Tokyo, Japan inside of the Tower of End and Beginning, Floor 99.
Five people walk up the stairs to floor 100. They don't know what to expect, but their faces show determination and nothing else. They reached the final door to enter Floor 100. They took a deep breath, and before they opened the door, their leader, Michael, spoke.
"My dear friends, maybe this will be our last meeting if we don't succeed, I will never forget you all hahaha."
Their vice leader, Austine, spoke and said, "You really feel like laughing at this time, Michael. Maybe you're right that this is the last battle, but I won't be defeated by these monsters."
Michael spoke again and said, "Why don't we get to know ourselves better before we enter Floor 100?"
Austine replied, "I don't know if that's a good idea, but I'm not against it."
The five of them looked at each other, and based on their reaction, it looks like they won't mind this either. They sat on the ground at the entrance of floor 100 and seemed uncomfortable.
Michael spoke first and said, "I'm Michael Williams and I'm from the United States of America. I was an orphan when I was young. I don't know why they abandoned me, but I can only tell them one thing. They made a mistake in rejecting me and abandoning me because today we will be heroes of this world. HAHAHA. "
Austine spoke second and said, "I'm Austine Taylor, and I'm from England." When I was young, I dreamed of becoming a chef, but that all changed and this is where I ended up HAHAHA. Like Michael, I also became an orphan due to a car accident, but someone also sheltered me and took care of me like their real child, and that's all. "
The woman spoke third and said, "My name is Sato Mitsuki and I live here in Japan." My dream is to become an engineer, but just like Austine said, I am here today in this tower with you.
I have a family to protect, so it's okay for me to die here rather than them. "
The muscular man was the fourth to speak and said, "My name is Ekon Abimbola and I am from Africa." I used to be a pirate to make money and to support my parents, but I was caught by the authorities and imprisoned. It's good that someone helped me and he helped me finish my studies, but because of what is happening in the world, I am here now and with you here in the Tower. "
The man wearing the pea coat was the last to speak and said, "I am Ram Montefalco and I am from the Philippines." I was born into a complete family, but our life was difficult, and sometimes I only had one meal a day. I dreamed of becoming a famous actor, but I was not accepted because of my scar on my face.
Michael asked, "Where did you get that scar of yours?"
Ram replied, "I got it fighting there in our place."
Michael stood up and spoke again, but now his face was serious and he said, "Since our introduction is over, it's time to face the truth and fight the enemies." Take a deep breath because there is no turning back and the only thing this world expects is us. "
They stood up and took a deep breath because they were about to face the final floor of the tower and they didn't know what to expect.
The Vice leader spoke and said, "Ready your weapons and be alert and vigilant when we enter Floor 100."
While Mitsuki prepared his katana, Ekon prepared his shield in case of immediate battle.
They opened the door to Floor 100 and were surprised by what they saw. They saw the inside of a castle and it was full of statues in every corner. He entered only five, and suddenly the statues moved towards their direction.
Michael shouted, "Get ready!"
They formed a circle so they could protect each other's backs from the enemy.Mistuki pulled out his katana blade and Ekon prepared his shield so he could protect them if the statues attacked.

Meanwhile, outside the Tower,
Chatter! Chatter!
People outside the tower were talking about whether the five [SSS Rank Hunters] could conquer the last floor of the tower.
WOAHH! Look at it! The famous S Rank Hunters are here! which is the Guild Leader of the Scavenger Guild, Hunter Russell Brook, and the Guild Leader of the Monster, Hunter Warren Jones.
The media approached the two of them and started asking, "Why are you here? What are you doing here?
The Scavenger's Guild leader replied with a serious expression on his face, "I came here because I want to find out if those five can make history. That will change the way the world looks."
The Monster's Guild leader didn't answer.
DRIP! DRIP!
It suddenly rained during those times, but people didn't mind it and just continued with what they were doing. All the people there were soaking wet, and they just stared at the tower as if there was no tomorrow.
The people who come have different expressions on their faces; some are nervous, some are afraid, and some are confident that the [SSS Rank hunters] will conquer the tower.
Everyone in the world is focused on what will happen, whether the world will experience tribulation and destruction or whether it will experience a good ending.
People prayed and prayed that all this suffering would be over and everyone would have a good tomorrow.
BOOM!
Everyone was shocked and did not know what happened or why there was an explosion. Suddenly, it was announced that the explosion happened inside the Tower of Doom.
The two hunters, Russel and Warren, looked at each other. Warren walked up to Russel and said, "Can they really handle it?"
Russel replied and said, "Right now I can't tell, but I know for myself that if they fail, it will be the end of this world."
Warren didn't speak anymore and just stood up and looked at the tower again.
____________________________________________
Back to the Tower of End and Beginning.
Are you okay, Austin? Michael said this while worried. Austine replied, "I'm fine. My wound is not that big and I can handle it."
Ekon spoke and said, "I'm really sorry. I didn't protect you right away when the statues attacked."
Austine answered again, "It's okay. The important thing is that you protected Miss Mitsuki from harm, and that's what brought us the win."
So Mitsuki spoke up and said, "Now that we've defeated them, what's next?"
Ram answered and said, "Do you see that door? If I suspected correctly, that is the Boss Room. "
Michael spoke up and said, "That's what I was thinking earlier."
Mitsuki asked and said, "How are we going to attack that?"
Michael replied, "You should know that, right?" But before we do that, let's rest, at least for a little while.
They all agreed, and they rested for a while, talking about the statues they fought earlier. They sat on the floor and got something to drink first.
"Did you notice earlier that those statues were very slow?" Ekon asked, "but when the attacks hit me, my shield almost broke despite being a Legend Rank Shield."
Austine spoke and said, "Yes, you're right. I didn't expect their attack to be that strong. It's a good thing that that attack didn't completely hit me."
Michael said, "Just be thankful that Ram is here because if he wasn't, your head would still be bleeding HAHAHA."
Austine was annoyed by Michael's words and said, "HAHA laugh as much as you want, but remember this: don't pee in fear when we enter the boss room."
The four of them laughed, except Ram. He stood up and went to the door of the Boss Room and stared at it. The four wondered what he was doing, so they also stood up and approached him, and Mitsuki asked, "Is something bothering you, Ram?"
He answered, "Yes there is. I would hate to say it, but if this is the last time, I feel I have to say it." I am asking you for a favor. If I die and you four live, can you take care of and protect my family for me? "
Michael spoke up and said, "What are you talking about? we can survive here as long as we trust each other."
Austine also spoke and said, "Michael is right that we can survive here and we won't die, just strengthen your hearts and always remember that we can survive.
They took a deep breath and cleared their minds of negative things, they strengthened their hearts and minds and stamped only one thing on it, 'Survive to the End'.

Check it out! Another S-Rank Hunter is here! Isn't he the so-called Flame King?The guild leader of the Iron Guild, Hunter Mori Kang.
WOAH! WOAH!
Chatter! Chatter!
The Flame King's arrival on the scene has been talked about by people on social media platforms.
Anon: It's a miracle he's here.
Yes, since the day he was defeated by the Sword of Saint Michael, he has mysteriously disappeared.
Anon: WOAH! The Flame King is so cool.
Anon: I love you, Flame King. Mhaaaawwww.
The Flame King is a figure that symbolizes freedom and peace. Ever since he disappeared, people have lost hope that this world will ever be peaceful.
It wasn't long before the so-called Chosen arrived. They were appointed by the people to be the protectors of the world.
They were given titles such as Sword Saint Michael, Blade Saint Mitsuki, Mage Saint Austine, Defender Saint Ekon, and Heal Saint Ram.Did you hear me, kids?
The children answered, "YES, Sir!"
One of the children asked, "Aren't they in the Tower of End and Beginning now?"
The teacher answered and said, "Yes, right now they are in the Tower and we need to support them through our prayers."
"YES, SIR!"
