Two archers shot arrows from the balcony, while four warriors charged forward. The cadet at the core of this ambush was Rachel. She entrusted Yi Jiyoon and Yoo Yeonha to the other three warriors and dealt with Chae Nayun herself.

As Chae Nayun was a beginner who only just recently switched to a sword, Rachel was confident in her ability to defeat Chae Nayun.

"Dammit...."

On the other hand, Chae Nayun clenched her teeth as she exchanged blows with Rachel. She could feel the difference in their skill and experience.

Every time she swung her sword once, Rachel swung her rapier twice. Furthermore, Rachel easily parried attacks she couldn't parry.

It wasn't that there were distractions. Other than Rachel, everyone was focused on dealing with Yi Jiyoon and Yoo Yeonha. As a result, Chae Nayun and Rachel were having a purely one-on-one battle.

Clang! Clang!

Every time Chae Nayun's sword clashed with Rachel's rapier, Chae Nayun felt like her hands were being torn apart.

As expected, Rachel was an expert who carried immense strength in her thin rapier.

The only thing Chae Nayun could do was to block her attacks.

"Goddammit—!"

However, Chae Nayun didn't want to lose.

At the very least, she didn't want to lose to Rachel.

Her desire to win and unyielding spirit led to an incredible eruption of magic power.

Chae Nayun's magic power exploded, soaring high and gathering around her sword. Her magic power formed a giant sword that was both long and wide.

"...!"

The vicious yet imposing appearance of the giant sword made Rachel flinch.

Chae Nayun swung this giant sword with all her strength.

However, a large movement left room for openings.

Rachel didn't receive her attack, instead, she rolled to the side and dodged. As a result, Chae Nayun's sword only hit the ground.

Immediately afterward, something Rachel didn't expect happened.

KOONG!

Struck with Chae Nayun's sword, the floor collapsed.

Rachel, who had rolled to the side to avoid Chae Nayun's attack, fell to the next level without having a chance to be surprised.

Thud.

After landing on the fourth floor, Rachel stared at the hole above her as she felt pain on her waist. Was the floor supposed to collapse that easily?

"Where did you go!?

A lion-like roar rang out from above. Rachel quickly got up. She wanted to return to the battlefield as quickly as possible. Her teammates were too weak to contend with Yoo Yeonha and Chae Nayun without her...

But at that moment, someone appeared in front of her.

Rachel turned stiff.

Wearing a white cadet uniform, which was the symbol of Team White, he held up his sword.

It was Kim Suho.

He had defeated Shin Jonghak on the fifth floor and had climbed up to the fourth floor.

Rachel bit her lips.

From the looks of it, Kim Suho had no intention of going easy. The moment he confirmed that Rachel was in Team Black, he charged toward her. Rachel received his sword with her rapier.
