When Cade was watching and reading the news all over the internet, a few hours had passed since the black-gold-mist covered Planet Snowball.
At that time, all the media was reporting was about the black-gold mist. Explorers from other planets tried to pass through the mist and they were all suddenly lost contact with that explorers and they never came out.
That was also another news that they were reporting. Other than the footage of the planet covered with the mist, there was no other footage shown on the news.
However, when Cade was watching the news, they had moved on from that part to a piece of more shocking news. Even Cade was watching with his eyes and mouth fully opened.
A video recording from 30 minutes ago was playing over and over on all news websites. It was the video recording of the mist dissipated and disappeared while it left nothing on the area.
Yes, Planet Snowball and everyone on it had disappeared completely from Ice Star Sector. There was no more Planet Snowball in the universe.
Planet Snowball had become a history of the universe. Everyone in the universe including all the explorers gasped at what had happened.
The huge planet was gone without a trace. The previous location of that planet was empty of anything. Nothing can be found there.
The citizens of Planet Snowball that managed to escape from the planet were crying as their birth planet was gone from existence. They had no home they could go back to.
On the other hand, everyone in the universe was on high alert following the disappearance of Planet Snowball. Upon the disappearance of Planet Snowball, Ice Star Sector Alliance immediately sent people there to investigate what had happened.
They lost one of their planets without a trace and that planet was the fifth biggest planet in their star sector and it was a huge loss.
They regretted not listening to the system warning and did not hear the plea of Snowball’s citizens. Now, they lost their planet.
Due to their greed, they lost more than they gained… No! they lost more without gaining anything. They not only lost the planet but also explorers on Planet Snowball.
There were three S grade explorers on that planet and none of them came back. All of them vanished. S grade explorers were deemed national treasure and they lost three of them in a few hours.
Other than learning their lesson of listening to the system warning, they gained nothing. Other than the black-gold mist, the planet disappearance and the loss of communication with the planet, there was no more information they had of what had happened on the planet.
Everyone was talking about what had happened. It was the biggest news ever in the history of mankind. Bigger than the dungeon first-time appearance. Bigger than the lucky girl. Bigger than the war for the puzzle pieces. Bigger than everything.
There were no explosions, black holes or anything else. It was only the mist and the planet silently disappeared.
Cade was on the bus at the moment and he was still browsing through the internet reading the news about Planet Snowball. Not only him, everyone on the bus was the same.
Some of them looked worried and concerned. Some were discussing among themselves about what had happened. Some were angry with Snowball’s government and said they deserved it and some were quietly listening and viewing the discussion of others.
Cade sighed while he overheard an angry woman blaming everything to the planet’s government. Cade agreed with her.
If they had taken action when the dungeon appeared, everything might be fine but instead, they waited to see what would happen.
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
They did not listen to the warning the system gave and they paid the consequences by losing their planet. They reap what they sow.
Every government in the universe had started releasing an announcement asking the citizen to report if they found any time limit dungeon. That dungeon had just become the biggest threat to humanity and they needed to give more attention to it.
Thanks to the stupidity of snowball, they had zero information about the dungeon. They did not even know how the dungeon looked inside.
They did not know what to expect with the dungeon other than if the time limit ended.
Cade arrived at his college and went to his class as usual. For the past few days, he had been visiting the government website for a limited entry dungeon license but it was to no avail.
There were none available. The big guild swept every new dungeon immediately after their appearance. There was nothing Cade could do.
“How is it working with that guild?” Suddenly Cade heard a girl talking nearby. She was in his class. Cade looked at the direction of the voice and a group of girls were talking with each other.
Cade recognized one of the girls because that girl had just awakened a few days ago during class and everyone knew her since that day.
Her name was Sera. She had beautiful red hair and her face was beautiful too. However, she was a bit wild and acted like a boy. No boy dared to get near her because she usually beat them.
When she awakened, she got a special skill called fire manipulation. The name of the skill said it all about what the skill was capable of. With that skill, she can easily control any fire she can find without much effort.
Her potential growth was A grade and with the special skill, she already had the potential to stay at the top of A-grade explorers.
When the big guilds caught wind of the news about Sera, they went full force to recruit her. However, most of them went home disappointed when Sera decided to join the Aqua Crane Guild.
Aqua Crane Guild was the number one guild in Dineon. They had a lot of achievement in Dineon for completing a lot of high levels and high-grade dungeons that appeared on the planet.
They rarely went to recruit anyone but they made an exception to Sera due to her special skill. Sera did not want to waste the opportunity and decided to join them.
She went exploring a dungeon with her guidemate a few days ago and just came back. Her friends were curious about her adventure and asked her.
“Hmm~ how to say this… It was too easy,” said Sera while looking up. She was bragging that the dungeon she went to was not a challenge to her.
Her friends were in awe with what Sera had said and they continued their questions and Sera kept bragging about herself.
Cade frowned when he was looking at Sera bragging. He knew that she might act like that because she was with her friends and hoped that she did not mean that.
Many explorers lost their lives while exploring the dungeon because they were careless and think too highly of themselves.
Cade went through that moment a bit in the slime dungeon and learned his lesson went he was ambushed by the slime. Luckily, he did not lose his life.
Cade decided to move to another seat as the girls had gotten too excited and it became too noisy. Sera saw Cade was moving and she recognized him as fellow explorers.
News of Cade becoming an explorer was known to everyone in his class but they did not hear any story from Cade because Cade likes to keep it to himself.
They knew Cade was the type of person that did not talk much and they never tried to ask him anything. They also knew that Cade’s potential was E grade and there was nothing special about him.
Since Cade awakened at his home, no one knew his link growth skill and thus no one even bothered to ask him because of his grade.
However, they did not know that Cade was not an E grade anymore. He had already advanced to D grade and possibly higher in the future and it was all thanks to his link growth skill.
Sera was staring at Cade and she suddenly felt annoyed at Cade. She took out a lighter from her storage and lit it up.
Her friends looked at her with a questioning face. With the fire from the lighter, Sera manipulated the fire and moved it to form a fireball on her palm.
“Is she showing off her skill?” her friends and everyone in the class thought. Suddenly, they were all shocked when Sera shot the fireball towards Cade.
Cade did not see the fireball coming at him and suddenly he heard voices from his classmates, “Cade! Behind you!” screamed his classmates.
Cade looked behind him and a fireball was on his face. The fireball blew on his face and Cade was sent flying backward. He broke some tables and chairs around and fell on the floor.
“Sera!! What are you doing?! Why are you attacking Cade?” asked one of her friends. However, before Sera can answer her friends, an arrow flew straight towards Sera.
