"Immortality? That can be lonely. And in the end, everyone will die. It doesn’t matter what you do to escape it—sooner or later, all shall taste death. It is already written; it’s only a matter of when and how.
But glory… glory is the answer.
Glory will outlive flesh and bones.
Glory is what we should strive for, not immortality."

Robin Burton was a young man who grew up with everything anyone could ever hope for: immense talent in cultivation, a sharp mind, and a wealthy family that would stop at nothing to protect and nurture him. He had everything—except the will to make use of it.

"Why should I walk the same path as my ancestors? Why must I seek strength just to defeat one rival or compete with another? That is not what I was born for!"

“…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority. I wanted to explore the universe, and to explore myself first… yet time and again, I was dragged into devastating wars. I wanted to benefit people with my knowledge and immortalize my name, yet worlds fell and hundreds of billions died because of me. Ironic, hah?”

Richard furrowed his brows for a few seconds, glancing to his side toward his father, silent in thought, "..." Then he turned back toward the vast sea once more, his gaze lost in the endless horizon. "I have only a surface-level understanding. Just the common knowledge, the general information that everyone knows and repeats."


He continued, "...It's said that the eight Master Laws are what formed this world and shaped its very foundation. Seven of them are known, and one is completely unknown, hidden from all existence itself. They are not paths like the rest of the laws that contain a sub-law and minor laws branching from them. Each Master Law has only a single, indivisible law, whole and absolute, without division or fragmentation."
