I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha.

Accepting the divine treatment bestowed by the gods and following the Kingdom of Heaven offers no future. On this matter, the elders of various schools of thought expressed a remarkably unified view.

But the wizards were also very clear that if they did not accept the olive branch of the gods and went head-to-head with the Kingdom of Heaven, it would be like throwing an egg against a rock. So they discussed this matter for a long time.

One of the elders said, "Roland mentioned it before. Regarding this division of the divine kingdom, the Heavenly Kingdom intends for us to be completely independent of the Heavenly Kingdom."

If we can maintain our own civilization system, then accepting the gods' offer for now, and waiting until our magical technology is sufficiently advanced, will we have more options in the future?

Another elder nodded and said, "Technology is developing faster and faster now. In my areas where I am not an expert, I can't even understand what technologies have been developed."

I think that as long as we do a good job of disguising ourselves, given the circumstances in Heaven, they might not be able to figure out what we've developed.

Most of the elders who make such statements are White Wizards.

What they said makes a lot of sense. The wizards' future potential is terrifying, so terrifying that even the wizards themselves don't know how far their civilization can develop.

It may only take a few years for some seemingly impossible mystical paradoxes to be completely deciphered and even written as axioms in textbooks for junior students.

Therefore, in the eyes of wizards, the gods were never completely invincible. They were merely temporarily invincible.

Therefore, if wizards were given enough time, it wouldn't be impossible for them to not only defeat the Kingdom of Heaven, but also turn all the mad gods in heaven into their apprentices.

However, the White Wizards' views were met with strong opposition from an unexpected person.

"It is impossible for the Eastern Realm to be completely independent of Heaven. Not to mention the gods, even I two days ago would not have agreed."

Olivia said, "The reason why this proposal I have repeatedly put forward was able to pass in the High Council is because the gods have also gradually realized that the Kingdom of Heaven needs new gods and new blood."

In order to allow these new blood to integrate into the Kingdom of Heaven more smoothly, the gods even granted them many seats in the high council, the throne of the chief god, and even a divine kingdom and divine authority.

He desires that your fresh blood, flowing into the ancient veins of heaven, will awaken this sleeping behemoth, allowing it to regain its vitality.

But if the wizards remain completely independent of Heaven, unwilling to become new gods or integrate into the community, how can Heaven draw upon the power of new blood and revitalize itself?

Roland once made a point that I think is very true—as long as the Eastern Realm becomes new blood and joins the Kingdom of Heaven, it will not be the Kingdom of Heaven that will be changed, but the wizards. You will gradually become new gods, just like we did back then.

And the civilizational legacy of wizards will be completely severed.

“I don’t know the specifics of what my husband and Miss Olivia were talking about. But I think this matter can actually be understood in a simpler and more straightforward way.”

Catherine said, "We are a vassal state under a feudal empire. The emperor has now granted his nephew the right to autonomy and has also married his daughter to this new king, making her the new queen consort."

Upon hearing this, Olivia gave Catherine a very displeased look.

Catherine continued, "The Emperor's dowry was indeed very generous, and he certainly granted him considerable power. But what he hoped for was that his good nephew would implement reforms on his territory, not establish a republic or start a revolution!"

The wizards all understood immediately.

The Heavenly Kingdom, or this empire, hopes that the successful governance experience of the 'Emperor's Nephew' in the vassal state can be promoted to the entire empire in the future, thereby changing the empire's corrupt status quo.

Instead of hoping that the 'emperor's nephew' would extend the revolutionary experience from the vassal state to the entire empire, and then have the nobles dragged down from their pedestals by ordinary people and sent to the guillotine!
The wizarding system is essentially a new thing that arose from the irreconcilable contradictions between heaven and the various human realms.

The two are in a relationship of renewal and replacement, they are opposites, and one of them must disappear!

The Heavenly Kingdom's "amnesty" was essentially a form of "suppression" of the revolution.

The Kingdom of Heaven will indeed allow wizards to conduct a new era based on its system.

But we will never allow the Heavenly Kingdom's system to be completely replaced by the Eastern Wizards' system!

Because the gods grew up within this system, once the system of heaven disappeared, they had no place to stand.

Therefore, if Heaven tolerates even the slightest existence of a wizarding system, all the gods will be dragged down from their pedestals and will all perish.

Therefore, once the wizards join the Kingdom of Heaven, their system will inevitably disappear in the future. This disappearance may be very gentle and subtle, or it may be very cruel and bloody. But no matter what the process, the Eastern Wizards will surely vanish in the future.

Instead, a new god was created.

In conclusion, the history of the great sages of Heracles accepting the offer of amnesty has already shown people one outcome.

Anyone who accepts the offer of amnesty or surrenders will not have a good ending.

"Ever since I accompanied Princess Catherine to the Forbidden Library and saw those mad books, I have changed my previous pro-war views."

Brianna said, "The gods of heaven have an absolute advantage in military force, an advantage that wizards can never catch up with. Therefore, this cannot be forced."

But it would be pointless for us to stay and develop.

Therefore, I believe we must leave as soon as possible. The longer we stay here, the slimmer our chances of leaving become.

An old man from the Black Abyss chimed in, "Elder Brianna is right. I believe the best time to escape is now. Once this window of opportunity is missed, the passage between the human and divine realms will be fully opened, and the world will fall completely into the hands of the gods."

At that time, no one will be able to escape the clutches of the gods.

But because of the existence of the Book of Madness, we cannot leave immediately.

Therefore, we must find a way to remove the Book of Madness from this world and take it to heaven before Roland's baptism and deification.

The words of the old Black Abysses made the eyes of the wizards from various factions light up slightly.

Roland had previously mentioned that the gods had personally stated their desire to reclaim the Book of Madness in the future.

The Kingdom of Heaven already has this idea, so as long as the wizards have a way to send the Book of Madness to the Kingdom of Heaven, the Kingdom of Heaven will definitely take it back.

Once the Light of Dawn deactivates the massive bombs called the Book of Madness on his body, the wizards can go wherever they want.

The views of the old Black Abyss members resonated with the wizarding community, and even Olivia felt that the plan was more reliable and feasible.

Only O'Reilly didn't want to do that, because it wouldn't be fun. So she kept giving Roland meaningful glances, hoping he would say something.

She hoped that the wizards would follow her and Roland's plan, and that everyone would work together to give the gods of heaven a good fight.

Roland remained silent, seemingly waiting for someone to speak.

He wanted to know what that person was really thinking deep down.

At this point, the discussion had gradually reached a consensus, and the person Roland had been waiting for finally spoke.

He was the purest Twilight Wizard among all the Twilight Wizards present.

This true Twilight Wizard is none other than the progenitor of the Twilight Wizards, the Thousand-Eyed King.

This is what the gods of heaven refer to as the 'Twilight God'.

He raised a profound question and also offered an ultimate solution. That solution was the ultimate weapon summoned by the 'Old Cult of Alaye' and the wizards of the East through generations of exploration of the mysteries and research into occultism—the Truth of Doomsday.

Or rather, His Majesty King Leonard believes that calling it "the truth of the apocalypse" is more appropriate than calling it "the apocalypse butterfly doomsday".

According to Leonard, based on the wizards' latest mystical theories, the 'Truth of Doomsday' can be controlled just like all other forces of truth.

This power of truth is also different from the real 'Aleye Butterfly Apocalypse'.

The latter, used by the god Alaye, is a completely uncontrollable apocalyptic force.

The former, however, is based on the research and magical power of all wizards, using the Light of Dawn as its magical center, and is the apocalyptic truth summoned by Roland as the medium and the ritual presiding officer. (End of Chapter)
