I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

There were no unexpected events during the process of removing the Rubik's Cube.

When Anno took the Rubik's Cube from the summoned creature, he discovered that the magic runes on the nine squares of the previously solved side had all disappeared, leaving only the remaining five sides.

It's easy to deduce that if the remaining five sides are pieced together, they might also release what the magic runes represent.

"Who made this thing?"

Anno tried turning it.

He originally thought that just rotating it slightly wouldn't cause any changes if one side wasn't properly assembled.

But unexpectedly, the entire Rubik's Cube suddenly turned from black to red.

Moreover, the demonic runes that had vanished upon the death of the demon have now reappeared in a different form.

The shape of the magic mark is that of a giant bear roaring to the sky.

Anno had only turned once before.

In other words, he only needs to turn back one more time to complete the picture of the giant bear.

But Anonuo didn't dare to do that at all.

"It's red!"

Upon seeing the change in color, Anno quickly disrupted the magic markings on the giant bear.

By absorbing souls through the [Spirit Offering], Anno learned that the souls of beings of different levels appear in different colors.

From the initial zeroth rank to the current sixth rank, the corresponding soul colors are white, green, yellow, blue, orange, purple, and black!

red.

Anno has not met her yet.

But it's definitely a high-level one.

Previously, the Rubik's Cube was black, and the demon released was at the peak of the sixth level.

The Rubik's Cube is currently red, giving Anno reason to suspect that the bear is a higher-level creature.

"Master, we've found it!"

While Anno was examining the Rubik's Cube, a Bone Demon Commander beside him handed him two scarlet claws.

These are the claws of a demon, extremely sharp.

When Anno learned that these were sacrificial materials, he was worried that they might be destroyed.

In retrospect, it was all an overreaction.

By placing his claws in front of him, Anno sacrificed the soul of the Bloodclaw Demon, and then the Bloodclaw Demon's figure appeared before Anno.

"Owner!"

Hearing the other party respectfully call him master, Anno knew that, like the other summoned creatures, he had no memories of his previous life except for his loyalty to him.

Therefore, it's impossible to ask what a Rubik's Cube actually is.

"We still need to ask that dwarf!"

Anno put away his summoned creature and headed towards the town.

Leia and the others had returned to town. Sassi and Adelaide were guarding the town gate, while Liz and Ella, as Anno had instructed, were keeping an eye on Gulisha.

When they saw Anno return, Leia and the others cheered excitedly.

Anno walked up to Gulisha, whose face was still streaked with tears, and frowned, saying, "Perhaps we need to have a serious talk."

"Lord An, please ask whatever you want, and I will tell you everything I know."

Gulisha knows she has made a big mistake and is now preparing to make amends.

Led by Leia, Anno entered a council chamber in the town.

Through his conversation with Gulisha, Anno learned that the Rubik's Cube was given to Gulisha by her father, Gemland Ernest, the day before yesterday.

She and her father have lived in this small town for three years, where they run a blacksmith shop.

The blacksmiths in Gormland are skilled in forging, and many residents buy farm tools from them, while professionals buy weapons and armor. Business has always been good.

However, when the wolf pack attacked two days ago, Gormland was seriously wounded in the battle and was on the verge of death when he was withdrawn from the battlefield.

He told Gulisha that there was a black cube-shaped box in the trunk of her house, named Pandora.

Pandora is a family heirloom containing immense power.

If your life is threatened and you have nowhere to retreat, you can open Pandora's box and then you will have a chance to escape!

As for how to open it, Gomland has already pieced together the magic runes on one side until only the last piece remains, and it only takes a few more steps to complete.

After telling Gulisha the final steps, Gormland died in agony—his injuries were too severe for the town's priest to help.

Before dying, the delirious Gomland kept repeating, "Pandora is the key to the seal, never open the seal! Pandora is the key, never open the seal..."

Gulisha was going through the pain of losing a loved one and didn't pay attention to these words.

It now appears that Pandora does indeed possess immense power.

But it's uncontrollable!

"Is there any other news besides this?"

Anno didn't expect that Gulisha had only just gotten her hands on the Rubik's Cube.

Leia and others can testify to Gormland's death.

But Anno had no way of getting information from the dead.

Moreover, since Pandora is the key to the seal, it cannot open the seal.

Why did Gormland tell Gulisa the steps to restore the magic runes?

"I'm sorry, Lord An. That's all I know."

Gulisha said with a look of frustration, "If I had known even a little more information, I wouldn't have opened Pandora!"

After hearing Gulisha's answer, Anno remained silent for a while.

Leia and the deputy captain of the soldiers in the room glanced at Anno and then at Gulisha, not daring to interrupt.

"Gurisha, since you are a dwarf and a member of the Ernest family, do you know anything about Kim Ernest and Silver Ernest?"

"Lord An, do you know Brother Kim and Brother Silver?" This time it was Gulisha's turn to be puzzled.

Kim and Eun are Gulsa's cousins.

The two men's fathers were brothers.

However, Gulisha came to the Roland Empire with her father three years ago and hasn't seen Kim and Silver for a long time.

"I come from the Kingdom of Nigar. I fought alongside Kim and Yinmu against the undead legion at the kingdom's border."

My destination is the Dwarf Kingdom.

If possible, I would like you to come with me to the Dwarf Kingdom and, while you're there, visit the Ernest family!

"Is Lord An going to the Dwarf Kingdom?"

Gulisha suddenly became agitated. She went to Anno and pleaded, "Please take me back to the Dwarf Kingdom."

In Nip Town, Gulisha also made some good friends.

But in the end, she and her father were the only dwarves in the town.

Now that her father is dead, she has unleashed a demon that nearly destroyed the town.

Although Anno destroyed the demon, Gurisha's release of the demon will cause the townspeople to look at her with strange eyes.

Perhaps even if Anno hadn't made this request, Gulisa would have chosen to leave on her own after the crisis in the town was resolved.

"Then get ready tonight, we'll set off tomorrow."

To further understand the secrets of the Rubik's Cube, one must first meet the other members of the Ernest family.

Anno is now very curious about this cube that may contain high-level monsters, but he also has some worries.

Who exactly created this thing?

Is there only one quantity?

When were the demons sealed inside? And who were they?

There was absolutely no clue about any of these things.

But Anno had a vague premonition that if the Rubik's Cube issue wasn't dealt with, it could very well lead to an event that would destabilize the entire continent of Angoros.
