Endless Horde: Through the Eyes of a Godking

--

"Hnnnn..."

Cedric stepped out of the room and stretched his body. He just woke up from a deep sleep, and his body felt a little stiff.

He made his way to the living room and sat down on the couch, then a plate of food and a cup of coffee floated to the table, coming from downstairs. Cedric unceremoniously began eating his breakfast as he basked in the morning light.

After his breakfast, he took a quick shower and changed his clothes. He looked at their bed and saw that his girls were still asleep. He gently smiled, turned off the lights, and gently closed the door behind him so as not to disturb their peaceful sleep.

"Alright, let's start today's work," Cedric muttered to himself.

He took a step forward, and his surroundings immediately blurred. As soon as his foot landed on solid ground, he already found himself in dark and gloomy surroundings.

The stench of corruption assaulted his nose, the putrid land swarmed his vision, and the depressing sight caused him to sigh. He heard a roaring splash behind him. Turning around, he saw the wild and chaotic waves of the sea.

This seemingly boundless body of water sadly couldn't escape the influence of demonic corruption either. The waters have turned black and almost vicuous. If you look at it for long, you'll see the shadowy and creepy visage of several underwater creatures swimming with the waves, seemingly unperturbed by the vigorous activity of the ocean.

Trapped in that small corner of this continent, humans just couldn't afford to pay any attention to this seemingly boundless sea. What lurks in the depths of this place is probably a lot scarier than what roams these lands.

Cedric was now at the edge of the Azure Terra Continent. If he braved the chaotic seas from here and managed to sail straight ahead, he'd end up on the shores of the Lost Continent after a month and a half. Of course, that's under the assumption that the underwater creatures spared him and his ship.

But he didn't come all the way here to sail to the Lost Continent. Forget about sailing; if he wanted to, he could arrive there in seconds. His goal here was something else entirely.

Cedric blinked, and in that moment, his senses covered the entire planet. Within a literal blink of an eye, every movement on the continent became visible to him.

He saw squads of soldiers leaving the safety of the walls, gathering, purifying, and harvesting resources. He saw other squads on the prowl to hunt the remaining demons that still roam these lands. He could also see dedicated squads who were stationed in areas near the walls, assigned the task of using sunlight to purify said areas, restoring their vigor and beauty.

And finally, he also saw the strong men and women of the army flying all over the continent to survey the lands and make appropriate plans for its future developments.

Cedric didn't bother paying attention to whatever's happening outside of the continent since it's not one of their concerns right now.

He then looked beneath him and saw the coarse and blackened sands. A trace of pity appeared on his face as he thought that this place could've been a gorgeous beach, but it's sadly ruined by the demonic goop.

Releasing another sigh, he turned his attention to the land. He flicked his sleeves, and all of a sudden, an earthquake happened. A massive rock formation protruded from below; its surface was covered with thick veins flowing with magma, releasing a scalding temperature.

Flicking his sleeves once more, the rock formation became taller and taller until it reached an astonishing height of 1000 miles, which almost reached the skies. With a tap of his foot, Cedric appeared at the peak of this rock.

He then stretched his hands out to his sides, and suddenly, the rock formation extended out, following the edge of the Azure Terra Continent.

Cedric was building a new great wall. One that's seemingly made out of ordinary rocks but is way tougher and more resilient than any material humans could find or create.

With his mastery over the planar laws, which also include the earth laws, this was a simple task for him. If he wanted to, he could even mold some random stone he could find all around him into a massive dome that covered the skies above. There's no reason for him to do that, though.

His actions were, of course, noticed by those who were roaming the land. After all, there was no way to hide the tremors that occurred right after the massive walls were built. That said, the darkness of the land shrouded the activity very well, so even though they could feel it, they couldn't accurately discover its source.

The walls Cedric created looked rough, jagged, and uneven. He didn't bother smoothing it out; he could just leave it out to the army, which will eventually be stationed here.

In addition to building this wall, he also carved a formation in its depths, which immediately took effect as soon as the walls were connected. Just like the ones that isolated human territory, the formation he carved has a similar effect, just on a much larger scale.

This will make it more difficult for the demons coming from the Lost Continent or from the sea to find Azure Terra, making it easier for his people to enter a smooth development for the years to come.

Cedric examined his work for a bit before nodding in satisfaction. Then he briefly turned his gaze above the skies, his vision seemingly penetrating the purgatory realm, staring straight at the gigantic spaceships of the spare pirates parked outside this world.

A sneer appeared on his face as he looked at them.

Since the end of the war, the fleet has been greatly alarmed, and it's normal. After all, they lost contact with one of the Seven Deadly Sins. They had no idea whether it was still alive or dead. They tried using some kind of device to communicate with it, but they couldn't reach their target anymore.

They also discovered that they had lost sight of Azure Terra. It's as if it disappeared completely from their view. They couldn't sense the 'potential space nodes' anymore, making it impossible for them to send out more troops that are raring to cause destruction to the lands.

Such a shocking development completely took them by surprise, and it happened so quick that by the time they were allowed to react, it's already too late.

Of course, there were some who tried to descend by force, and if this was a few years ago, this might've worked. Now though? That's impossible, especially since Acala has restored a fair amount of her strength with her fusion with the Spiritual Dragon Veins.

Cedric could sense that they're still trying other things to restore connection so that they could continue monotoring humans, but so far, everything they did has failed. They only comforted themselves with their hubris, thinking that weak and fragile humans could only hide but would never escape their eventual extinction.

That kind of mentality is something that Cedric would like to see more of because it gives humans more time to develop.

Cedric returned his gaze to the lands of Azure Terra and began to think about possible things he could do to take advantage of humanity's expansion.

"Ah!" Cedric's eyes suddenly brightened. "Yeah, I could create some secret realms and trial grounds!"

Stepping away from the walls, he appeared in one of the nightmare jungles that's now void of any demonic creatures. With a flick of his sleeves, the space around the jungle twisted, and it suddenly disappeared from view.

Within the isolated space, Cedric released his godly control over planar laws. He stripped the influence of corruption from the land down to the last particle. He gave it a new breath of life, which caused all sorts of flora and fauna to bloom.

He purposefully manipulated the genetic structures of life around this place, causing all sorts of mutations to appear. He changed the way the laws worked in this place and created all sorts of opportunities for those who were lucky enough to find this place first. Of course, he also left some rules behind for them to follow and a set of punishments should they step out of line.

After he's done with this, he manipulates the space once more and just makes it unstable. He left a way in and out for people to discover and connected this place to Acala's spiritual network.

Now, this place just needs a bit more time, and it will be teeming with all sorts of unique resources that humanity could use to increase their strength.

Cedric did all of this within two hours. He dusted his hands after he was done and began walking away, seemingly undisturbed by the gloom and doom of the world around him.

"Hmm..." He frowned as he marched away. "Where should I go next?"

His eyes roamed around mischievously, and he discovered a dead volcano a few thousand miles away from where he was.

"Ooh! A Trial by Fire sounds nice! Let's go!"

Azure Terra then turned into Cedric's oyster.
