Eliza found herself in a familiar place devoid of light but cold and the familiar scent of death .
The stairs were still intact , without any thorns or chains lying around ready to grab her .
The demon kid, as anticipated, was still alive and well, lounging on his throne as if he were the king of the world. He gave Eliza his obnoxious smile before he rose to his throne.
Welcome back, Miss. I have been missing you.
Eliza was extremely nauseous. Why was she returning to this awful location when she had been back at home just two days before to her journey to Japan?
"I understand that you have a lot of questions," he said, tinkering with his finger as though painting something in midair."Well, you are aware that I am not a god of answers."
Eliza's hands tightened, her knuckles getting tighter.
"Then why open you damn mouth .",Eliza spat .
He barked a laugh that lacked humor .
Hehehehehe! Ouch! Little Miss lacks respect for gods . I am surprised,why ?of all people especially a woman dare to stand face to face with me clearly not afraid ."
However, he went on, "you passed the exam I gave you, so go ahead and get the daggar; there are no more challenges."
Then he leaped back into his throne and sat cross-legged, staring down at Eliza's confused expression.
Do I look like a fool to you , if you want me to get the daggar then bring it to me . I am not your servant who will obey every stupid command of yours .
The devil child ran both his hands down his face in sheer exasperation .
you are a smart one indeed . Well ....
He paused, contemplating what to say .
This girl obviously anticipated my fictitious trial of the holy route. If I let her go, I would be trapped in this system for another thousand years.
Leaving his seat, he approached the floating daggar.
At last, he responded, "Huh, well, just have it."
He swung his palm, causing the daggar that was hovering in front of him to fly all the way up to Eliza's feet.
Eliza was puzzled at first ,she actually challenged the devil once more and actually gave up .looks like her acting brave actually paid off,she couldn't help but feel proud of herself.
The suffering she endured during the heavenly path challenge was a hoax; she had previously known that it was, but they were all delusions this brat conjured up.Even though she was aware that the trial was a hoax, she chose to proceed. When the devil confronts you, prove to him that you can remain still despite the agony.
Eliza approached and took up the daggar; upon feeling it, she saw that it was more complicated than a diamond in terms of molecular structure and hardness. Evidently, its hardness was superior to that of even a grade A supra tool.
You remarked, "Once I acquire the daggar, I will know something about my mother, but this bit of scrap does not seem like much." Eliza went on.
"That is an A class daggar made from my own bones, and it can even hurt a S rank warrior if it comes into touch with his flesh," the demon kid yelled."And as for your mother, I only know that she visited the Tower of Doomsday and Sacrifice once. Other than that, perhaps those large men on the upper levels are aware of her."
Tower of eternal doomsday and sacrifice,what is that? Some stupid art show.
The devil child clenched her fists, heat rising to his face .
Oh my goodness, I have gone from the god of illusions to a history teacher. Now, I must tell you what this location is where you are standing.Simply amazing, truly amazing.
"If you are useless then you are no more than worthless just like your illusions ."
"You knew the trial was a hoax," the demon kid said, staring at Eliza with wide eyes.
Do you genuinely believe that I would worship the devil? Well, I am not as foolish as you believe, and even though you killed me, I would never slit my flawless skin to find out the truth. I do want to know about my mother, but I am sure she would not want to witness her daughter suffering.
The devil child began clapping mockingly but impressed .
Well,I have to say ,you have outsmarted me just like your mother . I am just guardian knight, tyrant devil mind .I am a peak B rank knight, but my strength is linked to the Tower of Eternal Doomsday and Sacrifice, therefore it is enhanced to a 3-domain S rank.
Three domain S level, therefore it makes sense that her allies' combined strength would not be enough to overcome him. However, he was actually at peak B rank, and even Ivana was far more powerful than him.
Eliza's trance was broken by the demon child's loud voice, "What are you thinking?"
"Just wondering,such a weak person actually occupied ruin 07 -Z . Even I could easily defeat if I went all out ",Eliza rolled her eyes inwardly,mocking the existence Infront of her .
The devil child blinked .
Ruin 07 -Z,huh ,this is the tower of eternal doomsday and sacrifice,a living supra divine artifact created by the God of death. He raised his hands in the air as though he were admiring his master's magnificent creation, saying, "It is more of a trial dungeon made by the master to test his successor who would own the will of the world and dominate both the living and the dead."
So ,how does that concern me . I only came to the ruins to find information about my mother not be part of some circus clown god who disappeared from the world millions of years ago .
The devil child took one step and instantly appeared Infront of Eliza like a ghost , towering just above her .
Clown god ,there are pairs of power in the divine realm that rule over earth,the Holy spirit of creation, supreme god ,the tyrant angel of destruction,all these powers work hand in hand .With a finger pointing skyward like a scientific teacher describing a fact, the devil kid continued, "The holy spirit of creation is split into many gods; god of light, god of nature, god of the sea, beast god, divine angel spirit, god of death who purifies souls and judges sinners, and so many more."
Eliza interrupted him to ask, "So what about the tyrannical angel of destruction?"
The devil child smirked ,Eliza seemed intrigued by the topic,maybe somehow he could convince her to do what he wants .
Although those are malevolent deities, we are discussing the Tower of Eternal Doomsday and Sacrifice. It is a straightforward dungeon that aids in the ascension to ....
You mean your pointless trials, and I am too busy.""Now take me back where I was, I already am exhausted and a lot is going on in my thoughts," Eliza said, turning on her heel as though she had come here on foot.
"Oh, you mean, the way your power suddenly got greater and why you found yourself in bed two days before you flew to Japan to penetrate the ruins," the demon kid said, almost stumbling during his statement.
It caught Eliza's attention. She had so much going on in her head that she nearly forgot that everything was occurring due of this knight.
Well .
The devil kid snapped his fingers, and the whole area was illuminated by a dazzling burst of light.
The moment the light dissipated ,Eliza found herself back in her house but she wasn't truly herself .She noticed that she was resting on the couch with a girl wearing goggles next to her. Other maids had gathered around her, their faces displaying concern.
Bewildered, she glanced down at her hands and saw that she was translucent.
"Don't worry ",a reassuring voice boomed from behind,"when I summoned you to come to me ,I actually pulled her soul form from your physical body ,I can return it afterwards ."
With one leg crossed over the other, the wicked youngster sat on her couch as if he owned the place.
Accept my master's legacy, and you will be amazed at how many miracles you get. You see, your strength increased dramatically after you completed my test. I wonder what level you will reach after finishing all 32 wonders.
Her power suddenly rose to the highest level of A rank, which would take her two to four years to attain. It was a miracle that anyone with common sense would accept, but was it worth it? The animosity of the first trial, despite the fact that it was a hoax, made her despise the devil child. What about the other thirty-two trials?
Hmm ,go tell your master I am not interested.
Remember when I told you ,your mother once visited the tower of eternal doomsday and sacrifice .
This made Eliza flinch .
Before you begin yelling at me ,I don't know much about her but clearly those powerful guardians on the upper floors do,accept my master's inheritance then become a great woman who can shake even mountain Everest with a single blow .
