Chapter 553

Chapter 553: Fight Again for Another Thousand Years – Conclusion

Two months later, Canglang Province, Morning Star City.

Today is the day Karoso gets married.

The officiants are not church members, nor is it Neymar, but Osiris Colloa and Minaret.

Well, I don’t know why, but Osiris and Minaret somehow ended up together, even though they have no plans to marry.

Osiris is already old, while Minaret is a being of eternal life.

Minaret just wants to spend some time with Osiris during his limited days.

Many guests have come today, with important people from various countries attending.

An ordinary duke, let alone watching the ceremony at the City Master’s residence, would be lucky to find a hotel in Morning Star City.

Karoso is wearing a smart suit, while 『』 is dressed in a stunning wedding gown.

"You said you would give me a grand wedding, and you did." 『』 held Karoso’s hand.

In the eyes of the two, there were no such things as rules at all.

The biggest rule in this world has already been broken by Karoso.

From now on, Karoso will decide how the rules are made.

"Hmm, Canglang Province is really lively today," Karoso remarked.

Over the past few months, besides doing important things, Karoso has spent all his time with 『』.

No matter the scenic spots recommended by netizens or forbidden places, nothing can stop Karoso now.

Under the hard work of the two… 『』 didn’t have a child with Karoso.

There’s no way, their levels are too high right now, so having a child is very difficult.

This is why powerful nations rarely have descendants, or almost none at all.

To have descendants, it is better to be at a lower level.

"Don’t just watch the fun, take care of the guests." 『』 squeezed Karoso’s waist.

"Big brother, Second Brother." Karoso brought 『』 to Kazan and Saaya.

"Congratulations." Kazan sincerely wished them well.

"Congratulations." Saaya looked at Karoso with a complicated expression.

He used to hate Karoso very much, resenting Karoso for taking his father’s love and having a position in the family just below his father.

At that time, Saaya wanted to compete with Karoso for everything.

Now… the two of them are on completely different levels.

[Wah wah wah, finally having the real wedding!]

[The two of them have come a long way… Hmm, it doesn’t seem so hard after all.]

[Of course, it’s Neymar who’s had a tough time.]

[Alas… I can only say, the timing of things is very important!]

Karoso greeted everyone, and the wedding officially began.

The two of them had already exchanged vows at Acheron, so there was nothing more to say.

Null held 『』’s hand and placed it into Karoso’s hand, then Osiris took on the role of the priest and helped the two exchange rings again.

Null felt deeply moved; Karoso had truly given his sister a grand wedding.

Today, this wedding will be recorded in history.

The greatest Card Maker of the continent, and Karoso, who has the most hope of becoming a god in the Age of Abandonment.

Moreover, this wedding is unlike any other wedding.

I don’t know how Karoso thought of this, but he wants to have a banquet at the City Master’s residence…

This means that the guests can at least have a full meal before they leave.

It can be said that whoever has the power to destroy the City Master’s residence would be like directly crippling this world.

The highest leaders and top military commanders from various countries are all here.

Aileen and Teresa are sitting below, chatting and laughing.

"Teresa, how’s it going on your side?" Aileen asked.

"It’s almost done," Teresa replied with a smile. "My brother couldn’t handle it anymore, so he passed the throne to me. I am currently making reforms. Those students are giving speeches everywhere, telling the people that our country has changed. All the rights of the nobles have been taken back, and the army has been restructured into the country’s army."

"I don’t know what Karoso thinks about the governing method, but it seems quite reasonable."

The system of separating the military and the governor, like the army and the provincial leader, was adopted directly from netizens, but using it without changes doesn’t suit the local situation very well.

Furthermore, with the influence of the nobles themselves, finding a way to adapt will be a long process. This requires discovering a path that is more suitable according to the customs and characteristics of this world.

Surely, Teresa will have to fight for this her whole life.

"Karoso killed Hercules, don’t you hate him?" Aileen sighed.

"That was the path he chose himself. My uncle told me he could have left, but… he wanted to take that step, so he had to fight Karoso to the death. I respect his choice. If I hated Karoso because of this, that would be an insult to him," Teresa said firmly.

There is a reason why Presea is a warrior nation; they have their own ways of survival.

"Ah… so Karoso and President 『』 are really married," Aileen said, looking at the two with envy, and she changed the topic.

"What’s wrong? Do you have something to say?" Teresa teased.

"Don’t you?" Aileen looked at Teresa with confusion.

Teresa froze, "You actually have? I have no ideas."

"Karoso is the most honest person I have ever met, of course he has ideas. I still owe him a lot of money and I want to pay it back with my work, but sadly he won’t give me a chance." Aileen complained.

"Well, I have… never mind, I can’t really call it love." Teresa waved her hand, "Elizabeth didn’t come to the wedding."

"She took her father into the Forbidden Sea." Aileen sighed, "I’m really jealous; she gets to do what she loves."

"You don’t like what you’re doing?" Teresa joked.

"I do like it, but it’s tiring." Aileen shrugged.

"Neymar also likes that guy, but she seems totally normal today." Teresa glanced at Neymar, who looked relaxed, and stopped talking about work with Aileen.

"Um…"

Just then, Kirmin leaned closer and said, "Would you two like to collaborate?"

"Collaborate?" Teresa asked, puzzled. "What kind of collaboration?"

"Business collaboration!" Kirmin rubbed her hands together and pulled out two documents. "I plan to start a company in your country."

"Presea has rich mineral resources, and I want to buy minerals from you."

"The Pande Empire has abundant plantations, and I want to do food exports with you."

The two looked at Kirmin, feeling a bit uneasy.

This woman will surely become the queen of a business empire in the future, right?

"Is your name Kirmin?"

Just then, a delicate hand rested on Kirmin’s shoulder.

Kirmin turned around and saw Merlin standing behind her.

From his breathing, it seemed that Merlin had reached the ninth level.

There was no need to use the eighth level as a standard for action; Merlin no longer held back and easily broke through to the ninth level, not in the early stage, but at the mid-stage, like Minaret Celica.

"Lord Merlin, do you want to cooperate too?" Kirmin said with excitement.

"No, I am here to tell you that I have formed a guild," Merlin said.

"A guild? An adventurer’s guild?" Kirmin looked a bit confused.

"No, it is a place for employees and workers to fight for their legal rights, so people like you cannot exploit them unfairly," Merlin said with a slight smile. "With my lifespan and understanding of the laws… I can supervise you capitalists for at least four hundred years."

Kirmin was frozen in place.

She felt like she had encountered a nemesis.

"Don’t worry, as long as you treat the workers fairly, and don’t say that lowering their wages helps them strive, or make excuses about layoffs being a way to provide talent to society, I won’t cause you any trouble."

"Well, you can’t just do whatever you want; workers have rights, but if their rights go too far and affect the company…" Kirmin stubbornly resisted.

"I will handle this carefully."

……

In the evening, Karoso sent off all the guests and sat in a room with Null, 『』, Neymar, Osiris, Minaret, Teresa, and Aileen.

Kazan and Saaya only attended the wedding and did not take part in this conversation.

"Everyone, I can no longer hold back my power," Karoso said, looking around the room.

Everyone’s expressions were mixed, unsure of what to say.

"So, you’re about to become a god…" Osiris said slowly.

"Mm." Karoso nodded softly, "I still had a few decades left, but the last battle was a catalyst… I can no longer control myself."

"Stay safe." Osiris spoke to Karoso in a simple and straightforward way, even though Karoso was about to leave this world.

"You are in charge of keeping the world stable. If someone tries to cause trouble… Minaret, Neymar, Celica, and Merlin are all top fighters, but they still can’t defeat us," Karoso said.

"We will protect this world," Teresa sincerely wished for Karoso.

Although Karoso dealt with a lot of politics, she knew that Karoso preferred to be a pure warrior.

"Don’t worry," Aileen sighed, she never expected her time with Karoso would be so short.

"Neymar, remember to share your improved Magical Circle of Deicide with everyone in the future," Karoso said.

"Got it," Neymar nodded obediently.

『』 felt very reluctant, but at that moment, she couldn’t stop Karoso, nor could she hold her back.

She can only slowly work hard until one day she goes up to find Karoso.

After saying a final goodbye to a few people, Karoso’s body turned into little starlights and flew upward.

In an instant, a terrifying golden light shot up into the sky from the City Master’s estate, and at that moment, the Magic Factor of the entire continent became chaotic!

The Forbidden Sea was boiling, and the sand in the White Desert turned back to yellow.

Canglang Province had clear skies, while the coastal cities were hit by a heavy downpour!

……

"Congratulations on the birth of the new god!"

Church of the Dawn Goddess, with bodies scattered everywhere in the senate.

Celica looked at the golden light and sincerely wished, "Happy wedding…"

……

"Congratulations on the birth of the new god!"

Yggdrasil Empire’s ninth-tier warrior Sakaski, Presea Empire’s ninth-tier warrior Hyros, Pande Empire’s ninth-tier knight and ninth-tier wizard knight Stan Eichler, wizard Julia Eichler, Numenor’s ninth-tier nature mage Norma, Yaleman Empire’s ninth-tier warlock Gul’dan.

All the ninth-tier warriors watched intently at the golden light in Morning Star City.

Karoso left, but they did not dare to act, because Neymar was still there.

And then there was that most terrifying ninth-tier warrior, the ninth-tier assassin Minaret!

After the hunter’s death, no one in the world could stop her assassination.

This woman is Karoso’s stepmother…

……

"Congratulations on the birth of the new god!"

Emperor Donald Tran of the Yggdrasil Empire, the two princes from Presea who failed to claim the throne, Paul Hans of the Yaleman Empire, the little mustached Adolf Vienna, the former emperor of the Pande Empire, Emmanuel Eichler, and the emperor Fenwei of the Numenor Empire, all honored this plague god who changed the world.

Unfortunately, even though Karoso is gone, their balance can never be restored.

……

"Congratulations on the birth of the new god!"

Countless churches, countless palaces, and countless noble figures all reverently knelt on the ground, repeatedly saying this phrase.

……

"Congratulations, Karoso Colloa."

Outside the Morning Star City Master’s residence, Elizabeth leaned against the wall, softly whispering, "I will become a god soon and go find you up there. When that time comes… I will take you away! Just like your ancestors did!"

……

Karoso did not know how long he had traveled.

When he sensed his body again, he felt that he had changed.

Very clean!

The messy and useless rules were stripped away from him on that land.

He left behind several of his avatars, which entered three statues in Presea, Canglang Province, and the Pande Empire.

His excess rules gathered into a new soul, waiting to be reborn.

Just like Surtr corresponds to Minaret, Messiah corresponds to Kirmin.

"Congratulations on the birth of the new god."

Just then, Karoso heard a curious voice.

He suddenly opened his eyes and found himself in an endless starry sky.

There were four people next to him.

One was Tom, whom he had seen before; one was Surtr, who had given him the Mark of the Divine Favor; one was the Aurora Goddess, and one was a woman who looked somewhat like the Aurora Goddess.

"I have met the Card God, the Flame War God, the Aurora Goddess, and the Goddess of the Night," Karoso said as he bowed to them.

They looked very similar to their statues; it was easy to recognize them.

These people seemed to be in trouble.

Surtr was covered in blood, Tom looked exhausted, and both the Aurora Goddess and the Goddess of the Night had injuries.

Looking back at the starry sky…

Bodies, so many bodies!

Some are monsters, some are human-like, some are animal-like, and one even has the size of a planet!

[What is going on?]

[The Aurora Goddess is so cool, I really want the Aurora Goddess to come here!]

[The Goddess of the Night is actually a dark-skinned girl.]

[I don’t like Bosnian people.]

[I do like them!]

[The Card God is so handsome!]

[He didn’t look that handsome as Tom, how did he become so handsome as the Card God?]

[Details can be compared to Jack Ma’s appearance and wealth.]

[This Surtr looks just like the Minaret.]

[Wow, is this the real Flame Demon Sword Levatin? It’s completely different from the fake one!]

[Levatin’s power can sweep across the entire continent!]

[Compared to this one, the projections that Karoso used before are very weak.]

[What is happening?" A strong smell of blood filled Karoso’s nose.]

[During your trip to the eighth-tier dungeon, I helped my card friend a bit and accidentally revealed the coordinates of this planet. Those outer gods who didn’t play enough before and those seeking thrills have come looking." Card God wiped an unknown liquid off his face.]

[You really helped a friend!" The Goddess of the Night glared at Card God.]

"[Hmph, he never changes." The Aurora Goddess scoffed and then said to Karoso, "What is the Church of Dawn Goddess like now?"]"

"Um… well…" Karoso’s face turned a little red.

After all, he had killed the Pope…

"What about the Church of the Goddess of the Night?" the Goddess of the Night looked at Karoso with hope.

"It was destroyed by the Church of the Dawn Goddess." Karoso knew the answer to this question.

"Huh?" The Goddess of the Night was stunned.

Not just the Goddess of the Night, but the Aurora Goddess was also surprised.

"Pfft…" The Aurora Goddess laughed out loud, "Hahahahaha… your church was destroyed by my church!"

She had always lived in the shadow of the Goddess of the Night.

Even though she became a goddess, she was still behind the Goddess of the Night.

At that moment, she felt so satisfied!

I, Leona, finally won for once!

"Damn it!" The Goddess of the Night suddenly looked very annoyed, "Tom, is this why you won’t let me see the continent?"

"You’re all gods, yet you still care about those little things. There are no eternal countries and no eternal churches." Surtr seemed very open-minded. She looked at Karoso with great interest, "Kid, it’s worth my while to help you delay; the rules inside you are very interesting, something I have never seen before. And your sword is not bad; its material is as good as my Levatin, it’s a fine piece for a Divine Artifact."

"Thank you, Flame War God…" Karoso respectfully bowed to Surtr, "Without you, I wouldn’t be where I am today."

"Then you should practice hard; by the way, a new batch of outer gods is coming." A bloodthirsty smile appeared on Surtr’s face, "The battlefield is where the strong grow."

As soon as Surtr finished speaking, horrible sounds began to enter Karoso’s ears.

In the starry sky, Karoso felt a great fear!

For a moment, Karoso even felt a sense of helplessness.

"Stay calm; it’s just a mental attack." Surtr licked his lips at a group of misfits.

It seems we can have a good fight again.

"Huff…" Karoso let out a breath, "There seem to be quite a few of them."

"Are you scared?" Surtr raised an eyebrow.

"No, what I mean is, there are so many of them that it would be challenging for just us. How about I call some helpers?"

Karoso reached out his hand and selected support.

When he became a god, he could choose ten helpers.

Suddenly, God-level Null, God-level 『』, God-level Neymar, God-level Elizabeth, God-level Teresa, God-level Aileen, God-level Celica, God-level Minaret, God-level Merlin, and God-level Sophia appeared behind Karoso.

Each of them radiated an aura no weaker than Karoso’s!

"How did you do that?" Card God widened his eyes.

Goddess of the Night and Aurora Goddess shared a glance; none of these beings had a breath of life, like dolls, yet they all had true god-level power.

How… is this possible?

"This is interesting, it’s related to the laws of dreams. Did you pull them from a dream into reality?" Surtr looked surprised.

"They belong to another world, to the friends who brought me to today." Karoso pointed his long sword at the countless outer gods, "Everyone, please join me, let’s fight for another thousand years!"

The end of the book.
