Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“The Arctic! At the end of the world lies a divine artifact of the creator,” said the mystery man, “It was made for the God of Civilization! Once you find the divine artifact and Alva and Wilbert become half-gods, you three as half-gods with the divine artifact will be able to match up against the power of a true god. This is not only the key to your journey of becoming gods, but also to you developing and guarding civilizations!”
“When you become gods, the true gods will intervene. However, bound by the Agreement of Gods, gods and saints shall not wield power greater than level seven in the main world,” he continued. “Any level seven mythical being shall leave this world, as well. Therefore, you will only need to withstand one attack. True gods shall be repelled and bound by the force of the world and will be unable to attack again. However, you will also be repelled from the main world, and will no longer be able to remain there.” After speaking these words, the mystery man departed, leaving Frank, Alva, and Wilbert in shock. This man was like an unpredictable illusion, disappearing and leaving no trace behind. The trio immediately realized that they were still not even close to becoming true gods.
His words also put them under quite a lot of pressure. The Magic Crystal System would repel the gods. The God of Civilization, which was nothing like theirs and had invaded their belief system, was a threat to them. They had considered this before, but they never thought that a god would be ready to intervene in the most crucial moment, defeat them, and take their divine personalities and god names.
“Can we trust him?” Wilbert asked. He wore a tight suit. The buttons were almost ready to pop because of his chubby body.
“I don’t know. But he is right. We have made a lot of moves. Gods are definitely watching us already. The only reason that they have not attacked us yet is that they are waiting for the right time,” Alva reasoned.
Frank said, “Then there’s the possibility of a divine artifact from the creator hidden at the end of the world. It would be perfect for us. I am definitely intrigued. Whether true or not, it’s worth a trip to find out.”
“But if it’s true, then who is he? Which god is he?”
“The known male gods are the Master of Night, the God of Knowledge and Truth, The God of Earth and War, The Master of Storms, and the Dragon God of Time, Adolphus.”
“Wait, we need to consider side-gods as well. Demi-Emperor of the Underground, Cetisius, the Great Angel of Balance, Faross, and some other side-gods that we may not know about.”
The longer the trio thought about this, the harder it was for them to figure out. At last, Frank spoke up and said, “Whatever. We’ll take the Ahenaten Kingdom first. The seas are crucial for our future plans. We need access to the waters. Once the Magic Crystal System is started there, we can then reconsider all of this. As long as we stick together, even a true god cannot harm us. The Church of the Dark Night, worshipping the Master of Night in the Hollyma Kingdom, and those stinky, greedy nobles and priests, shall all pay for what they have done!”
In Year 472 on the San Calendar, the Sumerian Freedom Union declared war on the Ahenaten Kingdom. With the leadership of Frank, Alva, and Wilbert, a massive number of airships, steam-powered steel chariots, and troops armed with witchcraft mana rifles entered the Ahenaten Kingdom.
In the battle of Maples, the new steam chariots rushed to the front like monsters. With countless battle airships and cannons, explosions blanketed the battlefield. The smell of alchemy explosives was pervasive. Even with the protection of the supernatural Bloodline Knight army, the Ahenaten Kingdom was defeated.
100,000 regular army forces and 50,000 mercenary soldiers were flattened in Maples. The balance of war shifted in the Sumerians’ favor.
Alchemy battleships traveled through the Crete Canal to Urabell. Urabell, which was constantly in rebellion, and had a huge number of civilians who were unsatisfied with the state of the Ahenaten Kingdom, surrendered to the Sumerian Freedom Union quickly. The entirety of Urabell turned to their side overnight. In just one night, the Ahenaten Kingdom lost the huge Urabell Province.
“Nobility is dead. The golden blooded are contaminated with darkness and avarice. The royals no longer have compassion. They have lost the sword of kingship, and with it, have lost the favor of God,” a scholar in white robes shouted in the street, holding a book aloft.
“The Ahenaten family with their golden blood has lost their honor. The new era has arrived!” said the scholar. Many civilians followed his lead and rushed out into the streets. Mercenaries hiding in the Urabell Province started to move as well.
The Ahenaten Kingdom crumbled much faster than anyone had expected. Concealed beneath the powerful facade on the surface, its systems and regulations were rotten. Countless commoners of the Ahenaten Kingdom resented the nobles and royals. They encountered the Sumerian armies and battleships and joined their forces immediately. Everything went unexpectedly well for Frank and the others.
The new magic crystal airships roared across the sky of the Ahenaten Kingdom. The sound of witchcraft steam revolvers echoed on the battlefields. When Sumerian steam chariots rushed into the Ahenaten Kingdom’s cities, many workers and girls welcomed them with waving flags. Soldiers stood on chariots and welcomed the cheers. Troops walked into Ahenaten with guns on their shoulders, welcomed by everyone.
The Sumerian flag of freedom flew everywhere throughout the Ahenaten Kingdom. Facing this huge army of steel, the Ahenaten Kingdom’s ancient kingship and nobility system which was supported by mercenary systems had quickly been losing ground.
During the last battle, the gigantic sky fortress appeared above the Ahenaten Kingdom. Its dark shadow covered the royal capital. Battle airships covered the sky, and their sounds filled the air.
When someone on the ground raised their head to look, they would see nothing but the giant, whale-like sky fortress and the battle airships flying out of its back. This was the moment of defeat and death for the Ahenaten Kingdom.
Frank, Alva, and Wilbert stood on the giant sky fortress. Frank looked down at the entire Ahenaten Kingdom through the clouds. The royal capital and the mountains and lands of the Ahenaten were beneath his feet. His heart was filled with great ambition.
“With the capture of the Ahenaten Kingdom, we now have a massive amount of land and citizens. More importantly, we can open the trade channel to the seas, and the roads to the Red River Plains and the orc kingdom. Also, the magic crystal system shall step into the world.”
Alva said with great excitement, “We have removed the last obstacle on our journey!”
The Ahenaten Kingdom fell. The golden bloodline, the Ahenaten family, crossed the Red River Plains and escaped to the orc kingdom. The bloodline of kings, which had existed since the very beginning of the human kingdoms, fell from its throne.
The Sumerian Freedom Union took control of the entire Ahenaten Kingdom, taking more than half of the central province. Its power and territory doubled almost instantly, shocking the entire Alen Continent.
The Sumerian Freedom Union settled in Kings’ Port under the Andromeda Mountain of the Ahenaten Kingdom. King’s Port was originally a wide marsh beneath the snowy mountains but later turned into a port city with the development of the Ahenaten Kingdom. The Sumerians took over and sold their magic crystals and magic crystal alchemy equipment to the entire Alen Continent and overseas.
Sumerian trade ships set sail on the sea one after another. The world now knew about the Sumerian Freedom Union, the magic crystals, magic crystal alchemy equipment, and the magic kingdom with a magic crystal system in the central province.
The world was ecstatic about the magic crystal system and the magic crystal alchemy products from this kingdom. Humans, orcs, sahagins, and fairies all started to purchase the magic crystal alchemy products from the Sumerian Freedom Union.

Merchants from all over the world gathered in King’s Port under the Andromeda Mountain. Not only from the distant Sean City-State Alliance, but from the kingdoms of the Temple of Sky (the Pusuote Kingdom had crumbled after Cetisius’ death), the Hailuga Kingdom of the sea, the wizard kingdom, and the Colossus Kingdom, too. These were kingdoms from across the oceans or other continents.
All races could be found here. Trade ships of different styles from all kingdoms and races could be seen in the port.
“First-generation magic crystal industrial production alchemy bench. Only ten are available. Start bidding!” The outdated first-generation magic crystal industrial production alchemy bench was sold after many bids from foreign merchants.
“Magic crystal small steam car from the Abu Alchemy Workshop, best quality guaranteed! Also, our magic radios, customization optional. With the bulk purchase of 1,000 units, full radio equipment and training included!”
More merchants and business groups gathered at the port, placing orders and moving all kinds of magic crystal alchemy items, loading them onto their trade ships, and taking them back to their own kingdoms. At King’s Port stood a statue of Alva holding high a shining magic crystal. Alva, who brought about the era of magic crystals, was considered the symbol of hope and wealth by the people.
Following Frank, Alva was second to light god’s fire and became the God of Wealth and Trade. However, most would prefer to call him the God of Magic Crystal.
