In Dire Wolf Hell, the Dire Wolf incarnation gazed toward the Sea Realm in the great river of the Imaginary Sea beyond the Ringed Mountain. His expression was gloomy. "That bastard from the Persepolis God Clan actually miscalculated."
He recalled the past.
Back then, he had also led people into this strange world and discovered that the Three-Cave World was undergoing dimensional ascension. Thus, he led the expedition formed by the wizards of the Southern Witch Capital into this world.
At first, he and the Persepolis God Clan had fought and schemed against each other, and he had achieved impressive results.
But problems later arose. The Persepolis God Clan clearly understood the wizards' personalities. It manifested beside the various wizards in the expedition, tempted them with benefits, and caused the expedition's crew to secretly organize a rebellion against him.
Although he had ultimately suppressed the rebellion, his true body had already been destroyed during it, and his Great Magic had suffered severe damage. Most importantly, that bastard from the Persepolis God Clan possessed a special secret art capable of creating Upper Planes.
The result of that battle had been the birth of the Celestial Realm and Dire Wolf Hell. Together with the half Upper Plane native to this world—the Sea Realm—they formed three Upper Planes.
In other words, the Celestial Realm had indeed been nurtured by the world itself, but it had only possessed an embryonic form. The Persepolis God Clan had used the Great Magic of two Second-Ring Wizards as its foundation to establish the Celestial Realm as it was now, while Dire Wolf Hell relied on his Great Magic.
Yet now, despite the situation being exactly the same, the Persepolis God Clan could not tempt the wizard named Hassan, nor could it tempt the pirate named Henry.
