I.. Am God?

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. Though, it is not its only use. With the way of how the buildings were built, using the energies of the Earth as another way to protect the place, it goes to show that it is also one of the reasons, together with Sueojangdae and Yeonmugwan, with why the Namhansanseong remains standing 'till this day.

Walking to the entrance, Andre and Ken were led by Professor Lee to the green gate with a Yin-yang symbol in the middle. No one, not even the government, had any idea what was inside of Sunglyeoljeon when it was prohibited by the Foundation to be visited by anyone.

As a result, the only place that tourists can visit would be everywhere but not the Shrine. The only way to see the Shrine would be from satellite broadcasts. Namhansanseong was also prohibited to be entered by the Foundation troops because of the Shrine's existence and Andre's inability to extend his senses here. Limiting the people near it would lessen their losses once something dire happens.

This occasion was only an exception as; First, he didn't expect Ken to summon them here, and Second, he is here, so he would be able to protect them if needed.

Professor Lee then turned to them and said, "We're going in." He then pushed the gate open, revealing the sight inside.

Ken's eyes widened with disbelief as he looked inside, "What.. is this?" He uttered with shivers. Andre looked around with solemness before walking inside. Breathing in, Ken followed him in.

What could be seen in a satellite is not even close to what was truly inside the Shrine. A Sanguine red color covered the entire place. In the middle of the ground, a huge pit almost encompassed the entirety of the land while below it seemed to be where the red light originated from.

"This place reeks of an unpleasant aura." Andre muttered.

"The seal is below. Currently, it is being held by the Spirit Chains that we developed. Let's go." Professor Lee said before holding onto the ladder and descending below.

"Let's not waste time with this." Andre interrupted before jumping down, shocking Professor Lee. "President!" He screamed. Suddenly, he felt something tugged at him before he fell down from the ladder.

Closing his eyes, accepting his circumstances, Professor Lee thought to himself, "I guess this is it." Tears fell down his cheeks when he suddenly heard a voice.

"What the hell are you crying at?" The voice asked. "Am I already in purgatory?" He asked back.

"Don't drag me with you." Andre rebuked and slapped the professor's head. "That hurt!" Professor Lee whined while stroking his aching head.

Andre waved his hand, catching the falling Ken that followed them. "You really trust me, don't you?" He chuckled.

"You yourself can send me to other dimensions. Such things as catching someone from falling would be expected from you." Ken laughed while landing down on his feet.

After assuring that the two weren't harmed, Andre looked at the glowing blood orb that is the size of the MOA Globe. Binding it were blue chains that were rooted at the walls.

"Do you know what to do?" Andre glanced at Ken. In response, Ken nodded before taking out an old book from a sling bag behind him.

"You know what, you can go out now, Professor Lee. It would be very dangerous with you in here." Andre suddenly spoke and turned around, looking at the professor that was behind them.

"But.." "No buts." Andre said before waving his hand, throwing Professor Lee out of the Shrine.

"You can continue." Andre said as he looked at Ken.

Ken then took out a brush similar to a calligraphy brush and waved it in the air. Although there was no ink, numerous runes appeared in the air and started to slowly float to the blood orb. After a little more than an hour, golden runes of different sizes have finally surrounded the orb.

Ken was fully covered in sweat and was panting. He then looked at Andre and asked, "Lord Ándras, I would now need your help."

"Mhmm." Andre nodded, "Do what you need to do."

Breathing in, Ken clasped his hands together, with the brush in between. Magic circles started to form and surround his hands. Andre then walked towards Ken and raised his two hands, placing his two palms on his back. Andre's veins then turned gold, transferring a huge amount of energy to supply Ken's rapid consumption.

A couple of minutes later, Ken finally raised his hand that was holding the brush and started drawing intricate strokes, slowly forming an incredibly complex rune that radiated a suffocating aura.

As if feeling danger, the blood seal reacted and tried to assault Ken, but was ultimately stopped by the runes that were surrounding it. The Seal of Malakh desperately attacked with all its might, corroding numerous runes in the process. Andre then raised his right hand and used his finger to draw on the air before launching the newly made rune to supplement the corroded areas.

The battle became fierce, with Andre constantly transferring energy inside Ken and drawing runes to defend against the Seal's attacks. As a result, Andre was forced to go all out, transforming into his Godking Form while fighting against the seal.

"I didn't expect this seal to be this powerful." Andre panted with exhaustion.

Suddenly, a translucent figure manifested above the seal, startling Andre. "Leave this place, Godking. Because you are someone we acknowledge, I am giving you face by letting you leave unharmed."

"You!" Andre glared at the figure with hatred, "Well, well! I didn't expect it to be you, Little Sanguine King." He retorted coldly. Remembering about him, Andre became irritated and furious.

The Sanguine King was one of the most ancient terrors of the land. He once slaughtered more than half of his age's civilization just for amusement. As punishment, Andre and the most powerful beings of that time teamed up together to fight against him. It took them three years to finally defeat and disjoint him into different parts, separating it to numerous places far from each other.

"Hmph." The Sanguine King snorted, "The thing that is sealed here is useless for you, Godking. You don't need this." He persuaded Andre once more.

"If you don't like me doing this, then I'd be even more pleased to do so." Andre quipped with amusement. The Sanguine King then snorted before saying, "Then, you leave me with no choice."

The Sanguine King raised his hand and gathered an intense amount of magic that was surrounding the place. He was going to throw it at them when he was interrupted by something.

"In the beginning, there was Void. Then came the Creator. With the origin of Creation and the laws placed by Him, nothing inside the realms will go in my way!" Ken chanted with power before drawing the last stroke needed for the rune to be completed.

As expected, as soon as the last stroke was placed, the rune lit up with outstanding brilliance and shot itself towards the Seal. The Sanguine King shrieked and threw the magic that he gathered at the flying rune. Andre, who was forgotten, sneered and aimed at the projectile before clutching his palms.

Like magic, it suddenly compressed and vanished, letting the rune go past it and successfully hitting the orb.

"No!" The Sanguine King yelled before vanishing. The blood red orb then expanded. Andre waved his hand upwards, summoning a thick energy barrier. A second later, the blood seal exploded violently, creating a huge mess of blood all around. When the seal was released, the sealed item was, of course, shown to everyone.

It was an ancient codex that looked like it passed through numerous eras with its bronze cover with images of runes carved all over it. It had an uncorporal sphere barrier the size of three basketballs surrounding it that seems to be protecting the codex. Andre dispelled the barrier protecting them while looking at the codex with shock. "Impossible. This.. isn't this thing already gone from existence?

Ken, who was gazing straight at it, tilted his head in confusion. "Isn't this.. an old book?" He then turned to Andre and saw his incredulous expression, "Do you know what the book is?" He asked.

"You don't know this codex?" Andre asked back without looking at Ken, "There's no record of this item in your prophecies or histories?"

Ken shook his head, "No. Why? Is this book important?" He gasped and turned to look at the book again.
