Chapter 80: Night

As Lilith, the "Goddess of Harvest," reappeared in the Silver Kingdom, those points of light representing clear, directed faith immediately found their master and clung to her.

Lilith nodded gently and left the Silver Kingdom directly, following the guidance of Fate to find Bradel, who, as the "God of Honor," was leading the remaining Giant warriors toward the Giant King's Court.

Lilith's appearance made the Giant warriors instantly alert, and then everyone lowered their heads.

"Mother Goddess!"

"Queen!"

Lilith nodded silently, her cold eyes fixed on a Twilight that had descended abruptly.

Badehaier stepped out from the Twilight, and sensing that gaze filled with coldness and disgust, He looked at Lilith and eventually spoke as well.

"Mother Goddess."

The entire Giant race acknowledged Her as Oumibeila, the "Goddess of Harvest," so She was Oumibeila.

This was the final step embedded into Fate.

"It is finished." In the City of Silver, he cast down the two Magical Items in his hands, then intercepted a lingering image from the fog of history, imprinted it with Dream Phosphor to form a scroll of history, and etched it onto the City of Silver.

……

"It succeeded..." Amanises, who had returned to the Dark Kingdom, suddenly felt the surge of the power of Fate.

At this moment, the influence of "Hidden" on Fate and history began to climb sharply.

At this moment, Amanises's consciousness seemed to undergo a sublimation, and Her body disintegrated into darkness, dispersing completely.

She became the brilliant stars, became the gloomy firmament, and became the Night itself.

Amanises's consciousness calmly examined Herself and discovered that She already existed within the bodies of different believers and within many Extraordinary Creatures; Her Godhood had ascended to a terrifying degree.

This ascension of the Godhood of all things caused Her humanity to be worn away, eventually leaving only the most extreme coldness.

But the next instant, Amanises found traces of Herself within the fate of all things.

That was the historical trend twisted by the power of "Hidden."

The disintegration and death of the Phoenix Ancestor, the malice within it all had been hidden by Her; She had brought the calamity of death to an Ancient God.

Lilith becoming the "Goddess of Harvest" and gaining the conviction of the Giant race and the recognition of Fate, including all the influence caused thereafter, also began with "Hidden."

These two events were already destined to have an unimaginable impact on the future direction of Fate and history.

This influence on Fate could help Amanises find Her true self; this was the meaning of the ritual.

The godhood ritual of the "Night" Pathway is: to create sufficient calamity in history or Fate through the power of "Hidden."

The influence of this "Hidden" power caused Amanises's self-cognition to climb, re-finding a true self.

At the same time, a burst of Dream Phosphor exploded on Her; this came from the Dream Symbol on Her, and also from the anchoring of the Hidden Angel.

This made Her spirit clearer, and She began to actively gather Her scattered will by relying on the "Anchors" provided by believers.

Her own will grew increasingly powerful, beginning to lead the aggregation and sublimation between the Characteristics and the Unique within Her body.

Hum!

Amanises, located at the highest point of the Dark Kingdom, had Her body constantly shifting between the Magic Wolf form and the human form, sometimes even manifesting as the abstract concept of "Night."

But eventually, She stabilized completely, manifesting a human form; She used the moon as a pillow and wore a classic black long dress, the dress layered and inlaid with the starlight of the night.

Her face was covered by a thin veil, hazy and beautiful.

And after Her true image stabilized, the entire world grew gloomy, as if it had entered the night ahead of time.

Many people looked up toward the infinitely high reaches; that was the purest Night.

But in that pure, deep black, one brilliant star after another began to light up, scattering points of radiance.

The entire Dark Kingdom underwent a world-shaking change; the Red Moon hung high, and night-scented grass and Deep Sleep Flower grew and bloomed crazily.

All the believers in the Dark Kingdom knelt on the ground and prayed devoutly; the moment they saw Amanises ascend to godhood, they all sensed it.

"The Night is born." The Ancient Sun God in the Spirit World sensed the change in the Night and cast His gaze toward the Dark Kingdom.

"Your Excellency Creator." Amanises also looked toward the Ancient Sun God and nodded gently. This was the first formal meeting between the two Gods.

This was also a meeting where the status of both sides could barely be considered equal.

"Goddess of Night." The Ancient Sun God also nodded.

"Ascended to godhood?" Chumen looked at the brilliant starlight on the night sky and also realized this point; he looked at the Hidden Angel with the faint figure beside him and discovered that there was also some indescribable terror on Him.

That was the suppression of status coming from a True God.

"Finally fulfilled my wish." The Hidden Angel also revealed a smile.

"I must go back to stabilize my state, farewell." The Hidden Angel looked at Sasriel and Chumen, nodded gently, and His figure was erased by an eraser and disappeared.

His state was good, but He still needed to familiarize Himself with the Authority He had newly mastered.

The power of Authority at the True God level and the Authority represented by a single Unique are not small differences; He would undergo a qualitative change at the True God level.

"The era of the Ancient Gods has ended."

Only two people remained on the walls of the City of Silver; Sasriel suddenly pointed far away toward the Starry Sky and said softly.

"Welcome to the glorious age."

"Let there be light." A gentle and mellow voice resounded throughout the world.

The Sun Guangpan dispersed the remaining darkness, shining upon all living beings.

"The Creator has completely recovered His own Authority." The believers of the Creator all had an epiphany in their hearts, unconsciously praising the greatness of the Creator.

"Welcome to the glorious age."

A huge, heaven-reaching light shadow appeared behind the Creator.

Whoosh!

The Chaos Sea manifested naturally, and the High-sequence Characteristics and Unique of the two Pathways contained within it, "Dragon" and "White Tower," all turned into radiance and merged into that light shadow.

The eyes of the Ancient Sun God became illusory, and the sea beneath His feet, which contained all colors and all possibilities, rolled ceaselessly.

Driven by the Chaos Sea, all the Characteristics began to fuse, pushing the Ancient Sun God toward a certain supreme position.

Several streaks of light flew up from every corner of the world, rushing toward the body of the Ancient Sun God.

Those were some Sequence 1 Characteristics of the Omniscient and Omnipotent pathway that had been scattered across the world.

Some of these Characteristics were hidden in the treasure vaults of certain Beyonder races, while others were the Characteristics or weapons of certain Saints or Angels.

Now, under the power of absolute convergence, they all surged toward the Ancient Sun God.

But under the influence of a certain power, the destination of these Characteristics changed, and a certain "Error" occurred.

Hum!

In this instant, the Ancient Sun God also disappeared, his body completely merging into that pillar of light reaching toward the sky.

"I am the One, and I am the All; I am the beginning, and I am the end."

That figure of light walked upon the chaotic and illusory surface of the water, looking up toward the outside of the Starry Sky.
