I wake up and head down stairs to eat with Lucien, Nilan is not here this week do to a small disease breakout in a town close by that had to be quarantined and doctors sent to try and lower the possible death toll.
I am now on the twentieth floor and Lucien has allowed me to stay on the floor for up to a month at a time and I intend to take on an apprenticeship with as many as possible to widen my knowledge as I am still missing some basics as is proven with the nineteenth floor and the questions I failed to answer.
I also need to practice more of my solo combat ability as I have let it fall behind these past 5 months due to focusing on support for my team, now that it will be random assigned teams it is best to have a self protection ability.
I go to a blacksmith and ask if they are open to take apprenticeships and they do in the morning on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 5 O'clock in the morning to 1 O'clock in the evening with an hour break at 11 to 12 for lunch. The apothecary is doing apprenticeships in the afternoon for restocking, from 3 O'clock to 10 O'clock in the afternoon on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
Hospital is allowing certified aides to help on any time they can be available, although no one can die on a in between section some people volunteer to act as practice for those in the medical field to practice with in exchange for having some of their members trained for free.
The farms have opening in the morning for Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday from 4 O'clock in the morning to 12 O'clock mid day.
With Afternoon of Monday, Wednesday, and Friday set for mental energy forging with a mid rank forger to teach me more, the only day set aside for practice is Sunday that I intend to spend the entire time in the arena practicing and volunteering at the hospital when injured after fights.
I intend to pack my time until my next advancement a year and a half from now doing everything I can to push my mind and body to it's limit so that when I advance I can do what I need to do.
So I begin with every fourth Sunday spent outside the tower practicing with Lucien I slowly advance myself to my limits, Learning all that I can and by the time I turn nineteen I have successfully reached my physical limit.

With my birthday having just past I have spent 8 and a half years in this new world and have achieved D-rank where in my own world achieving the lowest F-rank is considered about as good as I could have done, this has been a complete change in my potential and future and my memories of the time before is getting ever fainter.
I have drawn portraits of all my siblings when I was fifteen but now they would have long become different people the only one I may recognize is Izel and maybe the twins but the rest were to young to be sure of.
I am freer and less stressed despite having more to do here as I am doing it purely for my own want rather then because of expectations.
I have spent the past year building up my knowledge and although I did not make any tower coins due to making the stuff under apprenticeship so the teacher gets the money but I have gained a lot of experience and information that I did not have before.

P.O.V. Izel (Aadi's eldest sister)
It has been 9 and a half years since our eldest's disappearance and I have officially joined the military after going through military school, I am a squad leader due to my excellent leadership abilities and my ability to make accurate calls quickly.
I have been assigned to the front defense force and will be outside the wall during deployment to kill off any potential groups forming to prevent us from being overwhelmed, because of the boost in population caused by people reproducing for government aide we now have a decent sized army and their has been talks of reclaiming more land in the next five to ten years if it continues to climb like this.
I have reached the upper edge of mid F-grade and will advance to high F-grade in the next two months, although I am able to potentially reach A-grade it is more likely to be B-grade due to lack of ability to get vein clearing potions but their is rumor that their is some people that have awakened the ability to remove corruption in the newer generation.
Although I am unsure of how true that rumor is the twins were taken away on their fifteenth birthday due to a state secret that meant the chance of it being true is high, I know that the two younger ones with poor health were also taken away and we are no longer allowed to visit.
It is possible they have this so called cleaning ability which is why they came out so frail despite the twins being high potential.
It is hard to know as no one has been able to get in contact with any of them since they were removed from home, the youngest is doing well as the top of his class with an advanced learning course in both theoretical and physical training. He is doing extremely well and I make sure to stay in contact with those I can to make sure we are all safe.
With the monster population dropping steadily do to soldiers hunting them and actively leaving the city to close wild tunnels, I joined the tower but only got to the tenth floor before I am to join the military and am restricted from entering while on duty.
I know I couldn't have gone further anyway due to the increase in difficulty after the tenth floor and the chance of death after that floor.
It is why the military prevents it's soldiers in training from going further to prevent them from dying due to overconfidence or stupidity, if they die they should do it on the battle field taking out as many monsters as possible so as to make the death worth it.
Of course the tower speeds up cultivation and ones ability to retain knowledge while in there but the risk does not out weigh the cost.
We need as many soldiers as possible to deal with the overwhelming number of monsters because although we have killed many off it will take a while before we can expend, we first need a way to prevent the tunnels from spawning. Supposedly there is a prototype for this but the items to make it are hard to get even for high ranking guilds and it will take a while to amass enough to cover even the main city much less expand into a uncertain territory.
Mom and Dad have had no more children since brother disappeared but that is less due to sadness and more to they don't need to with a high potential child having already been produced.
The world spins round, we advance, and a prosperous future is coming for us it is simply a pity my brother will never see it.

P.O.V Wyatt
It has been a year since Aadi left the team and the healer we were able to find is horrible, she is weak, unable to protect herself, and has no good points other than healing. We have kept our first place till now on the 29th floor but it is because we chose to fail two floors so as to actually get that position while if he was here he could easily deal with it.
I know this is considered normal but after having Aadi here it is hard to not look at her and think of what else she could do to make herself better, she didn't even need to be strong if she had studied like Aadi had and knew stuff she would still have more worth but she chose to do support not creation.
I intend to look for another fighter on the thirtieth floor and pay to have us undergo medical training as well as buy extra potions and medical items so not to drag along a endangerment, we have gotten more injured protecting her then we would without her.
I can only say I look forward to the fiftieth floor where you are expected to begin to perform task solo and separately, as you can do single person test after that.
With the team clearly excluding her due to her incompetency it is clear we will not be able to remain together even if we needed her as they are as likely as to kill her as the other contestants and monsters are if she doesn't stop crying and clinging to others.

P.O.V. Aadi (6 months after)
I am now approaching the end of my solid realm and will soon have to go into isolation so as to advance to the next realm, it will take me 2 years to finish this advancement if things stay the same so I will be gone from the tower until I have turned 22 years old and I will be in the D-rank energy wise by that point.
With 8 years in this world gone I know I got lucky with who found me and how my life has gone since that day 10 and a half years ago. I enter the isolation room just shy of twenty years old and hope all goes well as I hold my plant in my arms.
My 6th advancement is now beginning.
