The White Tower is the name of a dungeon what does not reach downards but upwards. It's outerior is completely white and so is the interior. Most of the mobs there are colored white aswell. The dungeon has not been cleared yet but the adventurers have gotten close to clearing it. The top floor boss is stronger than most bosses on the seventy nine floors it has and the fact that it can summon minions at any time makes it even more risky to try to kill.

--------------------

It's been four years since I entered the Academy. After I put up the barrier on the Academy nothing interesting happened. The brain frying part did its job in the first days since it killed people instead of paralyzing their limbs... I am still not sad about that. The academy was at peace for four years after the Demons died and never came to this place. I learn the entire Scythe Fighting Style and a lot about Politics and AMC. The Scythe Fighting Style is actually quite... Vicious. Especially the Seventh Guard... That style can rip apart even a mountain in a mere second if you had over one thousand strength. My status right now... It's changed. Not a lot but it has clearly changed.

Summon God Grounds ability is really interesting. I can only summon a small pagoda though but the pagoda stops all time when I summon it. I can will everything what happens inside the God Grounds I have summoned. Summon Metals speaks for itself and the Scythe Fighting Style does the same. There is one thing I found in the God Grounds ability... It can change into anything. I wanted to test out the summon metals one time and it turned into a small smithery with every tool neccesary to make weapons and such. I still do not know abut my mystery element or my magical power though... Those two remain a mystery.

My time in the Academy ends soon though. The ceremony for me and everybody else who graduates this year is being held today. In about one hour. I am sitting in my room with my new crimson red uniform. Artimael got it clean but when I found out that the headmaster made a new one just for me I had to wear it. It's exactly Crimson Red and has an unique pattern to it. The pattern follows a pentagram style. When I put my hands and legs together in a meditation style it looks like a pentagram for some reason. I still prefer the armor Artimael got me. This uniform is too flashy so I'll change out of it when the graduation ceremony is over...

Ren: "It's time to go."

Mithneel: "Ok. Let's go then."

I get up from my chair and Ren and Fyra are waiting for me outside my now empty room. It was full of books before because I was learning about the world and such.

Mithneel: "I had some fun times in this academy. Sad to leave it behind but i'll probably be back here quite a couple times."

I walk downstairs and greet Jae and Emilia. After I healed Jae she kept following me around constantly and acting like she is my daughter or something. It was weird for the first two years and still is to this day. Emilia is just very grateful and helps me. I also thoroughly punished Jae's parents. I talked a hole through their brains so everytime they see me they immediatly bow and look at me with fright. I might've taken it... No I didn't take it too far. They deserved it because they left their daughter to basically die. They could've easily spotted the wound if they just took one second to consider checking if their daughter got hurt or not and to see why she wasn't moving around a lot like she usually did. The other families really didn't have anything to do with Jae so I didn't talk a hole through their brains but still warned them a little. Also the little rumour about me got bigger really fast. It even started to attract attention outside the academy. Sometimes a few people come to see the 'Spirit' who guards the academy. I even spotted a mage trying to take down the barrier but got their brain fried instead. Should've tried to do it outside the barrier not inside... Not my problem if they still don't understand how the barrier works. I made the barrier a simple but strong one. I look around and see only Jae and Emilia but nobody else. Weird.

Jae: "Mithneel!"

Jae jumps and clings to me again. She used to call me 'step-father' for a few months till I got tired of it and told her to stop. Now she just calls me Mithneel but still acts like my daughter.

Emilia: "Hello Sir Mithneel."

Ah.. Emilia.... She calls me Sir because of the way I acted after I noticed Jae's injury. I pat Jae on the head and see Fyra pouting a little but ignore it. She knows that Jae is just trying to be nice towards her savior. I walk outside to see Meril waiting for us already. My relationship with Meril isn't to the wife point but you could still call her my girlfriend... So I technically have two wives and one girlfriend or a mistress.

Meril: "Minh!"

Mithneel: "Heya Meril."

She runs up to me and kisses me on the cheek. Over the four years Meril has been the most agressive in her pursuit for my love. Ren and Fyra... They are agressive but still haven't gotten to the point of trying to kiss me on the lips. They do the same as Meril but just a lot less. Meril looks at Jae with a little bit of anger but then looks back at me.

Meril: "Well, it's time to go Minh! The ceremony starts soon!"

Mithneel: "Yeah yeah... I know. I don't want to know what kind of ceremony Uldar's going to hold though. I've been to one of his parties... It... Was... Weird..."

Uldar's parties usually involve showing off magic a lot. There was one party I went to and... He used some gender-changing magic. It allowed him to change somebodies gender for a minute. He used it on himself and it was really weird... I never took him so seriously after that again.

I start heading towards the location of the graduation ceremony. It's being held in a newly constructed area. Uldar had the genious idea of putting my name in a hidden location as the founder of the idea for the place. I believe it was stupid idea... But atleast he hid it and didn't make a huge statue of me right in the middle of the entire academy like his first idea. I did a lot of 'miracles' as people would call it during my time at the Academy. Mostly just solving things that a human mind couldn't possibly handle. I might look like a human but as my status says... I am an elf, demi-god, demon and a dungeon. If you compare me to a human... I am kind of god-like to them.

I reach the new area. It's just a cube with a dome as it's roof. The dome is made out of glass but you can't really realize it from the outside. It's using some kind of magic-enchanted glass what makes it one-sided. I have no idea how the glass is made but i'll learn it one day probably. I also took some interest in healing magic and found out that it... Is actually quite hard to master. Well... I am still trying to learn the higher-tier spells like regenerating an entire limb with no faults.

I go into the area and see everybody there already. Well... Everybody who didn't die to my barrier. Atleast twenty percent of the boys died to the barrier and five percent of the girls.. The others got the message really quick and straightened up.

Uldar: "Mithneel! We were waiting for you! You are our little genius so we must have you here to begin! Come, take a seat in the front row."

I go to the front row of the building. The building has an elevated area and some steps to it where the teachers are at. Then there are a lot of chairs all going towards the elevated area and they are all divided into rows. The first to the third are usually for the more successful students and the back rows for the less intelligent.

The ceremony goes on for a few hours as we all get all the graduation scrolls and achievement papers we got over time. I got a whole bunch of them... So much that I had to call in two maids to help me carry them. I had the school keep quiet about me until I graduated because it would be hard for me to be free when the world knows about the little genius in the academy and the lords try to take control of me. The Kings and Emperors know about me but also don't thanks to Arti's mind magic. People vaguely remember a person like me who dominated the tournament and asked for some prize and mysteriously dissapeared. Arti completely wiped him out of everybodies memories because if there were two monsters on this world they would surely try to make them fight eachother to get them to kill eachother so they would feel safe.

When the ceremony ends I go to the carriage set for me after changing my clothes to my adventurer ones what Arti made for me a couple years ago. Meril, Fyra and Ren come in with me. Jae wanted to get in too but her parents stopped her luckily. She really thinks of me as her father instead of her real father... Emilia bows as I close the carriage door and the carriage driver starts riding towards the City of the White Tower. I really wanted to go there because of the unique dungeon there. It also has a mass of adventurer guilds and sub-guilds called Battalions. I thought about starting my own Battalion for my group of four. Sub-guilds will over time to turn into full-fledged Adventurer Guilds when it has existed for long enough and done a lot of good deeds.

Also for the reason Meril is coming with us... She persuaded Uldar. Well it's more like ordered Uldar to let her come. Her parents died due to a war that I ended just a few days after the fight they died in. If I was faster I probably could've saved her parents but it is already too late. I told her that I could've saved her parents but didn't because I wasn't fast enough but she forgave me. I didn't tell her that I ended that war though.

We ride towads the City of the White Tower for a couple of days with no interesting things happening. When we reach it I pay the driver and leave. I gathered up quite a lot of gold when I was in the academy thanks to doing many jobs for Uldar and Arti. Arti left a couple months before the ceremony to do some research about something.

I search for an inn to stay in and find one. It's nothing special but it will do for now. I go in and see it is deserted and only the owner of the place is here. I pay him a couple gold coins to let us stay here for a bit and go to our room. It is like a normal inn room. Next... I have to go and find the guild.

I go outside leaving the girls to do their things and look around for the Main Guild Building. It is like usual, just a big fancy building with the emblem. Adventurer guilds are not like the Main Guild. They are similiar to Aristocrats serving their King or Emperor. The King or Emperor is the Main Guild.

I go inside the guild and see a lot of people here. Probably to get quests for the Tower. I go up to the counter to be greeted by a beast-lady who is an attendant.

Attendant: "Hello. Mind showing me your Guild Card if you have one?"

Mithneel: "Guild Card... Oh you mean this..."

I bring out a card that Irina gave me a while back. Can't remember when though.

Attendant: "Mithneel Evergreen... An... S-class?!"

Mithneel: "Indeed. I am an S-class thanks to some quests"

Attendant: "What are you doing here Master Evergreen?"

Mithneel: "Just call me Mithneel or Minh. I am no aristocrat so don't call me Master."

Attendant: "Alright Minh but what are you doing here?"

Mithneel: "I came by here once and took an interest in the dungeon. I want to see the top."

Attendant: "Ah, then you can go to the Base Gate and go up from there. An Adventurer Guild is setting up an expedition if you want to go with them. They call themselves the Sons of Loki."

Mithneel: "Sons of Loki? A guild for Tricksters?"

Attendant: "They just call themselves the Sons of Loki for fun. They are actually quite strong. Half of them are A-classes. One of them is really strong... She is going to be leading the expedition. We call her The Princess due to her sophisticated fighting style. It really looks like a princess who trained in the most elegant sword fighting style battling against monsters."

Mithneel: "Where are they now?"

Attendant: "They'll go soon. Better get there in under half an hour though."

I rush off because I want to see this woman called The Princess. I go to the Inn using my Time Stop ability and appear in our room. Fyra, Ren and Meril are sitting there waiting for me and when I appear infront of them they almost fall backwards but I catch them.

Mithneel: "You three ready to go? We might've just reached the city but we already have an expedition going up. This is the last chance to see the inside probably."

They all nod and I grab their hands and put my face against Fyra's cheek and use the Time Stop ability. If I touch somebody with my skin before using the ability it doesn't freeze them. Fyra is blushing but calms down when she notices that I used an ability because nothing except us is moving.

Mithneel: "Come on now. I used an ability I have."

I start walking out the door I left open and close it when they exit aswell. We walk to the Expedition of the Sons of Loki and see atleast two hundred people. I go to the front where I see a woman what seems to be elegant like a princess. Probably the rumoured Princess. I stop using my ability and the princess bumps into me because of my sudden appearance infront of her. I stop the men falling ontop of my two wives and my girlfriend though. No way are they going to try to hurt them.

The Princess: "Umm... Who are you and how did you get infront of me so fast?"

Mithneel: "I am Mithneel. I am an S-class adventurer. About the appearance... Don't question it. Just accept it. I want to come with your expedition. I won't do anything till the situation seems dangerous for my group and until somebody from your group asks me to."

The Princess: "An S-class... Is coming with us... This is great news! And we will greatly take your help without questioning anything but please show me you card so I can completely trust you."

I show her my Guild Card and she looks at it with big eyes.

The Princess: "You really are... An S-class... What about the three girls with you..."

Mithneel: "Don't question. Let's go."

The Princess: "Yes! Let us go!"

She starts walking again and the expedition starts moving. I stay near the front lines to see the fight but I constantly keep an eye over my two wives and girlfriend. The expedition easily clears up until the sixtieth floor where I had to step in when one of the messed up with the boss and sent it flying towards my group. Here is what happened. The boar-like creature flew at us and I used the Scythe Style Guard One. This style easily allows to kill a huge boss if you have the strength I do. I just spun the scythe around really fast as it was the First Step for Guard One. I couldn't get to the Second Step because the boss was already gone by the time the First Step ended. We cleared the rest of the rooms until we reached the top floor. Floor seventy nine. Before the boss battle the Princess held a speech and currently we are entering the boss's room. The boss uses a weird style to fight until I come into the room. Then it's attention turns to me and it seems to try to charge at me but it seems like it's instincts tell it to back off immediatly and let me pass quietly. Guess the dungeon core is forcing it to do this. The moment it tries to strike at me I use the Second Step for Guard One what is kind of a counter attack. The moment the blade hits my scythe I use the small curved area to throw the blade the boss has away and swing my scythe towards it's hand that gets chopped off the next instant. Then I continue with the step by slashing at it's face with the inside part of my scythe to cleanly chop off the head. The boss what looks like a minotaur falls to the ground without a head and arm and I use wind magic to block all the blood flying towards us.

I look around and see nobody questioning what just happened and instead focusing on the door the boss was guarding.

The Princess: "We cleared the final boss room! Now to destroy the Core to let this Dungeon stay the way it is and make it into a real tower instead of a growing dangerous dungeon!"

They charge at the dungeon only to find two bigger and stronger bosses there and they freak out. Don't they know this...? I walk forward and the attention turns to me. The bosses seem to try to bow before me but the Dungeon Core controlling them wants them to try to kill me or harm me. The will of the dungeon core is stronger so they attack me but mid-attack they start bowing down towards me. I cleanly cut off their head to sever their connection between the dungeon core. I then with a clean attack cut the dungeon core in half.

I decide to use the "Consumption" ability on the bosses to make it seem like I used my scythe to obliterate them because I made it all happen so fast. I also consume the dungeon core to make it seem like I destroyed it too. Nothing seems to happen on the exterior of my body but a lot has happened in the interior of my body. My muscles and such have turned more visible but my Strength Attribute does not change for some reason. Is it because they were too weak compared to me?

The Princess: "The Dungeon... It is cleared..."

I look at her and she cannot comprehend what just happened. It seems nobody but Fyra and Ren can comprehend. Not even Meril.

Mithneel: "Well that was... Not so fun. I thought it would be more interesting, clearing a dungeon, than before. Ah no matter. Fyra, Ren, Meril. Let's go back to the Inn. I thought the Tower would be different than this but it was easily cleared..."

I walk off and see only one hundred and fifty. Fifty people died? I would've barely gotten a scratch here even if I was being the most careless person in Dystopia... Must be my strength and blessings and such.

I head back to the Inn and go to sleep. The Dungeon Clearing took so long thanks to me having to wait for the two hundred people going from floor to floor... It would've been faster but a little less intereting without them.

Fyra, Ren and Meril come to sleep in my bed because we only had one huge bed for the four of us. The Battalion will be formed tomorrow... I'm just too tired because of waiting today...
