Leon, the attentive father, was taking his daughter for a walk on the nearby streets from his home.
A truly peaceful atmosphere in the capital.
All the citizens were aware of the western continental expedition, but they only thought that it was limited to plundering the land they had managed to seize from the demon race alone.
None of them knew about the true events that had occurred in the western continent there, about the rampage of the tower, about the catastrophic monster explosion that came from the tower invasion.
“Ah, peace! If these citizens knew what was going on in the western continent, they could no longer laugh cheerfully like this.”
“Kakak is sneaky. Is it okay to keep such an important thing secret to the population, especially to his own wife? I feel sorry for Talia.”
Leon hunkers down on his brother's decision.
But she knew better that what she could do best was to support her brother's decision by keeping the continent safe during his brother's departure.
“I hope Alice and the others also carry out their duties well.”
“Alice dear, go home safely.”
Pinta Leon sincerely.

Meanwhile inside the tower, Helios and the party had quickly climbed up to the tenth level tower.
“So far it still goes easily huh, Your Highness.”
While creating a breeze through his magic to cool his hot body after facing the fire-type monsters on the previous floor, Doctor Minerva asked Helios.
“That's because we still face the monsters we often see in the monster forest.”
“For the next one based on the first hero note, it's minotaur right?”
“Yes, this should also be easy. But you still have to be careful.”
Helios immediately confirmed Albexus' question before continuing to lead his party deeper than the dungeon.
“Everything stops!”
Helios' command instantly looked on vigilantly ahead.
There was nothing in sight at all in front, nor did the members of his party realize any strangeness.
But the sensitive Helios knew something was ahead.
And sure enough, a moment later the minotaur with a stealth skill was about to hit Albexus.
Helios immediately pulled Albexus back, but instead it was Helios who was precisely pierced by the sharpness of the sword of the minotaur assassin.
Doctor Minerva swiftly fired two fireballs that immediately blew the head of the minotaur assassin.
Later, Helios' wounds were treated by Albexus.
But there is a weirdness.
There was some sort of black mucus in Helios' wound that blocked Albexus's recovery ability.
“Take it easy. This is not a fatal wound. We just continue the journey.”
“But Master! You should not underestimate the slightest wound.”
“I said I'm fine, Albert. No need to enlarge the problem.”
“But, Master..”.
“I'm fine.”
“This must be because the roots of the tower are getting stronger rooted in the Continent of Ifrak, Armsystemis, and Asium which increasingly erodes the existence of mana there so that the monsters evolve then stronger.”
“We can't let your guard down.”
“This is clearly different from the minotaur that we often face before.”
“That's why we shouldn't waste any more time in this tower expedition.”
“At least we reached the eleventh floor then defeated the ancient dragon.”
“On the record it is said that dragon heart can heal wounds caused by any curse.”
“It can definitely also treat this wound.”
“We just rested in relief after reaching the eleventh floor, the center suddenly wild monsters from the tower so that there is no longer a possibility of the monsters will run from the tower haphazardly.”
“After that we can finish the tower slowly.”
Thus Albert gave up and Helios and the party continued their journey.
Even Doctor Minerva was fooled by Helios' perfect acting.
Helios is not okay.
It's not just any curse, it's a dragon sword curse.

He is Ruvaliana who now lives outside the palace to pursue her goal of becoming the most successful merchant in the Continent of Ernoa.
Ruvaliana, though born a princess, grew up to be a strong and determined child.
Not once did he appear to be spoiled to both his parents.
“Yayang Allio, foot Valia atit nih. Please dipijatin dong.”
“Ah, which one, Brother?”
But the exception to his lover, Allios.
Of course Allios had never expressed his love even to Valia.
It was Valia's unilateral statement that Allios was her lover.
But Allios did not hate that either.
Allios was also happy to be by Valia's side and was treated gently and spoiled by her.
“Duh, I guess it's not good for me to walk far by the carriage, Ayang.”
“Then I told you to mending us boncergan aja riding a mechanical bike.”
“Yes, Valia regret not hearing Ayang Allio's words. Allio is smart.”
Valia deliberately splashed his body into the front of Allios' body so that the mountainous part of Valia could be felt clearly on Allios' skin.
It instantly made Allios' face flushed.
“Yes, already, Brother. Here Allios carry only.”
Valia's appearance suddenly flushed so seductively as if rhythmically by Allios' mood.
“Why is Big Brother so timid?”
“Exit the front of Brother, can be felt later the same Allio. But for Allio, it's okay. Hehehehehehehe.”
Allios' face immediately reddened by Ruvaliana's incessant teasing.
Ruvaliana simply behaved like that in front of Allios, but of course Allios was completely unaware of that.
Ruvaliana is always serious when it comes to her business.
As it is today, Ruvaliana even far ventured into the country of Rosea for the development of the caterpillar business as an effective powerful drug.
However, Ruvaliana never missed a bit of information about what was going on in her country, including the childish revolt of Helion, her brother.
“Ck. Again Helion stood up. I'm sure Dad is having a headache right now. But I'm sure if it's Farhaad, he can definitely support Dad well.”
“What's up, Brother?”
“Ah, Ayang Allio, Brother Helion fight again. Surely it makes Ayahanda very hassles.”
“Hmm? Isn't your father on an expedition to the western continent?”
“Hah?!”
Due to Ruvaliana's shock, she momentarily showed her true nature to Allios who was not cute at all.
And that also made Allios shocked.
Ruvaliana only immediately corrected her expression again, then found out more through Allios.
“Where did Yayang know?”
“Ah, my sword teacher, Mr. X, who was with Uncle Helios, who just told me by mail.”
“Ah, so it seems.”
Ruvaliana's mind was instantly complicated.
But it was no longer a rare thing that his father would sometimes descend directly into the western continent to make expeditions, so he simply ignored it.
At least, that was until a letter came to him asking him to immediately return home to the palace.
“What's up, Brother?”
Ruvaliana could no longer even respond to Allios' question.
His body immediately trembled and Ruvaliana suddenly cried.
With a faint look, Ruvaliana fell to the ground.
“Kak?”
“How is this, Allio? He said in the letter, Father had just died on an expedition to the western continent along with all his party colleagues.”
Not only Ruvaliana, Allios was immediately shocked to hear the sudden sad news.
