An Extra’s POV

Training continued as usual the following day.

Each day, there would be a separate training session that only took up a few hours in the morning. Afterwards, the students would take a long break and go to the Grand Stage for their battle with Monsters.

That was the new arrangement for the effective growth of every student.

The training was for them to acclimate to their new Levels, which meant more advanced or prolonged use of their abilities.

And, the practical session was meant for the students to grind Levels.

Once they were done with everything, it would be around 1:00 PM, and so the students were free to spend the day as they wished.

Some spent it in the Town, exploring more in the market, or just taking strolls around.

Others chose to remain in their rooms or enjoy the grandeur of the Royal Capital.

Some spent it training and trying to better themselves.

There was one that spent her time in the Library.

However, out of all the twenty-eight students, one existed who didn't fit into any of these boxes.

He indeed left for town, but he didn't do so to hang around.

No… his goal was different.

"Hehehe… hehehehe… hahahahaha!!!"

A young man in a dark cloak and black mask that resembled a skull was standing at the entrance of a cave-like construction.

There was no one present, so the area was deserted.

"I'm finally back here…" His voice hummed as he gave a slight smirk underneath his mask.

Thanks to the suspicion that a dangerous monster was lurking around in the Royal Dungeon, the Royal Council ceased all mining activities within the Dungeon.

With Mining temporarily halted, processing and refining soon followed.

Before long, the once bustling Royal Dungeon grounds had become deserted—almost in an eerie manner.
