"Thank you so much for selling the Ice Mountain, I really do," Ronald said, the smile and look of relief on his face striking Cain as very strange.


    "Gosh, I have never seen you like this before. You really like the kid huh?" Cain said, that even with these words, he showed his grumpiness, but he was pleased that Ronald had turned into a more lively person.


    He had a strange feeling.


    "James is really special, I''m not sure what kind of person he is, after all, I don''t know him incredibly well, but he deserves the necessary respect and a lot of love," Ronald replied, that even these words increased Cain''s respect for James.


    If Ronald praised someone so much, that person must have had a very high potential.


    "The last person you praised so much was Odysseus himself, wasn''t it? Although it is unclear where he is," Cain questioned.


    "Yes...That Odysseus, indeed, the sorrows and evils and foolishness of the gods and the arrogance of Odysseus, even if he deserved to be cursed, were too much...I don''t even know where he is. At least his wife Penelope is protected by Nyx, so that''s a plus." Ronald replied, his sadness evident on his face.


    "You''re right...the gods were young and greedy Ronald, especially Zeus himself, their greed at the time made Odysseus'' life hell, though that''s not something we can talk about, except to say that the mighty Chaos will allow us to see him again," Cain muttered as he stood up and took out a scroll from his inventory.


    Handing the scroll to Ronald, Cain said, "The deed to the mountain now belongs to James, the deal will be done, everyone knows where I am, so I believe I will get my gold in a short time, Ronald." and then a gigantic gate opened behind him, and Cain, who passed through the gate, disappeared with the pessimism he had come. sea??h thё n??el Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.


    Ronald sat back in his seat after putting the scroll into his inventory and then took a sip of his tea and closed his eyes to wait for James to return.


    James had his hands full, he had somehow made it to the 19th floor, he had encountered strange sights and his body had indeed developed a good amount.


    "Is that what this floor wants me to do? To choose a path? Are we sure we''re not on the first floor?" James muttered, clearly seeing the three paths in front of him.


    [The three paths you will choose will be very useful to you no matter what you choose, but be careful because the dangers here are more than you think, I assure you].


    James shook his head as he read the other message from Nyx and stood where he was.


    He hadn''t earned an achievement in a long time, or rather an achievement that allowed him to choose a card, but he was still happy to find a place that reminded him of those times.


    The reason for this thought and feeling was the three paths he saw in front of him. These three paths glowed with green, red and black colours respectively, and James of course understood what was going on.


    The difficulties seemed to be divided into thirds, and Nyx had warned him in detail that all three paths were very difficult, but if the colours between the difficulties were distinct, it meant that even the difficulties were increasing in degrees.


    Green had to be the easiest of the incredibly difficult paths, red had to be the medium-difficulty path, and black had to be the most difficult of the paths.


    This meant that the black path was the most difficult of the difficulties, but it was also the one that would bring the most reward, or the one that would develop James the best.


    James took a deep breath and then stepped out onto the glowing black path. He started walking, and as soon as he entered the path, everything went silent. The stars in the sky were clearly visible.


    Indeed, it was understandable that this place was called the Sea of Stars. The image in the sky, the stars, planets and even galaxies were visible, and all this image was reflected in the puddles in the path and even strangely in the tree leaves.


    James did not know anyone who would not admire this view.


    He took his steps calmly on the path and wondered how it was that no sound could rise to the sky. Except for the sound of his own footsteps, no sound was coming out, not even the sound of breathing, it was a very strange phenomenon.


    His footprints were being erased with each new one and each step was getting heavier and heavier.


    As James struggled with this sensation, he suddenly realised that there was something following him somewhere he couldn''t quite understand, it was an incredibly frightening sensation, the fact that he didn''t know what this person or thing was and the feeling of heaviness in his body and especially in his feet could lead him to death.


    In short, his guard was at a very low level.


    "Hello?" James said he had no intention of letting his guard down, even if he was a little relieved that the thing looking at him was not attacking him.


    While he was carefully examining the surroundings, he started to take his steps again. It was as if he was in a swamp, after each movement it was getting more and more difficult to move.


    He took a deep breath and then activated his dark step ability, his steps became much lighter and he realised that he could walk comfortably for at least a few seconds.


    James realised that a great power, a great authority was really watching him, but he could not really understand what was going on. Still, he needed to move and go further.


    However, an incredibly thick and headache-inducing voice rose from the wooded area in front of him:


    "NYX?"
