I Have a Sailing Game

The perspective moves forward, and Rogel is surprised to discover many familiar species.

For example, birds, wild beasts, and even apes that bear some resemblance to humans.

But they seem to possess only beast-like instincts, lacking human-like intelligence.

"Wisdom... where is Hecilibia now?"

Speaking of wisdom, Rogel can’t help but think of that guy, but as a dream without thoughts, he has no way to know His whereabouts.

[In your wandering, you pass by a gigantic lake.]

[A familiar gentle voice calls out to you.]

"Mephisto, long time no see."

Rogel subconsciously stops the automatic exploration, returns to the perspective of the dream without thoughts, and looks at that blue figure.

The one who called out to him was naturally the Ocean Authority Senavia.

This Mephisto was the first Authority manifestation he met on the continent, and also his first friend.

Rogel would like to ask him some questions, but unfortunately, he is now just a dream without thoughts and cannot speak.

"Hmm... it seems this is not your true form..."

"It’s a pity, I wanted to take you to see my ocean palace, where Inoto and the new friend I mentioned before are also present."

Senavia said rather regretfully.

Rogel’s eyes lit up, and just as he was about to respond, his perspective suddenly bounced out.

"Senavia, I’m here!"

Mephisto was very excited.

"Let’s go, let’s see Inoto and the new friend!"

Rogel felt a bit speechless at this sight.

It seems Mephisto had always been paying attention to his dream cluster and immediately shifted his attention upon seeing an old friend.

Seeing this, Senavia couldn’t help but laugh.

He took Mephisto along to the depths of the giant lake.

Soon, Rogel and Mephisto met two Authority manifestations they had never seen before.

The Authority of Life·Inoto, and... the Authority of Death·Shalira.

It is worth mentioning that neither Senavia nor these two Authority manifestations appeared in human form.

Senavia being a water blob was a given.

Inoto’s form was a sprout with two emerald-green leaves, enveloped outside by a rich aura of life.

Rogel guessed that the manifestation of this Authority of Life should be closely related to the Tree of Life Nop; he can ask about this later.

As for the form of the Authority of Death·Shalira, it was a pale skull enveloped by a chilling aura of death.

The manifestations of Authority clearly had no gender distinction.

Since the appearance of Mephisto’s consciousness, Rogel’s hands left the keyboard and mouse again, starting to watch the CG.

Of course, he could go to other dreams without thoughts, but there was no need.

[Through Senavia’s introduction, you soon got to know Inoto and Shalira, and understood the relationship between them.]

[If distinguished by human relationships, they should be called twin sisters or brothers.]

[The appearance of the Authority of Life Inoto brought about life.]

[But life ultimately ends in death, hence the emergence of Shalira.]

[Their relationship is inseparable, so naturally, after Inoto appeared, Shalira was born shortly thereafter.]

[Because of this, you couldn’t help but feel envious, wondering why you don’t have such a twin brother or sister.]

[During the conversation, you also got a preliminary understanding of their characters.]

[Inoto is as easy to get along with as it appears, with a heart full of kindness and compassion.]

[Although Shalira’s exterior seems ominous and radiates a dangerous aura, in reality, He is not dangerous, just prefers silence and occasionally joins your discussions, with a heart equally kind and full of great love.]

[You are very happy, having met two particularly good new friends, eager to share many things with them.]

[Thus, you inevitably mentioned the Authority of Wisdom·Hecilibia.]

[However, the moment you mentioned Him, both Senavia, Inoto, and Shalira fell silent.]

[You found their reactions quite strange; could it be that your friends don’t like Hecilibia?]

[But soon, your question was answered.]

[Senavia, Inoto, and Shalira had all been unexpectedly visited by Hecilibia before.]

[And Hecilibia is very peculiar; He seems to want to understand everything about other Authority manifestations. This intrusive behavior, however, doesn’t carry ill intent.]

[Thus, their feelings towards Hecilibia are very strange.]

[After a moment of silence, you all stopped discussing Hecilibia and began talking about other things.]

[Senavia showed you the gift Inoto gave Him — a beautiful race living in the ocean, their upper bodies human-like and lower bodies fish-like, meticulously created by Inoto.]

[You felt very envious, wishing to have a tribe like that as well.]

[Inoto seemed to notice this, and He told you that He could imbue life into your dream creations.]

[But Shalira then reminded you that once there is life, there will inevitably come a time when it leads to death.]

[You don’t understand what death is; to your understanding, it’s just something that moves becoming still.]

[So you didn’t heed Shalira’s reminder and happily agreed to Inoto’s offer.]

[With Inoto endowing your dream creations with life, those little entities you molded, only able to move under your control, surprisingly developed their own instincts and began to live in the dreamscape.]

[Watching the vibrant dreamscape, you had never felt so happy.]

[Unfortunately, the dream creatures that have life only have instincts; even ’Mena’ cannot communicate with you like Senavia does, only instinctively revering you.]

[Time flies, and the years race by.]

[As manifestations of Authority, you have no lifespan restrictions, and over the long years, your bond with Senavia, Inoto, and Shalira deepens, often spending time together and exchanging ideas.]

[At the same time, you also met many new friends, newly born Authority manifestations, such as Birth, Calamity, Disease, and so forth...]

[The majority of these newly born Authority manifestations seemed weaker, appearing not as strong as your earlier-born Authority, with some even derived directly from you.]

[For instance, ’Birth’ came into being because of the Authority of Life Inoto, while Disease was born from Shalira.]

[You also sensed a newly emerged Authority named "Illusion" near your own Authority.]

"Oh? So the Power of Illusion’s roots lie here, then..."

Seeing this, Rogel understood in his heart.

The forces of Authority surely vary in strength and precedence.

Authorities like Senavia, Inoto, Shalira, and Mephisto are undoubtedly powerful, even capable of spawning secondary Authorities.

"Authority of Calamity·Rein..."

Rogel took note of this Authority manifestation.

Undoubtedly, the Authority He holds is connected to the power Rogel’s current main body possesses.

This Authority manifestation seems to have been born from calamities on the ocean and land; although a later-born manifestation, its power is not lesser than the first two.

Mephisto learned from Senavia that when Rein was first born, he already had a conflict with Ogo but remained unfazed in the war.

This also intrigued Rogel quite a bit.

Why is the Authority of Calamity so strong?

In the time that Rogel was observing, he discovered a pattern: the earlier-born the manifestation of the Authority, the more likely it is strong.

Authorities like Senavia, Ogo, Inoto, and Shalira, as well as the unnamed sun and moon, are exceedingly powerful manifestations.

Mephisto appeared a little later, but he is also quite strong.

Conversely, later-born manifestations like Birth, Illusion, Disease, etc., tend to be weaker.

But the appearance of the Authority of Calamity completely broke this pattern; being newly born yet unyielding in the battle against the Authority of Earth, Ogo.

"Could it be that the notion of earlier birth correlating with greater strength isn’t absolute?"

Rogel thought to himself.

While pondering this question, a significant change also occurred with Mephisto.

[These newly born manifestations of Authority have made the entire world richer.]

[However, as more and more Authority manifestations are born, conflicts and wars inevitably arise...]
