Huh? Are they all real?...

The two parted ways after their brief meeting.

Moen was busy seeing Profitus off.

Prophet, on the other hand, pondered how to resist His demands for repayment.

-

In the distant spirit world.

The woman who called herself Eve had followed the two mysterious guests into the gate of flesh and blood ever since.

They have kept it in this quiet palace ever since.

Even with Eve's extensive knowledge, this palace was completely unknown to her.

Both the cultural style and the building materials were completely unheard of.

At most, one could tell that the architectural style of this palace was somewhat similar to that of Augustus' Rome.

She's been here for a long time.

During that time, the other party almost never contacted her.

Anyone else would probably be quite dissatisfied by now.

After all, she was supposed to be the core of their plan!

Such neglect is clearly inappropriate.

But for Eve, this was actually a good thing.

She even hoped that the other party would never come looking for her, leaving her alone in this nameless palace.

Because she is conflicted right now.

She agreed to their request, but didn't want to commit such a terrible crime.

All I can do is wallow in self-pity and sorrow.

However, her idea was clearly impossible to achieve.

As one of the core elements of everything, they won't really let her stay here doing nothing.

The little girl, who was dozing on a stone bench in the courtyard, was startled awake by the sound of footsteps coming from behind her.

Suddenly raising her head, she immediately jumped off the stool and darted behind Eve's long dress.

She knew who was coming, and even though it wasn't the first time she had seen those people, she still felt a deep-seated fear of them.

She didn't know why, it seemed to be an instinct.

Seeing the little girl hiding behind her skirt, Eve placed her hand on the top of her head to comfort her.

This pleased the other party greatly, and the inexplicable fear they felt also lessened.

After sensing that the little girl was gradually calming down.

Eve looked at the three people who were approaching the courtyard.

The three are of different races: a vampire, a dwarf, and a horned human.

The first two are nothing special; they are very common races, so common that it wouldn't be surprising to see them anywhere.

But the last horned man made Eve take a second look at him.

The Horned People are a race without faith; they are driven entirely by self-interest.

Once they find a new patron, they will not hesitate to abandon or even destroy their previous beliefs!

The spirit deer they killed in ancient times are the best proof of this.

In the distant, primitive era, the Horned People worshipped a being that, like themselves, possessed horns but was far more powerful.

The sacred deer is one of their many beliefs.

But after they discovered a more powerful being, they changed their faith and took advantage of the rituals to kill the spirit deer they originally worshipped.

They attempted to become stronger by devouring the flesh and blood of the spirit deer.

They also crafted the antlers of the sacred deer into the Sacred Deer Horn to symbolize their military power.

Therefore, even the prophets disliked the Horned People race intensely, as they were cruel, foolish, and prone to betrayal.

And now, a horned person has actually appeared in this force that is theoretically composed of the most tenacious believers.

Eve couldn't help but glance at him a few more times.

The other person seemed to know what she was thinking and lowered their head to say:

"I must admit that my people are far too ignorant and despicable. Therefore, as their compatriot, I sincerely hope to use my meager strength to redeem them from their mistakes as horned people!"

He was very sincere, but Eve still didn't believe him.

Because the horned man has said the same thing too many times.

However, she had no interest in investigating why the horned person was there.

She simply said with a sigh:

"I thought you wouldn't come looking for me again."

The horned man lowered his head and chuckled:

“We are well aware of your kindness and compassion, so we haven’t bothered you before, because we know you would have preferred this to happen. So we haven’t done anything wrong, have we?”

Eve fell silent.

She did hope so, but she never expected that the other party hadn't come to see her because of this.

She even naively wondered if something major had happened to them that had ruined their ultimate ambitions.

This was a question she couldn't answer; she could only sigh and say:

"I do not know."

The horned man didn't continue the conversation; he simply stepped aside and said:

"Then please come with us."

Finally, the horned man added two more sentences:

"Please forgive my indiscretion, because this is really too important for us and for the world."

"Therefore, I must reiterate to you once again, now that you are here, you must give it your all!"

Because it was Eve who came, their ultimate ambition had a chance of success.

But precisely because it was Eve who came, he had to be constantly wary of her regret.

After all, in their understanding, the name Eve represents pure goodness.

However, some of their companions believed that Eve's inscription in this world also represented hypocrisy.

But in any case, Eve's kindness is a problem.

"Don't worry, I know."

The horned man lowered his head and smiled, saying nothing more:

"Then I'm relieved."

If they could, they would not want to be enemies with Eve.

This is not only because Eve is the core of their plan, but also because of the body Eve uses.

Under the leadership of the Horned People.

Eve followed them through an incredibly magnificent ruin.

Yes, it is a ruin, but it is still undeniably magnificent!

Everywhere you look, there are colossal buildings tall enough for dragons to inhabit. Yet, despite their immense size, they are not at all intricately crafted.

For example, the huge stone pillars that can be seen everywhere are covered with exquisite murals, each one a perfect telling of an ancient story.

There's no need to give away the entire stone pillar; anyone who makes a rubbing of any one of the paintings on it would be a highly sought-after treasure in the modern world.

Because every single stroke of their carvings was created under the almost pathological pursuit of an eldest son.

Eve, who was walking among them, did not initially realize what this place represented.

What truly made her realize something was amiss was the little girl's voice, full of curiosity and surprise:

"Big sister, big sister, look at these floor tiles under our feet, each one is different!"

Only then did Eve look down at her feet.

As the little girl discovered, logically speaking, whether for aesthetic reasons or to reduce costs, the flooring should be made to look as uniform as possible.

Even if there are some differences, they are just simple application of patterns. Some even simply utilize the natural texture of the material itself.

The floor here is completely different.

Each piece still uses a completely different carving, but what's even more surprising is that it looks like a masterpiece painting by a famous artist has been made into a floor.

But each floorboard complements the others perfectly.

Even if someone just randomly places those floor tiles together to look at them, the feeling they get will be incredibly smooth and exceptionally beautiful.

You will absolutely not feel any disharmony.

This is art that is simply unimaginable to ordinary people.

But here, they have become reality.

It was only at this moment that Eve belatedly realized where she was!

"The Perfect City? Is this the Perfect City?"

To please the Creator, an eldest son once used all his talents to build a heavenly kingdom.

Amid the congratulations of the firstborn sons, this perfect kingdom was called the perfect city.

The horned man leading the way glanced at the ruins beside him and said:

"Yes, this is the perfect city that was destroyed by the Creator."

Eve couldn't help but look around at everything upon hearing the other person's affirmation.

"Just as the rumors described, it is more exquisite than I could have imagined. And this is only the extent of the ruins. I can't imagine how magnificent this city must have been when it was still intact."

The little girl didn't know what a perfect city was, but she knew it was destroyed.

So she couldn't help but ask:

"Big sister, why is this place being destroyed?"

Eve didn't know how to answer this question.

Because no one knows the reason why the perfect city was destroyed.

Perhaps apart from the eldest sons, no one can clearly explain why the Great Primordial One unleashed his thunderous wrath to utterly destroy this earthly kingdom.

"I'm sorry, I don't know either."

"Big sister, you don't know either?"

"Yes."

Eve smiled gently and then patted the little guy's head to express her apology.

However, the horned people in front of them provided an answer:

"Because the great Creator saw the ambitions of the firstborn sons in the perfect city, which angered the Creator!"

"The great Creator cannot understand why the guardians He has chosen would betray the duties He has given them."

"Therefore, it was the great Creator who destroyed this dark city that allowed evil to take root."

“The great Creator sternly rebuked the firstborn sons and made them kneel outside the city to reflect on their mistakes.”

"The Creator thought this would bring them to their senses, but..."

At this point, the horned man and his two companions turned around with utmost seriousness and said:

"But that became the beginning of betrayal!"

"The eldest sons only remember that the Creator destroyed their city and trampled on their hard work. They don't know what the Creator saw in this, nor do they know that everything they have is a gift from the Creator. In any case, they have no reason to betray the Creator's will!"
