Following an intense fluctuation of spatial energy, a tear appeared in the space. Right after, King Xie, the middle-aged man who taunted ifyar appeared.
"Ha, ha, Ancestor, you finally found the youngest devil's son; the one who escaped with Grace and holds the pendant of night. Show where he is! Show how he looks like! If you need my help then I'm willing to use so of my life force to help you out!" The middle-aged man, King Xie entered the room from the spatial portal and said in a commanding yet happy tone. He excitedly stared at the crystal ball that was showing the image of a towering palace.
Just a bit more ti and life force and they will be able to see Whittaker!
"There's no need for your highness to trouble yourself. Am I right, children?" The ancestor said.
"Yes, Ancestor!" The 50 experts who sat closed eyes replied and poured more life force into the crystal ball so that their target face and features could finally be revealed.
They would know how the devil's son looks like, and then Whittaker will no longer have a mont of peace in his life. He will be chased by otherwordly experts the mont he's traced.
"Gah!' Suddenly the eyes of the other 50 divination master snapped open and their eyes popped out of their sockets!
Pop! Pop! Pop! In a single mont, their eyes exploded and they beca blind. The next mont, they started to bleed from all their orifices.
The touch of death magical rune design cursive effect has arrived at the opportune ti and saved Whittaker from their hands.
Hearing the sound of eyes exploding was extrely eerie and attracted King Xie's attention. He turned around to stare at a scene right out of a horror movie. 50 peak experts of the ancient divination clans have suddenly lost their eyes and beco blind and they were bleeding from their mouth, nose, ears, and pores.
"This... what just happened!" King Xie exclaid in horror. His eyes wide opening, almost popping out of their sockets while his mouth gaped in shock as he was unable to comprehend the mystical yet deadly happenings in the surrounding.
Bam! Right then, the divination ancestor also crashed heavily on the ground.
King Xie turned around and saw the divination ancestor lying in a puddle of blood. His eyes opened wide in sadness and anger. It wasn't because these guys were drying or were already dead. It's because the image in the crystal ball has disappeared!
"I can no longer find out who the child is!" He shouted in anger.
He stepped towards the ancestor and said by lifting his face sared in blood,
"You can't die, not before telling the exact location of the boy. Continue with the divination or else I will butcher your entire clan!"
The blind ancestor pointed at the crystal ball and said between coughs, "Cough, cough! Your highness, the boy's in the spirit wor"
At the word wor, he breathed his last. The divination ancestor died.
"Spirit world, that accursed place!" The king shouted in fury. He shared a bad experience with that two-faced world. His body troubled when he rembered the ti he was defeated at the hands of a single expert.
"Fu*k that place!"
He kicked the corpses nearby him in anger, dishonoring the dead, and again exclaid in anger and dissatisfaction,
"God damn, if you weaklings wanted to die then die after showing the devil's child face, why die before it!"
After releasing his anger on the corpses, the king called for his advisor.
"Yes, your highness," A middle-aged man entered the room that reek with the sll of blood.
"Activate our sleeper cells in the spirit world, and also hire killers from the assassins guild in that world to kill talented children in the spirit world." King Xie ordered, his mind and thoughts clouded by anger.
"But we will suffer a massive loss. Do your highness have any defining features?" The middle-aged man replied.
Hearing his words, the king cald down sowhat and rationality returned to his mind clouded by anger. King Xie stared at the man with red eyes. "The boy might be wearing the pendant of night. Around the age of 12. His looks will be above subpar. His hair might be snowy-white or black. If you manage to find him then try to bring him back alive but kill him if you have to, and bring that item too if you find it. It's best to use only the experts best at killing. Hire so of the assassin guild killers and activate our best killers hidden in that world. Find that child at all cost!" He angrily shouted with clenched fists.
Even King Xie wasn't sure whether his plan would work against Grace's child after he saw the way the divination ancestor and his clan 59 experts died. He was feeling afraid and Whittaker's father's word resounded in his mind, making him more afraid and his heart trembled in fear. Now, he wanted to take care of the boy early than he had planned.
"Yes your highness," he said and went away to execute his order.
Unbeknownst to everything that is going on because of him, the snowy-haired boy slept through the night peacefully.
For the next few days, Whittaker simply ate battle cores and physically trained in the morning to increase his battle energy. He also studied in the library after exercising and increasing his battle energy. He then learned more about inscriptions from Elder Zachary in the evening and practiced ditation to increase his mana and soul force at night.
Now, Whittaker's arsenal of magical rune designs has also increased to 37 useful magical rune designs of different types.
This was the busy schedule of the young snowy-haired boy. He was so busy that he didn't even get ti to learn cooking from Nina. Currently, Sunday and Wednesday were the busiest day of his life. It's partially because of Elder Zachary's lectures.
He also hasn't partaken in the Monster tower.
It's because Elder Zachary's lectures were more valuable in his eyes. Moreover, he will only be educated by elder Zachary from Sunday to Wednesday, so he decided to enter the Monster tower on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Plus, he has used the past few days to gain knowledge about the monster tower.
"It surely isn't a simple place as I initially thought it to be but I'm confident in my abilities. In the last few days, I have grown a lot stronger!" Whittaker exclaid while looking at the status screen.

Whittaker was pleased by the increase in his strength.
"It's mostly because I could use Night's Avatar of darkness to do two or more things at a ti. Hmm, it's 6 a.m, let's fresh up and join monster tower!"
He yawned and stood up from the bed to go to the bathroom. It was still morning yet he began to prepare himself.
It's because today was Thursday, and he wanted to go to the Monster tower and start climbing it.
Reaching the 41st floor within two months was the goal he wanted to complete to impress Elder Zachary.
He felt excited at the thoughts of completing this challenge and obtaining the key to the palace treasury.
"I wonder what's stored inside of it,' he thought before using the spatial gateway to appear in the training ground.
