The dean scoffed, took the letter of recommendation, and decided to see what connection he had with this "Grand Duke William."
He remembered that the Grand Duke's son was over 30, his grandson was only a few years old, and his other daughters didn't meet any of the age requirements. You must be some kind of relative, like his nephew.
[Ha, it couldn't possibly be a newly adopted son, could it?]
"Your Excellency Ge Fei, Dean of Zifeng Academy, may you tread upon the morning stars and pluck the bright moon from the sky."
The letter of recommendation began with standard words of blessing: "Gofie is now a sixth-level Morning Star Mage, while seventh-level mages are revered as Moonlight Mages."
The first few sentences were unremarkable, and Ge Fei quickly skimmed them before moving on to the main text.
His eyes widened.
"In my short and tragic sixty years of life, I have never encountered such an outstanding, righteous, elegant, kind, handsome, and exceptionally intelligent young man!"
"This guy has absolutely no shame."
“He has long since changed, but he wrote down his former self—that is, my image.”
"I knew he might be my mentor in life, someone who would guide me forward, so I couldn't wait to acknowledge him as my father and enjoy the happiness of having such a great father."
"It's a great pity that my great Father Yun has taken an interest in your esteemed academy. Although he will be leaving me, this is what my Father desired, and I have no regrets. I sincerely congratulate your academy on sharing this honor with me."
Dean Ge Fei: "..."
He scratched his head, glanced at the Grand Duke's medal at the end of the letter of recommendation, then looked up at you.
"What, you little brat... are you William's godson?"
"He's my godson."
"I knew it! I was sure I'd misjudged him. You're the one he's really taking as his eldest son!"
【you:"……"】
[Dean: "...Really?"]
Looking at the dean who seemed to be questioning his existence, you sighed softly, "You're right, the Grand Duke was just playing a little joke on you."
"Can I enroll now?"
[Griffith nodded. He knew it! How could the Grand Duke of the North possibly be so mentally unstable? Even if the Grand Duke were mentally unstable, his children would still be perfectly normal!]
[But he and the Grand Duke probably aren't that close; they're not exactly best friends. This kind of joke is a bit too intimate.]
Just as he was pondering Archduke William's intentions, a clattering sound of something falling to the ground reached Goaf's ears.
He looked up and saw you hurriedly crouching down, picking up a square token from the ground: "Oops, I accidentally dropped it, sorry."
The seal is engraved with a phoenix with outstretched wings, below which is the head of a roaring lion.
This is the Duke's decree bestowed by the Emperor upon the Grand Duke; seeing it is like seeing Grand Duke William.
Just as you picked up the token, a crystal scepter accidentally slipped out of your sleeve.
"Sorry, sorry, I packed a lot of stuff."
You bent down and grasped the crystal scepter, but your outer garment, due to its poor quality, tore open, revealing the crimson armor beneath.
You quickly turned to cover your wound, but the golden lion sword made of demonic gold at your waist let the sunlight shine into Griffith's face.
"And who is this 'sunshine'? Why wasn't it mentioned before?"
[Ge Fei: "...That's enough!"]
He suspected that the Grand Duke might have truly fallen seriously ill.
However, it has nothing to do with him. Your entry into the school was completely legal, and your identification is fine. As long as you don't cause any trouble, he can treat you as a regular student.
After entering the academy, you approached the Fire Brothers while also gathering information about this world in your spare time.
[There was once a myth in this world, the myth of the Aetherial Court.]
[Legend has it that a ruler named Aotian rules over countless worlds and is the supreme god-king.]
He chased down the three villains, and every drop of sweat he shed transformed into a vast ocean.
He subjugated all races, and all three thousand worlds came under his rule.
His daughter is the most beautiful goddess, and his son-in-law is a peerless war god second only to him...
However, Aotian's desire to ascend to a certain supreme path resulted in a catastrophe, with the entire Divine Court being consumed by a single breath of fire.
[You know this myth isn't fictional because you discovered the remains of some gods on this planet, which is only a little over 10,000 kilometers in diameter, and you found the structure of what was once a divine court in the environment outside this planet.]
[And you've also learned about the history of this universe through the Lord of the Universe within the "protective circle."]
[Besides the ancient evil gods, this universe undergoes a rebirth every trillion years.]
Other universes will contract and explode after a trillion-year lifespan, evolving into new universes.
The original location differs slightly from the actual site.
[It will give birth to a pseudo-cosmic ruler. At the beginning of a trillion-year cycle, a gigantic infant will be conceived at the end of the universe. That infant will grow as time goes by, and it will walk in this universe, being the "spirit" of the entire universe.]
When the False Universe Lord grows into a young adult, the path he walks will leave behind a blazing celestial river, known as the Holy Path. Those who walk the Holy Path become saints, able to follow the Supreme Being (the False Universe Lord) to the end of all time.
Unlike the Old Gods, who are hidden in the dark side of the universe and are immortal beings who maintain the order of reincarnation, the Old Gods are a kind of embodied being of rules.
