Chapter 225: Chapter225-Don’t Be Afraid—Just Bear with It for a Moment

Caelan smiled as he accepted the transfer from the Supreme Staff.

As for whether those gold coins were being paid by Evelyn or by the Supreme Staff Legion, he did not really care.

What was certain, however, was that the money was definitely not coming from the Supreme Staff itself, because it had no property of its own.

For Caelan, these 20 billion gold coins meant a great deal.

When facing powerful enemies in the future, this money would be enough to support him in learning whatever skills he needed to deal with them.

After agreeing on a time and place to depart, Caelan had originally planned to part ways for the moment and head over to the Ironclad Legion to let them know.

After all, both his grandfather and maternal grandfather cared deeply about him. It was only right to report his whereabouts.

But Evelyn said she wanted to accompany him to visit the Ironclad Legion as well.

Caelan nodded and accepted the suggestion.

The two of them then headed for the headquarters of the Ironclad Legion. Familiar with the place already, Caelan led Evelyn straight to Grandfather Caesar’s office.

And after hearing Caelan’s explanation, Caesar showed a rare, gratified smile. At the same time, he could not help looking Evelyn up and down several times, the more he looked, the more satisfied he became.

"Little Caelan, seeing that you’ve found a companion truly makes this old man happy. I hope this mission ends in perfect success for the two of you. I won’t waste breath on any more nonsense. Since Evelyn is going with you, I can rest easy."

In truth, Caesar had been deeply worried about Caelan.

What he truly valued was not Evelyn herself, because in terms of strength, she was still inferior to Caelan.

What truly reassured Caesar was the Supreme Staff.

That senior had been born in the previous era and was also the spiritual totem of the Supreme Staff Legion. If that being was going along too, then the Supreme Staff Legion would absolutely arrange for large numbers of people to accompany and protect them.

So what was there left to worry about?

Even so, Caesar still earnestly warned Caelan and passed on a great deal of useful experience.

"The laws of the Abyss are different from those of our world. Over there, they don’t value gold coins, and the currency in circulation isn’t gold coins either."

At that, Caesar took out a round box from his storage space.

"In the Abyss, they use origin stones. I saved up some of these before, so take them with you."

"Once you get to the Abyss, you must protect yourselves. And Caelan—since you’re a boy, and a bearer of the blood of the great Grey family—you must protect Evelyn, understand?"

Hearing that, Caelan immediately nodded vigorously. He would take his grandfather’s reminder seriously.

Besides, protecting girls was also part of his own sense of chivalry.

Standing at Caelan’s side, Evelyn also offered her thanks.

After that, Caesar further instructed them that if an opportunity arose, they should try to search for Fragments of History and the like. In any case, these had already been part of their plans from the start.

After saying their goodbyes, Caelan and Evelyn returned to his estate.

"Ready? If you are, then let’s go."

Evelyn nodded, then unconsciously edged a little closer to Caelan.

Even though she had great confidence in her own strength, humans instinctively felt a certain fear when facing the unknown.

So Evelyn moved closer to his side without even realizing it.

Caelan frowned slightly, then took out his [Umbra Club Invitation].

Seeing this, Evelyn also pulled out her own invitation from her storage space.

At the same time, a prompt appeared before both of them.

"Would you like to use the item [Umbra Club Invitation]?"

"Use it!"

In the next instant, the surface of the [Umbra Club Invitation] burst forth with a powerful aura of the Abyss.

For one brief moment, Caelan even thought he had already arrived within the Abyss.

But in reality, he had not yet been summoned!

Just then, high in the sky, a purple-black sun slowly rose until it hung directly above them.

"Welcome, guests from afar, to the [Umbra Club]."

"The doors of the club do not open for just anyone. You must find the entrance on your own."

"And now—welcome to the Abyss!"

In the next instant, endless purple-black light completely enveloped Caelan and Evelyn.

It was as if the two of them had been submerged in violet radiance, their very auras being influenced by the Abyss.

Evelyn’s lovely face tightened, and she unconsciously grabbed hold of Caelan’s arm.

At this moment, only Caelan at her side could give her even the slightest sense of security.

Caelan, on the other hand, looked completely calm. He even took the initiative to observe the purple sun in the sky. Through [Eye of Insight], he could clearly see that its existence was actually just a projection.

So then... was the real sun in the Abyss truly purple?

Just as he was sinking into thought, he suddenly felt Evelyn trembling slightly beside him.

Her little hand gripped his hand tightly, and her palm was even starting to sweat.

Caelan froze for a moment, then could not help offering a word of comfort.

"Evelyn, don’t be so nervous. It’s fine. We’re just crossing into another world. It’s nothing serious."

"O-Okay!"

Evelyn nodded lightly, then clenched her teeth, putting on a brave and sturdy front.

But only a few seconds later,

she could not bear it any longer. Tugging lightly at the corner of Caelan’s clothes, she spoke in a weak voice tinged with mature charm.

"C-Caelan... may I lean against your chest?"

"I know that’s a very abrupt request. If it’s not okay, then I—"

Before Evelyn could finish, Caelan directly pulled her tightly into his arms.

Though her curves bumped into him twice, the feeling was not bad at all.

"Don’t be afraid. Just bear with it for a moment. It’ll be over soon!"

...

After only a few breaths,

the scene before Caelan and Evelyn finally stabilized.

It was as though they were standing inside a bottomless pit. What passed for ground here was actually made up of masses of something like black clouds.

But those black clouds were not ordinary vapor. Instead, they were some kind of mixture filled with impurities and an aura of corruption.

Overhead, a **purple-black sun—or perhaps moon—**cast its cold light eternally.

Once Evelyn confirmed that she had indeed arrived safely in the Abyss, much of the fear on her face finally faded.

She looked around. After making sure there was no immediate danger, she murmured softly,

"So this is the Abyss... It feels pretty oppressive."
