The final stretch

Rocky read Karna's letter and let out a deep sigh. Ever since Liam's death, his emotions had been in turmoil, but the letter gave him a moment of clarity.

"The finals start in 14 days and will last for 7 days. To join the floor 21 attack alongside the Elites, I need to clear floors 18, 19, and the ascension test on floor 20 alongside Erin and Buhara—all within the next fourteen days.

Plus, I need to prepare as best I can for the finals and receive the highest evaluation in it to complete the system quest I recieved at the start of the semester.

Finally, my work with Sophia also needs to reach its conclusion. I have to use all the faith she's built in me to my advantage," Rocky thought, as his mind cleared of useless emotions, focused on the tasks ahead within a tight timeframe.
