Nexus Organization

"I didn't expect Raiden to use an F High-Grade monster as the last boss. Are the students of the S Class this strong?" a red-haired man said in a surprised tone as he looked at a wolf-like creature and a woman who was tearing open the wolf monster's belly and eating the raw meat.

"It's not just about the quality but also the quantity of this year's students. Even the other two empire academies have a lot of S Class students," a fat old man said as he looked into the distance, his eyes taking in all the students who had entered this dungeon.

"I think something is going to happen in the world. The sudden rise of so many geniuses is bound to shake the world," the red-haired man said.

"Of course, these S Class students are too powerful for their age. Most of them are 1st rank, and in just six months, all of them will be F Rank. What is even scarier is that all of them are capable of killing people above their own rank. Such geniuses are rare."

"Of course, but now so many have appeared at once. This is something that has never happened before, and I've noticed that even ordinary geniuses are getting better and better."

"Something must have happened in the world, but it's not something we two should worry about."

"You're right, but what I'm thinking is that if these geniuses grow up, how many people like Raiden are going to appear? Just thinking about that gives me goosebumps."

"A genius is a genius if they are alive; otherwise, all corpses are the same," the woman whose face and body were covered in blood said. She was wearing clothes that hugged her body, but these dark clothes were stained with blood. Her unwashed, messy black hair and fair skin were also bloody. She had a bloody and unpleasant smell that made anyone stay away from her. Her red eyes that let out two lines of red tears made her look like an evil princess on a quest to hunt down those who betrayed her.

"Boss...are we truly doing this?" the red-haired man asked, a hint of fear in his voice.

The woman, who seemed to be the boss, nodded her head.

"Finn, don't worry," the old man said. "We've concealed our power. Although we've become weak, Raiden won't be able to find us."

"Old man, I know, but..." Finn chuckled, trying to ease his nerves. "But just thinking of Raiden gives me goosebumps. If he finds us, then it's all over."

"Like I said, don't worry," the old man said, and he was about to reassure Finn further when he felt a buzzing in his ear.

"Lester, Raiden went somewhere, so don't worry about anything and go all out. Although you can't use your full power in this dungeon, you'll be able to overpower every student."

"Haha, that's the best thing," the old man, Lester, laughed and patted Finn on the shoulder. "Gadu said that Raiden went away somewhere, so this is our chance to strike now."

"What! That's great, old man. Let's get to work before Raiden comes back," Finn nodded his head, expressing his excitement, and then he stared in astonishment.

He saw a large wolf monster's skeleton and blood around it, but nothing else. Then he saw his boss licking her fingers.

"Boss ate too fast," Finn muttered.

My speed, battle awareness, mental capacity to understand, quick reflexes, quick ways to find and kill enemies, control over the sword, and speed – everything had become better and better.

My Intermediate Swordsmanship Skill might become Advanced Swordsmanship in a month if I keep engaging in these life and death battles, but achieving Master Swordsmanship Skill was something I couldn't do.

Advanced and Master had a very big gap that would take a lot of effort, sweat, and life-and-death battles to learn.

However, if I got the Hundred Orb, then I could promote my Swordsmanship to the Master Level. However, before getting the Hundred Orb, we have to defeat the Nexus Organization Members.

Nexus was an organization made up of seven people, and these seven people were SS-Class.

A woman named Willow was going to enter this dungeon to kill all S Class students. Willow was one of the seven people who founded Nexus, and with her were Finn and Lester; these two were A Class.

Although in this dungeon, these three ranks would fall to F Rank, for S Class students, F Rank was still something that was hard to defeat.

However, in this dungeon, most of the students had their ranks increased, so it wouldn't be that difficult to defeat these three people. Still, the S Class had to pay a heavy price to defeat them.

"Let's go," Kitsuneia said.

She created a barrier around me and her, and now any monster that came near the barrier died the moment they touched it.

Inside this barrier, Kitsuneia and I walked to the center of this dungeon. Kitsuneia was a girl who preferred quiet, so I didn't say anything other than "thank you."

Because of her, I was able to experience many life-and-death situations, and every time I came close to dying, she saved me. In this battle, I was also able to rank up, and not to mention, my swordsmanship and movement techniques also improved.

This dungeon had seven parts, and every part was customized by the team that landed on that part. In my part, we didn't stay long and head near the center part of dungeon, where Kitsuneia started fighting against 1st rank monster.

Because, we moved near center stage, the low level monster for me left behind, however those monster chased after me so I got monster to fight against.

I didn't see any monsters with 4th, 3rd, or 2nd Rank.

In the novel, Elmer and Ava together encountered the monsters with 2nd Rank since they were 2nd Rank.

The dungeon had hundred of varities of monster, I think because teacher wasn't clear about me, he only set up Pink Female and Blue Man for me, while in the novel, for Ava and Elmer, teacher set up thirty different monster with each their own set of advantage and powers.

Anyway, in the center of the central region was the place where those three Nexus members were waiting for us.

The reason why I didn't tell this to the teacher was that in the novel, although it was difficult, in the end, the S Class was able to defeat these three Nexus members and gain experience fighting against high-ranking humans, which proved beneficial for them.

Not to mention, the teacher had to go and find the Divine Race remains, which were more important than anything else.
