"So Eternal Night Moon Silence really does resonate with Moonshadow."
Inside the carriage.
Having completed her Ascension, Cool Moon no longer needed to sleep constantly because she had been born too early.
She sat beside Ye Qiyan, happily eating the chocolate cake Lisette had just baked.
This Ascension had brought more than an increase in strength; she was also gradually becoming a true life-form.
An Artifact Spirit life-form.
That was nothing strange. This was the Wasteland, after all, so any kind of life-form could appear.
Originally, Cool Moon had possessed no senses such as taste. The only thing she could sense was the aura of her master, Ye Qiyan.
Now, she could sense everything.
"Master, you're so happy~"
Lisette walked behind him, her fair arms gently wrapping around his shoulders.
"Of course."
Ye Qiyan stretched and brought up the System Light Screen.
"Everything that needed Ascension has undergone it, and everything that needed sorting out is sorted. Now there's only... this one left."
He raised his hand, and a bloodstained Golden Apple appeared in his palm.
This was the Fruit the Dark Grand Duke had not eaten when he died.
[Darkness-tainted · Golden Apple?] [A Fruit tainted by the power of [Darkness]] [Can be hung in the crown of any fruit tree that [receives no light]] [That fruit tree will produce special darkness-type Fruit] [Message: These are your spoils]
The Dark Grand Duke had not dropped any spoils when he died.
Even that one Darkness Sword was merely a souvenir to hang on the wall.
There was only this dark Golden Apple, which that fellow had never taken a single bite of, even at the very end.
Instead, before dying, he had used the last of his strength to do something to this Fruit.
These were the spoils
