Chapter 808: 403

This was a hefty notebook, and the title and author on the cover surprised Mu You for a moment.

"Minor Cataclysm Essays," Written by: the Black Clothed One—Carman Lana.

"Eh?"

Mu You first noticed the name.

The Black Clothed One! Wasn’t that one of the elders of the Wizard Association?

The Arcane Association’s ten great elders consisted of ten old men dressed in different colored garments, among whom the White Clothed One had already been dealt with by him and Lin Xue.

According to Vivian, the trio of elders clad in black, white, and gray seemed to be the very founders of the Wizard Association.

That this notebook was written by the Black Clothed One...

Mu You suddenly became very interested, and hastily flipped it open to look through.

"I must admit, the Fools truly are a group of magical and charming people—until they caused trouble, that’s what I always thought..."

"...At first, no one knew where these people came from, only that they had magical abilities, enabling them to easily disguise themselves as any race... These people always espoused the most fanciful ideas, seemingly natural-born adventurers, never content to remain confined..."

"...With various avant-garde ideas and their ability to disguise themselves, the Fools easily dominated a hundred races and became the overlords of the Star Spirit World. They also helped our Human Race—originally a frail and short-lived species—to occupy several superior pieces of land, to establish several kingdoms, and eventually grow into the second greatest race after the Fools..."

"...However, the condition for the Fools’ support of the Human Race was that we help them build the Sky City... We, at first naive and unaware, gladly agreed and dedicated our tribe’s strength, laboring earnestly to build the Twelve Sky Cities for them..."

"...But in this process, we gradually uncovered the Fools’ secret: they were blaspheming against the gods, using God’s Corpse as fuel! We also guessed their intentions: they wanted to use the Sky Cities to fly beyond Sky High and set foot in the gods’ domain... They were playing with fire! I had a premonition that their actions could very likely bring disaster upon the Star Spirit World..."

"...I united with several other insightful individuals to advise the Fools, hoping they would abandon their plan to ascend to the skies... The Fools rejected us outright... They truly were madmen! Only mindful of themselves, they disregarded the interests and safety of other races... Alas, by then the Sky Cities had already been completed, and we no longer had the power to stop them..."

"...In the year 2405 of the Star Spirit Calendar, the Fools finally made all their preparations... That day, they boarded the Twelve Sky Cities with the blessings of many races, ascended into the sky, and disappeared into the clouds, leaving no trace behind, a disappearance that lasted for two hundred years..."

"...Over those two hundred years, I and a few old companions established the Wizard Association, taking over from the Fools to manage the power and order of the Star Spirit World..."

"...But I knew it wouldn’t be so simple; I always felt the shadow of disaster looming over my head, a fact underscored by the abrupt disappearance of several races without cause: something was happening beyond the sky..."

"...As expected, the Fools caused a huge mess! More and more races disappeared because of them... Until one day in the year 2605 of the Star Spirit Calendar, exactly two hundred years later, the Fools returned to the Star Spirit World aboard the Sky Cities, fleeing in panic from the heights above, and what followed them down were even more terrifying entities..."

"...That day, the entire Star Spirit World suffered greatly... The Fools, with all their might, eliminated those entities, yet they clearly faced retribution; all the Fools were struck with a terrible curse, became incredibly weak, and could no longer use any magic..."

"...The Fools begged for our forgiveness, hoping we would aid them in repairing the Sky Cities. Naturally, we refused the Fools; now they were nothing but a source of calamity in our eyes, with the concepts of adventure and exploration deeply entrenched in their marrow, keeping them would only bring disaster upon our land once again... So we gathered the powers of the Wizard Association and hunted down the Fools everywhere..."

"...In the end, only a very few Fools managed to escape back to their origin—the Forgotten Land—while those who failed to flee in time were ruthlessly exterminated by us..."

"...And so, the Fools became history in the Star Spirit World, never to appear again..."

"...Yet I know that it’s not over, for on the other side of the wall, there are still more Fools. Fools who have failed will not learn their lesson; perhaps they’re silently licking their wounds... Sooner or later, they will make a comeback..."
