Chapter 20 - History

After walking through the final door upstairs, I was met with a completely barren room. Except for the single bed positioned next to an opening that led to a balcony, there was nothing in the room.

Pat!

I dropped myself on the bed, lying on my back and covering my face with my arm.

Sigh...

A subtle lift from my chest as I released the effect of [Dramatization].

I moved my hand away from my face and stared blankly at the ceiling. I finally had time to properly rest. After six months, I could actually rest comfortably.

'Ever since waking up in this world, I have never truly done nothing.'

I shifted my gaze through to the opening—to the darkening sky that held an orange and purple hue, signifying the coming of twilight.

'On earth, I would probably have been lazing around the whole time.'

I stared at the darkening sky.

The orange and purple sky shifted into a dark blue as the minutes passed. Not long after, the first star appeared in the sky, more slowly showing themselves as more time went by. Eventually, the sky became completely veiled in black, the twinkling stars dotting its vast expanse.

The moon, which had long climbed high, shone her shimmering silver light down, illuminating the dark world.

I sat up on the bed, shifting my focus away from the night sky, and muttered.

"Eve."

[Yes.] Her voice now sounding much clearer.

I listened to her simple reply. I could easily tell that her voice sounded much closer and clearer than before. Though, the etherealness of her voice did not change much.

I chose not to mention it as I already knew why this change occurred. It was because I had become stronger. Thus, I continued.

"I need your help. I want to compile all the extra memories I've gained."

[That is doable. How would you like it?]

I thought for a moment, as I needed to be able to digest these memories properly, they had to be organized in a way I could do so. I looked at the illusory golden words before me.

"Organize them by categories, and by least to most mystical."

[As you wish.]

After her reply, the golden words shifted and transformed. After a few seconds, three words appeared in front of me.

[History] - [Mystic] - [Divinity]

I stared at the words. contemplating what I should use first. Without hesitation, I brought my hand forward and touched [History].

The other two words disappeared, and three more words appeared under it.

[History]

-{World}

-{Radus}

I continued and touched the {World} section.

-{World}

'What? There was nothing but also everything?'

I struggled to understand these words. I pinched the bridge of my nose in confusion, as if trying to bring forward an understanding.

'Whatever... This isn't something I'll be able to understand.' 

My eyes returned to the words before me.

The light took the form of a human made purely of light, dubbing itself as the creator. At the center of a certain island, the creator created a magnificent tree that rose high enough to pierce the clouds with its silver wood and cast a crimson shade with its ethereal, red leaves.

The creator then created three humans— a woman whom he dubbed Lilith, and two children, Adam and Eve. Then he created many animals and different creatures along with them.>

After reading to the end of what was there, I thought about what I had read.

'This is kind of confusing. Not only that, but something about this feels strange.'

I racked my brain trying to figure out what about it made me feel that way, reading the words over and over.

Eventually, I gave up. There seemed to be nothing to find, so I continued to the next section.

-{Radius}

<4th era- year 1239

In an unnamed tribe of about 100 people, extreme famine and sickness plagued the land. Many of the tribes men died. Women, children, old, and young— everyone was dying, no one spared.

All hope was lost— about half of the tribes people had died by the end of the month. One day, a woman of emesureable beauty descended from the sky, moth wings extending from her back.

She landed at the center of the tribe, the ground around her feet sprouting grass and flowers. Her hands rose to the sky, and a light washed over the land, healing the sick and dying and restoring the plan life, bringing back the animals.

From that moment, all in the unnamed tribe pledged their life to the woman, who had revealed herself to be the Mother of Desire.

4th era- year 1240

The unnamed village was named the Radius village, after the symbol of the mother—a heart holding heald many circles, which a first glance, looked like a spiral.

A revelation was sent by the Mother of a change in her symbol. It was now a heart containing a four-pointed star.

Current day Radius.

'So that's what she did.'

A smile creeped on to my face.

'She wouldn't mind if I took a little inspiration, would she?'

Developing a plan in my mind, I continued to the next category.

My hand reached forward and pressed.
