Chapter 1282: Great Demon Deity

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

After thinking about it carefully, Bradlor broke out in a cold sweat, and it covered his forehead. Hence, he finally raised his head, and nonchalantly said, “We’re not very sure which era this prophecy originated in, but as far as I know, this prophecy should have appeared after we overcame a huge crisis brought about by the Ocean Dynasty after the establishment of the kingdom. It should be when the Ocean Dynasty suddenly got destroyed and the great ocean war began.”

While Bradlor was speaking, he paced back and forth in front of the bookshelves to search for a book before finally stopping at an area that was marked as belonging to a certain era. The time period was designated clearly by years; by comparison using the chronology of the Ocean Dynasty, it should have been just before the start of the Great Ocean War.

Lin Li walked towards Bradlor and looked at the eras labeled on the shelf. He had already found out about the origin of the great demon deity, Mosari, as well as the estimated era during which the Immortal King barged into the 99th level of the deep abyss to severely injure Mosari. Hence, he compared the information he had to the era stated on the bookshelves, only to discover that there seemed to be an overlap between the two.

“Alright, let’s start checking from here, then.” Lin Li immediately waved his hand, and the information in the notes on the bookshelf immediately flew over. The pages of each notebook that flew towards him began flipping rapidly as if they were being blown by the wind. In a few seconds, the pages of a book were flipped through..

If it were anyone else, they might not be able to see anything at all, but Lin Li had extraordinary mental strength that was far greater than that of the people around him. Hence, he basically didn’t have to use his naked eye to read the information. Instead, he managed to rapidly flip through the pages by adding his mental strength.

The books of notes flew towards Lin Li one after another, and were tossed to the side almost immediately afterwards. The entire process was almost seamless. Meanwhile, Bradlor stood rooted to the ground like a fool, and watched Lin Li flip through the book in an incredible manner while feeling worried. He wondered, Can he really find the information he needs in such a manner?

All of a sudden, a book with information stopped in front of Lin Li, and the speed of flipping was clearly much slower than with the previous ones. Seeing this, Bradlor immediately saw some hope, and he frantically stepped forth to carefully ask, “How is it going, President Felic? Have you found something useful?”

However, Lin Li wasn’t in the mood to answer Bradlor’s question as he simply focused on reading the information in front of him. It was a record of the information regarding the war between the Gilded Kingdom and the Ocean Dynasty back then. At that time, although the Gilded Kingdom had already accumulated significant power and strength, they were still like children against giants in the face of the Ocean Dynasty, which had ruled the Endless Ocean for countless years.

During that war, the fleet of Gilded Kingdom was simply fragile as the islands it occupied were destroyed one by one, while countless civilians were reduced to slaves of the Sea Clans. In the end, only Four Seasons Island and a few surrounding islands were left within the territory of the Gilded Kingdom. They were even surrounded by a million troops of the Ocean Dynasty that put them on the verge of annihilation.

However, at that juncture, the powerful Ocean Dynasty suddenly underwent a huge change which caused the royal family of the dynasty to lose their massive power that they relied on to rule the Endless Ocean almost overnight. According to the Sea Clans, the royal family of the Ocean Dynasty had fallen out of favor with the Sea God, but based on the specific era of the incident according to the information, Lin Li thought of the great demon deity, Mosari.

The time interval between the occurrence of the massive change in the Ocean Dynasty and the Immortal King’s powerful attack on Mosari did not seem to be that long. Hence, Lin Li thought it was reasonable to suspect that the massive change that caused the Ocean Dynasty to crumble might have something to do with the great demon deity, Mosari.

With the massive change in the Ocean Dynasty, the overlord Sea Clans of the ocean eagerly divided the resources and wealth of the Ocean Dynasty among themselves, thus forgetting about the Gilded Kingdom, and allowing the latter to escape a disaster.

The subsequent Great Ocean War gave the Gilded Kingdom an opportunity to develop and recover. By the end of the war, the Gilded Kingdom’s power had already grown to become on par with and no weaker than the rest of the Sea Clans. By this time, the seven overlord Sea Clans stopped attacking the Gilded Kingdom due to their mutual restraint. Instead, they began trying to get closer to the Gilded Kingdom.

However, it wasn’t stated clearly in the records what exactly the power that saved the Gilded Kingdom was. Lin Li wasn’t sure if the great demon deity Mosari was the one who did it, either.

At that time, the great demon deity Mosari had just suffered a debilitating blow from the Immortal King, and to put it bluntly, he could barely save himself. How could he possibly have been able to save the Gilded Kingdom? Besides, Mosari wasn’t a saint of the Gilded Kingdom, and its survival had nothing to do with him.

After Lin Li had read that information, the book was tossed to the side immediately, and soon several more came flying past Lin Li’s eyes rapidly. More than 10 books later, a yellowed scroll made of animal hide finally stopped in front of Lin Li again.

It wasn’t an official historical record of the Gilded Kingdom, but the private notes written by a certain person. However, in those notes, Lin Li finally saw the prophecy that Bradlor had been talking about.

“The kingdom will live on because of demons, but it will also be destroyed by demons. When will our suffering end!?

“Will that mage from the faraway mainland be our savior?

“No, it hasn’t ended yet. On this exact same day 1,000 years from now, the kingdom will once again face a great crisis. But, who else will there be to save us!?”

The perpetuation of the existence of the kingdom due to the demons seemed to be the explanation for the Gilded Kingdom’s survival after that crisis that left them on the verge of annihilation. However, why would the great demon deity Mosari help the Gilded Kingdom? That made Lin Li think of a possibility—a deal with the demons.

One of the Abyssal Demons’ favorite activities was to tempt others into trading their souls with them, which was a usual condition, in exchange for other benefits. For example, Connoris, who was called a Soul Trader at first, often dealt in trades that involved the acquisition of the souls of others.

In Anril, there were people trading with demons every single day, but at the same time, there would also be people having their souls taken away by demons. Most of the heretics who were sanctioned at the Brilliance Shrine’s Court of Heresy were those who traded their souls with the demons. However, the Brilliance Shrine could only have jurisdiction over the Ledin Kingdom. In places like the Felan Kingdom where no one gave a hoot about the Brilliance Shrine, the Court of Heresy would not be able to extend their authority to sanction the heretics.

Through this information, Lin Li was already 80% certain that someone from the Gilded Kingdom had made a deal with the great demon deity Mosari. However, there was another thing that made Lin Li bewildered. Given Mosari’s identity as a great demon deity, it didn’t seem reasonable for him to engage in soul trade like ordinary demons do.

Besides, if his guesses were valid, did the great demon deity Mosari contribute so much power to help the Gilded Kingdom deal with the powerful Ocean Dynasty merely for the sake of a soul? That was obviously not an equal trade-off for demons, so it seemed impossible that Mosari would allow himself to get the shorter end of the stick in this deal.

Besides, the Immortal King had struck Mosari with a severe blow at that time, so Mosari should have been urgently trying to recover his power. A mere soul would not help with his injury at all. Even if it was the soul of a Sanctuary powerhouse, it probably wouldn’t be worth Mosari’s effort and put in so much power for the sake of saving the Gilded Kingdom.

In that case, the deal that someone from the Gilded Kingdom had made with Mosari was probably far more complicated than a simple soul trade. The price that the Gilded Kingdom had to pay might be smaller than the extermination of the entire kingdom, but it surely wouldn’t be too far off.

More importantly, demons would never engage in fair trade, and there would often be plenty of traps in the contracts so that the other party entering the contract would have to pay more than what they offered. Of course, the people of the Gilded Kingdom might also have been aware of such tricky hidden clauses, and merely had no other choice but to accept it, because they were facing a crisis that would destroy the kingdom.

Since they had survived the crisis at that time, it was naturally time for the Gilded Kingdom and Mosari to settle the scores and fulfill the deal. At this juncture, the Gilded Kingdom received aid from a stronger external force that suppressed Mosari. Lin Li associated the external force with the Immortal King as soon as it came to mind. Although Geresco also had the same power to seal Mosari, it wouldn’t make sense chronologically.

However, deep down, Lin Li had a strong feeling that there seemed to be some kind of connection between the Immortal King and Geresco that he couldn’t quite put a finger on. He felt so especially when he was greeted by Geresco, and not the Immortal King, in the tower where countless gods were sealed when he went to the Cursed Island again.

Of course, Lin Li knew that it was not the time to consider the relationship between the Immortal King and Geresco now, so he put aside those doubts for the time being, and continued to check the records of the Gilded Kingdom.

Indeed, Lin Li soon found another account of a disaster in the ancient notes of the Gilded Kingdom. Soon after the destruction of the Ocean Dynasty, the Gilded Kingdom faced a horrifying plague, even though they had just started recovering. During that plague, a large number of citizens died, and the prosperous land became barren. Despite the strict control of the kingdom, they couldn’t contain the spread of the plague.

Furthermore, the author of the notes wrote a clue stating that all the people who died in the plague soon lost their souls. Following this clue, the Gilded Kingdom and the Illuminati paid a huge price to find the great demon deity Mosari. Of course, they did not know of Mosari’s true identity at that time, and merely thought that he was an extremely terrifying Abyssal Demon.

When the Gilded Kingdom and the Illuminati were at a loss for what to do with Mosari, a mage from Anril appeared. With the help of this mage from Anril, the Gilded Kingdom and the Illuminati cast their nets to seal the Abyssal Demon that caused the plague to break out in the kingdom under the center of Four Seasons Island. Afterwards, under the guidance of that mage, Hopra Square was built for the purpose of suppressing Mosari together with the Giant Divine Soldiers whose strength was at the Sanctuary-realm.

Immediately afterwards, it was mentioned in the notes that the mage from Anril became friends with the founding Saint Aquilo of the Illuminati. In fact, the mage was more like Aquilo’s mentor as he gave him guidance in various fields of knowledge. Afterwards, in a few short years, the incident on the Cursed Island occurred, and the mage vanished since then, while Aquilo fell.

There were some overlaps between that data and the records in the Illuminati’s canon. At this point, Lin Li was basically certain that the mage from Anril should be the Immortal King, who had sealed the Ancient God of Light under the Cursed Island.

In the notes, the author mentioned that the mage from Anril once said to the people of the Gilded Kingdom and the Illuminati that the seal that suppressed the great demon deity, Mosari, was not a permanent solution that could get rid of this huge trouble for them once and for all. At the end of the notes, he even said that he hoped that a younger version of himself could appear here in time in the future.

Those words made the people of the Gilded Kingdom and the Illuminati rather confused. In fact, the vast majority of people even thought that they had misheard something. The author of the notes had written down that strange statement together with the prophecy about the current disaster faced by the Gilded Kingdom.

It wasn’t Lin Li’s first time seeing those strange words, because he had seen a similar statement regarding the return of another version of himself left behind by the Immortal King in the legends of the Cursed Island.

However, Lin Li really didn’t think that the “other version” of the Immortal King was referring to himself, because he was just an outsider who had transmigrated from another world. Instead of believing that he was the other version of the Immortal King, Lin Li was more inclined towards the possibility that the Immortal King was referring to Geresco. After all, they were both from Anril, and similarly possessed incredible talent and achievements that ordinary people could not easily have.

Afterwards, Lin Li took a look at the back of the notes to see that the author had deliberately left clues to his descendants regarding this prophecy. He said that his descendants could look for a note that was left behind by the mage from the mainland once that disaster he had predicted struck the kingdom. He also suggested that the notes of the mage from the mainland could contain a solution to help the kingdom survive the disaster.

Something left behind by the Immortal King? Regardless of whether it could be used to deal with Mosari or not, Lin Li was extremely attracted to it.

Hence, after putting aside the notes, Lin Li immediately searched for the thing left behind by the Immortal King in the vast sea of information among the records. Fortunately, Lin Li had a significant understanding of the Immortal King’s aura, which allowed him to quickly find a thin book with notes bearing the aura of the Immortal King soon after he searched with his mental strength.

The book contained only over 10 pages of notes written on the hide of some kind of marine magical beast. The densely packed words were written in Titan Print, and covered almost every inch of each page. However, they shared one common characteristic: they were all information about a certain Divine-Smith-level mageweath.
