Lord of Mysterious Wizard-Chapter 1321 - 210: The Second Rotten Head and Rafael’s Gathering (Part 3)
Very soon, Tang Qi found himself gazing upon a realm seemingly existing only in fantasy—a perfect realm.
This world bore the marks and shadows of endless mysteries across various cosmic dimensions and civilizations of diverse species. It was not fantasy, but rather exceedingly rational.
Yet it truly was perfect, pervaded by thorns, truth, and light.
No evil, filth, or chaos existed here. It seemed to be a perfect world transformed by countless truths.
Thorny Divine Country!
This is Rafael's realm.
Tang Qi had once said he would visit his friend's divine realm as a guest.
Now, he had fulfilled that promise.
In the boundless mystery, most gods know that Rafael is waging a war against his brother, the 'Light Dominator.'
Both sides are fighting for the truth.
Yet in this perfect realm before him, Tang Qi could not perceive any traces of being in a state of war.
The Thorny Kingdom, once glimpsed in Secret Phoenix City as full of war and death, was now entirely renewed. Rafael's friends and partners were resurrected, joining him to establish a truth world distinct from the Bright Divine Kingdom.
As Tang Qi shook his dream divine tentacles, guided by the thorns, into the depths of the divine realm, he saw a garden.
It resembled the 'Heavenly Garden' of myth, containing all the animals and plants of the world.
Before Tang Qi could step into that garden, a strand of thorns suddenly drooped beside him. Amid the rippling waves, the familiar yet long-unseen Rafael appeared.
"Long time no see, my friend."
Maintaining his human form, Rafael glanced at Tang Qi's current state, a hint of amusement flashing behind his glasses.
He reached out a finger, poking one of Tang Qi's tentacles, then smiled and said:
"Good friend, from the aesthetic perspective of most spirits, your current form would be extraordinarily attractive to female deities. Do you need me to introduce a mate for you?"
"You've learned to joke, congratulations, my good friend."
Tang Qi rolled his dreamy eyes as he spoke, while transforming back into his human form.
The reason for congratulating Rafael was because Tang Qi noticed that Rafael's Divine Power was skyrocketing.
Currently, he is both a Dominator-level god and also a human, a part of all living beings.
He will no longer gaze down upon endless lives from a lofty position like his brother.
He acknowledges himself as one of them.
This is Rafael's path, and he is now truly the 'Master of Truth Thorns,' continuously transforming and elevating.
"Now I am very sure you won't need our help; you will win the war concerning truth."
"Of course, that is the truth."
During their conversation, the two exchanged smiles.
Soon after, they both looked towards the depths of the garden, where many Flower Fairies, elves, and other beings were arranging the party venue.
More ripples surged, introducing not just the many partners and subordinates Rafael intended to introduce to Tang Qi, but also many 'old friends' whom Tang Qi was already familiar with, began to arrive.
The old friends included Justice Goddess Gatis, Saint Confessor Martin Sims who became the 'Saint Star,' and Saint Prophet Pileus, reincarnated once more.
And naturally, what truly awakened Tang Qi's memories of the time in Secret Phoenix City were the friends from the Ancient Castle Bureau.
Starting with Jason, followed by Old Coulson, Jennifer, and others, instantly reminded the now-sovereign Tang Qi of the events he experienced while serving as Witch Principal.
Rafael's gathering was unlike those of other Dominator-level gods, lacking stunning and breath-taking scenes, not taking place in a magnificent temple, nor boasted stars accompanying.
The garden, along with the continuously arriving figures and laughter, mirrored the scenes often occurring when ordinary beings call upon friends.
Tang Qi felt delighted.
Compared to the cold and powerful divinity scenes, Tang Qi preferred the current scene more, as it was more real, more heart-soothing.
The two entered the garden with smiles, and just as they approached, they heard Jason arguing with someone.
The other voice also felt very familiar to Tang Qi.
"You half-man, half-goat fool, if it weren't for that insidious old man Martin Sims, how on earth could you compete against a Light Pope?"
"The one truly wielding immense power was me, the Great Second Rotten Head, always the practitioner of magic, Simon Becker."
"Simon teacher, perhaps the Thorny Path is also worth a try. Experiencing it personally, you might enjoy it."
"Little Ludwig, keep quiet."
