UNDYING WARLORD

[Sun God’s Gate to the Lowest of Karandor’s Six Blazing Realms. Conditions to enter not met.

-All Stats <500+>, Advanced Fire resistance,

Special permission granted to <Believer of the Sun>!]

The Gate in front of him was made out of liquefied flames.

That was the best term Dilan could find to describe the appearance of the Gate which was ten meters in diameter.

The notification screen about it was nothing special and Dilan couldn’t care less. He didn’t want to enter any place related to the Sun God.

Only one piece of information attracted his attention!

‘There is nothing written about the Gate being temporary or permanent, just that the gate belongs to the Sun God.’

Dilan was not sure what kind of restrictions the ‘Believer of the Sun’ had to enter Milarn through the Sun God’s Gate but he could be certain that no Tier-2 existence was allowed to enter the newly awakened planet yet.

At least, that was what Dilan concluded from the information he had collected until now.

Making a big detour around the Sun God’s Gate, Dilan planned on venturing deeper inside the Sun temple.

But after he walked less than 100 meters deeper inside the temple, Dilan sensed that something was off.

The temperature around him decreased drastically. Instinctively, he turned around to take a look at the Sun God’s Gate.

‘Is it fluctuating?’_-.

That was not it!

The Sun God’s Gate was not only fluctuating but also devouring the heat from the surroundings.

Its suction force was quite high. Dilan felt cold all of a sudden and worry gleamed in his eyes.

‘What the hell is happening? Was someone on the other side of the Sun God’s Gate informed that I eradicated the entire branch of followers of the Sun temple? That cannot be it, right?’

Dilan ignored his earlier plan to raid the Sun temple. He made his way back outside the temple, ignored the unstable Gate, and stepped down the steps of the Sun temple.

At that moment he also noticed that the heat created by the walls and the flames of fire were getting pulled toward the Sun God’s Gate.

‘Are they trying to send over reinforcements while not having enough energy to do so?’

Dilan had no idea what was actually going on, which was why his mind came up with some theories on the spot.

In the end, it didn’t matter what was true and what was not. He could clearly see and sense that it was possible for him to leave soon.

‘Less than a minute and I’m free!’

Exactly 58 seconds later as Dilan reached the outer parts of the town, the walls of fire were extinguished and Dilan was free to roam outside.

However, just when he took his first step outside the Sun temple’s town, his steps froze in place as his head turned instinctively to the mountainside.

A moment later every single hair on his body stood on its end and his gut feeling told him that something terrifying was about to happen.

And it was just at this moment, a seemingly ordinary moment on an ordinary day after the Primordial Ascension that a terrifying roar reverberated through the mountainside, Rian, and the Shikan plains.

The ground shook, forcing Dilan to the ground as he covered his ears to prevent his eardrums from bursting apart.

His heart was beating wildly while his breathing became rapid, his entire body began to twitch, and his eyes widened in terror as the deafeaning roar seemed to pass by him.

Simultaneously with the passing roar, his head turned toward Rian.

Rian was several kilometers away from him.

However, due to his great eyesight, it was still possible for him to see how the gigantic skyscrapers collapsed on the ground. Rubble was flung through the surroundings and dust was stirred up, clouding his vision for a while.

Yet, all of this was blown away by the roar that never seemed to end.

Only moments later, even the damaged buildings behind Dilan began to give in as well.

Time seemed to slow down and seconds turned into minutes as everything in the surrounding was slowly beginning to crumble until there was nothing but ruins left behind as the terrifying roar finally ended.

Only five seconds had passed but the destruction a simple roar had caused was devastatingly high.

Dilan’s mind was befuddled but he was still able to see that numerous weaker monsters had collapsed on the ground. White foam spilled out of their mouth and they twitched as if they were under unbearable pain.

To say that Dilan had a bad feeling was an understatement. Terror struck him and his mind got cleared up. He recalled that the Sun temple was only supposed to be a minor task in his to-do list before he wanted to leave with the others.

In fact, according to his old plan, he should have already left the city by now!!

‘I wasted way too much time here…I hope the others are already ready, or even better, it would be best if they already left.’

Ignoring the miserable condition of his body, Dilan activated [Thunder Step] before he rushed back to Rian.

On the way, he found numerous collapsed monsters around him but their existence couldn’t be less significant to him as right now.

His mind was in turmoil and his body was under even more pain as was the case when he was fighting.

Earlier, the adrenaline and the loss of his rationality had numbed his pain but right now, this was not the case.

He grit his teeth rushed back to the Rian mountainside hospital and was relieved to find out that everyone had already finished packing up.

However, due to the terrifying roar, more than half of Dilan’s group had collapsed on the ground. They were currently being transported in the buses and were squeezed inside them before they would set off.

The Tier-1 Ascenders would run around the buses, protecting the survivors from monsters.

Upon seeing his people and knowing that they were still fine, Dilan couldn’t help but sigh in relief.

Blood trickled out of his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears, and the injuries of his legs had torn open once again but that did not matter.

Everyone was fine, and that was the only thing that mattered to him.

The moment the others saw Dilan, their first thought was relief.

However, seeing the paper-white Dilan, who seemed to have lost several liters of blood, and continued to bleed, chills ran down the spines of everyone who got a glimpse of him.

Williams rushed to him with several Ascenders who had healing abilities.

The Ascenders surrounded him and used their abilities however often they could.

Never in their life had they seen Dilan in such a bad state, and that was saying a lot, considering that he had been in a near-death state on several occasions.

The Ascenders, who had healing abilities, could clearly tell Dilan’s condition.

Thus, none of them could help but look at Dilan in shock, and wonder how he was still alive, could stand on his feet, let alone walk around.

In their opinion, it was already a miracle that he was alive, to begin with.

Yet, seeing that Dilan was still able to walk, some Ascenders truly began to wonder, whether Dilan was still human or if he had advanced to become a higher life form.

“What happened to you? Will you be fine? What happened to Mason? One of his friends told me that he sneaked out to follow you. Did you see him?”

Dilan didn’t want to answer any of these questions, and they actually didn’t have time for small talk.

However, upon hearing Mason’s name, Dilan bit his lower lip before a bitter expression appeared on his face.

That was the first time anyone had ever seen Dilan with such an expression. It was filled with sadness, anger, frustration, and the guilt of having been unable to protect someone.

“I…He…he died…”

That was the only thing Dilan could say. He didn’t have the energy to retell the harrowing incident that had left him shaken. It was already difficult for Dilan to speak a few words, let alone to reveal everything that had happened.

Yet, just a look at Dilan was already enough to figure out that their leader had tried his best in order to protect Mason.

Even if one didn’t like Dilan, or didn’t think highly of him, everyone could tell that Dilan wouldn’t end up that badly…except if the worst possible scenario had occurred.

Nobody said anything to him, and Williams merely nodded his head. He hadn’t been close to Mason, and Williams’ mind had already accepted that every single one of them could die at any moment.

That was what the world had changed to.

Either you are strong enough to survive every possible hindrance…or you would die, and your name wiped off from the records of history.

This was the bitter truth about the new world…about Milarn, and about the entire Universe!
