Reunited with Klein

Ahead lay the magnificent Royal City, behind him the grand Dream of the Creator, and beneath his feet the splendid path formed by the condensation Twilight Twilight. Thus, Luther followed Adam, step by step, toward the "Giant King’s Court."

He felt his heart slowly sinking into the Abyss below.

Once I reach that hellish place, the "Forsaken Land of the Gods," it will be even harder to escape from Adam's grasp. Am I really going to be led before the True Creator...? That guy's condition must be getting worse and worse; I'll Destruction the Aurora Order, drive many believers mad, and even seize control of the Tide...

Also, I wonder how Klein is doing, and whether the Evernight Goddess has gone to rescue him... If he manages to escape from Amon and can't contact me, perhaps he can organize a rescue... He'll probably think of informing the Queen, and then contacting Roselle...

Luther even began to have unrealistic expectations, hoping that Klein could provide him with assistance.

And so, he followed Adam to the projection of the "Giant King’s Court," arriving at the foot of the tallest building. The building itself was a magnificent Tower, with its main entrance exceeding ten meters in height. Its main color was gray-blue, and it was covered with numerous symmetrical, mysterious symbols and patterns.

In the Real World, an exploration team from City of Silver once came here and fought against the Sequence 3 "Silver Knight" guarding the place. According to the "Royal Court Pursuer," this place was once the residence of the "Giant King" and is now the place where the "Dark Angel" Sasrir sleeps.

However, this is just a projection; there is no Sasrir present inside.

Luther stared at the dark hole in the gate.

Klein watched the City of Silver team explore the "Giant King’s Court" the whole time. He seemed to have some guesses about the holes in the gate, and according to him, the key to open the gate was likely one of the artifacts in "Vice Admiral Iceberg" Edwina's collection.

However, the Aurora Order followers did not use the key when entering the "Forsaken Land of the Gods"... Perhaps the key served another purpose, not for entry, but for opening the exit door...

As he pondered these things, he saw Adam walk to the door and place his hand on it. With a heavy, hesitant sound, He slowly pushed the door open and said to those inside:

"I brought him."

Who is this guy talking to?

Luther thought to himself.

He couldn't help but look towards the door, only to find that inside... there was an impenetrable darkness.

"!!"

The next instant, he suddenly felt a chill run through his body. He didn't know if it came from the other side of the door, from the endless sky, or from the ends of the earth, but a malicious and crazed gaze suddenly pierced him and landed on him.

The intense hostility was almost tangible, as if it wanted to tear him apart and engulf him!

This gaze... could it be...?

Luther suddenly raised his head, meeting the gaze of the person in the eye without fear, a look of disdain in his eyes.

"The True Creator, right?"

He said. Before Luther could react further, Adam had already led him across the door and onto the other side.

In an instant, the world spun, illusion and reality Distortion, as if even the Spirituality was being torn apart.

Once everything was clear, Luther looked around and found himself on a beach bathed in the glow of Twilight. The Sand and stones here had an unusual black hue, and the deep blue tide was reflected in the orange-red light, creating a surface that was almost blackish-blue.

The unreality of the Dream vanished, Luther clearly realized that he had returned to reality.

But the reality here is unlike anything I've experienced before.

A chaotic atmosphere permeated the surrounding air, and in the depths of endless darkness, a terrifying force seemed to linger. Looking up at the sky, streaks of lightning occasionally flashed, but otherwise, there was only dense darkness.

The Spirit World, which had always been perceptible, had vanished. It wasn't isolated by some rule, but rather seemed to have been suppressed at a fundamental level, stripped away by the reality of this place... In other words, all abilities that required the assistance of the Spirit World were no longer possible...

Without a doubt, this is the so-called "Forsaken Land of the Gods".

Luther back, across the Sea stood a mountain bathed in the glow of Twilight, and atop the mountain stood the Royal City, a complex of Tower, Palace, and walls.

The true "Giant King’s Court".

Beside him, Adam also looked up at the Palace.

His gaze seemed to linger on the tallest tower. "In that tower slumbers the Dark Angel, Sasrir."

Luther said to Him.

Adam looked away, glanced at him, and although he didn't speak, his expression seemed to say, "I know."

"You were just speaking to the 'True Creator.' When you opened the door, did that thing attract its attention?"

Seeing that the other party did not respond, Luther continued to ask.

It seems the True Creator indeed possesses immense power on this continent, at least casting His gaze upon these crucial checkpoints. But if that's the case, why didn't He directly transform the people of City of Silver, Degeneration them into His followers...?

Adam did not answer him, but instead led him toward the Royal Court.

Strange light and shadow enveloped the two of them. Luther felt as if he had jumped between illusion and reality, and somehow he had already crossed the Royal Court and arrived at the border of the mythical kingdom.

Ahead lay the true Forsaken Land of the Gods, where vast stretches of darkness met the eye.

No, there was still light in some direction... It was a camp, its edges illuminated by lanterns covered with animal skins. Several tall guards, dressed in animal skin coats, patrolled the area.

That should be the advance camp of the City of Silver exploration team...

Luther gazed at the camp, yet felt no urge to send a message. Deeper into the continent, darkness surged in from all directions. Golden halos emanated from Adam, dispelling the darkness and illuminating the desolate wasteland.

Luther continued walking, the scenery before him monotonous: wasteland, mountains, withered grass, pebbles, rolling hills...

After an unknown amount of time, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared ahead.

The light grew larger and larger, appearing to be a lamp, and beside the lamp were two figures.

As they drew closer, the outlines of the two figures gradually became clearer.

It's you!

When Luther saw who the two people were, his eyes widened and he exclaimed in surprise.

It turned out that the two figures were none other than Klein, who had separated from George III before the battle, and Amon, who had captured him.

"Luther, it's actually you?"

Klein was equally astonished when he saw Luther. He looked at Luther, then at the blond priest walking in front of Luther and Amon beside him, opened his mouth, and finally showed a strange expression on his face.

"I was waiting for you to save me, how come you..."

After parting ways in Backlund, the two met again in this Forsaken Land of the Gods.
