Rumble! The illusory door materialized, emanating a divine aura. It slowly opened, as the sunlight in the sky dimmed, heralding the arrival of night much sooner. Ignoring the changes in the sky, Aucuses strode into the door of the divine kingdom. Boom! Upon his entrance, the doors immediately closed and became illusory, before completely disappearing from view. In the tenebrous heaven, Aucuses walked. His heart felt unequally calm, though his thoughts were wandering while gazing at the divine…-

Under the light of the sun, Aucuses got off the carriage, looking at the steam cathedral. It's been a year since the ascension of Artisan and eleven years since his invasion of the southern continent. Eleven years flew by for him. Even though a lot happened around him, he remained the same as always. There have been a lot of changes in the past few years. The most influential change was due to ascension of Artisan. His ascension caused the entire human civilization to have a significant leap in every…

"Let's begin.." Artisan said deeply, his voice resounding across the world. "Start the engines…" The entire floating continent rumbled lightly, as huge mechanical doors under the continent began to open, revealing humongous thrusters. In the machine control, cardinals hurriedly gave everything a final check. The engine condition, the situation of the protective layer, the defence mechanism, the radar, so on. After the confirmation, they looked at the red button in the middle of the machine control…

10 Years Later, Northern Continent. Artisan knew it was time. The most important moment in his life had finally arrived. He stood before the window of his bronze tower, quietly gazing at the miracle that he had built. Depsite the blood, sweat, and tears that were shed in the process, he never wavered in that path. He kept going, just to reach the ultimate "Truth". His miracle, the Floating Continent, was a wonder in and of itself. The Continent was about 1/3 the size of the Northern Continent. The…

Spirit World. Amanises was holding a wisp of ethereal darkness in her left index finger. She also held the crimson moon in her other hand, which was aligned right above the wisp of darkness. The crimson moon was illusory, allowing her to see through the celestial body and gaze into the wisp of darkness. She was using all of her authority to peer through the mysterious wisp in her hand. The wisp was also coated in her authority, restricting it from acting on the surroundings. Time ticked on.…

Aucuses stood on the deck of a boat, leaning against the railing, his face aglow with the last orange rays before sun beckons the stars. He gazed upon the vast sea ahead, his lips bearing a semblance of a smile, just enough to show that he was enjoying the view. He was looking into the horizon, where the sky and sea were merging together. The colour was almost black. The setting sun was in rich crimson colour, almost as though it was dyed in blood. It looked as if the red sun was sinking into the water…

Mount Etna. The tallest mountain in the southern continent, with its peak piercing the sliding clouds. It was dressed in evergreens down to its crowns of silvery white. The mountain has guarded the souls of this land for an immeasurable time. This was the paradise for the cursed ones. "Cursed ones," they call them, rather discriminatory and yet befitting of the race. The cursed are the beyonders of the Chained path. The path had always been controversial all over the world, even more so than the…

"Your excellency." Azik Eggers bowed, showing the respect due to a god. It didn't matter whether he was Emperor of Bayam or Consul of Death, such titles meant little to the person before him. Although he did his best to appear respectful and polite, his tone still remained cold and indifferent. Aucuses didn't care and gestured to the seat. "Sit down, Azik Eggers." Azik obeyed and sat down, putting his hands on the table and interlacing his fingers. He kept his head down and dared not look again at…

Chaos. There was only chaos on the cursed land called the Southern Continent. The very concepts of reality have been affected by it. The line between death and life has long been blurred. The southern continent is a cursed land in the mouths of northerners. The legends that come from here can terrify even a war veteran. It was such a eerie place, in and of itself. There is no law or justice in this forsaken land. It was literally hell for the weak and heaven for the strong. It follows the law of the…

The rising sun shone through the clouds, illuminating Trier. Aucuses sat on the balcony, twirling a glass of wine in his hand. His gaze lingered on the sleeping figure in the room. His heart was full of emotions just looking at the peaceful face of the figure in the bed. That sleeping figure is none other than Lilith. Aucuses sighed and chose to drink her wine and distract himself from her. Yesterday, he was so careless with Lilith…They both walked on thin ice, nearly breaking through concealment…
