"Immortality? That can be lonely. And in the end, everyone will die. It doesn’t matter what you do to escape it—sooner or later, all shall taste death. It is already written; it’s only a matter of when and how.
But glory… glory is the answer.
Glory will outlive flesh and bones.
Glory is what we should strive for, not immortality."

Robin Burton was a young man who grew up with everything anyone could ever hope for: immense talent in cultivation, a sharp mind, and a wealthy family that would stop at nothing to protect and nurture him. He had everything—except the will to make use of it.

"Why should I walk the same path as my ancestors? Why must I seek strength just to defeat one rival or compete with another? That is not what I was born for!"

“…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority. I wanted to explore the universe, and to explore myself first… yet time and again, I was dragged into devastating wars. I wanted to benefit people with my knowledge and immortalize my name, yet worlds fell and hundreds of billions died because of me. Ironic, hah?”

Upon her radiant throne, within a throne hall that seemed as though it had been sculpted from pure light and absolute clarity itself, where every surface shimmered with a soft, sacred glow that erased shadows before they could even form, Kaylis sat with an air of quiet composure, her posture relaxed, almost effortless, as if the weight of the universe itself had no authority over her.


Her eyes, once capable of shaking the hearts of even the bravest warriors and bringing them to their knees with nothing but a glance, were no longer the same. Though they remained closed, faint dark circles lingered beneath them, subtle yet unmistakable, and even a few fallen lashes rested against her pale skin, betraying the exhaustion she could no longer conceal.
