Lilith turned and looked back, only to see people walking towards the centre of the square with a paper lantern in hand, faces filled with emotion. "Come on." Aucuses said quickly, jumping over the counter. "We don't really want to miss this. This is an important part of the festival." His words made her turn around, but she immediately was greeted by her hand, which she took without a second thought. Aucuses pulled her closer to him, and they headed for the market area of the town square. They…-

The aroma of food wafted through the square as people streamed between the food stalls. All different flavours of food from around the world were beautifully presented on the stalls. Surprisingly, there was a man dressed in a lavish suit performing mind-blowing tricks in the kitchen of a side stall. In no time, a huge crowd gathered around his stall. In the crowd, Lilith was holding a plate, eating a pie while silently watching a man who was cooking for her. The man in the lavish clothes was none other…

Trier. The City that Never Sleeps. The night didn't seem to bother the bustling city, which was dotted with lights. It was as if the streets had become veins of light around the heart of the metropolis., It was different from St-Millon, even though it shared a similar vibe with it, but it thrived with people and cultures from all over the world. Trier was the cultural epicentre of the entire world. The city has always been vibrant, regardless of the time of day. It was full of cultures and traditions…

"Here." Aucuses smiled as he handed her a cup of coffee. "I brewed it precisely how you like it…..I crushed the coffee beans.....I also ensured that the water was sufficiently hot..." He went on to enthusiastically describe the entire process, breaking the awkward atmosphere around them. Lilith finally smiled and took his coffee that she ever so enjoyed in her hand. "Come on." She indicated with her hand. "Let's sit down first." Aucuses nodded and followed Lilith up the mountain's green slopes.…

The environment becomes silent, as if all sounds have ceased to exist. Lilith turned to face Aucuses, who was being surrounded by people holding books and papers. It was chaotic, despite the silence. He was smiling at them, but his apologetic gaze was fixed on her. His eyes gleamed as well, as if he could see right through her. Then he moved his lips. "Please wait for me. I'll be right there in a second. The people here are far too enthusiastic." His soft voice echoed right beside her ears,…

St. Millon. It was a magnificent city built on the riverbank. It was a city with narrow avenues and small places to sit and eat, and it was also a place to unwind as people went about their daily lives. Sky towers stood in the centre, surrounded by thousands of houses. The towers were graced with a twilight-bathed sword emblem at the top. The sky was eve of the evening, when there is the strength of day and the softness of night, and the city comes alive with music and light. St. Millon was…

He is here again… How does he appear everywhere important and even at the right time? It's as if he has omniscience or something. And, nothing can escape his notice. If Herabergan finds out about this, he will be distraught. And, I'll make sure he hears it. Aucuses should have learned about my plans by now. He shouldn't have disrupted it, though, as Adam didn't descend. And I was correct. Something makes Aucuses uneasy. The Great Sun God is afraid of something! After offending all of the…

Aucuses' eyes dimmed as he finished analysing everything about Antigonus. He discovered many anomalies in Antigonus' mind and fate. Antigonus' fate had been tinkered with, as had his mind. It was a very delicate and precise manipulation. It could even be considered flawless, because the person manipulating Antigonus did not introduce or alter his self or mind; they simply magnified his desire for promotion and his deep fear and hatred of Amanises and Aucuses. Yes, Antigonus also seemed to hate him…

Aucuses appeared with a flash of light in a remote valley of the northern continent. He looked at Solomon's only remaining mausoleum; others had been destroyed by him in the previous week. For this week, he was wandering the world, disrupting Solomon's resurrection plans. During his journey across the northern continent, he also visited St. Millon, Trier, Feynapotter, Roburg, Bexlas, and many other cities, admiring them and analysing the changes brought about by the industrial revolution. The…

Aucuses stood in front of the forty-meter-tall black door engraved with symbols and images. He was familiar with the images and symbols because they represented Solomon's law and rules, as well as, the pictures depicting the unique culture and tradition of the Solomon empire. Overall, it exuded a heavy aura while depicting the magnificence and uniqueness of the Solomon Empire. Looking at the massive door that seemed made for giants, Aucuses was unfazed. Under the authority of "Chaos," the entire…
