Chapter 387: A Few Decades Have Passed, Subduing The Demon King Of Pride
"Finally! All my internal injuries are healed."
Alister Wright, his black hair glistening and crimson red eyes gleaming with satisfaction, emerged from the Sea of Chaos, a triumphant grin on his face.
It had been a few decades since he had entered these chaotic waters, but now, fully restored, he celebrated his smooth recovery.
During his time in the Sea of Chaos, Alister had absorbed vast amounts of chaotic energy, using it to painstakingly repair the injuries from his life-or-death battle with Ignar, the God of Fire
The process had not been easy. Injuries inflicted by a High God were incredibly difficult to heal, but Alister had done it. Now, his body was as good as new, and he could use his full power without fear of aggravating his wounds.
In fact, during his time in recovery, Alister had grown stronger. He had gained valuable insights into his path to godhood, gleaned from his battle with Ignar. What had once seemed like a misfortune had turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
Reflecting on the time he spent in seclusion, Alister smiled.
Although he had been largely isolated, Zanna and Lynn had visited him every five years,
bringing him updates on the progress of the Wright Pantheon.
Zanna had taken on the mantle of leadership in his stead, managing the Wright Pantheon with her usual grace and efficiency.
As his God Queen, Zanna was well-suited for the task, given her experience as the former Spirit Queen of Chaos. While Lynn, also his God Queen, was incredibly intelligent and bold, she lacked Zanna's experience in governance.
Instead, Lynn had focused on advancing her research on the zombie virus, seeking ways to improve it and strengthen herself.
Zanna's leadership had not only stabilized the Wright Pantheon during his absence but expanded its influence.
One of her most notable achievements had been subduing the Demon King of Pride, Arctos Daemon.
Zanna had personally convinced Arctos to join the Wright Pantheon as a God Officer, giving him equal status and authority to the hero party.
Arctos Daemon, once the second strongest native in the Magic Fantasy World, had earned this position not only because of his raw power but also due to his foresight.
While the heroes and other major powers had gods to represent them, the demon race remained without a divine protector.
Knowing he could not afford to refuse the offer, Arctos accepted Zanna's guidance and underwent the godhead creation and integration process.
In the few decades that Alister had been in seclusion, Arctos had ascended to godhood, becoming the Demon God of Pride.
With his newfound divinity, he surpassed many of the gods in the Wright Pantheon, once again asserting his position as one of the most powerful figures in the Magic Fantasy World.
Along with Arctos, his demon generals had also joined the Wright Pantheon as subordinate gods, strengthening the Pantheon's ranks considerably.
Under Zanna's careful management, the Wright Pantheon had grown more formidable, and Alister could sense that it had become a dominant force in the world during his absence.
Now, standing at the edge of the Sea of Chaos, Alister felt a renewed sense of purpose. He had healed, and the Wright Pantheon was thriving. It was time to leave this place and return to his life outside the Sea of Chaos.
With a determined smile, Alister began his journey back to Zanna's mansion, the chaotic energy of the sea swirling behind him as he left.

Upon reaching Zanna's mansion, Alister felt a surge of warmth as he crossed the threshold. The familiar surroundings brought him comfort, but more importantly, he was eager to see Zanna and Lynn again.
Alister knew that the time had come to make a crucial decision. His recovery from the Sea of Chaos was complete, and the full-dive simulation had served its purpose.
He had accomplished all that he needed to and was now ready to claim the SS-grade rewards that awaited him.
However, before ending the simulation, he wanted to speak with Zanna and Lynn.
They had been by his side for so long, through battles and victories, and while he couldn't tell them about the simulation or the World Travel Simulator System, there were other things to discuss.
The secrets of the system, after all, were his alone to bear-at least until he reached the fabled status of a Zero-Digit Existence.
Alister had already estimated that the creators of the World Travel Simulator System were likely One-Digit Existences.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
This meant that the system itself had a limit-at most, it could take him to the level of a One- Digit Existence.
Beyond that, when he reached Two-Digit or higher, he would need to rely on his own abilities, as the system would no longer be able to guide him.
But that day was far off. Alister was still a Six-Digit God, and it would take countless years of growth, battles, and experiences before he could even consider reaching Two-Digit status, let alone the level of a One-Digit Existence.
For now, his focus was on the present.
As Alister entered Zanna's mansion, the familiar warmth and serenity of the place washed over him.
He put thoughts of the system aside and turned his attention to the two women who meant the most to him-Zanna and Lynn.

Alister spent the next month reconnecting with Zanna and Lynn, catching up on lost time and savoring the moments they shared.
Whether it was sparring sessions, playful banter, or simply relaxing in each other's company, Alister enjoyed every second.
Zanna continued to amaze him with her maturity and grace, managing the affairs of the Wright Pantheon flawlessly. Lynn, with her bold and youthful energy, had been hard at work refining her zombie virus, always seeking new ways to push the boundaries of what she could
achieve.
After the month had passed, Alister gathered Zanna and Lynn to discuss the next steps for their future.
"I've been thinking," Alister began, his tone thoughtful but firm. "It's time to expand the influence of the Wright Pantheon beyond the Magic Fantasy World."
