I've Become the King of Villains in the Game

Time flies quickly.

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

August, Solar Calendar 4423.

Old Spirit World.

The Proud Sun was hung high, casting down bright sunlight.

A gentle breeze rustled through, and looking far away at the azure sky, one could faintly see the towering Golden Sacred Tree swaying gently on the Heavenly Fields.

On the branches, wider than streets, buildings were vaguely standing.

The residents of the Immortal Realm were well aware that it was the dwelling place of the Gods.

Clang, clang...

The rhythmic thunderous sound came closer from afar.

A jet-black, gleaming train on rails shuttled through the distant valleys, crossed the dense forest, like a black giant serpent, winding through the jungle... accompanied by the loud roar of the whistle, thick smoke billowed from the chimney atop the engine.

As the train slowly pulled into the station, the patrolling Black Cat Guards immediately stopped and performed a prayer salute.

The station was bustling with figures, both black cats and white cats, and ordinary men and women, the latter had unfamiliar mortal faces, showing nervous and apprehensive expressions upon seeing the train arrive.

According to the monks of the Church, this train named "Return Home" was crafted by the Gods' stroke of pen, requiring neither coal nor a driver, yet could travel automatically to any region.

Hiss——

In the smoke, the great gate of the train opened automatically.

A man draped in a gray priest's robe, wearing a gray wide-brimmed hat, and holding a large Bible in his hands stepped down with confident steps.

Following him were two young men dressed in gray monk clothes, one tall and one short. The tall was blond and blue-eyed, handsome with a playful smile; the short wore round-framed glasses, looking shy.

"Finally back, the 'City of Cats' has become more bustling and vibrant in just a few days..."

Alec whistled and said with a smile.

Noah looked at the station and the crowd and nodded in agreement:

"Since Floey Pope took charge of the Old Spirit World, its development has indeed been rapid. Kazt has expanded twice, becoming much larger than the main city of the current Tresor Empire... Also thanks to the white cat monks of the 'Dawn Church,' frequently traveling between this world and saving those hopeless in war, the number of residents in the Immortal Realm has been increasing."

"Noah, I'm correcting you on a mistake; the name here has officially changed to 'Immortal Realm,' and 'Old Spirit World' has long become a historical term..."

Alec raised his chin and said.

"Ah, sorry, just a habit."

Noah looked apologetic.

Martin Gustus did not participate in the conversation between the two youngsters, he just smiled and continued walking.

The three of them moved forward.

Along the way, the cat residents and Immortal Realm inhabitants all greeted them with respect.

"Archbishop Martin, Priest Noah, Priest Alec."

"Praise the Azure King."

"Cat God above."

"Proud Sun Eternal."

Warm and respectful voices echoed one after another. Martin removed his wide-brimmed hat, revealing a shiny bald head, smiling and nodding kindly to the residents.

He turned back, glanced at the Proud Sun in the sky, his eyes full of smiles.

Although the Proud Sun had fallen, his replica remained in the Immortal Realm, reigniting the light of dawn in Martin's once desperate heart.

At the same time, it was here that he found his true home.

The circus had long since disbanded, and under Floey Pope's arrangements, a new "Dawn Church" was established. This church was composed of multiple faiths, with the Azure King as the main deity, but the Proud Sun, Lady of Pain, Cat God, Destiny Giant Serpent, and even the Nameless could also be worshipped.

In the City of Cats, the faith primarily focused on the Azure King, Cat God, and Proud Sun.

As for the Nameless City, now renamed the "City of Light," the primary objects of worship varied again.

Martin loved this land very much.

He willingly served as an archbishop in the church, often taking the "Return Home" train to travel through the Immortal Realm, where in the City of Cats, the City of Light, and various regions' emerging small tribes, he could be seen spreading his teachings.

Soon.

The three arrived in the City of Cats.

On the bustling streets, cat residents, Immortal Realm inhabitants, and even some transcendent beings with spiritual wisdom came and went. Upon seeing the three, they all stopped to greet them.

Shops selling various local products were everywhere, and even some industrial products from the current world could be found.

The currency used here was called "Spett."

It was minted from Dragon Sharpstone from beneath the Gloomy Plains and Splendor Gemstone from the Crystal Mountain Range, with denominations from small to large in four types: Diamonds, Clubs, Hearts, and Spades, corresponding to the portraits of the Four Knights of Destiny engraved on the coins.

Their exchange ratio was ten to one.

It is said that the design and minting of this currency initially started independently by Floey Pope and was later handed over to the Black Cat Workshop.

Recently, a saying has been circulating in the City of Cats that as long as one holds a Spett Coin, regardless of the denomination, and sincerely chants the prayer words of the Azure King three times, there's a high probability of gaining good luck.

The residents of the Immortal Realm deeply believe in this.

But when the clergy of Noah and the church heard this, they merely exchanged smiles and did not comment.

Because they knew that although Lord Jack had vanished, He was surely still watching over the Immortal Realm silently; perhaps His strength was invisibly at work.

Deep into the City of Cats.

Arriving in the central area, the White Tower still stood.

This was the place where Bishop Carmen studied magic, and it was also a place where the white cat monks furthered their training. Frequented by residents stopping by the White Tower, praying devoutly and quietly.
