"That\'s the last one!" Nial announced, his chest heaving up and down heavily. His breath was rough and cold sweat poured down his back.

His clothes were already drenched and clinging to his body, outlining the perfect condition of his body. Nial was ripped, to an extent that made many wonder whether Mana shaped his body or if Nial was secretly performing some sort of sorcery to create such a perfectly shaped and built body.

Of course, Nial couldn\'t care less about that. He had practiced the 10,000 Perfections of Imperfectia to fix his body and provide him with the opportunity to gain more strength, not to look better. Nial was not able to see his appearance, either way, so why would he be bothered to pay too much attention to it?

"Finally…I thought I was gonna die…" Godsly said, resting his huge body against the wall behind the smithy. His hands and arms were burned and the fur covering his body was charred. Never in his life had he worked that hard, not after he had been acknowledged as a renowned Arlian Blacksmith.

Despite the hard work he had been put through in the last two years, Godsly was very satisfied with himself. In fact, he didn\'t recall when he had been as happy and satisfied with himself as today. That was unexpected but certainly something he liked and wanted to imprint into his mind. He smiled in satisfaction, just to see that Nial was getting up from the ground.

"Where are you going, kid? We will have to celebrate our success!" Godsly said, ready to party and get drunk. He rarely felt like that but today he definitely felt the need to go for a drink with his comrades and show off the achievements they attained over the course of time.

However, Nial just waved off his hand in response, "I will come by later, maybe. For now, I will have to take care of my sulking Devils. Shadow was already about to charge through the ceiling when he realized that we finished the last Blazing Ruby Orb!"

Godsly and the other Demihumans flinched when they heard about Shadow. By now, everyone could roughly guess that Shadow was either a descendant of the Origin Leviathan or that it was a creature just as terrifying as the Origin Leviathan.

It was known that the creature was totally loyal to Nial, but that didn\'t change the fact that a ten-kilometer-long armored serpent was \'playing around\' in the sky above the workshop Nial had worked at for the last two years.

More than once, Shadow had shown the intention to charge straight into the workshop just because the Devil was bored and that it desired to be closer to Nial. He was the first person who took care of it, helped it, and didn\'t abandon it. Nial never showed the intention to treat it bad. On the contrary, he even warned Shadow before devilizing him.

​ How could Shadow not look at Nial as a parental figure?

Nial left the workshop and he used Grasp of Eclipse to emerge behind Shadow just a moment later.

The gigantic Devil that had grown by more than two and a half times since Nial saved it roared out in response and it charged around as if it had been stung by a Killer Hornet. Nial just smiled lightly, until the humongous head of Shadow smashed into him, throwing him hundreds of meters through the air.

While he was hurled around, Shadow kept following behind, continuing to throw him around. Nial was not hurt since Shadow was gentle enough, but he felt like using the Grasp of Eclipse once again just to escape. However, upon noticing that Shadow was just happy, he let it be.

Sometimes, it was fine to rest a little and have some fun, and it was not as if he had anything against the pure joy and excitement that reached him through the connection with Shadow.

He was not sure how much time passed before Shadow stopped hurling him around the sky. The Devil Roc had picked up Shadow and thrown him around to make sure that his master wouldn\'t be further bothered.

\'Since when did you grow up so much as well?\' Nial wondered at this moment, realizing that the Devil Roc was also much larger than before.

What Nial missed out on was that the Devil Roc was not only able to deflate his body from its original size to be as large as an ordinary eagle but he was also able to inflate his body to expand in size.

Nial never thought about that but perceiving the Devil Roc grasping the body of Shadow who was simply too huge, Nial couldn\'t help but feel a little bit overwhelmed by his ignorance.

He shook his head and smiled lightly.

"For the next ten years, take care of that little troublemaker. I don\'t want to come back to some destroyed cities or something like that. If you guys are bored, go into the Meteorfield, but not too deep inside, otherwise, you and Shadow will just attract too much attention from stronger beasts. I trust you, Rock. You\'re in charge now!" Nial declared, patting the Devil Roc who chirped out loudly.

Nial nodded his head and he went on his way.

However, his path didn\'t lead him to Godsly or his people. It was about time that he entered the Arcania Realm. The Gates to the Arcania Realm were said to open today or the day after. With that in mind, he had to report to the Grand Elder and get hold of the entrance ticket that must have been summoned by now.

Nial used the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique to appear next to the Grand Elder, who was surrounded by a few dozen of Demihumans.

He stretched out his hand with a shallow smile on his face.

"I\'m dome with my side of the deal," He said, ignoring the other Demihumans altogether.

The Grand Elder stared back at Nial, shaking his head.

However, there was not much he could do against Nial\'s bad attitude. He was already too familiar with it to continue care.

"Whatever…just go!"
