"City of Extreme Evil" had finally come to an end.
As usual, let me wrap up this volume. If you don't want to read it, feel free to skip it~~ (doge).
This volume was originally supposed to end at five or six hundred thousand words, but before I knew it, it had reached nearly seven hundred and fifty thousand words, making it the longest volume so far.
It wasn't that Sanjiu wanted to pad the word count. It was just that there was truly too much to write in this volume.
Entering the Human Circle, Nightfall's reunion, destroying Divine Authority, returning to Great Xia, training new recruits, the first descent of the Red Moon, Mask's fall, Shangxie's destruction of the world, the fall of the Takama-ga-hara gods, the descent of the Heavenly Court... Every part seemed unrelated, yet they were all linked together. Under the schemes of the God of Time and the Great Xia Gods, they brought about the destruction of Takama-ga-hara.
To simplify it, Sanjiu could summarize the true core of this volume in two words: pioneers and inheritance.
First, let's talk about the first one: pioneers.
So far, the most representative quality of Slaying Gods had been the Night Watchmen's sacrifice and protection. After depicting that for two consecutive volumes, Sanjiu wanted to use the different backdrop of the Human Circle to portray something different.
A large portion of this volume took place in the Human Circle, and the Human Circle's story was, in essence, a process of awakening, resistance, sacrifice, and victory.
Yurina Kurotetsu, Amamiya Haruki, and the Yurina siblings were all awakeners who had grown up beneath Divine Authority. They were also pioneers who personally destroyed the old era and led the beings of the Human Circle into a new age.
