Synopsis

The main characters learn the Tower of Trials is not human-made, but constructed by dragons with distinct rules for rewards. They realize they won't receive rewards due to a character's prior completion. Meanwhile, a separate group, having fled to the tower for refuge, discovers they're trapped and are being hunted by powerful mages. They hope for a single, exceptional individual, Joshua, to provide aid. The pursuers are then confronted by a formidable spear knight who swiftly dispatches their magic, creating a tense cliffhanger.
