Roselle's Warning and Rewards

After nearly an hour of work, Abner finally deciphered the secret hidden in the mural. He drew on his extensive knowledge of mysticism, along with the Pure White Eye's formidable powers of calculation and analysis, to uncover the real reason the Augustus Family had never buried the two knights.

It turned out that after the Black Emperor fell, the "space" containing Solomon's "treasure" had been "exiled" from this world. It drifted through the infinitely distant starry sky, impossible to reach...

That was why even the Augustus Family, an Angel Clan, had been helpless after learning of the treasure. They could only train particular "knights" to go through the required steps and complete the ritual.

To bring the "space" back, the two ceremonial greatswords forged by the Sanguine Duke each had to be stained with the blood and spirit of a demigod descendant of the Solomon Family—one from the Justiciar Pathway and one from the Black Emperor Pathway. Only then could a specific ritual locate and summon back the "treasure."

More importantly, even if the ritual was completed, it would only "summon" and "locate" the space. It would take an extraordinarily long time for that "space" to approach this world again...
