Luluvi’s eyes gazed into the distance.

After these ten years, she had become a true Level 9 Archer. The entire world was filled with birdsong and blooming flowers. Monsters were raised like livestock, gentle and ready for slaughter.

The Moon Gods no longer exerted profound influence over the world.

Only faint aftershocks of their presence echoed across the lands.

She was now one of the top Archers in the world. Yet whenever she occasionally lifted her gaze to the heavens, she always seemed to glimpse a majestic figure walking along the river of time.

"Kanzaki Rei..."

She had known Kanzaki Rei for no more than twenty years in total.

For the first ten, he had vanished.

In the latter ten, he had transformed into an unimaginable, towering existence in less than a few months.

The world had truly been saved.

The Moon Gods no longer fought among themselves.

After departing from this timeline, all crises and upheavals had ceased.

Kanzaki Rei would occasionally watch over the timeline of his birth.

But most of the time, he still wandered among far more distant parallel worlds.

Izparut had also become another majestic existence. He seemed to have become the lord of the origin and king of magic across countless timelines.

Kumironi had recreated life and erased the concept of death. She extended this concept to even more timelines, creating immortality across more worlds.

She had stepped onto another path.

Now she had become the Moon God of Immortality and Life, taking the position of February in this timeline.

As for Akasei, with the pathways left behind by Izparut and Yug, he had traveled to different timelines and defeated many powerful foes. He had come infinitely close to the realm of a Level 10 Warrior.

Obades, through multiple different worlds, had turned himself into the cornerstone of several realms. As long as those worlds remained indestructible, so too would Obades.

Saint One had also obtained what he desired. Although his hopes for reincarnation had been shattered, thanks to Kumironi’s existence, he had become another form of ageless, undying, immortal being.

However...

In this current era, everyone was ageless, undying, and immortal.

But there was another piece of good news: he and Sayaka had finally escaped the constraints of lifespan, fulfilling the long-cherished wish that had gone unfulfilled due to their differing lifespans in the past.

Pari seemed to have gone to another timeline. She was finally no longer trapped by the prophecies that flashed through her mind day and night.

As for Kiyomi, it turned out she had become Tihi’s successor... the successor of the January Moon God. As a result, she had vanished from everyone’s sight.

She had become an unseeable, imperceptible existence.

As the price of this binding, she could no longer be perceived by anyone, nor could she cause harm to anyone.

Yet in this state, she could still perform certain actions that influenced the progression of the world.

It was only after Kanzaki Rei had traversed thousands of timelines that Kiyomi was finally noticed.

In the beginning, Kiyomi had actually gone to the second timeline together with Kanzaki Rei and Neherkato.

In the instant of battle against Ekhator, she had also launched an attack on him.

The attack had not succeeded, because she could not harm anyone... but Ekhator’s sharp intuition had still been alerted.

It was because of that momentary lapse of focus that Kanzaki Rei had managed to seize the reversal of time from Ekhator’s grasp and found that narrow window of opportunity for victory.

It had seemed as if Ekhator had briefly lost focus due to the influence of luck.

In truth...

There had been another predetermined fate hidden in the unseen.

As for Loss, the adventurer who had helped Kanzaki Rei back in Rehn Town, she and the others now held prominent positions across the world.

Loss, whose talent had been mediocre, had been vigorously supported and assisted in every way. In ten years, she had been forcefully raised from Level 4 to Level 7.

With her original aptitude, she would have remained a Level 4 Healer for her entire life. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Kanzaki Rei’s kingdom had come to rule the entire world.

The whole world was now the Domain of Azure.

Ansu had finally been released. It felt like he had been imprisoned—released after countless cycles of repetition in that spacetime.

Only twenty years had passed in total.

Yet Ansu’s mind was filled with shadows.

He had figured out exactly what mechanism governed the reincarnation in that spacetime. Given his lifespan, completing all the cycles in proper sequence would have required nearly infinite time.

Even someone as calm as Ansu could not help but feel a degree of collapse upon learning the answer.

Fortunately, he had been released after only twenty years.

But upon his release... Ansu wondered whether he had crossed into another timeline.

What era was this? Only twenty years had passed?

What did it mean that the Moon Gods had all broken their bindings and left this world? What did it mean that the entire world was now the Domain of Azure? What did it mean that Kanzaki Rei had become an existence surpassing Moon Gods, wandering across infinite timelines?

What did it mean that everyone now held an "Azure Bestowal," and even an unawakened human child could erupt with the combat power of a Level 8 Class Changer?

The effect of the Imperial Sword could grant every citizen of the kingdom a projection of the Imperial Sword.

The strength of the projection depended on the strength of the artifact itself, the user’s power, and the scale of the kingdom.

The "Imperial Sword" in Kanzaki Rei’s hand was no longer merely the Imperial Sword.

It was the fusion of countless divine artifacts, including an Imperial Sword within it... yet the projection it cast was that of the fully fused artifact.

And the scale of the kingdom far exceeded a single timeline or a single world.

Thus...

The individual strength of the projection’s user had become far less important.

Even if the balance had not been broken, the resources of the current world were no longer enough to raise monsters terrifying enough to contend with the people of the Azure Domain.

All gods.

All Level 9 Class Changers ultimately fell under the jurisdiction of Kanzaki Rei’s empire.

The bindings of gods would be fulfilled with the empire’s assistance.

Level 9 Class Changers, thanks to Kumironi, possessed infinite lifespans and were nearly indistinguishable from gods.

It had become a world of immense prosperity without the need for struggle.

The underworld had completely vanished, merging with the mortal world.

Ansu could only think... what the hell had he woken up to?

...

Year 5048.

Kanzaki Rei walked through a chaotic flow of time, his steps drifting freely.

With a casual swing of his hand, ripples of creation spread outward. Wherever his fingertip pointed in the void, spacetime formed and a brand-new world was born.

Within this world, a Tree of Wisdom naturally emerged, gathering all spirituality and converging it toward Kanzaki Rei.

Creating from nothing.

Creating spirituality from nothing.

Then channeling that spirituality back into himself—Kanzaki Rei no longer needed to gather it from other parallel timelines. With every breath, his spirituality rose naturally.

His eyes had already beheld the ultimate.

"Origin Nest." Kanzaki Rei murmured softly. His voice echoed from afar, resounding across countless parallel timelines.

"Heh, so you still remember my existence?"

Within his mindscape, a tiny shred of consciousness emitted a black-red glow.

This had once been the vast consciousness cluster of the polluted origin nest. Yet now, its immense consciousness was swallowed by something even vaster—like Mount Tai facing a flowing galaxy or a boundless star system.

It had become insignificant.

The essence of the polluted origin nest within Kanzaki Rei’s body was now nothing more than a negligible impurity.

It did not matter whose essence it had been.

What mattered was whose consciousness it was...

"Indeed. You have become such a majestic existence. You certainly have the capital to ignore me."

Kanzaki Rei heard the mocking tone from within his consciousness.

Yet he responded with only calm, emotionless divinity. "I’ll give you one chance. Separate from my body."

"Go to a world inhabited only by your own kind."

As he spoke, Kanzaki Rei raised his hand casually. Countless timelines converged and fused... gathering toward a single point. In the end, hundreds of millions of timelines merged into one unique timeline.

Kanzaki Rei directly extracted every polluted origin nest from its own timeline.

If this had been before, it would have been impossible. No one could manipulate so many timelines at once—not even a Time God.

Not to mention extracting an existence with Moon God-level essence from so many timelines, regardless of its willingness.

But the current Kanzaki Rei could do it.

Whoosh!

A hand of consciousness manifested within his mindscape and pinched the region where the polluted origin nest resided. The black-red consciousness was lifted like a clump of cotton.

It was completely drawn out.

With a casual flick—

Ding!

This shred of consciousness merged into the unique timeline that had been opened, one containing hundreds of millions upon trillions of polluted origin nest consciousnesses.

"No!"

"You’re not giving me a way out—you want to erase me!"

Whoosh!

That single grain of consciousness merged into the countless trillions and was swallowed.

BANG!

The next second, Kanzaki Rei appeared within this world.

Before him stretched an impenetrable black-red. Pollution swept across everything. The world contained only pollution—nothing but pollution!

After Kanzaki Rei descended, he stood with his hands clasped behind his back, gazing at the scene with perfect calm.

"Kanzaki Rei!"

"It’s you!"

"I know you! Your essence, your existence—you originated from me!"

"Everything about you is me!"

"With the power you possess now, you still cannot escape me!"

"But you are too arrogant!"

"You dared to fuse us all together. Now we are one. No existence can stand against us!"

Whoosh!

Countless black-red auras pierced through time, breaking out of the timeline Kanzaki Rei had created. Thick pollution surged toward nearby timelines!

When all the polluted origin nests from every timeline gathered into a single one, its essence had already surpassed Moon God level.

It stood above Moon Gods!

The overwhelming pollution even wrapped toward Kanzaki Rei!

Divine Kingdom: Final Purity, Untainted.

Click—

Kanzaki Rei was enveloped by his Divine Kingdom.

In an instant, it felt as if every consciousness and all spirituality within his mindscape had been coated in a layer of black-red frost.

Yet Kanzaki Rei’s eyes remained ice-cold and serene.

"If I couldn’t deal with you, why would I have created you in the first place?"

Kanzaki Rei simply stacked his index finger over his middle finger, forming a simple hand seal.

Yet in the illusory realm, countless phantoms from parallel timelines overlapped upon that same seal, layering thousands upon thousands of seals.

"End."

BANG!

The Divine Kingdom exploded!

The consciousness of the polluted origin nest before him disintegrated completely. With a single glance and an attack that could not even be clearly seen, the collective of polluted origin nests from countless timelines was pierced and collapsed!

Kanzaki Rei stood with his hands behind his back.

He watched the scarlet blood rain falling from the sky.

The final knot in his heart had dissipated. Regarding his own essence, Kanzaki Rei no longer held any internal conflict.

He was himself.

No matter where he came from, no matter how his body had been born or what process he had undergone.

I am I.

The reason he had been unable to step into this realm before was not a lack of wandering, but that he had not yet removed the final "impurity" within his heart and mind.

The last thread of his knot had not been resolved.

Once it was, this supreme realm became the realm of Transcendence.

Kanzaki Rei finally felt it.

No longer was it about creating worlds or creating spirituality.

It was... creating all of reality.

With a single thought, he could perfectly replicate events that had already occurred into an entire world, where every person possessed fully real souls, spirituality, and bodies...

He could turn the nonexistent into the existent, and the existent into the nonexistent.

He could modify time, distance, length, and all fundamental laws, open up new elements, freely reverse positive and negative spacetime without restriction, walk the river of time, do anything, and yet never violate any causality.

Whatever his heart desired.

It would be realized.

During the process of reaching this realm, Kanzaki Rei felt all his spirituality transform into a vague will. This will was without joy or sorrow, beyond any judgment of good or evil, yet it filled his entire mindscape.

If not for his God-Tier · Perception Division talent, he likely would have completely merged his consciousness the instant he attained enlightenment, possibly becoming a merciless unified will.

Fortunately... he possessed this talent.

However, without this talent, Kanzaki Rei would not have rashly entered this realm.

He had long known the potential dangers of this realm.

Without complete preparations, Kanzaki Rei would not have stepped into it.

After entering Transcendence, his self remained his self.

Ahead, there were no longer any paths.

Kanzaki Rei glanced back slightly.

Whoosh!

The moment he raised his eyes, he returned to the bustling airport.

Wearing an ordinary jacket over a shirt, he opened his drowsy, sleepy eyes in the waiting hall.

He saw, in the distance, an existence draped in a black robe, with countless maggots writhing beneath it.

Kanzaki Rei stood up.

In the next second, he held the polluted origin nest in his hand.

"You..."

The polluted origin nest felt its power collapsing and fading.

How could this existence it had viewed as its target...

BANG!

The polluted origin nest exploded.

Kanzaki Rei looked at the hand that had crushed it.

"Hm. It still feels pretty satisfying..."

His humanity remained.

"Then..." Kanzaki Rei’s gaze turned toward every friend he had ever known.

He brought his hands together before his chest.

Streams of flowing light unfolded across countless timelines!

The lights drilled into each person, using them as centers to open brand-new worlds—worlds that revolved solely around them.

They could return at any time, or remain forever in the independent worlds created just for them.

He himself had no other particular wishes, but since he had reached this realm, he might as well make this world a little more perfect.

After doing all this, Kanzaki Rei returned once more to his original timeline.

"Luluvi..."

"Do you think Master will come back?"

Kanzaki Rei’s existence had become so majestic that even Moon Gods could not easily glimpse him...

Just as Matsusei asked with a melancholic expression, a figure who had crossed spacetime appeared beside the two.

"I’m back."

...

Year 5049.

Neherkato was brought back from another timeline.

Thereafter, in eternal time, all things were immortal and undying. Every wish could be fulfilled. Every world became perfect.
