    It was at the ninth district of the Shadow Empire, above the air of the square of broken stones.


    Grimm looked into the distance, scattered around with eight Voidships, few thousands of Soul ves, and countless of Fallen Amonros moved around with their tasks. It was obvious that the area had fallen under the control of the army of Bright Sorcerers.


    Compared to the Dark Sorcerers, the highly cooperative Bright Sorcerers would pose greaterpetitive edge against them. The Dark Sorcerers could hardly make their presence known; they were only good in surviving alone andunch solo attacks. Thus, their capabilities were also limited.


    At the very least... Grimm felt this way—being an independent, small and weak Dark Demon-Hunter.


    Five hoursses of time had passed.


    Grimm transformed into a flow of light—hovered around the sky of the square, then moved forward into the distance.


    During Grimm’smunication with one of the high-level sorcerers from the district, he had submitted his mission. Then, he was told that there was a bounty mission offered by a Dark Sorcerer from the Shadow Empire. It was a clean-up mission against the Amonros’ guerri force in the Shadow Continent.


    Grimm flew toward the district. However, he was not nning to take on the mission, but he wanted to strengthen his knowledge base on the chimeras. Regardless of its ability to evolve, an experimental chimera would be good enough to provide him support.


    Perhaps, it was the Amonro’s ‘policy of nonresistance’ bothered Grimm.


    Indistinctly...


    Grimm felt as if this world seemed to be infiltrated by the Demon Hunters and the victory would be theirs. However, in reality, it could be just too good to be true. The unknown world that had been long ruled by the Enigmatic Amonros, seemed to be brewing something disastrous from behind the scenes, unknown by the world. As if the truth was hidden under thick shadows.


    Although such feelings have yet to be proven true, it seemed to be a staple feeling in the thoughts of every low-level sorcerer.


    In contrast, high-level sorcerers would only believe what they saw and their own capabilities that were above average. They would y by the rules from past norms and not feel any abnormalities toward the situation.


    If that was the case for the high-level sorcerers, they would most probably look down on the lower level lifeforms and assume that they were just being naive and incapable of controlling themselves nor the direction of this world?


    ...


    Three months had passed.


    Without the mechanical bee that Grimm took when he headed to the ninth district, it took more than three months while moving at full speed to reach the capital. It was the ce of origin for the Void Fortress within the sorcerer world and also the ce where the shadow world hadnded. Before reaching the capital, he had passed a huge Shadow Continent and the Crimson Sun World.


    Grimm had increased his understanding toward the rulesmonly known between the Shadow World and the Sorcerer World as he had been traveling in between the Crimson Sun World and the Shadow World.


    Despite only a small fraction of both worlds that Grimm had seen, he noticed that the rules from the shadow world were not gentle, all rounded, nor interconnected with the basic rules from the sorcerer world.


    This could mean that the shadow world was not ovepping the crimson sun world, hence the big difference among both.


    The differences could cause difficulties for lifeforms from both worlds to adapt to the rules from the opposite world.


    From the example of the rules of the ocean and continent—there would be different ssification in the sorcerer world for shores,kes, streams, et cetera.


    However, sorcerers had already adapted toward the rules of both worlds, not to mention various native lifeforms that had also adapted to live in both environments too.


    Rules from the sorcerer world were interconnected among each other. For instance, the formation of systems, the rotation between the sun and the moon, and the cycle of the four different seasons.


    The rules from the shadow world could be described as ropes that were pinched together. It could only be released without any reversal or even any cyclical formation.


    Thus, the sun only descended once in the shadow world, and some of them were rich in special energy, like the Combustar and Enigmatic Energy. Both had been consuming the world’s Origin Core.


    One day, the world would face extinction.


    Grimm was flying at full speed toward his caveb, and did not head toward the capital or the Void Fortress.


    Once he had entered the Camphoragate Cave, he rushed toward hisb—ignoring the Fallen Amonros that bowed at him.


    After more than twenty years of “feeding and mating” the low-level Amonros that had been living in this shadownd, the Amonros were reproducing their second generation. However, for the Demon Hunter, the duration would only mean nothing more than the time taken for a few missions.


    Compared to the first generation, the second generation of the Amonros had degraded even worse.


    The Demon Hunters had spent twenty years to build their strongest backing on the Shadow Continent, which was the Shadow Empire. It was a pain in the ass for the native Amonros in the world, and also a disgrace for them.


    If such a situation were to be prolonged for another thirty to fifty years, all fallen Amonros would be the most loyal minions for the Demon Hunters in the shadow world, provided they were not all killed.


    Grimm returned to the bottom of theke.


    Everything seemed to be unchanged, same as how it was when Grimm left ten years ago. As if it was only a quick nap for the Water-Crystal Turtle that lives eternally.


    Although the turtle had the ability of eternal life simr to high-level lifeforms, the ability was restricted to the boundaries of this smallke. Thus, it could not be put to greater use.


    In the sorcerer world, the turtle would be described simrly as those sorcerer-apprentices thatpliment others and would only strive when paired with a partner.


    “Master.”


    The turtle opened its eyes and extended its head to greet Grimm.


    Grimm did not even look at the turtle as his face was hidden under his mask. The presence of the turtle does not mean anything to him anymore and it was just another Soul ve to him. Grimm stepped on the surface of theke and created ripples along the way as he walked toward hisb.


    However, it was totally different case for Lord Myna, as he had been bored along the way, he enjoyedmanding and bullying his servant now that he had one.


    “Caw, caw! Little turtle, your master is now back...”


    Lord Myna held a Flesh Fruit in his mouth and spat it far away. He then yelled arrogantly, “Quick, return it to your master!”


    The turtle slowly glided across theke without a choice, and bit on the fruit...


    Grimm waved his hand and cast magic power to unlock the magical array at the entrance of theb. He took a stroll around theb and cut across to the center of theb and mumbled some sorcery curses. Suddenly, dark and golden mes appeared and a Greedy me Giant that was five meters tall stood up in theb.


    Roar!


    The giant let out a loud roar and frightened the turtle that was being summoned by Lord Myna. It immediately shrank into a small crystal ball.


    “This...is the true breath of the Ancient Lava Giants! Impossible, this is impossible, how could the Lava Giants leave the perishingnd? Impossible, impossible...”


    Grimm looked at the Lava Giant that stood in hisb, amazed and enlightened by the ck and golden colored mes that formed the giant.


    The giant’s evolution had already beenpleted years ago. However, it was not presented until now since Grimm did not put in much effort in researching, part of it was also because of theck ofbat mission taken by Grimm.


    Hence, the first thing Grimm did once he arrived at hisb was to observe the current state of the giant.


    Its soul and hatred eating abilities had not changed.


    Its mes were ck when the attacking power was lower. Now, the golden me had increased its temperature tremendously. Also, the giant seemed to be able to absorb fire attributes energy on arge scale.


    Both resistance and absorbance were totally different!


    Grimm was amazed by what he had realized. The Lava Crystal was not an average Lava Crystal that wasmonly known, and there would definitely be unknown stories behind.


    Hmm?


    Would this be the Lava Refining ability?


    Suddenly, the giant let out a deep howl and its temperature spiked, while the ground below its foot began to soften. Under the giant, the ground had melted and formed into ayer of Lava Armor and a Lava Greatsword.


    The temperature of the giant was zing hot while its face was covered with red mes. Even Grimm felt as if he was being roasted, despite his high resistance toward the fire elements.


    Badump!


    Suddenly, a strong heartbeat sound exploded from within the body of the giant, and the fire elements underground were in a mess.


    The ability within the me Territory!


    Grimm was excited and he examined the giant that was before him, with his Ashen Mask on. He murmured, “The amount of change is so huge and it is now irrelevant to name it the Greedy me Giant. From now on, let’s call it the Savage me Giant!”
