After the feeling of riding in a train for the first time in a bit over two years, Evan threw himself back into dungeon diving, aiming to reach his goal of Level 300 while he was still 13.
However, he failed woefully as ever since he reached Level 290, his levelling speed had slowed greatly, to the point where Eliza whose level was lower than his was actually caught up.
He even made a trip to Kasteblum to take advantage of the city-state's double dungeon experience, ignoring all the documentation required for him, a 'Count' of the Empire, to travel to another country.
Sadly, even this was not enough as by his birthday on the 14th, poor Evan was only level 295.
As such, he failed to set the record of becoming a Grandmaster at 13.
If it was any consolation, the youngest ever Grandmaster in Aidos was 'Strongest Human' Rathal who became a grandmaster level existence at exactly 15 years and 3 days, so Evan still had a shot at breaking that record…probably.
