" Sigh...screw it. I am not doing it anymore. Only three days are left until the deadline. I better take out my frustration on others... " Green Genie muttered.

None of the traps or anything worked on Athan. He was leisurely finding monoliths while nullifying and escaping traps. He had his army of 6000 bees which helped him observes many things.

The bees would die, but he would just create more, and the last batch of bees was light green with silver patterns as Athan transformed voidpulse into Aegis Starwood to make them tough.

...

Linci was in another room, and there were four days left until her deadline.

She was also finding monoliths and avoiding tricky traps. As for other things such as monsters and chaotic powers attacking her? They were useless as her mystical power would automatically protect her.

Two passed as she was facing an increased number of tricky traps.

She almost fell into one trap that was an illusion portal. If she went into it, then her time would be up and event over for her.

But...She still didn't last more as, after two more hours, A trickier trap defeated her.

' What's going? Was it supposed to be this hard at the near end? I never reached this far previously since I did all events without my full strength in my first attempt. '

On the other hand, Two green genies suddenly appeared, which made Linci a bit confused.

" Not bad, lass. You did well. "

" Mhmm. Not bad at all. Your score is 109,500. Congratulations, You broke the previous all-time high record. "

Hearing them, Linci was surprised, ' Athan went before me so...according to his previous antics, he should have already broken that record. Considering his high scores, He should also have gotten a high score in this one. Or maybe he is weak in this field? '

She asked Genies about Athan, and one of the Genie made an awful face at her and snorted, " Don't talk to me about that brat. Anyway, there are still 12 hours left before his one-month deadline is over. So, before he broke the all-time high record, you broke it and got the rewards. "

" I see..." Linci nodded plainly before she spoke, " Then can you open the exit? "

" What about the reward of breaking the All-time high score record of this event? "

Linci shook her head as she responded plainly with an expressionless face, " Not interested. "

" Not interested? " Green Genies responded with a dumbfounded expression before they asked their brothers black and blue.

After asking them, It turned out that Linci didn't select any of the record-breaking rewards.

" Can you open the exit? "

Green Genie snapped out of his thought as he opened the exit with a weak smile, " Sure, Lass. Have a good day. "

" Good day, huh? " Linci muttered as she entered the door with a cold face.

...

After Linci came out, Some people congratulated her, to which she didn't respond as she doesn't like fake people more than those who clearly resents her.

But not even a minute later, Everyone got another notification.

[ The previous All-time high record of Wilderness Connect event has been broken by Athan Void. The current highest score of Wilderness Connect is 235,000. ]

A commotion arose due to this inside the Newbie Event Palace.

" Ridiculous! I feel like he is cheating. "

" Stop being a dumbass, idiot. You can't cheat in events. "

" Indeed, You can't cheat. In the first place, If he managed to cheat, it just shows how strong he is, and this score is well deserved. "

...

Linci, who had already left the event lobby of Wilderness Connect, was now in the main hall and looked at the big leaderboard where her name dropped down a rank, and Athan's name appeared at the 1st rank.

[ Newbie Leaderboard ]

Rank 1:- Athan Void

Rank 2:- Linci Crow.

Rank 3.....

Rank 4.....

...

She then continued to move towards the last event lobby after taking a glance at the leaderboard.

The 4th and Last event is known as [ Race To The Peak. ]

Athan also left the event lobby of Wilderness Connect and entered the event lobby of [ Race To The Peak. ]

Now, this lobby was the same as the first two lobbies.

After registering his entry, he glanced across the lobby and walked towards the only table with a single person sitting at it.

Obviously, the only one sitting alone at lobbies was Linci.

She was reading a book as usual and saw someone sitting across from her at the table.

" Athan. I already told you about my condition. You might be able to stay for two or three minutes, but no more than that. " Linci's face turned grim as she stated with a frown.

Athan sat down on the chair, ordered wine, and leaned back in the chair before speaking nonchalantly, " Chill. "

Linci was speechless and shook her head with a grim face, " Chill? Those wisps will chill your soul to death if you continue to stay for more minutes near me. "

But she was Athan just shaking his head as he once again spoke calmly, " Just read your book, girl. I won't die. "

" Humph, Fine. Suit yourself. " Linci coldly snorted and focused on attention on the book.

The exchange between them attracted other people's attention.

" That guy is courting death. "

" As if...He will probably stand up before a minute. "

" You dumbasses. Do you know who he is? "

" I think he is the current Rank 1 in Newbie Leaderboard, Athan Void. The rumors about his appearance have already spread, and that guy matches the description perfectly. "

" Indeed. He is Athan. I saw him in the event lobby of Hold the Fortress. "

" Hmmm...Ranking-wise, He already seems powerful than Linci, but...I heard that even Hill masters couldn't stay near her for a few minutes. Do you think that guy can do that? He is just a person in the Orderic Catastrophe phase like us. "

" Ehh...You are right. But look, He is carefreely drinking wine. Hehehe, Let's see how long he can last. "
