Only God

The angels of the Holy Realm had lived these three thousand years carefree.

Over these three thousand years, the Gods who had witnessed the destruction of the Logos Kingdom once hoped to find the so-called abode of angels, yet each time they came up empty-handed, unaware that the angels existed in the dreams of God.

Created by the spirit of God, they were immortal and not sensitive to the passage of time; to them, three thousand years might as well have been thirty.

Ever since the Great Angel Solamus called upon the other seven Great Angels to create the angelic trial, the eight of them had tried countless individuals.

However, over the three thousand years, only a scant dozen or so individuals had passed the angelic trial and stepped into that dreamlike and fantastical scenery.

This problem plagued the Great Angels, who debated numerous times whether the trial was too difficult and whether they should reduce the challenges, but in the end, Solamus always stood firm against the multitude of opinions, insisting that the trial remain as it was.

Even though those who passed the angelic trial were very few, the Great Angels took great joy whenever a dozen individuals managed to succeed.

Moreover, through the angelic trial, the Great Angels had also learned much about the changes in the outside world.

The sacred mountain of the former Logos Kingdom, since its destruction, had become a pilgrimage site for the mountain-dwelling Elves who journeyed across the sea and traversed rugged terrains to the mountain’s altar; there, they presented offerings and lingered three to four days before returning to the New Kingdom.

Due to the ruin of the old Logos Kingdom, much of the technology of old either perished in the dust of history or was carried into the deserts by the fleeing Three-eyed Ape People and some of the Logos population. The mountain-dwelling Elves of the New Kingdom could not access the former technologies and also lost interest in them; thus, even after three thousand years, the New Kingdom’s scenery had barely changed from that of three millennia prior.

In contrast to the slow-developing New Logos Kingdom, Solamus learned from a trialist who had passed the trial that the Unihorn whales had instead built their own kingdom under the sea.
