From MC''s perspective:
I left the dorm building a few minutester. But my mind was still revolving around yesterday''s meeting. Before leaving I thought about contacting Senior Gilbert.
Don''t know whether he had received the meeting results. After pushing down my thoughts, I started walking toward the academy building.
On the way, I came across other wizard students. They are standing in groups along the corridor. From their looks, I can tell that they are deliberately waiting for me.
But I ignored them as usual and started to head towards the phone booth. Soon, I reached the phone booth. After entering inside, I selected the location.
Shake~
The phone booth starts to shake. Right after, the phone booth starts descending intoplete dark space.
After a few minutes the phone booth came to a halt. Then I walked out of the booth. But then I saw arge number of wizard students standing in front of the Battle Tower.
The crowd was bitrger than usual. But I''m sure they are not supporters but hostile groups. I furrowed my eyebrows before starting walking toward the Battle Tower.
As I got closer, the wizard students started to recognise me.
"Hey, he is here!"
"Don''t know how many floors he is going to clear this time?"
People started to murmur. Many of their gazes filled with hatred and envy. Undoubtedly the gazes are from the Bloodline Wizards.
Vincent Carey was one person that they weren''t able to cure. So their gazes naturally filled with deep enmity.
Surprisingly, the weapon wizards are gathered inrge numbers second to the bloodline wizards. It happened because of their Senior Student Henry Barlow''s duel request.
They wonder whether their Senior is going to appear or not. If it happens, then he would request for the duel again. So they are waiting for him.
The crowd gave the way. Seeing that I continued to walk forward. But when I reached the Battle Tower Entrance. I stopped my movements.
I didn''t find Senior Sister Carolina at front. I thought she was here. Then I turned around and stepped inside.
Swish~
I disappeared from the spot and appeared in the middle of the dark space.
[Floor: 21]
[The Challenge starts in 5 minutes]
The announcement sounded. Hearing that, I removed the misceneous thoughts from the mind.
5 minutester,
The environment changed and I found myself in the middle of the forest. Seeing that my mouth twitched, I already guessed what kind of monster that I''m going to face.
Hiss~
Hissing Sound of the snake monster reached my ears. Hearing that my face couldn''t help but be dignified.
Then I saw a huge snake head looking down at me from the tree branches.
[Green Dotted Snake - 5th order peak]
After recognising the snake, I stood in the same spot. The monster was observing me. If I made a sudden move now, It would attack me.
After learning from the previous mistake, I decided to save as much recovery potion as possible.
Hiss~
The snake monster hissed again. I can see its tilted pupils.
Slowly, calming down my heart. I decided to probe the monster. I hope it''s an ordinary predator. If it''s a weird one, then I have to be cautious.
"System, probe the monster in front of me," I said to the system.

[Speed: 495]
[Stamina: 499]
[Skill: Death Bite, Death Gaze, Death Strangle, Fast Speed and Regeneration.]
Looking at the status panel, I couldn''t help but curse at my bad luck. This monster has so many skills. It''s definitely weird. And what''s with the regeneration.
The more I observe the skill the more my face grows dark.
[Ding! Warning]
All of sudden, the system warned me. Right after, I disappeared from the spot and flew backwards.
Boom~
A dark light released from the monster''s eyes and hits at the empty spot.
Seeing that my expression changes drastically. It''s definitely not an ordinary monster. I never saw a snake monster with this ability before.
"How to tackle?" My brain sprung up in action.
Then I saw the snake monster wanting to dash toward me. It was just an instinct. The snake monster then rushes forward by using its speed skill.
"Repulsive Force," I cast the instant spell.
A powerful repelling force released from the body. The repulsive force then collides with the snake monster which was rushing forward.
Boom~
The collision caused a terrible noise which reverberated throughout the area.
I took a few steps backward from the impact. The snake monster also crashed to the ground. But I know the spell didn''t cause that much damage.
A bright light appeared on the snake monster. The next moment, the monster recovered from its superficial injury.
"F@ck," I cursed out loud. The regenerative ability blew my mind.
The snake monster then made a sudden turn and started rushing toward me again.
Seeing that I pointed my fingers at the monster and cast the next magic spell.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>
"Gravity st," I uttered.
A wisp of gravity magic released from my tip of the finger and shot at the snake monster''s head at breakneck speed.
The snake monster is dashing toward the prey. But all of a sudden it senses the danger. The speed was so fast that it wasn''t able to move its giant body away.
When the snake monster manages to slightly tilt its body. The gravity magic hits the monster''s body.
Boom~
The gravity magic tore through the skin and managed to inflict severe injury. But right after the regenerative ability recovered the skin like nothing had happened.
But the attack had enraged the monster more. It started dashing toward the prey again.
Seeing the recovery, I feel a headache. I understand that without taking risks, it''s difficult to kill the monster.
Then I saw a monstering at me again. But I controlled my impulse to attack. And waited for the monster to enter my range.
When the monster got closer. The giant body eventually entered the field range. Seeing that I instantly cast the gravity field spell.
A powerful gravitational force appeared. It suddenly acted on the huge snake monster. Seeing that monster paused its movements, I continued to pour the gravity essence.
But the snake monster was struggling hard. It''s taking advantage of its huge body. Though it was pressing down to the ground because of the gravitational force.
The snake monster''s eyes never left the prey. It suddenly swung its tail with huge force. The force was enough to take down the prey.
At the same time, I''m concentrating on pouring the essence. As long as the field is active, the gravity force will increase with passing of time.
But all of a sudden, a huge tail appeared before my eyes. It was so close to my body. The monster was able to swing its tail under this field.
A hint of surprise shes in my eyes. But before it attacked me. I decisively canceled the spell and appeared in the Gegor Mansion.
Right after, the monster was dumbfounded by the sudden disappearance of the prey. It also felt the pressure on its body was gone. Now it can freely move its body.
Hiss~
After letting out a hiss, the monster started to move in the opposite direction in search of prey.
In the Gregor Mansion, I took a moment to calm down my heart.I remember the monsters in this Core House Trial are differentpared to the Inner House Trial.
The snake monster has such a regenerative ability. I started to massage my temple while pondering.
Next, I decided to look at my mana consumption. "Show my status panel," I said to the system.

The status panel appeared. Looking at slight consumption in mana, I knitted my eyebrows. The monster was fine after the regeneration.
But my mana reserve is getting depleted. I have to be careful of not wasting the mana anymore.
Then I started to ponder. Apart from the head region, I believe the snake monster can regenerate its broken parts. So I should focus on targeting the monster''s head.
