Chaos erupted…
Instead of being sent to the first floor of the Rift as expected, some kind of error seemed to have occurred, and all the students were transported to a deep point within the Rift.
And if that wasn't enough to throw them into despair, the situation quickly worsened.
Surrounding the small group, twelve monsters came into view, they looked like giant praying mantises. These creatures were commonly found at that depth of the Rift and, more importantly, were classified as Rank A monsters.
In other words, they were enemies that, in theory, could only be defeated by a group of Rank A students or a highly skilled Rank S fighter. Though these classifications were somewhat arbitrary, these creatures were undeniably formidable foes.
Finally, emerging from the shadows behind the others, there was a colossal praying mantis, twice the size of the rest. Its carapace displayed an intimidating blood-red hue, while its deep black eyes emanated an aura of pure hostility.
