On this day, in an ancient shrine at the top of a short mountain covered in green clothes, along with a burst of vague tremors in space, the figures of a man and two women appeared in a house in the backyard of the shrine.
They were the family of Sei Itō, his mother Eriko, and his elder sister Suzu Ito who had returned to the main world after completing the devouring of the God Slayer's world.
Among them, his mother, Eriko, and his elder sister, Ito Rin, had both comprehended a clear enough law during the process of devouring worlds and had a solid foundation. They had reached a state where they could break through at any time and soon, respectively, so they returned to the Origin World to comprehend and correct their own strength, completing the final accumulation and breaking through.
As for the other two family members, Don Ito and Ito Reina, one of them had not reached the edge of a breakthrough because of his insufficient foundation. Therefore, he continued to stay in the Rubik's cube world to cultivate while helping Sei Itō manage the Yin Yang and Forbidden Dao forces on the Spirit Eating Continent. The other was sent to the university in the Rubik's cube world to study by Eriko. In addition, her own strength was not enough for her to be naughty, so she was left alone in the Rubik's cube world.
"Although the layout of the room and the environment are still the same, there is an unexpected sense of nostalgia." Suzu Ito looked at the room and sighed.
"After all, this is the starting point of everything. It's inevitable to have some feelings." Sei Itō smiled and said, "If you live there for a few more years, I believe you will have more feelings when you come back."
"Probably." Suzu Ito tilted her head slightly and said with a thoughtful look on her face.
"You two have a chat. I'm going into seclusion." At this moment, Eriko looked at Sei Itō and Suzu Ito who were talking and said with a warm smile.
"I'll send you there." Sei Itō and Suzu Ito heard this and said almost in unison.
Then, Sei Itō and Suzu Ito looked at each other and smiled. They clustered around Eriko and walked out of the house to a rockery in the backyard of the house. They activated the mechanism inside the rockery and watched Eriko disappear into the passage that slowly closed again.
"It's us siblings living together again." After the passage was completely closed, Suzu Ito walked to Sei Itō. She stretched out her hands and put them on his shoulders and said with a smile.
"So, if you want to bring a woman home, remember to inform me in advance. Otherwise, it won't be good if I ruin your good thing.
"Ugh … Can you think of me?" Sei Itō looked speechlessly at Suzu Ito.
"It's because I'm confident in you that I said that." Suzu Ito smiled.
"Tsk, I can't be bothered with you." Sei Itō curled his lips and then put his hands in between Suzu Ito's arms. He pushed her arms off his shoulders and turned to walk back to the house.
Suzu Ito saw this and smiled and walked slowly back to the house.
In the following days, Suzu Ito learned from her mother, Eriko, in addition to three meals a day and appropriate rest time. She also practiced in isolation at home and revised the rules she had learned to hone her foundation.
In contrast. Sei Itō returned to his usual self. He either chatted with Kuraki Mai on the phone or went out for a meal together. Then, he went to the [Magical Realm] in the United Kingdom to continue flipping through the Great Merlin Map to enrich his collection. During this period, he didn't know if the Church had given up on pursuing him or if they had other plans, but they didn't attack him again. This allowed Sei Itō to live a carefree life in peace.
Just like this, time passed by unknowingly, and it was now June …
On an uninhabited island in the British Pacific Ocean. A tall and burly golden-haired man was standing at the edge of a huge magic array with complicated patterns on the ground. He was wearing a black robe with strange golden patterns on the collar, cuffs, hem, and waist. His face was stiff, but a cold red light flashed at the bottom of his blue eyes from time to time. He gave off a strange feeling. He was silent and nobody knew what he was thinking.
If Sei Itō was here at this time, he would definitely recognize that this man was Adam Hill, the grand knight who led the Knights of the Round Table in the exploration of ruins organized by Bartlett, one of the councilors of the Sage Parliament of the Alchemist Union.
Not far behind him, a few burly men with serious expressions were holding metal swords and spears. They stared coldly at the hundreds of people on the ground, ranging in age from the old to the young. There were men and women of all genders, and they were all tied up by a thick hemp rope. Their faces were filled with panic and fear.
In this oppressive silence, the day turned into night in the blink of an eye. The stars and the slanting moon quietly appeared in the sky.
At this moment, Adam Hill, who had been standing in the same place without moving, said with a hoarse voice, "Throw them into the magic circle." He spoke with a strange tone.
After he finished speaking, the burly men who had been standing with him for a day did not say anything. They directly responded to his order with actions. They stepped forward and picked up one or two men, women, and children, and strode to the magic circle and threw them one by one into the magic circle.
For these burly men who had obviously undergone special training, transporting more than a hundred people was an extremely easy job. Therefore, it only took a few minutes for all the people who were tied up to be thrown into the magic circle.
At this time, perhaps they felt the impending danger, the people who had been suppressed in the magic circle for a day suddenly began to cry and scream. They were nervously venting their fear of the unknown.
However, this had no effect on the man outside the magic circle. He used a calm voice that easily suppressed the cries and curses of more than a hundred people and ordered, "The blood sacrifice begins!"
When the burly men heard this, they paused for a moment. However, they still faithfully carried out Adam Hill's order. They waved the weapons in their hands and killed the men and women in the magic circle on the spot.
"Puff … Puff … Puff …" Hot blood spurted out from the bodies of the dead like arrows, staining the bodies and faces of the tall and sturdy men who were the executioners, making them look even more ferocious and terrifying under the pitch-black night sky.
At the same time, as the blood increased, it turned into a stream of bright red blood that flowed along the corpses and the ground. When it came into contact with the magic circle on the ground, it strangely flowed along the lines automatically. In less than half an hour, the entire magic circle was completely contaminated.
Seeing this, Adam Hill, who was wearing a long robe like a sorcerer, opened his mouth and chanted a long, strange spell in a strange language that no one present had ever heard of. It was a strange spell that had an unusual sense of enchantment.
Under the influence of this incantation, a faint red light slowly emerged from the blood-soaked formation, and as the incantation continued, it became a bright red.
This state lasted for no less than ten minutes.
"Puff!" A jet of dark blood spurted out from Adam Hill's mouth and splashed into the magic circle.
The moment the blood fell into the magic circle, a wisp of black smoke quickly rose from the magic circle. Immediately after, the smoke changed shape and turned into a monstrous face like a demon. It opened its mouth and swallowed all the hundreds of corpses in the magic circle.
In the next moment, the monstrous face that had eaten and drunk its fill seemed to be laughing at something. It revealed a strange and soundless smile. Then, it suddenly dissipated into nothingness and disappeared into the magic circle.
Then, there was a long silence of several minutes.
Just when the burly men thought that the ritual had failed, a slender vertical line silently appeared in the center of the magic circle and evenly divided the magic circle into two. Then, like the door of an elevator gradually opening, the magic circle expanded on both sides. In a short while, the magic circle's range completely turned into a pitch-black bottomless hole.
"Caw caw caw caw caw …" Ten seconds after the portal opened, a strange and creepy laughter sounded from the dark passage. A large flock of huge strange birds that looked like crows but were as big as eagles flew out of the passage and covered the entire sky in a blink of an eye.

And this was only the beginning … After that, a large number of strange creatures of different shapes and sizes that were definitely not ordinary earth creatures, or even creatures that were not earth creatures at all, flew out of the passage one after another.
And among them, in addition to the physical monsters, there were also some ghost-like shadows that ran out of the passage when people were not paying attention. They pounced on the burly men and drilled into their bodies while they let out miserable screams … Then, after ten minutes, they turned into ferocious-looking, mutated monsters that crawled up from the ground and ran away while screaming.
"Roar!" Just as the creatures that came out of the passage covered the entire uninhabited island and began to invade the sea surface, a beastly roar suddenly came from the passage. Then, a huge monster that was more than fifteen meters long, seven to eight meters tall, four legs, the body of a leopard, the head of a dog, and the tail of a scorpion, with dozens of pairs of white eyes and black pupils all over its body, jumped out of the passage.
But after this monster appeared, it did not immediately leave like the other monsters. Instead, after sniffing something, it slowly walked up to Adam Hill and lay down like a domestic animal.
"Very good." Adam Hill reached out and patted the monster's head, grinning.
"Eastham, you'll be in charge of the magic circle now." Adam Hill ordered as he jumped onto the monster's head and patted it lightly.
"Roar!" The huge monster named Eastham growled and stood up at the edge of the magic circle. It waved its paw and slapped the ground at the edge of the magic circle. Then, a huge aura that was not much different from the aura of the God of Disobedience erupted from the monster's body, stirring up the sky above the uninhabited island and causing a gust of wind and clouds to surge.
