The chapter begins with the group entering the second floor of a dungeon, which is notably hotter. Min Jaehyun identifies hidden unregistered swords and obtains a tainted replica of a legendary sword. They discover a quest involving hunting elite monsters and finding a hidden treasure. The group then plans to manipulate the salamander and exploit its tendency to hoard shiny objects, while the main character is thinking of using the salamander's purifying abilities to cleanse his new sword. They ultimately use the treasure hunt as a distraction and plan to prepare for a fight against the salamander.
