Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined - Chapter 351

Chapter 351: Chapter351-Divine Dawn Day and the Time of War
Aurek put down his pen and looked up at Chuck.

“How are the preparations for the ceremonies going?”

“The Sacred Throne Platform has been constructed in front of the Valoria Palace, with the ceremonial regalia, rituals, and announcements all ready.”

“According to the Astronomical Institute’s observations, on the first of next month, the Emperor Star will reach its peak position in the star chart, with all the other stars aligned in a rare celestial omen.”

“Then, it will be on that day,” Aurek’s voice echoed in the hall. “Issue the orders.”

“Understood, Your Majesty,” Chuck bowed once more.

“Go ahead.”

After Chuck left the hall, Aurek set the report from the borders aside. There were still two weeks until the first of next month, but the war threat from the Dawonru Empire was rapidly approaching. These next two weeks would determine the fate of the Empire!

Having finished with his administrative duties, Aurek summoned the court’s void warlock to prepare for a visit to the Godfall Canyon. With Philip and Lucio in control of the situation there, he wasn’t worried. He had already recognized their abilities.

He walked through the marble archways and entered the royal garden.

Queen Josephine, Princess Sophia, and Princess Belinda were all in the courtyard. Even Lady Gloria and Lady Lucy were present. This was Josephine’s arrangement. Both of them had once served as palace guards, and after receiving Aurek’s permission, the palace’s resource vaults had been opened to them.

“Your Majesty.”

As Aurek entered, the ladies all curtsied, lifting their skirts.

Aurek’s eyes swept over them, sensing that their auras had grown significantly stronger. The resources obtained from Twilight City had not only been used to nurture special units like Harry and Tina, but also to supply the palace’s core members.

“Divine Dawn Day will be set for the first of next month. You are fully responsible for the celebrations and arrangements within the palace,” Aurek said to Josephine.

The first of next month?

Sophia and Princess Belinda’s eyes sparkled at the words.

Divine Dawn Day!

It would be the grand moment to announce to the gods and all peoples that the Crossbridge Empire had officially unified the Eura continent.

On that day, they would stand on the highest terrace of Valoria Palace, personally participating in this historic moment.

Thinking of this, excitement surged in their hearts.

Power was like the finest wine—once tasted, no one wanted to put down the cup. Even Belinda, who had once had little ambition for power, now fully understood its allure.

The stronger the Crossbridge Empire became, the more powerful and glorious it grew, and with it, the authority and status that would shine ever brighter.

It was enough to dominate fate and look down on all beings.

Now that they had climbed to this pinnacle, who would want to fall from it?

As the Queen, Josephine knew the weight of this responsibility even more!

Even the surrounding attendants, and even Tracy, the nun who had once been free of worldly desires, were unwittingly drawn into this vortex of power.

“I’ll make all the arrangements, Your Majesty.”

Josephine gracefully curtsied.

As the Queen of the Empire, organizing the court ceremonies was her duty.

“Your Majesty,” Gloria stepped forward and curtsied again.

“I’ve heard that the Court Council is discussing the establishment of an Imperial War Academy?”

“Indeed, the proposal has been approved, and the site selection and construction will begin shortly,” Aurek answered calmly.

“Then… Your Majesty, have you considered the candidates for the leadership?” Gloria asked cautiously. “If you permit, I would like to take on this responsibility.”

“You?” Aurek raised his eyes, his gaze sharp. “Tell me your reasons.”

“The Empire’s territory is vast, and the members of the Court Council are busy with politics and military matters, unable to focus on academic affairs.”

“I have received the royal family’s favor and should therefore help relieve the burden of the Empire,” Gloria said earnestly.

Aurek understood her intentions.

The most effective way to gain a stable position within the Empire was to take on an important responsibility.

He was about to speak when—

Boom!

Before he could finish, a sudden surge of powerful energy rippled from the outskirts of the palace.

Aurek’s mind power instantly spread out like a tidal wave, and several familiar auras appeared within his perception.

“Why would she return at this time?” Aurek muttered to himself, drawing puzzled looks from Josephine and the others.

Moments later, Natasha, Cyriel, and the True God deity walked straight through the palace and into the inner courtyard. Blood Lion Reo and Zach remained outside, waiting.

Elizabeth, sensing the unusual energy fluctuations, also arrived at the royal garden.

Soon, Natasha’s figure appeared under the ornate archway of the garden.

“Sister?!” Sophia stood up in surprise.

Gloria, Lucy, and the others also looked astonished.

They all knew that Natasha had been assigned to a secret mission in the Abyss Demon Realm.

“What happened?” Aurek looked at her and asked in a deep voice.

“I’ve brought an unexpected gift for His Majesty,” Natasha entered the courtyard, suppressing the excitement within her.

She used her telepathy to communicate with Aurek while carefully glancing at the attendants like Tracy.

Aurek understood immediately and raised his hand to dismiss the attendants.

Tracy and the others silently withdrew from the garden.

Everyone was confused as they saw Natasha gesture to the void warlock outside the garden. A golden-rippling void gate slowly unfolded in the center of the courtyard.

A tremendous, almost ancient energy surged from within the gate, overwhelming the air and causing Josephine and the others to struggle to breathe.

Aurek released his Emperor’s Dominion naturally, and the golden light dissipated the oppressive force.

He stepped into the glowing portal first.

The others followed closely, stepping into a shattered dimension.

Before them stood a colossal Gold Giant Gate, towering tens of thousands of meters high, standing silently in the center of a ruined world.

Ancient, mysterious, and awe-inspiring divine scripts were carved into the door, thick and heavy, making it almost suffocating to behold…

“This is… a door made of Starborne Gold?!” Elizabeth’s eyes froze the moment she stepped into the space. Her voice trembled with disbelief.

Her contracted deities knew that Starborne Gold had caused wars in the God Realm, but they didn’t know its true value.

But Elizabeth knew!

Just gazing at this giant door, even Elizabeth, who had seen countless treasures, lost her usual composure.

Aurek stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the miracle before him.

Natasha took out the golden seal from her chest and handed it to him.

“What you’ve been looking for, Your Majesty, is behind this door.”

Aurek took the seal, feeling the warm resonance in his fingertips.

The golden seal flew into the lock at the center of the massive door. The divine scripts on the door began to glow, and radiant divine light surged out like a tidal wave, as if opening a barrier between eras.

As the door slowly opened, Aurek stepped through.

The people behind him, as if drawn by an invisible force, followed him into the light.

The next moment…

Josephine, Sophia, Elizabeth, and Princess Belinda were all struck speechless, their eyes wide open in disbelief.

They stood motionless, almost forgetting to breathe.

It was like a mortal stepping into the Divine Empire for the first time, staring at everything before them in awe.

What greeted their eyes was a world of dazzling golden light, with rainbows cascading from the heavens like silken threads woven by a goddess, and violet holy mist intertwined into millions of flowing tassels.

Everything in sight was made of eternal crystal, morning light glass, and star gemstones, bright and glorious, with jade-like radiance shooting through the heavens.
