I.. Am God?

He then created five planets that are hidden throughout the galaxy. He then bestowed the Zelds with knowledge of the current laws of his galaxy.

With the knowledge, the Zelds suddenly possessed the ability to control space, achieving the ability to teleport to the other planets that was entrusted by the Creator after the ruling Zeld explained it to everyone.

Now, the White Dwarf Galaxy or the Milky Way Galaxy has another line of defense against outsiders.

He then returned to the encamped Andromedans.

"So, who are the ones that attacked my domain?" Matthias asked Skeirom.

Skeirom, of course, replied, "They are of the Saikeha Faction west of your galaxy. They are a warmongering faction, factions that only focus on conquering the Universe. They don't care even if billions die on their conquest, as long as they successfully conquered galaxies."

"So, what faction are you?" Matthias inquired.

"Our Galactic Sky Faction is an Alliance-type, solely existing to help other lords. Do you want to join us?" Skeirom asked politely.

"No thank you. But I can establish a close pact with your faction so we could ally with each other when needed." Matthias shook his head and replied.

"That could work too." Skeirom nodded. He extended his hand and said, "Let us cooperate for the time to come."

Matthias smiled slightly and shaked Skeirom's hand.

,m On that day, The White Dwarf Galaxy, or the galaxy that Matthias legally changed the name to Matheon Galaxy, formally declared its sovereignty over the region, established alliance with the Galactic Sky Faction, and formally declared its hostility against the Saikeha Faction.

Matthias then went to meet Jeremy, Key, and the others before going with the Four Authorities to the Immortal Territories.

"Jeremy, Key, I want you to lead Earth to advance technologically as soon as possible." Matthias said, startling them.

"Why? What will happen?" Key asked worriedly.

"Jeremy, did you remember the advanced civilization inside my domain?" Matthias asked.

"Betania? Yeah." He nodded.

"Currently, the Order of their Galactic Federation is currently in a state of chaos. The current leading faction inside is the Imperial Faction, led by mages. The original Betanians are currently rebelling and warring against the Established Empire." He explained, "The galaxies have already merged. Those two factions have the chance to encounter Earth. The only choice that Earth could have is either join the rebels or fight for the Empire. If the Earthlings don't want any of that, they need to further strengthen their technology and establish their own Faction to vie for power and have authority over the galaxy."

"There is also another Galactic Order that is a mix of different races inside the past Milky Way or the new Matheon Galaxy. They control ten thousand worlds inside the galaxy. Currently, their prowess is as strong as the old Republic. Now that it is in shambles, the Order is currently the strongest of the three."

"So, inside the Galaxy, there are three factions, namely The Empire, The Republic Rebels, and The Order?" Jeremy confirmed. Matthias nodded in affirmation.

"Okay. Leave it to us. Now that the governments are currently preparing for interstellar travel, we could use the momentum and jump to become a galactic civilization and first colonize Mars!" Jeremy nodded.

"Okay. Just do it quickly." Matthias then turned around and went to Alphan.

Alphan has changed a lot already. Cultivation Empires and Sects rose and fell, and geniuses lord over all weaklings.

Currently, the strongest sect in Alphan is still the hidden Chaos Sect, where Sana became the former Saintess. They are extremely hidden from the mortal world, and will only recruit people that they deemed as a genius of the Chaos Law, a genius among geniuses.

Although they are extremely hidden, the three strongest sects below them know of their existence, and are fearful of them. Even if the strongest sects band together to assault the secret realm where the sect was based, they wouldn't even be able to go against the sect's inner disciples.

The abilities of the disciples to alter all things and send the energies of their enemies in chaos counters every sect.

The current hegemonic Empire in Alphan will be the Glorious Empire of the Glorious Continent, located far east of the Divine Continent, the first continent of Alphan. Its influence reaches its neighboring continents, and the quality of livelihood there is tantamount to perfection. Anyone who has the nerve to declare war against the Empire to expand their reaches will face the Empire's 2,000,000-men Glorious Army.

Cultivation Academies are all around the Empire, raising its strength even more.

Its millennials-worth of legacy is the greatest in the current age.

Matthias looked at it and shook his head because of what he was seeing. "The saying is absolutely true. All great things will always come to an end."

With what he was seeing, there were currently seven different large dukedoms that were preparing for rebellion. A little more than half of the Glorious Army and seventeen of its middle-tier generals are loyal, not to the throne, but to the dukedoms.

The current Emperor is greatly weakening due to old age.

Beneath a great academy's facade, was an assassin school made solely to counter the royal family.

Inside the royal family, there are also internal conflicts for the inheritance of the throne. Corrupt officials and puppets under the seven dukedoms are proliferating the Imperial Council.

He shook his head once more and flew towards an unassuming island that is as large as Japan.

"Black, come forth." Matthias landed in the middle of a forest and spoke. In front of him, in a shadow being emitted by an incredibly huge tree, a black figure rose.

"Greetings, Lord." Black knelt in his black cloak respectfully.

"How are the trainees? Have you found any?" Matthias asked.

"Yes, my lord." Black nodded, "I have found 201 orphans across your domain who have potential. They are now polished and are ready for any orders."

He looked behind him. Figures of men and women cloaked in black descended. They then knelt towards Matthias, "Greetings, Lord!"

Matthias nodded with satisfaction, "Impressive. They have already reached the Emperor Stage cultivation." (There are 10 stages in Alphan, namely Body Tempering, Qi Assimilation where all of the cultivation regarding Qi takes place like Qi Refining, Golden Core, and so on. There's also Ascension, Emperor, Emperor Cycle, where one repeats the first two stages, Saint, Saint Cycle, Godking, Ruler, and Divine Ascension.)

"Yes, Lord. I have made a cultivation technique solely and specially for Shadow Assassins. They are prepared for any of yor command." Black replied.

"Very well." Matthias nodded. "I shall call you 'The Order of The Black Crow'. Serve me well." Matthias waved his hand and 201 gray badges with a black crow in the middle appeared in front of the assassins.

"These shall be your symbols of identity. We will journey towards a new world." Matthias said and turned, looking up at the sky.

Above, the Four Authorities descended and knelt towards him.

"Are we returning now, Lord Monarch?" Cane asked.

Matthias nodded, "I have seen everything that I need to see. It is time. I inherited the legacy of The First Emperor, and I am willing to make his empire return to its greatest." Matthias said as he looked at the far horizon, reminiscing of the conversation that he had when he was ascending...

"You are Qin Shihuang?" Matthias asked with shock written all over his face. Around him was a peaceful grassland with incredibly fresh air.

"You know me? I don't sense the energy of my world inside you." A stoic man that exudes greatness and majesty replied with curiosity. He was wearing a black Chinese Imperial Robe and a Chinese Imperial Crown.

"Yes, Great Emperor. In my world, you led the Qin State and united All Under Heaven under your command. You formed propositions and laws that strengthened your dynasty." Matthias replied respectfully while cupping his fist. He sensed the strength inside Qin Shihuang and knew that just his soul was leagues above him. He wasn't the typical mortal that his Earth's rulers were.

"Hmm.. I guess I did that? Sorry, the memories of my days in the mortal world are already very distant to me." Qin Shihuang chuckled.

"Anyways.."The emperor returned to his stoic expression, "I am here to extend you an offer." He said.

"What offer is it?" Matthias asked.

"I want you to inherit my legacy. My Empire has fallen because of its name. There is currently no capable ruler that can lead it. I want you to lead it to greatness once more and re-establish my Sun Devouring Empire once more." Qin Shihuang answered with a deep and authoritative voice.

"I just want to see my empire rise to its glory once more." He looked at the scenery with a sense of longing in his eyes. "You see, my inheritance was almost impossible to get. But you devouring a whole star attracted my inheritance to you. So, I want you to inherit my throne."

"Hmm.." Matthias thought for a moment, "..Can I change the name of the territory into the Qin Dynasty until I unite the old territories? It's because the name 'Sun Devouring Empire' really is kind of offensive." He asked politely.

"You could, yes. But you must return it to its old name once you unite the lands." Qin Shihuang nodded and replied sternly.

"Okay then. I accept the inheritance." Matthias nodded and replied. "I, Matthias, The Sun Devouring God, formally inherits the legacy of the Sun Devouring Empire and fulfill the longing of the First Emperor."

After he said that, he glowed like the sun, shining brightly across the horizon. Qin Shihuang looked at him with approval and a smile. "I hope you succeed."

Matthias smiled thinking of that memory. He didn't want to disappoint the Emperor so..

A portal opened, leading to another world. "My Liege, Shall we?" Cane asked with a welcoming gesture.

Matthias nodded. They walked in with the assassins and Black entering Matthias' shadow.

He shall begin a new adventure, leading a fallen kingdom to prosperity once again.
