The next day, I met up with the others as planned.
Finally, we had escaped the dungeon and the underground, and made it to the surface.
We had climbed with intense momentum until then, and I didn't plan on letting it slip.
It started with the Sixteenth Floor, a surprising continuation from directly where we had left off―passing through the stone door at the end of the crystal golem's chamber, we emerged near the top of an incomparably tall, wintry mountain.
The Objective was simple: to find an item hidden somewhere along the mountain.
Naturally, we already possessed the knowledge that the required item was in reality a drop from a rare monster found typically near the mountain's peak, as well as how to effectively hunt it―an easy task thanks to a quick snipe by Nina's arrow.
