"T-THRONE ROOM!!"
A sudden shriek echoed through the white ribbon, splitting everyone's attention.
An unfortunate handful of Damnedlings were distracted by the voice, cursing at its owner for bringing doom upon them.
Their furious thoughts naturally didn't last for long. They perished the next second.
At the same time, the golden tip of a black blade plunged deep into the chest of a tall wraith.
[You have slain an (Elite) [Underworld] Swordspawn [3] levels lower than you! Calculating experience point rewards…]
[You've obtained 27,350 Experience Points!]
[You've obtained (2) Demon Essence.]
Daru quickly jumped back.
He was about to clarify the situation, but Caleb beat him to it:
"What do you mean throne room?! Where?!"
It wasn't the most graceful and composed way of asking a question, especially for a commander, but it had urgency, at least.
"I see a huge door on the fourth floor! It has the insignia of a black crown on it! I think…I think it's the throne room!"
