A hidden ruin in the northern part of Leermont Province.

With the death of the last shadow guard, the shadow energy dissipated, and Lucifer finally killed all the guards blocking his way.

He exhaled and relaxed slightly.

Thinking about the treasures he had obtained from this ruins in the past month, he became more serious about this ruins.

As a demon in charge of darkness and shadows in the dark world, he should have a certain restraint relationship with such a unique shadow guard.

But to his surprise...it wasn't him who was restrained.

This means... the master of this relic must have a higher status than him, higher than his original body at the peak of the seventh level of the Dark Realm...

In addition, there are endless shadow traps and shadow guards in this relic.

Lucifer had some guesses about the owner of the ruins.

He took a deep breath, picked up the shadow cores dropped by the dead shadow guards, and placed them in the magic box.

After searching the room for a while and finding no missing treasures, he headed towards the deepest part of the ruins.

Walking into the long bronze passage, Lucifer was very alert this time. He used shadow magic to condense a shadow creature to explore the way ahead.

But to his surprise, this last section of the journey did not seem to be as dangerous as the previous ones.

Lucifer narrowed his eyes and followed the dog-shaped shadow creature in front.

It was very narrow at first, just enough for a person to pass through. Not long after, a demon and a shadow dog passed through the long passage and arrived at the end.

At the end, there was only a bronze door that was about the same size as him.

The bronze door was open, and it was dark inside. The light coming in seemed to be swallowed up by something, and there was no light at all.

It is very similar to Lucifer's [Night].

No matter what, Lucifer's true form is a seventh-level peak demon. He concentrates the demonic energy in his eyes, so that he can see clearly within a range of ten meters.

Still suppressed...

After dispersing the shadow dogs, Lucifer walked in. Lucifer, who had a contract with Ryan, was not afraid at all and walked straight into the bronze door.

As soon as he walked in, Lucifer noticed something and his body paused, as if something was attracting him. Lucifer followed the guidance in his heart and moved forward step by step.

After walking for a long time, he finally...saw a small platform about the same size as him.

A pitch-black dagger was floating on the platform, floating quietly on the platform.

Lucifer looked at the dagger in front of him and took a deep breath...it was not this thing!

Lucifer even had the idea of ​​taking it for himself for a moment.

The contract in his mind shone, causing Lucifer to give up the idea.

Lucifer then used the power of shadow to pull the dagger on the table down, fused the dagger into his body, and hurried out of the ruins.

This thing is too precious and of too high a status, he must bring it to his master immediately.

…

The Knights' headquarters.

After Ryan and Adrian told their Crown Guard Knights to come back and collect their rewards after training, they left the Knights' Residence.

It was already noon when the family arrived.

Ryan did not enter the manor villa, but walked towards the pond in the manor. On the way, he stopped a maid and asked her to call Andre, saying that he had something to tell Andre.

Soon, Ryan, who was feeding fish by the pond, saw Andre.

"Young Master, you are looking for me." Andre came to Ryan and bowed slightly.

"Yes." Ryan agreed, and a stack of information he had just prepared flew out of the magic ring and handed it to Andre.

Ryan spilled all the fish food in his hand, turned to look at Andre and said.

"I have something I need you to do. I need you to go to Wordsworth..."

At this moment, Ryan stopped talking and looked into the distance with a sense of perception.

Seeing this, Andre followed Ryan's gaze...it was a pitch-black crow.

A crow? ...Lucifer! Andre understood.

The crows controlled by Lucifer were very fast. Lucifer, who was just at the edge of the sky, arrived beside Ryan in just a few breaths.

The crow formed a shadow, and then Lucifer fell from the sky and landed steadily next to Ryan.

Lucifer half-knelt and saluted Ryan, "Master, I'm here. I'm very sorry to have wasted so much of your magic power."

Ryan shook his head, "It's okay." Ryan waved his hand and pulled Lucifer up.

"I can sense the danger of that ruin. It's just some magic."

"Have you finished exploring? Have you gotten everything inside?"

Lucifer's expression froze slightly, and he nodded, "I have fulfilled my master's trust and have completed my exploration of the ruins."

"The treasures were also collected."

Listening to Lucifer's words, Ryan said with some anticipation in his heart.

"Take it out and let me see it. Such a dangerous relic must contain something quite good."

Lucifer did not move. It asked with a serious expression, "Master, can we enter the secret realm?"

Hearing this, the smile on Ryan's face disappeared, and he showed a serious expression.

It seems that Lucifer's harvest this time... is even greater than he expected.

Then Ryan waved his hand, and a familiar suction force came. The two did not resist and disappeared on the spot.

The next moment, the three of them appeared in the center of the inheritance square in the trial secret realm.

Then Ryan and Andre looked at Lucifer and nodded.

Lucifer forced out the dagger that had been fused into his body in the ruins.

It was as if without the cover of the unique shadow energy in the ruins space, at this moment, the black dagger caused a strange sensation in the secret realm.

It directly transformed the secret realm's day into night, and the pitch-black dagger emitted bursts of terrifying pressure from time to time.

Looking at the dagger, the book spirit in Ryan's mind and the god of magic in his body widened their eyes.

Shattered Godhead!?

It's not the broken godhead!

For a moment, the God of Magic wanted to get out of Ryan's body and swallow the dagger.

Ryan's head was buzzing as he listened to the book spirit's exclamation in his mind.

Is this Godhead!?

Ryan took a deep breath, looked at Lucifer, and said, "Is this the treasure in the deepest part of the ruins?"

Lucifer nodded.

"Yes, from what I understand... this is a broken godhead."

Listening to Lucifer's words, Andre on the side was stunned. He wondered what he had just heard.

Godhead? ...Is this something a mid-level warrior like him can listen to?
