Stigma collected a lot of valuable information when he was still in the family’s territory and he noticed that the ruins around the air transportation were recently opened. He sneaked into the ruins and found a lot of resources that would help Arisma recover. Stigma took away most of the valuable resources, but he was ambushed by a group of wizards that hid their faces with black masks. He was injured and returned to the family to recover. However, an exploration team with members from several major organizations found out someone entered the ruins before them. They then asked a prophet to find the one who "stole" the treasure from them. However, the prophet made a mistake and thought the target was Stigma’s sister. This was how the whole thing started.
Stigma put the half-body lizard into Della’s pouch without being noticed and the lizard helped Della recover her stamina on the way. However, it seemed like those assassins realized that Della was carrying the half-body lizard. They knew the situation about the ruin and they thought Della was the one who raided the ruins before the exploration team. The leader of the assassins quickly contacted the prophet and confirmed the target.
Stigma learned that his sister had become the scapegoat and he decided to ask his old friends for help. That was the truth behind the whole situation.
"So… you already took most of the valuable resources from the ruins?" Angele was a bit speechless.
"Well… yeah. Sorry." Stigma nodded slightly.
"That’s why your master is recovering so fast. Did you notice anything special about the ones who ambushed you?" Angele rubbed his chin.
"Of course. They were using the shadow power." Stigma took out something small from his pouch and threw it to Angele.
*PA*
Angele caught the item easily. It was a small raven statue with a black body and a pair of green eyes. It seemed like the eyes were made of emeralds.
"No, not the statue. Look at its shadow on the ground," Stigma advised.
Angele heard the word and looked down.
The raven’s shadow twisted on the ground, it looked like a living bird that was swinging its wings.
Angele looked at the statue—it was not moving at all.
The raven’s shadow on the ground was trying to leave Angele’s hand.
"The hell… Don’t tell me this is…" Angele’s expression changed.
"Yeah. This is a shadow fiend that comes from the abyss…" Stigma confirmed Angele’s assumption.
"A shadow fiend from the shadow realm…" Angele blocked the sunlight above the statue.
Suddenly, the raven’s shadow jumped out of the statue and it started moving around Angele on the ground.
*CAW*
The voice of the raven was loud and terrifying. It jumped straight into Angele’s shadow.
Angele’s expression turned serious, he knew that he could not let the raven touch his shadow.
With a flick of his finger, a ray of fire energy particles hit the raven’s shadow with precision.
*BAM*
A small hole appeared on the ground.
*Crack*
Countless tiny cracks appeared on the raven statue in Angele’s hand. Several seconds later, the statue turned into a pile of stone debris and dropped to the ground.
