The advancement to Tier 1 meant a huge thing. It was a clear distinction between things, just like the beginner rank and the common rank.

Tier 0 was the mortal realm, and starting from Tier 1, where the number represented the existence of something, it was the extraordinary realm. 

When one ascends to Tier 1, many things will get a boost; especially the class-specific stats and the health points, as you can see. 

This was his current stats right now:

For the time, he had done many things, which include getting a title and also renewing his items. 

However, leveling up wasn't as easy as before. As seen above, it requires 10k exp to reach the next level now. That would need him to grind for quite some time with each level up making this exp requirement go higher and higher. 

But that wasn't his focus now. He should immediately head towards the forgotten ruins of the Archaic. 

But before that, the mana potions; he was running low on them. 

...

"Should we really be waiting here? What if he comes along with the guild?" 

"I'm sure he wouldn't come along with his guild. After all, this place is extremely precious, and if he reports it, he could only acquire a small benefit before not being able to enter this place later on." 

"But then, to get a second-rate official status within a first-rate guild such as Fire Phoenix, he could've already sold this information to them! What if the guild is already guarding that place and detects us?" 

"I've already checked its surroundings, and no one was there. Besides, we are hidden; even if they kill us, they won't know who we are. We'll only lose a level and an item if we fail, while if we succeed, we could get that traitor to quit this game! What is there to worry about?" 

"... Alright, I guess..." within a forest, one could see two people hidden in robes traveling while carrying a torch. It was weird though, as the sun was still shining brightly above them. 

The torch's light wasn't even any use to them. 

However, a few minutes later, when the couple entered a dark tunnel, the torch soon displayed its use. 

The tunnel was pitch black with no source of light. Within the darkness, only the torch could illuminate light to the area forward.

But beyond the torch's radius was the unknown darkness. 

It was just as if a monster would lunge out of that darkness and attack them. It was rather creepy. 

...

1 hour before.

[Enter the Forgotten Ruins of the Archaic? Y/N]

Right in front of Cylius now was a black door that had the drawing of a colossal snake eating its tail. The snake had a shining white eye that was contrasting with the dark, black color of the door.

At the core of the picture, within the circle of the snake, was a gray star. It looked quite similar to the star Cylius saw but ultimately, it was different.

Within the picture, hordes of demons were surrounding the snake and worshipping it.

Each of these demons had an explicit feature, red skin and giant horns. Along with that, the picture only slightly showed their faces, but their deformed, malicious face was clear to all.

This was the content of the picture. On the giant black door that was about five meters in height, it was positioned right in the middle of it, fitting just right. 

Along that picture was only the symbol of a winged serpent that had its eyes on him. 

Whatever direction he moved, the winged serpent's eyes would also follow, making it rather creepy. 

"Yes"
