Fortunately, excuses were easy to find.
Carl had won, clearly relying on the Demonized Item he had activated at the start.
"Senior Arthur." Carl bowed, ignoring the commotion in the room. "I request to divide the inheritance left by our tutor."
"No problem." Arthur nodded. He glanced at Hibell, who had fainted earlier from severe emotional distress, then said, "Adolf's inheritance is on his island, and the Grey Robed Wizard holds the key to enter the island."
An island? A key? Carl's gaze flickered.
「The Black Swamp」
It was aptly named. All sorts of bizarre, ferocious trees stretched their branches towards the sky, blocking the sunlight and causing complete darkness below. The omnipresent swamp was a natural trap; once one fell into it, the more they struggled, the deeper they sank. Even a Knight could easily lose their life if not careful. Not to mention the invisible miasma and dangerous Magic Creatures, which made the Black Swamp a forbidden zone for humans.
