The one chosen by fate, the protagonist of the world

Emperor Sero of the Fetrola Magic Empire declared the abolition of the Church of the Goddess of Magic from its status as the state religion, placing it on par with other churches, and changing the empire's name to the Fetrola Empire.

This action was actually an attempt to reclaim imperial power from divine authority by taking advantage of the decline in the influence of the Church of the Goddess of Magic Goddess of Magic her deposition.

The Church of the Goddess of Magic was naturally dissatisfied and launched a holy war throughout the Fetrola Empire, calling on Mage in the Prime Material Plane to overthrow Sero's throne and replace him with someone else as emperor.

Strangely, very few Mage responded to the Church of the Goddess of Magic. Most Mage Association didn't even bother with the church, which angered the Pope of the Church of the Goddess of Magic, who cursed them as traitors.

He wasn't wrong to criticize. For Mage who use magic to study the truths of the world, the fact that there was a God of Magic above them was what made them uncomfortable.

In the past, with the Goddess of Magic above them, who could control them, they naturally dared not reveal their abilities.

Now that the Goddess of Magic has met with misfortune, the ambitions of the Mage are laid bare. Some Mage have even begun searching for the Goddess of Magic's whereabouts, hoping to erase this Goddess of Magic from their sight.

Magic doesn't need gods!

It is only natural.

The Church of Magic did not enjoy the support of the majority of Mage. Among the powerful Mage within the Church of Magic, several were secretly summoned by the Goddess of Magic Kalisi, leaving the church with insufficient strength.

Under the combined attack of Emperor Sero and a host of Legendary and imperial legions.

The Church of the Goddess of Magic suffered a crushing defeat.

Pope Aliwusi had no choice but to reluctantly acknowledge that the emperor's power was superior to divine authority.

In his view, as long as the goddess returns to the Divine Kingdom, the empire will sooner or later return to the rule of the church.

The third year of Twilight of the Gods.

The first fallen god has appeared.

This unfortunate deity is Rilor, the God of the Wilderness, and a subordinate god of Elf Greater God Seweier.

The God of the Wilderness, Rilor, cherishes freedom and unrestraint.

Just two years after heeding the advice of the Elf God Seweier, he could no longer bear the loneliness and went down to the mortal realm, into the wilderness, and was born in the form of Saint.

Unsurprisingly, he was discovered.

A team of Legendary powerhouses from various countries across the continent began plotting to hunt him down, and they actually succeeded.

One of the Legendary powerhouses, thanks to this Wilderness Divine Spark, became the new God of the Wilderness.

This news instantly shocked the entire world and intensified the ambitions of countless powerful individuals.

Gods can indeed be killed, and Authority can be taken away.

In an instant.

Ambitious Legendary figures have increased in number. Not only are the powerful beings of the Prime Material World searching for these Saint- like gods, but a large number of Legendary from other worlds are also seeking them.

This made the hidden gods grit their teeth in hatred for the deceased God of the Wilderness, Rilor.

Not only did they bring about their own demise, but they also harmed all the gods.

Twilight of the Gods, Year 5.

Three more gods were found, killed, and had their Divine Spark taken away.

The powerful beings throughout the Prime Material Plane became fanatical, searching even more fervently for the traces of the gods.

However, since then...

No more gods were ever found.

The lessons learned from the mistakes of many of their peers have taught even the once arrogant and haughty gods to be patient and restrained.

Anyway, as long as you persist for ten years, you can get everything back.

Then, we'll settle accounts for all those who have insulted them.

Time just slipped away like that.

Until the final year of Twilight of the Gods.

This year.

Youlun has finally taken the most crucial step in the Path of Mortals he pioneered.

At this moment, when he unleashed the full power of this path, even Aoweiliya was amazed by the vastness of this power.

"It's an unbelievable, amazing power, Youlun, you actually took this step."

It's a pity.

This power is just pure power; it doesn't extend lifespan.

Furthermore, those who walk this path will no longer possess the power of Transcendent Element, will be isolated from all Transcendent professions, will be completely cut off from immortality, and will forever Longevity just mortals.

but.

Youlun didn't care about any of that.

Anyway, he can be reborn.

This path, which Youlun calls the "Path of the Monarch," is suitable for all ordinary people without Transcendent talent.

Of course, those with Transcendent talent can also cultivate; the threshold is extremely low.

However, achieving something like Youlun's level is probably as difficult as becoming a god.

It has a low entry barrier, a high ceiling, and places greater emphasis on potential in terms of willpower.

Also in that year.

A Legendary squad from another world has found God of Combat and Murder Lanuodesi, hidden in a wilderness of the Hast Duchy.

A tremendous battle broke out between the two sides.

In an instant, the entire Wilderness of Despair was shattered, and the people of the Hast Duchy trembled in fear.

God of Combat and Murder Lanuodesi, is Greater God whose strength is second only to the six Greater God among the gods.

It was quite a coincidence.

Lanuodesi has been hiding himself during this time.

He and his loyal followers endured ten arduous years as wilderness Hunter in the Wilderness of Despair of the Hast Duchy.

Until the ten-year mark was approaching.

One day.

One of Lanuodesi's loyal followers, summoned from the Void and known as the Wilderness Gunslinger, suddenly vanished into the Wilderness of Despair.

This made Lanuodesi feel very uneasy.

really.

the next day.

Several of his Legendary followers who guarded him died of poisoning, and his Saint body was also corrupted.

Immediately afterwards.

He then saw his former loyal followers standing among a group of unfamiliar, powerful Legendary, looking at him with greedy eyes.

"Gentlemen, this is the God of Combat and Murder."

"Kill Him, and we can divide His Authority among ourselves; everyone will have the opportunity to become a god."

It is well known that some powerful Authority can be divided.

Combat and hunting are undoubtedly among them.

This time.

A battle to the death has begun.

Even weakened by the contaminated potion, the powerful God of Combat and Murder remains terrifyingly strong.

Besieged by these unfamiliar and powerful Legendary.

Lanuodesi launched a furious counterattack, and in the end, both sides perished.

A group of Legendary powerhouses from other worlds perished in the wilderness, while Lanuodesi, his Saint body shattered, also fell in a low, dense forest.

And within this dense forest.

Just then, a mortal man with a gloomy face rode by on horseback.

He was that serf boy who refused to accept an ordinary life.

then.

After the victory in the war against the Abyss.

He did not return to his homeland to continue being a serf, but instead was taken in by the Hast Duchy as a refugee.

After that, everything went smoothly for him, as if the world revolved around him.

He rose from refugee to become the head of a gang in Hast Fortress, engaging in shady activities such as human trafficking and running casinos.

They have never been investigated or punished over the years.
