" ..... "
" *Pfffttt* Hahahahahahahaha"
When King Qin's descendant appeared once again in the waiting room, the big failed mark on his forehead didn't go unnoticeable.
It was so flashy that even the first thing the others noticed was the failed mark.
" Hahahahaha, that marks really suit you, you know! May I know here do you get that mark?"
Second Nobunaga didn't wait anymore and started mocking King Qin's descendant. For him, who always treated King Qin's descendant as a rival for life, King Qin's descendant's failure was surely a thing worth celebrating.
The thing got even worse when Dokkaebi lord from Korea also joined to mock King Qin's descendant.
" Hahahaha, Looking at the amount of time you spend there, it didn't seem that you were able to solve any monster. Don't tell me that you were sent back here without being able to do anything!"
The other awakeners only looked at each other, but they decided to not join in the fun and mock King Qin's descendant.
They didn't want to make enemies, and if they could, they really wanted to know what was happening inside.
" You know, if I were you, I would be very ashamed of myself if I were to have that big failed mark on my forehead. I would rather say Dattebayo at the end of my words rather than have that silly tattoo in my head."
" Plus one hahaha. Me too; I would rather have my name changed into BlackpinkBlinks rather than having that weird tattoo on my forehead."
Dokkaebi lord and Second Nobunaga continuously mocked King Qin's descendant and laughed with each other like an old friends.
However, King Qin's descendant didn't respond and only had a sneer at his face.
" Humph, then I'll be waiting for you too to fulfill your vow."
King Qin's descendant knew that his situation would be disadvantaged against the two no matter what he said. So rather than continue to shame himself, he decided to stay silent and watched the play uphold."
" Bah, just a coward. Next is my turn! Hurry up and bring me there!"
Seeing that King Qin's descendant didn't reply to their mocking, Second Nobunaga and Dokkaebi Lord quickly lost their interest.
Based on the ranking, Second Nobunaga should be next after King Qin's descendant. So instead of staying here any longer, he decided to urge the system to transport him to the Dungeon.
[ DING!!! The second challenger, Second Nobunaga, are you ready?]
" Yes!"
Just like before, the white lights came to envelop Second Nobunaga's figure, and the next thing he knew, he had disappeared from the waiting room and transported into the Dungeon room.
- 30 Minutes later. -
" Geez, why is he taking so long dattebayo! What do you think he is doing, BlackpinkBlinks?"
Inside the waiting room, Second Nobunaga's figure has already returned.
Currently, it was already the fifth challenger turn, and there were four people with a big failed mark on the forehead.
King Qin's descendants, Second Nobunaga, Dokkaebi lord, and Arthur.
Wait, no...
There was no Dokkaebi Lord anymore.
The name of Dokkaebi lord has long been gone from the ranking list, and instead, it was replaced by BlackpinkBlinks.
" Bah, stop calling me BlackpinkBlinks, I'm not.."
" But your name certainly said BlackpinkBlinks!"
King Qin's descendant suddenly interjected and made Dokkaebi Lord who was renamed to BlackpinkBlinks's face become furious.
" Fuck off, King Qin's descendant! Do you think the great Dokkaebi lord is afraid of making trouble with you?"
" Hehe, I certainly wanted to see whether your strength is really as good as your mouth."
The two's aura surged and filled the whole waiting room.
Second Nobunaga and Arthur were able to watch this like normal. But for the other five who just came here because they were lucky to be chosen, the confrontation between King Qin's descendant and Blackpinkblinks was like a clash between behemoths to them.
Things escalated very quickly when Blackpinkblinks took out his natal weapon, the big mace.
King Qin's descendant also took out his King Qin's sword and was ready for a confrontation.
But at this moment, a white light suddenly came and broke the situation.
Gaius III, who had just failed the Dungeon, now appeared between King QIn's Descendant and Blackpinkblinks with a big failed mark on his forehead.
This failure of Gaius III signified that every one of the top 10 ranks has failed the Dungeon raid.
When they saw the white light appear, King Qin's descendant and Blackpinkblinks immediately returned to their sense. They called off their weapon and snorted.
" Humph, just think that you are lucky today. I'm not afraid of you and only don't want to make trouble here."
" Humph, the words should be applied to you."
The two knew that they should not continue to make trouble.
The system might have not punished them until now, but they didn't know whether it would continue to be the case if they were to make a big move here.
Second Nobunaga, who was watching from the sidelines, saw the play had ended and couldn't help but have a bit of dissatisfaction.
" Humph, just when I thought that the two would make troubles for themself dattebayo."
Now that the top 10 ranks have failed, everyone's attention was quickly shifted to the five lucky people.
The top ten awakeners looked at each other and could only shake their head helplessly.
They previously thought that they were very lucky to be here, now if they could, they really wanted to go out of this place as soon as possible.
If even the top ten ranker couldn't beat the Dungeon, how were they supposed to clear it?
Of course, there's no way they could know that all of the top ten rankers failed in the sample lace because of that stupid question.
Not long after Arthur returned to the waiting room, a notification came for the five lucky guys.
[ DNG!!! The top ten rankers have been failed. What a pity. Now for the five lucky guys, do you want to enter individually or as a team?]
The five lucky guys stared at each other eyes and gulped their saliva. Even though they knew that their chance of conquering this DDungeon was very slim, they still wanted to see the inside of the Dungeon that had made five of the top ten rankers fail miserably.
They nodded at each other as if they understood one and others thought, and one brave guy came forward to speak their decision.
" We decide to go as a team!"
[ DING!!! The lucky guys have decided to go as a team. Proceeding the transfer.]
Immediately, a white light enveloped the five guys, and their figures disappeared from the waiting room.
. . . . .
When the five lucky guys opened their eyes, they were already inside a weird dark room.
The room was very empty and had mysterious feelings around it.
" Hey, should we just go back?"
One of the five guys said.
It was human nature to be afraid of uncertainty, and somehow that nature was amplified multiple times when they came into this Dungeon.
" let's just explore a little bit further. If we couldn't find anything, then we will go back."
" I agree with that."
" Plus one!"
" Plus one!"
Unfortunately for him, the others didn't have the same idea.
Hearing the refusals of the others, the man that suggested to back down just now knew that he had no other choice.
He stayed in the back of the group in case if there were unexpected incidents, but he still followed the group.
The group of five began to search around the room, but other than the small round platform in the middle, they couldn't find anything else.
" Guys, what do you think about this?"
The five guys looked at each other.
Deep in their heart, they knew that this was their only clue. But no one wanted to say anything because they understood that the moment someone said something, he would immediately be tasked to go and investigate the small round platform.
The room was filled with a silent and awkward atmosphere until the guy that suggested to back down steeled his heart and decided to take that role.
" I'll do it. Since we have no other choice, then might as well let me do it."
Without waiting for the confirmation of the others, that guy came into the small round platform, and just like before, a face suddenly appeared on the wall.
[ Dear Challenger, Please answer the question correctly and honestly to proceed.]
[The first question, are you level twenty or lower?]
A question suddenly came from the mouth of the face and startled everyone.
Everyone thought that this might be a trap, but he didn't even care anymore for the guy who stepped in the small round platform.
He just wanted to get it off here as soon as possible, and he wouldn't care about answering it wrong.
Without much thinking, he steeled his heart and immediately said.
" Yes, my level is only at 17, and I'm lower than level 20."
Along with that words, everyone instantly fell into nervousness.
Some of them were very angry that the man decided to answer without consulting them, while the rest were shocked by the man's courage.
The face was silent for a while, and cold sweat started to gather around the forehead of the man.
He began to regret what he had just done. Why would he answer without thinking too much he thought.
But just when everyone thought that he had answered wrongly, another voice came from the face that made them feel dumbfounded.
[ DING!!! Correct answer. Please continue to proceed forward.]
With that, the face disappeared, and the wall separated into two, making a big path for them to proceed to the next room.
