"Calm down, gentlemen. The werewolf king who killed my father is not Jayden, Lua's father. I saw it with my own eyes.""Are you planning to defend her because you two are friends?" Greg still can't believe it.Fin sighed. "That's not it. It's pointless to fight over the past. Aren't our goals the same now? To get out of here.""No, Fin. I'd like to get the key to floor 301 and earn some extra cash." Sean muttered."Stop talking, sir," Fin said.Sean refused to comment. Despite the fact that he is Fin's owner, he is afraid of his human form."I want to go home. Mom is probably looking for me." Yuna whined."You shut up too," Rebecca said quietly."Lua, do you know what happened to Jayden? As far as I know, he didn't go to war." Fin turned to face Lua."I'm not sure. My parents, as I recall, hid me in a cave after we were chased by other werewolves. I'm not familiar with them. Buy, they definitely killed my parents.""Have you heard? There was most likely a schism in the Sirhaan clan at
Kinanti, like Patrick, looked down, as if she was hiding something. Zach was aware of his mother's feelings of guilt."What's the matter, Mom?"Kinanti simply shook her head, making no sound. She only bit her bottom lip."Because we are in the same situation as the residents of the simulation floor," Patrick explained after another sigh.Patrick's statement astounded everyone. They were silent for a while."What exactly do you mean? We've never encountered the Lord of Darkness." Greg shook his head, stunned."Right, that's impossible," Erica mumbled."Take a look, Pat!" Hans made a clapping motion with his hands. "We are more than just souls!""Yes, that's correct. Pat, maybe you're getting old." Another person stated."The king of darkness managed to take us before we could hide. Only Kinanti and I were still awake at the time.""Y-you knew, too?" Greg looked at Kinanti as if for the first time."I apologize. We both agreed to keep this a secret from you. We don't want you to be depr
"Mother-in-law?" Zach and Kinanti asked the question together."No, I mean my friend's mother," Serena admitted sheepishly."Queen! Come on, hurry up! They will not be able to keep the dimensional gate open for much longer!" Wystan was completely enraged."Fine! What about the players from generation zero? Can't we just take them?""That is not something we can do. This dimension exists outside of our elevator world. If we make a mistake, I'm afraid they won't be able to return to their original bodies.""It's fine, guys. We'll just have to wait for these kids to make it," Patrick explained.Everyone gives each other hugs. One by one, new players exit the dimensional gate."Mom... Don't lose hope. Please wait for me."Kinanti nodded, her eyes moist. "Zach, take good care of yourself. I love you.""I love you even more, Mom." Zach gave Kinanti one last hug.Several administrators from the lower and upper floors had gathered outside the gate. There were new faces Zach had never met befor
When the floor administrator vanished, a vast prairie popped into view. Zach was in the middle of it all. The surrounding area appears to be a lush forest.A buzzing sound began. Based on the sound, there must be a swarm of mosquitoes on the way. Zach thought that he didn't need Lua just to catch mosquitoes.Zach approached the direction of the buzzing sound with confidence. Before the mosquitoes arrived. His steps, however, were quickly halted when he realized something was wrong."How come the sound is so loud from afar?"The buzzing of mosquitos grows louder. Swarms of mosquitos began to emerge from the surrounding forest. But not like the mosquitoes Zach had imagined."Crazy! Lua, get out!"Lua's wolf form let out a long yawn. Lua howled briefly before settling down beside Zach's feet."What exactly are you doing? Are you exhausted?"Lua gave a nod. She can't talk to Zach in his wolf form, but she can understand what he's saying."Lua, you can rest after this. Not right now. Take
Every day, the lovely spider girl walks through the wilderness. She's looking for a hidden hole she discovered years ago.She looked to the right and left to monitor the situation. Mossie transformed into her spider form and entered the hole after making sure no one was watching.Mossie was always pleased with what was beyond that hole. Why is this so? Her favorite snacks could be found in the meadows and forests.Mossie was surprised that morning because the mosquitoes were not present. Even though she openly killed and ate those creatures she thought were stupid, they usually didn't go anywhere.She faintly heard the buzzing of angry mosquitoes on their way somewhere. Mossie is following that sound. Until she came across a strange creature fighting with her snacks."You jerk! Someone is trying to steal my snacks." Mossie let out a growl.She was about to jump with her thread to that human when the mosquitoes returned to the forest. And the two-legged creature collapsed in the meadow
"Aunt Jenna!" exclaimed another spider, addressing Mossie's mother."Don't yell! I'm not yet deaf! What's the problem?" Jenna stated."Auntie, that's terrible! The King is on his way!!!""King? What brings him here?" Jenna paused for a moment.The spider mother's large body leaps up towards the small hole with agility. She peeked through the hole. Her mouth was open wide."Gosh! Mossie! Hide your food! The King has arrived!"'Who is the King? Are they referring to administrators?'Zach pushed his cocoon-like body. He needed to get out of there and ask for help from the administrator."What are you doing?" Mossie yelled.Mossie sprays cobwebs over Zach and Lua's heads. Leaving only their eyes and nostrils exposed. Zach tried to scream, but all that came out was a growl."Shut up! I'll kill you right now if you scream!" Mossie made a threat."Mossie, put them back where they belong!" Jenna exploded."No, Mom!""Don't argue! It's possible that these two creatures belong to our king! You d
"Player 101! What happened to you?" Mali, the floor administrator, appeared behind Zach.Zach looked up but couldn't move. He only gave Mali a pitiful look."Mmm... Mmm... Hummm..."'Please release me!'"What exactly is it?" Mali enquired.Mali smelled his hand after touching the spider thread. His face twisted in disgust."Where have you been, Player 101?""Mmm... Humm...""That's right, I've got to get rid of this filthy thread first."Mali's right hand had transformed into an ant's hand. The shape on its own seems to be very weak. It can't possibly tear the spider's threads!"Mmm... Mmm... Mmm..."'Sir, hurry!'"Patience, Player 101."Mali transformed his hands into the hands of various insects. He tried several times but couldn't break the spider thread."Huumm... Mmm..."'Don't show off, sir!'Zach's eyes widened in annoyance. Mali chuckled playfully."I am the King of Insects, Player 101. Spiders are our primary enemies. They always manage to catch us off guard. We've even lost
"Please... Don't close that hole." Zach begged."It's none of your business, Player," Mali replied."I... I want to go back there."Zach clenched his fists tightly. He would have looked for his mother's and the generation zero players' bodies if he had known the spider's location was the world of darkness."You can't even beat a small spider. Do you want to give your life there?"Several administrators had heard about Zach and Generation Zero. Mali and Zeo are also included.They realized Zach wasn't just looking for something from the elevator world. But also to save his mother."You should go home and change your clothes first, Player." Zeo, who was unaware of the situation, chuckled.***Zach would not have left the world of elevators if it hadn't been for his slimy clothes. He is compelled to return to his home, with Lua in human form.Zach and Ben meet in front of the apartment. Unlike usual, Zach is unconcerned about Ben's deliberate approach to Lua."Oh, I'm so hungry," Ben exc
Zach tried to ignore King SJ's words, which still caught his interest. Now Zach and his friends face a final challenge.King SJ and Queen GM stand on the throne, which has suddenly appeared. While Petruk peeked through the volcanic crater.They are still not permitted to seek support from pets, as per previous regulations.Surprisingly, Drake, who loved to fight, remained silent as he watched the three humans preparing to fight.Three mountain-like creatures appeared one after the other. Their bodies are made of glowing lava rock, and their hair is made of pyroclastic flows.The three two-meter-tall creatures were wearing plant-based armor. It wasn't an ordinary plant because ordinary swords couldn't penetrate it.Their eyes glowed like magma. When it opens its mouth, hot clouds emerge that can melt any object.Although not as terrifying as Petruk's form, the three creatures are extremely powerful. Because King SJ and Queen GM created them."Are you guys ready?" King SJ asked."Ready!
"Dark Humans have always been arrogant like this." Petruk made a shaky motion with his head.Petruk's body pierced Dark Zach's body in an instant. The dark cloud fragmented into a million pieces. Like black fireworks against a bright sky."Shit! You're dead!" exclaimed Tora.However, the small pieces of the black cloud returned to their original shape. Fatter and fuller."Is that your only skill?" sneered Dark Zach.Dark Zach is not afraid of anything. Because nothing can hold the darkness except another, darker darkness."Ha ha ha... It's just a warm-up!" exclaimed Petruk.Mount Merapi's pyroclastic flows became increasingly visible. Petruk's body is growing in size. Dark Zach's body is outmatched.Dark Zach will not be outdone. He increased the amount of dark clouds to the maximum."Are they competing to see who is bigger? Should I ask Master Drake to come out?" Ray arched his brow."No!" yelled Sean.Too late! When Ray said, 'Master Drake, come out,' the dragon appeared immediately
"Hiya!!" shouted the white tiger man.A beam of light cut through the darkness an instant later. Dark Zach broke through the white tiger man's defenses. However, the white tiger man man managed to breach Dark Zach's defenses as well."You're great!" exclaimed Dark Zach. He cast a spell, and the darkness vanished in an instant."You're excellent too!" The white tiger man complimented him back.The spectators rubbed their eyes in response to the sudden light. They were taken aback by the sight in the middle of the battle arena.Dark Zach and the white tiger man man were severely injured all over. Their bodies were covered in blood."Your blood color is red. You're not a Dark Human," said the white tiger human male. Because Dark Humans do not produce red blood, but rather black."I thought your blood was white," Dark Zach sneered."Alright. Let's put a stop to this. You have potential, one of us might die if we keep fighting," said the white tiger man."No problem, I'll kill you!"'No!'
"I can't accept your request," the white tiger man said flatly."I'm putting my life in danger here. I should get the prize I want," Zach argued.The white tiger man sighed. "It's not that I don't want to. But I can't. I'm a mountain guardian. I can just leave here. However, if you want, I can assign my son to be your underling.""Dad, that's a bad idea. I don't like the unpleasant smell of tigers." Lua said quietly to Zach."But they're powerful, Lua. They should be able to support me in saving my mother," Zach said quietly as well.Lua took a step back after hearing Zach's explanation. After all, Zach makes all of the decisions. She will only continue supporting Zach in achieving his goals."In that case, I should've fought your son rather than you."The white tiger man asks, "Why? Are you afraid of me?""Of course... no. Give me something as a reward if I can beat you. Of course, your son as well." Zach grinned.A few moments later, one of Zach's eyes turned black. The white tiger m
"Jaka.""Ray."Before the fight began, those two musclemen bowed respectfully. They shook hands and took a step back."Start!" The white tiger man exclaimed.They dashed into the center at the same time. They put their hands up to shield their faces.Their movements are almost exactly the same. Ray immediately kicked Jaka in the stomach. With his arms crossed in front of him, Jaka quickly protected his stomach.Ray lowered his head slightly, then jabbed into Jaka's face quickly. Jaka deftly blocked his face with his palm.Ray made a rash first move because he didn't want to wait any longer. However, Jaka was able to deflect Ray's attack.Ray was mostly attacking, while the other guy was defending. Their battle was already fierce because they relied solely on physical strength.The tiger men yelled the names of their competitors. Zach and his group did the same.Ray substituted judo for attacks. Jaka was so used to Ray's fist movements that he didn't notice Ray had tackled his leg.How
Nothing happened on Earth for a week after Zach received the notification from the world of darkness. Each country is still working to repair damage in various locations. The world of elevators can help to alleviate the human burden.A number of young people, including police officers and soldiers, changed at the red elevator door. Before they could become players, they had to pass a test.Because of Zach's recommendation, Harris and Ben accepted right away. Serena was the one who was testing them at the time.And then the next game starts...Zach, Sean, and Ray were walking to the exam room. And, unexpectedly, Nine opened the door to floor -101 straight away."Are you sure we don't need to take the exam?"Nine gave a faint smile. "The trials here are almost identical to the struggles of the three of you on Earth.""Doesn't everyone, then, need exams?" Zach wanted to know."Of course, they must pass tests. You guys were lucky to be on the exam floor during such a commotion," Nine repl
"You two irritate me!" Zach snapped.Thick black smoke began to emerge from Zach's body, heading to Black's neck and choking him. Silver attempts an attack by launching an arrow, but Zach easily catches the arrow with thick black smoke.Black's body erupted in a hail of sharp black metallic thorns. Zach could not help but take a step back. However, Black does not attack Zach back. He just wants to defend himself.Meanwhile, Silver had already drawn his sword. But Black rushed in to stop him from attacking Zach."How did you get out of purification? And... those eyes of yours..." Black appeared befuddled."Dark, stop!" Zach yelled."Didn't you see they were trying to kill you? No, I mean, kill us. You moron!"Zach was talking to himself in a loud voice. Silver and Black exchanged puzzled looks. This is because Dark Humans rarely reveal the original figure of the body owner."I'm sorry, gentlemen. I'm not sure why you'd want to harm me. B-"Zach was interrupted by Black. "I have no inte
"Urgh!"Zach's mouth sprayed blood, as did the arrow that pierced his stomach. He was curled up on the ground, clutching his stomach.The arrow had returned to attack him not far up. This time, the arrow was aimed right at his heart.Fortunately, Zach's hand quickly caught the arrow. However, the wound in his stomach weakened him. His grip on the arrow shook violently."S-stop....""I will not stop until you summon your darkness power," Silver said.'See... Now you believe me, don't you? He's after you,' Dark Zach chuckled.'Shut up and go out! I almost died!' Zach screamed in his heart.'No. I'm not going anywhere. I'm sure he'll use my abilities once I appear.' Dark Zach was certain of his words.'However, I could die. You, too, can perish.' Zach pleaded.There was silence... no response.'Dark! Please hurry... I can't take it any longer,' Zach begged.'You can grow stronger if you can get out of this situation, Zach. I'm heading to bed. Don't bother me!' Zach the Dark insisted.Sil
"Is there anything else?" asked Zach.Silver takes Zach to several locations where Dark Humam can be found. Zach had defeated sixteen Dark Humans using his strength and the diamond sword."Yes," Silver replied curtly.Silver is growing tired of waiting for Dark Zach to appear. Zach refuses to use the power of darkness for some reason. Silver was also unable to directly ask Dark Zach. Because Dark Zach would never appear in front of the official elevators, he thought.'Was it because I'm here that he didn't show up? No... I was far enough away when Zach was fighting the dark humans,' Silver reasoned."Why am I the only one fighting against the dark humans, sir?" Zach wondered."The others are all busy."Zach cocked his head. He was also confused by Silver's change in demeanor. Silver always smiled at first. But he isn't smiling anymore. He just doesn't want to look at Zach.'He has negative thoughts about you,' said Dark Zach.'Impossible. He's well-known in the world of elevators.' Z
