I Am God!

Leize Kingdom.

In the streets and alleys, snake-men walked out of the houses with their tails twirling. Some naughty snake-men children climbed down from the trees and gathered cheeringly on the streets entering the city.

The divine attendants came carrying the statue that symbolized the giant god in the sky. It was a mysterious figure that looked like a jellyfish or a gauze cloak, full of hazy artistic beauty.

Just like the clouds and fog deep in Thunder Swamp.

“The gods answered us.”

"It is God who protects us, and we are where we are today."

"Once the King of Serpents invaded our country, it was with God's blessing. It was because of this great swamp that we gained stability and peace."

"We should thank the gods."

"The gods tell us from afar that it won't be long before his messengers come to earth."

On the street, everyone made a roar like a roaring mountain or a tsunami, because this was indeed a joyful thing.

In a country without the protection of gods, civilians will also feel insecure and insecure.

In a prayer hall building in the distance, Oran also heard the sound.

Those people in the distance had just finished the sacrificial ceremony for the giant god in the sky not long ago, and now they were starting another ceremony to welcome the god.

Everyone felt that this ceremony to welcome the gods was extremely sacred and they felt that they were pious.

It seemed that as long as they brought this statue back, the gods would live in the city and be with them.

But Oran feels that these people are pitiful and ridiculous, because their gods have never given them oracles, and everything is just their own imagination and speculation.

even.

The gods they believe in don’t even know that they believe in themselves.

People come and go in the prayer hall.

Under the wall, Oran used illusions to cover his body shape and appearance, and spoke to the divine attendant beside him who was waiting for him.

“You can’t see God’s reflection, you can’t hear God’s voice, you don’t know God’s will.

"But you can believe in God."

"This may be the most ridiculous and foolish scene for a mortal."

Oran didn't know what the superior god thought when he saw this scene. He probably wasn't angry, but was watching a human farce.

This is a prayer hall for God Iwa. The Kingdom of Leize believes in the giant god of the sky. However, there are a large number of merchants from the Land of the Rising Sun in this kingdom, and they also need to pray on weekdays.

Therefore, there are also many prayer halls for God Iwa here.

Not only that, many families here also worship the Scarlet Goddess and other gods, and various beliefs are intertwined here.

certainly.

The mainstream still believes in the giant god in the sky.

Freedom of belief, which had not yet completely begun in the Ten Thousand Snakes King's Court, was first implemented here.

The divine attendant in the prayer hall did not know Olan's true identity, they only knew that he was an alchemist from the Land of the Rising Sun.

A very powerful servant of God Iva, at least level three.

Oran asked them to vacate the prayer hall to him after sunset, and they agreed.

However, after hearing Olan's words, the divine servant couldn't help but say.

"Your Mightiness."

"I don't think you should say that about them."

Oran turned his head and looked at the other person, his eyes seemed to be questioning the other person.

Why?

But the other party said to Oran: "They are not only longing for the arrival of the gods, but also expecting and longing for a better future."

"Everyone's needs in this world are different. Ordinary people don't need to know such great principles, nor can they know the great true meaning."

"They don't have the profound knowledge to understand the world like you do. They worry about having three meals a day every day."

"A great alchemist like you hopes to go to the kingdom of God to be with God. God's servants hope to be able to interpret the will of God to make themselves more pious. The purpose of mortals is just to bring comfort to themselves through belief in God."

"Everyone has his own purpose and wants, so what everyone can see is different."

"God is too great, but we are too small."

"We can never guess the will of God and his great figure. All we can do is this small expectation."

The other party made a praying posture and said seriously.

"But with faith, there is cohesion, and this kingdom was born."

"Whether it is God Iva or the giant god in the sky."

"Even if the gods did not notice this city and country, this country has integrated into a civilization with the help of faith."

"Everyone believes that God is protecting us in the dark, and believes that this country has a bright future."

"For mortals, that's enough."

"Why do you demand that mortals understand those great principles? Why do you demand that small people who can't eat three meals a day have the piety to understand God's will?"

The Divine Attendant said finally.

"What you see in this ceremony is the ignorance of mortals, but everyone sees hope and the future in this ceremony."

"Even if this hope is not so real, it still guides everyone to move forward."

Oran looked at the other party, not expecting that the God of the Prayer Hall in a remote place like Leize Kingdom could say such a thing.

He also remembered that he had been here more than a hundred years ago. At that time, this place was a group of remote wilderness, full of snake-men who were like savages.

Nowadays, earth-shaking changes have taken place here.

The giant sky god did not directly change this place, but he changed it little by little.

The snake people have come all the way from the wilderness and have developed the prosperous civilization they have today for more than a thousand years. It is precisely because of the promotion of the gods behind them.

This is true for the god Iva of the Land of the Rising Sun, the scarlet goddess of Suinhor, and the god of truth and knowledge believed by the Aiweir people.

Regardless of the gods' original intentions, everything the Snake People have now is thanks to their grace.

Oran thought of this and said in an apologetic voice.

"indeed so."

"I shouldn't say this, everyone sees things differently."

"My ideas are too arrogant and I use my perspective to replace everyone else."

Changing his perspective, Oran looked into the distance again, listening to the noisy sound.

Suddenly I felt that this ceremony was completely different again.

Olan had a realization at this moment.

"Civilization is from darkness to light, from ignorance to greatness."

"Gods are the first guides in the world, the forerunners to the distant places."

Oran's views on gods are constantly changing at different stages of life.

From blindly following the gods, to fearing the gods, to following the gods.

When you blindly follow the gods, you feel that the gods are omniscient and omnipotent, believe that the gods can bestow you with everything, and place everything on the gods.

When you revere gods, you feel that gods are extremely powerful beings that you cannot stay away from or approach.

And Oran.

As he gradually understands the will of the gods, he can gradually be said to be following the gods.

he thought.

"The one at the forefront of civilization now is the White Tower Alchemy Alliance."

"The ancient and great gods have ushered in a new era, and everything is like the dawn of the sun."

"Next."

"Maybe it's us who stand up."

Oran is very confident and proud of the White Tower Alchemy Alliance.

The White Tower Alchemy Alliance is not the largest country. Compared with the Suinhor City-State Alliance and the King's Court of Ten Thousand Snakes, the White Tower Alchemy Alliance is very small.

But there is the greatest vitality here, and Olan feels that something will break out here that will change the entire world.

Olan has a new understanding of this journey.

——

Night falls.

The people in the prayer hall gradually left, and the entire hall was vacated for Olan.

Facing the statue of God Ivar, Oran knelt on the ground and began to pray.

He used the three-part divine name to communicate with the distant realm of gods through dreams and rituals.

"The god of lights who lives in the Sky Garden, the controller of desire and alchemy, the god Ivar who guides the stars."

"Your Apostle Oran prays to you, asking for your response."

After repeating it, Oran got a response from God.

Silver flowers appeared at the feet, spreading along the side, connecting with the starry sky in the distance.

The scene in the miracle garden in the sky appeared around Oran, great and quiet.

The door of desire appears at the end, and the lanterns are like stars in the sky.

The majestic mythical shadow appeared under the door and looked at Oran.

"Apostle Oran."

"Say your prayer."

Only a special apostle like Olan can contact the gods at any time, and only he can get a response from the gods so quickly.

Oran thought for a while, then raised his head and looked up at the god and said.

Oran told God Iva about his discoveries in Thunder Swamp, including the sky ship he saw crossing the sea of ​​clouds in the sky of Thunder Swamp.

"God Ivar!"

"I saw the legendary vehicle of the Lord of Life entering the legendary Lost Kingdom. For this reason, the relatives of the giant beast in the sky left the depths of the swamp to welcome the arrival of the great Lord."

"God, do you know why the supreme god came to earth?"

"The great master of life appears in the world, we need to do something."

Oran knows that in the eyes of ordinary people, the Lord of Life and the Lord of Dreams seem to be two completely different gods, and they don't seem to be much related.

But Oran knew from the storage fairy Saint Raphael that the master of life and the master of dreams are one, and the entire creation system has always represented the same will.

That belongs to the true will of the Creator.

The gods under the Gate of Myth took a step forward and raised the lamp in their hands to illuminate the starry sky and the entire world.

Thousands of lights flash together and shine together.

God Ivar stared at Oran, making sure that everything he said was true.

"There is nothing to do, and the Supreme Lord does not need you to do anything."

"That is the ship of the Lord of Dreams, an artifact of the Kingdom of Creation."

"The sacred boat is the boat that attracts dreams, and it is the vehicle of the supreme god."

"Has the authority to directly open the door to the Kingdom of Creation."

Only a being like God Iva who comes from the Kingdom of Creation God knows such a secret.

God Iva seemed to have known something for a long time, but he still couldn't help but be excited at this moment,

"It's not just the Lord of Life who comes."

"But the supreme gods have come to earth together, together with the Creator Yinsai."

The god of desire and alchemy is a god who does not seem to have many emotions, or a god who seems very reserved.

But at this moment, His words were excited, full of expectation and desire.

God Iva said to Oran.

"Olan."

"You saw the Creator!"

Oran looked confused. Of course he knew about the Creator, but he had never realized what the concept of a god like the Creator was.

"The Creator has come to earth."

"The era of the divine moon has arrived, the trumpet of the master of life has sounded, and everything will change."

"Olan!"

"Your being able to meet the Creator may be a guide from somewhere. The will of the supreme god is leading you to a new era."

Asai, Vivien, Iva, Elena, Xiao and the witch doctor represent the previous era.

Then Oran and Sukob represent this era and the new era.

Although.

They haven't really grown up yet.

For the first time, Olan felt a heavy force pressing on his body, but with it he was still a little confused.

Because he still hasn't understood what he can do for this era.

Oran kneeled on the ground and said to God Iva.

"god!"

"You have countless believers, and I am just one of them."

God Iva: "All gods have countless believers, but they don't really believe in gods. They just believe in the gods in their own hearts."

"Only those who understand the gods, those who follow the will of the gods, and those who walk with the gods."

"That's the true believer."

God Iva's words changed: "You can meet the Creator at the beginning of a new era."

"It seems that this is the choice of fate."

"Olan!"

"Will you be my true believer?"

"Olan, will you come with me?"

Ivar said this because He is such an existence.

He once followed Sheila, the Lord of Dreams, and fulfilled the mission given to Him by the Lord of Dreams.

Oran raised his head, and for the first time he stared at his god so boldly.

Because he wants to see clearly what kind of existence his god is, and he wants to walk with him.

"O great god of desire and alchemy!"

"What is your will? Where does the end of your pursuit lead to?"

The gods under the Gate of Myth raised their hands.

The lights turned into shadows and stood behind Him.

Even His wife, the Golden Queen, stands side by side with her.

“I want to light up the world with light.”

"I want to bring everyone together to the future."

Ivar looked at the Golden Queen aside.

"I want to build a great pantheon and kingdom with my followers."

"In the end, we will go to the unknown end point together. I don't know what the end point will be like, but we will move forward together."

"Hold the lamp high in your hand and follow the figure of the supreme god."

After Oran heard this, he didn't feel the shock of being in the temple when he was a boy, nor the fear of seeing the door of desire when he turned on the light as a young man.

At this moment, what he felt was boundless peace of mind and expectation.

Looking forward to riding on God Iva's big ship and arriving at the unknown destination together with all the fellow travelers.

Although I don’t know where the destination is, but with so many companions moving forward together, I feel that there is nothing to be afraid of.

"God Ivar."

"I am willing to board your eternal ship, hold the light in my hand, and walk with you forever."

The expression of the god's light and shadow cannot be seen, but you can feel that he is very pleased.

He looked at Oran's peaceful and expectant expression, and then turned to look at the distant starry sky.

said suddenly.

"Your prayers are over, my apostle."

"Now!"

"It's time for me to meet my gods!"

The god of Oran is Ivar, and the god of Ivar.

It's Sheila, the master of dreams.

God Iva raised the lantern in his hand, walked out from the door of myth, and headed into the distance.

In Oran's eyes, all the surrounding scenes were slowly dissipating.

He returned to the prayer hall.

Everything in the Kingdom of God dissipates, leaving only the quiet and peace of the world, and only the silence of the night.

But in front of Olan, a flower slowly grew between the stone slabs under the statue.

"The Cup of Desire!"

It was a silver cup of desire, symbolizing the flower of the god of desire and alchemy.

The silver flower cup broke away from the ground in front of Oran, spinning like a dandelion and floating into the sky.

It passed through the window of the temple and floated into the distance.

Toward the clouds, mountains and fog deep in the Thunder Swamp.

Oran stood in the prayer hall, watching the silver flower cup disappear into the night.

"The supreme creator god."

“The origin and end of all, the Creator of all things.”

Oran could faintly see the shadow of the creation god lineage from Iva's body.

Even just the slightest shadow made Oran surge up with infinite yearning.

"What kind of existence is it?"

——

The cup of desire blooms under the sea of ​​clouds in the sky, and the night wind pushes it upward layer by layer, through the layers of clouds and mist.

A large hole opened up in the Cloud Mountain deep in Thunder Swamp, and the moonlight shone down from the hole, bathing the silver flowers.

This is the passage to heaven and the light that leads to the god Iva.

Iva descended through the cloud cave.

He saw the long-awaited city of God descending on the edge of the city.

The silver cup of desire fell under the moonlight and turned into a man wearing a vertical collar robe, a man who looked a bit rigid and not very agile.

The man looked at the city, and even a god like him, who seemed insensitive to the passage of time, felt the vicissitudes of life at this moment.

I feel the weight of the passage of time that will never return.

"The city where the gods descended."

"The city founded by King Jeser."

“The place where the Creator descends, where life and wisdom originate.”

The second generation of wisdom king Jeser, the Prince of the Moon.

A name that once felt like a story, later felt like an epic, a myth.

Until now, even myths are not enough to describe the ancient times.

Ivar walked forward.

In front of the ancient and magnificent city, figures appeared one after another.

There are men, women, and old people.

Although the other party transformed into the form of a god, Ivar could still recognize their former appearance.

Ivar walked up to them and nodded to them.

"The left-hand medicine man."

"The right-hand witch doctor."

"Skull Witch Doctor."

"Torno medicine cat, right leg medicine cat, left leg medicine cat."

The names of the witch doctors are a bit strange, but considering their origins, it is not strange at all.

Ivar knew them. When the witch doctors and the God-created people returned, it was Ivar who drove the sacred boat to take them to the Kingdom of God.

At that time, they followed the Creator to the next era and survived to this era.

Only this time, it was witch doctors who led Ivar to meet the supreme god.

"Ivar."

"The great master of dreams is waiting for you!"

The voices of the witch doctors converged and overlapped, but did not appear chaotic.

The sound echoed in this empty lost country of clouds, but it had a grand feeling.

Ivar's expression changed slightly when he heard the title of Dream Master.

"Lord Sheila still remembers me."

The witch doctor said nothing and just led him into the city.

In the sea of ​​clouds in the distance, "big jellyfish" are wandering in the sky one after another, as if they are diving in the ocean.

As God Iva walked, he looked at this beautiful and dreamy scene.

Reminiscent of the past.

Compared to God Insai, Iva is more looking forward to seeing Sir Sheila.

Yinsai God is too great and too far away.

When He left the Kingdom of Creator God, he saw God Yinsai. What he saw was not a god existing in this world, but an eternal star that transcended everything.

The Creator has never existed in this world. For everyone, he is the beginning of everything and a reflection of dreams.

Invisible, intangible.

Ivar only had awe of God Insai, and was shocked by the existence that was so great that it was unimaginable.

In contrast.

The Lord of Dreams is the god who created him, gave his existence meaning, and made him feel as warm as sunshine.

That was when He was just born. He was a cup of the sun that swallowed up the blood and memories of the Trileaf people. He also swallowed up all the power of the royal blood descendant of the Huosen family, Prince Weis. However, it always stayed at the end. A moment of nightmare.

Sheila, who was not the master of the dream at that time but the messenger of Insai, rescued Ivar.

Ivar was very grateful to her.

"Thanks……"

"Thank you."

The fairy in the dream smiled and said, "We made an agreement, didn't we?"

The goblin just waved his hand slightly, and the door to the dream world opened.

Then Ivar was given his first mission.

"The sacred boat that travels to and from dreams and the dream ferryman who carries memories!"

"I hope you can take my place in the future, shuttle back and forth between dreams, and bring back all the memories that belong to the dream star sea."

In the sea under the night sky, the ethereal aria of the fairies spreads farther and farther.

"The lives are not gone, their memories and their past."

"They will all turn into stars and stay with God forever."

This sentence is really beautiful.

It was so beautiful that even after hundreds of millions of years, Ivar's memory was still fresh.

At this moment, He couldn't help but repeat it again.

"Life is not lost."

"Their memories and past..."

"They will all turn into stars and stay with God forever."

Perhaps it was this sentence that made Ivar travel endlessly between the stars and send all his life dreams to the Kingdom of Creation at the end.

Ivar followed the witch doctors toward the inside, passed through the huge city gate, and came to the street where the prosperity of the Age of Miracles was at its peak.

The two pictures of the prosperity of the past and the end of the present conflict broke out in my mind.

In front of the ancient palace of wisdom, Ivar saw the figure of the master of dreams.

"Lord Sheila!"

Ivar stood in the square under the steps, looking up at the source of dreams and miracles.

He stood still, and after a while he reacted and even lay on the ground, saluting to the other party.

The dream fairy on the steps, the former envoy of Insai, looked at Ivar.

Across the cycle of time, God and His creation meet again.

Although the former creation has become an existence that mortals call gods.

The master of the dream smiled, as bright as the sun, but not too blazing.

"Welcome back."
