Lynn and the others stayed the night in a village that was not far from the city of Babus. This way, they would be ready to leave early the next morning and return to Kingdom of Urabell. This village was also near Lake Tír na nÓg.
Legend had it that this twin lake had originally been only one lake, but more than a hundred years ago, the evil Ghost Wizard Adenos concocted a terrible plan to turn the whole city of Babus into a city of ghosts. At that time, a star fell from the sky, dispelling the evil and forming Lake Tír na nÓg, the holy lake of the Church of Light. Thus, the second lake was created.
“Lynn! Lynn!” As Lynn was sleeping in a cabin near the lake, he heard someone calling his name. It was a soft but confident voice, one that might belong to a queen or a god.
Lynn was not completely awake yet, so he groggily walked out of the room barefoot, stumbling all the way toward Lake Tír na nÓg. When he arrived at shore of the lake, he was jolted awake by a cold gust of wind.
“How did I get outside?” Lynn was confused.
Suddenly, in the middle of the lake, there was a flash of light. Lynn, who was still in shock, watched a shadow slowly emerge from the water. He could only see that it was a beautiful woman with lovely blond hair and a crown on her head.
Hers was a kind of beauty that couldn’t be described with words. If anyone saw her, they would feel immediately cleansed and purified. No matter how evil a person was, if he saw her, he would want to do good deeds in her name.
The woman opened her beautiful eyes, which were lovely and glittering. As she looked at Lynn, he instantly felt an enormous power enter him. His whole body could not help but tremble.
“Lynn Ahenaten!” Lynn was greatly astonished. No matter how groggy he was, he was very aware that this was indeed a revelation.
She is a goddess. Oh my god! What should I say to her? Hello? No, that’s not right! What am I thinking? Was she the one calling my name?
Lynn’s brain couldn’t function well. He couldn’t think of anything proper to say.
Before he had time to find his words, the shadow of the goddess said to Lynn, “Lynn Ahenaten, you are the descendent of the oldest King, Ahenaten. You have a king’s bloodline and are the heir to the Golden Family dynasty.”
She then added, “The central province has been in chaos for more than a hundred years. The conflicts between the Faith of the Sun and the Church of Light have lasted for too long. And you, who I have chosen, are the one to end this chaos! Lynn, you will be the next king of the central province!”
The divine shadow then pointed at Lynn, while a large number of golden fireflies flew to him and covered him. Then, he felt that he something was activated within him, and his pupils changed from a dark green color to a golden yellow color!
“Go ahead and fulfill your mission! Let the sun shine over the land of the central province!” After the divine shadow said this, all of the lights slowly dissipated and the shadow disappeared.
Lynn stood by Lake Tír na nÓg for a long time before he slowly recovered. He then looked around excitedly. It seemed as if nothing around him was real, as if he had just had a very vivid dream.
Was it a dream? If so, it was a beautiful dream!
As Lynn was pondering the situation, he saw something floating in the lake. It was shining even brighter than the silver moon in the sky.
When Lynn went into the lake to get a closer look, he saw a sword reflected in the middle of the lake. As Lynn reached forward into the water to get it, he seemed to transport into another world. Startled, he quickly pulled his hand back.
The sword was a silvery white color, and it had many strange symbols on it. It was also emitting a holy light.
Lynn held the sword tightly. As he grasped it, it emitted a buzzing sound. The light from the sword shone above the lake.
“Sword of the King!” Lynn said this without knowing why. He felt his throat tighten, and his voice was trembling, as if the four words had some strange sort of strange magic imbued within them.
If anyone knew that this sword had appeared in the world again, the whole world would be crazy about it! This was because every time the sword appeared, the royal power shifted.
Specifically, whoever owned the sword in every period that it emerged would be crowned the absolute and renowned king! This time, the sword had chosen Lynn. Actually, it was really the gods that had chosen Lynn as the next generation’s king.

“That is strange… Who took the sword?” Lu Zhiyu found that the Sword of the King, which usually hung on his wall as an ornament, was missing.
It was impossible for others who lived outside the floating castle to enter it, and as for Eva, Verthandi, and Delmedi, the sword had little significance to them.
Lu Zhiyu closed eyes, then immediately knew where the sword was, as well as who had taken it! Lu Zhiyu squinted his eyes and put his hands behind his back. Verthandi looked nervously at him, wondering what he would do next.
Lu Zhiyu leaned back on his chair and said, “Anyway, in the world of the mortals, gods can’t interfere directly. Also, I have told Kelly to teach you a good lesson. Don’t expect me to let you get away with anything! Remember what I said, you can’t decide the future of the world of mortals at will, or I will remove you from your position. If you are bored, you can go with me to the astral.”
