"Is this The Lands Between?" The Greater Will looked at the sun in the Sky and murmured to itself.
How long had it been since it had truly visited a world? It did not know; it had existed long before time itself.
The endless Akasha was its abode. Even The Lands Between, located at the heart of the world, held no interest for it.
It had merely cast down a beast, planted a seed, and then hastily left. There were many planets in this world, and many places it had to watch over.
However, what surprised him was the emergence of an existence within The Lands Between that could contend with him, which made him very curious.
There were many Outer Gods, but the Greater Will regarded them all as mere beasts, merely noisy, and would whimper after a beating.
Only that fellow, Yu Jin, was it? They had clashed several times, both overtly and covertly, and he had always been at a disadvantage.
But this was normal; his true body had not come to this world, so being at a disadvantage when clashing with Yu Jin was to be expected.
However, in the end, the Greater Will truly had not expected that fellow to sacrifice himself, spreading the blessing throughout The Lands Between.
Incomprehensible, the Greater Will shook its head. At this moment, he looked like an ordinary person, and he had come here to see what a world nurtured by gods as sustenance would be like.
"Heh heh, how generous, even bestowing a blessing upon me?" The Greater Will looked at the faint light in his palm and accepted it with a smile.
Blessings? This was something he only bestowed upon others. Now, to accept a blessing from another god was truly a peculiar experience.
The Greater Will calmed its mind, and its vast mental power spread out, revealing every detail of everything it passed over.
"What a prosperous world." The Greater Will smiled; the sight before him made him find it very interesting.
Following the images in his mind, the Greater Will quickly arrived on a main road.
Perhaps because it was in a remote area, there were no travelers on the main road at this moment. Only the Greater Will walked slowly along the roadside.
However, very soon, the ground began to tremble. At the same time, a loud roar also resounded.
The Greater Will turned around and looked. He saw two iron horse heads galloping towards him.
But those "iron horses" seemed to be somewhat different from the horses in his impression.
The two horse heads looked more like decorations. Below them was an axle, and extending from either side of the axle were two pairs of wheels—these were the modified graveyard dump trucks.
Although their original purpose was to run people over, they had now been modified into tractor units for pulling carriages.
The speed of the tractor unit slowed down, and the Greater Will also saw the carriage full of people behind it.
"Where are you going?" The passenger vehicle stopped, and a person inside poked their head out and asked the Greater Will.
"Leyndell," the Greater Will replied concisely.
"Get in." Upon hearing that he was going to Leyndell, the person told the Greater Will.
The Greater Will nodded and entered the carriage. Choosing a seat at random, he began to observe everything before him.
Humans, Misbegotten, Demi-Humans—all were present in the small carriage.
However, they were all somewhat different from before. The Greater Will saw a human about to get off, but having too much luggage, a large tail grew from behind him, coiled around the suitcase, and carried it down.
He also saw a Misbegotten open a window, but as the scales and feathers on his body seemed to sway in the wind, the scales and feathers merged into his flesh, and his skin became smooth and lustrous.
He also saw a Demi-Human threading a needle, his nimble fingers rapidly weaving, and beautiful flowers were drawn onto the fabric, no longer clumsy and crude as before.
The Greater Will looked at his hand, where the blessing had just fallen.
"Life begins as one. The Frenzied Flame wants to melt everything, then the world returns to one, but you, you return one to life?"
"All of life belongs to oneself."
"Truly, a mad idea."
The Greater Will smiled. Doing this, perhaps truly a being beyond gods might appear.
The scenery before him changed. Trees disappeared, and more and more towns appeared. After an unknown period, the Greater Will saw a barrier appear on the horizon.
That was the wall of the Royal Capital Leyndell, which had only been breached once in history. That war was between the Golden Lineage and the Ancient Dragon Lineage.
The city wall, towering over a hundred meters high and stretching for dozens of miles, was like a massive mountain rising from the ground, an iron barrier protecting the King.
Even though The Lands Between had now returned to peace, the mountain-like city walls still shimmered with several streaks of light.
Engraved upon them were gold, the full moon, Ancient Dragons... and all those who were willing to call Yu Jin their King.
The passenger vehicle the Greater Will was on merged into the widened Royal Capital Avenue, like a raindrop flowing into the ocean, inconspicuous.
The passage he was in was for small and medium-sized land-traveling races. It was tens of meters wide, but this road occupied less than a third of the Royal Capital Avenue.
The Greater Will looked to his right, not far away, and saw a larger model of a hovercraft, carrying medium-sized beings such as Trolls, Lion Misbegotten, Beastmen, and robust humans.
Further to the right was the road for large land-traveling races. Although others could also enter, the Greater Will felt that no one would do so.
Because those who traveled here were either Golem Guards or pure-blooded Giants. Their heights ranged from tens of meters to hundreds of meters, each like a mountain.
If not for the presence of vibration-damping magic arrays, perhaps every step they took would cause the earth to tremble.
The Giant race should have been completely annihilated in the Golden Lineage's conquest, but Yu Jin resurrected them.
"Buzz—" On the left side of the Royal Capital Avenue, a faint white light appeared. Then, the Greater Will saw several four-winged Ancient Dragons with wingspans of tens of meters, along with dozens of young, slowly descending from high in the Sky onto the left side of the Royal Capital Avenue.
Because the left passage of the Royal Capital was for winged races.
Regardless of what race traveled on the Royal Capital Avenue, their ultimate destination was one—the Leyndell City Gate in the distance, large enough to accommodate pure-blooded Giants.
The massive statues that originally stood at the city gate were removed, replaced by two armored dragons—it was their turn to be on duty today.
After passing through the city wall, it was a lively scene. On both sides of the avenue, various buildings stood in rows, and various forms of life moved through them.
Giants carried well-smelted steel, searching for buyers. Their steel would generally be quickly taken by Trolls.
Giants could smelt the best steel, and Trolls could forge the strongest weapons.
Humans were consulting with Ancient Dragons. Crops were about to sprout, and they were discussing when and where to have a heavy rain.
Humans always had a mysterious passion for planting, and Ancient Dragons could control lightning, which meant a bountiful harvest.
Misbegotten were leading Demi-Humans, nimbly moving on Golem Guards or giant machines. In their hands, these behemoths were able to operate.
The flying skills of winged Misbegotten were renowned in The Lands Between, and the small and nimble fingers of Demi-Humans were perfect for these complex mechanical creations.
A scene never before witnessed!
Various forms of life lived harmoniously in The Lands Between. This was Miquella's long-cherished wish, now realized by Yu Jin.
"We've arrived at the station, everyone please get off," the man acting as the driver said, and then the passengers filed out.
Soon, everyone on the vehicle had left, leaving only the Greater Will sitting idly in the carriage.
"What's wrong with you?" The driver saw the Greater Will remain motionless, walked over, and asked.
"..."
"No money, right?" The driver smiled, then continued, "Never mind if you don't have money, I won't charge you."
The Greater Will looked up at the driver. After all desires were satisfied, would greedy humans also become generous?
"That won't do. I'll pay his fare," a black-robed woman wearing an eye patch paid the Greater Will's fare.
"Oh? It seems your friend has arrived, why didn't you say so earlier. I'm leaving, remember to help me lock my car door."
The driver looked at the two of them and then got off the vehicle on his own, as if not at all worried about what they might do to his car.
The Greater Will looked up at the woman before him, a familiar aura. This feeling, he had only experienced it with Yu Jin.
"Person from beyond the world, what do you intend to do by coming here?" The Greater Will looked at her and asked coldly.
"Merely borrowing your power to find someone, Eternal God," the Fire Keeper clasped her hands and bowed slightly, elegant and serene.
