The fact that probably Tier 6 devil cultists died here in this world was something that was giving Vali a bad feeling about this world.
This only confirmed his suspicion that something powerful and malevolent was sleeping in this world.
"Also, my ancestor left something here... for eventually, if someone from the Baator ever came to this world, we were to give him this."
The elderly wizard then looked for something inside his locked chest before he took out data storage for the Holo-Brain and even the Holo-Brain itself.
For the human wizard, it was just a piece of metal that he didn't know how to activate, but it was passed from one Lord Black to another, treated with the utmost caution and considered as the greatest treasure of the Hosue Black.
He then passed it to Vali, who instantly recognized what it was as he inserted the data storage into his own Holo-Brain, as a single file appeared in the data storage.
However, it was considered a tremendous amount of data, as he started skimming through the things that were on the data storage with widened eyes.
'Traversing through the Endless Void has proved to be possible, even ignoring natural occurrences like Shroud or Source Wall. The only reason why the experiment on the Traxen failed was due to improper equipment that couldn't handle the energy input required to open the Dimensional Gateway to the worlds in the Endless Void.'
More and more Vali read, he realized that this little thing could propel the entire Chthonian Empire by another century or millennia in its advancement as they would get to traverse through the Endless Void.
He remembered the Traxen incident.
It was an event that forced big waves in the Empire as it caused the destruction of the high-ranking plane that could have been considered vital for the Chthonian Empire.
Aside from that, among the casualties were three entire research teams of the Magisterium of Arcanotech and one research team from the Magisterium of Arcane and Magic Research perished in the incident.
'With this, the research on the Endless Void Travel will be finished in a few decades and we can start exploring the Endless Void probably several centuries earlier than it was initially estimated.'
Vali then stored the data storage together with the Holo-Brain by Lycorisis Black before he took a look at the Arcturus Black, who was attentively observing the devil.
Vali knew that this was the moment when the casual fun ended, and it was time to get serious because this wasn't just about his vacation and having fun, messing with mortals anymore.
"You probably aren't aware of the content of these things or what they even are?"
He asked as the human wizard shook his head in denial.
"Not entirely, only briefly. It was passed through generations and we only know that it should contain some essential magic research."
This was the only thing that he knew as Vali nodded.
"Indeed... though the word 'essential' would be a serious underestimation of what is in that data storage. Frankly speaking, your ancestor who participated in one of the secret researches of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator has recorded here a very crucial thing that has tremendous value for the Empire."
Vali made a brief pause before he continued.
"By the Primordial Contract, you will be rewarded for your merits. For the devil cultists and worshippers of the Father of All Devils, devilhood it is?"
He asked with a grin as the human wizard nodded.
The Primordial Contract was established by the Father of All Devils and it contained countless Laws and Rules, some of which were in regard to the Devil Worshippers and Cultists.
Devilhood was something that all of the devil worshippers converted and longed for because it would propel them to another level in their life.
Now, it wasn't any great secret that the Chthonians could reincarnate other species to devil through some of their ritualistic magic and Arcanotech.
Now with the Empire having the protection of two Tier 12, more in coming and an entire bunch of Tier 11 ones, they didn't need to keep the Class Cards as the Top Secret anymore.
Some of the reincarnated devils were even raised to the Nobility for their strength, merit and unique power, which, upon their reincarnation to the devil, were transitioned to the Clan Traits.
"Naturally, you will also obtain enough resources to purify your own blood to the point of Pure-Blooded Devils and you will also get some plot of land on one of the Nine Layers of the Baator."
Chthonian Empire society was built on meritocracy and principles that values achievements, power, progress, advancement, which was why the strongest experts or brilliant scientists or Arcanists had such high status in the Empire.
Obviously, the contracts were sacred for Devil, as they, really, really loved them.
It was an essential part of their culture and, history, traditions, and practically everywhere where one looked or moved, one would find some bits of the contracts.
"And how many people could be turned to the devils for this?"
Arcturus Black asked carefully, as he knew that he was treading on thin ice because the rewards from the Chthonian Empire were very generous and it was something that their ancestor always longed for.
"Maximum of ten, nothing more and nothing less. That should be enough for you to establish the Noble Lineage in the Empire; also, choose the people carefully, please..."
Vali said this because he had only fifteen Independent Class Cards with him that were only for one use, as they were typically destroyed during the reincarnation process to heighten the effect of the reincarnation.
He also didn't wish to waste all of them on reincarnating the members of the Hosue of Black.
Nevertheless, the Primordial Contract dictates it in this way, so there was nothing else he could do aside from giving him the number of the people who could be reincarnated into devils and would be taken together with him to the Baator.
"That shouldn't be the problem at all... I will carefully choose the people, while the other members of the House Black will remain here."
Arcturus Black stated back.
