Levi unleashed the devastating Emmon’s Eternal Blazing Sun and Gulveig’s Frost Nova, confirming his mastery of seven Legendary spells with power rivaling or surpassing their originators. Summoned by the Netherworld Ancestor, he received the Blood Umbilical Cord to track and eliminate the traitorous Blood River Will, learning its corrupted origins tied to Mother Crimson. They coordinated on Nora's impending war against the Nightmare, with the Underworld pledging indirect support.

...

Sorren Continent.

Clad in a pristine white wizard robe, Levi positioned himself against the breeze.

Surrounding him stood the Black Abyss Sovereign along with fellow legendary wizards.

"At last, the Blood River reveals its authentic form."

"Indeed, from the dawn of wizard civilization, the Blood Clan has stirred endless hassle. Not a grave threat, yet perpetually irritating."

A fissure formed at Levi’s forehead, unveiling his Deep Red Eyes. Their multifaceted stare locked onto the Blood Umbilical Cord, which ignited gradually, erupting into scarlet blaze piercing the heavens and casting an illusory vision.

Next to him, the Worm Lord’s eyelids fluttered uncontrollably.

"That’s precisely how the Grand Council Chairman discovered me in the past, right?"

From this moment, I’ll never discard any item I possess.

A crimson realm floated amid the void of space. Emptiness stretched everywhere, lacking any recognizable landmarks. The legendary wizards exchanged glances, helpless to determine its position.

At the round table.

Hands clasped behind its back, the Heavenly Will gazed upon the star map sketched by the ancient tower.

This was the Supreme Council’s All-Knowing and All-Seeing, whose solitary journeys surpassed the collective travels of every legendary wizard, hence its posting there.

It relentlessly dredged up self-sealed memories stacked like towering peaks. Should these flood an average legendary wizard’s mind—

Their skull would burst apart.

Moments passed relentlessly, one by one.

Three days passed, and Heavenly Will’s face brightened.

"I’ve pinpointed it now. Not within the typical Land of Darkness, but a rift nearby—one linking to the [Sea of No Stars]."

Dark Rifts emerge from spatial distortions due to clashes of mighty entities or plane detonations. Certain rifts harbor crumpled star realms. Though part of the Dark Universe, standard techniques fail to locate them.

"Transmit the rift’s coordinates to me."

"Certainly, though it lies extremely distant."

"No issue. With the ancient tower, I’ll execute a swift space jump and exploit hidden dimensions for shortcuts. A couple of you join me."

Levi stowed the Blood Umbilical Cord, tilting his head skyward.

Heavenly Will declared:

"Allow me to accompany you. I know the path best."

Lord of Northern Abyss lifted his hand with a chuckle:

"Council President, if my modest strength doesn’t bother you, let me tag along to witness it firsthand. Since attaining legendary status, I’ve craved a battle against a peer."

Levi burst into booming laughter.

"Very well, you two trail me. We’ll return in under a year."

Turning to Emmon, he added:

"Apologies for the imposition."

Emmon replied:

"No trouble at all—hurry back soon. The Blood River Will amounts to mere farce, destined for defeat. It mustn’t hinder our true priorities."

The Ancient Tower Scepter drifted into Levi’s grasp.

With one notion, he linked to the Dark Ancient Tower, billions of miles distant.

"Teleport!"

...

Dark Ancient Tower.

Tenth floor.

Levi and his companions materialized instantly.

Lucy approached the Nautical Roulette.

"Now that I think about it, I’ve yet to test the Nautical Roulette. Rumor has it Gargamel snagged the supreme treasure [Meteor Wand] on his hundredth turn. I’m eager to give it a go."

Post-legendary breakthrough, Lucy appeared noticeably more spirited.

Opting against bulk draws, she spun once at a time.

"Congratulations, ten billion Aether Stones."

"Congratulations, level 9 Iris."

"Congratulations, a Nine-level Treasure."

"Congratulations, ten billion Aether Stones."

"Congratulations, Primordial Relic [Flame Soul Fire Eyes]."

The golden legendary announcement resounded across the tenth floor.

Levi and Heavenly Will hurried over, utterly stunned.

Levi mused inwardly: "Could this be the legend of the single-pull miracle?"

Heavenly Will questioned dubiously:

"Miss, that was truly your debut spin?"

Levi shrugged in resignation:

"It genuinely was her initial try. This stands as the Roulette’s finest reward to date. Astonishing."

Heavenly Will complained:

"Alas, luck utterly evades me. Sixty spins yielded only bare minimums, nearly draining my reserves dry."

Exaggeration aside; as the Barbarian Ancestor, its wealth ran deep.

Evidently, the Roulette’s rates were dismal.

Levi reassured:

"Hahaha, no worries—you’re aiding civilization’s progress. Teleporting a level 9 expert demands one Level 9 Crystal from the ancient tower, ten for a Level 10 powerhouse... Sauron spared no effort."

"Ah, that explains the power source for those vast teleports."

Heavenly Will admired Sauron’s shrewdness.

Lucy pivoted,

cradling a blazing eye in her palms as she offered it to Levi.

"Here, for you."

"My thanks, miss. What do you seek in exchange?"

Levi skipped any pretense of humility; he'd already listed this treasure among his must-haves.

All those present were well aware of his urgent need for it.

Lucy offered a subtle smile, lifting five delicate pale fingers.

"Five Level 10 Crystals? No problem."

Levi had already gathered a stockpile of crystals; he'd delved deep into their study as well.

Besides Weapon Refinement and Pharmacy, they held no further value for him.

Lucy shook her head with a grin:

"Five Level 9 Crystals."

"Huh? That’s not fair—a five hundred wouldn’t get you this."

Levi instinctively blurted it out.

Lucy responded:

"It’s totally fair. I got it with five Level 9 Crystals. To me, that’s what this Primordial Relic is worth—actually, it’s useless to me."

Levi and Heavenly Will stood utterly speechless.

Well, that...sort of made sense.

No, it was complete nonsense.

This chance was likely Lucy's sole opportunity, exhausting a lifetime's worth of fortune for such a fleeting prize.

Levi pressed on:

"Let’s do Level 10 Crystals, I’m the Grand Council Chairman, you have to listen to me."

Heavenly Will observed their playful argument, chuckling silently within.

Lucy replied with a smile:

"Fine, I’ll do as you say."

With wisdom from three lifetimes, she had long ceased to value material possessions.

An item she couldn't utilize herself made perfect sense to gift to the Grand Council Chairman.
