Chapter 102: Vol1 Ch102: The first flame (9)

Translator: La0o9

Indeed, in real life, everyone had their own limitations and flaws, and everyone might have been the same as the terrible w.a.n.g Yuan at some point in their life.

Everyone had more or less been through difficulties, and so everyone had fantasized at some point in time about a more perfect and better version of themselves who had overcome that difficult situation.

But in reality, how many people could actually become their fantasized selves?

It was precisely because everyone had more or less wished that they could become a person like him that Negary had such fatal charisma and charm.

The reason why the Crowmen were so willing to give their lives for Negary was that they wished to become an ent.i.ty like Negary, but couldn’t because they understood their limitations. So instead, they believed in becoming one with the perfect being Negary.

Languages and words change over time, such as the word ‘awe’, which used to mean fear, terror or dread now referred to reverence, marvellous or great.

And the word ‘Negary’ that originally meant ominous and plague in the Cauchy language had also changed due to Negary’s existence. It now refers to ‘that which is hidden in the heart’, or rather, a second ‘self’. This second ‘self’ was generally stronger or would act differently to one’s current self in the same current situation.

“Perhaps, defining you as pure evil is a mistake itself” Nala thought for a bit replied to Negary, then turned around and walked into the first flame.

The flame quickly spread to Nala’s body, igniting something within herself. The flame then gushed out from her body, followed by a blinding white light that burst through the sky and spread to the unknown.

The flames surged and began to expand, the Black Abyss power that had turned into mud on Negary’s body started to be changed by the flames as Negary himself also caught on fire.

Every single person on this continent, no matter how far away they were, was able to witness this pillar of blinding white light that shot up to the sky, similar to the White Light in most creation myths.

The mud monsters who were originally immortal all uttered unheard screams as they were turned into fertile soil under the lingering influence of this light. Most likely, a bountiful harvest could be expected in the coming year thanks to this soil.

The inheritor of the [School of Steel], Alkors Louis, who was left to be nursed back to health in a certain village by Jason Todd, seemed to have sensed something as he staggered outside with his knight’s sword in hand and stared straight at the pillar of light.

Tears began to flow from his eyes, this rhythm, this was the rhythm of the Lord that he vowed to follow.

Holding his sword tightly, Alkors used [Respiratory Art] to harmonize himself with that rhythm. His everything quickly began to change, his flesh and skin began to harden and turn into a different material altogether.

Alkors sensed this change, but he didn’t stop and started to smile instead. He was a knight, so he naturally must follow his Lord, regardless of what was ahead, there was no need for him to fear, because his Lord’s glory shined on him always.

The pillar of light gradually dissipated, the Black Abyss was once again burnt away and the first flame- which was also the Flame World – was successfully prolonged.

Meanwhile, at the kiln of the first flame, Negary was still burning with flames, while Nala had turned into a stone statue similar to the Last G.o.d.

She stood there with a quiet expression, her eyes contained no confusion or hesitation, and Nala who had trodden on the right path to the very end was indeed commendable.

The first flame was burning his body as well as his soul, but Negary simply watched the flames on his body without fear or panic. Because the channel within the first flame, the channel that led away from this world, had already been opened.

Within this flame that symbolized everything in this world, Negary found that his Dragon of Eternal Sin body was undergoing some sort of change, while a large amount of information related to this world was rushing into Negary’s mind.

The true history of this world unfolded before him.

The Black Abyss and White Light were two ent.i.ties that were greater than the world itself, and they collided. Of course, this collision might just be a way of communication for these two ent.i.ties.

Just like how a certain kind of human communication could be considered collision for certain tiny tadpoles, couldn’t it?

Naturally, that was only an example, regardless of what the real meaning of the collision between the White Light and Black Abyss was, for the tiny life forms that thrived within them, this collision was equivalent to world-scale war.

After the collision, under the White Light’s influence, a certain fragment of the Black Abyss broke off from the greater Black Abyss. The nature of the fragment was then altered and later became the world that Negary was currently on.

The White Light established the Flame system on this fragment, then transformed the life forms that originally lived within it into the three G.o.ds of flames: the Giant, the New Deity and the Progenitor Dragon.

The Giant was the most powerful, he completed his mission and created more lifeforms from the flame, as these lifeforms breed and multiply, they would slowly deprive the power of the Black Abyss. His actions of creating life itself was a form of prolonging the flame.

But when it came time for the New Deity and the Progenitor Dragon to accomplish their missions, the Black Abyss retaliated. It gave them the freewill to escape their missions and the opportunity to do so.

After the New Deity and the Progenitor Dragon ran away, the Flame World began to collapse. The Last G.o.d was the White Light’s solution, which led to its victory, but not by much.

After this struggle, this fragment of the Black Abyss no longer contained much value, so the attention of the White Light and Black Abyss slowly shifted away from it, as there were far more places that these two ent.i.ties collided than just this single fragment.

It was because of this that Granny Seal’e had offered Negary as a sacrifice in hope of attracting the attention of the Black Abyss again.

〖 This world is truly full of despair 〗Negary continued moving forward in the flame. The essence of this world was nothing but a single collision by two gigantic monstrous ent.i.ties. Regardless of whether humanity chose to follow the flames or return to the Black Abyss, they would still only be chess pieces of the two ent.i.ties and follow their domination.

〖 Perhaps, even escaping from this world does not mean escaping the status of being a chess piece. After all, even the True Spirit that is said to be the essence of life itself originated from those ent.i.ties 〗even as Negary thought this way, he did not hesitate to enter the pa.s.sage to leave this world.

〖 Not moving forward out of fear simply means that there is no escape. Regardless of what happens, it is already near impossible for me to continue to improve in this world. Those great and indescribable ent.i.ties are still too far away from my current self. What I need to do right now is to continue strengthening myself 〗

〖 I hope that there will be a way to improve the quality of my soul in another world 〗Negary’s Dragon of Eternal Sin form slowly vanished in the pa.s.sage.

As for this current world, he might decide to come back here one day, or he might never return again, who knows.

Within the grand burning flame, only the stone statue of a girl stood still by herself, perhaps unchanged no matter how much time pa.s.sed.

The former knight of Divine Grace Rivers and Isabella came together and soon had a daughter.

The new King of Royas continued his predecessor’s legacy, still burning with wild ambition.

Ever since the Black Cloud of Crows incident, the people of Interkam had started to become less than healthy. After a certain n.o.ble’s secret room was opened by a group of greedy treasure-seekers, a terrifying plague spread all over the land of Interkam.

In a place called Tarroy, a youngster put on a mask full of scars together with various mementos and began his journey.

Within the unknown wilderness where lush green gra.s.s grew and prospered, the final bits of a finger bone crumbled away.
