A short time earlier, before the SS Rank Adventurer already on the fourth floor of the dungeon chasing after Scaly learnt about the fact that she had ended up ascending back up the dungeon to the third floor of the dungeon, Verdell, who found himself dangling beneath Scaly fearing that she would drop him at any moment, began thinking about ways out of his current precarious situation. Among which, the first solution he thought about was to try and use his nimble and small body to reposition himself enough to get a grip and climb up Scaly and onto her back like he had done back within the dreamscape.
Unfortunately, this idea was dropped almost immediately, as he realized that the claws holding onto him showed no signs of loosening, let alone give him the opportunity to swing around and climb up Scaly.
