In an unknown place, a figure appeared out of thin air, dropping to its knees weakly.

The figure belonged to a woman who was covered in an Armor from top to bottom, leaving not even an inch of her skin visible. Only her long hair could be seen, waving with the wind.

The woman didn't appear to be in any good condition as she held her stomach. Soon, her Armor also disappeared, revealing the woman who was inside. Her Majestic sword also vanished with the Armor.

Her face was finally visible; unfortunately, there was no one to see it now. Her face appeared to be very pale, and her expressions were of pain. Her clothes were already covered in blood. Blood also trickled down her lips as she grimly observed her wounds with her beautiful hazel eyes.

"I should've been more careful." Her wound still hadn't stopped bleeding, and even her head was dizzy.

Her vision had become blurry long ago, so it was already getting hard for her to keep her focus on things.

She wiped the blood from her lips and used that blood to make something on the barrel land.

She made a blood circle on the ground and wrote some mysterious words inside the blood circle. She connected those words to the blood circle.

As soon as she finished, the blood circle started shining in a mysterious bright light. It was as if her blood had started powering the mysterious formation circle.

Following a brief moment of shining, the entire formation circle turned pitch black. It was as if a black hole had appeared between the circle.

Avila tried really hard not to faint at the moment. She had fought so many battles, yet she had never been wounded this badly, all because she was more careful in the past.

She inserted her hand inside the Blackhole, seemingly looking for something. As she pulled out her hand, a small and round black pill could be seen in her hands.

She opened her lips and placed that pill in her mouth, falling to the ground. She finally lost consciousness out of weakness.

As soon as the pill entered her lips, her wound started healing. However, that wasn't the strange part. The strangest part was that the blood from her clothes had also started disappearing as if it was going back to her body. The torn clothes also started recovering to their original condition.

The trail of blood that came from her lips also retreated. It was as if her body was going backward in time to when it wasn't injured. Her clothes followed suit.

The strange black pill worked miracles, even reversing the time. But it only worked on Avila's body. Time was normal in the surrounding area.

The blood that was used to create the formation circle also burned up as if running out of energy. As soon as the entire blood used for the formation disappeared, the black hole also disappeared, and the ground returned to its original position.

Five minutes... It barely took five minutes, and Avila was completely healed, thanks to the pill. However, despite being healed, she was still unconscious. The pill did manage to reverse the time of her body to its unwounded condition of the past, but her mind was still in the same state, unconscious.

If only she were a little faster, she could've been up even now. Unfortunately, she lost her consciousness before the healing could begin.

The damage and the poison she received from the Gauntlet of Gluttony were just so serious that even after she tried her best, she couldn't stay up. Fortunately, she had left on time and didn't suffer the backlash right there.

Her defenseless body lay in the middle of nowhere, without her Armor.

Raphael wasn't different from Avila. He also lay on the ground, unconscious. However, the core reason for him appeared to be different.

He hadn't been poisoned. He also wasn't hurt. According to Lia, he had pushed himself too hard, which placed too much burden on him. Even though that explanation sounded hard to believe, Azekiel had no choice but to believe it for now.

This was only a basic assumption, after all. As for what actually happened, only Raphael could answer when he was up.

Lia sat beside Raphael, letting his head rest on her lap as she waited for him to be up.

Not far from her, Azekiel had just received the key. A screen also appeared before him, telling him to tap to know more about the key to the Castle of Infinity.

Without hesitation, Azekiel tapped on the option. For now, he knew nothing about the Castle of Infinity or what it even was. He was sure the Castle wasn't on this floor since it wasn't on the map he memorized. Despite not being here, the Castle of Infinity appeared to be really important if it was his Reward.

[Key of Castle of Infinity: The key that can open the Castle of Infinity]

As soon as the description appeared, Azekiel almost cursed at the system. This was the description? He thought the description was going to give him some clues about the castle and what it was.

On the contrary, the description he received was so useless that for a moment, he even wondered if the system was just having fun with him? Even now, he had no idea what the Castle of Infinity was or what it was capable of. All he knew was that the key he had could open it.

Disappointed, he closed the screen and checked the other reward he had received for this quest, which was more important for him.

In his inventory, he saw the Storage Ring. He had actually received the reward he wanted! A ring that he could use to store items, mainly food.

If he had that ring before, he knew he wouldn't need to worry about food.

He brought out the ring from the Inventory and wore it in his left hand. As soon as he wore the ring, all the instructions about how to use the ring appeared before him, giving him the basics.

"If only you had done that for the ring as well." Azekiel sarcastically commented as if responding to his system.

He now understood everything about the ring, and most of it was similar to what he had read in fantasy stories back on earth. All he needed to do was focus on the ring, and he could visualize the interior of the ring and all the items that he would be keeping inside them.

He was connected to the ring already through his consciousness. He just needed to think about bringing an item out of the ring after his visualization, and that was going to happen.

The ring of storage was a very convenient item for him.

"The storage space inside the ring isn't too much, but it should be enough for my needs."

Now that he was done with the Soul Demon through the Soul Snatch, he also checked his stats to get a rough idea of where he stood. Based on what he knew, he had already left Michael's stats behind. The only question was how far ahead he was from Michael and if this was enough to catch up to Lucifer.
