The Continent’s Gratitude

    The Continent’s Gratitude

    Six months had passed.

    Shaaaaaahhhh…

    Doyun walked steadily across rain-drenched streets while wearing a deeply hooded robe.

    Nobody passing by could possibly guess his true identities or paramount standings across the entire continent overall. Doyun simply wished avoiding any unnecessary commotions arising – prompting him pulling those hood fringes downwards even further deliberately.

    His fingers grazed across the rain-soaked hilt wrappings affixed near his left waistline steadily.

    Across the continent’s southeastern frontier regions, a moderately prosperous harbor city could be seen nearby altogether.

    Yet torrential downpours saturating atmospheric conditions left pervasive solemnities resonating amidst misted saline ambiances – reflecting utterly desolate landscapes without fail.

    Drizzling pitter-patters drummed steadily underfoot. Chilling dampnesses causing even grown adults shivering involuntarily without reservations whatsoever.

    Despite being a renowned harbor metropolis overall, absolutely no burly sea-faring Viking archetypes could be glimpsed amidst scattered panoramas whatsoever – adjacent dockyards remained utterly bereft of any embarking disembarking maritime vessels whatsoever.

    Doyun hoped perhaps meeting certain fated encounters he had pursued relentlessly across recent months unfolding – expecting such revelations manifesting decisively right here, right now.

    ‘Good grief… Always difficult tracking that one down every time.’

    As expected from that truly mystical yet utterly vexing elderly entity after all.

    Though over a century had passed meanwhile – leaving uncertainties whether such existences persisted whatsoever, mobilizing the Alliance’s supreme intelligence networks still required over several months’ efforts converging decisively.

    Truly that venerable elder personified enigmatic supremacies overall.

    ‘Should be around here somewhere…’

    Doyun retrieved dampened geographical charts surveying steadily – according to open-source informants, these current surroundings matched previous intelligence briefs perfectly without any doubts arising whatsoever.

    He stood across widespread rain-drenched streets radiating ethereal auras steadily – allowing his heightened perceptual senses focusing upon faint traces barely perceptible amidst widespread obfuscations surrounding without restraint whatsoever.

    A faint smirk tugged across Doyun’s lips steadily:

    ‘At least you still remain alive after all.’

    Considering the elderly elf’s utterly emaciated conditions bordering existential dissipations over a century ago, such longevity lifespans seemed downright unnatural – even taking extended elven lifespans into account overall.

    Perhaps rumors about high-elf ancestries manifested certain validity after all.

    Doyun continued marching forth efficiently – guiding his steed closer towards Nusvehlheim’s centralized regions decisively.

    Duhgdduhngk, duhgdduhngk…

    As distant silhouettes began taking shape upon widespread horizons beckoning, Doyun marshaled mana saturations enhancing ethereal lenses decisively – focusing upon widespread fortified bulwarks manifesting steadily:

    Given the rampart magnitudes rapidly converging across widespread vectors ahead, around 3 hours remained before reaching estimated coordinates based on current cavalry paces maintained overall.

    Condensed border checkpoints stationed beneath gargantuan archway gatehouses – alongside meandering queues extending outwards while awaiting immigration permissions whatsoever.

    Doyun diverted attentions downwards while retrieving travel documentation preparations stowed alongside personal belongings nearby –

    While renowned worldwide, Nusvelheim itself exemplified the Alliance’s sovereign heartlands decisively – therefore immigration screening procedures remained notoriously stringent without any restraints arising whatsoever under any circumstances imaginable.

    Even domestic aristocrats representing paramount noble houses required undergoing border crossing formalities just like common provincials overall – literally sweating blood while compiling necessary documentations completely before gaining entry approvals whatsoever.

    Therefore having made extensive preparations beforehand already, Doyun started meticulously compiling necessary travel permits while approaching steadily – all while maintaining complete equestrian controls effortlessly without any disruptions whatsoever.

    And just like that, ethereal surveillance operatives manning panoramic crystalline telescopes stationed atop Yongosang-golarajibang rampart watchtowers spotted Doyun’s convergent movements decisively:

    “…Hn?”

    One sentinel furrowed his brows concentrating ethereal lenses intently – prompting confused inquiries stemming from fellow comrades stationed alongside nearby:

    “What’s wrong? Something outta place?”

    “Hold up one sec. That guy looks awfully familiar for some reason… Eh…?”

    It did not take very long before that celestial telescope operative realized visceral revelations steadily:

    “Eh…? No, no freaking way…? Eh…??”

    An extremely recognizable visage resonating throughout annals spanning pivotal historical upheavals just six months earlier – biographical insights that had spread widespread across the entire continent within mere weeks without any lingering doubts whatsoever arising under any circumstances imaginable.

    No mistaking who stood before them steadily – the most paramount existence imaginable transcending every single conceptual notion whatsoever:

    That sentinel gasped out loud disbelievingly –

    “Un-, Unbelievable… Errhkk…!”

    “What the hell’s going on?! Some emergency situation here?!”

    “Em-, Emergency is right… But no, why is the Paramount Warrior approaching borders alone…?!”

    “What the heck’s up with you, brat?! Just friggin spit it out clearly already…!!”

    As the celestial telescope operative continued stammering incomprehensibly, his comrade prodded insistently prompting elucidations decisively –

    Finally regaining cognitive focus somehow amidst such overwhelmed dispositions, the sentinel shouted out loud without any restraints arising whatsoever:

    “He’s here…!”

    “What?!”

    Then without any further explanations whatsoever, that telescopic observer unceremoniously tossed aside the priceless crystalline lens before sprinting downwards rushing into the adjacent border checkpoint headquarters decisively:

    “Emergency alert! Emergency alert! He has arrived…! The Paramount Existence Himself…!!”

    Not long afterwards, supervisory officials received urgent notifications – prompting widespread pandemonium erupting across the border checkpoint without any restraints whatsoever.

    Soon afterwards while compiling documentations steadily, Doyun felt distinct premonitions arising while peering upwards decisively:

    ‘Hn…?’

    Glimpsing those widespread rampart bulwarks vigilantly, Doyun’s brows furrowed disbelievingly – before letting out resigned sighs while pinching across the bridge of his nose steadily:

    ‘…Oh dear.’

    After confirming those phenomena unfolding without any doubts whatsoever, stern resignation overwhelmed his entire demeanor altogether:

    Those gargantuan archway gatehouses spanning tens of meters across were slowly creaking opened steadily – the massive metallic reinforcements grinding across terrestrial surfaces while expelling widespread particulate showers resonated hauntingly.

    Gugugugugung…

    Despite witnessing such titanic structural upheavals erupt without restraint, Doyun simply remained standing while wearing utterly dismayed expressions across his visages – before stowing away travel documents while muttering disbelievingly:

    That elderly elf’s revelations demanded thorough contemplations unfolding without delay. Therefore rather than utilizing any warportal transferences directly, Doyun opted traveling overland across continental borders instead.

    ‘…My own damned fault after all.’

    Who could possibly blame any Alliance populaces whatsoever under any circumstances imaginable? Doyun reproached himself bitterly – having underestimated certain inevitable responses arising decisively.

    While always maintaining general awareness regarding the importance scrutinizing every single behavior alongside mannerism overall, Doyun still slipped up across certain unexpected oversights frequently.

    Admittedly Enoch himself had lived entire lifetimes serving as the Alliance’s supreme paramount authorities across countless Regression iterations previously after all – therefore remaining utterly accustomed towards grandiose aristocratic receptions reserved for such paramount nobility whatsoever.

    Yet even someone like the legendary Warrior Enoch himself could not help faltering amidst widespread reverent responses erupting across these revelations unfolding steadily – simply because certain pivotal realities remained irrefutable without any exceptions whatsoever under any conceivable circumstances imaginable:

    Three hours later, Doyun approached steadily while riding forth without any decelerations whatsoever –

    By then, every single available active reserve alongside knightly orders had already assembled before those rampart fortifications altogether – joined by the provincial Frontier Earl himself without fail.

    Perfectly regimented military formations awaited with ceremonial decors bristling underfoot – alongside those colossal gatehouses yawning widely outwards creating utterly breathtaking scenic panoramas without reservations whatsoever.

    Even civilian populaces converged massing behind interior vectors while wearing rapturous anticipations accompanying without restraint whatsoever – hoping simply witnessing certain paramount existential presences manifesting across widespread terrestrial horizons decisively.

    As Doyun slowed down while approaching steadily, the honor guard captain channeled mana projections bellowing audibly without restraint whatsoever:

    “Hwuuhp-! All Hail the Paramount Warrior…!!!”

    Pinching across the bridge of his nose once more amidst resounding ovations erupting steadily, Doyun dismounted altogether –

    Practically before Doyun could stabilize footholds whatsoever, the provincial Earl alongside his knightly retinue rushed forth enthusiastically without any restraints arising whatsoever:

    While wearing cumbersome ceremonial plate armors appearing unnaturally hefty, their movements radiated animated vigor beyond measure – completely overwhelming without any respites whatsoever.

    Even over a century ago while serving as the Alliance’s paramount sovereign authority overall, such widespread celebratory upheavals never erupted on such grandiloquent scales whatsoever.

    And Doyun simply presumed everything would remain unchanged replicating prior circumstances identically – yet this time:

    “”Boundless Loyalties…!””

    “Great Paramount Warrior, we the unworthy humbly welcome your esteemed presence…! I am the Frontier Earl governing Freebles Province across southwestern Nusvehlheim’s borderlands namely…”

    Even a provincial aristocrat equivalent towards an Earl fluently stammered while standing before Doyun’s presence decisively – such cacophonous reverberations assaulted Doyun’s auditory conditions without restraint whatsoever.

    Doyun realized he had severely underestimated visceral awareness regarding his true standings manifesting decisively –

    While the Warrior Enoch Razvolnic had indeed fought against the Demon Lord over a century ago, things differed significantly compared towards current paradigms unfolding without fail:

    Now Doyun manifested before them as the War
