Ning, Hi-Ah, and Jung-Hee left for their work.
"Sister Ely said that we will be able to fly too in the future, is that true?" Jung-Hee asked.
"Hmm, how strong are you guys right now?" Ning asked as he checked their cultivation bases. "Oh right, you didn't get a chance to cultivate, did you? Once you cultivate to Foundation establishment realm, you should be able to hover around and move slowly. To actually fly around you will have to be in the Core Formation realm."
"And… how long is that going to take us?" Jung-Hee asked.
Ning thought for a moment. "If you cultivated all night long, you should be able to reach there within the week, maybe even faster since your body is strong enough to handle the changes already," he said.
The two siblings couldn't help but be happy when they heard about it.
"By the way, brother. Why did you join the White Devil guild?" Jung-Hee asked. "That doesn't make sense to me at all."
"It doesn't?" Ning asked. "What? Did you expect me to join another guild? I'm pretty sure the White Devil guild is the best one."
"It is," Hi-Ah said. "But I don't think that's what he's asking. He wants to know why you didn't open your own guild. With your ability, people would flock to you far faster and your guild would be one of the best in no time."
Ning chuckled a bit when he heard that. "I have no desire to start a guild. In fact, doing so would work against what I'm planning," he said.
"Against what you're planning?" Hi-Ah asked curiously.
Ning wondered if he could answer the two of them or not. One of the very unfortunate results of leaving behind a clone was that he could no longer sense the constellations when they were focusing on him. As a result, he didn't find it wise to speak freely every word in his mind.
"Well, I can't go into the specifics, but the goal of my plan is to rid of the dungeons on earth so humanity no longer has to live in fear every day," Ning said. "If I were to start a guild, I would have to find dungeons, make plans to keep the dungeon healthy for a long time, and make use of it, which ultimately isn't what I want. I don't want to keep the dungeons here," he said.
"I see," Hi-Ah said. "But are the dungeons really that bad? They provide us with mana stones and a lot of various rare ores that have been greatly useful."
Ning sighed when he heard that. "And what if that leads to another dungeon break?" he asked.
"Well," Hi-Ah hesitated. "That would be horrible. But we have fighters who can protect us this time around, so I don't think the casualties would be as high as last time."
"What if the monsters in the dungeon break range from E-rank all the way beyond SSS-ranks? Is that still okay?" he asked.
"What?" Jung-Hee exclaimed out loud. "There are monsters out there beyond SSS-rank?"
"Yes," Ning said. "The dungeons are too low level for that, but once the SSS-rank dungeons appear, you will see. Although, it might be very late by then."
The two showed a bit of fear on their faces as they understood the severity of the situation. "I see," Hi-Ah said. "Then we must destroy the dungeons very soon."
"Yes," Ning said. "But that's not very easy either."
"Why not?" she asked.
"Well… there are things that don't want you to interfere with those," Ning said. "You will find every Apostle against the idea of destroying a dungeon. They will use excuses like the ones you just did for keeping them around, but in truth, they are doing what they have been ordered to do."
Hi-Ah tried to say something, but Ning interrupted her. "Don't speak about it." He said. "Never speak about it with anyone. There are forces here that I won't be able to save you against, not yet. Keep your thoughts to yourself."
Hi-Ah gulped down her words and put on a blank, but pale face as she continued driving through the highway on the way to the city.
"Man, I just wanted to work with the two of you, that's why I brought up the idea of starting a guild. I didn't think that…" Jung-Hee stopped speaking as well.
They arrived in the city and Hi-Ah dropped off Jung-Hee before taking Ning over to the guild.
Hi-Ah went to do her own thing, while Ning was led to a VIP room to wait out the minutes before the training was to begin.
He sat comfortably on the massive sofa, looking up the news on the TV that was inside the room. Just then, a headline popped up on the screen.
At the same time, his ring started buzzing, a sign that someone was calling him. He quickly checked and it was the director. He accepted the call.
"Is this about the new dungeon?" Ning asked as soon as he accepted the phone call.
"You know about it?" the director asked with a surprised look on his face.
"I'm watching the news right now," Ning said.
"Damn, the news outlets know already?" the director couldn't help but ask. However, he seemed to have gotten different news from the other side, so he quickly stopped talking.
The news anchors who were giving the normal news, immediately changed their state to put on a serious look to give the latest breaking news.
"We interrupt this segment to give you a breaking news that is coming to us from around the world. Many people have started noting the appearance of new dungeons all around the globe. These new dungeons seem to appear at random places, so we suggest all the people stay away from any you might come across and notify the authorities if you see one around your place."
Ning looked at the news segment with a slight awe on his face. "So that's your move, huh?" he thought. "That certainly will make things difficult going forward."
