Their search for a way to return to the surface continued for hours until finally, everyone decided to rest at a corner.

"Guys, which class do you think would win in this trial competition?" Aiden suddenly started.

"Of course, our class!" Axel confidently replied.

"Tch, it\'s obviously ours!" Murgan quickly disagreed.

"Boys, you should not forget that Class C Alliance still remained untouchable till this point, so it\'s obviously our class that will win!" Ehtelyn joined in.

Darwin suddenly sat right beside Leo as he asked, "How about you Leo, who do you think will win?"

"I think one of the Class E will win!" Leo replied.

"I also agree with that!" Aiden supported.

"Why?" Everyone immediately became curious the moment they heard Leo and Aiden\'s assumption.

"That\'s a very simple question! Well, you see, the Class C Alliance and Class D Alliance currently lacked their leaders right now, so Class E Alliance and Class S Alliance could pretty much cherry-pick everyone right this moment." Leo explained, "And when it\'s only going to be a fight between Class E Alliance against Class S Alliance, I can only assume that we will be able to destroy 2/3 of the Class E Alliance before the entire Class S Alliance finally gets eliminated."

"See that Murgan, two people acknowledge that we will win!" Axel proudly said.

"However," Leo unexpectedly continued, "Assuming that Class E Alliance has both leaders and vice-leaders, then right now Class E Alliance should be in a total disadvantageous position too since there should only be 4 leaders currently leading the alliance."

"So what you\'re trying to say is; Class S Alliance is in a really advantageous position right this moment since you\'re the only one missing?" Aiden asked dubiously.

"Exactly!" Leo smiled mischievously.

"Hey guys, how about let\'s just eliminate Leo?" Axel whispered something to Murgan before he suddenly proposed.

"And take away a sword that can fight against your Class E Alliance, no thanks, Axel!" Murgan shook his head. If what Leo really assumed right now is exactly what is currently happening up in the surface, then the Class D Alliance would naturally not try and eliminate Leo. Although it may sound like Class S Alliance is in a really advantageous position basing on what Leo had said, he knows that it isn\'t really entirely like that. Moreover, the strength gap between each class shouldn\'t be that wide, right? Even to the point that mere leaders can already dictate how the trial competition would develop.

"Unfortunately, we need Leo right now so that we can escape this Labyrinth. But, we can eliminate Axel, Matthew, and Aiden instead, right? Especially since we really need a teacher\'s help right at this moment!" Ehtelyn suddenly proposes.

"Hehehehe!" Murgan smiled cunningly while looking at Axel, Matthew, and Aiden.

"Um... What Axel just said is a joke guy, just a joke! Please don\'t take it seriously..." Aiden quickly defended. He just went into too much trouble just to keep his presence in the trial competition, and if he just gets eliminated right now because of Axel\'s unreasonable response, then he doesn\'t have any face to show his classmates anymore.

"Yes, yes, please don\'t take it seriously!" Matthew quickly followed up.

"Oh, he might just be joking, but I\'m definitely not!" Ehtelyn showed a beautiful smile on her face as her right hand went to reach for her sword in the left side of her waist, followed along by Tiffany.

"Okay, that\'s enough! Let\'s not think of eliminating anyone right now. We need every manpower we have!" Darwin solemnly interrupted.

Hearing everyone\'s reply, except for Leo and Melthy, Axel and Murgan suddenly began laughing, "Hahahahaha!"

"We were clearly just trying to lighten up the mood!" Axel explained.

"Yeah, we noticed that a few of you were already feeling really tense and stress, so we thought that we should help you guys remove those kinds of feeling!" Murgan added.

"You both were actually just joking?" Ehtelyn dubiously asked.

"Do you really think we are stupid to fight in a place like this?" Axel rolls his eyes, seemingly stating the obvious.

"And just which part of that was a way to lighten up the mood of everyone?" Darwin rolls his eyes.

"The thought of fighting!" Murgan answered confidently.

"Muscle heads!" Leo can\'t help but comment.

"I agree!" Ehtelyn.

"I wholeheartedly agree with that!" Tiffany.

"I can\'t believe Class E- really assigned you as their leader... Seriously, just which part of you think like a leader?" Aiden sarcastically added, which Matthew nodded his head in agreement.

"The same applies to Murgan. Just how stupid are his classmates to even think of making him the leader!" Darwin shook his head. Suddenly,

"Hey guys, I think you should see this scene that I\'m currently looking right now..." Melthy suddenly called out in a silent voice towards them.

Everyone\'s attention was immediately pulled towards Melthy as they quickly began walking closer to her.

As soon as they arrived beside Melthy, what they see immediately rendered them speechless.

Hundreds of men dress in black clothes were currently doing all sorts of different things around a big wide open cave, specifically 500 square meters wide.

Some men were carrying supplies inside the cave, some were patrolling, some were guarding a prisoner\'s room in an open side, some were carrying all sorts of different tools, and some people were even trying to tame a bunch of Magical Beast Sharks locked inside an aquarium. The aquarium was obviously made out of Magic Glass, one of the types of glass that have the hope in withstanding the power of Magical Beast or anything Magic related.

There is also a big stone tablet in the middle of the cave with a Magic map of the entire Floating Mountain resting on the top and 4 men wearing a mask were currently having a conversation around the table. Curiously though, the Floating Mountain map on the table actually has the drawing of the 4 ravines that mysteriously appeared, and there were actually many more ravines too, that they didn\'t even know actually existed.

And the most shocking of all, at the southernmost part of the cave, a small black-colored Magical Beast that seemingly looked like a shark with a white as snow wings at its back was put inside a glass aquarium and hang up on the top of the cave\'s ceiling with lava threatening to reach the glass aquarium underneath.

Suddenly, the iron chain holding the aquarium was lowered down, causing the water inside the aquarium to heat up due to the lava\'s hotness.

"KYAAAAAAAAAARGGGHHH!!!" The Black Shark immediately screamed very loudly because of the pain of the burning hot seawater.

*Rumble!

The cave suddenly started rumbling, which soon after caused a few stalactites to fall on the ground.

"KYAAAAAAARGHHHH!!"

*Bang! *Bang!

Two unlucky men were unfortunate enough to be squashed by the stalactites.

"That\'s enough, pull it back up again!" One of the men wearing a mask suddenly ordered the man who was in charge of the chain of the glass aquarium, "And also clean up that mess. Tch! Those two were already very useless, yet they still caused us trouble! I change my mind, feed their bodies to that little one as it must be really hungry right now!"

Quickly, as if afraid of something, that man quickly pulled back up the chain and carefully locked it so that the aquarium will not accidentally fall down the lava. Afterward, he quickly runs towards a tunnel and after a few minutes, he brought out an empty box and walked towards the two unfortunate men\'s dead bodies before carefully putting them inside.

Axel and the others really can\'t believe that that man even bothered to scoop the seemingly meat-paste part of the body, worst he had even thoroughly cleaned the stalactites to the point that only blood remains and there were no longer anybody parts, even the seemingly meat-paste part.

"Doesn\'t he feel disgusted while picking and scooping those?" Tiffany can\'t help but comment.

"Exactly! Even I can\'t pick a rat\'s dead body after killing it, not to mention a Human\'s body!" Melthy agreed.

Seemingly really familiar with this action, that man then carried the box to a high platform nearby the Black Shark\'s aquarium as he then put down the box carrying the bodies before opening a small door in the top of the aquarium where he then slowly and carefully slid inside the two dead bodies one by one.

The Black Shark quickly gobbled up the two dead bodies, obviously really hungry, and to also recover the energy it had used in withstanding the torment it just went through a while ago.

"Who are these men!" Aiden can\'t help but ask.

"Basing in those tokens on their clothes, I assume that they are what my father called as the Black organization." Axel answered, "A well known dark organization in the northern region of the Silver Kingdom!"

"Then what are they doing here?" Murgan followed up.

"I also don\'t know..." Axel helplessly replied. To be honest, although he had indeed heard about this so-called Black organization from his father, calling them a dark organization made up of lunatics, he didn\'t really bother knowing more about them. In his opinion, this kind of organization was the problem of the adults, not to an 18 years old student like him.

Unexpectedly, Leo heard a really familiar voice in the prison area.

"Forget it, I will not do this anymore!" A man in his 40s suddenly yelled out inside one of the prison cells as he walked closer towards one of the guarding men, "Tell one of your boss that I will not continue doing this unless he releases all of my students!"

"Teacher Smith!" Leo can\'t help but exclaim in his mind, "How did teacher Smith end up in a place like this?"

"Smith, my old friend, just go and continue doing the job I asked you to do if you want all of your students to stay alive!" A tall man wearing a masked said as he walked closer towards teacher Smith\'s prison cell.

"Tch, I\'m not a fool Viper, I know you will not honor your side of the deal!" Teacher Smith replied.

"Tch! Bring one of his students over!" Escobar quickly ordered one of the guarding soldiers.

Teacher Smith\'s eyes immediately narrowed after as soon as he heard Viper\'s order. As someone who had fought many times with this person in front of him, he knows one single fact about Viper. This lunatic guy is the type of character where he will use the most simple and direct method to force someone to follow all of his orders, Threats!

"How cowardly are you to use a bunch of students against me!" Teacher Smith mockingly said.

"Correction, teacher Smith, you should call me smart, since I\'m capable of ordering around a powerful blacksmith such as you with just the use of mere useless students! Heck, why do you even care about this bunch of useless students when you can just simply replace them anytime you want? Back at that time before we successfully captured you, you should have abandoned your students immediately the moment you realized that you will not win against us!" Viper replied.

"Sir!" The guard finally came back while bringing with him one of the students.

It was Lena!

"Oh, such a beautiful student you have here teacher Smith, hehehe!" Viper wickedly laughed while touching Lena\'s crying face, "Caynis, how about you come here for a second, I\'m currently debating whether to give you a gift or not!"

"What kind of gift is it..." Caynis suddenly stopped as his eyes lit brightly while staring at Lena.

To be honest, Caynis actually prefers Mage virgins more as it could give him more Magic power compared to normal virgins. In fact, if the total amount of virgins he had touched before and until now were all Mage virgins, then he would have surely become much more powerful than Viper. Unfortunately, though, it was already hard to get normal virgins to notice him because of his ugly face, not to mention those female Mages who are always a beauty and obviously has a really high standards. The only way for him to get female Mage virgins is to kidnap them, which is also not that easy because it\'s really hard to confirm whether that female Mage is really a virgin or not. And if he just simply grabs random female Mage every time instead, then eventually all the Mage Academies and even the Silver Kingdom itself would begin a full hunt on him, hence he wouldn\'t be able to move freely anymore, which would obviously cause his cultivation to slow down.

"I will forever be grateful to you if you gift me someone like her, Viper!"

Caynis can\'t help but reach his hand in front to try and touch Lena\'s body. But he was immediately stopped by Viper\'s firm grip.

"It will depend on this man whether you will have this gift or not, Caynis! So, how about you go and persuade him?" Viper cunningly suggested.

"Tch! Hey old guy, or was it Smith? Nevermind that, why don\'t you just give me this student of yours? She\'s useless to an old guy like you anyway since you can\'t even make her feel pleasure with your body anymore!" Caynis nonchalantly proposes to teacher Smith.

"You..." Teacher Smith has quickly put in a really disadvantageous and helpless position after Viper set-up such a plot. If he keeps this on, then he would surely push his student, Lena, to this perverted Caynis. Only Fate knows just what would happen to Lena after that.

"What is your decision, teacher Smith?" Viper asked as he slowly lightens his grip of Caynis hand, allowing the latter to slowly move his hand closer to Lena\'s body.

"Teac... her..." Lena tearfully called out to teacher Smith.

"Okay!" Teacher Smith finally decided, "I\'ll follow your orders."

"Caynis you are free to go!" Viper immediately pushed away Caynis as soon as he heard teacher Smith\'s answer.

"But in one condition!" Teacher Smith suddenly continued.

"And that condition is?" Viper asked.

"Take Lena back to where our camp is!"

"Why should I? She\'s one of the greatest bargaining chip I have."

"You still have 29 others with you!"

"If doing this would finally get you to keep on working, then I\'ll gladly comply!"

Hearing Viper finally agrees with his proposal, teacher Smith can\'t help but to heave a sigh of relief. Being able to successfully save one of his students would at least lighten up a bit of his guilt. He was already feeling really guilty since he had pulled all of his students to this mess. If only he didn\'t trust that one colleague of his, then they wouldn\'t be in this hopeless situation right now.

"If I\'m able to escape in this place alive, then I will definitely find that person, even if I have to travel to the ends of the Celestial World!" Teacher Smith swore in his mind before finally returning back to work.

"You! Escort this student safely back to their camp!" Viper randomly pointed out a man amongst the group of guards before quickly throwing Lena\'s body over to that person, "And don\'t you dare do anything stupid!"

"Yes, sir!" That man tasked to escort Lena hurriedly reply. Although Lena was a beauty that everyone would desire to touch, he wasn\'t stupid enough to try to do her, especially since he already knew that he wouldn\'t really be escorting this girl back to where everyone from Silver Mage Academy was camping at in Floating Mountain but instead to Caynis room.

Outsiders may think that Viper had really agreed to the deal he had just made with teacher Smith. But everyone from the Black organization was long familiar with a few of Viper\'s character. One of the most common characteristics that Viper has is that he\'s a cunning bastard with no sense of loyalty, shame, and honor at all, especially to people who dares to order him around like what teacher Smith had just done. Not to mention, teacher Smith and all of his students were actually already long been labeled as dead the moment they were brought in this place. So, Viper would naturally not honor his side of the deal made with a bunch of dead people.

And since teacher Smith and all of his student\'s death were inevitable anyway, then the Black organization might as well just use them to benefit themselves, right?

"Let\'s go!" The man quickly pulled Lena towards a specific tunnel, a tunnel that will eventually lead towards Caynis room, where Lena was obviously going to lose her life in order for Caynis to further improve his own Magic power.

"Thank you, teacher Smith!" Lena hurriedly expresses her gratitude to teacher Smith before following behind the man pulling her hand.

The man taking Lena can\'t help but to let out a secret chuckle as he murmured silently, "If this innocent girl knew that she was actually being sent by her teacher to death, would she still feel grateful?"
