When Ivus chooses the entry, the other two options shatter.

He felt his body become lilt...... Looking down, his body turned into a gray shell, tangled with the Shadow Fiend, and then reappeared.

The power from the Shadow Demon continued to flow into his body along the contract. The flow that used to be like a faucet has now become a whistling drain, and the mana pool in his body has finally been expanded to accommodate these extra dark attribute mana!

When Ivas woke up from his dream, the sun had not yet risen, and it was still pitch black outside.

The robe he wore was coated with chicken blood, and it had dried out, and there was a faint foul smell. Lily hadn't woken up yet, and was probably still choosing her own entry.

His properties panel also changes:

Demon Scholar LV10: [Demon Knowledge -2 (97%)], [Basic Ritual -2 (0%)], [Demon Pact -4 (0%)], [Shepherd (Essence) -2 (0%)]

Mana pool: 27/27 (Light), 24/24 (Dark), 47/47 (Fire)

Characteristics of the Path——

Transcendence-Shadow Incarnation (Equilibrium): You are the vessel and the incarnation. Shadows are no longer your enemies. Your "Shadow Affinity" and "Dark Container" levels are increased by one.

Transcendence-Shadow Affinity LV2: You have a natal pact with Shadow Fiend, allowing you to wield the shadow ability of the second energy level at will.

Transcendence - Dark Container LV1: When you touch Father Serpent's Feather, the maximum capacity of your mana pool (dark) is increased by 14.

- It is finished.

Ivus now has a level 15 priest and a level 10 demon scholar, and his experience is mostly useless.

In other words, he can advance two more times next month!

And this time, Ivus finally determined one thing, and that is that entries can indeed be controlled by behavior!

"However, how can I get the container entry for the three attributes of terroir and water?"

Ivas fell into deep thought.

He shook his head, deciding not to think about it later.

Ivus changed out of his clothes, and then began to clean up the traces of the ritual.

He waited for another ten minutes before Lily, who was sleeping on the sofa, suddenly let out a dream-like voice of unknown meaning, hummed, and then slowly woke up.

Ivus, who was tidying up for the ceremony, looked up to see Lily silently staring at herself with her clear gray eyes.

After this ceremony, their relationship also became much closer.

If she had been put in the first place, she would have gotten up in fear as soon as she woke up and worked for Ivus. Outside of work, she almost never chats or talks to Ewass.

She just habitually distanced herself from the master she served—a reserved and professional ethic as a valet maid. Do not express an opinion unless the host needs to.

She usually likes to be silent, not because she doesn't like to talk. In fact, she even had a long and happy conversation with Princess Isabel...... If Ivas isn't nearby.

Because Lily knows that she is humble and under the fence, in order to protect herself, she is usually estranged from others. It's not good for her to know too much. So she usually pretends not to see or hear, and it is better to let no one see her.

But now, when Lily looked at Ivus again, she felt only a sense of tranquility.

It is not a choice of silence based on the principle of "prudence in words and deeds".

And a sense of security that does not want to think about anything, is quiet and warm.

It's like when I was very young, sometimes I was held in the arms of my mother, who rarely quieted down.

That's when Lily feels that sense of serenity.

Lily's mother was not good-tempered, or rather a little nervous. For the most part, she is very irritable and unreasonable, but occasionally she calms down and becomes very gentle.

But Lily doesn't hate her. Because her mother, unlike her peers, decided to set her daughter on the same fate as herself—her mother's only wish was for Lily to study well and eventually change her fate. For this alone, she has no hatred for her mother.

Lily knew she had no way back, so she studied very hard. Until middle school, her grades were at the top.

Until Lily was thirteen years old. Because Lily was good-looking, quiet and dignified, many classmates wanted to pursue her at that time.

In fact, this is also a direction to change fate.

As long as she can find a suitable husband, she can also get rid of the shackles brought by her background.

But Lily was born in Lloyd's, was sensible early, and knew that this was not a high possibility.

It is more likely that she was toyed with and abandoned at will, delaying her youth and time in vain. Therefore, Lily did not take this kind of luck and concentrated on studying. So she rejected the pursuit of these people.

But Lily didn't know that asking for it would provoke people's interest. So the boys who pursued her began to investigate her origins, preferences, and interests...... As a result, she accidentally discovers her mother's occupation and learns that Lily is an unmarried daughter whose surname is her mother's.

The news came from nowhere, but in an instant it spread throughout the school, and Lily's suitors immediately turned away from her, and the more annoying flies came to her. Rumors spread all the time, and Lily couldn't calm down to study, so she had to go home and hide in the attic to read.

Lily's mother thinks that this will only lead to her destruction, and the family will not be able to provide a learning environment. And there was no teacher to teach her, so she found Lily's biological father...... Hopefully, the other party can provide Lily with resources worthy of her Drost family and give her a surname.

It was only then that Lily knew that she had the blood of the noble Founders family in her body.

But at that time, she didn't know why she was born. She still fantasizes that she is the crystallization of a love that has crossed taboos, and she also thinks about all kinds of love stories that overflow the heart of a girl.

This is not unfounded speculation.

Because when she first met the Minister Drost, he was very friendly.

He even had a serious long talk with Lily, asking her about her grades, preferences, relationships, and future ideals. He also explained to her his current situation with great equality and humor, the rules of the knight family, what it meant to have an illegitimate child, and the reason why he couldn't give Lily a surname, and apologized to her.

Lily accepted the result.

She learns from Chancellor Troste that if she comes from a bad background, she won't be allowed to go to university, even if she has good grades—she is the unmarried child of a prostitute, an unregistered Lloyd's blackman at birth, and the illegitimate child of a knight's family, which adds up to the equivalent of a felon's descendant.

Neither the army, nor the courts, nor the Inspectorate will recruit her. The best career she could find was as a governess.

So Lily followed the arrangement of Minister Drost and was sent to the Moriarty family, which also belonged to the Founders' family. As a personal maid, take care of their newly adopted young master, Ivus.

As the valet of the Founders' family, Lily's status is actually higher than that of most governesses - because most of the time, valets start taking care of the immediate heirs at a very young age, and there is not much difference in age. If they are of the opposite sex, they usually have also had intimate relationships and are the most intimate peers in their teenage years.

In a sense, the valet is the absolutely loyal lover, girlfriend and accomplice of these future bigwigs.

Unlike other working maids, they do not usually wear maid clothes, but old clothes that the hostess has changed into, or clothes that the man has given them. Except that in principle, gemstone jewelry cannot be worn, there is no difference in dress with the eldest lady of the royal capital.

And because they usually have to accompany their masters when they travel, they eat not as servants' meals, but as leftovers from their masters, and often eat at the same table with their masters outside of formal banquets.

They also had their own private rooms, rather than living in dormitories like other servants. A valet is not usually dismissed and usually accompanies her master until death.

And the salary income of the personal maid is second only to that of the housekeeper, and there is also a paid holiday that can be used to visit relatives every year.

Even for a girl from a civilian background, this is a good career that can be met but not sought.

Not to mention that Lily is from a humble background...... So at that time, Lily, although she felt helpless and sad that she could no longer study. But I also know that I am already at the end of the road that many people find difficult to reach after reading the book. And she was safe and respected in the Moriarty family, so she was very grateful for Drost's arrangement.

The only thing that saddened Lily was that her mother died soon after she settled in.

It wasn't until this ritual that she understood the secret behind it all.

Her mother was murdered by a hitman hired by her father.

And perhaps because her current master, Ewass, was involved in the death of the secretary, and was angered by Minister Drost; Or maybe it was because Drost had already known that Moriarty was dead and had become emboldened...... He felt offended even just because Lily went to school against his will.

He even wants to hire a hitman to assassinate Lily now!

Only then did Lily realize that Drost's arrangement was not intended to be good to her. She was also in school now, and she had not heard anything about the fact that the offspring of prostitutes could not go to school, and she had seen that there were also offspring of sinners among the seminary students.

So Minister Droist simply didn't want her to show up.

He sent Lily to the Moriarty family in the hope that he would be able to put her under house arrest. So that she never had a chance to get the surname Drost in her life.

- That kind of thing, don't do it.

Lily thought to herself.

"What really deserves to be valued is now available. My treasure, the direction of my life......"

She specially chose the "Shadow Affinity" trait this time, just so that she could better cooperate with Ivus, who holds the Shadow Fiend, in the future. Combined with the "Shadow Affinity" she gained when she first entered the Adaptation Path, she now has two levels of Shadow Affinity.

This is the layout she has made for herself in the future. Ivas will one day be out of her wheelchair, and in what capacity will she follow Ivus?

Then find a way to make yourself useful. She already knew who she was going to live for, and she didn't want to be left behind.

Thanks to the three alliance leaders who were fed by Tianzelu, and thank you to the alliance leader who fed Bobosha Chong Duck~
