Confused memories

After waking up confused about the situation she found herself in, Ninsun encountered a familiar landscape, but distorted: her city, the City of the Cross. The daylight seemed filtered, as if it were passing through a blurry lens. She got up and looked around, feeling a sense of disorientation. The tall buildings were blurred, as if they were being erased by an invisible hand. The emitted light was dull and didn't seem real. She looked to her right and saw a convenience store, whose letters were faded and almost illegible.

Kachisabi, noticing Ninsun's confusion, extended his hand to help her get up. Ninsun accepted his help and stood up, wanting to understand what was happening. Her mind was a mix of memories and forgetfulness, and she needed answers.

Ninsun decided to ask Kachisabi what was happening, but before she could even ask, Ninsun felt strong headaches and memories began to overwhelm her mind. She remembered that the place she was in was the 100th floor, but it was different, since she remembered it being just an empty place with only a building. The confusion was palpable, and Ninsun needed help to untangle her memories.

- What the hell is going on? I remembered some things, but there's still something missing. I remember being on the 5th floor right now.

- You really were, but not in reality. I think you don't remember, but on the third day here, you started complaining a lot about having nothing to do here.

- I don't remember, but I don't think it's hard to get bored here. I don't know how you endured staying here for 800 years.

Ninsun became pensive about what Kachisabi said for a moment, since she had never noticed the Boss's appearance. Despite being very old, he appeared to be a normal human, with an age between 16 and 18, and wore common clothes: a hoodie, shorts, and red sneakers. He also had an extraordinary beauty, surpassing any celebrity she had ever seen. The only unusual thing was his white hair, which didn't seem natural.

Lost in thought, Kachisabi called Ninsun's attention with a soft and calming voice.

- Do you want to know the rest or not?

- Ah! Yes, continue.

- Well, you said you were bored, so I suggested you do some basic training, just to pass the time.

- So, what happened on the 5th floor wasn't real? But I remember it happening.

- Do you really remember killing the monster?

- Yes! And I was incredible too.

- Are you sure?

Kachisabi had a skeptical expression.

- Well... Now that you mentioned it...

Ninsun remembered what really happened. She remembered doing everything the same way, dodging and circling the monster with gravity. Everything she did before was the same, except for one thing: she hadn't tied a rope to her dagger. And the moment she tripped while fleeing, when she was falling at high speed and hit the ground, the monster was heading towards her. She knew she was going to die. The monster that was face-to-face with her, when she thought she was going to be hit, split into geometric parts, and its pieces remained in the air. When she looked to her side, she saw a bright light. Before the monster's parts were reduced to ashes, relieved to be saved, she stood up to thank her rescuers. But she didn't expect to meet her rescuers: Kairos and Arachne Embera, two very famous adventurers.

Kairos was someone who had a reputation for being very strong, thanks to his power to make someone's body split into various geometric shapes. His appearance was normal, with black hair parted in the middle, moderate dark circles under his light brown eyes, and a scar on both cheeks. He wore typical black magician attire.

Arachne had long hair that shone with an intense red color. In a dark environment, the shine of her hair illuminated like a torch. Her eyes were red, and the sclera of her right eye was a barely noticeable red. She always wore armor that, despite appearing simple, was Class A armor. Her abilities were hereditary, the power of fire, which, despite being common, was characterized as a [power] by the system, making it unique and stronger. Meanwhile, something characterized as [magic] was common and could be used by anyone.

Ninsun was thrilled to meet two people she
