Denki was in awe, he was absorbed by what he is witnessing, so fast, so precise, and every move transferred flawlessly into the next in a smooth display of dance that slaughtered everything around August. The monsters were like statues for him, as he effortlessly killed them with one strike after the next. Then it clicked. Everything August is doing is something out of the far eastern philosophy in martial arts. "Amazing." he can only applaud what his captain was showing him right now.

"And the most important thing inside the dungeon is knowing what your limit is." August looked at Denki straight in the eye. This made Denki swallow some saliva from the look August gave him. "I almost died inside here because I failed to do so in the past. I was lucky to survive but luck isn't always by our side." He shrugs and continues moving deeper on the 16th floor.

Denki watched the back of his captain, he felt that he is so reliable inside here. He is learning more and more from him and he is thankful for it.

"Let's go."

"Coming!!!" Denki ran after his captain's back as they both continued on with their adventures.

-At the room of prayer in the adventurers guild.

Both Hermes and Ganesha are standing in front of Ouranus as they made final adjustments for the incoming tournament that Hades had proposed.

"Lord Ouranus, the preparations for the event are going without any issues, every gods and mortals inside the city have been anticipating restlessly for such a spectacle. There is no doubt in my mind that this would be a success." Hermes said with pride. He was proud of himself for pulling this off with very little time.

"And the security of the city has gone through a major overhaul, I've personally made the adjustment myself so the spectators as well as the gods can watch without any worries." Ganesha said with utmost confidence. He firmly believes that no one would be able to pass his familia handling the security of the city in the incoming tournament.

"Hmmm..." Ournaus nodded at the two. At first he was perplexed by Hades and why he suggested such an event, but seeing as how the public has been clamoring for it and how the gods can't stop talking about it, he allowed for it to happen. And when he knew that all of this was because of the words of Heracles, he began to mobilize the adventurers guild to help with the preparations. "So everything is going smoothly. Then I would have the adventurers guild officially announce this tournament and it will happen two weeks from now. That should give every familia who wish to enter their children ample time to prepare."

"Then at the event I would like to ask permission to use Arcanum to project the fight city wide." Hermes asked.

"I'll allow it, but your use is only limited to projecting the fights. Any more and you know what will happen." Ouranus answered firmly.

"Then it's official, the tournament to determine the strongest level 5 in the city will commence two weeks from now." Ganesha said, excitement fills his voice. Yet there's a tinge of worry that the two gods caught in his tone.

"Hmmm..." Ouranus nodded. "Then with that being said then this meeting has come to a close. Hermes you may leave, I would like to have a word with Ganesha."

Hermes was intrigue on what the old fox wanted to talk about with Ganesha, still he exited the room nonetheless. His curiosity was not enough for him to cross such an old being. He was smart enough to know when to pick his battles and he knew that Ouranus is way above his hitting range. "As you wish." he said as he made a quick bow, he then headed towards the exit.

Ouranus watched as Hermes exited the room of prayers, he took a quick glance towards his aide who suddenly appeared from the shadows to confirm that the god had fully left.
