The raid of the Primedival Pyramid could be considered anything but a great success.

After the four Lords and their armies met less than two kilometers from the entrance of the Primedival Pyramid everyone could already feel the tension between the four forces.

The Gigantus Desert Scorpions in Danny's rows screeched loudly, while the Goldscale Earthworms in the army of the other Lords swirled restlessly through the sand around them.

No matter how Danny looked at the situation he couldn't help but feel discomfort. It didn't make sense for four archenemies to join their forces and raid the Primedival Pyramid together. Something was off, but Danny had yet to figure out what it was.

He observed the actions and responses of the other Lords as they shared their thoughts about the Primedival Pyramid.

"Since the Primedival Pyramid requires to be conquered from all entrances simultaneously, we won't even have to pay attention to each other upon entering the Pyramid. Everyone can do their own thing before the final battle that determines who will be the sovereign of the four territories," One of the Lords said emotionlessly.

Even until now, Danny didn't know what race this Lord belonged to. He had the head of a Pteranodon, an extremely long neck, and his arms were long and flexible, which made them seem like they were serpents. On the other hand, his legs were thick, allowing him to have a strong foothold on the ground.

Despite that, the Lord didn't seem powerful. He looked more like a small child had haphazardly put together some random monster body parts. However, his strength and the strength of his subordinates was not something that should be underestimated. He was the reason Danny nearly lost his territory twice.

Meanwhile, the two other Lords were no less dangerous. One of them belonged to the Glorack race, a race of small Stone Giants. They were one of the weaker Giant races, their bodies created from mother earth and father stone. The Glorack race was slow, but both their attack power and means of defense were extraordinary.

Danny's Gigantus Desert Scorpions couldn't injure them even with their large pincers or their stingers. Not even the venom with high acidity was strong enough to inflict lethal wounds. After all, the Glorack couldn't feel pain, and the only way they could be killed was by crushing their Lifecore.

Defeating them was difficult for ordinary Summons. Even high-ranked Summons had problems if they were not in possession of powers that allowed them to cut through tempered stone, or crush it with brute force.

Fortunately, Danny had the perfect Soultrait to deal with the Glorack. Faced with Danny as an opponent, the Glorack could only keep some distance to him.

And last but not least there was the Drakna race. The Drakna race was said to have been the Demi-Human offspring of a Dragonaut with extremely low purity of a Red Dragon's bloodline, and a member of a lesser race. They looked like Demi-humans with red scales covering their bodies, small horns growing from their heads, and a large lizard scale growing from their tailbone.

They had a weak innate fire affinity and were adept at using their eyes to easily locate origin energy, the trajectory of projectiles, and see in any environment. Even in utter darkness, the Drakna would be able to see properly, turning them into an extraordinary force during the day and at night.

There was a time when Danny and the Drakna Lord thought about combining their forces. However, before they could do so to deal with the Glorack and the Pteranodon Lord, they took note of the danger and attacked the Drakna Lord from both sides. The Drakna Lord would have died if not for Danny reaching the perimeter at the last moment. Danny focused his attacks on the Glorack Lord and his army, which he nearly decimated while the Drakna Lord fought desperately against the Pteranodon Lord, using the arrival of night to his advantage.

Quite a while had passed since that day, but it was the first time that the four armies had gathered at one place once again. This time it was not for an all-out war either. It was to conquer the Primedival Pyramid.

"Just so everyone knows if anyone here decides to attack my territory while I'm inside the Pyramid with my armyyou will not only lose your lives but I will also make sure that I torture everyone in your territory before taking your Summoning Gate to reactivate mine," Danny warned, his eyes as sharp as the razor-sharp sword that hung down his waist.

The other Lords were oblivious to the fact that he had purchased a Lord Seal not too long ago. The Lord Rift drained his entire savings worth billions of dollars. In fact, even that wasn't enough to purchase the Lord Seal. He had to use up a few favors to get hold of this treasure.

To ensure that his people would be safe, Danny had constructed a large underground bunker deep underneath the mountain range. It was far away from his territory, and also the current location of his subordinates.

Danny didn't trust the other Lords. Thus, he made sure to prepare everything to reclaim his territory if necessary. His subordinates wouldn't die, and he could use the Summoning Cores of his enemies with the Lord Seal to regain his power as a Lord if he was to lose it.

"You can try killing me, human bastard. You are but a hideous stepping stone for me and my people!" The Pteranodon Lord hissed, turning away from the other Lords.

The Drakna Lord's serpentine eyes glimmered upon seeing the Pteranodon Lord's wide-open back but Danny merely shook his head. The Pteranodon Lord wouldn't show his unguarded back to his archenemies not if he wasn't prepared to get attacked. Maybe he was even hoping that the Drakna Lord wouldn't be able to control his emotions and make some stupid mistake.

However, Danny didn't think too much about it either. He put his flat hand against his sword handle and turned away as well.

"Since we know where we have to enter, let's not disturb ourselves with each others' presence. It's disgusting," The Glorack Lord said, also turning away.

Danny looked back at the departing backs of the other Lords, a deep frown appearing on his face.

'Isn't the tension between them almost negligible today? The Drakna Lord's temper didn't flare up even once. He should be throwing fists at both the Glorack and the Pteranodon Lord. However, he merely glared at them. Is he holding back?'

A glare could have several meanings, but it was never for a good reason. Danny couldn't remember to have seen someone glare at him for a good reason, at least. Nonetheless, there hadn't been any killing intent in the Drakna's eyes when he glared at the Pteranodon Lord. It was more of an empty stare void of any intention.

That was weird, and it was also why Danny chose to order his desert scouts to pursue the three Lords and to report to his right hand whenever something happened. Their reports would reach him immediately given that every member of the desert scout unit had been given a short-distance messenger crystal.

They were expensive, but Danny didn't fret over the price. On the contrary, he would have paid a lot more for the messenger crystals as long as they allowed him to be up-to-date about the movements of everyone in the isolated area of the Sacred Desert.

Danny valued information enough to consider the cost of millions as a mere bargain.

He didn't enter the Primedival Pyramid immediately. Instead, he waited for the first reports to reach him before he began to move toward the southern entrance gate of the Primedival Pyramid.

At the entrance gate, Danny ordered the Saharit Elephants who had a thick bone plate growing out of their heads instead of ordinary tusks to charge toward the firm gates and crush them.

The entrance gates in all directions were black, and they had golden enchantments engraved all over them. The enchantments were complex and overlapped with each other, creating a huge illustration with a 3d effect. The images represented the type of challenge they would have to face after succeeding in the initial trial; destroying the four gates without getting killed.

When the Pteranodon Lord had attempted to raid the Primedival Pyramid by himself, he had experienced how devastating the Primedival Pyramid's initial trial truly was.

First of all, the four black gates in all directions had to be attacked simultaneously, otherwise, they couldn't be broken. If the gates weren't attacked simultaneously, the energy that had naturally gathered and condensed inside the Primedival Pyramid over the course of thousands of years would be released to empower the enchantment arrays of the black gates, repairing them faster than they could be destroyed.

Only an existence at the 5th Tier would be able to destroy the black gates faster than the Primedival Pyramid could repair them.

That was one of the reasons four forces were required to charge inside the Primedival Pyramid at once.

Another reason was that the Primedival Pyramid released its forces once someone attempted to destroy the gates. The forces would split up to defend the four gates once the initial trial was set in motion. Instead of moving to four different locations, and splitting into four forces, the Primedival Pyramid's force would divert their focus to protect the other gates if the raiders were unwilling to attack all four gates simultaneously.

The Pteranodon Lord nearly died facing the full force of the Primedival Pyramid's defense power but managed to survive by sacrificing most of his subordinates at that time.

Fortunately, that was not necessary anymore. Four Lords with their full military power attacked the black gates with the aim to destroy the black gates and protect their lives against the Undead forces of the Primedival Pyramid.

It didn't take long until the first Undead emerged from the searing hot sand. Skeletons of all kinds of beings and monsters appeared all around the Primedival Pyramid.

Soon the raid began, sealing the inevitable fate of another Cursed Child.
