On the night of the playoffs, everything else in Oukiwa except Uptown was as silent and empty as ever. The city stopped to watch the thrilling battles. Boats were forbidden to dock in the harbors, and the gates of the great walls were closed.

On the border between the poorer neighborhoods, dozens of Chaos Followers moved between the alleys, wearing the usual black cloaks to disguise their identities. Still, they seemed to be more nonchalant on this particular night than usual.

"What are you guys stalling for? Hurry up and load it up!" shouted a man who appeared to be the leader of a group pushing a wagon.

For the Chaos Followers, it didn\'t matter if any citizen would see them because even if the city guards were alerted, they wouldn\'t be able to react in time. However, if these occultists knew that an S-Class was staring angrily at them in an alley parallel to that street, they would surely change their minds.

As soon as Alexis Dmitry saw that these hooded men were carrying a huge metal drum, she moved to act, but Matthew held her by the arm.

"What are you doing?" He whispered to her.

"We can avoid major damage and still pick up information." The S-Class tried to argue.

Matthew brought his right hand up to his face and huffed, impatient. "If we do something, we\'ll get in the way. If you warned Ayumi Yamazaki, she must have taken action."

"I know, but… we don\'t know what they are doing or where they are going. They could end up killing people."

The short man, whose beard was full of white strands, just denied it and bowed his head. "You can do whatever you want... I will go to the location the \'Oracle\' gave us."

Then Matthew started walking to the abandoned buildings, which were only a few blocks away if they used the shortcut through the alleys. The half-dragon looked at the man and looked at the hooded figures in the street.

On the walls of alleys like this, it wasn\'t uncommon to find graffiti with apologia for the occult, the Chaos Followers, or Chaos itself, and it scared Alexis a little.

\'I have already warned the Church about the connection of the Demons with the Chaos Followers and they must be acting somehow... What am I doing? I just need to keep the promise I made to Luke, and then maybe I\'ll have a chance with...\'

When Alexis found herself thinking of kinky things with Luke again, she scolded herself with a slap to her face.

"I need to stop thinking that way... He and I are just friends... for now."

Motivated to help find the half-wolf\'s friends again, Alexis ran after Matthew, who was relieved to have her close again. Whether intentional or not, the S-Class had a frightening aura.

Thus, they approached the vicinity of the third and last Dungeon discovered in Oukiwa. There were few houses around, and most buildings were warehouses, stores, or taverns. Because it wasn\'t as large as the Dungeon of the Upper Town, this one needed less protection, and on the night of the Tournament of Legends, the number of guards was even lower.

As soon as they approached the area interdicted by high wooden fences, Alexis threw Matthew over and jumped.

"Are you okay?" Alexis asked him after hearing that he didn\'t landed well.

"Don\'t worry, at least I didn\'t break my one arm."

The appearance of the abandoned site they were in was intriguing, to say the least. Matthew had expected a hole with carvings piled up around it, but in reality, he found only a tiny pure metal lid, which appeared to be a bit heavy.

Next to this metal lid were several signs with the words \'Do not enter\'; Alexis didn\'t mind them and quickly lifted the metal lid.

"Would you rather I go first?" She inquired, seeing that the sewers were pitch black.

Matthew approached the hole with the side stairs, saw the darkness, and wondered if his friends were inside. Although Zack was the oldest and the biggest of the bunch, he was still terrified of the dark, but John still had the power of persuasion to convince him.

"Please go ahead," Matthew spoke to the half-dragon.

She nodded and muttered to herself: "<Divine Radiance>."

A sphere of light appeared over Alexis\' right hand, slightly yellowish and with a ring around it as if there was a small piece of the sun in the half-dragon\'s palm.

Matthew had few opportunities to see a Gene Skill so closely, so he was fascinated for a second and walked away. Alexis didn\'t mind this fearful behavior and jumped into the dark hole. The instant she landed, she heard the wet rustling and dripping of water from the sewer.

\'Apparently, these sewer pipes are not totally abandoned...\' Alexis thought and then shouted to Matthew: "You can come down, there\'s nothing here!"

Matthew entered the sewer like an average person, unlike the woman, going down the side ladder. The sewer ducts were large tunnels with enough area for three tall people to walk freely through them if there were any problems.

And although Oukiwa had a colossal sanitation system, it was strange that there was water in a building that had been abandoned for so many years. The walls were full of mold, but there was no moss, which meant water didn\'t get there even during rainy seasons.

"Something seems wrong here..." Alexis alerted Matthew, who looked both ways down the dark hallway and was disappointed that his friends didn\'t greet him.

"W-what do you wh-what do you mean by that? M-monsters?" Since this was the first time Matthew had seen the S-Class with the strained voice, that was the only thing he could think.

"I don\'t know... Luke found those monsters. Is that old woman called \'Oracle\' really reliable?"

"I d-don\'t know. That was the first time I got a piece of information from her."

The tunnel was so long that it was impossible for the glow of the half-dragon\'s ability to illuminate everything. For a few seconds, Matthew and Alexis were quiet, and only the water drops falling could be heard until a hand reached for the S-Class sphere of light and turned it off.
