Chapter 1 - After a thousand years of seclusion

Crystal Castle, Void World

[Host: Xin]

[Level: 15/??(Lock)]

[Martial Soul: Herrscher]

[Familia:Hestia Goddess of the Hearth, Home, and Family]

[Authority: Authority of Origin ] 

[Cultivation: Level Ninety-Nine (Quasi-God)/??? (Lock)]

[Ding! The thousand-year period has arrived. Please exit seclusion, Host!]

The black-robed youth rested his elbow against his cheek, his body enveloped in gray-white mist, a slight smile playing on his lips.

The void in front of the divine palace trembled.

Hestia quietly descended, looking up at the black-robed youth seated upon the silver throne above.

"You've come."

"Thinking the thousand-year period was up, I came to bring you out of seclusion," Hestia said softly.

Xin rose from the silver throne. Behind him, the tips of the silver-white giant pillars were gathered with mysterious, star-like runes, resembling Giant Sword.

A massive, double-leafed bronze gate appeared in the hall's void and slowly opened, dazzling light streaming through the gap into the Crystal Castle.

His name was Xin, and he came from the distant Blue Star, having transmigrated with a system, his anchor point located in the Douluo Continent and Danmachi World.

But even thought he have two landing point, he did not arrive to any of the two world.

His transmigration landing spot was not anywhere on the Douluo Continent, or Danmachi World. but rather in this floating city, above the endless void.

The system notified him that he needed to remain here for a thousand years before he could emerge.

His Martial Soul was the Herrscher, with a Job Class of Creator, granting him innate mastery over the [Authority], and Adventure System that gives him ability to Level Up like Game Character.

[Name: Herrscher]

[Authority: Authority of Origin/Authority of Beginning]

[Note 1:The Authority of Origin is the Authority used by the Herrschers of Origin. The Authority is still much of a mystery with much about it still being unknown.]

[Note 2: Creating Connections]

[Note 3: Honkai Energy Crystallisation]

[Note 4; Absolute Severing]

While he spend ten years raising from level 1 to level 15 by using Clone to enter Orario's Dungeon.

He even left so many unknow legend before Legend even appear.

He spent twenty years raising his cultivation to the Level Ninety-Nine Quasi-God tier.

A so-called Quasi-God is a deity without a divine position.

By merely collecting enough belief power, one could create their own divine position and become a true deity.

However, this was not what Xin desired.

The end of the Fantasy pathway sequence also held an opportunity for godhood.

True God Pathway [Sequence Zero - Herrscher]

He spent the remaining time thoroughly studying the [Authority of Origin].

As time passed, Xin gradually mastered the authority of Origin, and now only lacked a ritual for ascension to godhood.

Furthermore, he possessed a series of heaven-defying abilities:

[Authority of the Void: Unfold the island of consciousness and pull the consciousness of others into the dream world]

[Authority of Sentience: Perform mind control and consciousness guidance on enemies]

[Authority of Reason: Guide what is seen, heard, and felt into reality]

...

While cultivating the Authority of Origin, Xin used the [Authority of the Void] to project his consciousness onto the Douluo Continent ahead of time.

Unfortunately, his status was too high; no living being in the Douluo plane could withstand his spiritual will.

If he forcibly attached himself, it would only cause people's wills to collapse and drive them into madness.

He was like a lonely soul wandering outside the world, able to peer into the outside but unable to generate any interaction with it.

It wasn't until his will entered a strange void where, deep within golden temple, he saw a solitary soul wrapped in a silver cocoon and trapped in slumber.

He actively touched her soul, pulled her into the Crystal Castle, and thus formed an indissoluble bond.

Hestia Goddess of the Hearth, Home, and Family

From her, Xin learned many secrets about the Heaven, and the mission she bore.

Xin, in turn, told her many interesting anecdotes, cultural characteristics, and social structures of the human world.

A thousand years passed leisurely.

Xin taught her how to play chess and paint.

Occasionally, he would write stories and let her critique them.

Xin, meanwhile was happy, having someone enter her Holy Temple without getting burn by the Holy Fire, he is the first friend and a companions from opposite sex, they came to know each other intimately.

Hestia also told her wish, everything that is new, news from the Heaven, and even her secret that no one know.

Xin descended the stairs step by step, reaching out to hold Hestia's hand.

"Let's go."

"Mhm," Hestia cheerfully nodded.

Xin held Hestia's hand and walked toward the mysterious bronze gate.

However, before Hestia could take even half a step toward the mysterious bronze gate, her figure dissolved into an illusion and scattered.

Xin abruptly turned back, his eyebrow slightly raised.

Hestia looked at him, withdrew her foot, and gently shook her head.

"It's alright. We will meet in the real world."

Seeing this, Xin nodded slightly.

He walked toward the bronze gate, his back gradually disappearing into the depths of the light and shadow

...

In the silent, blank space.

Xin appeared in the center of the blank world.

A series of system interfaces appeared before his eyes.
