Her answer only seemed to frustrate Luke, who growled, making her take several steps back and Anthony ask, "Are you okay?""I'm good," she said as she glanced in Anthony's direction before looking back at Luke.Their moment was interrupted by the angel, who seemingly didn't notice anything amiss. "Heroes, I hope all of you have had time to think about my words, for the time has come to send you on your journey.""Wait!" they cried, but the angel ignored them.Several people were shouting or demanding answers from the angel when magic circles formed beneath everyone. "I pray for your victory, young heroes."Suddenly, everything froze and took on a monochrome color. Luke tensed at the sudden change and was instantly on guard. However, nothing happened. In fact, the only person who could

The new Grace turned to him as she asked, "Are you okay, Luke?"After dealing with two Graces, Luke was admittedly reluctant to let her come near him. What if she decided to break his neck with her staff as soon as she got close enough? No, he wasn't going to let her get close until he was absolutely certain this was actually Grace. She looked at him with hurt eyes as he backed away from her. However, she was soon distracted by the other Grace, who swung her staff at her.She was able to block the swing with her staff, but she was sent stumbling from the force. As soon as the new Grace recovered, she held her staff in front of her as they stared each other down. Luke took the opportunity to slowly back away, even as his head throbbed painfully. He needed to get as much distance between them as possible while they were distracted.Making sure not to show

Instead of a red line, it came out black. While they were confused by the color, they ignored it as Luke drew a door in the floor. If there wasn't a keyhole for them to use the key on, then he would make one himself. If this didn't work, then he would simply draw something else until he finally drew something that would get them out of there.Once his crude picture was finished, the lines glowed, and a real door formed on the floor right in front of their eyes. They stared in awe at the miracle in front of them. Luke then studied the pen in his hands as he truly wondered where this miraculous item had come from. It might possibly belong to the god of this world if he dared say so, but he quickly remembered what the demon king had said about it.Shaking his head from those thoughts, he said, "Now let's try to unlock."Using the key they had in their poss

The demon king was right that it couldn't be a coincidence that he had it, but there was no point in trying to figure out the reason why the creator gave him such an item. He had no one he could talk to about the creator to get a better idea of their character. Also, it wouldn't change the fact that he now wielded the most powerful item in the world.Luke asked, "Then is it possible to create anything I want with it?"[I can't say. It's only a fragment, so there should be limitations.]As his face took on a thoughtful look, 'Kayla' said, "We can't stay here. Others will pass by and spot you.""Where can we go?" Grace asked as she scanned the area. "We don't know the place.""Unfortunately, I still have to obey this guy and ensure you're safe," 'Kayla' said as she jabbed a thumb in Luk

However, once the thought crossed Luke's mind, it was impossible to ignore. Now that he knew about the existence of the creator, he found his mind wondering how much of his actions had been monitored by them. Had they been watching from the very beginning, getting some sick joy watching him struggle and suffer for years in this place because they decided they enjoyed watching them fight?[It would certainly explain some things.]"What do you mean?" Luke asked as the duo ducked into an empty room to avoid the angels they saw in the distance.[Your original plan to get revenge had been to sneak a place into the princess's heart and go from there. However, despite your best efforts, it failed, and you even left the kingdom to go on a year long journey that was cut short. You should understand what I'm implying.]He did, b
