Imprisoned for a Trillion Years, I Was Worshipped by All Gods!-Chapter 366 - -Farewell

He was the Will of the World for Crossbridge World, so naturally, he would fulfill his duty.

"But Dad, are you really… not coming back?"

"I can’t say for sure. This time, I might be facing a particularly formidable opponent."

Hearing this, Big White lifted his head to look at Daniel.

"Dad, does that mean when we pay respects to you in the future, we’ll have to come to this space to do it?"

Daniel: ???

Suppressing his irritation, Daniel dissolved the private space and turned to the others.

"Green, I’ll leave the academy in your hands. You’ve done a great job so far. I hope you can live up to everything your grandfather stood for."

Hearing Daniel’s words, Green couldn’t hold back his tears.

"I understand," he said, his voice trembling.

"Headmaster, how long will you be gone this time?"

Nina asked, her eyes red as she looked at Daniel.

"This time… I really can’t say."

Daniel sighed.

He knew that this time, he might have to face the Creator God Himself.

As for when he might return, no one could predict.

To confront a being capable of creating worlds…

The mere thought of such a challenge made it impossible for Daniel to foresee the outcome.

Even though he now possessed the power to reshape worlds,

Daniel couldn’t confidently guarantee there wouldn’t be any complications.

"No matter what, Headmaster, you promised me before. Wherever you go, whatever you do, you have to give me a timeframe!"

Nina insisted, her voice resolute.

After some thought, Daniel said:

"Alright… how about ten thousand years?"

"Fine! Ten thousand years, then. I’ll wait for you, Headmaster!"

Nina declared firmly.

Daniel sighed inwardly.

Still such a child at heart…

Ten thousand years…

Even if unexpected issues arose, time would likely smooth them over.

"By the way, how’s that dream world you mentioned creating with Nora coming along?"

"It’s nearly ready. Nora and I have both become Sovereigns. Once we return, we can fully realize our initial ideas."

"Headmaster, you have to promise—ten thousand years, you’ll come back!"

"I promise," Daniel said with a smile.

Afterward, Daniel said his goodbyes to the rest of the group.

Finally, he turned to Elise.

"This time, I’ll probably be gone for a long while. I won’t get to enjoy your cooking anymore. But it’s not because of what happened before—it’s something else."

"Headmaster, will we meet again?"

"Then work hard to improve your strength. Become a Sovereign, and you’ll be able to wait for my return!"

"Okay! By then, I’ll have created lots of new dishes, and I promise they’ll satisfy you."

After finishing his farewells, Daniel felt a pang of loss.

Ever since arriving in Crossbridge World, he had always been an invincible presence.

Yet the time he’d spent with those around him had been far too brief.

Most of his days were spent in seclusion,

Rarely stopping to enjoy life.

Perhaps the one who had accompanied him the longest was Elise.

After sending everyone away, the figure of the woman from the Church of Origins reappeared.

She had stayed out of sight during the farewells, waiting patiently for Daniel to finish.

"Are you ready?"

The woman asked, looking at Daniel.

Daniel didn’t answer immediately.

Instead, he gazed at the newly reconstructed God Realm,

The world he had created.

After a long moment, he turned and walked toward her.

It took some time to reach her location.

Here, the space was safe from destruction,

For it lay outside the universe itself.

Daniel arrived at the entrance of a cave,

Where he saw countless bleached bones.

The path ahead was paved with these remains,

A road made of pure white bones.

"So many people chose to leave their lives here," Daniel said softly.

"Yes," the woman replied.

"These were sages unwilling to fall into oblivion. They left their power within their bones, releasing their final, wrathful cry against the Creator God."

A cry that Daniel had entirely blocked.

Leading the way, the woman continued forward.

Suddenly, a question struck Daniel.

The God Emperor had claimed to have sealed the members of the Church of Origins together.

Yet from the very beginning, he had only seen this woman.

Where were the others?

"Is the Church of Origins down to just you? Why haven’t I seen anyone else?" Daniel asked.

The woman stopped in her tracks and pointed to her head.

"They’re all here."

It was then Daniel realized—her soul contained the fused essences of over ten individuals.

No wonder her spiritual power was so immense and terrifying,

Able to harness the energy from the bones with nothing but her voice.

Indeed, all power came at a price.

The woman then asked,

"Are you confident about this?"

"You should know, shouldn’t you? Facing such a being, how could I possibly be confident?"

Daniel chuckled.

"I just want to understand why He left such a glaring flaw—me."

Daniel’s tone lightened,

No longer burdened by the heaviness of his earlier farewells.

The two continued walking, unsure how far they had gone.

Eventually, the path of bones came to an end.

They were no longer within the cave.

Instead, they stood in what seemed to be a separate dimension.

At the center was a dark red altar,

Reeking of blood.

"That’s it!" the woman said.

"That altar was created to communicate with the Creator God. But every attempt ended in failure.

"No one received any response from the deity.

If the Creator God truly exists and has consciousness, He must be utterly indifferent to mortal pleas."

Daniel nodded, looking at the bloodstained altar.

Then he asked,

"Are you coming with me?"

"How could I? Perhaps in this entire universe, only you have the qualifications to do so."

To directly confront the Creator God…

Only Daniel could achieve this.

No one else.

By now, Daniel’s power was likely approaching that of the Creator God.

Without responding, Daniel asked,

"What will you do next?"

The woman replied,

"My fate was decided long ago—millions of years ago.

"In truth, I should have died then, along with him…

Though he betrayed me."

She gestured to the countless bones around them.

"This path of bones you see… it’s where I’ll end as well.

"Sometimes, death is a blessing."

With that, she turned and began walking back the way they had come.

"The rest is up to you. My task is complete."

Now, Daniel stood alone in the vast, silent space.

He climbed the altar, reaching its peak.

The once-silent void seemed to stir.

A faint breeze swept through.

Daniel spoke.

"I’m here. It’s time for you to show yourself."

His voice echoed across the space.

Daniel knew he had caught the Creator God’s attention.

Now, he only needed to draw Him out.

As Daniel waited, the void finally shifted.

A single eye opened at the edge of the void,

Cold and emotionless,

Radiating an innate indifference.
