Chapter Eighty-Three
Flying high above the shattered mountains on his Thunder Roc, Crow sped toward the next location he had marked —
but halfway there, his Eye of Insight suddenly triggered, flashing an urgent warning.
Hidden deep below a canyon, masked by multiple illusion arrays, there was something... powerful.
Something even the system had not mentioned.
Crow's lips curved into a rare smile.
Unmarked treasure.
He dived downward, layers of illusions shattering like glass before his authority.
At the bottom of the canyon, an ancient, black stone altar pulsed with crimson energy.
Chained to it, asleep, was a horned girl — skin pale, hair black as midnight, and two beautiful black wings curled around her.
Above her hovered faint text:
[Divine Rank Unit - Lilith, Crimson Demon Empress]
Status: Sealed - Break the chains to claim.
Crow approached with casual confidence.
A normal player would have needed complex rituals, sacrifices, or dozens of high priests to break the seals.
Crow simply raised his hand and cast Endless Dominion, combining it with a surge of Divine Contract.
The chains snapped like twigs.
The moment they did, her eyes snapped open — twin pools of glowing red.
She looked at Crow... then, to his amusement, immediately knelt on one knee.
"I offer myself to you, my Sovereign."
System Notifications flooded in:
[You have acquired Divine Rank Unit: Lilith, Crimson Demon Empress!]
[All Undead and Dark Attribute units gain +25% Attack and +20% Defense permanently.]
[Warning: Lilith's loyalty is absolute, but she is fiercely possessive.]
Lilith floated upward gracefully and, without hesitation, pressed herself against Crow's side, a mischievous smirk on her lips.
Seraphina immediately flared with ghostly jealousy.
Seloria gave an annoyed hum.
Sasha's sword glowed ominously.
Crow didn't react, only giving Lilith a brief head pat to calm her down.
He turned back toward the skies, issuing mental orders.
Next target:
The final Divine Hidden Quest location...
and no one was going to stop him.
