Dark Eldar

"Everything will pass. Believe in yourself, believe in this saying..." —Otherworldly Rules 533.1

The creator of "Satan the Demon King"—"Moray." What a terrifying name! In the present world, no one dares to mention it. Tracing back to Hell, at most it's "Satan the Demon King," but before that, no one dares utter a single word, for fear of awakening this "true god" on par with the "Creator."

The quirky and clever Rona left the commander's tent and lay in the dormitory hall, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. "The future will involve me. Will I perish with the 17th Legion, or will I take control of my own destiny? That is the question."

"If only 'Ben' were here, two highly agile assassins working together, what couldn't they do?" Lorna deeply missed Benjamin VI, though she sometimes expressed resentment. She only knew Benjamin's given name, "Ben." But that didn't matter. Having someone to care about was always a beautiful thing, better than nothing at all.

Benjamin is currently in the "otherworldly" temple. Under the influence of this unique environment, he has gradually become "desireless," and Elder Schopenhauer's "admonition" has had its effect. However, Elder Schopenhauer is "powerless" to help him on his path to advancement. This otherworld is unlike the "Mysterious Island," and Schopenhauer lacks the patience to learn Elder Izo's focused and "forced" approach. After all, according to seniority, Schopenhauer should address the elf Izo as "Master"... (Teacher's Teacher)

After completing their mission, Loki and Edward III both found themselves in another world. The three of them were busy with their own lives. Loki spent most of his time "resting" in his quarters, still angry (about the Black Dragon King "Saberian" freezing him). However, under the "unusually peaceful" (holy) environment of the Sanctuary, he seemed to be gradually becoming "desireless," just like Benjamin.

Edward III, after returning to the alternate world, continued to be highly regarded by Schopenhauer. The "alternate world" couldn't change his "positive side"—a kind of "obsession" that would later lead him to become like Schopenhauer. Schopenhauer, of course, understood what young people were thinking; he was adept at it. However, when faced with Loki's "carefree" attitude, he was completely bewildered.

Elder Schopenhauer pondered: "How could a seemingly idle wanderer forge such a magnificent 'artifact'? When will my beloved disciple rise to prominence like Loki... Distractions! Interruption!! How can I, as the Grand Elder of this other world, have such distracting thoughts?? Hmm, hmm, I should think of it this way: Loki is quite good; he will surely become my successor in the future! This was also Elder Joseph's wish back then! I wonder if my teacher is still alive? Master, please enlighten me..." Schopenhauer instantly entered meditation. He dared not casually use "soul wandering," after all, he now bore a heavy burden. (If Schopenhauer wished, with his cultivation level, a "comprehensive search" shouldn't take too long. However, doing so would be truly "extremely dangerous." Occasionally, he would only use "safe mode.")

The Dark Legion, ever watchful, constantly observes the "other world," though they cannot see it through the crystal ball. However, they have other "eyes and ears" planted there. (This needs to be awakened; normally it acts as a "mediocre" dummy, spying on the other world through the eyes of a dummy via a "magical bridge." A high-level dark magic technique, a little-known "hidden skill" of "Victor," one of the eight Dark Commanders; "ineffective against those with unwavering faith.")

Before being awakened, no one knew who the "spy" was. (Speculation: Most likely a mid-level mage. It's also possible it's a gentle elder; after all, a high-level "dark magic book" is a valuable trade item, and misguided archmages have been common throughout history...)
