Divine Realm â Upper Heavens
The moment my Divine Position stabilizedâ
The Divine Realm trembled.
It wasn't a violent quake, nor a visible shockwave. To mortalsâor even lower godsâit would have gone unnoticed. But to beings who had ruled this realm since its foundationâŠ
It was unmistakable.
Across the vast Divine Dragon Realm, twelve immense thrones resonated in unison.
High above the layered heavens, beyond ordinary divine domains, lay the Dragon Courtâa place where space itself curved in deference. Rivers of immortal energy flowed like veins through the sky, converging upon a colossal central platform carved from laws older than most gods.
One by one, ancient eyes opened.
The First Ripple
At the easternmost throne, a dragon wreathed in stormclouds slowly lifted his head.
Lightning crackled along his horns as his slit pupils narrowed.
"âŠThat feeling," he rumbled.
This was the Thunder Dragon King, master of judgment and heavenly punishment.
"It is not a breakthrough from within our race."
His tail lashed, splitting space with a muted thunderclap.
"A First-Class position has stabilized."
The air grew heavier.
A second presence stirredâvast, suffocating, ancient beyond measure.
From a throne entwined with molten gold and living flame, the Fire Dragon King exhaled slowly.
"Impossible," she said coldly. "No Dragon King has attempted ascension recently."
Her gaze swept the heavens, searching.
"No one informed the court."
At the northern throne, frost bloomed.
The Void Dragon King, whose body appeared half-merged with space itself, opened his eyes last.
"They wouldn't dare ascend without approval," he said calmly.
Silence followed.
Thenâ
A voice echoed from the central throne.
Deep. Absolute. Immutable.
"The disturbance did not originate from dragon blood."
Every Dragon King turned.
The Dragon God did not move.
He did not need to.
His presence alone bent causality.
Where others ruled elements, he ruled authority.
"Confirm the source," he commanded.
At once, divine senses expanded outward, sweeping across the Divine Realm like invisible tides.
They searched for:
Violent ascensions
Forced consolidations
Stolen authorities
They found none.
Insteadâ
They found integration.
The Thunder Dragon King's expression changed.
"âŠIt's not resisting the realm," he said slowly.
The Glacial Void Dragon King frowned.
"It isn't invading, either."
The Fire Dragon King's claws tightened.
"Then what is it doing?"
The Dragon God finally opened his eyes.
And when he did, even the Dragon Kings felt pressure.
"It is being acknowledged."
A rare pause followed.
"âŠBy the Divine Realm itself."
No one spoke for several breaths.
Then, quietly:
"A First-Class God," the Thunder King said, "without dragon blood."
The words felt wrong in the air.
The Dragon God's gaze pierced through layers of space, settling somewhere far beyond the Dragon Court.
"Humanity," he said.
The name carried neither praise nor disdain.
Only assessment.
"The God of Humanity has completed consolidation."
The Fire Dragon King's eyes narrowed dangerously.
"That race has existed for barely a fragment of divine history."
"They were created to survive," she continued, voice sharp, "not to rule."
The Void Dragon King spoke more cautiously.
"âŠYet they adapt."
"And now," he added, "they produce gods."
The Thunder Dragon King let out a short, humorless laugh.
"Not just gods."
"First-Class."
No one needed to say it aloud.
But the shadow of the Phoenix Rebellion lingered in every silence.
A non-dragon god.
A rising race.
Rapid consolidation.
History had taught them what happened when such patterns were ignored.
The Fire Dragon King's voice dropped.
"How many human gods now?"
"Three," the Thunder King answered. "Including the two newly ascended."
A pause.
"âŠAnd they are aligned."
That mattered.
The Dragon God finally shifted.
The movement was subtleâbut the Divine Realm reacted.
"Observe," he said.
"Do not provoke."
"Do not suppress."
The Fire Dragon King snapped, "You would allowâ"
The Dragon God's gaze silenced her instantly.
"This God of Humanity has done nothing illegal," he continued.
"He expanded civilization. He stabilized worlds. He did not rebel."
"He strengthened the Divine Realm."
Silence.
"Until that changes," the Dragon God concluded,
"He remains⊠acceptable."
The Dragon Kings returned to their thronesâbut none rested easily.
For the first time in countless ages, something had shifted.
Not violently.
Not rebelliously.
But inevitably.
Somewhere in the Divine Realm, a new pillar had risen.
Not draconic.
Not obedient.
But undeniably legitimate.
Far away, within my divine domain, I felt the subtle probing touch of ancient gazes brush past my defenses.
I smiled faintly.
"So you noticed," I murmured.
The throne beneath me remained steady.
Unshaken.
Unchallenged.
Let them watch.
The era of humanity had only just begun.
