Standing on the floating castle, Hill watched the black-haired, yellow-skinned humans moving about on the Shoulong merchant ships and gently smiled.
He seemed to feel a tenuous connection completely break at that moment.
He hadn't realized that his trip to the Suolong Continent had drawn the attention of the Heavenly Court.
Perhaps Hill's way of doing things is somewhat like those sages of the Heavenly Court who wander the world helping mortals?
But since Hill had no interest in anything related to Shoulong, that small connection naturally faded away.
Toril indeed belongs to the world of deities; even a one-sided interest can trigger a causal link.
Fortunately, Hill had never wavered in his resolve to leave this world, regardless of any person or event.
He silently returned to his study, reviewing his interpersonal connections over the years bit by bit, to confirm if there was anything he overlooked yet had ties to.
