First Year of the Holy Calendar, Escarnia.
Below the heavens, above the earth.
The pitch-black invincible metal transformed into a flowing liquid.
In Shiayar's eyes, the tiny Runes formed by the Alchemy Matrix slowly rotated.
The spells of alchemy were applied to this flowing invincible metal. Under Jayee's control, it gathered beneath Shiayar's feet, forming one pitch-black metallic platform after another, each as dark as ink.
These dark platforms floated in the void. With every step Shiayar took, the platform behind him would dissipate into scattered particles, only to congeal into a new step ahead of him.
One by one, metallic staircases materialized in the void.
And so, Shiayar ascended these stairs, walking step by step towards the night sky.
Amid the starry night, a hazy city appeared intermittently in the ocean of stars.
Is this the Millennium Castle spoken of in the legends of Escarnia?
Shiayar's pace was unhurried, yet his speed was not slow at all.
