Chapter 179: The Ancient Seal
"Honey, this is it... the Ancient Seal that once closed the connection to both the God Realm and Spirit Realm."
Evernight’s voice was soft and sweet as she pointed toward a mysterious, towering door embedded within a white marble cliff. Runes older than civilization pulsed across its surface, glowing faintly like slumbering stars.
They had come straight here for a reason — to restore the seal that had begun to weaken after centuries of holding firm.
With her hand still wrapped in his, Igaris gave a slight nod and stepped forward with her. Together, they passed through the entrance.
The moment they crossed the threshold, the world shifted.
Igaris found himself no longer standing on solid ground. He was floating in a vast, boundless void. Silence ruled here, and space itself seemed suspended in a moment outside of time.
His gaze drifted upward.
There, stretching into the dark void, stood four towering silhouettes. Ancient titanic mechas, each one impossibly massive, each one frozen mid-gesture with colossal arms raised high, maintaining the structure of the realm around them.
Igaris took in the sight quietly.
He had seen these constructs before — in his past life. So the shock did not grip him. But even with memory on his side, the awe returned. It always did.
They were masterworks beyond imagination.
Each mecha pulsed with its own field of divine energy, held together by machinery and willpower no mortal could replicate. What kind of genius could have designed and created these? The Architect who envisioned them must have been at a level far beyond the gods themselves.
