger soared through the roof and veins bulged on his face making him look hideous.
Link's aura rose and the mana in the surroundings started to tremble crazily.
"F*ck! You are dead meat now!" (Link)
The car trembled due to Link's aura and cracks appeared on the metal floor of the car under Link's feet.
"Oh yeah! Then come you snotty rich mama's boy!" (Fade)
Fade brought out his staff from his space ring and was also ready to cast spells on Link at any moment.
He was not the same Fade now, who used to get intimidated by the likes of Link and his lackeys before, he has grown beyond his limits and has the confidence to go against even the gods themselves. (He can't withstand a single punch from Link right now… he is just stretching the plot armor to protect him.)
Just when the situation was getting more and more tense, Raji released a bit of her aura on both of them and made them calm down.
Even though Raji only used a tiny fraction of her aura, it still made Link kneel to the ground and put a stop to his rage. Fade directly fell on the floor and kissed the dirt due to the pressure from the aura. (Bro has some serious beef with the floor.)
"Shut up, you two!… sit down on your seats and calm down your brains!…. Tch! Children these days are so rude and foul-mouthed…" (Raji)
Raji glanced at Fade who fell on the floor and said in a cold tone:
"Keep your mouth restrained, Neo may have recommended you as a candidate, but I still have the power and authority to eliminate you, right here, right now… be sure to keep that foul mouth in check from now on…" (Raji)
After warning Fade once, Raji shook her head in annoyance and closed her eyes to meditate, she was questioning her decision to come here in the first place.
At Raji's scolding, Fade and Link got up and went back to their seats while glaring at each other.
Both of them had the look as if they were looking at a dead person.
'I stopped beating this trash for a few days and now he have the audacity to talk bad about me!…. Truly laughable, just you wait!…' (Link)
'F*king rich bastard! doesn't know manners at all! it would be better to teach him some manners in place of his parents! I will pay this humiliation back a million-fold!' (Fade)
While the two of them glared at each other and cursed at each other in their minds, the others also frowned at this commotion.
Liam had also been staring at Fade with cold eyes from the start, but he didn't say anything because of Raji's daunting presence.
Riya also glared at Fade for cursing at Link's mother, and Kira looked at Fade with a concerned look on her face.
Lia had a frown on her face but she also didn't say anything.
Only Rio was as expressionless as always.
He didn't even care about all these random taunting events happening around him, he has already seen such events many times in the novel, so he was already used to it.
Moreover, Rio wasn't even surprised at the fact that Fade would also end up becoming a candidate.
The meeting of gods is a major event and it is destined that Fade would go there too. No matter how much the plot has been bent and stretched by Rio, some cannon events are bound to happen no matter which way.
(Heavenly Luck is not a bluff, it does exist in this world and whomever the heavenly luck favors, it can bend even the rules of the universe to some extent for them.)
…
(Explaining, What happened behind the scenes:-
Including Rio and the other four, there are a total of five students who shined the most in the 'Group Survival Test', but as you may already know, there are seven supposed candidate seats.
So, there were two empty seats, and Kira who has always been 'First' in theory exams, got the sixth seat due to her efforts.
For the last seat, Kira sent a letter to Liam's older brother like last time (Ch 56), and asked him to get it secured for Fade. Since Fade was already quite high in ranks in last year's final exams, he easily got the recommendation and the candidate position for the seventh seat.
Although Kira's grace has been shining on him for a long time now, Fade doesn't care about it one bit, he takes all of this for granted and since he hates rich children like Link and Liam, he couldn't help but mock them. If not for the fact that Link and Liam both are considerably stronger than him, he would have already beaten them to a pulp.)
(Explanation ends.)
…
The car continued to move and the atmosphere inside the car remained tense and chilly for the rest of the journey.
Every once in a while, Fade glared at Link and Liam and smiled in a teasing way, while Link and Liam continued to ignore him, thinking of him as a clown.
After a long journey of an hour or so, finally, the car stopped in front of a luxurious hotel's gate.
The bodyguard opened the door of the car again and everyone got down from the car one by one.The staff members of the hotel personally came out to greet the group and show them to their rooms.
The owner of the hotel smiled sheepishly and wanted to make a good impression on Raji with fake praises and flattery, but Raji paid it no mind and went to her room with the usual cold expression on her face.
Looking at this, Rio and the others also went to their respective rooms, the raid was scheduled for tomorrow, so they could stay in this luxury hotel for today and rest as much as they wanted.
…
Hotel Devalya, Rio's room.
Rio entered the room and a huge king-sized bed came into his view. He glanced at the other furniture and everything seemed luxurious and amazing. (The Great Freya Academy's dorm rooms also have luxurious facilities and king-sized beds in each of the rooms, the academy's dormitory is better than these famous hotel rooms.)
Rio ignored these things and directly walked towards the window first, he had to confirm something first.
He opened the window and glanced outside.
'Sure enough, there it is…' (Rio)
Rio stared at a nearby car parking, with complicated thoughts in his mind.
'Isn't this the same dungeon… It's the 'hidden dungeon of Maya' which Fade never got to conquer and had to retreat from, due to injuries….' (Rio)
Rio stared at the parking area for a while and several thoughts flew by in his mind.
'Things are getting interesting all of a sudden…' (Rio)
Originally, Rio didn't know the exact location of the dungeon because it wasn't mentioned in the novel.
What he only knew was that it was located on an abandoned floor of the basement in the car parking area, near a very famous hotel.
Now, their current situation is very similar to all the above-
mentioned requirements.
'Although I am not sure, but since Fade has followed us here, then this must be the same dungeon…' (Rio)
Rio knew that the protagonist's halo doesn't lie, if the area is similar to the one described in the novel and even the protagonist is nearby, then it's obvious that your random guess is true.
Thinking this far Rio shook his head.
'Fade my guy, you really are my lucky star, you brought me to one of your chances on your own… what a great protagonist you are, I will make sure to steal your chances and leave nothing behind for you again to pay back for your help…' (Rio)
Thinking about all this a devilish smile appeared on Rio's face, if someone outside had looked at the window of Rio's room right now, they would have fainted from fear due to his villainous smile.
'Magnificent…' (Rio)

1.No (He was just bluffing and if not even Rio can cut Link, then how would the measly Fade go about doing it…)
2.Yes (Perhaps plot armor will stretch the way for him.)
3.Others. (I don't know anything, I just hate this guy Fade to the core!!! Kill him!!!)
