Starting from primitive world, building the strongest divine kingdom

The announcement of leaving The Grey Wolf Royal Family and heading to Crimson Lake...

That stirred outrage among the royal family members, who began to discuss it heatedly.

However, Crimson Lake was not to be underestimated.

They dared not openly criticize Crimson Lake and instead looked angrily at Matthew, expecting an explanation.

Matthew, smiling, said, "You see, Mr. Enzo has left The Grey Wolf Royal Family. There is nothing I can do."

"This violates the rules!" someone shouted.

The speaker was not Lusca.

After hearing that, Matthew immediately countered, "The Grey Wolf Royal Family has not violated any rules. During the arena competition, Mr. Enzo was indeed a temporary member of The Grey Wolf Royal Family. Now that the competition is over, he chose to leave.

This does not violate any rules. Otherwise, how could Mr. Enzo still have the supernatural Trial Crystal?"

These words left the crowd unable to refute.

But the public humiliation was deeply unsettling.

Especially for Lusca.

He glanced at Enzo in the arena, knowing there was nothing he could do at this moment, and bitterly told the other Ice Moon Royal Family members, "Let\'s go!"

As the Ice Moon Royal Family members departed, others began to leave as well.

That marked the hasty end of the arena competition.

However, the commotion it caused continued to escalate.

...

In the underground palace of the Ice Moon Royal Family.

Lusca sat in the hall, angrily smashing the sculptures placed around him. The sculptures crashed to the floor with a sharp noise.

"Enough, Lusca."

An elder spoke from the long table in the hall.

He had once been a guard of the Ice Moon Queen, powerful in his own right, though not holding an official position, his status remained significant.

Lusca, seething with anger, said, "Mr. Delonte, we were mocked! By that damned leader Matthew of The Grey Wolf Royal Family and the manager of Crimson Lake! This is a disgrace to the Ice Moon Royal Family!

Moreover, other royal families chose to ignore this. They took many resources granted by Queen and promised to abandon the competition for the supernatural Trial Crystal! Now that the crystal is gone, how are we supposed to explain this to Queen?"

"Lusca, be quiet!"

Delonte reprimanded immediately.

Lusca wanted to retort but noticed that Eve had also arrived in the underground palace, and it was clear that she had overheard his earlier remarks.

Lusca felt a bit embarrassed.

The information Lusca had shared was meant to be confidential, known to very few within the Ice Moon Royal Family. It involved compromising royal interests, although Queen was ultimately responsible.

However, the survival of the Ice Moon Royal Family depended on the efforts of successive generations of royal members. While there had been times when managers\' lives waned, they had never chosen to sacrifice royal interests.

Eve was known for her meticulous nature.

However Lusca realized something was wrong .Eve did not show anger but instead calmly asked, "When did Queen Lord decide to do this?"

Lusca fell silent and looked at Delonte.

Delonte sighed and replied, "It wasn\'t a recent decision. It has always been this way. Few can face it openly. Moreover, Queen possesses extraordinary wisdom.

If she could participate in the trials and gain corresponding opportunities, she could extend her life and make the Ice Moon Royal Family even stronger."

Eve did not argue.

She listened quietly but felt a growing disappointment with the Ice Moon Royal Family.

Delonte offered a request, "Eve, I know you are angry and disgusted by this behavior. However, Queen Lord is the administrator of the Ice Moon Royal Family, and she needs the supernatural Trial Crystal. I hope you can make another trip to Crimson Lake and bring back that crystal at any cost."

Eve did not agree outright

But she said, "It\'s time for me to visit Crimson Lake again."

This response thrilled Delonte and Lusca, who believed Eve had accepted the request. However, they were unaware of the nature of Eve\'s relationship with Enzo.

Eve\'s real intent was simply to see Enzo.

After leaving the underground palace, she easily opened a space portal and entered Crimson Lake without encountering any obstacles, smoothly making her way into the palace.

Inside the palace, she found Enzo.

Enzo smiled and asked, "Did they send you here to trade for the supernatural Trial Crystal?"

Eve sat down beside Enzo and nodded.

Eve continued, "When I first learned the truth, I wasn\'t as angry as I expected. Every being fears death. It\'s instinctive."

She added, "But the supernatural trial is highly risky. "

"There have been members of the royal family who participated before, but most gained nothing, and some even died during the trials. Only a few benefitted."

"However those few were likely to achieve success even without the trials."

"..."

Eve shared many stories, resting her head on Enzo\'s shoulder as they spoke.

As they talked, their bodies moved closer together.

Soon, the palace was filled with passionate sounds that continued until the next morning, when Eve awoke in Enzo\'s arms.

"Awake?"

Enzo asked with a smile.

Eve stretched, noticing the marks on her body and recalling the intense events of the previous day. Feeling a surge of emotions, she controlled her desires, gently kissed Enzo, and said, "I\'m heading back."

"Wait!"

Enzo stopped her and handed her the supernatural Trial Crystal. "This is for you. How you handle it is up to you."

"I..."

Eve hesitated to refuse, but the words didn\'t come out. At that moment, she thought that with the supernatural Trial Crystal, achieving her goals was highly likely.

So, she accepted it.

She kissed Enzo once more and said, "Wait for me to come back."

With that, Eve left Crimson Lake.

Upon returning to the Ice Moon Royal Family, she didn\'t find Lusca and Delonte in the underground palace, so she headed to Ice Moon Fortress. At the entrance of the fortress, Lusca and Delonte were waiting.

Seeing Eve return, they rushed to greet her.

Lusca asked urgently, "Eve, what\'s the situation? Did Enzo agree to give the supernatural Trial Crystal? What did it cost?"

Delonte also looked on eagerly.

Eve remained silent as she took out the supernatural Trial Crystal and placed it at the entrance of the fortress.

"Well done."

Came the voice of Ice Moon Queen from inside the fortress.

The supernatural Trial Crystal floated up and flew into the hands of the Ice Moon Queen.

Then she asked, "What was the cost?"

Eve said calmly, "I traded myself to him. From now on, Eve will no longer be a member of the Ice Moon Royal Family."

Hearing this, Delonte was distraught.

He was so anxious that he couldn\'t even speak clearly. "Eve, how could you do this?"

At that moment, Ice Moon Queen\'s voice echoed from within the fortress.

Her voice was cold and indifferent."She was always destined to be a traitor. There is no need for pity. Trading herself for the supernatural Trial Crystal was what she was supposed to do. Lusca, from today on, you are the new leader of the Ice Moon Royal Family and will command the Shadow Corps."

Eve also heard these words.

Eve was stunned to hear such words from the Ice Moon Queen, for whom she had been loyal for so long. At that moment, she felt no attachment to the Ice Moon Royal Family.

Eve left without hesitation.

Delonte sighed deeply, glancing at the excited Lusca, feeling more troubled.

Leaving the Ice Moon Royal Family, Eve returned to Crimson Lake, taking less than half a day.

Enzo looked at her and asked, "Is everything taken care of?"

Eve nodded and said, "I handed the supernatural Trial Crystal to Ice Moon Queen. From now on, I will only be yours. Whatever you want to do with me, I will accept."

Enzo had anticipated this outcome.

Regardless, it was ultimately a favorable result.

Snow Fox Territory.

Andrew had been back for several days, but many members of the Snow Fox Territory noticed something strange. Since his return, Andrew had become taciturn and lacked the enthusiasm to greet his fellow clan members, leading to various unsettling speculations.

At that moment, in front of Andrew\'s residence.

"Princess Amy, what brings you here? I\'ll go inform Lord Andrew," said the servant responsible for Andrew\'s daily affairs, surprised.

Amy smiled and replied, "No need. I\'ll see Mr. Andrew myself."

With that, Amy entered the residence.

She called out, "Mr. Andrew."

Hearing Amy\'s voice, Andrew emerged. The moment he saw her, he was overwhelmed with self-reproach, regretting ever having such thoughts. But now, it was too late.

Noticing Andrew\'s unusual demeanor, Amy asked, "Mr. Andrew, did something happen during your outing?"

Andrew knelt on the ground and said, "Princess, I have made a mistake."
