Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After receiving the order, Landel bypassed the human defense line by traveling over the sea to the East of Mehionnes.

After moving Northwest from there, he arrived at the eastern coastline of Tumala.

After arriving here, Landel clearly felt the dark and deep oppression in the city of Tumala.

So he did not dare to continue flying around Tumala. Instead, he walked into the city of Tumala.

He walked along the coastline to the west. On the way, he passed by several mountains. From the bottom of the mountains, Landel could feel that there were still humans living in the mountains.

He smiled wickedly at the mountains in front of him.

He did not take the next step. Instead, he restrained his bloodthirsty desire and left.

Ever since the advancement ceremony at Mehionnes, he had been craving blood.

However, Landel did not drink or kill on purpose. Instead, he relied entirely on his willpower to resist the bloodthirsty impulse.

After leaving the mountains, he walked westward for about two days.

He saw countless villages that had turned into ashes on the road, and there were still some corpses that had not rotted.

“The entire Tumala!”

“I didn’t expect that the entire Tumala to fall within a month after Lord Hall left!”

“In the end, humans still paid the price for their evil!”

“But this payback has only just begun!”

After walking for half a day to the west, Landel soon saw Tumala City.

The city was originally prosperous and beautiful, but its city walls were now covered with corpses. These people had all hanged themselves from the city wall.

The surrounding of the city was also surrounded by all kinds of undead creatures.

They glanced at Landel and found that he also had a dark aura, so they turned around and continued to patrol.

Landel used his identity as a dark knight to quickly arrive in Tumala.

After arriving here, he found a problem. These undead creatures from the Dark Eternal Domain actually had their own lives.

These undead creatures were completely different from Lord Hall.

All the undead had their own consciousness and will. They didn’t rely on contracts and the undead lords here to live.

Just like human society, every undead creature had its own things to do. They also drank and gambled.

So the dark creatures here knew a lot more than just fighting and dying.

After arriving in the city, he walked into a tavern.

Seeing this stranger, the dark creatures in the tavern all turned to look at him.

Then, they turned their heads away in boredom, because these dark creatures found that they really could not be compared to the Dark Knight in front of them.

Landel found a quiet corner and sat down. He did not order anything. He just sat there quietly and watched what the dark creatures were doing.

These people used dark minerals and dark attribute magic stones as currency.

They could buy some human blood to make blood wine, and they could also find some dark or undead creatures here that looked okay to have some undead intercourse.

Landel did not know how it worked because he still had a humanoid body.

And all his organs were still functioning normally.

He could still eat and drink and do whatever a human could do.

After working for more than an hour, he had thoroughly understood the operation of the bar and heard a lot of information about the Dark Eternal Domain from the customers.

So he stood up, went to the bar counter, and ordered a glass of wine mixed with fresh blood.

Throwing down a small piece of dark attribute magic stone, the strange-looking bartender at the bar counter quickly put the magic stone into the money box.

Then he began to chat with Landel. “Sir, I’ve been here for a long time, and you look very unfamiliar!”

“Are you the Dark Hero who had just come from the Dark Eternal Domain?”

Hearing this, Landel laughed. So Dark Knights were known as Dark Heroes in the Dark Eternal Domain?!

“Hahaha! Indeed!”

Hearing Landel’s hearty laughter, the bartender brought out an even stronger glass of blood wine from the counter.

“This one is for you. Congratulations to the Dark Hero for his victory!”

Landel finished the wine in one gulp, stood up, and left the tavern.

After leaving the door, Landel, who had just drunk blood after such a long time, was unusually excited. After the blood entered his body, all the organs in his body seemed to be reborn.

“So this is the delicious taste of blood!” After saying that, he could not help but lick his lips. He wanted more.

After leaving the tavern, he walked around the streets of Tumala City. The original streets did not change much.

The only thing that changed was that they were more gloomy and shabby than before. However, Landel liked the feeling in the city now.

After walking around for a few rounds, he did not obtain any information. He came to the Castellan’s mansion in the city.

This was an extremely large castle. The original color of the walls seemed to have been specially treated, and the walls were already covered in a layer of red.

Through his sensitive sense of smell, Landel discovered that this was human blood, and not burning fuel.

‘How extravagant!’

Just as he walked to the entrance of the Castellan’s residence, a Dark Knight dressed in the same clothes as he appeared in front of him and stopped.

“Yo! Where have you come from!”

“Do you want to have an exciting duel with me?”

Hearing this, Landel, who was about to leave, stopped and turned around to look at him.

“I’m Landel. May I know if there are rewards for dueling with you?”

Hearing this, he laughed loudly. “Hahaha!”

“What an interesting Dark Hero. You’re not from the Dark Eternal Domain!”

Hearing this, Landel was stunned. He did not expect to be exposed so easily.

Just as he was about to escape, the other party continued, “We’re all Dark Knights. It doesn’t matter where you’re from!”

“I take back what I said about the duel just now. Why don’t you just have a drink with me?”

At this moment, even though Landel’s heart refused, he was afraid of revealing his identity, so he could only follow behind the other knight and return to the small tavern.

In a private room, the other party ordered a table full of blood wine.

“My name is Rowan. It’s my honor to meet you, a fellow Dark Knight!”

“I know that you want to know why I can tell at a glance that you’re not from the Dark Eternal Domain.”

“But I can’t let you know because this is the rule of the Dark Eternal Domain.”

“What I can tell you is that the strength of dark creatures is respected, so you don’t have to worry about being ostracized in this city!”

After hearing Rowan’s words, Landel raised the wine glass in his hand and clinked glasses with him.

The two of them had met by accident and chatted for a long time before parting reluctantly.

They had similar life experiences, so it was easy for them to understand and make friends with each other.

With Rowan’s help, Landel gained access to a lot of information..
