Taking a deep breath, he gathered his courage as he decided to enter. He couldn't be scared after coming so far.
'Fear can be my greatest enemy! I can't be scared at this point! I need to know what's inside the Temple!' he thought as he took his first step forward, deciding to enter.
"Don't worry. You won't regret this decision," Sirius informed Lucifer as he stepped inside the temple.
Behind him, Lucifer also entered. The door closed after the two of them entered.
Lucifer and Sirius found themselves on the ground floor of the Temple.
Even though the Temple looked old from the outside, from the inside, it seemed completely new, as if it was made just a few months ago.
.However, there was nothing on the first floor. The first floor seemed to be completely empty. Only stairs could be seen which were going up.
He walked toward the stairs.
"Wait, where are you going?" Sirius called out, stopping Lucifer.
"To the stairs, where else? This floor is empty. We can only go up?" Lucifer responded.
"You're wrong. We won't be going upstairs," Sirius replied.
"Then where?" Lucifer asked, but it soon took a guess. "Are you saying there's another secret path here?"
"That's right. You're not a complete idiot, it seems. There is a secret path. It was also something I discovered the first time I came here," Sirius responded, smiling.
He walked over to another wall and started doing the same thing. His hand started grazing through the wall to find the switch since even he didn't know the exact place of it.
Click~
Finally, a clicking sound came as he pressed the secret switch.
The floor started shaking mildly, and soon a small rectangular opening appeared in the floor, which was two meters wide.
Lucifer approached the opening to find secret stairs there that were going down.
"That's the stairs we'll be taking. What are you waiting for? Go down," Sirius told Lucifer.
"You can go ahead. It's fine," Lucifer replied, playing it safe.
He didn't want to be the first person to go down. He wasn't sure if it was the same thing that the servant had pulled on him in the Royal Palace.
She also lured him with something and told him to go inside the room, which was only a trap. If he had asked that woman to go first, the truth would have been out.
Learning from that incident, he wasn't going to go first, instead sending Sirius.
"Don't tell me you're scared?" Sirius smirked, amused. "Fine. I'll go first."
Sirius took the lead and stepped on the stairs, going down.
After Sirius, Lucifer also stepped on the stairs and went down.
The two of them landed on the underground floor.
As soon as Lucifer got off the stairs, the opening on the roof closed, and the stairs also submerged in the ground, leaving no exit from this place.
"Don't worry; it's not a trap. The stairs will appear when it's our time to leave," Sirius told Lucifer as if again reading his mind.

"So, what is this place?" Lucifer asked, frowning. "And what's that ugly statue?"
Inside the room, Lucifer found the headless statue as well, which intrigued him. However, there was no blood formation on the ground at the moment.
Other than the statue, there was nothing in the room, not even a door.
Moreover, the room wasn't very large either. It was a square room if one was to look from the top with a length of ten meters.
"Ugly statue? What do you mean? That's not an ugly statue. That's the most beautiful thing I've seen in my life," Sirius replied.
"In that case, you certainly need to get out of the Palace more," Lucifer responded, rolling his eyes. " Because that thing is the definition of ugly. Anyway, what did you want to show me? Don't tell me it was this ugly statue?"
He stepped closer to the statue, stopping only one meter away from it.
He observed the things in the hands of the statue, but only the blood in the bowl made him disgusted. It didn't look like an ordinary temple. It looked like some devilish temple instead.
"Stop calling it ugly!" Sirius snapped in anger as Lucifer kept insulting the statue. But he didn't attack or show any killing intent.
"Fine. I won't call it ugly. Now tell me why we're here?" Lucifer asked again.
"We came here so I could tell you a story," Sirius said, smiling.
"What story?" Lucifer asked, turning around to face Sirius. As he turned, his back faced the statue.
He didn't realize that there was a movement in the statue as soon as he turned back.
The eyes on the stomach of the statue slowly opened.
"The story on how the Temple came to be like this," Sirius responded. "When you hear the story, you'll get all your answers."
"You could've for me the story back there too."
"I couldn't. It wouldn't be that impactful. The story of this temple should be told in the temple, so you not only hear it but also feel it," Sirius replied, smiling.
As Lucifer was distracted, the eyes of the statue looked at Lucifer's back.
The mouth on his stomach also opened a little as what seemed like a real tongue came out from the mouth.
The tongue kept extending slowly, reaching close to Lucifer.
"Many many years ago, a war happened in the outside world between humans and the so-called Dungeon Dwellers," Sirius said.
"That's right. I know about that," Lucifer responded.
"Exactly. The dungeon dwellers came out from the dungeons that popped up all around the world," Sirius added. "Almost all those Dungeon Dwellers fought humans and destroyed many countries in the process."
"That's right. Will you get to the point now? Or are you simply going to give me a history lesson about what I already know?" Lucifer asked, rolling his eyes.
"Keep calm. We're getting there," Sirius said, smiling.
"Dungeons appeared all around the world, but they didn't appear in the Continent of Darkness, leaving the continent safe. And soon, the War ended with the victory of the Humans."
"That's right." Lucifer nodded.
"The War ended with the death of all Dungeons Dwellers that had left the Dungeons. As for the rest of them, they were trapped in the Dungeons again," Sirius expressed.
" As long as certain conditions were met, those Dungeon Dwellers couldn't come out. Is that right too?" he asked.
Lucifer frowned, getting frustrated. It was as if the man was just wasting his time. "That's right too! Now can we please get to the point?"
