The system’s notification flashed in Dexter’s mind as he lay on his bed that night, his body aching from the clash with Dead Skull. Though the victory should have felt satisfying, it only made him restless. The stakes were getting higher, and Dead Skull’s last words echoed in his thoughts: "This isn’t over."He stared at the ceiling, lost in thought until a familiar ping rang through his mind.[New Mission: Enter the Abyssal Rift.][Objective: Clear the first floor and retrieve the Core Fragment.][Difficulty: Grade A+][Recommended: Party of 5 or more.][Time Limit: 48 hours.]Dexter groaned. “An A+ grade mission?” he whispered, running a hand through his hair.He sat up, feeling the weight of the task. The system didn’t care that he was still recovering. And this time, it was clear: the danger was real.---The next morning, Dexter headed out, trying to act like everything was normal. He went to school, blending in with the crowds. But as soon as he stepped into the hallway, trouble

Dexter and Henry moved cautiously through the campus, the tension from their narrow escape still lingering in the air. As they approached the main building, Dexter kept his senses heightened, using his Abyssal Awareness skill to scan for any signs of danger.The sun hung high in the sky, casting long shadows across the courtyard. Students laughed and chatted, seemingly oblivious to the brewing storm that Dexter and Henry had just uncovered. They slipped inside the main building, deciding to head to the library—a quiet place where they could plan their next move.The library was vast, filled with rows of ancient tomes and newer texts alike. The scent of old paper and leather filled the air, creating an atmosphere of calm that Dexter desperately needed. They found a secluded corner, sitting at a table where they could speak without being overheard.“Okay,” Dexter said, leaning in closer to Henry. “We need to gather more intel on those awakeners. If they’re planning something big, we hav

Dexter and his friends pressed forward, the energy of their determination electrifying the air around them. The fight was chaos incarnate, filled with shouts, flashes of magic, and the clash of weapons. Dexter could feel the weight of his mission bearing down on him, but he also felt an undeniable rush—the thrill of combat and the fire of his allies fighting beside him.“Keep pushing!” Dexter shouted, dodging another incoming spell from one of the opposing awakeners. He ducked low, rolled to the side, and sprang back up, aiming for the girl with red hair who was orchestrating the chaos.“Henry! Cover me!” he called out as he darted forward.“On it!” Henry responded, channeling his energy into a powerful blast that sent two of their adversaries stumbling back. The momentary distraction provided Dexter with the opening he needed.The red-haired girl turned to face him, a wicked smile spreading across her face. “You think you can take me down? I’ll crush you!” she taunted, raising her ha

“Impossible!” Shadowfang roared, his eyes wide with disbelief as the light pushed through the darkness, gaining ground, illuminating the battlefield with a blinding brilliance. Dexter felt the power of their combined resolve amplifying within him as he surged forward, urging his friends to push harder.“Don’t stop! Keep it going!” Dexter shouted, pouring everything he had into the attack. The light grew brighter, and the darkness began to falter, pushed back by the sheer force of their unity.As the magic pressed against Shadowfang, he struggled to maintain his grip on the darkness. “You… you think this will defeat me?” he growled, his voice filled with rage and disbelief. “I will not be vanquished by children!”“Together!” Dexter yelled, feeling the energy of his friends flowing through him. The brilliance of their light swirled around them, forming a dazzling vortex that seemed to devour the shadows.Finally, with one final burst of energy, the collective magic surged forward, crash

Dexter and his friends stood on the edge of a cliff, looking down at the sprawling valley below. The sun dipped low in the sky, casting an orange hue over the horizon. Despite their recent victory against Obsidian, the weight of the fight still lingered in the air, reminding them of the challenges that lay ahead.“Are we really ready for this?” one of the students, Mia, asked, her voice trembling slightly.“After everything we’ve faced, I’d say we’ve earned a bit of confidence,” Dexter replied, trying to mask his own uncertainty. “We’ve taken down two powerful enemies, and we’ll face whatever comes next together.”Henry nodded in agreement. “Right. Whatever this mission is, we’ve got each other’s backs. We’ve trained hard for this, and we’ve learned from our past battles.”As they discussed their next steps, the system pinged in Dexter’s mind, signaling a new mission had been assigned. “Hold on a second,” he said, his expression shifting as he opened the mission details in his mind.[
