SSS Awakening: Rebirth of the Strongest Vampire God novel Chapter 615

Chapter 615: Got company

While the egg was one reason, there were also other important factors like the fact that his current shadow affinity has skyrocketed, especially after he had fought with so many of the Umbra’s hand acolytes.

There was a high chance that he might be able to find more shadow affinity monsters, which would only help him further.

Besides, he already had a part of the legacy, Umbra’s lesser shadow magic. Combined with everything else, he would only be losing out if he did not enter the legacy at this point. Whether or not the First was laying some sort of trap inside for him, this had been his plan all along.

Now it was time for him to finally enter the legacy and see what the whole deal was about. There was no way he was going to back away from this. This wasn’t some optional detour. This was the doorway he had been aiming for since the moment he first learned about Umbra’s Hand.

Trap or no trap. Preparation or ambush. It didn’t matter.

Damon took one last breath, feeling the egg vibrate against his chest, cracks spreading faster as the glowing fissures bled abyssal light into the air. The portal rippled like an open throat waiting to swallow him whole. He stepped forward.

A faint smirk tugged at his lips. "Let’s see what your legacy really is about."

And without another word, Damon walked straight into the swirling black portal.

The Third let out a strangled gasp. "Master! Wait! WAIT!"

Too late.

The shadows swallowed Damon whole.

Damon did not enter the legacy land completely clueless. He had already asked Third a bit about the world inside, so he was not entirely blindsided. But the world was meant to blind everyone who entered.

A vast expanse unfolded before him, a world of darkness.

Normal people wouldn’t even be able to see in this world, and this was the first test for the assassins. If one did not have enough levels in the dark vision skill, they might as well walk right back out, as they would have already failed the trial.

However, Damon had no issues in this department. His crimson eyes glowed faintly in the dark, perfectly observing everything around him. For all intents and purposes, he was standing in what appeared to be a perfectly normal world.

He found himself standing in the middle of long, wavy grass. Each blade should have been green, but here they swayed as ripples of shadow, black silhouettes outlined only by the faintest hints of silver.

Mountains rose in the distance, jagged spires cutting into the sky like torn paper edges. A stream flowed nearby, making the soft sound of water... except the water was pitch black, like liquefied night sliding over smooth stone.

There was nothing overtly hostile at first glance. No monstrous aura. No aggressive shadow beasts leaping out to eat him alive. No immediate trial marker screaming danger.

If anything, it looked peaceful.

Damon inhaled once, letting his senses stretch outward. The entire realm pulsed with shadow energy, dense and ancient. His body reacted instantly, his shadow affinity surged, responding to the environment like a plant gulping sunlight after a drought.

The egg on his chest vibrated again. A sharp crack split its shell, spreading wider across the surface. Damon felt the abyssal heat leak out, slow but steady.
