This is part of the training. When Wayne collapses and gives up, the training will be over, and the Goddess will restore his reputation. It’s hard for you too! Baiya took a deep breath, smoothed her hair, and said disdainfully: "Spare me your nauseating rhetoric. No woman would be fooled by sweet talk. Instead of saying this to me, why don’t you listen to Kaya’s opinions? Go find an old, ugly, crazy, and blind stupid woman; you’ll have better chances of success." "I like to hear it, let’s have more." Wayne smiled with confidence and declared, "I don’t believe what you say. I have always thought that as long as I bring flowers with sincerity, the elegant lady I admire would certainly smile at me. Her beauty is more dazzling than the flowers in my hand; I won’t allow you to slander her beauty and wisdom." It’s too difficult for you, harder than it is for Kaya and me. Baiya gave Wayne a sympathetic glance and loudly mocked, "Give it a rest, flowers? How could such a shallow woman exist? I dare you to try it, bring the flowers here, and see if I wouldn’t throw them on the ground and stomp on them hard." After a moment of pondering, he didn’t take out the Dark Rose, deciding it was about enough. Otherwise, by this time next year, the grass on Baiya’s grave would be three meters tall. "What, not daring? I told you, no woman will like you, a person of such low moral quality." Baiya looked at Wayne sideways, extremely serious: "No, absolutely none, unless the other party isn’t a woman!" "Alright, that’s enough." Wayne raised his hand and struck Baiya on the shoulder, helping him land on the ground, creating a big pit. Coincidentally, it was the same pit Kaya was in. The two Subsidiary Gods looked at each other, wide-eyed, as Wayne floated up to pluck the stars, scrambling to get up and stop him. Their limbs were weak, their bodies powerless, as if the authority of the gods had left them, suffering countless curses, they couldn’t even lift a finger, let alone get up. "What did that guy do to us? I feel like my body has betrayed me, not obeying at all." "It can only be said, the Devourer will become the strongest of the Subsidiary Gods..." The two beauties exchanged a glance, both seeing joy in the other’s eyes; so powerful, the Goddess can play for a long time. In the high sky, Wayne picked the brightest star and descended to the pit below. As the light dissipated, in Wayne’s hand was a neatly folded square of black velvet. He weighed it in his palm and gulped quietly. At that moment, the pressure on Baiya and Kaya’s bodies eased. They floated to Wayne’s front, congratulating him on passing the trial, offsetting his moral decline with his sheer strength, allowing him to take the token to see the Goddess. Wayne ignored the two, carefully opening the square velvet. As the ring cushion unfurled, it revealed a somber and dignified black ring. The ring was crafted from a deep, unidentified black material, its unique sheen seemingly absorbing the essence of the night sky, emitting a pure and resolute light, eternal and resplendent, never wilting. The ring’s overall design was simple and exquisite, with smooth lines and a band that felt sleek and textured. Under the unique luster, the ring was endowed with a transcendental unique quality. Baiya and Kaya’s gaze was immediately drawn to it. "What a beautiful ring, is it the Ring of Power, representing the ’Devourer’s’ authority?" "Strange, it seems like it’s for women..." "Who cares if it’s for men or women, Wayne, try it on! If it doesn’t fit you, give it to me, I really like it." As they spoke, they realized the ring had another mystery. The Dark Ring had no embedded diamonds or finely carved patterns, only a circle of simple text engraved inside. "Beloved, Idinis, Vow..." Baiya read the text above one by one, paused, shook her head desperately, widened her eyes, and read it again: "Beloved! Idinis! Vow!" A chill swept through her body, her teeth chattering, sweat soaking her clothes instantly. She shook her head desperately, saying painfully, "Something’s wrong, Kaya, I’m cursed, I’ve lost the most basic reading ability, please help me see what the ring says." Kaya couldn’t answer; she had lost even more, not just the basic ability to read, but also her imagination and mobility. The two Subsidiary Gods stood like wooden stumps, colorful lights flashing before their eyes, and their thoughts became immersed, instantly returning to a carefree childhood. The long life replayed in that moment, fast-forwarding through each brilliant scene before their eyes. Thıs text ıs hosted at 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝘯𝘦𝘵 Vizi walked over from the side, looking at the ring in Wayne’s hand, feeling extremely envious inside. She didn’t show it, expressionless, she said: "Congratulations, adventurer Wayne, you’ve defeated two Subsidiary Gods, found the lost relic of the Goddess. Next, you just need to defeat the two Subsidiary Gods hiding in the shadows, and place the relic for the Goddess. You will then awaken the sleeping Goddess, saving the entire Dark Divine Kingdom." Wayne took a sharp breath, after thinking it over, decided to comment: "Vizi, what do you mean by the two Subsidiary Gods in the shadows, have these two been fired?" Vizi shook her head; such a complex and serious question was too demanding for the Dark Knight. "Alright then, since we’re already here, moving forward will reveal the mystery." Wayne neatly folded the black velvet, about to wave his hand to send the ring into his Personal Space, then thought again, tucked it into his chest, placing it near his heart. "I never noticed before, do you want a similar ring..."
