Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

Geoffrey looked up. He stepped forward without hesitation.

Now that he'd come so far, what else was there to fear?

At the end of the Boundless Shock World, the staircase stopped in front of an ordinary stone door. In contrast with the rest of the exquisite Levitation Tower, the surface of the door was rough and unpolished.

Geoffrey did not stop to think it over. He reached out and pushed the door open.

The door creaked as it swung open.

It had not been opened for many years, but the rough material was still intact.

As soon as he saw what lay behind the door, Geoffrey paused, surprised.

Through the doorway was a space as rough and craggy as the door itself.

It was as though every inch of ground had been filled in with crushed, jagged stones.

The space inside the door belonged to the fifth-grade world. The Levitation Tower had become normal at this point. However, that wasn't Geoffrey's main concern.

"Where is the Heavenly Ring Staff?" Geoffrey asked, turning to face the little girl.

The little girl stood a step behind him, making no move to pass through the door. She did not have the right to enter the top floor.

"Go in and find it yourself," she answered, still feeling a sense of dissatisfaction towards Geoffrey.

Geoffrey nodded. He stepped into the room at the top floor and looked around him.

His gaze landed on a purple crystal pillar in the center of the space. He walked towards it, examining it closely. When he got closer, he saw that there seemed to be some wooden object embedded in the pillar.

His eyes lit up as he realized what it was. "This is the Heavenly Ring Staff!"

The staff had a strange, unwieldy shape, which was why Geoffrey hadn't recognized it immediately.
