  Nyoi-Bo Studio

  Frank, his friends, and the air force of the Sumerian Freedom Association entered this fantastic city. The city was ancient but spectacular. It looked epic and legendary. After they entered the city, they realized that it must be the capital city of the mythical Silver Dynasty Prolis. The people in the city were the first group of humans in history, following the Golden Dynasty.

  There was endless darkness outside, low temperatures, and a blizzard that could freeze people instantly. Everyone wore heavy clothes, but the moment they stepped into the city, they felt the air warm as if it were spring. That virtual wall seemed to block everything outside. The environments outside and inside the city were completely different.

  Frank and his friends found out that everything here was virtual. What was surprising to them was that the people in the city were conscious and intelligent as if these weren’t just shadows of their past selves, but life imprints.

  This was the result of the powers of the holy devices that came from the beginning of the world. Everything in the city operated based on the memories of the world. People in the city had no idea that their time had long passed.

  Frank stood at the center of the city. Here, they found the mythical holy device they had come here for, the Slate of Civilization.

  That mythical slate stood at the center of the palace square in a crack in the ground. Pedestrians walking on the street ignored it. There was a sacrificial ceremony held in the holy temple across from the slate. Male and female priests would hold ceremonial devices and offer sacrifices to the Goddess of Light and the great angel Faross, who witnessed their ceremonies. This was a ritual that began before Silver Dynasty.

  Everything here was formed from the light shadows emanating from the Slate of Civilization.

  “This…… Is this the divine device left by our Creator?”


  “How come someone just left it here like it’s a piece of trash?”


  “What do you mean by ‘just left it here’? This is the Arctic. No one else has ever been here. And we’re at the edge of the Arctic and the end of the sky!”


  Everyone who entered this place was thrilled. They looked around at the ancient city, feeling that they had traveled through time and back to that ancient dynasty.

  Frank walked toward the slate stuck in the ground and pulled it out. The endless light shadows contracted and merged together, falling into his hand. Frank held Slate of Civilization up and it shone like a blazing sun. Shining stars appeared in the sky, and two of the stars came closer to the main world. The enormous Star Kingdom revealed itself to everyone.

  Gods who were aloof and distant couldn’t resist their urges anymore once Frank discovered the Slate of Civilization. They couldn’t just wait to act until the time that the three of them would ascend to their thrones. They had a divine device left by Creator, which was enough to make gods greedy.

  The giant star emanated a silver light that enveloped the Arctic. Darkness and storms permeated the world. Two traces of consciousness from the Star Kingdom landed on the main world.

  Countless people prayed and chanted together in unison, singing the same worship song. The shadows of the two gods were dozens of miles long. Even the main world couldn’t hold their bodies. They were only able to observe the world on the dimensional wall as if they were looking at ants in a box through a crack in the lid. As the gods stared down at the land ruthlessly and aloofly, it was as if everything became frozen, including people’s minds.

  “The anger of the God of Storm!”


  “Erosion from the God of Night!”


  Clouds were dragged by the light shadows of the gods. The clouds combined with the storms in the sky. Storms of elements overtook half of the Arctic.

  The twisted shadow which had completely merged with the dark night sky was holding a candlestick. It dove down from the sky, carrying raging fires and darkness with it, dashing toward Frank and the others.

  The airships and battleships in the Arctic were ravaged by the stormy whirlpool. They didn’t even have time to scream before exploding, their lives snuffed out in the darkness like fireflies.

  The Alva Sky Fortress floating above them disintegrated in the storm’s power immediately, producing cracking sounds as the storm particles turned the fortress into dust in an instant.

  “This is the power of a true god!” Wilbert had never realized how terrific and terrible the gods could be. The power gap between demigods and true gods was like that between ants and giants. True gods’ power could actually destroy the world.

  He hadn’t realized why there was a pact between the gods until now. Without any constraints, this world would have been annihilated long ago by fights that broke out among the gods.

  “Power of true gods with the help of world rules?” Alva looked at the dark virtual shadow holding a candlestick diving at them from the sky. The enormous candlestick covered the entire sky while the virtual candlelight shone upon the ground. It was breathtaking.

  Alva’s face was pale as he looked to Frank, “Are we about to be the first ones to fight true gods?”


  Frank smirked, “Then it’s our honor.”


  “Don’t worry, brother. We haven’t lost yet!”


  Frank held the Slate of Civilization up and yelled, “Civilization! Date back! In the name of the three gods of civilization, I summon the mythical city of the Creator! Projection of City of Gods!”


  All of a sudden, the Slate of Civilization produced a shining light, brightening the entire Arctic in the dark. It brightened the sky, and the light went through space, casting shadow on the Star Kingdom.

  Even people on the Alen Continent an enormous ocean away could see the light pillars from the distant land in the extreme north. It stretched hundreds of miles away into the outer sky.

  “What is that?”


  “What is that light?”


  The Pope from the Church of Light stood in the divine palace in St. Sarl City. The high priests and their relatives were all horrified. It was unimaginable to them that they would ever see such gleaming light and supernatural power rippling from a whole continent away.

  The Slate of Civilization kept turning back to the time before. Frank, Alva, and Wilbert felt that they were traveling back in time and arriving back in ancient times. They saw a mythical city floating in the clouds. It was the divine city built by their Creator.

  The entire world was shocked by what just happened, including all the gods in the Star Kingdom.

  “How is that possible?”


  “How come?”


  “What is that?”


  “Why didn’t we find a divine device like this in the Arctic before?”


  Light shadows condensed, and lots of light traveled into and occupied the sky. An enormous sky city that stretched for miles and miles had appeared up in the sky. The silver base gave out holy light, and on top of the base was the kingdom of the gods. This was a garden from a dream world.

  Among the mysterious magically-reinforced plant forests and bizarre mountains ran holy rivers. Many fairies and priests flew between the giant trees which pierced through the clouds. The divine city at the center seemed to be built from many palaces that had appeared throughout history, holy and mysterious.

  At the center of the holy city, there was a trace of consciousness emanating energy that seemed to exist beyond time and space, making it hard for even the gods in the sky to breathe.

  The mythical City of Creation was summoned into the present era by the three gods of civilization using the Slate of Civilization.

  The Master of the Night dropped his divine device, the Master of Storm dashed toward Frank and the others with his godly anger. Half the Arctic crumbled, and everything in sight was collapsing, yet it didn’t affect anything in the City of God at all. They couldn’t even touch the projection.

  By this time, the Master of the Night, Louis, and the Master of Storm, Jonathan, were visibly shocked. They couldn’t stay aloof and apathetic anymore.

  “How is it possible?”


  “The Capital of God?”


  Frank, Alva, and Wilbert stood at the top of the City of Creation, looking at the colossal Star Kingdom and the two true gods.
