Endless Horde: Through the Eyes of a Godking

Chapter 360: Settlement and Miracle



He, along with his fellow High Marshals as well as the other people who participated in slaying the Sin Demons, were currently staying inside one of the federal army outposts. They're having a victory feast as they discussed the immediate projects they have for this continent.

Just now, they were informed that the Sea Demon Kings were disposed of permanently by the combined efforts of Isabella, Chrissy, and Erica. This was good news because now that they're done with this continent, the sea was their next target, and without those obscenely strong and huge sea demons, cleansing the sea of demonic filth becomes way easier.

"Yes, it becomes easier, but I think that it will still be time-consuming," Filius commented wryly. "After all, Prime Earth is primarily a planet dominated by water. It's going to take us a long time to completely cleanse the seas."

"If you guys give me more materials and time, I can certainly make something that will expedite the process," Charles chimed in after swallowing his food. "I've been researching, you know. I'm sure I can come up with something."

"And risk you practically turning into a zombie again? Not a chance, buddy boy!" Fiona knocked on his head. "You need rest more than we do. Your body's going to give up on you if you continue to push it past its limits. It already punished you by stunting your growth. Don't take it too far now; we can't have you dying on us because of overwork and exhaustion."

Charles can't really refute that. He knew his body better than everyone else, so he also knew that she's correct. It's just that he wants to keep being useful and contribute to a good cause because it's also his dream to completely liberate his home from demons.

"You kids..." Old Man Jin sighed as he calmly drank his soup. "Stop fussing over these details for now. We're here to rest because we deserve it after a long day of work. How about we focus on that instead of talking about distant problems?"

Garrick, who's sitting beside him, just nodded in agreement whilst wolfing down his meal. By now, he has probably eaten more than 50 servings of food, yet he's still going. This was one of the downsides of having an absurdly powerful body; his metabolism was too active, and he needed more nourishment (food) to keep up.

"The Old Man's right," Anthony chimed in. "I, for one, am spent. I'd really like to have a long sleep after this, but our jobs prevent me from doing so. The best I can have is a nap, so I don't really want to think about seas for now, especially since we're about to be really busy rehabilitating this land."

"You guys shouldn't worry about the seas too much."

Everybody looked over and saw Chrissy and Erica entering the camp. Normally, they would've been alarmed by their presence since they managed to infiltrate this place without triggering the alarms. However, it's them, so it's fine.

"And why is that?" Fiona asked in a curious manner.

"Cedric's on it," Erica replied in a rather casual tone. "So, all you have to focus on is rehabilitating this continent. He won't interfere with any of your plans, and neither do we. You can turn this entire continent into an amusement park if you wish, and he won't stop you from doing so. You guys deserve it after all."

Everybody could understand the implications of her words. Cedric was giving them this continent to use however they please. It's what they deserve after working hard to liberate it from demonic influence without needing his aid.

Sure, they asked for his opinion and stuff, but for the most part, everything else was done by them alone. All Cedric had to do was watch from the sidelines just to make sure that no accidents happened.

Yes, there's also his ladies lending their aid, but that's out of their initiative. Cedric didn't prevent them from interfering or ask them to. It was on their own volition, so it doesn't count.

In a sense, Cedric was giving them ownership over the Lost Continent (which will certainly be renamed at some point). But this can't really be said directly or out loud because it will definitely cause some complications. It could only be implied.

"Well, isn't that just wonderful then?" Raven cackled in relief and comfort. "It turns out that we don't have to worry about the seas anymore. That's great. Less work for us."

As for what were Cedric's motives for doing this or his plans for personally cleansing the seas? It's better for them to not ask anything. If Cedric wants them to know, he will inform them. Otherwise, it might as well be none of their business.

Besides, it's not like they could interfere with his decision anyway. As far as they're aware, Cedric was no less than a god walking amongst them. He might look friendly and approachable, but his authority was unquestionable and undefiable.

People like then should just stay in their lane and be happy with what they have. Besides, it's Cedric. He's the last person who will harm this world.

Cedric isn't really one to procrastinate. Once he has decided to do something, he'd immediately set out to do it if possible, or at the very least, prepare for it.

Cleansing the seas of Prime Earth as a whole certainly sounds and seems like a daunting task, especially for a single person. And that's why it is. Even the whole body of the Prime Earth Federation will find this task extremely challenging to do, and it will certainly take them a very long time of consistent effort to produce some visible results.

But that's them. This is Cedric we're talking about. It might seem like an impossible task for them, but not for him.

Cedric didn't even need to prepare for this, honestly. He could do this in his pajamas or without even leaving his home, but that would be unprofessional, so he at least wore something casual.

Currently, he's walking on the surface of the sea. He's started on the eastern shore of Azure Terra, planning to walk straight to the other side of the continent by the time he's done.

He walked on the raging tides like it was flat land. The tall waves that could easily sink hundreds of ships turned tame when it got close to him. He looked at ease and relaxed as he casually took a stroll on the seas, his face not displaying anything that would give out what he's thinking.

Each step he took left a pulse of white light and golden specks that, when it came into contact with the waters, purified them from the outside in. It was an irrisistable shift; no amount of corruption will ever be enough to stop that seemingly gentle force.

Because of this, there is a striking contrast between what's in front of him and what's behind. Cedric bravely faced the raging seas, leaving behind calm and pristine waters that will soon give birth to new underwater life.

Of course, there were several sea demons who tried to swallow him whole. There had been no less than hundred attempts at this within the first fifteen minutes since he started walking on the sea. Of course, none succeeded. Not even a single one got close to him. Before they could, they were reverted to their original form, the ones they had before they were twisted by the demonic corruption.

By then, their animosity towards him will dissipate like snow under the summer's heat. They'd only feel an instinctual gratitude and awe towards Cedric. Some even submitted in their own way to him because of how gratified they were for his actions.

Cedric remained indifferent to all of this. He just tossed them behind him to the clean waters once he's done purifying them. And the sea creatures that had been given a new lease on life could only accept it graciously.

In some areas, Cedric will deliberately pause because he discovers something interesting. And with his current standards, anything he finds interesting is surely worth noticing. Whenever this happens, Cedric will either do something or just leave it be. Of course, he does things with consideration of humanity's future.

Anybody who's lucky enough to witness this will certainly remember this event as a miraculous thing. This was no less than God personally performing descending and forming a miracle.

And it wouldn't be wrong to say that. After all, Cedric truly was a god in this world, all things considered. The seemingly impossible task for common folk was nothing but a mild effort for him.

The truth is, he's not even actively thinking about purifying the seas as he walks on their surface. This was just a natural reaction of life when it came into contact with him, so it was truly effortless on his part.

By the end of the day, he returned home. And by tomorrow, everybody will be stunned to discover that the seas have been purified and are now safe for humans to traverse.

Such is the power of one Cedric Stormrider.
