Judgment

On the sea, the tall female Giant, whose body was half-exposed, lowered her head and spoke in a sorrowful voice.

"I know the sins I have committed, Great Creator."

"I helped that serpent from the darkness devour the once perfect moon, destroying the perfection of heaven and earth, and violating the laws of the world."

"I stirred up giant waves, plunging into the starry sky, letting endless seawater spill onto the continents, causing all living beings to suffer from the sea."

"I defied the Law of Tides, causing them to flow against their natural course, thus betraying my original intentions."

"I beg for your punishment."

She slowly knelt on the seabed, a movement that stirred up a vast expanse of waves, one after another, surging in all directions.

She was not far from the coast, and this wave swept directly over a part of the coastal land.

In the sky.

Jiang Yuu stood amidst the radiance, in the still-lingering rain and waves, looking down at the female Wild Giant bowing her head in repentance, and spoke with a tone of regret.

"Tyrande, I had high hopes for you."

"You are the first person to complete the task I assigned you, and the first intelligent being in countless years to be able to wield the laws on your own."

"Of all the Wild Giant, you are the most outstanding one."

"You make the tides appear, you make the waves surge, you make the calm ocean churn. If you haven't committed a grave crime, in the future, I even want you to rule the entire Inner Ring Sea."

"The power of the tides, cyclical and ever-flowing, is enough to make Greater God. But now, you are no longer Greater God."

"What a pity, Tyrande. You helped that dark creature devour the moon, causing it to have its phases from that moment on."

"The Law of the Moon have thus changed, and it no longer commands the stars, rules the night sky, or sits atop all laws like the Sun."

You have let me down.

The female Wild Giant, kneeling on the seabed with only her upper body above the water, whispered in a tearful voice.

"I'm sorry, great Creator."

"I know helping that little snake will disappoint you, I know the giant waves stirred up by the tides shouldn't have invaded the starry sky. But I hope even more that the remaining members of my people can continue to survive in the Land of Darkness."

Even in darkness, I think they need the Radiance.

"Creator, I beg you, do not punish my people, and let Radiance descend upon the Dark Continent."

"I will bear all the sins myself."

After praying, Tyrande bowed his head deeply, kneeling in the ocean, awaiting the punishment of the great Creator.

Above the sea in the sky.

A crescent moon was reflected on the sea.

"The moon rises over the sea, but it will never be full again."

Jiang Yuu stood in mid-air, her back to the endless moonlight, as if she were standing in the moon itself.

He looked down at the female Wild Giant on the sea, listened to her confession and plea, and pondered for a moment.

"Tyrande, your kindness has shown me the admirable qualities of the Wild Giant; you have no greed or ambition."

"I am willing to show mercy to such a person."

"Since you're willing to confess and take responsibility for their sins, then so be it."

"I will not punish those Wild Giant who fled to the Dark Continent, nor will I reclaim that portion of the Bright Moon."

Upon hearing the Creator speak in this way, Tyrande was overjoyed and took the opportunity to express his gratitude.

The voice of the Creator resounded once more between heaven and earth.

"Now, I will pronounce your punishment."

"The first penalty is that you will be held responsible for the waxing and waning of the moon in the sky."

"Since your tides so desire to approach the moon, then every full moon, urge the tides to push them toward the bright moon."

From that time on, the moon and the tides became inseparable.

"The second punishment is that you may only set foot on the mainland during a full moon; at other times, you must remain in the shallow sea forever."

"The third punishment is that your actions have harmed the moon. When the moon goddess is born, you will need to make amends to her."

"As for what the compensation will be, that's up to her to decide."

"As my final punishment, I will make you kneel in these shallow seas for ten thousand years, as a warning to all living beings."

Are you satisfied with this verdict?

Four punishments were pronounced by Jiang Yuu and condemned to live between heaven and earth.

Tyrande sincerely admitted his mistake.

"I Tyrande your judgment, Creator."

This ruling, compared to those of Mitier, Geruidi, and An Bi in the past, can be considered merciful.

"Very well, the ruling takes effect immediately."

The mighty Creator nodded slightly.

Instantly.

The four rulings were like four Illusion chains, binding Tyrande before disappearing.

"And, Tyrande, you're right, the Dark Continent shouldn't just be endless darkness; it should have light."

After saying that.

Ignoring Tyrande's slightly surprised look, Jiang Yuu You looked towards the Inner Ring Sea, through the Sea of Mist, towards the endless Dark Continent, and stared indifferently at the Dark Serpent was fleeing in a hurry, its belly glowing.

"Black Dragon that's gnawing on the moon, that's interesting. Let me see just how far you can go."

The other side of the world, the dark Deep Sea.

The moment the Creator descended, the Dark Serpent Braiduk felt its overwhelming aura of majesty.

That smell almost scared him to death.

That towering, radiant, and majestic figure was a million times more imposing than his father, Gutel.

This gave him no time to rest; he fled at breakneck speed, swimming toward the Isle of Shadows.

Throughout the swim, he felt a sense of heaviness, as if someone was watching him from behind.

This made him swim even faster.

He swam the journey that would normally take a year in just six months.

then.

He climbed onto the island of the Shadow Kingdom, attempting to awaken the Shadow Wild Giant, Gutel.

"Father, Father."

"I succeeded. I brought back fragments of the ' Sun '."

The call of Braiduk echoed across the great island, resounding beside Gutel.

But Gutel was fast asleep, and the Thunder snores of the several Wild Giant drowned out his calls.

This left Braiduk extremely anxious.

"Good heavens, how can Father sleep so soundly!"

He knew he couldn't wait any longer, because the constant feeling of being watched from behind was making him extremely anxious.

In a moment of desperation.

With a heavy heart, he bit down hard on Gutel's thigh, his long, sharp teeth sinking deep into Gutel's flesh.

"Hiss!"

Startled awake by the pain, Gutel let out a cry and instinctively flung Braiduk off his thigh, shouting angrily.

"It's you, Braiduk! Why did you bite me?"

"Father, I couldn't wake you, so I had to resort to this method."

The Dark Serpent crawled back and said, looking very aggrieved.

"Okay, I forgive you."

Gutel's face stiffened, his eyes becoming completely clear.

Then.

He then saw the giant snake's round, glowing body.

He spoke incredulously.

"You... success?!"
