B-rank Dungeon, Lava Lake.

Above the destroyed volcano.

"Those... Students are not my weakness... They are my hope..." (Anna)

[Master Rank Fire magic: Flames of divine retribution!]

A huge beam of flames descended from the sky ripping apart a huge hole in the sky and distorting the space all around it. The sheer amount of concentrated mana in that pillar of flame is astounding.

The pillar of flames is so bright that it has paled the brightness of the sun and anyone who looked at this brightness without any protective measure got blinded in just a few seconds.

If someone could look at this scene, they will think that the gods are punishing an evil being with divine punishment descending directly from the heavens. But this is simply the mightiest magic of an S-rank mage created by burning her leftover mana and concentrating it in a single spot so as to not harm any other student.

As the might of this magic was too huge for this dungeon to handle, the dungeon finally started to fall apart and it started to become spatially unstable.

.

In the middle of the pillar of flames.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" (Durik)

As the unceasing flames descended on Durik his body started to ignite and burn at an immensely fast speed, he tried to escape but was not even able to move inside the dense and concentrated flames. It was as if he has been locked in a place by these dense flames.

The temperature inside the pillar of flames is hotter than the core of a star. An S-rank fire mage is capable of creating artificial stars with there, although they are small in size they can't be underestimated. The appearance of this artificial star in the form of a pillar of flames has created immense spatial misbalance in the dungeon.

If not for the fact that Anna is controlling the flames and not letting them harm the students, this magic could have destroyed an area of a thousand kilometers and would have created immense spatial destruction.

"NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! STOP!!!" (Durik)

As Anna slowly started to lose her strength the pillar of flames started to dissipate and the body of Durik also started to turn into nothingness. And in just a fraction of a second, the S-rank Demon Durik who was still laughing and acting menacingly was burned to nothingness.

If he hadn't let his guard down after stabbing Anna, he could have still been able to dodge this attack on time, but his arrogance and carelessness brought his doom. He underestimated Anna's resolve to protect the students behind her.

While Anna was starting to lose her consciousness slowly, a system notification appeared in front of her.

[Due to increased spatial instability, the 'Spatial path stabilizer' has lost its effect and ejection is being carried out... Returning to the original location of entrance...]

.

.

Outside the B-rank Dungeon's gate.

Monitoring room.

"p-please, Mr. Jin, we don't have any other spatial path stabilizing stones within the academy we can't do anything about it."

"Hah, so you are telling me that, I should leave the safety of the students and an S-ranker to fate!" (Jin)

Jin kicked the observer on his stomach and the observer was sent flying away, even though that observer is an A-ranker himself, he coughed out blood as he flew out of the monitoring room while destroying the walls and landing outside.

A hole got created in the wall due to this. Well, there are already more than a dozen holes in all the walls of the monitoring room.historical

"You all are f*ck*ng useless! Why are you even here if you can't even save the students from a mere demon!?" (Jin)

Jin's eyes are already bloodshot and several veins are popping on his face, he seems so angry and irritated that he could be mistaken for a heinous murderer right now.

"If only there was a way to get inside that dungeon!" (Jin)

Apparently, while Jin was not in the academy and was on his way back to the academy from a mission, Anna rushed inside the dungeon by using the only spatial path stabilizer in the academy.

And since there's no other stabilizer in the academy it will take about three hours if they ask the alliance to deliver one in an emergency. It's not that the alliance is inefficient in work it's just these stabilizers are too rare and difficult to find.

As Jin stomped his feet the whole building trembled from the shockwave. While stomping his feet Jin walked out of the building and came in front of the Dungeon gate.

'If only I was an SS-ranker..' (Jin)

.

(SS-rankers and above-level individuals have the capability to forcibly enter any dungeon by forcibly stabilizing the space by using their own mana. Such individuals are capable of tearing a low-rank dungeon apart just by using their aura alone. They can forcibly expand and close a low-rank dungeon gate.)

(The Dragon King, has even closed an A-rank dungeon gate by forcing it to close by hands. Yeah with bare hands. He is famous for slapping dungeon gates close below S-rank.)

(An SS-ranker can't close an S-rank Dungeon gate forcibly, but below an S-rank gate can be treated like toys.. ironic isn't it?)

.

While Jin was Looking at the Dungeon gate suddenly he felt spatial instability in the dungeon gate, and he immediately stepped back.

Just after Jin stepped back, the dungeon started to throw the students out of the dungeon gate like a cannon throwing cannonballs. The students were launched outside, some collided with the floor and some collided with the walls.

While most of the students ended up kissing the floor, stronger students who are ranked above twenty stabilized themselves after being kicked out.

Link even did a flip in the air and landed perfectly making him look cool. While he was still looking around Riya flew out of the Dungeon and collided with him, making him kiss the floor too.

Rio got thrown out of the dungeon but his quick sense helped him lend perfectly too. But he was not flashy like Link. Rio immediately used his sensing technique to sense the surrounding..

'Hmm, where's Lia..' (Rio)

As Rio was still thinking Lia flew out of the Dungeon but unlike others, she was not thrown out a silver aura was carrying her slowly and stabilizing her in the air. The silver aura helped Lia to land on the ground by gently laying her down.

Rio walked towards Lia and checked her pulse on her wrist.

'Hmm, she is okay it seems, perhaps she is just tired, I wonder what happened, but what is this strange aura around her.. well I will ask her when she wakes up..' (Rio)

In a corner Liam could be seen standing looking at the Dungeon gate, he could be seen sighing heavily..

'Why are you sighing.. are you still worried about that nasty woman?' (???)

'No, I am just trying to recover...' (Liam)

'Is that so?' (???)

One by one all the students who were still alive were thrown out of the dungeon and most of them were injured only a few have small injuries.

After a few seconds, all the teachers and staff members also started to gather around the dungeon and the healers began to gather around. The students who are fatally injured were carried to the healer's office. And those who are not seriously injured started to get treatment on the spot.

As Rio looked at all the healers that gathered in just a few seconds, a thought came to his mind:

'It seems compared to the monitoring staff, the healing staff of the academy is very efficient...' (Rio)

What Rio didn't know was that all the healers were being so efficient just because they have seen the wrath of Jin beforehand. They saw that several A-rankers in the monitoring department were beaten unconscious by Jin because they were careless and didn't notice the abnormality with the dungeon beforehand.

.

'Where are you, Anna.. where are you.. why are you not coming out!!' (Jin)

As time slowly passed Jin's anxiety increased by every second and the strange feeling in his heart increased. He has been feeling awful since a while ago, his instincts are telling him that there's something bad going on inside the dungeon.

But he is restricted and can't rush to help Anna.

Just as Jin was getting impatient, he finally saw Anna being thrown out of the dungeon, Jin immediately rushed and caught Anna in midair, as he landed and looked at Anna.

His face instantly became pale and ashen. And words refused to come out of his mouth..

"H-how can it be!?..." (Jin)
