Chapter 228: Afterword

Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Pranav

Emordilorcan’s slain head transformed into a pitch-black rock and had started to decay. The other portions encased in eternal ice were too dangerous to even me, so I could only leave his body here.

The nightmarish stone giant finally collapsed, and what came along after was a furious wave of the Elemental Tide; it was wailing, it was singing.

“Emordilorcan has died; this elemental plane has lost its master.” The Elemental Tide was furiously transmitting this message everywhere.

Now that the Earth Elemental Plane had lost both its Elemental Throne and Elemental God, it was basically like its door had become completely broken. The Earth Elemental Tide, which always transmitted the earth element to the other plans, now had the earth element begin pouring back inside it, and immense sandstorms began whipping up over the entire plan. This was the final insanity.

At the moment that Emordilorcan died, every living creature that was SemiGod level or above instantly discovered the explosive news that the Earth Elemental God had died. They also became aware of the fact that this Elemental Plane was currently searching for a new master.

“Emordilorcan is truly dead? Completely dead?”

No Elemental God had died for far too long. It was impossible to even know who had been the Earth Elemental God before Emordilorcan. All the Earth Elemental Lords that had retreated when the Divine Sins appeared had been anxiously waiting back at their own bases for news from the battlefield, but they now had blank looks as they accepted the message from their own Earth Elemental Plane. Right after they understood, they were all overjoyed.

“This enormous mountain on top of my head for tens of thousands of years has finally fallen. It’s finally my turn to become the Earth Elemental God.”

However, the next news that came right after made all these Earth Elemental Lords not know whether to laugh or cry.

The Earth Elemental Throne had been completely destroyed, and the earth element was now pouring in from all the other planes in order to create a new Elemental Throne. In that case, the new Earth Elemental God would likely have to wait until the new Elemental Throne was finished reviving.

Let us stop talking about the Earth Elemental Lords that had complex emotions right now. The ones who were the most unable to accept what happened were probably the Wind Elemental God Camdian and the Water Elemental Goddess Aylos.

Mortal enemies always knew each other the best. They knew just how strong Emordilorcan was, and when they discovered that Roland, who was only currently a Gold rank, actually dared to go engage in single combat against Emordilorcan, they inwardly treated Roland as a cocky, overconfident person heading to his death even though they didn’t say anything out loud.

In their eyes, no matter what achievements I had achieved in the past, they were all mere mortal achievements that would be gone in a flash. The achievements were only temporary glories in the past, nothing but smoke and mirrors to them.

While new talents were always eye-catching, only those who remained at the top for the longest were the most respected. In their long lifespans, they had witnessed countless numbers of heroes with astonishing ability and geniuses that could achieve anything, but those that were undying and could actually survive for thousands and tens of thousands of years were actually quite few. To Camdian and Aylos, only those who could live to the end were truly worthy of their respect.

“The Eagle of Glaso? I’ve heard of him; I think he was famous about three thousand years ago. What a pity; I think he died of a sudden plague. Sigh, mortals are just too fragile. Whenever I take a nap, several hundred years will have gone by and so many of them will have perished.”

Camdian and Aylos did have their right to be proud of themselves. So many famous heroes and geniuses would die at an even quicker rate than they had become famous. For these ancient Elemental Gods that were like artifacts, only one type of existence was truly worthy of their respect—those that had also passed the test of time, as well as the strong ones that were able to defeat them.

Emordilorcan was no piece of cake to deal with. The countless lives that had died to him were the best evidence of this, and both these Elemental Gods were well aware that any Elemental God was basically an unbeatable existence within his or her own Elemental Plane. They would be able to casually use elemental power as they pleased to endlessly replenish their life power and magic power. Perhaps it was possible to defeat an Elemental God in his own plane, but killing one in his home plane was practically impossible.

But, the Elemental Tide that brought the news of Emordilorcan’s death couldn’t possibly be wrong or faked. Emordilorcan had not only been defeated, but he had truly died as well. This was far out of their expectations, which made them not know what to do anymore.

Although their goal had been to eliminate this bothersome stone giant that was their mortal enemy, no matter how many preparations they made, they still had a tiny voice in their hearts that kept whispering to them, telling them that killing Emordilorcan in the Earth Elemental Plane was impossible and that it was fine as long as they didn’t lose.

“…As long as we can seal him—no—as long as we heavily injure him and force him to add a few decades to the length of time that he needs to recuperate, that will be enough.”

From a certain standpoint, Emordilorcan, who was able to dominate the other three Elemental Gods for innumerable years, was indeed incredible. Perhaps, after all their clashes, the other three Elemental Gods retained fear in their hearts.

It was obvious that this was also the source of why they would never give their fullest when fighting against him. Even though they hated him so much, they would never be willing to be on the frontlines and truly fight while risking their lives.

To be honest, their fear was no mistake. The fact that I succeeded in killing Emordilorcan could not only be attributed to the fact that he just happened to be at his weakest in tens of thousands of years, but the biggest factor of all wasn’t even the Divine Sin Shadow’s “Ice Calamity”—it was my personal world of “Frigidwinter Earth.”

The Earth Elemental Plane’s Earth Elemental God was truly impossible to kill in his own plane. But when he was isolated in another world and was unable to absorb even a single speck of the earth element, he was in a more pitiful state than even while on the mortal plane. Plus, his greatest support, the Earth Elemental Throne, had already been destroyed. Only with all these factors combined was I able to slay him in my “Frigidwinter Earth.”

I definitely wasn’t the only one who noticed that Emordilorcan had faked his death. But, I was definitely the only person who intended to truly kill him, and I had prepared so many absolute traps just for that purpose.

“How did Emordilorcan die?! How is it possible that he died? Isn’t he supposed to be immortal as long as he’s within the Earth Elemental Plane?”

But, the indisputable facts were right in front of them. They had to believe it.

After their mortal enemy died, the two Elemental Gods and the numerous Earth Elemental Lords had only a brief period of joy before a deep feeling of fear seized them.

“He even has the ability to kill Emordilorcan. If he was my enemy…”

From a certain standpoint, there wasn’t anything wrong with their fear. This was only a temporary alliance against a mutual enemy to begin with, and now that the mutual enemy had died, of course the alliance would be over. The relationship between us was rather subtle to begin with. Camdian at least had fought together with us in the past, while Aylos had a history of conflict against us back at Auland, and both sides were currently just pretending to be friends now without bringing their enmity out into the open.

But, right now, the two Elemental Gods’ reactions were opposite from expected. Camdian’s expression was filled with caution, and it was obvious that he was deeply contemplating something anxiously. Meanwhile, Aylos was hesitant for only a short while before she became joyous again.

Reyne noticed both the Elemental Gods’ reactions. While she didn’t allow her expression to reveal anything, she mentally figured everything out.

“Camdian has large elemental armies and Winged Tribes under his command. It’s highly likely that he has ambitions about the Northlands, and perhaps he’s even made some preparations for attacking us already. Meanwhile, Aylos probably thinks that we’re sufficiently strong enough, and now has more confidence in us being able to revive her husband Sidunwar. It seems that Brother Roland was correct. The Wind Elemental God is an ambitious one with a Luck stat of E, with his ambition far surpassing his actual power. Although Camdian’s plan will probably fail in the end, we still need to make extra preparations and be on guard. Rather than Camdian, since we have Sidunwar as a sort of hostage, we can try to get Aylos truly on our side.”

Reyne was smiling sweetly while secretly plotting. A certain princess must have been with two certain black-bellied princes for too long; she was becoming more and more black-bellied herself…

Suddenly, a small earthquake interrupted everyone’s secret thoughts. A Giant Sand Worm crawled out from underground, and before anyone could attack it, it spat out a Dracon colored in green sticky goo all over. Various other chaotic things could also be seen stuck all over the Dracon’s body…

Er—that scene was too beautiful, so in order to prevent anyone from going blind or losing their appetites for dinner, let’s just add some mosaics to this scene and press fast-forward.

*Cough!* *Cough!* The moment the Dracon landed on the ground, he spat out a bunch of disgusting things… *Cough!* *Cough!* I should continue adding mosaics here for all his disgusting vomit as well.

“Beifeng Herault, it would seem that you’ve found an even higher level of how to play around. Give us one reason why we shouldn’t destroy you right here for unhumanness.”

Beifeng lifted his head up proudly even though everyone was surrounding him with obvious hostile intentions.

“What are you talking about? I’m the biggest contributor of all in this battle, even Lord Roland is very grateful to me. If it wasn’t for me destroying the Elemental Throne, who knows who might have won in the end!?”

At hearing this, everyone from the mortal plane was appeased while the two Elemental Gods also had looks of sudden realization, but…

“What did you guys do!”

Alright then, in a way, the Earth Elemental Lords were still furious that the Elemental Throne had been destroyed as none of them could ascend to the position of Earth Elemental God. Now, Beifeng was loudly shouting that we were the ones who destroyed the Elemental Throne—Beifeng’s ability to taunt others was probably now at the point of being able to attract aggro with simply his face.

Luckily, there weren’t that many Earth Elemental Lords present, and they didn’t dare to turn on the strong individuals present here. And, at the same time, Camdian’s face reddened completely. All those Earth Elemental Lords were glaring at him with expressions filled with rage and anger that they dared not verbalize. No matter how stupid he may have been, Camdian knew that he had fallen for Roland’s plot, but it just happened to be that the situation wasn’t in his favor. Just like the Earth Elemental Lords, he didn’t dare to start a fight right here and now.

While the Earth Elemental Lords were now looking at Camdian in an unfriendly light, they weren’t able to take care of the main culprit, Roland, behind this, nor did they dare to turn on the Wind Elemental God. They figured they would at least beat up the direct destroyer of the Elemental Throne in order to vent their anger.

“Wait!”

Just as the Earth Elemental Lords were intending to “have a heart-to-heart talk” with Beifeng, Reyne suddenly spoke up and blocked them.

“Your Highness Reyne, you’re truly a good person. I apologize for misunderstanding who you really were in the past; I promise that my subordinates will stop spreading scandals about incest between you and Lord Roland.”

A certain Dracon probably had too much fun playing with the Giant Sand Worms earlier and his brain wasn’t working properly yet. He still managed to continue digging his own grave.

“Oh, it’s fine to keep spreading rumors about that. No, in fact, it’s better to spread even more rumors about it. If everyone thinks it’s true and can accept it, that’ll be for the best… Cough, it’s just a joke. Apart from Beifeng, nobody here needs to take it seriously.”

This time, a certain princess’s image was completely shattered, but Roland wasn’t here right now, so there was obviously nobody present who could lecture and control her.

Reyne cleared her throat and asked the most critical point of all.

“Cough! Cough! I just want to ask, why hasn’t Brother Roland come out yet? Could it be that something’s happened to him?”

“He said that he still has something else to do, and is also going to spend some time cultivating in this plane. He said not to mind him and return home first.”

Reyne nodded as she glanced at the collapsing temple. Due to Karwenz’s method of sensing Roland, she knew that Roland was fine and that it was a good time to leave the Earth Elemental Plane. So, she then immediately retreated on the topic of Beifeng.

“Everyone, do as you like. Back where we come from, beating up Beifeng is a daily occurrence that happens three times a day just like eating meals. He has really thick skin, so don’t worry that you’ll accidentally beat him to death.”

Alright then, a certain Dracon was instantly astounded to hear this and crouched while clutching his head to protect his face.

“Don’t hit my face! I still need to return to my ‘lover!’”

Alright, let’s not inquire into how he managed to find a “lover” in the Earth Elemental Plane, nor shall I comment upon just what type of existence he hooked up with. At any rate, this common daily life occurrence of “eating, sleeping, and beating up Beifeng” was now being reenacted in the Earth Elemental Plane.

To be honest, while the allied armies outside were indeed ending their temporary friendship just as expected, I actually did have some bothersome things to take care of. It would seem that I would be unable to return to the mortal plane for a while yet.

In order to construct a better, more perfected version of “Frigidwinter Earth,” I needed a higher-quality divine source of earth element power. Originally, I had planned on using Emordilorcan as this excellent source, but now I had an even better one.

“This is the Earth Elemental Throne?”

The white crystal seemed plain on the surface, but it emanated continuous waves of mana. However, it was already shattered into pieces.

“It should be a shard of the Earth Elemental Throne… Your Highness, your frostbite is too serious; please don’t move about too much. This spell array should be able to help with the first step of curing your injuries, but I still recommend that you wait for your injuries to be completely recovered before you continue combining this Earth Elemental Throne shard with your world.”

I had used too much of my power, which caused Harloys to fall into a deep sleep again. The task that I had originally planned for Harloys could only now be given to my backup candidate.

The hermit Eaglestorm had been secretly preparing the most top-notch of healing spell arrays. As a final insurance, I hadn’t sent him to the frontlines of battle, but now he became the doctor and supporter for me that I really needed.

As an Arch Druid, controlling the forces of nature and healing were both foundational aspects of his job class. With his presence, I was somewhat able to relax.

As for his attempt to convince me to rest, I smiled without answering him. Some things were unable to be said out loud. Was I supposed to tell him that I just received a message from Ayer saying, “Hey, I can only maintain the barrier for one more week. If you have anything important left to do, do it fast?”

I watched the magic power rapidly diminish from this Elemental Throne shard and knew that the new Elemental Throne was definitely absorbing power for its revival. So, I grit my teeth and immediately placed the shard within my world.

“Now then, let’s bring true earth to this frigid soil and help my world evolve.”
