I.. Am God?

"Do you know what this is?" Andre asked chillingly.

Ken then calmly answered, "It is the Purgatory Ghost Flame. Although it can't burn someone, it could torture a person's soul that would make the person feel an eternity of punishment."

"Then you do know what would happen if you do not tell me the truth?" Andre gazed at Ken with his deep and dark eyes.

"Yes." Ken nodded, "But I did not lie, so I don't have to fear anything." He added.

Andre then suddenly disappeared from his position and reappeared in front of Ken, "Then answer me! Although the Aztecs' souls are more powerful than the other races, it can't be that powerful to even know my identity as the Manifestation!" He grabbed Ken's collar and raised him high.

"Aztecs are more than you can think of them, Lord Ándras!" Ken retorted. "The Aztecs' minds do not dwell on this realm, but somewhere past its boundaries!"

Andre's eyes glowed with a sharp glint before letting go of Ken. He then snapped his fingers and materialized a small interrogation room around them. Ken's body flew and sat on a chair while Andre sat on the other side.

"Then, tell me what you know." Andre demanded with a serious tone.

Now being able to explain, Ken breathed in hard before explaining everything. "Although you have watched the world develop from its infancy to what it is today, some would still escape your attention. One of them would be the existence of our race."

"Our race came from a sliver of blood from the Creator when he was splitting his spirit in half to create you. You and our race could be categorised as siblings of the same origin."

"Get straight to the point." Andre retorted.

Ken then smiled. "Our race developed our Empire to great prosperity and outstanding strength. Although our race was strong enough to resist the Spanish invasion, we did not fight back just because of one thing; We do not need to, as it is fate."

"No, it's because I did not help." Andre sneered.

To that, Ken just laughed and replied, "Even if you yourself go and try to save us, an unbelievable scenario of the Spaniards just pouring in to colonize us would happen. The Spanish fleet would definitely double and double in size once the first fleet was wiped out. If the entirety of Spain is wiped out, then Portugal would be the next one to colonize us, down to the weakest colonies, just to destroy the Aztecs."

"How would you know that that would happen?" Andre asked with some speculation.

"It is because of our fate. Our race's souls do not belong to this realm but to the realm beyond it. We belong to the Creator's realm."

"Then, this Creator you speak of, where is he?" Andre suddenly asked.

"To that, I do not know. In fact, no one knows when he would return from his dominion." Ken answered, "But it is certain that he will return, for it is fate."

"Damn this fate!" Andre yelled with anger, "So, this, everything, is but a false existence?!"

"No, not entirely." Ken shook his head. "Everything came from the Creator's remnant soul. Its power came straight from his energy source. Once he returns, no one knows if he would let this realm exist on its own or reabsorb it to his body."

Andre was silenced, thinking of the possible things that might happen. After a while, he asked again, "Then, why did you want to meet me?"

"The Aztecs will join you in keeping order to the realm." Ken answered with seriousness. "Chaos is already at hand. It is nearing. At that time, billions if not trillions of lives would be lost, and that would only be the beginning. We don't know what will really happen, but we best be prepared." Ken finished and waited for Andre to respond.

Andre took a long time processing the information that he just received. After a while, Andre finally asked, "How would the Aztecs support me with their supposedly meager numbers?"

Ken smiled, "The Aztecs weren't wiped out." He answered, "There is a place in the center of the world that is in your blind spot where everyone stayed after the Spanish colonization. Our numbers are in the hundreds of millions and are nearing a billion. As long as you ask for our assistance, we will answer."

"Then, I have a request for your race." After some consideration, Andre looked at Ken straight in the eye. "What is it?"

"The shackles of the mortals have been erased, meaning that they can now use the laws and the mystical arcane as long as they know its existence. I want the Aztecs to secretly maintain order in the mortal realm while my foundation and the other gods stop the anomalous existences beyond their understanding."

"You can count on us, Lord Ándras." Ken nodded with understanding. After that, Andre sent Ken out of the realm as they came back inside Sueojangdae.

"Before I forget to ask you, Why did you want to meet me here?" Andre asked Ken with curiosity.

Ken chuckled and replied, "Namhansanseong is a very mystical place as it is a place where you cannot extend your senses."

"Another is that with this sequence of events, like you passing Wiryeseong road, everything will come down to a certain future."

He then became serious as he continued, "Another reason is because of something that is sealed here."

Andre thought about the first thing he said and nodded. Ever since Namhansanseong was built, Andre has never been able to peek inside, terrifying him. As a result, he sent some of his people to conduct research there.

When he heard the second reason, although he wanted to know what that future was, he didn't bother asking because he is certain that Ken would place his lips tightly sealed about the matter.

But when he heard the third reason, he abruptly narrowed his eyes with suspicion. Although he hadn't seen it for himself, he still knew it was a sanguine red orb made up of a blood-like substance. No one knows what the sealed item or being was, but some of the blood-like substance that dropped from the orb was discovered to be a very powerful blood coming from the Malakh, a being that came from a divine entity and an ominous entity.

The Malakh's blood has a very chaotic and violent energy inside them, so Andre was bewildered and amazed when he saw it being used as a formidable seal.

"What do you know about that thing?" Andre questioned.

"The seal, as you know, came from a being of pure chaos. So it is very chaotic and is definitely not suitable to use as seals, but that same feature directly countered it." Ken explained, "There is a rune that was written in the books of our ancestors that tackles that very problem; The Rune of Aetheyaris."

"You mean Aetheyaris, the Great Demon of The Glorious Seals, has a rune of his own?" Andre asked with doubt.

"Yes, and no." Ken replied, "The rune is only named after him by our ancestors, but it is not made by him. The Rune of Aetheyaris is from the universe beyond us, made by The Creator from the before-days."

"It is a rune that could break any seal that is made from chaos. Although the Malakh Blood Seal is very formidable, it wouldn't not stand a chance against the Creator's Rune that fully counters it." He explained with a hint of pride seen on his posture.

"Then.." Andre thought for a moment before continuing, "Come with me." He then turned around and walked down. Behind him, Ken stood up from his seat and rushed to Andre.

Below Sueojangdae is the Sunglyeoljeon Shrine. Inside were the researchers of the Foundation that guards the Malakh Pit, where the Malakh Seal was stored.

"President." The researchers bowed to him as greetings, "Do you like to go down?" Professor Lee Jung asked with uncertainty. Everyone knows how strict Andre can be, and for so long, he did not go near the perimeters of the place ever. So, when Professor Lee saw him in Sunglyeoljeon, he tested if their President was really scared of what's inside or if he's just cautious for everyone.

"Mhmm." Andre nodded, "I want to look at the seal." He answered.

Professor Lee Jung's eyes glowed with delight and he responded to him, "As you wish, President! Come with me!" He said with delight as he rushed inside the building.

Inside the Sunglyeoljeon Shrine, although it was somehow disconnected to the Palace because of its isolation inside the forest, many people still wanted to visit it but few people had the ability to go inside, with the restrictions placed by the Korean Government that was influenced by the Foundation.

The Shrine was the place where the mortuary tablet of the late king and founder of the Kingdom of Baekje is contained.
