The next day the twins woke up early despite sleeping later than usual due to Mark allowing them to play Mario Three on the Nintendo Entertainment System. Both boys were excited at the prospect of going to the Culano Dungeon's first floor. The twins barged in on Mark’s door waking him up forcefully.

“Mark wake up! We’re going to Culano dungeon!” Isaac shouted.

“We’re going to see the fishmen and other sea monsters!” Aaron added gleefully.

The twins jumped in on Mark’s bed hitting his torso.

“Uumph, boys calm down. I haven’t even spoken to anyone yet to get permission.”

“Are you talking about those old men who took candies, donuts, and pizzas from us for free? I’m sure they will agree since they have taken so much food and you’re a powerful wizard able to summon a dragon,” Isaac said.

Mark was impressed at how intelligent and eloquent the twins were and they were only seven years old. He was sure that they would become powerful mages someday.

“Regardless, I will still need to talk to them first.”

“Okay just get up now and talk to them. Milena already prepared breakfast for us. Can we bring some of our friends with us like Deo?” Aaron asked.

“Sure, I’ll talk with Hamil and ask for his permission. You can only bring up to three more friends including Deo and you will have to ask Milena to get their parent's permission first.”

The three then went to where their breakfast was laid out but when they arrived in the dining room cum kitchen, Rendira was waiting for them.

“Your tutor is here, I guessed we have to cancel our dungeon tour since you have to study,” Mark teased the twins.

Both boys suddenly looked dismayed and looked at Mark with huge pleading eyes which made him laugh. They already knew how to use their cuteness and were never hesitant to take advantage of it.

“You can only use that technique when you're young,” Mark said while laughing.

“I don’t know. Milena said that when we’re older will become handsome men and we’ll be able to charm anyone,” Aaron said absently.

Mark looked at the twins scandalously for a moment, not knowing how to respond to that. He then turned to Rendira.

“Good morning Rendira. Can we skip the kid's study today? We’re planning to go on the first floor of the Culano Dungeon as a vacation since we wanted to take a look at the monsters there.”

Rendira laughed heartily.

“Only you will bring the boys to somewhere dangerous as a vacation. Well since you’re powerful enough to protect them, I don’t see any problem with that. If that’s the case let me go back to my cart since I have a lot of chores I will need to complete.”

The boys said goodbye to their teacher, and they all started eating breakfast.

“So, you’re going to continue your plan to go to the first floor of the dungeon with the kids. I’m glad that my group will go directly to the second floor then. Today we will follow Totin’s lead since he’s assigned as our group leader today,” Nedertu said, and Mark remembered Lorendo’s assistant. He guessed that the assistant was the same age as Sunetta.

“What do you mean that you’re glad that you’re on the second floor already? What will happen if you’re still on the first floor?”

“Every day, the schedule to enter the dungeon is around ten in the morning and only up to five groups of people per floor are allowed. You don’t need to worry about having no spot. The first floor is almost always not full and even if it is, I’m quite sure that they would be able to squeeze you in. Nobody wants to offend a wizard who can summon a dragon.”

After breakfast, Mark told the twins to go ahead and invite three of their friends to their adventure on the first floor of the Culano dungeon and he asked Milena to accompany the kids so she could ask their parent’s permission.

Mark went to Hamil to ask for assistance in speaking with the leaders of the village to get permission for him and the kids to go to the first floor of the dungeon. He was told that Hamil was in the dragon roller-coaster section. He remembered that they had not settled the name for the dragon yet and Hamil was still collecting votes but due to the twin's interference, most of the circus people were already calling the dragon “Yoda”.

Mark just shrugged to himself, bowed to the inevitable, and thought that at least it was not Chewbacca. He was guessing that the people from the circus were just indulging the twins since all of them knew who Yoda was since all of them had seen the Star Wars movies.

“Hamil, I need help with something,” Mark said to the circus leader when he saw him by the ticket stand.

“How can I help you?”

“I need to speak with Neder or Kilan regarding asking permission for me and my twins and three of their friends which would include your son Deo to go to the first floor of the Culano dungeon for a sightseeing tour. We will sit atop my floating disc and would summon the plant golems to fight the monster while we watch.”

“That’s interesting. Okay, I’ll go with you.”

The two then went to the village and looked for the village chief. Mark replicated some burgers and put them in a stylish bento box to serve as a gift to the chief or mayor. The village was huge, almost as large as a town, but they kept the name Culano Village instead of using Culano Town and he asked Hamil why.

“The majority of the people in the village are adventurers and most infrastructure was built to cater to them. The total population of the actual villagers is only as big as your typical village and the others were just temporary residents who wanted to dive the dungeon.”

The two arrived at the village hall, which was surprisingly large for a village, and then they were led by a secretary-looking lady to Kilan’s office who opened the door after knocking twice. They saw Kilan behind a table perusing some papers. When Kilan looked up to check who interrupted him, the village chief saw Mark and Hamil.

“Hamil! Mark! How can I help you?” Kilan said while standing up to invite the two to sit on the couch located on the side of the chief’s office.

Mark gave the bento box of hamburgers first to the village chief and explained what the food was.

“I like your food Mark their different and interesting,” Kilan said then he put the box on the small table.

“I’m here to ask permission for me and my twins and three of their friends to enter the first floor of the dungeon. We will be on top of my floating disc while my summons battle with the monsters. It’s basically a sightseeing tour. Is that possible?” Mark asked the village chief.

“As you know we don’t allow children to enter the dungeon for their safety but since you’re a powerful wizard capable of summoning a dragon, of course, we will not deny you and your family to enjoy the sights of Culano Village,” Kilan said.

“Great! Hamil here will handle the rest. I will need to go now so we can start our adventure. Thanks again,” Mark then stood up, shook Kilan’s hands, and left Hamil with Kilan. Both men were astonished at how fast Mark left.
