While Han Se-ah continued her peculiar stream, eyes tightly shut and head lowered on the table due to the distorted screen, I discreetly browsed the internet.

Seeing Han Se-ah's magic missile makes my heart ache.

I posted some advice on what magic she should learn next; after her hangover debuff wears off, of course.

Thanks to Irene's divine energy massage, she should recover soon.

What spells did mages use on the 21st floor with its cave terrain?

I tapped on the holographic internet window, trying to recall.

If I remember correctly, they fended off the vampire bats with wind magic.

Seeing Han Se-ah's magic missile makes my heart ache.

It's heart-aching to see her focus on damage after mentioning CC last time...

She should just use wind spells to disrupt flying and wall-climbing.

It's actually triggering seeing her forget her own words and think only of damage output instead of crowd control.

In the narrow caves, ice leaves behind fragments that hinder our vanguards as well.

When you're in a party, you should prioritize team synergy over damage output.

In the end, the principles haven't changed from the lower floors.

Don't obstruct allies, hinder the enemies, conserve your mana, and deliver a powerful blow when needed.

Regardless of whether the enemy stands on four legs, climbs walls with eight, or even flies, the basics remain the same.

Tanks block, swordsmen slash, and mages do what their fighters can't with their magic.

Ah, maybe it's thanks to the massage, but it seems the debuff is wearing off a bit. It's sad for Grace, but all we can do is cheer her on. Considering the amount she drank last night, it's impressive she made it this far. She could have stayed in bed, and no one would have blamed her for it.

While I was posting on the forum, Han Se-ah, whose debuff had somewhat worn off, managed to lift her head.

Of course, Grace, who genuinely overdrank, still had her head buried in the table.

Even Kaiden, typically stoic, looked restless, unable to leave Grace's side.

Honestly, one could mistake her for a zombie.

"...Should we give her a potion or something?"

"That might be best. Maybe The Alchemist's Guild sells a hangover recovery potion?"

Thus, with Irene's divine energy support and Kaiden's assistance, Grace was carried back to her lodgings like a sack of potatoes.

She had downed every drink offered to her, leading to her current state.

Left in the guild was a slightly groggy Han Se-ah and a completely sober me.

She gave me a questioning look.

"Umm... Are you waiting for me, Roland?

Im thinking of heading to the Magic Tower. How are you feeling? You need to learn new magic, and we need to claim our rewards for the 20th floor.

Oh, right.

-Did she forget?

-They should hurry and set up the gate already

-You're learning wind magic, right? Something like Air Blaster?

-Will they build it in just one day, like they did for the 10th-floor gate?

It seems she might have forgotten about the main quest rewards, perhaps because her encounter with the Goddess made a deep impression.

Well, a quest where the Goddess descends to reveal more about the tower does feel more like something out of a main quest.

Han Se-ah will likely receive skill points from the system rewards.

This time, perhaps we should get a quiver or something similar for Grace.

Kaiden has armor to be repaired still, and Irene will stick to her nun robes.

We could also upgrade Han Se-ah's equipment.

Im feeling better now thanks to Irene... Shall we head to the Magic Tower?

Yes. Even though the Knights Division and the Magic Tower are having a little scuffle, they shouldve reached a conclusion by now.

I suspect the Magic Tower mightve won that fight.

If the Knights Division won, what would they do about the gate for the 20th floor?

It wouldn't make sense to delay the main quest and remove a facility designed for the players.

Heroes Chronicle isnt known for such poor game design.

As if confirming my suspicion, a middle-aged mage with plump cheeks greeted us warmly when we mentioned 'Mage Hanna.'

Haha, welcome! You must be Mage Hanna and Senior Adventurer Roland, right?

The middle-aged mage, with an appearance resembling more of a kind-hearted chef than a mage, began to discuss our rewards, which were more generous than we expected.

Free access to the gate being constructed on the 20th floor was a given.

There were also various magical tools, enchanted equipment, and even a spellbook for Han Se-ah all for free.

The rewards were so lavish that even Han Se-ah seemed surprised.

Both she and her viewers were unanimously saying the rewards for the 20th floor were far more generous than those for the 10th.

Ahem, the original list of rewards was shorter, but I exerted some influence.

Oh, really? Your name is...

As the chat brought up theories about Han Se-ah being a major shareholder in BB Games and having insider benefits in Heroes Chronicle, the plump mage discreetly coughed, leaning in with a whisper.

While Han Se-ah was busy inspecting the equipment and responding to the viewers' comments, I began to chat with the mage.

If a simple conversation could earn the equivalent of several gold coins, why not?

"I don't have any ill intentions or plans to swindle the rewards."

Right, you're a mage who's curious and wants to commission some adventurers for your research, right?

Exactly, it seemed like your party is planning to climb further... Have you reached the 21st floor?

Yes, the gate isnt made yet, so we only briefly explored it.

With these words, the middle-aged mage brightened up.

His voice dropped even lower, his posture leaned further in, reminiscent of a shady merchant attempting a secret deal in a dark alley.

This caught Han Se-ah's attention, and she discreetly approached.

Even though we were in the reception room of the Magic Tower where no one should be eavesdropping, the three of us gathered closely, as if hatching a plot.

To the viewers, the scene of a handsome man, a beautiful woman, and a kind-looking middle-aged man all huddling in must've appeared comically suspicious.

-What, is this a drug deal? LOL

-Could he be scamming the rewards?

-They look so serious, what are they talking about?

-That smiling guy? He doesn't look the type to scheme anything.

Viewers commented, chuckling, assuming nothing significant would be discussed.

After all, he wasn't a high-ranking mage, just a mid-tier one in charge of distributing rewards.

I shared their sentiments until the mage, with a serious expression, continued.

Its not a big deal... but if you're planning to ascend past the 21st floor, I'd like you to collect various mosses from the caves."

That sounds simple enough.

Couldnt you have made this request through the guild?

Hehe, Miss Hanna, if I request through the guild, theyll take a commission. If we mages deal directly, we can avoid that."

At Han Se-ahs words, the middle-aged mage furrowed his brows in a peculiar manner.

While she was suspicious of his odd expression, her eyes widened upon discovering a system window.

She started reading intently, ignoring the mage who slunk away.

She either forgot to show her stream, or she was teasing her viewers, but only her eyes moving back and forth, left to right, were visible.

[ReadingAloneDuringStreamHanSeAh donated 5,000 won!]

Don't just look at the good stuff yourself, let's see it together!

What the, that message... hahaha!

Han Se-ah burst into laughter, caught off-guard by the text-to-speech*.

Then, as if she was a thief feeling guilty, she gestured to me.

In-game speech might be indecipherable to NPCs, but gestures and laughter aren't.

She began explaining to me.

"Roland, you know I picked up some alchemy, right?"

"Yeah, didn't you learn a bit when you made that wolf lure on the 10th floor?"

She subtly shifted her eyes and, pretending to sort out her thoughts, started sharing the quest window with the increasingly excited viewers.

[Intermediate mage Bastian is becoming increasingly concerned about his widening forehead]

[Can the moss found on the middle floors of the Tower be a miracle cure?]

"I've heard that moss from the 21st floor can be used for hair loss treatment... Is that true?"

"...I wouldn't know. I've never taken on such a request."

-Those with lush hair will never understand the feelings of a bald man

-When even magic fails, one must turn to alchemy

-A legendary, incurable condition

-I get that it's a side quest, but it feels a bit... off.

-I'm sorry, I was wrong. I'll wash you properly. It itches, but I won't scratch. Please come back, my dear hair.

So thats why he didn't make the request through the guild...
