233 Eve of the tournament [1]

[98-F, Demon hunter guild, guild master office] 

"Young miss, thank god you're here!" 

Arriving at her father's office, Amanda found Maxwell rushing in her direction. His face was visibly distraught. 

"What's wrong?" 

Halting her footsteps, Amanda frowned. 

"Young miss, something terrible happened to the guild master" 

Amanda's heart sank when she heard those words. 

"...Father?" 

She tried her best to keep her calm. At least on the surface. 

"Investigating a potential energy spike coming from one of the <S > ranked dungeons that we own, fearing for the worst, the guild master decided to head in to check on the situation. Unfortunately..." 

Maxwell took a deep breath.

"Unfortunately, the dungeon desynced whilst the guild master was inside" 

"Ah..." 

Amanda took a step back. Her body turned cold. 

A dungeon desync was when the dungeon suddenly lost its connection to the human world.
