An Extra’s POV

The Royal Dungeon.

It was one of the 9 Great Dungeons, popularly known by many as a property of the United Human Alliance.

The 9 Great Dungeons were spread out throughout the four Continents, and out of all of them, the Royal Dungeon was the only one remotely close to proper civilization.

No one in their right mind would build a city so close to a Dungeon, considering the dangers associated with it.

However, the Royal Dungeon was an exception.

It was sealed from the outside by a special seal, preventing anything within from escaping.

The difficulty of the Royal Dungeon was also considered to be one of the lowest.

The upper floors had weak to no monsters at all, and the lower one got in exploring the Dungeon, the higher the chances of encountering more powerful creatures.

Since Monsters were the major thing that Dungeons were known for, unenlightened people were likely to write off the Royal Dungeon.

However, it was good for one more reason.

The Minerals!

The Royal Dungeon was very rich in minerals and materials. The Mana Particles that filled the place coalesced to form Mana Crystals and other precious minerals that the Nation coveted.

As a result, the Royal Dungeon was a treasure that was well-coveted.

'I'm going to check it out today!' Rey told himself with clenched fists of determination.

This was currently his fifteenth day in this world, and he had gotten immensely sick of the training regiment his Beta Group were subjected to.

Of course, the requirements had already gotten higher, and the training had become more rigorous, but he had never been so bored in all his life.

'I've been putting it off for too long because of my preparations, but I think I'm finally ready.'

Rey purposed within himself to check the place out after class.

'While everyone is returning to their rooms, I'll go to the Dungeon.'

"Faster! You can do it! Faster push-ups!" A voice suddenly pierced his ears, and he realized he was still in the second of 100 pushups.

He could see a bunch of people around him giving out, so Rey also pretended to be exhausted.

His arms became all wobbly, and he began to make heavy breaths.
