It took a week for Izuku, Sugimoto, and Ichirou to complete the preparations for establishing a guild. While Sugimoto and Ichirou were dealing with the association leaders and the necessary documents, Izuku contacted the people they wanted to invite to join their guild.

Izuku had to go back and forth between the association office and the meeting place of everyone he contacted. Not all of his talks were successful, some refused despite all the advantages he offered, but most accepted since they knew Izuku.

After finishing his work, Izuku was lying down on his bed. He may not be physically tired, but his mind was quite drained. Apart from his mental exhaustion, he didn't have time to rest, he still had some work to do.

Izuku then got up from his bed and went to his desk. There was still a stack of documents to work on his desk. He has arranged the documents from the most important to the least important. All he had to do was make a report and send it to Sugimoto.

Izuku spent the whole night making a report and sent it the next morning. Seeing Izuku coming in the morning made Sugimoto a bit worried.

" I didn't expect you to finish this quick, as if you were being chased by something, what are you rushing about? "

" Well, to be honest, I have something to do, by the way, Sugimoto-san, is there an unfinished gate? "

" Gate? why so sudden? "

" It's just that I feel stiff after dealing with some paperwork lately and need some workout "

" Don't you force yourself too much, at this point you will probably fall before you know it "

" I understand my condition best, besides that I'm fine "

" Well, if that's the case, there are indeed some newly entered gate lists, do you want to take it? "

" Of course, I'll take it "

Izuku spends his weekend cleaning the gate he requested from Sugimoto. He managed to get permission to enter the gate alone after hours of negotiations. The gates all had different ranks, ranging from C-rank to A-rank. He did this to prepare for the upcoming quest.

Currently, he was inside an A-rank gate that looked like an underwater cave inside. The enemies in the dungeon were an army of monsters that looked like Dragons with blue armored skin. With a trident as a weapon.

Despite being surrounded by enemies, Izuku remained calm. Compared with what he has faced so far, this is nothing. He summoned his soldiers and the clash between the two forces occurred in an instant.

Every Izuku soldier performed outstandingly, especially his strongest one. Tank and Beru ruthlessly tear their enemies to pieces, Iron smashes his enemies to pieces, Tusk scorches enemy forces with his fire magic, Baruka slashes his enemies viciously, and Igris sends lightning with each attack after receiving King Baran's long sword from his master.

Izuku didn't even have to do anything since his soldiers took care of everything. As the result, it didn't take long for them to reach the boss's room.

Feeling too dependent on his soldiers, he recalls back all his soldiers except those who work on collecting magic stones to deal with the boss himself. He did this so that he would not lose his touch.

Izuku took out his two daggers and then rushed toward the boss. He cut the boss's head in half with just one strike. He tried not to damage the monster's body too much since he planned to sell it to the workshop.

After returning the dagger to his inventory, he cleaned up his clothes while staring at the screen in front of him.

Ring~

[You have killed the dungeon boss]

[You Leveled Up]

[You have reached level 101]

[Your job-specific skills have leveled up]

Izuku looked at the screen floating in front of him with anticipated eyes.

[Skill: 'Shadow Ekstraction' Has Leved Up]
[Skill: 'Save Shadow' Has Leved Up]
[Skill: 'Domain of The Monarch' Has Leved Up]
[Skill: 'Shadow Exchange' Has Leved Up]

Seeing this chain notification made Izuku smile. Especially when he sees the reduction in cooldown time as he reads the description window.

[Skill: Shadow Exchange LV.2]
Job Specific Skills
No Mana Needed

The 'player' can switch places with one of his calls. After activation, the 'Player' must wait for 2 hours to use the skill again. The cooldown period will change according to the skill level.

Assuming that the cooldown time would decrease as he leveled up, he turned his gaze back to the monster's body and then approached the body.

" Arise!... "

Black smoke slowly rose from the monster's body followed by a black hand rising from it. The familiar sight of the new shadow warrior awakening figure made him smile. This marked the end of today's raid, but before he left...

' Now... how do I get this out. Should I use my soldiers or... '

He stopped thinking and walked to the monster's corpse. He then opened his inventory and dragged the monster's body into his inventory. Regardless of size and weight, Izuku didn't have any trouble doing it. The moment the monster's body touched the system screen, it was directly sucked into the storage space.

After the monster's body completely disappeared, Izuku then checked the item information in his inventory and saw that the monster's body had been stored in his inventory.

' I didn't expect this to work... Just because I've never tried it, doesn't mean it can't '

Izuku is satisfied with the new possibility he just discovered. After putting away all the magic stones he collected into his inventory as well, he walked out of the gate. As usual, outside agents are waiting for him.

" Hunter Izuku thanks for your hard work "

" Thanks for your hard work too, Fujimori-san "

Izuku then handed the magic stone he had collected to Fujimori. Fujimori just received it with a formal smile on his face even though he was nervous about the S-rank standing in front of him.

Izuku watched as his smile continued to twitch. He just maintained his smile and quickly finished the report. After finishing his report, he then left the gate location and headed to his home in a car that had been prepared by the agency.

When he got home, he immediately rested, preparing for the raid the next day. Izuku kept repeating this pattern for several days until the day of the quest arrived.

Izuku sat in his room while staring at the screen floating in front of him. There are still a few hours before the quest begins. He just picked up his jacket and prepared to go out.

On the way, he met Todoroki who seemed to have just returned from the dungeon. You can see from the hem of his robe that is slightly charred and the fresh burns on his hands. Izuku then greeted him like a good friend.

" Oh! Todoroki-san, did you just finish your raid? "

" Sort of, by the way, where did you go? I thought you didn't have any raid schedule today "

" I have somewhere I had to go "

" I see, good luck"

" Of course, "

After exchanging conversations, Izuku and Todoroki separated. The two of them headed in different directions. Izuku walked out with his face covered in his hood.

Since his face was revealed to the public, he had a hard time getting out because the crowd would recognize him and immediately surround him. So he had no choice but to hide his face and also his presence.

After going around for a while, Izuku decided to stop at the top of a building. Before his eyes, lay a view of the city filled with skyscrapers, but other than that his eyes were only focused on the screen floating in front of him.

[Item: Key of The Cartenon Temple]
Class Item:?
Type: Key

A key that allows you to enter the Temple of Cartenon. This item can be used at the specified gate. The location of the gate will be revealed after a certain period has passed.

Remaining Time: 0 hours, 1 minute, 2 seconds

There is only one minute left until the time is up. He held the key to the Cartenon Temple while closing his eyes.

As the timer reached the last second, Izuku opened his eyes, revealing his glowing blue eyes. And when the time was up, the light shone from the key in his hand.

In the field close to a school, several people in suits gathered there. There was a gate that appeared there and the people gathered there were bureau agents on duty and some citizens who were watching.

Izuku who was watching from a distance walked towards them. One of the agents saw Izuku approaching them, he immediately tried to stop Izuku since he didn't recognize him at first.

" Sorry sir, you can't get close to this place "

Izuku then unveiled his jacket which made the agent stiffen for a moment at the sight of Izuku's face.

" H-Hunter Izuku?! "

Everyone's eyes widened as soon as they heard Izuku's name being called. People's attention was immediately drawn to him.

Izuku, who received the attention, could only accept it with a slightly annoyed face, but he managed to hide it well. He ignored people's attention and turned his attention back to the agent in front of him.

" How long has it been since this gate appeared? "

" i-it's been two days sir "

" Two days you said? "

" Yes, sir "

Izuku gritted his teeth, he didn't expect the location to be at the gate that appeared.

" Is there any raid team that has entered the gate already?"

"Yes, it's been two hours since they entered the gate"

' damn it '

Seeing that Izuku's expression didn't look good, the agent tried to approach him and asked if something was wrong.

" Um, Hunter Izuku is there anything wrong? "

" This raid was canceled "

" Pardon?... "

" The raid team is in danger. If we don't stop the raid, everyone will die. "

" W-wait Hunter Izuku, what do you mean? Sir... Sir... "

Regardless of what the agent said to him, Izuku walked straight through the gate. He had only one worry in his mind, he was worried about being a victim in that place. It is enough for him to feel the horror, there is no need for others to be victims.

Izuku entered the gate, he walked through the inside of the dungeon which was already filled with monster corpses and traces of battle. Looking at the more and more monster corpses, he was sure that the raid team had already arrived in the boss room. Izuku quickened his pace even more, and sure enough, as he approached the boss's room he could see people gathered in front of a large door.

Those people are the raid team that Izuku is looking for.

The raid team stood at the door curiously looking at the door in front of them.

" What's with this giant door? "

" Is this possible in the boss's room? "

" Why don't we open it "

These people were so preoccupied with themselves that no one noticed Izuku walking toward them. Izuku then opened his mouth to reveal his presence.

" If I were you, I wouldn't open it. "

The assault team immediately averted their eyes when they heard an unfamiliar voice from behind. They could see a man wearing a black jacket walking towards them. They couldn't see their faces because it was too dark to see.

Knowing an unknown person was approaching them with a faint presence, they became wary.

" Who are you? "

" Identify yourself! "

The raid team gripped their weapons tightly, wary of strangers approaching them. Seeing their reaction, Izuku couldn't help but sigh and reveal his identity.

" Someone who came to rescue you "

Izuku said that while taking off the hood of his jacket. The attacking team that recognized him late was shocked as soon as they saw his face.

" S-S-Rank Hunter, Izuku!?..."

" What are you doing here? "

" There is a terrible danger lies behind that door "

The raid team looked at Izuku with confused eyes.

" How do you know? "

" Let's just say I'm the double dungeon survivor "

" Double dungeon? Do you mean this is the Double Dungeon? "

" sort of "

Ignoring the raid team who was still processing what Izuku had just said, Izuku just walked past them towards the door. He then touched the surface of the door while staring at it.

' The door is locked '

There is a window screen floating in front of him.

[The door of the Kartenon Temple is currently locked]

[Please use the key]

Izuku then took out the key and placed it in the keyhole. He then turned it and heard a click from the door and after that, the door opened by itself.

Seeing that the door opened by itself, the raid team was shocked by it.

"T-the door is open?!"

" How? "

Hearing this, Izuku remembered that the raid team was still behind him.

" I'm going to take over from here, you guys should come back from here "

" But Hunter Izuku, this dungeon is assigned to our team, you have no right to send us off "

" That's right, just because you're an S-Rank doesn't mean you can order us around "

" And you are?... "

" I'm Aoki Takahiro A-rank Hunter, I'm the leader of this team "

Izuku looked back at the raid team that had been provoked by their leader's words. He couldn't help but sigh as he heard this kind of reaction.

" Well then, whoever wants to come in I won't stop you, you can do it as you like "

With confidence that had somehow been rebuilt, Aoki stepped into the room. There is a screen floating above the door that only Izuku can see.

Ring~

[Someone has entered the Temple without a key]

[Entry Not Allowed]

Aoki looked around the dark room and when he turned his gaze to the side, he was startled by a giant knight statue swinging his giant sword at him. Aoki couldn't react in time, but fortunately, Izuku immediately grabbed his armor collar and threw him out of the room.

Aoki, who was still shocked, looked back at the place where he stood just now. The statue's sword was still stuck on the floor and as the statue lift its sword, they could see the destruction it had created.

Seeing this, the faces of Aoki and his raid team turned pale. Izuku casually glanced at those who were still in shock.

" There will be more inside. Do you still insist on going in? "

The raid team immediately shook their heads in unison. Izuku turned to leave them, but before he could leave, Izuku glanced at them and then opened his mouth.

" Look, I want you guys to leave this dungeon and contact the association, tell them that a double dungeon has appeared."
