'Huh? It's gone,' He said internally as he could no longer sense the power from a moment ago.

The vicinity also returned to tranquility.

Now not only was Gustav left wondering where the power from a while ago came from but he was also wondering where it dissapeared to as well as the being he devoured in the last floor.

"Hmm commander Cilia, what are you doing here?" Gustav voiced out with a suspicious tone as he looked around.

He could also see several guards scattered around the place. They all stared at Gustav with looks of shock and astonishment like they couldn't believe what they were seeing.

'What was that power he exuded a while ago?' Thoughts similar to this ran through everyone's mind.

"Are you okay?" Commander Cilia blurted out as she moved closer to Gustav.

"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" Gustav responded while squinting his eyes.

"HOW DID YOU SURVIVE KID?" Tabitha asked with a tone of disbelief.

"Didn't I tell you I would," Gustav said while walking towards the altar area.

He sat at the edge as his mind reeled a bit. He could feel a weird sense of fatigue washing over him.

"I wonder why the MBO would place such a dangerous being on one of the floors though? Are you guys really trying to end the existence of the cadets?" Gustav asked with a light chuckle.

Commander Cilia face lightly paled as she heard that. She arrived in front of Gustav with a worried look, "What happened in the last floor?"

"Well, I'm here so what do you think happened?" Gustav answered with a question of his own.

"You survived so does that mean it let you go?" Commander Cilia asked because she was still haven't a hard time constructing what could have happened internally.

Even someone as powerful as she was needed to go in there with a token to prevent the being from devouring her existence so she could not understand how Gustav managed to pull it off except it let him go.

"Let me go? Pfft," Gustav laughed lightly after hearing that.

"Do you think such a being would be willing to just let me go?" Gustav asked.

Knowing the personality of this being, Commander Cilia herself knew well that such a thing happening was practically impossible but what other explanation would there be for this.

"KID YOU DEVOURED IT DIDN'T YOU?" Tabitha seemed to know what had happened already as he stared at Gustav from up above.

"Devoured it? Impossible!" Commander Cilia stated with a look of disbelief.

"It's name was Cohilia... I have seen its memories. Jack imprisoned it here when it came down to earth causing havoc in a bid to find someone," Gustav narrated.

'Me...' He said Internally.

Commander Cilia couldn't believe her ears as Gustav narrated what Cohilia was and it's various experiences with other planets it had visited.

According to records that had been hidden to the world, Cohilia had devoured the existences of alien creatures on different planets. It would devour planets and solar systems when it didn't get what it wanted.

This was information that only a few knew in the MBO, it had been hidden to everyone else.

When it came to earth to do the same, it encountered Jack and wasn't powerful enough to end Jack. Jack ended up defeating it and sealing it here instead.

"Why did Jack seal it here?" Gustav asked.

"No one was ever meant to reach this part of the dungeon. Sir Jack constructed this whole dungeon using his space construct and sealed it in the last floor. At the time it seemed like the best thing to do considering no cadet would ever be powerful enough to surpass the 42nd floor except they were not cadets but full fledged officers," Commander Cilia stated.

"NO, YOU'RE WRONG," Tabitha suddenly cut her off.

"Huh?" Commander Cilia had a slightly confused expression as she looked up at him.

"NO ONE WAS EXPECTED TO EVER REACH THIS STAGE EXCEPT IT WAS THE PERSON WHO COHILIA CAME LOOKING FOR IN THE FIRST PLACE. WHEN JACK STOPPED COHILIA IN THE PAST HE FOUND OUT ITS MOTIVE DUE TO READING IT'S MEMORIES. HE PLACED COHILIA HERE NOT ONLY TO IMPRISON IT BUT ALSO FOR THE PERSON WHO COHILIA CAME IN SEARCH OF TO BE REVEALED ONE DAY AND NOW WE FINALLY KNOW WHO THAT PERSON IS," Tabitha said while squatting bringing his face level close to Gustav's.

Commander Cilia's eyes widened slightly as she heard this.

Gustav's entire body was like an ant before Tabitha's gigantic head as both of them locked eyes.

"WHO ARE YOU KID?" Tabitha asked with a strong but wary tone.

"What does it matter?" Gustav responded with an unfazed tone.

"I NEED TO KNOW WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE A THREAT TO THE EXISTENCE OF EARTH," Tabitha stated.

"Well it's kinda the opposite and I almost got erased on the other floor so I really don't know what you're talking about when you say I'm the one it's been looking for," Gustav voiced out.

"HMM SO WHAT HAPPENED TO IT, DID YOU OR DID YOU NOT DEVOUR COHILIA?" Tabitha asked.

"I don't know what happened but I won the battle," Gustav shrugged his shoulders while responding.

Gustav didn't want to admit to anyone that the Cohilia was here to find him because he didn't know what actions the MBO might take.

It was already obvious that he won whatever battle that happened on the last floor so he couldn't lie about that but he had decided he would deny till the very end that Cohilia was here to find him.

"YOU SHOULD INFORM JACK SO HE CAN COME INSPECT THIS KID HIMSELF. I DON'T TRUST HIM," Tabitha said to Commander Cilia.

"Enough of this. I have cleared all the floors and I am now heading back to my room to rest, I am tired," Gustav said while standing to his feet.

He truly was feeling fatigued but it was mostly mentally. It had been no less than twelve hours since he embarked on the journey to clear all the floors.

He was able to accomplish that but now he needed good rest as well as time to digest everything that had happened.

Fwhiioooo~

Tabitha blew an icy breeze that left Gustav frozen in the next instant when he was about to take another step forward.

"YOU SHOULD ISOLATE HIM TILL JACK FINISHES INSPECTING HIM," Tabitha said after freezing Gustav.

"Unfreeze him," Commander Cilia commanded.

"WHAT? I DID THAT TO HELP YOU GUYS, DON'T TELL ME YOU WANT TO LET HIM GO?" Tabitha voiced out with a tone of annoyance.

"Do you even know who he is?" Commander Cilia asked.

"This kid is the valued student of young Miss Aimee, unless you want her to come down here and blast you to pieces I suggest you unfreeze him now," Commander Cilia stated.

"THE YOUNG MIXEDBLOOD WHO CAN CONTEND AGAINST JACK?" Tabitha asked.

"Yes, this is her student. Which is one of the reasons he is so skilled. The MBO doesn't mess with him because we believe if anything goes wrong with him, she will be able to stop him herself. I suggest you refrain from doing anything stupid that would incur her wrath," Commander Cilia explain.

"GEEZ THAT YOUNG BLOOD IS SCARY. HMPH! ALRIGHT BUT MAKE SURE YOU TELL JACK TO INSPECT HIM FOR ABNORMALITIES. WHO KNOWS IF WE HAVE A TICKING TIME BOMB ON OUR HANDS," Tabitha said before blowing out breeze from his mouth again.

Gustav got freed in the next instant and turned to look at Tabitha with an irritated look.

"He doesn't need to be in isolation for that," Commander Cilia said before turning around to leave with Gustav.

"Gustav you have to keep everything that has happened here a secret. Please do not inform anyone about the things you have witnessed in this floor as well as the last," Commander Cilia said as they walked away.

"Sure sure, y'all just make sure you have a good compensation for me to keep my mouth shut. This shouldn't be in a cadet's dungeon in the first place," Gustav responded without any sign of being intimidated by all that had happened.

Commander Cilia had a wry look on her face as she responded to Gustav.

Minutes later they arrived at the entrance of the dungeon which was crowded with lots of cadets. Barely any cadet was moving in, most of them just stood by the entrance like they were waiting for something.

The moment Commander Cilia arrived with Gustav their eyes locked onto them.

-"Isn't that Gustav?

-"Is he part of the group that cleared the 42nd floor?"

-"Where are the rest of them?"

They instantly recognized Gustav and a lot of them were astonished but felt it also made sense since it was Gustav.

They wondered where the rest of the group was as they watched Gustav walk out alone with just Commander Cilia and the guards who initially followed here in.

"Hey Gus," Gustav heard a familiar voice call out to him from the side.
