Against the Dragon

'I can extract this item?' Vale thought, but he ignored the message for now, as the orb wasn't his item yet.

On the other hand, the statue or the Sentinel of Shadows, seemed to be very surprised to see how Vale quickly passed the test.

"Mhmm… I underestimated your talent. You have demonstrated an incredible affinity to the Element of Shadow, young practitioner. You can have the orb as part of the reward."

"I passed the test?"

"Yes… You passed the test, and I can guide you to the path leading to the 10th floor… However, do you wish to become my disciple and inherit my legacy?" The Sentinel asked.

"Before you answer, I must tell you that being my disciple or inheriting my legacy is not included in the rewards set by the Tower Master. This is my own desire to find a suitable disciple to continue the legacy of shadows."

Vale was hesitant since he wasn't sure if it was beneficial.
