"You’re referring to the forr Rylen Continent?"
After Loren unified the land, the Rylen Continent had been renad the Loren Continent.
Of course, after so many years and so many conquests, Lothar had likely nad more than one continent after Loren.
But based on the story Lothar had just told...
There was almost no chance he ant anywhere else.
Lothar nodded.
"That’s right. If you ever have the opportunity to return, you can take a look."
"It should still be there. No one ought to have taken it."
Rei replied casually.
"All right."
The mont Lothar finished speaking, the space before him split open.
A crack in reality appeared.
Rei took a single step and vanished from Lothar’s sight.
Then, with another step, he erged once more from the rift.
And in his hand was a book covered in intricate black patterns.
It was unmistakably the very Codex of Fate Lothar had described.
Even Lothar, who had maintained his composure throughout their conversation, was montarily stunned.
"This is the one you’re talking about, correct?"
The forr Rylen Continent lay an imnse distance from the Land of the Moon.
Even aboard a Sea of Moon vessel capable of traversing spatial currents and dramatically shortening travel ti, the journey still required nearly a full year.
That was already the fastest ans of transportation known in the world.
After all, humanity possessed no other thod of long-range spatial travel.
The only exception was the Hive’s Phase Shift.
But that was a racial ability belonging to another species.
Not sothing humans could master or wield.
And yet Rei had seemingly traveled to Loren and back in a single step.
"Y-Yes..."
Lothar had yet to recover from his shock.
"That’s the one. It looks exactly as I rember."
Rei nodded.
"Fortunately, the continent still exists. Otherwise, a treasure like this might have been lost forever."
Lothar looked dazed.
"You really went to the Loren Continent just now? How is it there?"
Rei shook his head.
"Not well. It’s much like the other continents in this sea—already overrun by monsters."
"I killed everything there while I was passing through, but that doesn’t change anything else."
A trace of lancholy crossed Lothar’s face.
"I see..."
"I haven’t returned there in a very long ti."
The continent’s destruction had always been inevitable.
Ten years truly had turned everything upside down.
But his lancholy lasted only an instant before he regained his usual composure.
"I was just wondering how I could possibly place this item into your hands."
"It seems there was no need for to worry."
"If you require any further assistance, the treasury of the Land of the Moon is entirely at your disposal. Take whatever you wish."
"As for everything else... I doubt I need to say much."
At Rei’s level of power, he was more than capable of deciding for himself what he wanted to do and what needed to be done.
Lothar had no need to concern himself with such matters.
Rei nodded.
"By the way, there’s one thing I’ve never understood."
"Your Majesty, why do you insist on sitting on that chair all the ti?"
Lothar responded with a mysterious smile.
"That chair is my protective treasure. Do you believe ?"
Rei rely shrugged.
That story might deceive others.
But before soone like Rei—who could see through all truth and discern information directly—
It was obvious that the throne was nothing more than an ordinary chair.
Its shape was a little unusual, but that was all.
It did not even qualify as a magic tool.
At most, it had been infused with traces of mana and engraved with elaborate ritual patterns ant to impress onlookers.
In reality, its only function was intimidation.
It had no actual effect whatsoever.
Though others might very well believe it.
They could easily imagine that Lothar’s imperial throne possessed so extraordinary magical power.
"Thank you, Lothar."
"This item is extrely useful to . As for the treasury, forget it."
"You should keep those things yourself."
"I’ve already added a few items to it."
During the past few hours, Rei had casually slain countless Eighth Rank monsters.
The number of Rank 1 through Rank 7 monsters he had killed was even more staggering.
There had been so many that not even his Myriad-Hide Bag could contain all the spoils.
So he had simply dumped the excess items he had no use for directly into Loren’s treasury as a return gift.
As for the book in his hand—
Its true title was:
Fate
And its creator...
Creator: Inel Lipani
The na seed unfamiliar.
But if it were translated into another na—
Pari.
Then it beca instantly recognizable.
This book fully explains causality and fate. Requirent to open: Prophet Level 3
"Pari..."
"Was this part of your calculations as well?"
There was one thing that had always been predetermined:
This ti, the Prophet class was destined to fall into his hands.
The mont he obtained that class, he had already known this to be a fixed destiny.
And the opening requirent...
It might as well have been tailored specifically for him.
"Prophet Level 3."
"Perfect. I’ll raise that level as well."
Over the course of ten years, the future had changed drastically.
Even though he had vanished for a decade, the influence of everything he had done ten years ago still remained.
And its impact on the world was substantial.
And...
"Right, Lothar."
"I have one more gift for you."
Lothar raised an eyebrow.
"Oh? Another gift?"
A proud, almost arrogant smile appeared on Rei’s face as his will spread outward.
His voice thundered into the minds of everyone present like the beating of celestial war drums.
"Everyone—watch with all your might."
Whoosh!
ntal Invasion.
Their senses were forcibly linked to Rei’s own.
They saw what he saw.
Their feeble perception, which had previously extended only five or ten kiloters, expanded in an instant.
They beheld the boundless Sea of Moon.
They beheld a vast world spanning 400 billion kiloters.
The sheer scale struck every soul with overwhelming force.
Even a Level 7 Observer could not perceive such an imnse range.
Within that perception, they saw endless monsters rampaging across the world.
They saw countless creatures continuously crawling from the Abyss.
And yet, within tens of billions of kiloters surrounding the Land of the Moon, there remained a single sanctuary.
A pure land.
But it would not remain so for long.
From the distant horizons, monsters were already racing toward them once more.
Shock.
Awe.
Relief.
Anxiety.
Despair.
These emotions surged and spread through every heart.
"Please witness the destruction of all of this."
Rei’s voice rang out again.
Standing before Lothar, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
Snap—
A dazzling eruption of elental light instantly engulfed everything within a radius of 400 billion kiloters.
Roar!
Brilliant elental radiance replaced the black sea.
Elents boiled.
The ocean surged.
Release — Elental Kaleidoscope
Every monster withered in that instant, dissolving into pure elental essence.
Ninth Rank elental magic completely covered the sea.
Before the eyes of all, Kanzaki Rei created a realm of absolute death.
