Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God

She was right. They were rarely together in Soul Palace. They technically all had a room they shared, but they rarely used it. Often times, Amphorae would be with the Pakals and Ri would be with the Elves. At the same time, Clara would be with the mortals, leaving an empty void in the Palace.

Plus, was a Palace any place a little girl should grow up? It was too strict and conforming, the Sacharro's needed a better, more warm land.

"We need to be a bit more forgiving to branches of the Sapientia Clan. Many of them don't have any real connection to the main Clan, especially in Celestial Quadrant which lost connection to the rest of the tower quadrants. You can't continue to send them all away."

Dyon had sent the Sapientia away, not allowing them to enter Soul Universe with the rest. In fact, there were branch Sapientia Clans within the Five Clan Beast Alliance as well, it was just that Dyon didn't have time to properly deal with them just yet.

That said…

"Oh that…?" Dyon smiled a knowing smile.

Madeleine pushed off Dyon's chest to give him a skeptical look.

Dyon's grin widened. "Let's just say the Sapientia and Chenglei's Daiyu Clan will be pretty useful soon enough."

"Didn't you send them all away?" Madeleine blinked in confusion.

"Well, Chenglei technically left on his own, taking the other Black Jade Dragons with him. And, though I did send the Sapientia away, it isn't as though they will be useless to us…"

Madeleine pouted. "So mysterious."

Dyon sighed. "I gave this mission to your former master. If I'm being honest with myself, I took advantage of her. I promised her that if she performed well, I would allow her to live with Ri's uncle in peace and not ostracize her any longer."

[Author's Note: Remember that at the beginning, Ri was thought to be her uncle's daughter. This was believed easily because everyone in the Elvin Kingdom knew that her Uncle Acacia used to have a human lover, so it worked since Ri appeared to be half elf. It was revealed later that that lover was Madeleine's former master. Currently, their relationship is strained because she tried to kill Ri. Hard to forgive someone who almost killed your niece].

Madeleine blinked in surprised. She really didn't know Dyon had planned so far ahead.

Dyon only hadn't told Madeleine about this because he likely felt subconsciously that she was still hopeful toward her Clan and her people. It was just that he selfishly ignored those thoughts. In addition, with plans like this, the less people who knew, the better… Or rather, that was what he told himself to push down the guilt.

"But… Can she really help you that much? My former master is just a saint. And, I'm not even certain that she was of the first grade."

Much like the others of Celestial Universe, Madeleine's former master was obviously talented. But the energy density was so scarce that it was impossible to expect much.

"In truth, even if she was far more powerful, my ask of her would be incredibly difficult anyway because of Connery Sapientia…"

"Connery…" It was a name Madeleine hadn't heard in a long time. He was the leader of the Sapientia in Celestial Universe. According to what she knew, he was of common birth and worked his way up the ranks of the Sapientia to eventually rule them all.

"When we came back to Celestial Universe and began to migrate everyone, the one person we never found was Connery. A person can't simply disappear like this, especially if the search range is an entire universe. I know there has to be something amiss. In all likelihood, the Sapientia are paying more attention to this quadrant than we think.

"Jade's information is useless in this regard because nothing survived here after the Ancient Battlefield descended, this quadrant is too weak. Because of that, whatever plans the Sapientia had set up here were likely abandoned in the end. But, just because they did so back then, doesn't mean they'll do it again."

Madeleine's eyes sparkled. Sometimes she forgot just how amazing her husband was.

It had to be remembered that back when Dyon laid out this plan, he hadn't been certain that the Sapientia were an enemy because he had yet to learn about Jade. This meant that he would have been prepared even without Jade's help. Such forethought bordered on impossible…

"Dyon…"

"Hm?" Dyon, who had fallen into his own thoughts suddenly snapped awake. Seeing the fiery look in Madeleine's eye, he felt a fire light up inside him.

"Let's get started on the family you promised me." Her voice was like delicate droplets of rain, a faint flush overtaking her soft cheeks.

Dyon didn't need to hear anything more. That night, the snowy caps of the Raven Clans tallest mountain completely melted.

**

The atmosphere was slightly awkward. Several dozen mortals stood before Dyon, their heads hanging low. They didn't need to be geniuses to know that Dyon was disappointed in them.

Though they had some resentment because Dyon brought them to this world then all but abandoned them, they couldn't bring themselves to shamelessly say this.

Had he ever let them starve? No. Had they ever wanted for anything? No. Had they been treated with love and respect? Yes.

But, any resentment they might have had vanished into the air when Dyon spoke.

"I've failed you all."

They all stood in the plain grey landscape beneath Soul Palace. The large space had remained relatively unused. In fact, Dyon planned on turning this location into the Sacharro Clan's land as Madeleine asked. With some effort, bringing beautiful soil, plants and trees here wouldn't be difficult. Also, it wasn't impossible for Dyon to add a reflection of the sky to cover the bland grey walls as well.

But for now, this wasn't what was on his mind. He needed a solution for the mental hurdles facing his people.
