Chapter 77: Chapter 30: Damn! Transported to the Age of the Gods’ War!

Char listened with a smile to Freyja’s narration.

In Freyja’s concept, there might not be the notion of ordinary professions, elite professions, rare professions, epic professions, and legendary professions, which are the system’s classifications for the various extraordinary professions.

But without a doubt, even among the Elf Clan, the Natural Prophet was an extremely powerful and scarce profession, otherwise Freyja’s tone wouldn’t have been filled with such astonishment.

Setting that aside, just from listening to Freyja’s detailed description of the abilities of a Natural Prophet, one could sense the strength and comprehensiveness of the profession.

Mastering Elemental Magic meant incredibly high damage and astounding destructive power, and then the Druid abilities could help mages avoid their weakness in hand-to-hand combat, being fragile and lacking in vitality.

Add on a portion of Prophetic abilities, and there was a certain resistance to attacks from the mystical studies, making it very comprehensive and balanced, perfectly fitting Char’s ideal fantasy of a spellcaster.

No, it even surpassed his fantasies.

Before that, all he dreamed of were powers to move heaven and earth and extremely high damage—he hadn’t fantasized about Druid and Prophetic abilities.

Not to mention, Natural Prophets also had the ability to cultivate magic plants!

If nothing unexpected happened, the circle of green vines outside had been cultivated by Kedel White Eagle, specifically to counter Undead magic plants.

Char was simply too eager to wait, wanting to immediately get Freyja’s help to translate the magic book left by Kedel and then change professions on the spot.

But that was an impossibility. Judging from the “difficulty” of his archery practice, converting to a Natural Prophet wouldn’t be as easy as:

“Do you wish to change your profession to a Natural Prophet?”

“Please choose yes or no.”

“Yes.”

One couldn’t simply accomplish the profession change with ease.

There was bound to be a learning process involved.

“Kedel was a Natural Prophet of up to level 10, who created this garden, living in seclusion and cultivating various magic plants,” Freyja continued to relay the contents of the diary, her expression becoming even more solemn.

Seeing no change in Char’s expression and realizing his clear lack of common knowledge, Freyja explained: “Above level 10 are the advanced professionals. The vast majority of Transcendents spend their entire lives without breaking through to level 10.”

“In our tribe, apart from those Elves who are selected for positions in the capital, very few reach or exceed level 10, and the strongest in our clan is only level 12, not much higher than Kedel, the Winged Elf predecessor.”

“And considering the Natural Prophet’s powerful and comprehensive combat capability, Kedel’s combat strength might not have been inferior to that of the strongest in our clan. Of course, this is under the presumption that we don’t count the Jade Flying Dragon.”

“With Kedel’s strength being so formidable, he still couldn’t completely prevent the outbreak of the Undead calamity and even died because of it.”

“Such a level of Undead disaster is beyond our capacity to resolve,” Freyja said with a serious expression.

As an Elf who loved nature and had a heart for justice, when she heard from Char that there was a Land of Undead nearby, inhabited by a large number of Undead, she thought to do everything within her power to prevent the crisis from erupting.

Even if there were no intelligent beings living nearby, and it was only to protect the forest itself and the myriad creatures inhabiting it, she still felt compelled to act.

But now, having read through Kedel’s diary, she realized it was a crisis that neither she nor Char could solve—even though Char had just witnessed what seemed to be a divine miracle, acquiring a powerful Flying Dragon.

Acting rashly would only result in their own demise.

Hearing Freyja say this, Char’s expression also became more solemn, then he heard her shift the topic.

“Fortunately, even though Kedel failed to eliminate the Undead and prevent the crisis from erupting, he successfully sealed the source of death—a level 12 Undead Mage. So over the years, the Power of Death and the numerous low-level Undead could only spread by instinct.”

“If that Undead Mage hadn’t been sealed, I fear the area we are in would have already been destroyed by the Undead, transformed into a Land of Undead by now, and this Land of Undead would have probably expanded toward the direction of the Florence Kingdom a long time ago, connecting with the Land of Undead within the kingdom and forming an even larger Undead calamity.”

Char nodded unconsciously.

This was within his expectations; if this Land of Undead had its own consciousness, no matter how much the Garden Secret Realm could confuse the Perception of the Undead, it couldn’t possibly have survived—you might fool those low-level, unintelligent Undead, but could you also fool high-level Undead?

That’s why Char dared to stay; he had realized early on that this Land of Undead was only spreading instinctively.

“What exactly is going on?” Char asked.

“Let me start from the beginning,” Freyja said.

“The source of the Undead crisis is a small town called ‘Fallen Leaf Town,’ initially established by a group of Florentines seeking refuge in the Florence Forest. As more and more people from the outside world joined, the number of races grew, gradually forming a town of nearly ten thousand inhabitants, including humans, Elves, Half-Elves, as well as a few Dwarves, Centaurs, Half-orcs and even Half-Beasts.”

“Different races coexisted harmoniously in Fallen Leaf Town. Although there were occasional conflicts and disputes, they were quickly resolved by the Priest of the Dawn God, and everyone remained a loving and supportive family until—the arrival of the Undead Mage.”

“Wait, the Dawn God?” Char interrupted Freyja.

Nearly ten thousand people, comprising different races, living together in the forest as lovingly as a family—it sounded too mythical, like a scene only found in fairy tales brimming with childish innocence.

However, Char was clearly more concerned about the Dawn God than that.

‘The Dawn God, who is that? Lord of Dawn, Losanda?’ Char thought to himself.

“Yes, the Dawn God, the divine ruler of the morning light, universal love, and peace; but He has already fallen.”

???

!!!

Char’s expression changed drastically.

He had actually, through an unfortunate twist of fate, traversed to the era of the Divine Struggle!

“You don’t know?”

Seeing that Char seemed genuinely unaware of the Dawn God and His fall, Freyja was astounded.

If it were some common knowledge that Char did not know, Freyja could understand.

After all, what’s common knowledge to one person may not be to another, and if Char grew up in a remote, secluded environment, it would make sense that he couldn’t access much knowledge.

But the gods were involved in every aspect of people’s lives, and the fall of the Dawn God was an event that shook the world. Char not knowing about it was truly abnormal.

“I have amnesia. I woke up in the Florence Forest, only remembering my name and the common tongue of the continent, and even my arrow skills were picked up again after retraining. Aside from the carriage in the garden, there was nothing else around me,” Char explained.

Whether Freyja believed him or not, Char at least needed to provide a plausible explanation on the surface.

“You’ve lost your memory? Are you alright? Do you feel any discomfort or something off?” Freyja asked with a start, showing concern.

Char deliberately furrowed his brow and paused for a few seconds, as if recalling something, then after a while, he said, “I don’t feel any discomfort.”

Freyja’s expression remained serious; she sincerely cared about Char’s condition.

“Maybe in the future, I could ask the elders of my clan to try and help you recover your memory. But that will have to wait until you’re strong enough,” Freyja said.

The legacy of Kedel White Eagle was nothing significant; even if her kin knew, they wouldn’t grow greedy for it.

But the miraculous light that instantly transformed the Ghost Flying Lizard was a different matter.

Even if Freyja believed her kin to be upright and kind, she couldn’t guarantee they wouldn’t be tempted by greed.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have made the excuse of traveling to leave her tribe.

Remembering the reason she left the tribe, Freyja’s heart became heavier.

“Thank you,” Char said with a smile.

Then, Freyja thoughtfully started to introduce the history to Char.

“The Siran Continent was originally a continent of tranquillity and harmony. Although there were occasional disputes among the gods, they never escalated to a life-or-death situation and no deity had ever fallen in history.”

‘That’s not right, is it? So peaceful? Is this even a D&D world?’

‘But D&D is inherently a multiverse concept, and Siran Continent is clearly an unknown Main Material Plane, so it’s not that strange.’

‘By the way, this answers one of my previous doubts, which is why there’s a deity like the Moonlight Goddess Bai Ying whom I’ve never heard of.’

‘Clearly, this Moonlight Goddess is a native deity of the Siran Continent.’

First, Char was shocked, finding it unbelievable and incomprehensible, but after thinking it over, it made sense.

“There has never been a great war among the gods, so naturally, there were none among the different races. Before disaster struck, the Siran Continent really was a bountiful and peaceful world,” Freyja continued to introduce, clearly proud and nostalgic when talking about the former Siran Continent.

“Then, the gaze of the Evil Gods turned towards this place.”

“First, it was conspiracy. A network of intrigue eroded the world and pried open the gates of the planes. Then came tyranny, which shattered the existing order and dealt a heavy blow to the world, and after that, death descended.”

“The deities of Siran united to resist but fell back step by step. The Dawn God fell during this period. At the most perilous moment, the Dawn arrived; the forest regained its vitality, beings of the Siran Continent welcomed hope once more, and regained the courage to fight their fate.”

“But the calamity is not yet over, and the eyes of the Evil Gods still watch over this once bountiful and peaceful land.”
