Chapter 18 - 17 God is Pleased with Us_2
```
This darkness was cold and inescapable.
```
Just as Al fell into despair, within the darkness, emerged a light.
The scene of the world's beginning appeared before Al's eyes, and he was so stunned that he stood frozen in place.
Then, he instinctively looked up at his surroundings, his gaze falling upon the mountains, where he saw a figure descending from the peak, bringing life from beneath the waters up to the earth.
Al witnessed this scene and felt an indescribable heaviness overwhelm him, making him tremble uncontrollably.
That figure was the authority of life.
It was his God.
The scene came to a halt, and then slowly faded away, melting into the surroundings like a dissolving mist.
Al dared not blink, fearful of missing something.
