The Seven Throne

Ancient Book

Tonight, when everyone goes to dinner. I decided to go back to the Empire and leave a message.

I need to get information as soon as possible. I'm a little worried if the Gods are re-involved with this world.

It is not impossible that they will try to corner me again, meanwhile, I must prepare fully.

The way to restore my strength, I need to find it.

...

A soldier whispered to Goudon.

"What! Alif went back to the Empire? Why so sudden?"

"He said that there are urgent thing that need to be resolved as soon as posible"

"Send a spy to follow him. Inform me of his developments."

Goudon was suspicious of Alif's sudden movements. Meanwhile, the Head of the Temple who was watching Goudon's change also sent orders to investigate Alif secretly.

The Head of the Temple muttered, "This boy is too difficult to guess, we cannot control it. Send a message to the higher-ups, we need a way to control him."

A faint shadow moved from its side and disappeared.

The Holy Temple is not as simple as it seems. In addition to the Head of the Temple who leads at each temple, there are several groups that move quietly and carry out secret assignments.

Their job ahead is to attract the hearts and sympathies of people. While those who work under are people who make it easy for every way for the Holy Temple to expand its influence.

Nowadays the Holy Temple is even able to influence the King's decision. The seven main kingdoms have at least one branch of the Holy Temple which has a great influence on society.

Only the Empire was clean from outside influences. The Empire, led by the Empress absolutely, was inviolable.

Everyone considered the Holy Temple to not have any power, even the Kings did not consider them a threat.

In fact, the Holy Temple has gathered strength for a long time, stronger than any Kingdom. But they choose to remain silent and gather more, only at the right time they will show their strength.

The strength of the trust of all people, of course, they will get more support because of the trust that is deeply rooted in the community.

...

When I returned, the night was back.

I went straight to the Empress's room after arriving. There is no time to waste.

"Alif, are you back?"

I was surprised the Empress could realize my existence so quickly.

"Please tell me about the true legend of the Golden Dragon Emperor"

For some reason, the Empress looked relieved with a faint smile.

"So you already know it. Go to the Holy Territory, there you will find everything you are looking for"

The Holy Territory is an area that is fully managed by the Holy Temple, there is the center of the government of the priests.

Going there means suicide for me.

"Actually, who made that legend?"

"Founder of the Holy Temple"

"Why they make a fake legend?"

The Empress laughed as if she had heard a joke.

"Fake, huh? So that means you already know your identity and meet them. Hurry and leave now, because right now their top brass is busy with the last time, this is a good opportunity to infiltrate."

Wait, how come ... Who exactly is in front of me?

"You..."

The Empress smiled softly, "Don't worry, I will help you. Please return to your position immediately. We have been waiting for a long time"

We? Who?

The Empress forced me to leave immediately before I could ask again.

All right, I have to go back and get my horse.

...

"Isac, help Alif to find the information that he needs. Make sure no one is aware of you"

"Yes, Your Majesty. As you wish"

Isac immediately disappeared like a night's shadow.

"Anisa, I know you eavesdropped on mom's conversation"

Anisa's figure came out from behind the door, her face looks a little upset.

"Mother ... Let me help too"

The Empress sighed and smiled, "I know you are worried about your brother, but believe in Isac, he will definitely be able to carry out his duties well"

Despite saying that, Anisa still could not feel calm.

"But I ... I ..."

"I understand your anxiety, however, you two must immediately take back your position as a God as soon as possible. An Evil God wound cannot possibly heal in just twenty years at Gods Realm. So there's no way he will act for at least a few hundred more years in this world."

The comparison of the time of the Gods Realm with this world is 1: 100.

...

Sacred temple archive room.

"Hey, it's time to change. You can rest"

"Ah, finally. It's tiring to keep standing in front of this door."

"Psst, watch what you say. Priests can scold you"

"Okay, I'll leave it to you"

One of the guards left and was replaced by another. After the soldier went far enough, a shadow appeared from behind the soldier on guard. His long arms reach out to his neck and immobilize him.

"One successfully overcome"

"Rise up, answer my calling"

While the soldier was unconscious, his body was controlled to keep him looking like he was on guard.

The shadowy figure is Alif, while Isac emerges from the void like a ghost.

"Let's go in"

"Wait, there might be a trap behind this door. We better not open it"

What Isac said made sense, there was no way a Holy Temple that had enormous power left the task of guarding the door of their important archive room with just one soldier. They must have prepared more than that so they only needed one soldier.

"Then how do we get in?"

Isac began to cast a spell distortion of space in front of them. Dimensional holes connecting their place with the inside of the archives.

With that way, the two of them can enter without opening the door.

"Why not use it since the Empire?"

"There are requirements that need to be met. The distance connected cannot be more than five meters because it is not perfect. So this can only be done when it is close to the destination"

Alif and Isac entered the dimensional gate and were in the archive room.

Inside the room, the bookshelves were neatly lined up with the dim candlelight.

"How do we find what we need? Too many books here"

"We can only look for one at a time, but we don't have much time."

Suddenly Alif had some kind of idea in his head.

A circle of shadow circles spread across the floor, a hundred people appeared from it.

Alif ordered the Lunarian Werewolf to help find the information needed. Of course, Skeleton Dragon did not come along, the aura of the Undead would only make them found out faster.

Alif started searching the middle bookshelf.

The book he took was a notebook.

"The Gods Calendar of 1200. We see a dimensional distortion over the sky. Seven orbs of light come out from it and hit the earth. They call themselves Heavenly Dragons."

This is the first record of the Heavenly Dragons descending to earth.

"God's calendar of 1201. They are very kind and help us prosper the community"

"The God Calendar of 1202. We divide the territory of this continent into seven and build a kingdom together with the Heavenly Dragons in each region"

It seems like this is a story of how the legends of the seven kingdoms were formed.

"The God Calendar of 1205. Space distortion again occurred, this time a black-haired and dark-skinned man, almost like darkness itself. He taught us how to use magic."

Who is referred to in this story? Another person from the God Realm?

"God's calendar of 1206. Entire continents experience chaos and the great war because of power struggles. Seven kingdoms are now divided"

It seems like the development of magic makes human greed even greater.

"God's calendar of 1210. The Heavenly Dragons became fierce and began to attack every kingdom, the seven Kingdoms were forced to work together against them"

...?

Did they sacrifice themselves to become criminals just so that the seven Kingdoms would not quarrel with each other again?

"The God Calendar of 1210. Humans suffered a great defeat, the Heavenly Dragons began to be called Sinner Dragons and hid themselves. The seven kingdoms focus on repairing every damage."

"God's calendar of 1260. Space distortion is happening again for the third time. This time a mysterious group of people hovered above the sky. They were divided into two groups and facing each other. One group was led by black-haired men who taught us magic, the other group was led by men handsome blond hair man that exudes a majestic golden aura "

"The battle between them took place and destroyed almost all the continents in this world. In the end, the group of blond-haired men excelled, while the black-haired group was seriously injured. The strength and soul of the blond-haired man were sealed and separated into seven holy weapons by black-haired men. While his body disappeared somewhere. The group that lost the leader began to split, they spread throughout the world to escape "

After understanding most of the notes, Alif began to think. "So that's the real story, but who is the blond-haired man? Could they be the group that went with me to this world?"

These thoughts kept crossing Alif's mind and gave birth to even bigger questions.
