Chapter 911: Unseal

The old man further explained. “The Trials will start tomorrow, as I told you before. So you’re brought here for something else.”

“Something related to this Temple?” Lucifer asked calmly. Since they were at the entrance of the Temple, what else could there be?

The man nodded. “That’s right. We want you to open this Temple.”

“Why would you need me for that? Just break the lock and enter?” Lucifer gazed at the old man in confusion.

As far as he could see, there was only one lock on the doors of the Temple which shouldn’t have been hard to break for people as strong as them. In fact, he believed he also could’ve broken the lock if he wanted yesterday, but he resisted his urge since he didn’t want to break any rules.

“You think we wouldn’t have done it if we could?” The old man could only roll his eyes in response. “This lock isn’t any ordinary lock. It’s the Bloodline Seal. Only someone who has the Bloodline of the person that cast this lock can open it. Except for the ones with the Bloodline, all others are fated to fail.”

“And why do you suppose I would be able to break it?” Lucifer gazed at the man, wondering if this Temple was made by the Angels since these people thought his bloodline was going to solve it.

“We don’t know who made the Temple or who made this Bloodline Seal. This entire world was Abandoned when it was discovered by the Star Alliance a long time ago. There was nothing in this world, including no structure. All this world had was its terrain and this one Temple.”

“The Star Alliance tried everything to get inside the temple, but it’s impossible to break the walls of the temple to get inside. The only way to get inside is through the door, and even that can only be used if the lock is open.”

“Since we don’t know who made the Temple or whose blood is needed to open the seal, we haven’t been able to open it for centuries. But now you’re here, and I believe you can help us open it. Because of you, we might finally be able to get some answers,” the old man explained.

“And why do you think I’ll be able to open it?” Lucifer asked. “Since you don’t even know who made this lock, why do you look so sure that you’ll be able to open it with my help?”

The old man only smiled in response. “Because you’re the master key. Your Bloodline, as we discovered in the scan, matches all the bloodlines we have in our database to some extent. That means your Bloodline should also match the one who made this Temple, no matter who that person was.”

“That’s why we believe you can open it.”

Hearing the responses, Lucifer understood everything. He couldn’t help but curse under his breath.

‘That cunning Queen! She didn’t give me the entrance pass for this trial because she was sorry! That was an excuse for her to send me here so I could open this Temple! She… No wonder she gave me this card! It wasn’t a gift but a bait to get me here.’

Lucifer couldn’t help but gaze at the lock ahead in frustration. He was played…

‘If she thinks she can use me, she is wrong. She sent me here to act as a key. I’m sure even she didn’t believe I could be a competition. I’ll prove her wrong! As for what’s inside the Temple, I don’t know, but I’ll make sure it doesn’t benefit the Star Alliance either! If there is a treasure here, it will be mine only.’

Lucifer made a promise to himself as he agreed to try opening the lock. “I will help you. Tell me what I need to do to open the seal?”

“All we need is one blood drop of yours. Make a droplet of your blood fall on the lock. That should be enough.”

Lucifer stepped closer to the lock and bit his thumb lightly. Following a bite, his thumb started bleeding. Lucifer placed his blood on the lock before his wound could heal. He stepped back.

Everyone observed the lock with eager breaths.

The blood that landed on the lock seemed to be slowly absorbed by the lock before it disappeared entirely. The lock still didn’t open though.

The old man tilted his head as he stepped closer to the lock.

He turned back to the other man. “Why isn’t it open? Could it be that we were wrong?”

“Let’s give it some time. The blood was absorbed instead of being rejected, so something must be happening.”

After waiting for over twenty minutes, the old man grew even more disappointed. The lock still didn’t open.

He shook his head in disappointment. “It seems we truly were wrong. His blood might match every species in our database, but it looks like whoever made this Temple isn’t one of those Species. We wasted our time.”

“Send Lucifer back to his cabin.” The old man departed.

The man who brought Lucifer stayed back with him. He once again started making Lucifer’s body fly. This time, Lucifer stopped him though.

“I don’t need you to send me back. I just want to roam around the land for a little. I’ll be back by evening. You go ahead.”

“Are you sure?” The man inquired.

Lucifer nodded. “I am sure. Tomorrow the trials will begin, so today is the only free day for me, and I want to roam around freely.”

“As you wish, but don’t forget to be back on time.” The man departed, letting Lucifer stay behind.

Only Lucifer stayed before the Temple at this point. Both the men left.

Lucifer made sure that the two men were indeed gone before she stepped closer to the lock again. He once again bit his finger, but instead of one droplet of Blood, he let more blood fall on the lock.

“If my bloodline partially matches other bloodlines, that means more of my blood will be needed to be comparable to those bloodlines. Let’s see if my assumption is correct.”

Lucifer kept losing his blood, but he didn’t care. Now that he was all alone, he wanted to go inside and see what was there. Who made this Temple which even the Star Alliance couldn’t get inside? This certainly didn’t belong to the Angels, that he was sure of.

As soon as Lucifer’s fingers healed, he bit them again and followed the same process. It was only after ten minutes that something changed. He heard the clicking sound and the lock actually opened.
