Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

Geoffrey leaned against the wall and stared blankly at the "chimney" in the distance.

The incredible and fascinating adventure was over. Perhaps now he would have to face the God of Death.

He wasn't prepared for that...

His mother had told him all sorts of legends of his father since he was a child;

he had saved the Cloud Hall, the Central Region, the great world and the universe...

His father had always been quite fortunate. It all seemed effortless for him, as if all these feats were accomplished with ease.

Although Letitia had told him of times his father had been trapped in danger and how he had been on the verge of death on countless occasions, what he heard was a stark contrast to what he had experienced himself.

How could he overcome a dead end that no one else had managed to?

His father must have been faced with similar predicaments in his time. What would he have done? What was he thinking in these situations?

It was getting dark.

The golden ring atop the Deep Space seemed to be covered with a layer of scales, gradually turning from golden to a deep black. As night fell, the slightly bright light shone on the chimney. From afar, it appeared almost as a giant beast, ready to devour the people.
