ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm More years passed.By now, the world had recovered infull.Except for the couple of Beast Kingsthat had been sacrificed for the MageKings, the world had fully recovered.While the war was technically stillongoing, no one had truly fought init, and people didn't even think aboutit.There hadn't been any battles inthousands of years.The war didn't even feel like itexisted.Except for the Abominations, theworld had become peaceful again.However, the existence of theAbominations had already become anormality for all the people.While Abomination Lords hadstopped appearing, AncestralAbominations and weaker still keptappearing, but they had beenappearing for such a long time thatnot even Mage Lords remembered atime before them.And if not even the Mage Lords hadwitnessed a world without AncestralAbominations, how would the weakerpeople feel?It had always been like this.Naturally, the appearance of theAbominations gave the world acertain feeling of doomsday, but theEmpress of Death represented hope.She had already managed to get rid ofAbomination Lords.At some point, she could also get ridof Ancestral Abominations!They were sure!After tens of thousands of years ofterrifying war, the world was finallyin an age of hope and peace.Yet, while the general public lookedat the development of the world withbright eyes, the Mage Kings andMage Emperors felt very different.The closer they got to the UltimateTournament, the more worried theygot.All of them had already seenAbaddon's power before, and they allknew that he could fight them.He wouldn't even need to become aMage Emperor.Of course, if two Emperors attackedhim, he probably wouldn't win.But what after he became a MageEmperor?Then, they would all need to fighthim simultaneously.It was really dangerous.In secret, many of the Emperors hadalready come to talk to Gregorio inprivate."Hey, now that all of this is over, doyou really want to go through withthe Ultimate Tournament?" theyasked.

"After all, you wanted thistournament for your warrior, right?"One had to remember that thetournament only existed becauseGregorio had threatened everyonewith releasing the Archivist.If Gregorio stopped threatening themwith the Archivist, they could just nothold the tournament.Yet, Gregorio shot all of them down."You wanted this," Gregorio answeredwith annoyance.

"Originally, I helpedShang because I wanted him to killAbaddon.

While I can't negotiate withAbaddon, I was able to negotiate withShang.""I wanted Shang to kill Abaddon, givehim a couple of Kings and Emperorsso that he can become a God, andmake him deal with theAbominations.""But because of you, he keptdestroying himself more and moreuntil he became something that Idon't even recognize anymore.

Howam I supposed to stop someone likethat from destroying the world?""But then, he died.""And now, you're stuck withAbaddon?"So, no, I won't stop threatening youwith the Archivist.""If the tournament doesn't happen, Iwill release the Archivist.""You dug your grave.

Now, you haveto lie in it."Obviously, the Mage Emperorsweren't the biggest fans of Gregorio'sanswer.Most of them just argued more.Some of them reacted withaggression and called Gregorio a soreloser.And one of them, LinastraBoomwitch, even agreed withGregorio to a certain extent.Linastra Boomwitch said that she hadbeen on the sidelines for too longand that she should have supportedhim.But Gregorio just said that it wasalready too late.The damage was already done.The fate of the world was set.He told her that the world would endin about 5,000 years after theUltimate Tournament.Of course, Linastra didn't fully believethat.I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοmAfter all, the final battle between theEmperors and Abaddon hadn'thappened yet.There was a real chance that theycould win.Gregorio didn't answer.When Linastra left, Gregorio justlooked towards the northwest.He saw Shang, or more precisely,what Shang had become.The more time passed, the lesshuman Shang became.By now, his body didn't even lookhuman.Shang was no longer human.In fact, Shang wasn't even anAbomination.Shang had become his own being.The most fitting word Gregorio couldcome up with was Nightmare.Shang had become a Nightmare.An enemy to all life and existence.The end of the world.Shang had become the apocalypse.Gregorio knew that the world wasalready over.More years passed, and the UltimateTournament was already on thehorizon.A couple of old Mage Kings died, andnew ones were crowned, but none ofthat mattered anymore.The Mage Emperors were fullyfocused on the Ultimate Tournament,and they came up with manystrategies.They wanted to include Gregorio intheir meetings, but Gregoriodechned.He was done with them.Eventually, only a thousand yearswere left.Shang was now 50,000 years old, andhe had been in the Sword King Realmfor 21,000 years.For 21,000 years, he had worked onnothing but his power, and his resultswere terrifying.Shang's power kept escalating to thepoint that he wouldn't even need anyAbominations to destroy the world.He wouldn't even need to reach theNinth Realm.He could just tear Aterium's realityslowly apart.When Gregorio saw Shang, he feltonly one thing.Acceptance.The world didn't know, but the endwas already certain.There would be no excitement.There would be no last epic battle.Occasionally missing content, please report errors in time.
