The terrifying Pale God: humanity of the new era still knew far too little about the age of myth
The gates of the imperial city of the Aodelan Empire were already packed with people, with crowds everywhere.
Not only the middle class, but even the beggars who couldn't get enough to eat and were kneeling to beg for food, and even the ship slaves who took the opportunity to slack off while their masters went to admire the Pale God, all set their sights on the gates of the imperial city.
The Pale God, who has been famous in the Southern Continent for four years, is about to appear before everyone's eyes, and everyone's hearts are burning with anticipation.
Even though his convoy looked shabby and lacked prestige, and even though the crowd was somewhat disappointed, the scene was still filled with boundless anticipation when the final identity was revealed.
And then Miles XIV began to speak.
Finally, the simple carriage slowly came to a stop at the gate of the imperial city.
Amidst the anticipation of everyone, a pair of delicate hands lifted the carriage curtain, and then an extremely beautiful woman stepped out.
Upon seeing this woman's face, almost everyone finally understood why the Pale God was hailed as the most perfect deity.
Because of his extremely beautiful appearance, he was truly so beautiful that it was impossible to tell whether he was male or female!
The public's expectations have been almost completely met.
Although this Pale God looked no different from a normal person, he was so exquisitely beautiful that he did not disappoint everyone's expectations!
" Pale God, it turns out, is a woman!"
"She's so beautiful... I want to pursue her!"
Putting everything else aside, even Miles XIV, a man with countless women under his belt, felt as if he had fallen in love on the spot... until he saw the woman he considered a Pale God, step out of the carriage, only to turn around and respectfully pull back the curtain...
The hearts of everyone present pounded; the excitement they had just felt was now replaced by intense tension.
The enthusiastic noise grew even more intense.
"So... so even someone as perfect as him isn't that Pale God?"
"Damn it, that Pale God actually has such a perfect and beautiful woman!"
The clamor in the street grew increasingly heated. The crowd, already excited by Elizabeth's exquisite face as she stepped out of the carriage, became even more excited. Endless anticipation, tinged with envy, once again focused on the simple carriage. Finally, a voice, truly emanating from the Pale God, slowly resounded...
"Ah... this lively atmosphere reminds me of my meeting with Emperor Yalian III of the Boya Empire... but today is different from the past. Your blood is tainted with the stench of decay, it's nauseating!"
As a pure white, perfect foot, with toes as white as jade, slowly emerged from the carriage, a melodious, heavenly voice rang out.
Even if one cannot understand the language of the celestial music, and even if one only sees a pure white foot, when a divine body whose life level truly surpasses the entire world appears, almost everything in the world will instantly condense for it!
The once bustling entrance to the imperial city of the Aodelan Empire was now eerily silent.
Everyone's attention was drawn to the ethereal sound, and all eyes were fixed on the pale foot that had just emerged...
Seeing just this little bit is enough to make one understand what pure perfection truly means!
Compared to her, Elizabeth's exquisite face, which had just dismounted from the carriage, paled in comparison to a pure white foot and a voice as melodious as celestial music.
Everyone felt they could no longer take their eyes off that perfect body.
Finally, with the emergence of those pale feet, a cascade of silky white hair, like a silver waterfall, and a slender, perfect body emerged from the carriage.
A beautiful, perfect face, so exquisite that even the most sophisticated words in the Southern Continent could hardly describe it, was displayed alongside his slender figure and a head full of silver-white hair.
A slender, pale, and perfectly proportioned humanoid creature, yet exuding a chilling and inhuman grotesque aura, appeared before the thousands.
In just a moment, everyone knew what... was a god!
The entire gate of the imperial city was now completely silent.
Whether they were well-informed dignitaries, beggars on the street, or ship slaves unaware of the history of the Southern Continent or Norton's identity, all were captivated by his tall, perfect, and pale figure and face.
As for the fourth and Fifth-Generation Vampire standing atop the Empire State Building, looking this way?
They were already kneeling on the ground, their spirits on the verge of complete collapse!
They, these monstrous trash, were not worthy to even look at such a supreme level of life, nor could they possibly bear the boundless grandeur revealed by that level of life.
Norton's body seemed to unconsciously emanate an aura of divine power.
This feeling is quite similar to the terrifying sensation that Adam felt when he first encountered the corpse of the god, an sensation that unconsciously drew his mind in and made it difficult for him to extricate himself.
What Adam saw back then was the sealed corpse of the god, but what the Aodelan Empire sees now is the living corpse of the god.
This left everyone speechless for a time.
But this is just the beginning.
At first glance, the pale, slender humanoid monster did indeed appear holy and perfect, capable of captivating one's gaze and drawing all attention.
However, the longer one gazes upon it, the more intense the inhuman and bizarre feeling emanating from the Pale God becomes. After perceiving its holiness and perfection, it begins to transform into a chilling strangeness, and this eerie feeling intensifies until it even frightens a person to the point of mental confusion.
Fortunately, Abraham spoke up at the right moment, breaking the silence and bringing the crowd back to their senses.
"Your Highness Miles XIV, my King has arrived. It is time to escort him to the palace and arrange his accommodations!"
As Abraham spoke, his brows furrowed as he looked at the crowd before him, his nose slightly wrinkled, his gaze filled with astonishment.
I never imagined that the quality of human blood in the imperial city had become so poor!
Abraham's words jolted Miles XIV awake, and his dazed eyes snapped open.
Then, endless fear and dread filled my heart.
Such a terrifying monster almost completely bewitched me with just one glance; this Pale God truly seemed like God... both sacred and terrifying!
Even though his mind had returned to normal, the intense shock, the chilling fear, and the dark gaze of the Pale God Norton upon him still made it difficult for him to form words.
"Ah... ah... ah... ah, yes! I have already ordered my father to prepare lodgings, please come to the Palace of the Pale God!"
Surprisingly, no one laughed at his incoherent words.
Because everyone was terrified along with him, they didn't even understand what he was saying.
The street, which had just been filled with mockery and noise, was now eerily silent. Even though the crowd had come to their senses, no one dared to utter a sound. An inexplicable sense of terror swept over them, suppressing any movement that might attract the attention of that terrifying, Pale God.
Fortunately, the program eventually started running, and everyone carried out their work cautiously and with a sense of unease, in order to proceed with the overall process in an orderly manner.
Now everyone finally understands why that Pale God's procession was so simple.
All because it itself already represents true... myth!
As the procession carrying the Pale God slowly made its way towards the palace, the members of various countries, who had been shocked and terrified, finally recovered and hurriedly sent people back to their own countries overnight.
This Pale God's dignity was truly terrifying, on a completely different level from their previous plans and conjectures!
All plans need to be redesigned to take into account the intensity of this Pale God.
However, it cannot be denied that the arrival of mythical creatures, which so vividly demonstrate what mythology is all about, has actually made the national situation several degrees more tense than before.
The Aodelan Empire's policy of offering half of its ruling power to the Pale God, coupled with the terrifying Existence Level the Pale God is now displaying, has become the lever that is overturning the balance of power among the nations of the Southern Continent!
For the first time, humanity in the new era truly witnessed the magnificence of a mythical creature that would end the age of mythology, and finally made them realize...
The mythical creatures of the past are not simply eliminated by the progress of the times, as they imagined.
