On the other hand, Adrian and his team were taking care of the third goblin wave, that appeared in the morning. They were all tired but still pushed forward in the hope of finding an exit.
Suddenly, Adrian received a notification from the system that made his already irritated expression dark.

Adrian looked around in a daze to see when and who killed the Goblin leader. However, all the students were fighting normal [E-] Rank goblins.
He was sure all the students followed behind them and also he didn't miss any higher Rank Goblins up until now. So, how was it possible for anyone else to kill the Goblin leader?
Adrian turned his head back, he could see that many students were busy fighting the goblins.
Emma and Isabella are working together same goes for Evelyn and Lyra. Adrian also sees that Noah is with Kael and Elera.
As for Aric, he was fighting beside Adrian himself.
'So who else is missing...?'
Adrian focuses on his brain more and soon enough he finds the missing student.
It was Lucas. He was with them at the start but without him knowing he left them and walked a different path.
'so is he the one who killed the goblin leader?'
But the goblin leader must be very strong so killing someone that much strong must be very hard if you are alone.
"So I was right, something is going on between you and Lucas, right?"
Evelyn's foot stumbled when she heard what Lyra said, her face started to blush as she glared at Lyra.
"Nothing is going on between me and him."
"Yeah, like I ever believe that."
"I'm telling the truth! " Evelyn couldn't help but exclaim. She took a deep breath and answered Lyra again but this time there was no blush on her face.
"Nothing is going on between me and Lucas really, it's just that since he came here at the Nova Academy he has been like the same person I have known before we know our potential limit."
At that, Evlyn's mood darkened as she started to remember some dark memory she wanted to forget but even so, she continued to talk.
"He has been cheerful, he is not depressed anymore, Like before he always makes some funny faces," Evelyn said as she remembered when Lucas tried to compare his face with Adrian's and Aric's.
"But.." Evelyn paused, she did not how to continue this.
"But what?" Lyra asked, in a confused tone.
"It's true that since he came here, he has gotten into his old self but he is already been in a dangerous situation where one mistake could cost his life..." At that Evelyn stops, Lyra doesn't need to continue to understand what she is trying to say.
Evelyn was talking about a recent incident.
Evelyn took a deep breath and said,
"I'm just worried, nothing more and for the last time nothing is going on between me and Lucas."
"I see, Evelyn one last question. Will you forgive him, For what he did in the past?"
In those words of Lyra, Evelyn felt deep anger and sadness but she managed to hide them and answer Lyra.
"Maybe not until he says sorry." after saying that both Lyra and Evelyn walk in silence as they walk toward the light.
Adrian and his team moved toward the light first, because they were in front. Not many students stopped them because if there was any danger outside, it was better for someone else to experience it first. Those students just slowly followed behind them.
After a while, Adrian and hand is team saw where the light originated from.
In front of them was a large open area filled with stones of different sizes. At the far end of the open space, there was a huge cave where the light was coming from. It was the same open area where Lucas and Sunny appeared before them.
A [ E] rank Goblin warrior corpse was lying there, Adrian was sure this was a dungeon boss.
Adrian turned his gaze to a little left and found two students walking toward them, it was Lucas and Sunny.
