Chapter 821: Modified: Chapter 514 Writing the Prologue (Request for Monthly Ticket!)_2
Kingsberg smiled and said gently.
"Congratulations, Jack, on your extraordinary transformation into a mythological creature, adorned with the Sage’s Crown... From now on, we shall work together for countless years, hoping that our names will be remembered for millennia or even tens of thousands of years."
Mulenga congratulated from the side.
The other three Governing Officers also began to chime in, nodding and smiling in polite response. At this moment, Peggy laughed freely, her eyes slightly squinting as she said enthusiastically:
"Jack, how about coming to my place tonight? I’ll entertain you well... Finally, you have achieved the Holy Rank, and only the robust physique of a mythological creature can make both of us completely satisfied, right?"
Excitement was evident in her eyes.
The three gentlemen beside Kingsberg were not surprised, among them, Governing Officer Bindu raised his eyebrows teasingly and asked:
"Peggy, why don’t you consider me?"
"Get lost and play by yourself!"
Peggy rolled her eyes, speaking without mercy.
"If you had half of Jack’s charm, having a fling with you wouldn’t be bad, but in comparison, you fall far short."
"Hahaha..."
Kingsberg laughed heartily, and Mulenga shook his head, smiling.
Governing Officer Yasmin remained silent, quietly observing Jack’s features, her gaze roaming from his face to his chest and below, revealing a keen interest.
"I never noticed before, but Jack actually fits my aesthetic and tastes... Peggy, I’m afraid you’ll be too busy tonight, so how about letting me help?"
She said as she brushed her silver-grey long hair aside, her pretty face showing anticipation.
Seeing this, Chen Lun felt something was not right.
It seemed as if something with legs was staring at him from the void.
He coughed and politely declined with a smile:
"Thank you for your kind offer, Miss Peggy, but I have more important matters to attend to tonight, so I regretfully must refuse."
"Alright then..."
Peggy shrugged, her face openly showing disappointment.
Chen Lun ignored Bindu who was pounding his chest in frustration beside him, standing up to bid farewell to the others. Kingsberg gave him a solemn pat on the shoulder and said:
"If you ever need anything, feel free to call on us."
"Of course."
Chen Lun nodded with a smile.

Upon returning to the Royal City, Chen Lun immediately summoned the Circus’s officers and his council members, announcing the imminent relocation from Bixie Crost to Ice Leaf City in Lin State.
"Ah... Mr. Jack, are we moving again?"
Connie asked in surprise.
Chen Lun was first taken aback, then recalled their journey. The team had indeed moved from Amber City in Gem State to Peacock City in Rock State, from there to the Royal City... and now they were leaving again, heading to the Empire Border’s Ice Leaf City in Lin State.
It was truly a "life of wandering."
’But this fits the Circus’s style perfectly, never staying in one place for long, constantly traveling and witnessing the scenery and excitement along the way.’
Chen Lun thought to himself with self-mockery.
He looked up at his people.
"This time we shall stay in Ice Leaf City for quite a long while... Connie, you will be responsible for taking inventory and packing, no need to rush, we have ample time to prepare."
"Understood, Mr. Jack."
Connie responded earnestly.
Chen Lun then instructed Frey and Akebin, along with other council members, to handle the handover with Randa’s subordinates. They didn’t need to make things difficult; they could just follow normal procedures.
"Yes, Lord Jack."
The council members saluted and agreed.
Lastly, Chen Lun entrusted some miscellaneous tasks to Floey, ensuring she managed everything properly. The goal was to complete the relocation by the end of October.
After giving these instructions, Chen Lun left the church area and went to the Imperial Judgement Group’s base, where he found Judge McCollin to submit his resignation.
However, McCollin’s expression was complicated.
"Jack, there has never been an instance of resignation within the Judgement Group. According to the rules, members are bound to serve the Royal Family for life..."
He looked at the slightly frowning man in the black hat and sighed inwardly.
"But you are an exception... Whether joining or leaving, it’s the same... With your current strength and status, the identity of an ordinary Judgement Group member no longer suits or befits you. However, the Nine Great Judges can’t let a senior member of the Seven Gods Church take this position. Hence, Princess Anna has already made arrangements that if you want to leave, we will not hinder you."
Chen Lun felt a huge sense of relief.
He smiled politely and thanked Judge McCollin.
The latter shook his head and said:
"No need to thank me, Jack. Now, you and I are of the same rank and can interact as equals... I witnessed your step-by-step ascent to the Holy Rank and understand your past well. As your former superior, speaking from the heart, your departure is the right choice."
"Hmm?"
Chen Lun’s eyes flashed with doubt.
McCollin’s voice lowered, becoming calm and serious:
"Neither the Royal Family nor the Seven Gods Church will stand by while a Destiny high ranker moves freely in the Royal City..."
Chen Lun immediately understood, remaining silent for a few seconds before nodding to Judge McCollin.
"Thank you for the warning."

That night.
Chen Lun stayed alone in his room, standing by the window, looking up at the Purple Moon.
After a long while, his gaze swept over the Nightfall-shrouded Royal City. The invisible undercurrents seemed to be drifting away from him, and the hidden unease in his heart gradually subsided.
’The stories here will no longer involve me for the time being.’
Chen Lun thought to himself.
Turning, he walked to the table and sat down, taking out the vintage cowhide notebook, unclasping the brass buckle with a click, and laying it open on the table, flipping to the first page. freewēbnoveℓ.com
His hand gently brushed over the clean, blank paper, sensing a wonderful anticipation spreading from within.
Chen Lun knew that this was the [Super A Level Mysterious Object - Miserable World] calling him, hoping he would lay down words and stories, creating an amazing world.
’This precious time is earned by declining the enthusiastic invitation of two Saint sisters; it ought to be used for something more meaningful, right...’
He chuckled lightly, then called out:
"Hide and Seek."
A noble ivory white pen appeared in his slightly raised right hand. The cap, surrounded by a white snake, detached itself, floating beside him, while the gold-adorned silver nib touched the paper, leaving black ink marks.
On the first page of [Miserable World], the elegant script wrote:
"Prologue: Red Apple Dungeon."
"Main Characters: Jack Spett, Floy Wolf, Will, Carter... Hidden Characters: Sturton, Newman."
"Main Setting: Wilderness near Emerald Town, Red Apple Church Dungeon."
"Selectable Factions: Jack, Red Apple Church."
"Prologue Unlock Conditions: Clear the Wonderland Nature Forest realm, complete the trial of ’Nada,’ the keeper at the Seven-colored Pebble Path."
Chen Lun’s gaze deepened, a faint smile on his lips as his hand continued to write.
Under the purple moonlight, the rustling sound brought the black ink to the next paragraph:
"You awaken from pain, finding yourself in a dim, damp dungeon, surrounded by some young men and women with faces of fear, and one particularly calm young man... Beyond the iron bars of the cell, you see two church guards in leather coats, chatting idly..."
