Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The mysterious pattern contained the secrets of the whole world. It was the realm of the gods and the forbidden place of mortals. Every symbol was full of mystery, and the huge tree structure was like a tree that held up the world.

The 17 wheels above, just like the cornerstone of the world, firmly held the tree structure steady. Upon the wheels, there were symbols that represented the thrones of the gods.

Why are there 17? What do they represent?” In the darkness, Jonathan felt that the pattern was constantly enlarging in front of his eyes.

Every symbol was being constantly distorted, and it appeared as if they were going to devour him! He was constantly questioning everything and was exceedingly puzzled.

He felt that he had just discovered the biggest secret in the world, a secret that could drive anyone crazy, no matter how powerful, no matter what race, and no matter whether he was a king or a civilian! But, Jonathan still needed a key clue to find out the truth of the secret...

“So... 17... There’s the Church of Light, the Faith of the Sun, the heavenly palace, and the goddess of harvest! So... What are the remaining 13?” he wondered aloud.

At this time, all of the symbols suddenly distorted into huge and terrible Divine Shadows. These 17 huge shadows covered the entire sky.

They stood like mountains and looked down at him. Jonathan felt like the gods were about to destroy him because he had peeped at their secret!

“Ah!” At that moment, Jonathan woke up from his nightmare with a scream, while sweating and gasping.

Jonathan felt that he was possessed. He had been thinking about the unknown mysterious pattern constantly since the return of the fleet from the mainland of Yala.

In fact, Jonathan found that the secret that was buried in his heart was eroding him from the inside out. He felt that he had discovered something, but he did not know what exactly it was!

“Darling, did you have a nightmare again?” Jonathan’s wife asked, while she stroked his forehead gently.

She was speaking Tuten, which was the language of the Sean City-State Alliance. Six months ago, Jonathan had finally ended his long journey and had returned to Alan. His wife had followed him, abandoning her tribe in order to accompany him to the world of mankind.

Jonathan nodded, then shook his head as he looked at his wife Rosea’s worried face. “It wasn’t a nightmare. I’m just a little confused!”

As a top alchemist, Jonathan did not dream often. Thus, all of this was because of the mysterious pattern. He felt that if he did not solve the mystery, he would never again be at ease!

Even Jonathan knew that the answer could be a taboo that mortals could never touch, or it was very likely to bring disaster upon his family, including his beloved wife. Hence, Jonathan thought that he should let go of this altogether.

After all, he already had everything that he needed, including money, status, and love. But, the more Jonathan thought about this, the more he simply knew that he couldn’t suppress his doubts. After all, he was born a curious man!

When they returned, Jonathan’s crew members were welcomed by countless people, and Jonathan, as he ushered his elf wife Rosea down to the dock, received a thundering round of applause.

All of the people present looked at Rosea. They had never seen such a beautiful girl!

Jonathan was a member of the Brown family, and was also a well-known and powerful alchemist. Although he was not a student of Marina Bossay’s, he was thought of highly by her because of Lars Brown. As such, he was absolutely a powerful and wealthy figure in the Sean City-State Alliance.

Jonathan, who had now opened up the sea route to another continent, won the praise of everyone, just as Marina had in the past. Jonathan’s experience had proven to them that Marina’s legendary journey could indeed be replicated.

Moreover, the cargo that he had brought back in his fleet made the Sean City-State Alliance crazy with delight! There were gemstones that had been brought back from the elf world, all kinds of strange medicinal materials, spices, delicate silk clothes, and all kinds of alchemy tools, which were extremely popular among the nobles. He had even brought back all kinds of wizard slaves and Pipi elves, who were, of course, the alchemists’ favorites.

Through the selling and trade of this precious cargo, Jonathan made a fortune. Meanwhile, his Brown Shipbuilding Workshop received a lot of orders. The Browns soon became one of the richest families in Tephis, perhaps even in the whole Sean City-State Alliance!

Jonathan also became as famous as his grandfather, and he was even called “Little Brown!” This was because Jonathan had inherited his grandfather’s personality, which was marked by his absolute unwillingness to be mediocre.

At the moment ,Jonathan got up and went to his study, where he lit a steam lamp that immediately illuminated the whole room. Like most alchemists’ studies, Jonathan’s study was full of books.

There was also a second-generation table, which was quite impressive, as even today, a second-generation alchemy table was only a privilege that the top alchemists could afford to have.

The yellow light shone in the room, creating shadows on the walls. Jonathan carefully pulled down the rope on one side of the wall, while the cloth on the wall moved up, revealing a huge painting.

There was a large and complex pattern on the painting. The pattern was the world tree model! Its complex structure, mysterious symbols, and wheels that symbolized the various gods fascinated Jonathan.

Jonathan picked up the steam lamp and shined its light closer to the model. His eyes were filled with delight as his fingers touched every symbol on the world tree model, bit by bit.

He then murmured, “I will unveil your mystery, making me the first to unveil the mystery of the gods!”
