"And this is what happened," Ray concluded as he finally finished narrating everything.

"Hmmm… What about your bloodline? Do you feel different?" Noah asked, scratching his chin as he waited for Ray's answer.

"Although I don't feel much different, there are some things that have changed. Firstly, my overall strength seems to have increased and secondly, I can sense the bloodline flowing within myself and empowering me with each cycle it completes around my body. Other than that, I think I can also control the energy and do more with it if I try to concentrate and practice," Ray answered back.

Doing so, he then turned around and faced Emma. Right now, Emma sat on the ground with her head buried between her knees as she sobbed silently.

Seeing her like that, Ray decided to console her as he started walking towards her.

"Come on, don't cry. Everything will be fine," Ray walked to her and spoke calmly. The warm and welcoming smile on his face put Emma at ease as she stopped sobbing and asked,

"I am wor… worried about him. I won't be able to fo... forgive myself if anything happens to him. He is my ev… ev… everything, he is my only family left in this cruel world," Emma stuttered as she spoke and started sobbing once more.

"It will be okay, don't cry, please. If not for us, then for Sirius. Please don't cry. What would he think if he found out that instead of healing him, you were sitting on a stone slab and crying with your head between your knees," Ray said as he tried to console her.

Right now, Ray knew that Emma had it worse and for Ray; it was bad news since she was their compass and if she wasn't in her right mind, then the whole team would be doomed.

Therefore, Ray tried his best to calm her down. However, there was no luck as she kept on crying. Sometimes she blamed herself, while other times it was either Ray or the heavens themselves. She just blurted out what came to her mind and that too without the care of the world.

"Might as well use that potion now. Though, I was saving it for emergencies," Ray muttered as he accessed his inventory to search for a specific potion.

Searching for a while, he found the potion. The potion was light green in color while the bottle had a small label pasted on it. The name written on the label was,

[Perfect Tier Healing Potion],

[Description:- Just as the name suggests, it is a healing potion at the perfect tier. The properties of this potion are as follows;

1- Can heal any injured person below or at the Perfect Tier of The Mortal Realm.

2- Using this potion, the person on whom it is used will be healed fully regardless of the injury suffered (i.e:- Can even fully heal a person on the verge of death)

3- The potion is useless if used on someone with a natural/generic disorder]

Ray read the description as he felt his heart bleed. This potion had cost him a pretty penny back then and it wasn't easy finding it too.

However, Ray didn't hesitate as he walked over to Sirius. Walking over to him, he bent down, opened his mouth, and poured the potion inside his mouth.

Then he took a few steps back as he turned to Emma and spoke,

"I have fed him an ultra-high-quality healing potion. Hence, he will be back to normal soon. Therefore, please stop crying," Ray said and then turned to others as he asked, "And will someone please tell me what calamity happened that left you all in such a condition?" Ray inquired calmly.

Although his voice was calm and he looked serene. Everyone knew that inside, Ray was not calm at all and that within, there was a raging tsunami ready to erupt at any moment.

"Gulp… It's just that there were too many goblins and we couldn't handle them at all," Tim gulped and spoke, hesitating to speak; he tried to dodge the bullet by being as concise as possible.

"Okay, I understand," Ray nodded in understanding as he crossed his arms and started tapping his feet on the ground.

After staying in the same pose for a few seconds, Ray smirked evilly as he spoke,

"I guess I don't have any other choice, I will have to personally train you all after this ends," Saying this, Ray turned around, walked to a dark corner, and sat down as he started meditating, leaving behind a group of teenagers with faces full of fear as their blood had run cold after hearing what Ray said.

"We are doomed," Elina thought as she massaged her arms in fear. She still remembered how much Ray had trained them, it was to the point that they didn't have enough strength to at least walk back to their room.

However, it was not only Elina but everyone else too as even the new members had an idea of cruel Ray could be.

With everyone scared to the point that they would piss their pants at any moment, Ray was currently thinking of a strategy to clear the last two floors.

Meanwhile,

In Another Dungeon Instance,

"Thudd"

Nia fell to the ground as she saw her teammates being teleported out of the dungeon one by one.

"Thump.." Suddenly, a hammer landed on her and she was also teleported from the dungeon.

"Huh! What happened," Nia woke up in a panic. Her voice was hoarse and fear was evident on her face. Looking at her, she seemed completely different from her older self who was confident, aggressive, and proud.

But right now, she was scared, insecure, and above all, looked lowly. Her actions, demeanor, and everything were different to the point that she seemed like another person altogether.

"Where am I?" looking at her hands, she muttered as she asked herself, "What happened back then," She questioned herself as a series of images flashed through her mind.

The images were of the whole team reaching the eighth floor in full confidence. However, just as they entered the floor, goblins ambushed them from every direction possible.

Despite that, they held off the goblins and protected themselves but that was only the start as just as they were about to rest and replenish their energy, another horde of goblins appeared and ambushed them.

This time, the goblins were even stronger than before while their numbers had also increased, and that was just the start as, after that horde, many more followed.

These endless hordes of goblins were why the whole team was defeated so easily and also why Nia was overwhelmed. However, that wasn't it as the most important reason was something else.

It was the elimination of Zest as he was the first person to be teleported after being heavily injured.

As for how he was injured? Well, it was because he jumped in to save Nia and took a heavy blow to his chest.

Therefore, not only did the team suffer a heavy blow but with his elimination, Nia also felt worried for him and felt guilty for it. Hence, it caused a drop in her attention that led to her making various mistakes.

Thus, with all of these problems combined together, the whole team suffered and everyone was eliminated from the test one by one with Nia being the last.

Thinking of everything, Nia felt more depressed than ever as she felt a crisis looming over her head.

"I failed the test and not only that, but I also failed as a team leader. What will father think of me when he would hear about it? I am sure he would be disappointed with me," Nia thought, her thoughts negative as she kept blaming herself for everything that happened in the dungeon.

While Nia was sitting in her place and blaming herself for failing the test and being a disgrace to the family,

"Creaaak,"

The door opened as a man entered the medical room. The man was around 6ft tall with dirty blonde hair that was neatly combed back. The man's had the same eye color as Nia as his pupils were also of golden color.

Other than that, the man exuded natural brilliance as the world seemed to shine around him. Then, with a smile on his face, the man approached Nia's bed as he looked at her tenderly and spoke,

"What is my darling worried about? Are you feeling okay?" The man asked, his eyes filled with affection as he stroked her head lovingly.

"Dad! You are here?" Nia looked up as she asked, tears welling up in her eyes as she felt miserable.

"Daddy is here sweety, now you don't need to worry about anything. Daddy will fix everything. You just rest," The man said as he stroked her head and then turned around. Heading towards the door, the man turned once as he spoke,

"Also, I am impressed by your performance. It was extraordinary how you led the team so far. If it were anyone else, they might have lost on the fifth floor. Also, don't worry about failing the test, you have passed it," The man said and left.

On the other hand, Nia felt relieved when she hear what her father had to say.

"Thankfully," She muttered, placing her hand over her chest; she thought of something as exhaustion overtook her and she fell back into a deep sleep.
