…..

In the Fifth Abyss, a shadowy figure lurked outside a crack in the gloomy sky.

“Daddy, are you home?” the shadow whispered, its voice barely audible.

“Daddy!”

The voice echoed through the Fifth Abyss, unanswered.

Only a few seasoned, powerful demon creatures recognized the voice.

It sounded like the Fifth Demon God’s insane son.

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

That Demon God’s son, besides being mentally unstable, was also notoriously unlucky.

Back when the Abyss first opened, a level 200 human had stumbled into the Fifth Abyss.

As fate would have it, he encountered the Fifth Demon God’s son.

The official human account stated that Morpheus had slain the Demon God’s son.

However, with the war between the two races raging at its peak, this minor incident had gone largely unnoticed.

After calling out a few more times, the shadow, receiving no response, muttered to itself.

“Bad guy, it seems our father is out.”

“Duh, we ran away from home. Of course, we have to come back when he’s not around!”

“Bad guy, hurry up! I haven’t been home in three hundred years. I miss my teddy bear!”

“What’s the rush? Shadow Nine taught us, ‘Return home wealthy, travel incognito.'”

“What does that even mean?”

“It means when you’re rich, you should sneak back home under the cover of darkness so no bad guys try to rob you!”

“Shadow Nine makes sense… but aren’t we the real bad guys?”

“Hee hee hee…”

“Ha ha ha…”

The air crackled with the unmistakable aura of multiple personalities.

*Whoosh*

The shadow slipped through the crack with incredible speed.

As it entered the Fifth Abyss, the sky darkened.

The Abyssal source of the Fifth Abyss was child’s play for the shadow, easily manipulated.

Seeing the darkened sky, the shadow quickly donned a cloak with the words “You can’t see me” emblazoned across it.

Traveling incognito, indeed.

“It’s dark now, let’s hurry!”

After taking a few steps, Bad Woman stopped.

“Our daddy found us!”

She wailed, “Waaah! Bad guy, our father is going to kill us! Waaah…”

“Don’t panic! Our father is busy trying to kill himself. He doesn’t have time for us!” Bad Man reassured her.

“Besides, even if he wanted to kill us, he’d go after Thor first.”

Thinking about it, Bad Man couldn’t help but sigh. “Thor is such a kind, good person.”

Bad Woman sniffled, wiping her snot on Bad Man’s sleeve. “Thor is a good person. Shadow Nine never let us come back to the Abyss.”

“Shh, keep it down! Don’t let anyone hear you!” Bad Man hissed.

“This is a business trip. We get travel expenses. If Thor finds out this is our home turf, we’ll lose our travel allowance, and he might even dock our vacation days!”

Bad Woman, remembering her lost job at the Nightmare Corps, burst into tears again.

She couldn’t hold it in anymore!

As a veteran employee of the Nightmare Corps, she hadn’t even received severance pay and was now forced to return to the Guardian Shadow as an intern…

It was too much to bear!

“Waaah! I miss Shadow Nine.”

“Don’t cry, don’t cry. Look, there’s your teddy bear!”

The shadow descended, landing before the Fifth Demon God’s Demon Emperor’s Hall.

On the human maps, this hall was marked as extremely dangerous.

Guarding the entrance was a formidable demon bear, a genuine level 989 powerhouse who had once held his own against three opponents simultaneously.

“Teddy, look who’s back!” Bad Woman boomed.

The demon bear’s fur stood on end as it trembled in fear.

Memories of being dominated by a certain lunatic flooded back.

Bad Woman looked at her long-lost teddy bear. “Have you been a good boy while I was gone?”

The demon bear nodded frantically, even rolling over to expose its belly.

This fearsome demon Lord was now as docile as a puppy.

“I brought you a present. You’ll love it!”

Bad Woman pushed forward a shopping cart, rummaging through it before pulling out a box.

The demon bear glanced at the box. Two words were clearly printed on it: Dog Food.

Expiration date: 2 years.

Production date: 196 years ago?

Bad Woman ripped open the bag, scooping out a generous portion with a large spoon.

“Good boy, Teddy. Time to eat.”

The demon bear: “…”

Oh god, please kill me now!

…

In the Ninth Abyss, at the Demon Emperor’s Hall, the moment the Fifth Demon God questioned Shadow Three, both he and Mike arrived at the same realization.

Fifth Demon God: “My son… is also in the Guardian Shadow?”

Mike: “Oh crap, Shadow Two is the Fifth Demon God’s son?!”

Mike couldn’t believe it. Shadow Two had such a powerful background!

“Fourth Bro, it’s not entirely your fault,” Shadow Three said, his voice earnest. “Shadow Nine didn’t explain much before he left for the Supreme Abyssal.”

Shadow Two’s true identity was an open secret among the top three Guardian Shadows.

However, they hadn’t given it much thought.

If Shadow Three could be a part of the Guardian Shadow, what was there to fear from Shadow Two?

Shadow Two was a Demon God’s son. Shadow Three was probably a Demon God himself.

Mike rolled his eyes.

“You guys have some seriously impressive backgrounds.”

He couldn’t help but wonder about Shadow One’s true identity and what ‘surprises’ it might hold.

Knowing Shadow Two, even if he was back in his “hometown,” he would prioritize his mission.

When it came to dedication, Shadow Two was unmatched.

After all, he was a man who lived paycheck to paycheck.

Wait… hometown?

Mike’s eyes widened. He grabbed a pen and paper, scribbling furiously.

“Note: Cancel Shadow Two’s travel allowance for this mission. Furthermore…”

The Fifth Demon God glanced at him, confused. “Thor, what are you doing?”

“He’s docking your son’s pay,” Shadow Three explained helpfully.
