After rewarding Michelle for a while, Rudy waved his hand, and the lights automatically turned off.

...

for a long time.

It's late at night.

The two bright moons in the sky outside the window were suddenly stained blood red, exuding an eerie atmosphere.

Rudy sensed something was amiss and instinctively opened his eyes.

He drew back the curtains and took a closer look.

"This is... a blood moon?!"

According to records, when the moon turns red, it signifies the resurgence of a demon king, and the world will face a new crisis.

There are two moons in the sky.

In the past, only one of them would turn blood red, while the other would remain as pure and white as jade.

It's as if the hero and the demon king are natural enemies.

But now, both moons have turned blood red. What does that mean?

Two demon kings were resurrected at the same time?

Even more demon lords have been resurrected?

...

Below the Hanging Gardens, the Palace of Azorent.

A girl with long blue hair is staring intently at the moon in the sky.

She instinctively covered her mouth and murmured softly.

"It has happened, the foreseen scenario. It seems it's time to assemble the paladins."

Raising her clear purple eyes, the girl's gaze fell towards the direction of the Sky Garden.

“I’m really looking forward to it, Mr. Rudy. We’ll meet soon.”

"Before that, we need to settle my brother in, since he is a tangible source of help."

...

"A blood moon has descended!"

"And it's a double blood moon!"

In the Dean's office at the Academy of Heroes.

The silver-haired, twin-tailed loli stood up, a solemn expression on her delicate face.

"This is a bad omen."

"No, we have to find an opportunity to test that kid with the light attribute."

"If he turns to the dark side, there will be no hope for the world."

...

at the same time.

Prince Kane of Asorent is cultivating his divine seal.

He sat cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed.

The divine seal on his hand emitted a special light.

Sometimes it's purple, and sometimes it's a sacred gold.

In the end, all other colors disappeared.

All that remained was a blood-red color, almost identical to the moon outside...

At that moment, Kane suddenly opened his eyes.

At this moment, his eyes turned blood red.

"It's done!"

Kane's face lit up with surprise.

Just now, he fused the light attribute he obtained from Rudy.

Only in this way can he retain this light attribute when he breaks the contract with Rudy in the future.

Just as he was feeling pleased, Kane suddenly frowned.

A peculiar message suddenly entered his mind.

"If you want to evolve your divine seal, go conquer the dungeon. Reach the 100th floor, and you'll find what you need there..."

"A maze? That's exactly what I was thinking."

Kane smiled.

He did not doubt the origin of this information.

This information had appeared once before, when he underwent the awakening ceremony and received the divine seal.

At the time, he thought he was a good-for-nothing.

But after heeding the message from the divine seal, he saved the Michelle and Mina sisters, signed a contract with them, and only then did he learn of his extraordinary abilities.

Touching his chin, Kane muttered to himself.

"If we're going to the maze, it'd be better to call Rudy along."

After all, although he possesses multiple attributes, his magic power is limited. It would be better to let Rudy, a specialist in light-attribute support magic, handle the casting.

Kane was completely unaware.

An unseen aura was flowing through the moon in the sky and into the divine seal in his hand.

...

"The aura has vanished!"

A silver-haired girl with twin ponytails stood at the entrance of the student dormitory, frowning.

She used a special secret method to track down the Demon King's aura, so she came to investigate where the Demon King might be resurrected.

If necessary, she would eliminate the threat completely, killing the Demon King while he was still weak.

For thousands of years, each resurrection of the Demon King has caused the death of countless lives.

This is necessary for peace!

I looked up at the moon in the sky.

The blood-red color has disappeared.

"This is a big problem. Based on past predictions, the Demon King will most likely be hiding among the students."

"Yet we still can't find his existence."

"Young man from the Mers family, will you be the vessel for the Demon King?"

She muttered something while stroking her chin, and the mysterious silver-haired loli vanished instantly.

...

The moon in the sky returned to normal, and Rudy stopped thinking about it. He put his arm around Michelle's waist and closed his eyes.

He didn't care about the Demon King's resurrection.

Rudy's own Demon King template cheat is much safer than inheriting the Demon King's power in this world.

Inheriting the Demon King's power means losing oneself, which is equivalent to possession, isn't it?

So even if a demon king offered Rudy his power, Rudy wouldn't accept it.

Moreover, he strongly rejected the blood-red energy emanating from the moon.

It feels toxic...

...

the next day.

Early in the morning, Kane greeted Rudy with a bright smile.

Good morning, Rudy brothers!

"Good morning, Kane."

"Hehe, speaking of which, have you heard? The moon seemed to turn blood red last night."

"I saw it."

Rudy replied nonchalantly.

"A blood moon is said to be a sign of the Demon King's resurgence. What, Kane, are you scared?"

"How could that be?" Kane immediately straightened his back, revealing a confident expression.
