Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

In an unknown mansion somewhere in Outer Bank X…

"Sir, we noticed an abnormality in one of the dungeons today." (Butler)

"Oh? And what happened?"

The butler observed the disinterested look on the man in front of him and continued. "The E rank dungeon, [Frozen Wasteland], has suddenly gone from a risky assessment of moderate to low"

"Oh, so someone is doing my job for me while I'm busy with the C rank dungeon?"

"Yes sir...but the problem is, this change occurred in the span of 2 hours"

As soon as the butler finished these words, the eyes of the man he was talking to flashed. "Who was it? A team or a Ranker that just appeared?"

"We don't know Sir, we're currently checking." Butler

"Good, let me know as soon as you find out. Are the girls ready?" The man's attention quickly moved to the floor above him where he could feel some movements.

"Yes Sir"

"All newly awakened?"

"Yes Sir…"

"Good, don't bother me for the next hour."

The butler in a clad black suit watched as the man climbed the stairs. His major worry right now was the fact that a dungeon had moved from a moderate risk level to low in a period of two hours. This required a dungeon to be cleared by a team of highly skilled hunters, or one very skilled Ranker, multiple times in those 2 hours

I was hesitating on as it had only been 2 days since I was registered as an F rank hunter. Heads will definitely be turned my way if I jump ranks this quickly. I still didn't feel comfortable enough to parade myself as someone strong when
