"The one speaking is Itas, the ’Hidden Wizard King,’ who has already placed the ’Storm God’s Scepter’ near the ’King of Nature.’"
"The sky grew increasingly ominous. Amidst the furious winds, lightning, and torrential rains, scenes reminiscent of a mythological world interwoven with reality unfolded: a one-eyed giant, an elf with a lightning symbol etched onto its forehead, and an Order Angel with silver wings wandered freely in intangible projections."
"High above, there were two towering thrones. On them sat figures of indescribable majesty and reverence. One throne held a Silver Angel with 128 wings, wielding the authority symbolizing ’Order.’ Infinite radiance flowed forth, its power spreading across the cosmos. The other throne was occupied by an elf clad in blue garb, surrounded by wind, thunder, and rain, which praised and exalted him."
"The revealed world is one of the Old God Kingdoms, the Silver Kingdom, ruled by the ’Wind Lord’ and the ’Order Lord.’"
"As the lightning storm descended upon the earth,"
"The Silver Kingdom drew ever closer to the Real World."
"Everything was in place. You silently rejoiced inside, yet understood the principle of fully committing to your act. To avoid letting the ’King of Nature’ discern any flaws, you feigned great anxiety, your actions hasty, as though striving desperately to block Him before the complete manifestation of the ’Silver Kingdom,’ and fulfill the corresponding shepherding rituals."
"It is futile. Only by ascending to the cosmic pillar’s divine throne can one grasp the true enormity of this level... The ’King of Nature’ spoke with a relaxed tone, having already transformed into His true form, able to wield the genuine powers of a ’pillar.’ The impending storm was dismissed as insignificant in His eyes."
"As He spoke, He snapped His fingers, and the storm was tinged with green, assimilated by nature."
"Storms and lightning, after all, are types of natural phenomena. As the pillar holding the authority of ’Nature,’ the King of Nature could interfere as well, though not with the mastery wielded by the ’Wind Lord.’"
"Then, the ’King of Nature’s’ gaze fell upon you,"
"You were instantly overwhelmed by a horrifying pressure."
"And this was with the concealed blessing of Itas. Otherwise, just that single glance would have caused your body to explode."
"Sweating profusely, you desperately held on to your inner unease as you slowly lifted your head. You saw that in the Silver Kingdom, on the godly throne at the highest, unreachable point, the ’Wind Lord’ directed His gaze toward the ’King of Nature,’ a smile unconsciously gracing His face as He said... ’Respected ruler of the Radiant Kingdom, Ancient God King wielding the authority of ’Nature,’ how could you forget? I am the thief of ’Fate,’ which means I’ve won.’"
"At this moment, the ’King of Nature’ was attempting to break through the ’Hidden’ obstacles arranged by Itas. As layers of calm shattered bit by bit, a smile began forming on His face, as though He had already envisioned His true form descending upon this detestable thief, turning him into a Servant of Nature amidst endless regret."
"But your declaration left the ’King of Nature’ momentarily stunned, with a sudden surge of unease creeping into His heart."
"You’ve won? What do you mean?"
"The next instant, the ’King of Nature’ discovered mysterious fluctuations representing the domain of ’Storm’ suddenly appearing within Himself—an intrusion He was entirely unaware of moments prior."
"Was this that Legendary ancient object representing the ’Storm’ from earlier?"
"Wasn’t this artifact always in the hands of that detestable thief?"
"How could it now appear here?"
"Before He could understand, a sky-covering downpour crashed down like a celestial curtain. Dense, fingertip-sized raindrops descended like floods from the heavens, and amidst them, an exalted, ancient, eternal, and ineffable silhouette—the embodiment of the ’Ancient Wind’—vaguely emerged. It was the ’Wind Lord.’"
"As the ’King of Nature’ erupted in anger, frustration, panic, and murderous intent, the storm and rain enveloped Him like a torrential flood, swallowing Him whole."
Reading the text on the screen, Yang Qizhou pondered aloud in his heart, "It seems the ’King of Nature’ has already realized the ’Storm God’s Scepter’ suddenly appeared on Him due to the secret interference of the ’Hidden Wizard King’ Itas. Indeed, apart from powers of ’Hidden,’ other pillar gods would struggle to achieve such a feat."
"As of now, it’s still impossible to determine the ’Wind Lord’s’ attitude toward the ’King of Nature,’"
"The Ancient God King, once shepherded by the ’Lord of Blasphemy,’ carries irreconcilable conflicts with the rulers of the Old Era. But their positions alone have caused this. At least for now, the game’s narrative hasn’t revealed a deep-seated enmity between the Wind Lord and the King of Nature. Thus, after retrieving the ’Storm God’s authority,’ the Wind Lord may quickly withdraw from the vortex, taking the ’Silver Kingdom’ out of the Real World."
"Nevertheless, there’s no need to worry about the ’King of Nature’ choosing to actively hand over the ’Storm God’s Scepter’ in hopes of swiftly extricating Himself from the Wind Lord."
"For the same inherent reason, although they lack intense hatred, the natural distrust between Ancient Gods and Old Gods is an undeniable truth. Even if the ’King of Nature’ were to willingly relinquish the ’Storm God’s Scepter,’ the Wind Lord wouldn’t dare accept it outright, wary of hidden schemes within."
"The real question is how much time the ’Wind Lord’s’ arrival can delay,"
"and whether it’s enough for the game character to complete the shepherding of the ’King of Nature.’"
