In the last fight, even though Aion Enhanced his spear with fire magic to burn down the carnivorous plant, the beast didn't die that fast. He could only assume that Aion's focus was wavering due to the exhaustion.
The fights hadn't been that intense, but even between them, Aion was training, so it couldn't be helped that he would feel like that… besides, close to ten hours had passed since they entered the tower. It was time to eat something.
"It seems that you have a nearly endless supply of salamanders meat now," Sauros said while Aion was cooking the food with his magic.
Aion didn't say anything about that, but he has a ton of meat from several types of monsters and animals. Time didn't pass inside his inventory, so there was no risk of the meat rotting. Regardless, he didn't want to give information about himself to others even more now than ever. For the Sauros' tribe, who needed all sorts of pieces of information across the periods of that world, asking about things or obtaining Intel like that was second nature. Even when he claimed that he would keep information about him hidden…
After eating his fill, Aion went to sleep since the danger of being attacked inside the tower seemed nonexistent. Aion also didn't want to believe that his ancestor, that saved the world once and wasn't power-hungry enough to become an actual goddess, would be that sneaky…
After exactly five hours, Aion woke up, only to find Seris watching things around while hugging her right knee. Things haven't been good between them, so he decided to focus on his training.
"Do you have muscles for brains?" Seris asked. "Can't you do anything aside from training in your free time?"
"No," Aion replied.
"Are you picking a fight with me as soon as you wake up?" Seris asked.
"My words exactly," Aion replied.
"... I must apologize for my previous actions," Seris said and then sighed. "I guess from the perspective of someone who doesn't belong to the tribe, my words and intentions seemed ill-mannered."
"No problem," Aion said.

Aion checked his class and then decided to use his improvement points to enhance Sonic Throw. Thanks to that, the damage increased exponentially… he realized that he couldn't neglect that after the previous battle.
"Can you at least pay attention when someone is talking to you?" Seris asked. "This is annoying, but I also didn't want to let things end like this. This journey wasn't half bad, in my opinion."
"I am paying attention. I just like to multitask," Aion said. "As I said, that is water under the bridge. I don't hold grudges against you guys, but I don't like to repeat myself."
"Yes, yes, if the archives cause problems, then you will look for us and trash our base," Seris said. "Anyway, try not to fight all by yourself from now on. That might sound weird coming from us, that did a lot less than you in this journey, but we will be here to help if you need."
"I will keep that in mind," Aion said. "I will be waiting for your help on the final floor of the dungeon."
"... What do you think we are going to face there?" Seris asked while frowning.
"Just use your imagination. I like to imagine the worst-case scenario all the time, and thanks to it, nothing ever surprises me."
That sure suited Aion, so Seris could shrug and smile a bit. In any case, after two hours, Sauros woke up, and then they began to prepare for the next floor.
When they found the next enemy and Aion used Power Throw, the impact completely destroyed the enemy. The effects of the improvement points were working… Sauros and Seris thought that Aion failed to control himself because the hours of rest completely reinvigorated him.
In any case, things went the same way until the 35th floor… the next time that showed up was a cloaked mage, and it had been a while since Aion saw one. In any case, he used the combination of Power Throw and Sonic Throw with ice magic. Still, the enemy just pointed their hands toward the weapon and made it slow down before it could reach them…
"Gravity magic? Telekinesis?" Aion furrowed his eyebrows in surprise.
Seris and Sauros began to attack when Aion changed his class to recover his weapon. However, their magic projectiles also stopped around the enemy and were quickly thrown right back at them. Aion repelled those after recovering his spear by swinging the weapon to the side while also charging at the enemy…
When Aion was twenty meters away, the enemy pointed his hands toward him and forced him to stop moving. Even while using all his strength, Aion couldn't move an inch… the power of the enemy's magic weakened a bit when Sauros and Seris attacked again, but Aion only walked five meters.
"What the fuck…" Aion clicked his tongue in annoyance and then changed his class to Necromancer.
Aion felt his body getting lighter, and then he fired several ice spears toward the enemy, but they made all of them stop moving. While clicking his tongue, Aion used Force Release and then summoned dozens of those around the enemy before firing them. They were unable to stop all of them, but in the end, Aion didn't see any blood falling when the spear hit the enemy… or perhaps he didn't hit them…
