【…】

The train from Fuyuki City to Kyoto Prefecture lurched and swayed under the sky like a white dragon traversing fertile fields. In his private carriage, Lu Kang slowly opened his eyes, and his life of more than a hundred years flowed through his mind like a fleeting glimpse, from birth to growth, from his acquaintance with Attila the Hun to their separation—and then to his first meeting with the young girl Morgan.

And then, after finally achieving eternity, the few decades he spent in seclusion in Avalon, a life of quiet tranquility.

Lu Kang remained calm, silently gathering all the memories and information he had obtained from the projection of his true soul. He could also feel that the 'Crown of Martial Arts: Michael,' which had been formed for decades, was shining brightly deep within his soul.

It hangs beside Metatron's crown, slightly lower, but still on par.

Although it is inferior in terms of specifications, it is essentially the same.

One is the result of condensing the faith of countless esoteric religions in the present world; the other is the result of condensing the martial arts of an era and forging the 'chivalrous spirit' of an era.

Although the latter ultimately gained its angelic form by relying on the former's abilities, it is essentially a highly pure spiritual condensation—a soul derivative of Lu Kang, the 'crown' of the soul.

Metatron, the vice-king of the Kingdom of Heaven, the scribe of heaven, and the lesser Jehovah, as recorded in the Book of Enoch, which is not recognized by the mainstream church.

"Michael, the archangel recognized by the mainstream church records, the battle angel who wields the dawn."

Although it was an idea that Lu Kang had from the very beginning.

However, at this moment, he also seems to be getting closer and closer to that powerful church that occupies most of the spiritual and religious grounds of modern people.

He had no doubt whatsoever—

If one day, one reveals 'Michael' to church personnel, one will gain another wave of 'faith'.

Furthermore, the foundation of the church was divided and gathered into the crown of Metatron.

This is exactly what is meant by "one thing serves multiple purposes" and "killing two birds with one stone."

Although limited by the 'form' of the soul, currently only one crown can be worn at a time, if multiple 'crowns' are created in the future, it may be possible to replicate many of the archangels in church mythology and then 'integrate' them.

Of course, this is still the same point. Although the 'Crown of Michael' is powerful and its specifications are undoubtedly at the level of the divine realm, even belonging to the middle level or above in the divine realm, such achievements are not enough for Lu Kang to achieve a huge vertical breakthrough; it can only expand horizontally.

His triple-cycle system, after imprinting the mystery of an ancient era, naturally made some breakthroughs, which were not insignificant in a strict sense, but only allowed him to firmly establish himself as a god.

From the original arrival.

Until we truly set foot in the central region.

It stands firmly among them!

This is already powerful enough. You should know that even in the ancient times before the Common Era, when the gods could still manifest, there were not many gods who could reach the level of a god. Even the most outstanding mythological heroes of the human world could not surpass this barrier during their prime.

As far as Lu Kang knew, even in the mythological era, this was a pillar of a pantheon.

This is not a huge breakthrough.

Moving forward steadily perfectly aligns with what Lu Kang is pursuing.

"Now, I am imprinted with nearly two thousand years of mystery!"

Thickness is not the same as the length of time a person has lived.

It is also more relevant to the times.

The mystery of a single year in some eras is equivalent to the depth of a decade or a century in other eras.

Leaving aside the period at the end of the Tsarist Empire, which was not much different from the modern era, the earlier Hundred Years' War in France, the Heian period where gods, demons and monsters gathered, and Camelot in Britain where fairy fantasies remained—especially the latter two—all endowed Lucan with a mystery for hundreds and nearly a thousand years.

—Perhaps it is precisely because of the crucial importance of these two eras that the simulator requires an extremely long cooldown period, whether it is the Heian period or the Britannian period.

This time it will even last longer than the last time.

It seems that this is especially true for older and more crucial eras.

But his flaws and shortcomings are indeed being gradually addressed.

The mystery surrounding each millennium-old quantity is itself a threshold.

Two thousand years is an even bigger threshold!

—After all, going back two thousand years from the modern era, that was already the end of the Age of Gods.

This is the phenomenon of 'divine return'.

Just like the over two-thousand-year-old mystery possessed by Beowulf the Golden Wolf, which can directly nullify most modern magic.

Now, even setting aside the highly mysterious quality and quantity brought about by the triple cycle, Lu Kang's accumulated knowledge alone is enough to reach the realm of gods.

Triple divine realms, five times the synergy, and fifty times the crown.

Add to that its nearly two-thousand-year-old mystique.

This is the fundamental reason why he stands firmly in the 'realm of gods' and is able to rival the 'higher gods'.

Such a gain is not large, but it is certainly not insignificant either!

If there is a next time, Lu Kang will officially break through two thousand years.

At that time, even if there is no major breakthrough, there will at least be a period of mysterious price increases.

—To some extent, this is also why Lu Kang only lives to the maximum lifespan of a human in each life, instead of relying on mysticism to prolong his life.

Those who are born and die in an era highly associated with mystery, and who live a complete life, actually gain more mystery than those who continue into the future and begin to experience the loss of mystery.

Here.

Lu Kang's life's achievements were perfectly converged and contained. Silently, along with the magic circuits and the divine thought circuits that had doubled in size compared to before, all the spillover was perfectly neutralized. More than five hundred magic circuits, even without considering the highest level of quality and quantity of the true ether they produced, were already at the level of a monster, more than twenty times the average level of modern magicians.

Five hundred divine thought circuits bring about a significant increase in computing power!

then.

More magic circuits bring greater output to the divine body, giving it an even greater capacity on its already massive foundation.

More spells are inscribed deep within the spirit of the gods, almost converging into a vortex that seems to nurture all things—with this vortex, one can also attempt to inscribe higher-level mysteries—such as 'power-level grand magic'.

The larger-scale divine thought endowed Lu Kang with the perfect control over all these mysterious 'wisdom'.

He closed his eyes and then opened them again.

After a brief, mysterious fluctuation, it perfectly established its 'foundation'!

In the meantime, he noticed the passage of time in the real world; it was no longer dusk than the morning when the train departed, and nearly five or six hours had passed.

in between.

He also sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere outside.

That is...

A sudden uproar!

The sealed carriage doors were suddenly flung open, a voice rang out, and a figure immediately pressed forward.

"Oh...this distinguished VIP passenger, would you like any special service?"

The newcomer had a clear, melodious voice with a lingering, captivating quality.

Under that soft, pressing pressure against him, Lu Kang sat upright, but merely glanced sideways and said:

"You seem quite relaxed."

"They're even cosplaying as flight attendants now—"

"What, is the 'war' over?"

He looked at the figure pressing down on him—

She sat astride the chair, her dark blue uniform skirt stretched taut over her rounded breasts, her black stockings sinking into the gaps of the leather chair along her voluptuous curves, and her flight attendant uniform bow tie askew, wedged between her full breasts, while the buttons of her white shirt bulged out at a dangerous angle.

The skirt suit hugged her hips, rising as she knelt, the sheer black stockings highlighting the soft flesh of her thighs, her knees pressed against the seats on either side of him.

Her slender, jade-like fingers rested on his shoulder, and in the shadow cast by the brim of the conductor's hat through her hair, her purple eyes shone with the light from the train's roof.

She was smiling seductively at Lu Kang's face, her brow adorned with a touch of vermilion, alluring yet carrying an aura of saintly compassion.

There is no doubt that he is the right person.

It was the news that Lu Kang had only received that morning: the "Heavenly Demon," Kichijou-in, who had launched a mysterious war declaration against the six "Divine Organ Forging" families in Kyoto.

Chapter 232 The Ferocity of Kichijou-in Kihara, The Current Situation in Kyoto, and the Divine Alliance

Although they knew of Kichijouin Kihara's immense strength and terrifying level of mystery—even if he wasn't a 'beast,' just based on the nearly two thousand years of mystery he possessed, there were only a very few beings in the modern world who could contend with him.

Such a thing absolutely does not exist in the modern Far East.

The probability of such a monster appearing in Kyoto Prefecture is even lower.

However, small size does not mean non-existent.

Lu Kang was well aware that because of his arrival, this ancient city called Kyoto Prefecture, built more than a thousand years ago, was no exaggeration to say that it was the center of a storm vortex.

so.

This guy just declared war this morning.

Why are you suddenly on this train?

To this, Kichijoin Kihara remained unmoved, only smiling with lowered eyes, still 'compassionate' yet 'alluring'—

"War? How can this be called war?"

"It's just a child's sandplay game, Your Excellency..."

"So, you've already resolved this?" Lu Kang raised an eyebrow. He simply looked up at Jixiangyuan Qihuang's oppressive attitude and naturally enjoyed it—he neither deliberately pursued it nor rejected it.

Although he never experienced it in real life, he had experienced many real-life scenarios in the simulator.

In reality, he also enjoys this kind of natural 'unexpected' experience even more.

"Those guys didn't even give me a chance to 'shine'!"

Kichijou Inori leaned close to his ear, her red lips beneath the brim of her hat brushing against Lu Kang's ear as she responded again. Her plump thighs, protruding from the edge of her stockings due to the forward movement, rubbed against Lu Kang with a soft, rustling sound.

He glanced sideways and wondered if this was how 'to show one's talent' was used.

But when I think of Kichijoin Kihara's horned 'demon' appearance, I can't help but think that it actually fits the description quite well.

He thought to himself that he would end the war within half a day...

"It seems that even the mysterious system created by Seimei has weakened beyond recognition after so many years!"

The body is forged from divine organs, using the fragments left behind by the gods as its mysterious source. In the Heian period, it could not only produce mages of the divine realm, but it could also create beings of the level of great Onmyoji—equivalent to high-ranking magicians of the monarch level or above in the Western magic world, capable of performing great magic on their own.

If this can be inferred, then the ancient Shinto society with its six divine organs forged into bodies, and the six 'Grand Masters', would naturally be able to crush Kichijouin Kihara without any doubt—but it would be impossible for them to do so so quickly.

It's even more impossible that they wouldn't need to adopt the form of a Heavenly Demon.

But this is natural.

After the arrival of the Star Vanguard and the disappearance of the Age of Gods, the continuous loss of mystery became a foregone conclusion. After thousands of years of change and drastic environmental upheavals, even the most brilliant and talented person could not remain unchanged for eternity solely through their own legacy—not even King Solomon could achieve that.

The original foundation left by Solomon has actually been largely depleted in modern times.

Many of the families that used this ancient technique as their foundation have long since disappeared into the annals of history.

What has emerged today is mostly innovation by later generations.

And obviously.

The Far East lacks this kind of innovation... to be precise, it lacks an academic environment dedicated to research, like the Clock Tower at the headquarters of the Magic Association.

In the meantime, Kichijoin Kihara gave a brief, almost intimate, description of the process—though it was really not a process at all.

However, immediately after the challenge was issued, various 'societies' joined forces.

It was none other than Kichijoin Kihara, who, with extremely simple hand seals, crushed the elites excluded by the six major societies with overwhelming force, without even revealing his true form, cutting them off as a monk or nun.

She even has plenty of time to put on this uniform and 'seduce' her cult leader.

Lu Kang only thought about it briefly and felt that it was a terrible sight.
