Lu Zhiyu sat on the divine throne of the Creator. He seemed to have aquired another perspective at that moment. He watched the birth and development of the whole of Maria’s World, the birth and death of every being and race.
He saw an albino bear running on the grasnd, the mouse-people trying to catch prey with a stone spear, the traces of life gradually appearing in the ocean. He saw the growth of all things, the reproduction of life, the birth of civilization. It was a world full of vitality.
And then, he saw himself.
It was the first time he had set foot in Maria’s World. At that time, he was only twenty years old, young and immature. He’d first appeared on a hillside on the Red River ins. At that time, the orcs were only mouse-people and human beings hadn’t appeared. He was just an ordinary person then, a vulnerable, ordinary person who could only live for less than 100 years. A fragile life that could be extinguished so easily.
Behind him was the dense and primitive jungle and in front of him was a massive and broad river. There were many animals drinking from the water beside the river. Birds were singing in the jungle, eagles were gliding through the sky, and fat rabbits were running on the grassy slope.
The twenty-year-old him rushed excitedly down the hillside, frightening the animals at the riverside. The animals dispersed in an uproar. He stood by the riverside and looked up at the blue sky, as if the old him was exchanging a gaze with the present him at that moment.
They were divided by thousands of years, yet they looked at each other. Everything was like samsara... Everything began with him and also ended with him.
But at that time, with that old him, his gaze was filled with excitement, expectant and hopeful. His smiling face had been iparably sincere, but now there was only a mysterious face hidden behind the Divine Shadow. He was wearing the Mask of Faross with the sun engravings on his face, and under the mask was a pair of eyes that looked absent of emotions.
With the birth of civilization, the orcs established a city-state of civilization, and the twelfth generation of Orc Kings ruled Saga City, one after another. When Ahenaten, the Golden King, killed Costa, the twelfth generation Wolf King, the era of mankind was proimed.
He saw Ahenaten, a young man who had traveled with him to the Kingdom of Orc, grow old little by little until, in his pce, he begged bitterly for eternal life from Lu Zhiyu. Finally, he held onto the Sword of the King and looked at the portrait of himself at the moment when he had received a revtion from his god, Lu Zhiyu, and died reluctantly.
War, fighting, the substitution of dynasties and the advancement of civilization. The dynasty established by Ahenaten, the Golden King, perished. On the remote Y Continent, he’d nted his first Tree of Life and embraced Mehare, the world’s first elf, with his own hands.
The tribes and city-states of the orcs had surrounded and fought with Saga City for thousands of years while human beings had split apart and merged. After the Golden Dynasty, there emerged the Silver Dynasty of the Prolis Empire and the Bronze Dynasty of the Tyron Empire. Atst, the Iron Dynasty of the Crete Empire emerged. At the same time, human beings continued to travel to distant ces, the Batko region, the Exotic Kingdom, and the Tuten region. Human civilization began to emerge.
He created and killed Sakun himself. The blood of the ancient God of the Sea diffused all over the ocean; it announced for the arrival of an extraordinary era!
Sahagins, Titan Dragons, and all kinds of magical beasts appeared in the world. Saintess Kelly gained her own ichor. The first pope, Pope Hodap, established the Kingdom of the Church of Light.
The first Wizard Tower rose in the ck Forest. The first generation of wizards came and arrived with the oldest alchemy ship, the SS Eternity. Bohr, Akkad, Uruk, Leves, Henry, Wendy, Catherine, and Wolfe, all those familiar figures appeared in front of Lu Zhiyu one by one. That was when they were at their youngest; each one owned a pair of eyes which reflected innocence and dreams back then.
In his dream, he gave Kelly the Mask of Faross, he nudged forward the supernatural era of Titan Dragons, magical beasts, gods, and wizards to their peaks. The saints established the divine system in baptism. Rooney, the one who was loved by God, destroyed the Kingdom of Luhmann and established the Kingdom of Rosa d’Oro. Leves went crazy as he roared madly at his punishment of death by burning.
With a lovely pair of lion’s ears, Verthandi acted in a pettishly charming manner. He took her around the world and explored the world with her. He gave her the Sword of the King and the power of the Divine Kingdom’s Network Host because she was a real descendant of God and the chosen one of heaven.
With the rise and unification of the orcs, the Lion King, Will, established the Holy Seville Empire and the war between humans and orcs broke out again.
The Crete Empire of the Iron Dynasty perished, the Holy Seville Empire crumbled, the Tuten Dynasty vanished, and the Pusuote Empire sumbed, countlessrge and small countries withered and new countries were rebuilt among the ruins.
The Era of the Sea had arrived!
Thousands of sailing ships and alchemy shipspeted for hegemony over the ocean. Arge number of professionals, derived from the perfection of the divine system, maneuvered across the ocean. Wizards explored every corner of the world. Elves walked out of the Y Continent and the Mermaid Kingdom dominated the world within the ocean.
With the arrival of the Era of Gods, numerous powerful professionalspeted with and killed each other for divinity and divine personality in order to ascend the divine throne. They came to hold the Star Kingdom above the clouds. The Goddess of Harvest, Bernice, the Legendary Adventurer, Marina, the Queen of Mermaids, Gina, the Lord Torvald, Jonathan, the fourth-generation Master of the Wizard Tower, Edward, and so on. There were sessful cases and unsessful cases, but Lu Zhiyu was iparably familiar with all those figures.
The civilization on earth was also advancing by the ancient way of survival. Then, with the emergence of the three gods of civilization, the age of Magic Crystal had arrived!
One after another, people or things which Lu Zhiyu was familiar with continued to vanish, and finally, nothing was left.
“So long... I’ve lived for so long!”
Lu Zhiyu sat on the divine throne of the Creator and looked at the world’s aboriginal information recorded by Divine Kingdom’s Network Host. At the same time, all the rules and information explored by the seventeen gods flowed into Lu Zhiyu’s body.
Lu Zhiyu had mastered every rule that seventeen gods had explored and understood, and every rule and piece of information rted to the aboriginal of the world had been carved into the Divine Shadow of Lu Zhiyu.
Massive amounts of information in the form of light continued to rush into the body of Lu Zhiyu, and the divine body of Lu Zhiyu was undergoing dramatic changes. From the memory of the world to the deeper degree of rules, Lu Zhiyu saw theposition of the world, the tiniest parts of the world, every rule, and every basic particle.
Lu Zhiyu seemed to have seen a gate, the door to the truth, the door to the true sovereignty of a Creator.
At that moment, Lu Zhiyupletely grasped the power of a Creator. Even without the picture scroll, he could create a new world. The current growth of Maria’s World didn’t have a significant use for Lu Zhiyu any longer. The various powers and abilities of the Creator were constantly transformed into various bit of knowledge and truth and became part of Lu Zhiyu. They awaited being used and digested by Lu Zhiyu.
Lu Zhiyu had mastered everything. The huge light pirs had dispersed and even his divine power was vanishing. It was like he was returning to his original simplicity. He revealed his original appearance, transformed into a huge human figure, and sat on the divine throne of the Creator.
At the same time, there was a series of glimmering lights twinkling in the Kingdom of Light. One by one, several floating inds of the divine throne appeared in the sky of the Kingdom of Light. The floating inds of the seventeen divine thrones, together with the throne of the Creator, formed into a circle.
The difference was that, at that moment, on every throne, there was a Divine Shadow that emitted a strong divine radiance. Seventeen gods were looking at the throne of the Creator and at Lu Zhiyu at the same time.
Many gods had known the identity of the Creator long before this and they had even guessed the real identity of Lu Zhiyu. They were still uncertain then, but now when they were facing Lu Zhiyu as the Creator, they could feel his irresistible power. No matter what the power, authority, and rules were, when in front of him and his power, it was significant.
The Gods were no longer superior. They were waiting merely at the feet of that man.
Lu Zhiyu, who was hidden behind the Mask of Faross, scanned every god. Some smiled, some looked afraid and frightened, some were at a loss, some seemed to have no expression or emotion. Even the other most powerful god expressed the various characteristics of a human then.
Lu Zhiyu stretched out his hand, reached to the Mask of Faross on his face, and slowly took it down. It exposed his ck hair and the face underneath the mask. He wanted everyone to see his true appearance. He ignored the confusion of various gods. The gods didn’t know why Lu Zhiyu did that, but many of the gods who were present looked at his face and their gazes suddenly settled down, as if they had received the answer and closure they wanted.
Lu Zhiyu stood up and the Creator’s divine throne disappeared behind him bit by bit as his entire body transformed into blurry starlight that dissipated in the Kingdom of Light.
“Now! This world belongs to all of you!”
