From Secret Clan to the Divine Dynasty

When Chris returned, the entire Nasir City was abuzz, and countless people cheered and leaped for joy.

“We won!”

“Long live the Fischer family!”

“Hahaha! Long live the Fischer family! Long live the Cyart!”

Having established their influence over nearly a century, no matter what the opinions were from the outside world, Nasir citizens absolutely had no doubt about the Fischer family!

Even if the Fischer family truly believed in another divine entity, it would only prove one thing… That it was a greater existence than those gods, more worthy of worship!

“They fear your power, Father… whereas we revere it,” Christine said from her wheelchair within the Fischer Manor, looking at her father with eyes full of respect and admiration.

“Sooner or later, those people will submit to the power of the Fischer family,” Darren, standing in the shadows, said with a smile and an undisguised malice.

Chris walked calmly through the crowd, with a neutral expression on his face, as everyone was pushed aside by an unknown force, like water parting to let him pass through.

He was indifferent.

Just by watching Chris Fischer, the genuine embodiment of the Death God, every member of the Dawn Church and every Cyart person felt an indescribable sense of sentiment and awe.

Chris was like the brightest star in the Fischer family’s lineage, his power exceeding the limits of what ordinary people could imagine!

In everyone’s eyes, there was always a glow of reverence and yearning, feeling the great strength of his power, and feeling even more for everything he had contributed to the Fischer family.

Under Chris’s influence, many young Cyart individuals who witnessed this great crisis vowed to protect Cyart. Among them, the extraordinary exponents aspired to become powerful like him, contributing their own strength to the glory of the Fischer family and the future of Cyart.

Today, for most people, the Fischer family and Cyart have become deeply intertwined concepts.

The “War of the East” was considered an important turning point for the Ouden Continent’s political structure. From then on, the Eastern Cyart alliance was regarded as a “player” level top-tier force, no longer just a powerful pawn.

The war’s final outcome resulted in nearly a hundred monarch powerful experts from various forces being held as hostages in Cyart, deprived of their freedom for a long time, while the divine powers looming over the East remained a tangible presence, no matter what, the Heavenly Enlightenment from outside could not get in.

The terrifying strength of Cyart’s Fischer family, and the fame of that “Death God” Chris Fischer, reached a new pinnacle, utterly shocking the world, and everyone was stunned by such an outcome.

“Until the power of the gods has completely dissipated, we must not move against Cyart and the Fischer family again…”

Not long after the war, this statement uttered by Prime Minister William in parliament quickly became a collective consensus among all major powers on the Ouden Continent.

And so, peace came to the Eastern part of the continent.

However, while peace arrived in the east of the Ouden Continent, continuous annexation wars broke out elsewhere on the continent.

Because, over the decades, the True Gods Church’s influence had waned greatly, so the rules that the gods had long established had utterly become null and void, particularly when the Fischer family had killed a Cardinal, directly striking a grave blow to the originally supreme rule of divine authority.

In just a short span of a decade, the Dragon Bay area in the western Ouden Continent, the Land of Stars, and the Triangle City States, lacking heavenly enlightenment, succumbed to the pressure and submitted to the still very strong Lorne Empire.

The Lorne citizens didn’t even need to lose a single soldier while conquering them.

Only the Silver Moon City, supported by the Thrums Dukedom, the Silver Moon Church, and the Seven Suns Empire People, desperately resisted the invasion, leading to a fierce war between the two sides.

But as everyone could see, the power gap was so large that the outcome was already determined.

Even the Middle Rank “Crown” of the Apocalypse from the Primordial Tree couldn’t turn the tide when he personally joined the battle.

Blocked by the Millennium Pope of the Salvation Church for over ten hours, he failed to prevent Prime Minister William and Iron Blood Marshal Horatio from slaughtering tens of thousands in a critical battle, almost causing certain city-states to collapse.

Not long after, even the Pope of the Silver Moon Church died under mysterious circumstances, though naturally, the Lorne citizens didn’t admit to being involved, and there was no concrete eyewitness evidence.

Finally, after three years of warfare, all the Silver Moon City-States declared complete surrender, with nearly a million soldiers and civilians from Silver Moon City-States, Thrums Dukedom, and the western Ouden Continent killed or injured throughout the war.

The remaining high-level Monarch Cardinal of the Silver Moon Church fled and vanished without a trace. From then on, the Silver Moon Church was thoroughly debilitated, and any new Cardinals or even Pope candidates had to be nominated by the Emperor of Lorne.

With that, the majority of the western Ouden Continent was integrated into Lorne territory, marking the period as the “Era of Transformation”!

The shadow hegemony of Lorne loomed over half the world’s population.

In an era when the gods were no longer in sight, they were undoubtedly the true world rulers!

However, after conquering numerous regions and nations, the Lorne citizens then stopped.

Behind the Thrums Dukedom stood the mighty “Primordial Tree,” while the Terrara Church State boasted the Child of the Sun God and the Sun Church, making them very difficult to conquer. Thus, they had yet to be subdued by the exhausted Lorne citizens.

With uprisings and turmoil in the conquered regions of the Lorne Empire emerging one after another and internal public dissatisfaction with the war gradually intensifying, wealth distribution became increasingly uneven. The disparity in living standards was so vast that it could be said a chasm existed between heaven and hell within the nation. As a result, they were forced to slow their pace and begin to address the domestic troubles.

As for the powerful Seven Stars Empire, it fell silent during the period when the Lorne people were desperately and frantically expanding.

It seemed they were plotting a most critical plan, one that everything else could temporarily be ignored, and many could surmise what sort of outcome such a plan would ultimately lead to.

Many were kept awake at night by the presence of the “Military God,” the strongest force.

Over the course of a decade, the Fischer family steadily completed its total control over the Eastern Continent. At the same time, the power of the Dawn Church also began to expand outward, infiltrating not only Lorne and the Seven Stars but even the overseas colonies of other nations.

This part was mainly managed by the “demon of Cyart” Darren Fischer and the “witch” Hecate. Both of them lacked what one might call a moral bottom line. Using various methods, they began to insert Dawn Church followers into families, industries, and professions of all nations.

If they could control a family or an industry, all the better!

In fact, they succeeded more than once, continuously expanding the sphere of influence of the Dawn Church.

The Dawn Church expanded stealthily and cautiously. However, as the number of its followers grew and their activities increased, no matter how cautious they were, they could not avoid detection, especially since the higher-ups of the various nations noticing them were no fools.

Thus, when they occasionally stumbled in their plans to take control of families, industries, or important figures in enemy countries—either through oversight or perhaps because the plan was complete, but coincidences and accidents occurred.

One time, an attempt to control the education system of a Lorne overseas colony abruptly failed, resulting in hundreds of followers of the Lord of the Lost being arrested and tried by the local church and Lorne citizens. This incident occurred after a local headmaster who had reached the 4th Rank of the Path of Knowledge chose to commit suicide.

The concept of the “Power of Consecution” nearly came to light!

Upon learning of the existence of the “Power of Consecution,” the Lorne high command immediately sealed off the news, completely banning any discourse about it from spreading.

They were truly frightened this time…

Even more so than when Chris reached “Heavenly Enlightenment.”

Power of Consecution?

What in the world was that…

Could even ordinary people, without an Extraordinary bloodline, achieve great power?

Incredible!

Shocking!

The Fischer family and the Dawn Church, along with their backing powerful divinities, undoubtedly possessed the power to change the social fabric!

Their power, elusive and uncontrollable, filled people with fear and despair… but also held an irresistible allure and draw!

Soon, seven years passed.

At thirty-two, Moter Fischer and Elena Locke were married last year, and to this day have no offspring.

His older brother, thirty-five-year-old Cyart Grand Prince Auston Fischer, married a woman from the Romann family and had two daughters.

His twenty-eight-year-old sister Margo Fischer married a man from the Frosac family and had two sons and a daughter.

Carter, the son of Felix, had reached forty-five years of age and had married women from two different families due to familial interests, ultimately fathering two sons and two daughters.

The number of direct members in the Fischer family had reached twenty-three.

Eventually, for easier management of the entire East, the Fischer family underwent a division.

To this day, the Fischer families of the white-haired lineage and the black-haired lineage have been distinctively known as “White” and “Black” respectively, headed by Christine and Darren.

As for the family’s greatest legend, “Death God” Chris, he was often missing without a trace, very mysterious, and he seemed to have no involvement in the division of the family.

For many of the new generation, that ancestor was already a thorough legend.

When the family divided, due to the marital alliance with Queen Arte, the capital city Nasir and Cyart were left to Christine and other “White Fischers.”

Darren Fischer took the “Black Fischers” northward from Cyart, and they established a new family stronghold on the ruins of the Rhea Capital.

Time silently moved into the Blazing Sun Era year 1900.

Due to the vast influx of Spiritual Power over twenty years, Karl finally sensed that The Eighth Seal, which had been suppressing him, was about to be broken!

“Just one final touch is still needed… I need the power of a single-digit Forbidden rare artifact; unfortunately, I still haven’t found a way to unseal that ‘Omnipotent Vision.'”

The “Black Fischer” family was also preparing to celebrate a hundredth birthday banquet for their Family Head Darren Fischer, an event that would not only include their own internal family members but also the “White Fischers” along with various families and powers from across the Eastern Continent offering congratulations.
