"Best tune?"

Jamie asked Gav, not knowing what he meant.

"Why is the synchronization rate so high?"

"I don't know."

Gav answered with an absurdly confident face.

"The important thing is that our level of sympathy is incomparably high compared to those who have come to me."

"So, how do you know that?"

Jamie looked at the First King with a puzzled expression.

First of all, the memories that have settled roughly in my head are definitely his.

I don't know why these memories suddenly came to me, but it was probably because I had a coffin of batteries on my head.

'It wasn't an archival artifact .'

I knew right away that it was an artifact with an ego, but I never imagined that I would take the initiative to create such a situation.

And the identity of the author continued to annoy me.

The creeping memories speak of him as the 'first king'.

In other words, there is a possibility of knowing the history of 10,000 years ago, when all records were expunged.

"Like I said, I don't know. it just felt your existence! Are you not?"

Not at all.

"Huh! Why?"

"Even if you ask me why, there is no answer."

It was still the same today.

Gav still seems to feel something, but he doesn't feel anything for him.

It was daunting just to organize the memories of the guy that was full in my head.

"That is unfortunate. But it's good because it doesn't change the high sync rate."

"The good thing is only you. So, what's good about high synchronization? Does it increase the knowledge you can give me?"

"Those little things don't matter."

"What nonsense? Why did I come here?"

Being omniscient, he came all the way here to know at least one aspect of that knowledge.

"And what are you? I'm pretty sure you're the first king, Gav Illidan, but why are you in the coffin of the cell?

"There were many complicated stories."

"Why did you come all the way here? The one who lived ten thousand years ago."

"Hey~ He's a great man who has set the cornerstone of the world right now, can't we speak softly? How do you think you are my descendant?"

"Don't sneak up on the topic, just answer the question. Do the wizards who have used you until now know your identity?"

Gav grinned at the question.

surely.

"Then you only told me?"

"Because it's special."

Gav said as he circled Jamie.

"You are special. I don't know why the synchronization rate with me is so high, but that doesn't really matter. So I can tell you."

so why? What do you believe in me?"

"Hey, don't be funny~"

Jamie looked at Gav with a displeased look on his shoulder.

Gav, who had a rather brazen personality, only smiled slyly in spite of such a gaze.

"More, aren't you curious? What would the world be like?"

suddenly?

"Aren't you curious? Most of the wizards who came to me were the first to ask about the beginning of the world."

"Can you answer that?"

Sure. I am omniscient."

At the word 'omniscient', Jamie said with a smirk.

"Then show me. the beginning of the world."

"I thought you would be interested too."

As Gav snapped his fingers, the vast plains swayed violently, turning into a barren wasteland.

It was an empty land.

Animals, trees, and grass.

There was nothing that could be called life.

Except for one person.

"That person ."

A man with a worn-out cloth is walking on the land of death where even a small puddle of water cannot be found.

He continues to wander aimlessly, soaking in blood with his wounded bare feet on the dry, cracked ground.

However, the man's skin was a little strange.

Although it was covered in dust and could not be seen in detail, the man was not ordinary. He had blue skin.

Jamie turned around, and Gav was smiling.

It's me.

"Why are you wandering there alone?"

"Have you lost your way?"

you ."

"A question later. Keep looking."

Gav snapped his fingers again.

The background changed once again.

This time, the number of people increased a little, and the buildings made of hardened sand gathered together to form a small tribe.

Gav was the ruler there.

Considering the ignorant times in which people were discriminated against and persecuted for the slightest difference, the current scene was surprising.

The reason for this was simple.

"Only me could use magic."

Magic made the early stages of civilization skip several stages.

There were many other tribes besides this place, but it was incomparable to the tribe of Gav.

As time accelerated, the image of that time began to flow quickly.

Gav's tribe quickly absorbed the surrounding tribes.

Many people gathered under him, and the birth of a small city-state was instantaneous.

Gav didn't age.

As much as any other skin, it was different from ordinary humans.

So it was special, and people started to worship him as a god.

Jamie narrowed his brow, but for a moment he continued to watch.

The city-states grew bigger and bigger.

It absorbed everything from neighboring tribes to city-states.

It was the beginning of civilization and the birth of a great empire with a history of a thousand years covering the entire continent.

"Changing my appearance, I continued to reign as king and rule the country."

Gav was a being who was freed from the bondage of lifespan in the first place.

no one noticed

In the beginning, Gav was the best wizard, and the wizards at the time did not have the ability to discern it.

But even a thousand-year empire was not eternal.

Unlike the previous emperors, where most of them were treated as saints, the emperors who decorated the last 100 years were incompetent.

Gradually, the nobility grew in influence, and problems arose everywhere.

Countless ducks were born, and the people suffered terrible suffering. Revolutions took place everywhere, but the emperor, who was reduced to a puppet, was nothing more than a puppet of the nobles.

Since they could move their troops at will, the weak revolutionary army was simply defeated.

Then came the 'Cult of the 12 Gods'.

They appeared at some point.

The followers of the 12 gods spread to different regions, caring for the suffering people and preaching their faith.

It was around this time that the empire, which was corrupt but maintained strong power, began to crumble.

"It was only 100 years. It took me a while to find out that the great empire I had worked so hard to build was turned out to be a sand castle."

The empire that ruled the entire continent was divided into dozens.

From then on, the continent was divided into five.

Central Continent ; Haron , Eastern Continent ; Kariren , Western Continent ; Arisha , Northern Continent ; Olvia , Southern Continent ; Brion .

The 12 denominations, which evenly divided the five continents, became the de facto hegemony of the continent.

There time stopped.

Jamie had a lot to think about.

'Should I believe this straight away?'

To be honest, it wasn't the picture I was expecting.

Since it was the beginning of the world, I wanted to show the era in which Diablo Volfir lived.

In fact, even then, it could not be called the beginning of the world.

Because there was history before that.

But what Gav showed was when he first pioneered a civilization on this land.

I thought it was normal.

If I had to call it a coffin of batteries, it was only called that by the people of this age. I didn't expect much.

There was only the expectation that we would be able to know about the previous era of civilization.

But... .

'Is it not that the 12 gods were not active from the beginning?'

The Millennium Empire knew because he had read the history books.

However, very few records of that time remain.

It was unavoidable.

Ten thousand years is a long time. It wasn't a very long time for Jamie, who had lived in a previous life, but that was something special about Jamie.

Ten thousand years was a time that would not be strange even if all records were destroyed.

So, of course, Jamie knew that the Twelve Gods existed from the beginning in the present world as well.

"Aren't you curious? Of course, you must have believed that there have been 12 gods since time immemorial."

Jamie looked at Gav and he continued with a bitter face.

"I was just a puppet. All of my life."

"I wish I could tell you the full story."

"Simple. God's messenger came to kill me, and I barely survived. But I thought I would keep being chased, and I thought there would be no end to this."

"I hid myself in a crown, you mean?"

"Because it is dark under the lamp."

Empires collapsed, and dozens of countries were created and then disappeared repeatedly.

"I changed into various shapes, and finally I took the shape of a crown. I turned off my consciousness and surrendered myself to time."

"Did it even fall into the hands of the first king of Seldam?"

"Well, yes. The first king was quite a wizard. I found out that I'm not unusual. That said, the synchronization rate was so low that I ended up just figuring out some of the history of the world. Anyway, that alone was a shock to him, and from then on, he called me the 'Coffin of the Batteries'."

Gav seemed lost in thought for a moment, then shrugged.

"Since then, good wizards have appeared in the Seldam Kingdom. Recently, Siegfried. That guy is pretty cool. I've never seen a wizard like that since me. until I see you But the synchronization rate was quite low."

'It seems that the synchronization rate is not proportional to the magic state.'

I had no idea how the tuning would work.

"Anyway, I hid like that and came to this day. The 12 gods no longer wanted to find out if they had lost interest in me."

"Why are you telling me this?"

It is very interesting to learn a secret that is difficult to understand.

However, he did not understand why he suddenly revealed a dangerous secret that could be called his own wealth.

And Jamie was feeling a little uncomfortable.

'This guy There is definitely something more to hide.'

It seems like he showed everything about himself, but there were a lot of sparsely missing parts in the past records I saw earlier.

Since it was a quick glance at nearly a thousand years of time, it was natural that there were parts missing, but all the core parts were lacking.

For example.

"By the way, how did the 12 gods approach you and warn you?"

Huh?

"And why did you warn me? Is there any reason to take you, who are doing well, from the throne? Rather, colluding with you would have made it easier to establish the position of the 12th Church."

"What is that ."

"It's strange. He suddenly approached you and told you to get out of the throne. Where would you like to ask?"

Saying so, Jamie raised her left hand.

Gav's eyes widened when he discovered the Pyro pattern engraved on his palm.

"You, why?!"

The Pyro is allied with Jamie.

I don't like it very much, but it was possible to actually check it out here.

Of course, it was impossible to have the power of a true saint because it was borrowed only in the form, but it was not difficult to obtain the will.

"After listening to everything you said, I made some inferences on my own. Listen."

" What is it?"

first. You know the previous world, the time ten thousand years ago. second. You are not what you are today. It's not just that the skin color is different. It is because you are parasitic and live on others. So, it could last ten thousand years. Perhaps a race that existed in an earlier era."

" And again?"

"Finally, why you could be the first king."

Jamie's eyes narrowed.

"From the beginning, he was a puppet of the 12 gods."

Gav closed his eyes, and Jamie continued.

"You have been given that mission. to pioneer a new civilization. You must have been entrusted with many things. Things like the qualifications to become the masters of the new world. Then, he must have made the mistake of offending the 12 gods. After that incident, I lost trust, and in the end everything I had was taken away. This is my reasoning, is there anything wrong?"

"How can you make such an inference? you are ."

"But, I still don't know. Why is the synchronization rate so high? Perhaps ."

Jamie asked him, dyeing his eyes purple.

"Do you know this color?"

Gav did not answer that question.

instead of answering.

"Give me your body."

Gav's entire skin was dyed purple.
