The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"Tsk, more or less? But my thanks go beyond that." Monger's smile widened.

He slashed open a wound with his claws, spraying blood into the fireplace and setting the wood ablaze.

“At least, the king didn’t let you witness the scene of a son killing his mother.” The blood-red flames rose, illuminating Munger’s twisted and cold face.

"He wasn't isolated?" Montgomery stared blankly at the blood flames burning in the fireplace.

"Didn't the Dark Moon also exist? Then why should it be isolated? As long as we don't destroy the world left by the King, our connection will remain."

Monger stared at the bleeding arm, completely mesmerized. In the dark, sunless sewers, only the being known as the "Mother of Truth" responded to him.

The more wounds he had, the redder the blood, the more frequently his mother praised him. In Munger's eyes, his real mother was just like his own mother.

In Yu Jin's view, both Meng Ge and Meng Ge's personalities had been twisted beyond recognition.

Even Ember felt that Munger was more normal; in such an extreme environment, it wasn't unacceptable to regard an evil god as one's mother.

But the Mongot Embers really don't understand. Being treated like this by the Golden Dynasty, they still want to protect the Golden Tree. Is this just a super invincible Stockholm syndrome?

In comparison, Yu Jin could only express his admiration and respect.

“Never mind, Montgomery.” Seeing that Montgomery was about to say something, Griffith immediately reached out to stop him and shook his head.

Looking at the crimson void above Monger's wound, Gefulei could sense a chilling, joyful, and indescribable feeling emanating from it.

He had once felt this aura in his wife, Marika; it was the aura of a superior being, unique to the gods.

"call--"

Ge Fulei assumed a horse stance, and white mist billowed from his mouth.

"Thump—, thump—, thump—"

The long, resonant chimes echoed through Godwin's mansion. There were no clocks in Godwin's house; it was the rumble of Godwin's heart that made the sound.

"Hiss~" Wisps of white mist rose from Ge Fulei's torso, his skin quickly became congested and red, and the sound of the blood flowing could be heard even with the naked ear!

“Sherlock, I am merely fulfilling my duty as a father,” said Griffith, turning his head slightly to address the Lion Chancellor who appeared behind him.

"Roar..." Serloshu felt uneasy under Gefuli's gaze. After letting out a low growl, it shrank back.

"Drink!" Ge Fulei roared, and a powerful wind rose up with terrifying force. This aura spread outwards, the earth cracked, and all things retreated.

This is the unique aura of Griffith, representing the pinnacle of human nature.

“The power of the King…” Mongot gripped the cursed sword with both hands and plunged it firmly into the ground.

"My house!" Godwin looked at the roof that had been blown off, feeling half heartache and half shock.

The sheer presence of Gefley caused Montgomery and Godwin to take several steps back.

“Father…Father.” Monge said in surprise as he looked at Ge Fulei walking towards him.

Only then did Mongo realize that demigods and kings were not on the same level at all.

However, he wasn't one to be trifled with. Monger's eyes hardened; if Gefulei wanted to attack him, he'd pay the price!

Then a warm, large hand patted his head again. The hand wasn't as natural as before, as if afraid of hurting Monger's head.

“My child, I have never abandoned you. Do you know that the first person to see me like this was your mother?”

Griffith, steaming with heat, smiled at Munger. Then he turned to the red void not far away and said, "The... Mother of Truth, is it?"

"Thank you for taking care of Munger. I was wondering when we could meet. At the very least, I'd like to thank you in person..."

Before Gefulei could finish speaking, the blood-red void rift gradually disappeared, eventually leaving no trace.

"Haha, looks like they don't even look at me." Ge Fulei scratched his head, and his intimidating aura vanished.

This relieved Montgomery, Montgomery, and Godwin. The sheer presence of a fully powered Griffith alone exuded immense pressure.

It's hard to imagine what those higher-level beings are like.

“Father…” Munger felt the breath of his true mother gradually fading away, and he was on the verge of tears.

"Don't be moved! This is what I owe you. I was useless back then, and I couldn't beat your mother in a fight. Now that she's gone, let's see who dares to bully you!"

Gefle waved his hand, his loud voice leaving Monger speechless.

“Thank… thank you, Father.” Munger nodded stiffly. He was now thinking about how to reawaken the True Mother.

Just when he was at his wit's end, someone patted him on the shoulder.

Monger turned his head and saw Godwin sneaking over.

To be honest, Monger was quite uncomfortable seeing Godwin acting so suspiciously.

His elder brother was like dazzling gold, forever bright and forever righteous.

"You like Michaela?"

"Ah."

"this is for you."

Godwin handed over a notebook with neat and beautiful handwriting that was pleasing to the eye.

Monger flipped through it and saw that it contained Michaela's preferences and habits.

"Although I don't quite understand your hobby, consider this compensation for not being able to help your younger brother before."

"Michaela is quite shrewd. He wrote this in a hurry, so please don't mind."

As Godwin spoke, he flashed his signature smile.

Gold, freed from its shackles, shines even on the son of evil.

Chapter 263 My First Failure?

2023-10-30

Looking at the heartwarming scene before him, even the usually stern-faced Montgomery couldn't help but smile.

The golden tree is gone, and the world has entered a new era. Now, all Montgomery misses is his long-lost family.

"really?"

A voice, neither too loud nor too soft, suddenly rang out beside Montgomery. He looked down and found that a Golden Citizen had appeared beside him at some point.

“Supreme…will?” Mongot’s pupils contracted as he looked at the golden people before him and asked uncertainly.

"Besides me, who else would dress like this?" The Supreme Will yawned. What a boring family drama, what a waste of his time.

"What are you doing here?"

Griffith turned around, his hair standing on end, his fingers curled into claws, like an enraged lion.

In fact, a lion was perched on his shoulder; it was Serlosh, who was equally enraged.

"I'm not doing anything. Why are they all so hostile towards me?" The Supreme Will remained calm and composed.

He shrugged, as if the people on the border weren't very friendly.

But he clearly hasn't been involved in the border area for a long time, and the messes in the border area are largely caused by the people there themselves.

"We have no ill intentions toward you; we are simply flattered that you have condescended to grace our humble abode."

Godwin stepped forward and pulled his father behind him. The Supreme Will is an existence that cannot be resisted; if possible, it's best not to have any conflict with Him.

"A humble abode?" The supreme will surveyed the surroundings. Scattered pieces of furniture, walls reduced to ruins, and a roof that had vanished without a trace.

"Hehe, that's quite a vivid description." The Supreme Will raised an eyebrow and said calmly.

"The purpose of my visit, well... how should I put it?" The Supreme Will lowered its head and pondered for a moment, then looked at Mongot, who was gripping the cursed sword tightly beside it, and said, "I'm in a good mood, so I'm bringing you some warmth."

"Thank you for your kind offer, but I don't think we need it." Godwin refused without even thinking.

Would the Supreme Will have good intentions for no reason? Godwin didn't believe it, and he even doubted that the Supreme Will could be in a "good mood".

"Rejected so quickly?"

The Supreme Will grinned, raised his head, and said to Montgomery, "Mongomery, do you have any regrets?"

“No,” Montgomery shook his head in response.

"You're quite good at deceiving yourself." The Supreme Will picked at his ear, speaking with a mix of mockery and annoyance.

Godwin and Grafley's wishes have mostly come true. Even Munger's relationship with his family has improved considerably thanks to Mungert's matchmaking efforts, but what about Mungert himself?

Do people who simply want to love really not crave anything in return?

"Would you like to go inside the Golden Tree?" The Supreme Will blew on non-existent earwax from his finger and said casually.

At this point, Montgomery could no longer remain calm.

……

"????"

"What did you say?"

Inside a tiled house in the alley of Chihu Rock, Yu Jin stared in disbelief at the Thousand Rock Army soldiers before him, seemingly unable to believe what he was hearing.

"Mr. Ember, congratulations on being hired as a toilet cleaner in the General Affairs Department. You can report for duty starting tomorrow!"

The armored soldier stood with his gun in hand and repeated the announcement from Yujingtai in a measured and methodical manner.

After saying that, he took out a paper notice from behind him and handed it to Yu Jin.

Yu Jin mechanically took the paper, and then he saw the armored soldier in front of him approach with a smile and say:

"Brother, you've finally arrived! The General Affairs Department's toilets have been clogged for ages!"

"Do I look like someone who flushes toilets?" Yu Jin put away the notice and asked the armored soldier.

Upon hearing this, the armored soldier sized up Yu Jin, then shook his head. Yu Jin looked more like a history enthusiast, and a hardcore one at that.

"Alright then, let's go! I get annoyed just seeing your General Affairs Department people. I'm telling you, Seven Stars, don't let me see them on the road. If I do, I'll turn them into mops and use them to flush the toilets!"

"You..." Before the armored soldier could say anything, he saw Yu Jin stuff the notice into his arms.

"Brother, I'm giving you a chance. Go!" As soon as he finished speaking, the soldier felt everything go black.

Then he saw his own figure rapidly moving away from the embers.

Huh? Why is the scenery in front of me receding?
