After eating and sleeping, Erix, Rin, and Aria woke up earlier than others, at six in the morning.
The trio freshened up and also had so fun in the bathroom for half an hour before they left and entered the Labyrinth Tower. Erix and Rin wanted to attempt the 20th floor for the special quest, while Aria was going to challenge the 16th Floor.
The mont they entered, their Power Level updated, and a panel appeared before them.
[A/N: Btw, there was a basic mistake in Power Level calculation, but it's fixed here.]

"Not bad," Erix grinned. "But the next thing we need is a domain. We have to remain below 150k Power Level for the quest."
"I still have room for improvent," Rin said as she looked at her Power Level chart.

"I'll improve my Blood and Death after the domain."
"Rin, do you want to comprehend the Light elent? I an, the Lightning elent is a combination of Wind and Light elents, so it shouldn't be hard for you to begin in the path of Light," Aria said with a big smile. "I can help you because I am also progressing fast in Light affinity."
"Yeah, I should use so Primary Elental crystals to comprehend Light elent," Rin nodded while rubbing her chin before grinning. "If I get powers of Light elent, I can be even faster and deadlier."
"Aria's concept is magical too. I don't know how it would develop," Erix said as he looked at Aria's Power Level chart.

"For now, I can only transfer so of my Magic power and Prana to targets that Bond with my concept," Aria said as a faint light red string appeared before her, that ethereally connected to Rin and Erix.
"But I feel like I can do more with this."
"You can, cutie pie," Erix said with a laugh. "Whatever you imagine in the path of your concept can be possible. You just have to give it a push and carve a path for it."
"I am also curious about Isabella-sis's Concept," Rin wryly sighed. "I hope she tells us whatever that's in her mind."
"We can't force her, so let's give her the ti she wants," Erix said before he opened the Labyrinth Floor panel and selected the 20th Floor. "Let's move to our floor while Aria can go to the 16th floor for her challenge."
…
After arriving on the 20th Floor, Erix and Rin were about to press [Yes] on the challenging floor and even pressed it but [Error] appeared once again.
'You two…'
A sigh of the Tower Master of Labyrinth Tower rang in their heads.
'Why didn't you form your Domain during the past month?'
"We have a free attempt," Erix rolled his eyes. "Let us just fight this challenge. It's fine even if we lose once. Next ti, we can co with the domain."
"We had so resources to use and improve our combat, so we focused on it," Rin clicked her tongue.
'Fine. You won't learn unless you experience it.'
The voice snorted before a notification popped up before them asking them if they wanted to challenge the 20th Floor.
Both of them grinned and pressed Yes before vanishing from the floor.
In the sa two dinsions, Erix and Rin appeared and faced a blood-red sea as far as their eyes could see.
Five kiloters away from them was a huge tree with eccentric entanglent of branches and vines, with lush glowing leaves of various red hues.
In the middle of the tree was a black wooden throne. It was occupied by a seven-foot-tall humanoid with draconian black wooden horns with crimson patterns.
He wore a wooden knightly armor set with materials akin to the exotic redwood, with black and dark gold pattern designs on it.
[Challenge: Nyx, the Eclipsed Hollow Knight.]
Without hesitation, both Erix and Rin released their fastest and most powerful attacks after entering their Combat forms.
Rin in her Asura Chaos Form wielded her Blade Eater and Katana of Raibor Power Sli, instantly consuming all of her Prana for skills, half of her Spirit Force for boost, her class energy, and her physical moves as her figure blurred and she vanished, appearing behind Nyx.
While her both arms swung in an ultra-fast pincer attack from her both weapons with intentions to cut Nyx into pieces, a chaotic whirlpool of Chronace Field also enveloped her.
The whirlpool had the capability of forming tens of thousands of blades per second, and once Rin's attack connected in the next millisecond, she could heavily debuff her target, slow it, and overwhelm Nyx with her deadly attacks.
…But no.
Before anything of Rin could affect and hurt Nyx, Rin's mind blanked while the surrounding scenery vanished, appearing deep within blood-red water with raging streams of glowing crimson and black sparks.
In the next second, Rin saw her own body with her head as she was beheaded by a few sparks of rapidly forming streams that penetrated through her passive Chronace Field, destroyed her Prana Kavach, and killed her, ending her first and last safe attempt on the 20th Floor.
anwhile, Erix's fate was no different than Rin's.
Even after using his Erasure Void Rods along with releasing his close-range single-target strongest Punch in his Celestial Chaos Form, Nyx still beheaded Erix, and he died.
Both of them appeared on the 20th floor at the sa ti, looked at each other, and saw the sa shock in each other's eyes.
At the mont, they truly realized why this Floor had a warning and 'Skip' option, unlike the previous floors.
