What's wrong with me, a mage, loving to farm?

Miya?!

Kroa's first reaction was to look at the Ring of Radiance behind her.

However, the power of the Ring of Radiance, along with the power of the illusory god, was completely shielded by a perfectly timed force, clearly the work of the woman in front of them who called herself "Miya".

This power was neither too much nor too little, and was controlled with exquisite precision.

The complexity is comparable to carving the entire continent of Zemuria onto elemental particles—it's that exaggerated.

Don't be too nervous.

The woman who called herself Miya wore a simple white robe, with only a blood-red stone on her chest, surrounded by gold.

"Oh, this is the Philosopher's Stone."

"It's equivalent to my divine status as a sage."

Miya noticed Kroya's gaze and smiled as she beckoned him with her finger.

The primordial gold that Kroya always carried suddenly appeared in the woman's palm. She stroked the gold and sighed:

"Ugh."

"It shattered in the end, leaving only the gold."

The gold seemed to tremble in her hands; this gold, which should have been lifeless, was trembling.

Sage Miya patted the stone, and it immediately quieted down. Then she looked at Chloe:

"The Ring of Light told you about the Philosopher's Stone, right? Hmm... then remember this well."

Ignoring whether Kroya would reply or not, she continued, "The Sky Ark was created at the cost of my soul and the Philosopher's Stone, an amplifier capable of unleashing the infinite power of the Ring of Radiance."

"To reverse this process, we need to collect all the fragments of the Ark and then forge them using a magic circle... Look, this is the magic circle!"

She picked up a twig and drew on the ground. No one knows exactly how she drew it, but in just a few seconds, she drew an extremely complex magic circle.

That magic circle... it's actually the Reverse Kabbalah Tree of Life!

Kroya was so shocked that she took a deep breath.

She pointed to the magic circle and said, "You must remember this! This is the only thing I have left to leave for the Ring of Light. With the Philosopher's Stone, He can break the shackles of the treasure."

There is a glimmer of hope for achieving greatness in the future.

And there's more...

Kroya could no longer remain silent and spoke up: "I hope you can tell the Ring of Radiance yourself that He is my teacher, and I hope He can let go of some things."

"No, no!" Miya quickly shook her head: "If I see Him in my current state, the Ring of Radiance will definitely try to revive me in some way, but I am just a shadow of the past."

I barely survived in the cracks by relying on the divine kingdom of the earth, but now that the divine kingdom is about to be destroyed, there is nothing left to accept me.

"Well, not even your Eden."

Just moments ago she was so intellectual, but now she seemed like a shy, hesitant person afraid to see her relatives, even a little apprehensive.

"It doesn't matter." While stalling for time, Kroya tried to break the power seal on Sage Miya: "As long as Teacher Miya wants you to stay, I will do my best to help, even if it takes countless efforts and time."

"Besides, there's also the legendary mage Ilister."

"Isn't she also your apprentice?"

"I have many, many friends, and the world is big, there will always be a way."

Sage Miya shook her head: "It's no use, and don't try to undo my magic. It's a network I wove with the spirit of a Protoss."

"Yes, it's the Celestial Spirit of the Celestial Spirit Imprint Technique."

"...You know a lot." Kroya paused for a moment, but still didn't stop deciphering the mystery: "I'm very interested in this. You should tell me more about it."

"Of course, let me think about where to begin." She casually found a place to sit down, frowned and thought for a while: "That's right, if there is a true creator in this world, or even the entire astral universe, then the Protoss is His firstborn son."

"These celestial spirits were born from the spiritual ripples of starlight, grew up listening to celestial music and the primordial poetry that could weave everything, and each one is extremely powerful, a being that can be called the law itself."

"By the way, do you know what the 'Poem of the Beginning' means?"

Kroa replied, "The laws of the world? But I feel that the Poem of Origin seems to record events from the past."

"That's right!" Sage Miya tossed out a firework that bloomed above Kroya's head: "It's about the past. Poetry and legends are carriers of civilization, a form of recording past events."

As far as I know, the Poems of the Beginning should be the poems that the world created by the Creator gave rise to because of His spirituality, beginning with the sunrise and ending with the sunset.

But it's a pity that since it's poetry, it means His world has ended. Alas, it's such a shame we couldn't witness such a wonder. Just how magnificent is the world of the Creator!

After sighing for a while, she winked at Chloe: "Fortunately, there were people like me who, in order to steal the Creator's authority, forcibly stripped the power of the seven luminaries from Him."

Time and space illusion.

The Ring of Radiance, the Azure Tree, and the Chest of Raygaren appeared before her. As the three most dazzling of the seven luminaries, they carried the power to maintain "existence".

"I was fortunate enough to obtain the Ring of Radiance. It was a story that was both complicated and simple. In any case, the Ring of Radiance was successfully created in the end. I was very happy and excited at that time."

I brought Him to the continent of Zemuria, a very special world, intending to begin our astral journey here—first and foremost, to get all the life I can protect onto the ship!

The scene continues to change.

It was a magnificent platinum-gold ark.

It carries and supports many worlds; a ring replaces the sun, radiating endless power. Even when it's stationary, it cannot be ignored, as if it were the center of the entire world.

Various races—dragons, elves, monsters, fungus people… even gods and Titans—stepped aboard the ark with smiles and laughter, hoping to embrace a brighter future with the ark's boundless power.

"But..." Miya's voice carried a hint of sadness.

The light from the ark attracted too many people who wanted power. You could see many gods, like locusts, mixed into the ark, and then an earth-shattering battle ensued.

If the Ark hadn't possessed such terrifying spatial abilities, even the entire continent of Zemuria would probably have been destroyed. And when all this happened, Sage Miya had already sacrificed her soul and a portion of the Philosopher's Stone to merge into the Ark.

The timing was so coincidental that she couldn't even give orders to the Ring of Light that maintained the Ark's energy; only some of the Ark's own combat systems were functioning.

The platinum ring floated in the very center of the ark.

It hung high like the sun, yet indifferently watched as its miraculous complex was devoured by locusts, its terrifying power, including the core that had been nourished by the soul of the Sage Miya and the Philosopher's Stone, being consumed.

Finally, even the base of the Ring of Radiance, the magnificent pillars and magic circle that resembled the sun, were destroyed. The terrifying magic power that the Ring of Radiance had been silently transmitting erupted instantly, and the Ark was destroyed.

The only thing capable of destroying the Ark is the Ring of Radiance itself!

That ark was built by the Sage Miya with countless hours of painstaking effort!

It was at that moment that Sage Miya finally had a chance to intervene. She asked the slumbering, self-aware ethereal god for help, which enveloped the Ring of Radiance and finally released the Ring of Radiance's binding system, allowing it to make its own decisions.

This was the first time that Kroa had witnessed the entire sinking of the Ark, and the doubts in his heart were finally answered. No wonder the terrifying power of the Ring of Radiance could not easily defeat the invading gods.

It turns out He hadn't started yet!

The only sage who could activate Him, Mia, was trapped.

Otherwise, with the power of the Ring of Radiance, those gods would probably have melted away one after another, like candles staring directly at the sun.

It was at this moment that Kroa suddenly realized.

"Is there a traitor among us?" he asked curiously. "Logically, you should have kept the final enchantment of the Ark a secret. If you were still alive then, those gods would have been as easy as ants to wipe out."

"That's what I wanted to tell you."

Sage Miya revealed a horrifying truth: "Eliste—I was too busy to care for her at the time. She left my culture flask and ran away, taking her lover's culture flask with her when she left."

That was the only little person in the bottle with whom she could completely merge in consciousness and body. She had Aphrodite's blood in her veins. The goddess of love could not truly love anyone; she could only love herself.

Just like that daffodil.

I was not blessed by fate and could not obtain the most beautiful love I longed for, but I wanted to give her a perfect life, yet she couldn't wait to escape from me.

Breaking that bottle also revealed to my enemies that I was not actually capable of restraint, thus initiating the war against the Ark.

Kroya was at a loss for words.

So all of this was actually a family drama?

It was because Ilster rebelled against the Sage Miya's arrangements for her that such a big incident occurred. No wonder she knew the possible crash location of the Ark and even arranged for her apprentices to investigate.

"You don't need to blame her."

"She is a product of alchemy, something I obtained by stealing Protoss technology. Her imperfections are acceptable to me; I even foresaw this day would come."

"So I paid for it with my life."

"Research always comes at a price. I left my home planet and went through so much. Now I have to pay the price for the bitter consequences of this knowledge."

Her tone became more relaxed.

"It's about time. I know you probably still want to ask Arcadia about your origins and the condition of your body."

"Hmm... Arcadia is a very interesting person, but he is also someone whose time has long been frozen in the past. He recorded a lot of poems and almost obtained the entire poem of the rainbow."

But he's already stuck in the past.

He desperately wanted to rebuild Arcadia again—a second rebuild, because his previous attempts had failed, and his actions had caught the attention of the last remaining Protoss elder.

So they put him in jail.

Kroya blinked. No wonder the priest said he would go to him after reaching the summit. It turned out he had been imprisoned by the Protoss. Those were Protoss!

Even if Cloa reaches the summit, is it really possible to go there?

Arcadia knew so many chapters of the Origin Poem, yet he was still captured.

But the Sage Miya did not offer further advice. Instead, she brought up the second matter: "Your arrival was both inevitable and accidental. It was Arcadia's last and first attempt. You can't go back."

"...Is there no going back?"

Kroya bit his lip. He firmly believed that once he reached a certain level, he would be able to return to his hometown, so that he could at least see the scenery from the past.

As a result, Sage Miya said that they couldn't go back.

That means there's really no going back.

His magic paused for a fleeting moment, but in that instant, he unexpectedly sensed a platinum-gold halo over there.

But the sage Miya was unaware that she was still continuing to answer questions:

"As for your body, it was created by Arcadia and another sage, modeled after the Protoss structure—I don't understand why the Protoss are so close to humans."

But you can rest assured that only someone like you, who comes from another unreachable world and knows so much knowledge that is equivalent to higher dimensions in this world, can master it.

Only the Protoss can defeat the Protoss.

As she spoke, her body began to crumble.

The divine kingdom of the Earth Mother Goddess beneath their feet finally began to crumble amidst the flow of the earth's veins, which meant that the life of Sage Miya was about to come to an end.

But this wise and intelligent woman looked on with anticipation.

"Ah~"

"I'm finally going to die."

"What happens to me after I die? Will I go directly into the ether or drift in the astral plane, turning into stardust after countless ages, as I previously speculated, and spending my remaining time on the surface of a star with a little bird, watching the moon?"

She rested her chin on her hand, "I'm really looking forward to it."

At that moment, a neutral voice came from inside.

"I'm curious too."

A platinum ring formed a portal, instantly fixing the entire divine kingdom of the Earth Mother Goddess within it, replacing the operation of divine power with the power of the Void Radiance.

Miya walked out of the portal step by step.

He was wearing a rather revealing performance outfit, which clearly showed his fair skin and well-proportioned muscles, making him look like a singer giving fans a treat.

"..."

Sage Miya's eyes widened immediately.

Just as she was about to hasten the disintegration of her body, a beam of light composed of countless elements suddenly appeared behind her, and a heroic female mage embraced her from behind.

Illist hugged her "mother" tightly.

The voice was unusually gentle.

"I've found you, Mother." (End of Chapter)
