"Well, if he is on your hit list, you'll need more time to kill him and the rest on your list," Erix wryly smiled.
"Yep, but it won't be that long," Lilith cheekily grinned. "All thanks to you. Let's get you to manifest your Bloodline, and then Rin and I can also evolve our Bloodline through you."
"Pff, many already backed down," Rin chuckled upon seeing many returning to their seats after Bald Beast was killed.
"Anyone else wants to try?" Celene asked with a smile since the first come first serve didn't apply as many backed down.
Naturally, some still wanted to try and were confident.
The next one was a Royal-order.
He turned insane within two seconds.
After that, three more came, and all of them couldn't recover after one minute of turning insane and were ultimately killed by Executioner Lambo.
"You two still want to try?" Amu asked, eyeing Rin and Erix from the side.
Rin and Erix smiled as they stood up and left the room.
"Lady Lilith..." Lily was confident but worried at the same time.
Lilith shook her head, "Let them go. This is their path."
"Yes. A certain way of living is a must, and these two have it. It increases your soul's potential a lot," Amu nodded.
"They had decided and are fully aware of the dire consequences," Lilith said. "If they die, it only means their journey was until that moment."
"But they won't die," Lilith added with conviction, her voice firm as she believed in Rin and Erix.
Behind the stage, a middle-aged man sat on the floor cross-legged. He had long black hair and a long wild black beard.
'This is the last chance. I'll have to go to another Abyss if no one here succeeds in resonating with the statue.'
The old man was watching the platform, and he was the one who brought the statue here.
"Two more? Let's see," the old man looked at Rin and Erix arriving from behind the platform.
After arriving before the statue, Erix said, "We'll look at it together."
"Noble-order?!"
"Are they nuts?"
"I feel like I saw them somewhere..."
"They must have a death wish, haha. That's why they came here together."
Rin and Erix could hear taunts, exclamations, and sneers, but they remained unperturbed.
'Whether they follow up having it in the future is up to you.'
"It seems we can move to the next item now," Selene smiled and announced, but the entire dome was still silent.
Even more silent after the announcement.
But this silence only lasted for a few seconds before an uproar erupted.
Rin and Erix were still in the trans as the statue continued shining.
After half a minute, the statue mysteriously turned into white motes with a purple hue and vanished.
However, Rin and Erix gained an additional thing.
A mark. An Eye.
However, nobody could see this mark.
Both Rin and Erix had a closed vertical eye on their forehead as a mark after the statue turned into the motes.
Both of them opened their eyes, and their grips holding each other's hands tightened.
[Congratulations. You have been marked as one of the candidates for the 9th dimension's Paradox Path Inheritance that will begin after four hundred and thirty-seven years.]
[Please survive and get strong enough until then.]
When they got this notification, both of them wryly smiled and put it away at the back of their mind.
However, what they gained was not only the notification.
"Let's return," Erix vanished from the spot and teleported directly into their VIP room, shocking everyone.
"I remember now! Those two are Fist of Abyss and Anarchic Blade Dancer!"
Uproar ensued again as people in the dome discussed, but they soon quieted down as Selene's voice suppressed theirs and spread.
"Everyone! Let's present you all with the next item. It's a Weapon Seed with a spirit, specifically attributed towards Ice and having a source of an attribute-concept of ice!"
Meanwhile, Rin and Erix were sharing the details of the statue and what they found with others.
"I can't sense anything in your forehead," Amu said with squinting eyes.
"Eh, but we felt it," Erix rubbed his forehead.
"Forget, it will appear later when the time comes I guess," Rin chuckled.
"Yep, we gained something else, a more concrete benefit too," Erix grinned.
Waving his hand, Erix and Rin shared a particular detail in the party as everyone saw a window panel.
