"All stats have reached their limit. It's time to advance to LV.5." Looking at his basic stats, Shirou was extremely satisfied. It had been over three months since he came here seeking strength. After more than three months of continuous effort, Shirou was finally about to reach the realm of a Level 1 adventurer, becoming a true powerhouse.

Now, he had the qualifications to engage in close combat with Servants. Plus, with his various armaments and Unlimited Blade Works, he could contend with most Servants. This new power brought him one step closer to saving his sister.

"Everyone, I can level up now." Hearing Shirou's words, the previously somewhat noisy conversations suddenly quieted down. Stunned by Shirou's announcement, everyone fell silent for a moment.

Finn was the first to react. Looking at Shirou, whose lips were slightly curved in a smile, Finn also said with joy, "Really? That's wonderful! Shirou's increase in strength is very important to us!"

"Indeed!"

"That's right!"

After Finn, Riveria and Gareth also expressed their opinions. For them, the stronger the Loki Familia became, the happier they were. Ais also walked over and offered Shirou her sincere congratulations.

"Congratulations, Big Brother!"

"Mm!"

The LV.6 adventurers naturally rejoiced at Shirou's progress. But for Bete and the others, their expressions were now somewhat distorted. Previously, Ais reaching LV.6 first had already made the three of them quite nervous. This led them to constantly train themselves hard, hoping to advance as quickly as possible. But now, not only had they not caught up to Ais, but Shirou had also caught up to them. Who could endure that?! Suddenly hearing the news of Shirou's impending advancement, their faces twisted with indignation. So frustrating!

Looking at the distorted faces of the three, Shirou smiled knowingly and said, "You all chat. I'll go level up first." With that, Shirou sat cross-legged on the ground and began his advancement. Looking at Shirou, whose back, where the divine blessing was located, emitted faint glows as he leveled up, the once talkative crowd suddenly fell silent.

They didn't quite know what to say.

It wasn't until Tsubaki returned, carrying the fangs and red scales dropped by the great red dragon, that the atmosphere livened up again.

"Tsubaki, don't worry. Since we've signed a contract, the materials obtained here are naturally yours."

"However, these things are too bulky and not suitable for immediate transport. Otherwise, it will affect our subsequent exploration. So, let's talk about these things when we return!" Hearing Finn's words, Tsubaki, though reluctant, put the materials aside and sat down to rest.

"Although the squad was split into two, we ultimately managed to conquer the 58th Floor. Our results are quite good."

"Hmph! As long as it's not the first time we've seen it, there's always a way." Hearing Riveria's exclamation, Bete said arrogantly, acting as if it was no big deal.

"You were panting like crazy just now though." Tiona, not giving Bete any face, immediately exposed him.

"That was you!" Hearing Bete's roar, everyone around couldn't help but laugh. For a moment, the previously tense atmosphere immediately relaxed.

After laughing along with everyone for a few moments, Tione noticed that Finn, as the captain, had not joined in the laughter but was quietly gazing at the passage to the 59th Floor. In his eyes, Tione saw deep caution.

"What's wrong, Captain?" Hearing Tione's question, the others who were resting also turned their attention. Leaning on his spear, Finn gazed at the passage to the 59th Floor, his mind in turmoil.

"According to the records left by the Zeus Familia, the 59th Floor should be the glacial region, right?"

"That's right. It's said that glacial lake water flows everywhere, making it difficult to advance, and the extreme cold will make the body sluggish."

"Fire Spirit Guard Cloths have been prepared. Although some were transferred to us by other Familias, we have enough for everyone, including the supporters." Hearing Finn and Tione's conversation, Raul also quickly reported on the relevant equipment.

Ignoring the reactions of the Familia members, Finn stared intently at the entrance to the passage with his emerald eyes. "The terrifying cold that can freeze the limbs of Level 1 adventurers... if that's the case, why haven't we felt any signs of it now? We're already standing at this entrance!" Hearing Finn's analysis, everyone was startled. Indeed, if the 59th Floor was truly as the Zeus Familia records stated, the terrifying cold would inevitably reach the entrance on the 58th Floor.

But they were currently stationed there and felt no cold whatsoever. Having understood Finn's analysis, everyone gripped their weapons and became alert.

"So, has something changed?"

"I don't know, but I don't think the Zeus Familia would exaggerate." Gareth said, looking at the silent passage entrance. Listening to everyone's conversation, Ais suddenly recalled what Revis had told her on the 24th Floor about twenty days ago.

"Aria, go to the 59th Floor!"

"Something interesting is happening there right now. You can find out what you want to know." Facing the deep, dark cave ahead, Ais tightly gripped her sword.

"Captain, what should we do next?"

"Forget the Fire Spirit Guard Cloths. Everyone get ready. Once Shirou updates his stats, we'll depart immediately!"

"I'm done!" Hearing Finn's words, Shirou slowly stood up from the ground.

"You've reached LV.5 already?"

"That's right, I'm a Level 5 adventurer now!" Finn smiled. Shirou's advancement was perfectly timed for them.

"Then the orders change. Everyone rests for three minutes, then we depart immediately!"

"Yes!" Hearing Finn's command, everyone became tense. They understood that a major battle was about to begin. This was not just a new floor exploration, but also a confrontation with those who harbored conspiracies against Orario. Silently adjusting their equipment, everyone made their final preparations. Meanwhile, Lefiya, who had been watching Shirou, quietly approached him and whispered,

"What's wrong, Big Brother? You seem a little off."

"Do I?"

Hiding the slight melancholic expression that had appeared on his face, Shirou smiled and said, "It's just because I'm happy about becoming stronger."

"Is it because you leveled up to LV.5?"

"No, it's because I have new magic!"
