Tomer's boldness attracted the attention of the entire class.

Rachel stared at Tomer with puzzled eyes, but Tomer even reached her hand out to Rachel.

Looking back and forth between them, I couldn't help but wonder why it was Rachel.

Within the Djinn society, Wicked had a similar position to mercenaries. They accepted money to carry out missions. Considering that Tomer approached Rachel, it was likely that Lancaster was the mastermind behind the mission Tomer received.

"I'll think about it. There's still a lot of time left."

Rachel sent Tomer back for now. Then, she checked her smartwatch. It seemed she saw my message as her eyes widened.

She glanced at me and our eyes met.

Sssk.

Rachel's head unnaturally turned to the window. She was trying to pretend that she wasn't trying to look at me.

In any case, it seemed getting two offers made her happy as the corners of her mouth curled into a smile.

I turned back around and faced the front of the class.

After about 10 minutes of waiting, she gave me a reply.

[I'll think about it.]

I hoped she would pick me since we already had somewhat of a friendship.

Now, I stopped thinking about the team challenge and focused on the more important issue.

I stared at Kim Suho's back.

Summer break had passed, so it was almost time.

Currently, Kim Suho should be preparing to tackle a Dungeon. Just like protagonists of novels often did, he was planning to do it solo.

However, most Dungeons couldn't be soloed unless the challenger was uncharacteristically powerful or the Dungeon was uncharacteristically weak.

However, the Dungeon Kim Suho was planning on conquering was an exception. It was a matter of suitability.

This Dungeon was small, with weak minions but a powerful boss. This boss was the Swordsman of Destruction, a monster that even a high-intermediate rank Hero would find difficult to handle.

Right, he was a swordsman.

Swordsman and a Sword Saint.

Even Evandel could easily answer which of the two would win.

The Sword Saint's magic power would easily shatter the swordsman's sword, and only a single tree branch would be left upon the swordsman's defeat.

This branch was Kim Suho's weapon.

Its divine name was Misteltein, also known as the god-slaying branch.

It was a generic weapon of legends. It was a branch in some versions, but a sword or a spear in others. In the end, I set its unawakened form as a branch, so that it would become more sword-like as it awakened.

However, because of its ordinary appearance, Kim Suho didn't know what it was at first.

What changed this ordinary appearance was the Butterfly Seedling Dust. The Butterfly Seedling Dust would allow the ordinary branch to undergo its first awakening, turning the ordinary branch into a black branch.

It was comical how powerful monsters like King Ogres and Sea Kings were beaten to death with a branch. Thinking back to the Kim Suho of my novel, I couldn't help but chuckle.
