Devil's Bible

"Teacher... can you tell me what happened?" the shadowy figure asked.

His eyes would shift between moments of clarity and moments of confusion, as if he were a person on the verge of madness.

"You're asking me for help?" Kru looked at the other person, a strange feeling flashing through his mind.

This shadowy figure seems to have some connection with me, but the connection isn't particularly deep.

and……

Kru suddenly realized that he had previously used his vision ability to see the illusory relationships behind everything.

Of all those fantasies, I chose the one related to the other person's shadow.

I used to think it was just a casual thing to do, but now it seems that it might not be.

“I can vaguely sense some familiar power within you,” the shadowy figure said. “There seems to be an alliance between us…”

Kru looked at the other person, sensing the shadow power within their body, and then detected some fluctuations within it, which roughly confirmed that the other person was not lying.

"In that case, we need to be frank and open with each other."

Kru looked at the shadowy figure, then seemed to remember the figure's name—Atata.

A name that seems somewhat familiar, yet also feels strange.

Klu and the other party then exchanged some information.

After Atata regained consciousness, he felt an unusual intimacy between himself and the shadows, and when he was in the shadows, he always realized one thing—he shouldn't be like this.

This mismatch between self-perception and reality once made Atata think she was going crazy.

But when he woke up this morning, he went to the shadows again and then he realized something.

There was something in that shadow, something that seemed to have been left behind by him.

It was with this feeling that his perception changed slightly.

As things changed, he became aware of some problems with Kru.

As night was approaching, he finally came to Kru to confirm.

From the other person, Kru roughly determined some things.

He needed to be more clear-headed. The presence of the wooden bird gave him more advantages than these people, allowing him to calmly observe the various anomalies in the church.

"If I'm not mistaken, it's probably a cognitive issue."

"Our daytime cognition is entirely compiled by some powerful being."

"He was determined to preserve the existence of the Earth Church."

"But at night, this maintenance loses its effectiveness."

"It can only suppress our original cognitive personality."

After giving a brief explanation, Krue ordered Atata to obey and lie in wait in the shadows.

Klu then observed the shadowy figure of the enemy lurking there, which, in his illusion, resembled a huge pool of water.

And within the pool, it seemed as if countless things were churning.

With that thought in mind, Kru walked into the shadows.

At that very moment, Vision's power solidified, and Kru truly stepped into a world made of shadows.

Atata, who had originally been standing in the shadows, seemed to have sensed something and subsequently appeared in this shadowy world as well.

Klu was taken aback for a moment, and then he received a response.

His visionary powers reconstructed the shadows, thus gaining a new ability—the Shadow Garden.

He could enter the shadow courtyard from any point larger than himself. Once inside, he could briefly escape the outside world.

At the same time, the two shadow abilities he had previously acquired, Shadow Wolf and Shadow Cloak, were also enhanced by the Shadow Garden.

The shadow wolf, transformed into a wolf shadow, became much larger and its movements became more agile.

In addition, the wolf shadow can also separate from its own body and be controlled by its own consciousness.

The Shadow Cloak allows for multiple shadow jumps after being worn, but the number of jumps is not unlimited.

Both the shaded courtyard and the shadow jump will bring a certain amount of shadow pollution.

The longer you stay, the more pollution you will experience.

At this moment, however, Kru paid no attention to the pollution problem. He felt that after entering the Shadow Courtyard and being isolated from some of the external influences, his understanding was rapidly becoming richer.

It seemed as if he had walked a very, very long way.

Ahead of him stood a towering figure, who continued walking forward, and he followed behind that person.

The moment Kru saw the other person, he knew who it was—Lord Nemus!

Although they didn't know the specifics of their own experiences, the heartfelt respect and trust they felt for each other were genuine.

"Kru, this is your chance. Whether you can obtain the divine spark and bring it back to me depends on you." At this moment, Nemus seemed to say this.

Then, Nems continued walking forward, his figure growing farther and farther away, while Kru stood still, watching Nems's retreating figure.

Should we chase after them, or...?

Krue vaguely sensed an alternative path.

Before he could take a closer look, Kru was jolted awake from the hallucination by a sharp pain.

It was only then that he realized that the pollution of his own shadow had become quite severe.

Fortunately, Atata seemed to have regained his senses by this time. He came to Kru's side, and a shadowy power writhed, absorbing a lot of the pollution from Kru's body.

However, there are still some that even Atata doesn't have a good solution for.

At this moment, some knowledge also surfaced in Klu's mind.

For example, some more sophisticated curse techniques.

And some information about their own identity.

For example, he currently appears to be a demon lord on the 333rd floor.

Atata appears to be a demon lord as well, and there is indeed an alliance between them.

only……

"Did you come in for the divine title?" Kru thought of Lord Nemes' words, and his gaze toward Atata became 'trustworthy,' concealing his true emotions.

After a brief exchange, Atata said he had remembered something and that his control over the shadows had become even stronger.

Atata didn't know why they were there, only saying that she vaguely remembered coming to find something.

"Did he really not remember, or is he lying to me and setting a trap..."

"Also, is he really unable to clean it up completely for me, or is he deliberately leaving this bit of contamination?" Kru stepped out of the shadowy courtyard, sensing something was amiss.

Shadow-type abilities are very powerful, allowing them to avoid most dangers at night.

If it weren't for Atata, the use of these three shadow abilities would be limited.

However, placing too much trust in this ability may create hidden dangers.

Meanwhile, after leaving the Shadow Courtyard, Kru could feel the shadow contamination on his body, which even Atata had found difficult to cleanse, slowly disappearing. (End of Chapter)
