- Has been found a hole that is believed is the Floor 3 Abyss Pit. 

- Unlike Floor 2 Abyss Pit, the unknown Abyss Pit is like Floor 1 Abyss Pit, has a bright hole element like a blue sky. There are even many white objects that are believed to be clouds.

- The Clouds believed is a mass of condensed mana. So it is dangerous to be going down without a safety device.

[Abyssal Terra / 4.5 Years Ago]

[North Region]

- Has been determined that the Unknown Abyss Pit is the Pit to Floor 3. 

- However, because Floor 3 Abyss Pit did not have a Station, Hunter built their own Station and terminal. 

- Unfortunately, because Floor 1 and 2 Terminal is a natural creation of Abyssal Terra, Hunter doesn't know how far to go to Floor 3.

- So they maxed out the length of the gondola lift's 10,000m.

- Birdcage was replaced with Capsule to protect from mana cloud.

- Drop off mission being carried out once more. But this time the capsule only contains supplies for the first team expedition; if they were still alive.

[North Region / North End Station]

- It is believed that what makes the capsule gondola disappear after reaching an altitude of more than 7000m is a very strong wind currents.

- Several other missions are carried out at the expense of capsules. With the holding rope being improved every mission.

- Unfortunately, the same thing happens every mission. Make the development team give up on developing the gondola lift.

- "There is no going back after going down!"

- Troy the Gluttony believe that, once they going down to Floor 3, then there is no going back to Floor 2.

Abyssal Terra / Northwest Region 

Fisherman Village / 

Current Time /

"For the past three years, there are no more Hunters who want to go down to the Floor 3 for the reason they can't return to Floor 2."

A meeting being held at the village chief's house. 

The meeting was attended by Huxian's Representative, Hera, and the Greedy Young Master, Ars.

"Call me Dragon King! Goddamnit!"

Hera had just summarized the events of two years regarding the Floor 3 Abyss Pit, Boundless Sky.

"Unlike Floor 2 Abyss Pit, the Void, we don't have any information regarding Boundless Sky."

"But we have the information regarding Floor 3, right?"

After buying Floor 2, all properties in Floor 2 automatically belong to Ars. The same applies to all the people of Floor 2. 

Ars didn't force them to become his followers or anything. But he had the right to expel those who opposed him.

Because of that, he used his power to extract information from Troy the Gluttony's people on North End Station. 

"Unlike Floor 1 and 2, Floor 3 only has desert and sand. That setting reminds me of Africa." 

Ars has got everything he needs to get to Floor 3. He can even get down now if he wants.

However, Hera has something she could give for him. 

"Then, what is it? Did you find another way to Floor 3 other than that Boundless Sky? Let me guess, that route is in the Ocean?"

"As you might guess."

"You serious?"

Ars had a strong suspicion that Ocean had a path to Floor 3, and it turned out that the people who attended the meeting knew something about it.

"Mike, can I trust you to explain?"

"Of course."

Mike Sparrow. An active Legend Hunter and Captain of a ship. 

The man once helped Shield City from Catastrophe and did a big part on it. 

"Another Legend old man, huh?"

"Did you perhaps finding many old men on your way?"

"Not much, though. I met and being trained by three old man when I still a noob in Floor 1. One of them is a Saint. And I found this old man who was dual-wield spear at Northeast Region Catastrophe."

Ars's experience summarized is not that interested. However, when he mentioned the word 'Saint', it shocked people at the meeting.

"A Saint? You mean the Sword Saint?!"

"Who else?"

Ars acted as if a Saint was not that special to be proud of.

That can't be helped though. Because now he is the richest man of Abyssal Terra. 

"Enough with the chit-chat. Tell me about the route down to Floor 3 by Ocean."

"Before that, could you tell where the Sword Saint is?"

"No clue. The last time I checked, he is still at Giant Leaf Woods. But he disappeared after the catastrophe."

The catastrophe that hit Floor 1, Giant Leaf Woods. That happened one year ago.

That means the Sword Saint was still missing. 

Mike sighed in disappointment.

"Thank you for the answer. Then, regarding the information about route down to Floor 3 from the Ocean."

Once a year, the Ocean Tornado phenomenon occurs in the midst Ocean. 

A large tornado that unites Ocean with the sky.

The great tornado lasted half a day. During the occurrence of this phenomenon, coastal water as far as 300m from the beach disappeared.

"When that phenomenon happens, we try idly to play on the open coastline. Then we found an underwater cave that most likely leads to Floor 3. 250m away from the village coastline."

After knowing the information, Ars' body shook in tension.

Unintentionally, he also gave off a large aura that made the people at the meeting a little shocked.

"Where do you want to go?"

Ars suddenly gets up from his seat. With a big ambition showed on his face. 

"Show me that underwater cave."

He wanted to go to the underwater cave to confirm the information. 

"Even if we show you, it's in the underwater, you know."

"Just show him."

Mike doubting and did not know what Ars wanted to do if he knew the place position. But Ars told Mike to obey Ars' orders.

~

Ars walks on the ocean, stepping on his swords to be precise. His destination is the underwater cave position. 

He counts his step until 250. When his footsteps reached 250, he stopped, then looked under the sea.

"There is really a cave."

He saw a spot that gave off a dim light.

The spot had gaps that seemed like an empty space. The place is about 20m deep. 

Ars directly teleported to the spot. From there, he swims and enters the empty space, the cave. 

Entering the cave, Ars found himself in a big room and illuminated by natural light from Luminous Mineral.

Ocean hidden underwater cave. Has one stream of water that leads to a waterfall.

The water stream was big enough to store a ship. 

The waterfall leads to a bottomless pit. Floor 3 Abyss Pit. 

Believing that, Ars threw himself into the pit.
