---

The moment he stepped into the room, lanterns lit up to illuminate the chamber. This chamber was an exact replica of the previous throne room except for the fact that it was more bright and lavish.

The golden walls were painted with liquid silver which complemented the golden curtains that hugged the walls.

The floor was studded with glittering gems and diamonds which gave off a feeling as if they were mimicking the stars.

Unlike the other rooms, there weren't any pillars in this room.

As Adam walked into the room slowly, he saw a single throne placed inside the room and an ominous diety was currently occupying it.

He was the god of darkness, Erebus.

The entire room was filled with armors, some were golden, some were black, some were short, some were high.

Although they were just armors, Adam felt as if they were keeping an eye on him.

There were also staff, spears, bows, etc. But one thing caught his eyes, far more corners there was a spear.

It was painted in red and white, it had a death presence around it, Adam has strangely felt a connection to it.

He cautiously walked towards the throne, where the dark diety was sitting while he was looking at adam smugly.

The way he looked at him made him feel...like an ant.

He felt this many more times in his previous life, but no to this extent, his self-esteem seemed to crumble down.

'I have to keep my cool, he secretly did is calming exercise breath in and out'

Besides, the dark deity there was the woman who stared at him smilingly, but he knew behind this is smiling face a beast is residing.

The woman wore a garment that hung freely over her shoulders.

Adam was quite uncomfortable since the dress had a low neckline that nearly entirely exposed her large and beautiful chest.

The woman twisted a strand of her hair as she stared at the man in front of her, but not at him, but at his crotch "You're so... endowed, But don't you think it's impolite and insulting to demonstrate your manhood in front of my master?"

"Can you tell me who you are?" The temptation was burning Adam's body, but he didn't let it cloud his judgment. "And if you're one among them-"

"You're too arrogant. being discourteous in front of my lord." When the woman snapped her fingers, he felt a tremendous amount of power on his shoulders, pushing him to bow down to them.

When Adam was revived, he swore to himself that he would not bow down his head to anybody. So, he didn't let things go, as they wanted.

"You're defying my authority, huh? It's no surprise that you've arrived here."

Adam was fighting the force with all his strength, but the power became too strong for him to manage, the instant the lady snapped her fingers again.

He wasn't a brainless fool who could only resist with sheer strength, therefore he increased his STR by 30 points.

Even though it seemed, he can resist at first, he can't maintain the position much longer.

In the end, he had no choice but to give in.

'They really made the characters so, real and even this pain and pressure is also very realistic' Adam thought as he continued to kneel down.

He didn't have any other option.

"That's much better... " The woman's solemn voice echoed throughout the room, " I wouldn't intend to play with your body... but if you do anything inappropriate next time, I would completely erase your existence... "

'Though it was her fault, dressing like that, who wouldn't be tempted'

of course, he didn't say it out loud, what do you think will happen to him if Adam said it out loudly.

She continued after glancing at the throne once again, "Let me make it clear again. I'm the one who would be asking you the questions, not the other way around."

"And, as my master had stated, you're a wizard, therefore your first option is a riddle, and your second option is Labyrinth."

"Whatever you chose, human,"

'I enjoy both riddles and mazes, but I don't want to perform any Labyrinth or nonsense in this scenario.'

"Riddle"

"Hum...Then we'll move on."

"The guidelines are as follows: between you and me, there are about 10 or so steps. I'll give you 10 puzzles to solve, and for each one you answer right, you'll get a prize."

"You'll take a step and if you're able to reach me... then you'll gain your freedom as well as the honor to become my master's apostle. But remember... if you even answer one riddle incorrectly... you'll die in an instant. All clear?"

After hearing the words, Adam once again tried to get up but then the woman snapped her fingers once again and he was forced to nod his head.

"Great! Then let us begin... mortal. And, I know the Angel of death.. even though I'm commonly known as Inivida."

Suddenly, Erebus snapped his fingers, and the force that was holding Adam down dissipated.

"YOU HUMAN, I WISH YOU LUCK, MORTAL"

Adam, felt like he had been humiliated, but, there was nothing he could do at that point as his resisting, will have disappeared the moment Inivida used her powers to subdue him. He was just a man in front of a 'God'.

"That ferocious expression of rebellion in your eyes..." she glared at him, "But it isn't your looks that would save you," Inivida squirmed uncomfortably.

Since you elected to keep your riddles with you, I figured it was only fair to provide you a scenario that heavily relied on them... Death riddles. It's also something I like. So just don't let me down, will you? Let's get this game started!"

"Remember, human...Even if one question is incorrect, you will perish."

"Let's start with the first puzzle -

It jumps and dances, and it may be read with the eyes, but it lies with the lips. It is readily caught if it meets its match, but it is worthless if it is purchased. "What exactly is it?" Inivida completed repeating the riddle with a lick of her lips.

"It skips and dances... it may be human-"

"You don't have a lot of time..." she grinned, "You have 10 minutes to solve all the riddles, which means one riddle has 60 seconds to solve."

It will not be much time for others, but for him, it's plenty of time.
