Huh? Are they all real?.

Although she was rejected, the goddess Selene was not angry.

She looked at the elf girl in front of her with increasing curiosity.

For the first time, a small gasp of surprise rose from the crowd.

Why should I refuse?

This girl would have instantly risen to the top of the world, and might even have become a future queen, had she accepted the offer.

"Why should I refuse? Aren't you my husband's courtier?"

The goddess's gaze, filled with curiosity, fell upon the moon-white longbow that Lily was carrying on her back.

After a moment of gazing, the goddess understood.

They actually drank the Holy Water of Rest. No wonder I didn't notice them at first glance. The Chosen One, a follower of the Shadow Sun.

That's not surprising; as a member of the gods' kin, she couldn't very well agree to it herself.

But what kind of problem is that?

The great-granddaughter of the Golden Flower Lord was able to marry off to an unknown, ordinary dwarf.

The followers of the Shadow Sun naturally have the choice to pursue their own lives, after all, this girl did want to agree.

It's not possible right now, but it seems I'll have to go to the Sacred Tree Forest later.

He obtained Lily as a gift from the Shadow Sun and then presented it to his king.

My upcoming schedule has already been arranged by the goddess.

If I drank the holy water of rest, was it made with my husband's blood?

The moon goddess became increasingly interested in the elf before her.

She withdrew her hand and smiled:

"I understand. I respect your choice, Lily, right? I'll remember that. We'll meet again someday, little one!"

Chapter 229 The Eldest Son Returns (3k)

There's not much to say about what happened after that.

They revisited the place, the crowds paid homage, and they met with the envoy.

When night falls again.

For the first time, the goddess Selene did not stay by Moen's side, but went straight to the kitchen.

She began preparing dinner for her loved one using the groceries that had been rushed to her door.

For immortals, food is no longer a necessity, but preparing food for others, especially for their loved ones, seems to have always been their greatest hobby.

Also, because she was worried that she might have become rusty after not cooking for many years, Selene started spending a lot of time in the kitchen very early.

Moen wanted to go along to see what was happening, but Selene refused him and locked him out of the kitchen.

So Moen could only come alone outside the palace and quietly watch the night view.

The pocket watch was opened, and the terrifying crack was still as menacing as ever.

After gazing at it for a moment, Moen closed the pocket watch and put it away.

He then began to think about what he had seen during the day; it was neither Aurora nor the vampires nor the Seven Hills.

Instead, it was that line of seven Yana geese, a lone flock of them.

Seven is the sacred number of that eye, and Salz, who succeeded him, abolished the sacred number of seven as a prophet.

So, did that guy come back to life?

First Anstice, then Sals

After frowning slightly, Moen couldn't help but sigh upon learning the answer.

You guys are prophets, not cockroaches!

Can you please stop being so disgusting?

So the question now is, where is that guy?

Given his entanglement with me, we're bound to run into each other in the future, and if it's him, it's unrealistic to expect to find him through extraordinary means.

The prophet must die.

This was the only thing Moen insisted on, even though he almost met with a disastrous end.

Of the three troublemakers, only the most difficult one remains.

This put Moen under immense pressure.

The prophet is the worst guy who could cause everything in Moen to collapse in an instant.

However, upon closer reflection, the most important thing now is not how to find him, but to prevent him from making in-depth predictions about his particular identity.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Moen decided to give him something big to intimidate him.

The Earth Ring was taken from Moen's hand.

This represents one of the Nine Commandments of Humanity, a powerful force that is also a remnant from ancient times.

If there's anything that would make that guy feel deeply apprehensive.

That's the only thing left.

The blasphemous feast that the eldest sons had buried deep in history.

Moen turned and walked toward the Torino king’s forge. The Torino king was a dwarf, and dwarves were most skilled at forging.

Therefore, the King of Turin also had his own forge.

Everything Moen needs is there.

Balin, who had been summoned, accompanied Moen to the Turin King's forge, puzzled.

This place was originally sealed off, but if it were Moen, the dwarves would be willing to reopen it.

Anyway, the King of the Moon only used this place back then.

As the dusty door was pushed open, the extinguished furnace was revealed directly to Moen.

The many dwarven masters who entered with Moen looked at the ancient relics with burning desire.

This is the pinnacle of dwarf-made technology.

Bahrain, also looking around with envy, asked Moen:

"So what do you want to do? If you want to build something, we'll preheat the furnace for you right away."

"Thank you for your help. Let me pick out some things for myself first."

The dwarves immediately nodded and began to work, and the flames from the earth's core, after being silent for countless generations, once again flowed into the dwarves' pipes and furnaces.

The scorching heat instantly filled the entire room.

"Hahaha, there's absolutely no problem!"

Seeing the perfectly functioning forge, the dwarf masters burst into laughter.

At the same time, they became increasingly eager to see what the Moon King would create.

When Moen brought all the items, the dwarves were somewhat surprised.

Because the other party only brought a medium-sized forging hammer and a dagger.

What do you want?

Moen looked at the dagger and hammer in his hand and said:

"I'm sorry I can't explain, and also, could you please leave now?"

Moen wanted as few people as possible to know what he was doing, both for his own safety and for the safety of others.

The dwarves had no objections. After confirming that the fire was burning properly and would not go out on its own, they bowed and left.

After Moen was the only one left in the huge forge.

Moen slashed his palm open towards the furnace in front of him.

Blood was spilled into the furnace, and flames roared up.

But the temperature in the room suddenly dropped, from scorching hot to bone-chilling cold.

This contrasted sharply with the raging flames that had almost completely heated the oven to a bright red.

Seeing this, Moen placed the Earth Ring on the anvil without further hesitation.

This is a powerful ring that is theoretically almost impossible to destroy by normal means.

Because its source of power has extremely high specifications.

The ring itself also resists all changes.

However, he still has a way to destroy Moen.

Blood was still flowing from the hand that had been deliberately cut, but Moen was completely oblivious to the stinging pain as he used his own blood to draw a complex rune on the anvil.

After confirming several times that there were no errors in the inscription, Moen placed the Earth Ring on it.

He clenched his fist and dripped his blood onto his body.

The inscriptions began to burn, and the ring shone even brighter.

Moen slammed his hammer down with a fierce blow.

With a clanging sound of metal striking metal, one of the nineteen rings that Lilith had painstakingly crushed shattered instantly.

And there is absolutely no sign of recovery.

It didn't attract any attention whatsoever.

Before the inscriptions burned out completely.

Moen took a deep breath and scattered the ring fragments into the cold, burning furnace.

The anomaly occurred at that moment; the instant the ring fragment fell in, the entire furnace began to extinguish, starting from the point of impact.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the furnace fire that filled half of the forging hall was completely extinguished and frozen.

This isn't a failure, this is a success!

When the final eye returned, the entire Human Union manifested a miracle from Him.

And when Moen's ring finally burned and returned.

The whole world heard one voice.

That's the sudden beating of the heart.

Although it lasted only a moment, the sound undoubtedly reached everyone's ears.

Even the deaf heard the sound at that moment.

This applies to every living creature: elves, horned people, humans, giants, orcs, dwarves, and goblins.

The sound of his heart beating was deafening.

Strangely, no one seemed afraid of it; they were confused and puzzled, yet felt unusually at ease.

Nobody knows why, because nobody has ever encountered anything like this before.

People could only speculate that this might be a sign of the return of some supreme being.

Some have gone even further, saying that the Primordial One is about to awaken.

They claimed that what they heard was the heartbeat of the Creator!

But as to whose voice it came from, neither mortals nor gods and kings knew.

Beneath the bustling city of the People's Federation.

As people thronged the streets and alleys, they were also discussing with great enthusiasm the extraordinary sights they had witnessed during the day.

That is the manifestation of the number seven.

Some say it's a miracle, others say it's some guy's prank, and still others think it might be the return of a wandering AI.
