“WHAT!!!!!!!! A YEAR, WE LOST A WHOLE YEAR!” Cynrik blurted loudly with spittle flying from his mouth, causing the translucent being to lean back and dodge.

Breathing heavily, Cynrik stared at the translucent being with bloodshot eyes.

“Indeed, as unfortunate as it may seem, the moment you and your party stepped foot in this Instance, time accelerated significantly. As a result, you have spent an entire year within the confines of this Dungeon instance even though the actual time exerted on your life span is still only a single day.” The Central System projection calmly stated, giving Cynrik another glance.

“UGHHH, damn it all, that means we technically failed the **ing exam. GRAH, stupid **ing Wadbitch, and her stupid **ing games.” Tearing at his hair in anger, Cynrik spoke his thoughts out loud, making the members of his party stare at him expressionlessly.

“Calm down, Cyn, we will figure it out when we get back, don’t forget we’ve had the Exam tokens on us this whole time; take some solace, at least in the fact that Mom and Dad won’t obliterate us when we step outside.

Brance’s comment made Cynrik lock up as his eyes nearly rolled back into his head at the thought of how Cinyah would react when they left the Egress. He could picture the abuse he would suffer at her “loving” hands. Disappearing for a whole year within an Egress blew the entire Haylons Shadow event out of the water, and that in itself was a major stroke of bad luck in their mother’s eyes.

COUGH, the Central System projection cleared its throat, bringing the focus back on itself again, and began speaking.

“As I stated, you will all be receiving Orange Egress Grade reward Chests as clear rewards. I will distribute them now.” Then, with a wave of its ethereal hand and a few words in a strange language that even the brother’s proficiency skill couldn’t understand, four large golden chests manifested in front of each member of MyrkLys.

Cynrik went wide-eyed as he read the received notification.

-You have received a Special Grade Tier-2 Golden Chest.-

“Although I can not guarantee the rewards, I can inform you that you will receive something useful upon opening these chests. The random item list for chests above Silver Grade are specifically tailored to the one opening it. Therefore, anything that comes out will be based on their Class, Affinity, or miscellaneous item.”

“Now then, since I have rectified the crisis to the best of my ability, all that is left is to designate the active quests you received as completed so that the Central Hub can deliver their proper rewards. Once this is achieved, you will all be teleported to where the entrance of this Egress once stood. This is the extent of the assistance I am able to administer.”

Snapping its fingers once again caused all the members of MyrkLys to flinch as the last time it did so; a Deity was exploded, their vision lit up with notifications.
