Chapter 278: A GOLDEN GAZE AND A CHARMING SMILE

The Adventurers' Guild was never this crowded.

On any other day, the hall would be filled with small parties of mercenaries looking for commissions, merchants hiring escorts, or fresh recruits eager to sign up. But today, it was chaos. The entire guild buzzed with voices—hardened veterans, rising elites, and desperate newcomers, all cramming the main hall in hopes of securing a spot in the Leviathan's Abyss Raid.

The Leviathan's Abyss was one of the most infamous dungeons in Lysora County, opening at set intervals throughout the year. But despite the countless expeditions into its depths, no one had ever conquered it.

The reason? No one had ever found the dungeon boss.

Each time the abyss opened, it unleashed monstrous horrors—beasts of shifting shadows, abyssal serpents, and eldritch abominations with no names. Yet, without a confirmed boss, the dungeon remained incomplete, forever resetting when the time limit expired.
