A pleasant day

Evan returned to his mother's palace in evening and he found her sitting there absent-minded while looking at the distant horizon.

If it was before,then Evan could not have noticed it. But now he had his devil soul and his perception power many times stronger than before.

After some time, Olivia returned to her sense and smiled sweetly after she found him in her room. She quickly held Evan in her embrace and asked, "Child, Are you ok?"

Evan felt sweet in his heart. There was no one in this world who could love him so deeply like his mother. "Mother, I am fine. Shall we go for dinner?", he looked towards Olivia.

He accompanied his mother for the dinner and went to bed after finishing his dinner. Olivia left after making sure that Evan was asleep.

After sometime Evan woke up. He was just pretending to be asleep before. He could see that her mother was feeling lonely. He thought to himself,

"I will take care of her. Probably she was lacking some friends and fun activities."

He again muttered, "Anyone who sit in a single room all day around, will feel bored and she is no exception. Probably removing that seal in her would change her somehow and she will be cheerful again after gaining the ability to cultivate."

"Ok then, it is time to try out the Devil codex",Evan murmured and summon the devil codex which resides within his soul.

A blood red coloured Jade appeared in his hand. Looking at the Jade, Evan's eyes moistened. He softly murmured Grandpa.

Devil codex was the ultimate treasure of Eternal moon kingdom. Actually it was the family heirloom of the 'Hendrickson family'.

Evan had listened about it from his grandfather. But their kingdom perished and most sacred item of his 'Hendrickson family' got into his hand.

Evan had learned before how to activate this jade from his grandfather. He sensed the devil codex with his devil soul and his conciousness pulled away by the Jade.

He entered a blood red world. He looked at his surrounding and saw a huge door infront of him amidst the sea of blood. His jaw dropped seeing how huge it was.

He could sense a summoning from the huge door. He walked towards the door. At first, the door seemed to be at a hand's distance but after walking forward , he found that door was actually quite some distance away.

He walked towards it confidently. After sometime suddenly a huge fiend appeared by his side and it attacked with it's blood colured hand .Evan did not even frown and walked towards it.

As he got near ,that fiend disappeared. This type of event occured frequently as he proceeded towards the huge gate. There was various illusions but Evan walked forward courageously. After some time, he reached at the bottom of the gate. He saw various magical patterns inscribed on the body of the gate.

After seeing the patterns and symbols, he guessed the magic symbols most be from fiendgod and archdevil era.

He murmured, "As expected from supreme treasure of our Hendrickson clan. How mysterious!"

He put his hands infront of his chest and bowed slightly. He heard an ancient voice from the door, "Only true devils of the Hendrickson clan can enter this place. Keep your hand on top of the door and let the door inspect your bloodline, devil soul and your heart. If you can pass this exam, the door will be opened for you. Every person may only get a single chance in his entire life."

Evan placed his hand on the ancient door and closed his eyes. He could feel a strange light inspecting him thoroughly.

He did not resist the light but guide it all over his body. After some time, the strange light faded away.

He listened the ancient voice again.

"Congratulations, you can enter inside now. You are the ninth person to inherit the devil codex."

Evan looked at the gate, flabbergasted. After all there were countless generations in Hendrickson family. But only nine people could inherit the devil codex.

Probably, it had some special requirements for giving inheritance."

Evan was feeling proud of himself and murmured, "This incident should have made Grandpa more happy than before."

"Do you want to go inside the door?" the ancient voice of door asked. Evan replied 'yes' with a nod.
