Dragon King of Apocalypse

A deep wave of immortal qi serenely moved through the clouds, spreading out like mist. It passed through the skies, alongside the earth, nurturing everything around.

Up above was the glittering starry sky alongside the planets, some were green and some were that seemed small.

Down below was extremely beautiful, the green grass spread out like a cushion, beautiful trees verdant and lush.

Radiant springs and sacred lakes surged, wondrous planets that were releasing multicolored light and intoxicating fragrance.

It was magnificent and beautiful, golden mist filled with immortal qi swirling about them. This was a realm, unlike any, a realm that wouldn't exist anywhere in the mortal realm.

This was none other than the God Realm or more specifically, the Great God Circle Star realm. A realm that was able to break into the 7th-dimensional after establishing a God Star and growing.

In a majestic palace that had a colorful halo glowing above it, on the inside was a hall that was built in an octagon shape.

Each wall was flashing with the scenes of various mortal worlds, solar systems, and galaxies. They were constantly fluctuating between worlds, which were the worlds the Great God Circle control.

In the center of the hall, there was a round table with sixteen chairs around it. Each chair was unique to the other.

A different person occupied each seat. Each of them was giving off a 6th-dimensional aura that would terrify anyone.

Each of them staring at the projection of a globe in the middle of the table.

It flashed constantly for a bit before fading away, alongside the globe.

"Ugh... Finally, I can be done for the day."

The Immortal Emperor Hailong said with a sigh after leaning back in his chair.

"Why are you acting as if you did much? All you did was be silent while the rest of us was discussing the progression of the mortal worlds."

The Mad God Lei Xiang replied with a scoff causing Hailong to glare at him.

"Oi, you've been getting annoying lately... Do I have to knock you down a peg?"

"Scram, go bother someone else with your antics."

Lei Xiang replied but before Hailong could counter, Zhou Weiqing spoke up.

"Now, now. Do I need to step in to calm you guys down? Let's not get into another fight... That you both will undoubtedly lose."

Zhou Weiqing smiled as he saw both of their glares before they shouted.

"Who will lose!"

"Can't you guys go one meeting without stirring up trouble?" The Zither Emperor Ye Yinzhu release a sigh while massaging his temple with a hand.

"I doubt it. Those two are like fire and water while Weiqing over there is the person who loves to egg them on."

"You wound me so much, brother Tien..."

'He wouldn't...'

Tien Hen's eyes narrowed at the smiling Zhou Weiqing who's smile was beginning to turn mischievous as he continued.

"Aren't you the one who has the statistic of who will win?"

Tien Hen let out a sigh, as he felt the eyes of Hailong and Lei Xiang instantly zoning on him.

"No, I don't have the stats, now leave me alone."

"Bullshit, aren't you the type that calculates everything?"

"There is never a dull moment at these meetings."

Lie Yan giggled as she rested her head on Ji Dong's shoulder.

"I admit, they are a vast improvement over the old ones."

"Hehe, are you talking about how Destruction and Tang San would usually argue for the whole meeting? Needing Life to step in?"

"Yep."

Ji Dong winked at Lie Yang as they both secretly laughed. As this was happening, down from both Good and Evil, the eyes of Yali widened.

"Oh?"

"Something wrong?"

The God Of Destruction, Yun Ming asked while he was stroking Yali back.

It was about eight years ago in this realm that Yali and Yun Ming underwent the God trial for Destruction and Life position.

It was administered by Tang San who had the cores at the time. They were selected not only because of their cultivation but also their talent for these two positions.

Also since Yali having a large amount of faith, energy, and connection to life itself. While Yun Ming was talented and able to make a half-god position before a God Realm was made.

Tang San asked if they wanted the positions to which they agreed. Not only to get stronger for their friends and family but also because they felt the positions calling to them.

While the trial was horribly hard to the point, they felt like giving up multiple times. Somehow they were able to persevere and make it through, gaining these two God Positions.

"Hehe, those silly kids are here."

Just as the Life Goddess Yali said this, the door to the main hallway was pushed open!

In followed three kids who looked like they were ten years old. One was a boy with beautiful skin and adorable dimples. The boy had wavy black hair with streaks of silver and white, alongside bluish-gold eyes.

This was none other than Tang Xuanyu who rushed towards Gu Yuena who was sitting down with a gentle smile on her face.

The other boy was a cute boy with short spiky green hair that swayed as he ran. His eyes were light green with purple mixed in them alongside wisps of green and purple.

This boy was Yun Lin who was rushing towards the laughing Yali who had her arms wide open. And the final one was an adorable girl with long, wavy black hair that went down to her waist.

She had light pink eyes that were mixed with crimson-gold, breathtaking to all who saw it. This little girl was Tang Ning who had a red hue on her rosy cheeks as she felt multiple eyes staring at her.

"My Cute granddaughter!"

Without a word, Tang San had appeared in front of Tang Ning. Surprising her as she flinched but Tang San had already wrapped his arms around her.

"My adorable granddaughter-,"

"Grandpa... Stop, people are looking."

Tang Ning whispered, concealing her face in her grandfather's chest while he chuckled in amusement.

"Don't be embarrassed now, none of them will dare to laugh at my little harmony."

"Grandpa!"

As this was going on, Tang Xuanyu had reached his mother Gu Yuena and dived in her arms.

"Mom~"

"Hehe, didn't I tell you can't come in until we're done?"

"But you guys are done, though!"

"And how would you know that? Were you three troublemakers eavesdropping?"

Gu Yuena laughed at Tang Xuanyu who started to sputter, his face was turning red as he tried looking anywhere else.

But at her, making her laugh even more.

"Didn't I raise you better?"

"Buuut daaad... You guys were taking too long! I want to hurry up and go to big brother Wulin!"

Yun Lin complained, but Yun Ming only rolled his eyes.

"You always want to go to him! When are you going to start training?"

"...Mom! Dad trying to force me-,"

"Oi!"

Yali just laughed at two banters, as she knew Yun Ming was the one to blame.

He was the one who spoiled and pampered their child rotten, taking special care to make sure everything was right with him.

'And he said I spoiled Na'er the most.'

Finally being able to get out of her grandpa's embrace, which he didn't mind as he instantly went towards Xuanyu.

'Poor him.'

Tang Ning thought before her eyes landed on the target, the person she wanted to talk to. With a deep breath, she gathered up her courage before slowly walking towards Rong Nianbing who was smiling.

"Hm? Did you need something Ning?"

"U-Um, uncle Nianbing... Can you teach me how to cook?"

After Tang Ning said that, her face lit up like a Christmas tree, desperately wishing she could hide behind something.

But to her confusion, uncle Nianbing didn't reply, glancing up, she saw the disbelief on his face.

And the tears?

Wait, why was her uncle crying?

In the next instant, she was scooped up and held tightly.

"My precious grandniece! To think you want to learn the art of cooking! I knew you were the one all along, way better than your cousin!"

As Rong Nianbing said this, Tang Ning began blushing while Huo Yuhao was observing everything.

Started to twitch his lips at his master's comment, although he could understand his master's pain.

Who didn't know the pain Rong Nianbing felt when Huo Zhanji said he didn't care for learning how to cook or use a knife?

Rong Nianbing could only walk in defeat, the dream of training his disciple kid shattered into pieces.

"Congratulations master, you found a student as good as me."

Huo Yuhao said before he felt the area get colder, glancing to the side.

He saw Tang San who was glaring at Rong Nianbing while holding on to the squirming Tang Xuanyu.

"Grandpaaa."

"Shh for now Xuanyu, Grandpa a bit busy."

Tang San's eyes were boring into Rong Nianbing, giving him a fierce stare that would have any man running for the hills.

But Rong Nianbing wasn't any man.

How could he cower in front of his new disciple?

While his old one was watching as well?

"Tsk, don't get mad because she picked me."

Rong Nianbing scoffed causing Tang San's eyes to twitch, his glare becoming even more lethal. As a staring match commences between Nianbing and Tang San, Tang Xuanyu's eyes wander to Huo Yuhao.

"Uncle Yuhao can you tell Zhanji to stop hogging my spot!"

Huo Yuhao raised a brow."So sitting on your dad's head is your spot now?"

"Yes! I claimed that when I was born, then he kicked me off!"

"And then you kick him off as well."

Tang Xuanyu pouted." It was only fair!"

Huo Yuhao merely shook his head, finding the rivalry that was going on between Xuanyu and Zhanji to be amusing.

His boy was usually calm and laid back but when it comes to the things he wants or desires. He becomes a vicious tyrant, pushing and moving anyone out of his way.

Huo Yuhao had too many headaches about the fights Zhanji and the other kids got themselves into. It always seemed to end in all of them getting bruises and bumps before Wulin or Yali would heal them.

Yet oddly enough, all of them would stick together whenever they were up to something. From playing pranks on everyone in the realm to causing mayhem and havoc.

No matter what anyone says, specifically his dearest honey Wutong.

Zhanji got his troublemaker side from her, and you couldn't tell him otherwise!

"Oh! That reminds me, dad you remind uncle A'Dai to come over for dinner?"

Yun Lin asked as stopped arguing with his dad if you could call it an argument.

"He did. Of course, Yue and I would love to join you guys." A'Dai replied with a faint smile causing Yun Lin to cheer.

He loved it when A'dai and Xuan Yue came over because they always brought him treats to eat. It didn't take him long to find out that Xuan Yue loved to dote on him, always giving him a batch of cookies.

To the irritation of Yun Ming and pleasant amusement of Yali.

"Uncle Yuhao if you aren't going to help, then I will just resume my fight!"

Tang Xuanyu said as he finally got out of Tang San hold but before he could move, a soft pair of arms grasped him.

"You little trouble maker, don't tell me you are going to give your father trouble?" Na'er asked with a smile as she began to tickle Xuanyu.

"Ahhh, stop auntie!"

Tang Xuanyu kept on laughing and squirming, trapped in his auntie Na'er hold.

He was silently scolding himself for disregarding her, as he knew she was just waiting for the moment to strike.

"As always, it's always lively with you all here."

Zhang Gongwei whispered as he was leaning back in his chair with a lazy smile, content on watching things play out.

#

In another part of the God Star, the distinct sounds of metal rang out.

"Mom! Can I try next?"

An adorable boy with sky-blue eyes and spiky orange-colored hair with black streaks running through it.

"Of course not-,"

"Of course my adorable grandson! Come over to grandpa and he will get you started-,"

"Oi..."

Mu Chen froze when he felt the fierce stare of his daughter, Mu Xi on his back. Even without her bringing down her Peak God-King pressure down on him, he could feel the invisible pressure.

"Come on now Xi... He just wants to be a blacksmith-,"

"He can be one when he reaches eleven, right now let him enjoy his childhood."

Mu Xi said with no room for discussion causing Mu Chen to let out a sigh.

"But mommy, I want to start my training!"

Tang Chang pouted in indignation while Mu Xi stopped hammering down on the metal, putting down her hammer.

Before then moving towards her adorable little boy, who was stubborn as his father. Picking him up and setting him on her lap, she began to gently pinch his cute dimples.

"Mom!"

"Hush, this is what naughty boys get."

"But I am not naughty! Grandpa and grandma said I wasn't."

Mu Xi rolled her eyes before laughing." Why should I let you start blacksmith training now? If you can give me a good reason, I will think about it."

"Really?"

"Yes, really..."

"Well because I am your beloved child of course!"

"Try again."

Mu Xi flicked Tang Chang's head causing him to cry out.

"Because I am cute?"

"I have plenty of other cute kids~"

"But you said I was the cutest!"

Tang Chen shot Mu Xi an accusing glare but she only gave him an amused look while Mu Chen was laughing hysterically in the back.

"Some advice kid, all mothers think all their kids are the cutest. Keyword, all of their kids."

"Tsk...Well, it's because I want to see why."

"Hm, why what?"

"It's hard to put into words but anytime I see your blacksmithing. Every time I see the sparks and clash of metal. I get lost in it for some reason... Ugh, it's hard to explain."

"It's fine, I think you explained it well enough... Isn't that right my cute daughter?"

"Shut up dad... As for you, okay, I will think about it."

Tang Chang's eyes had widened before he began to cheer out loud, jumping off his mother's lap and rushing towards his grandpa.

Both of them high-five each other, while Mu XI only shook her head.

'I am stuck with a bunch of fools... Then again, they are my fools.'

"Please grandpa Mei!"

"Please grandpa Ziran!"

The cries of two children sounded out in a narrow yard.

One of the kids was an adorable ten-year-old girl.

She had long light blue hair with streaks of white at the end and light bluish-silver eyes that seemed to contain stars. The girl was dressed in a blue dress with a jacket wrapped around her shoulder.

While the other was another adorable ten-year-old girl. The girl had long silver hair with streaks of blue and purple alongside purplish-silver eyes that seemed to glitter. Like her sister, she was wearing a silver dress with a jacket that was mostly white but blue streaks.

The first girl was Tang Jia, who was smiling and cheering on her grandfather Hui Mei. While the other girl was Tang Xiu who was mirroring her sister's action to their grandfather Tang Ziran.

Tang Wulin was able to find the reincarnations of Hui Mei and Sheng Ming. After he found them, he brought them to the God Realm while having them fused with the divine senses that were inside of him.

Allowing them to not only regain their memories but also the memories of these divine wisps. After they regain their memories, they didn't opt to get their positions back, both wanting to retire and relax.

With Sheng Ming using this time to dote on Tang Wulin and her grandkids.

"...Fine!"

"...Fine!"

Both Tang Ziran and Hui Mei sighed while their two adorable granddaughters cheered in victory.

They glance at each other before crouching down until they are at both girl's level. In the next moment, Tang Xiu and Tang Jia climbed onto their grandpa's shoulders while their hands stretched out.

"Okay! Let's get ready to start the round!"

As Tang Xiu said this, she glanced and waved at the smiling face of Sheng Ming and Lang Yue. Both women ignored the pleading gazes of their husbands, while they waved at the girls.

"Be careful now girls, your mounts may not be strong enough to hold out till the finish line~"

"I agree, they might buckle before the end."

"Oh! That is true, don't worry grandma! We will be careful!"

"We promise!"

Sheng Ming and Lang Yue giggled at this but then a cute voice rang out.

"Mom! Auntie! Why are dad and uncle looking so terrible?"

"Yeah! Weren't they cheerful a few days ago?"

Lang Yue and Sheng Meng glance down, sitting in Lang Yue's lap was a five-year-old adorable boy with a look of confusion.

The boy had short black wavy hair like Tang Ziran but grey eyes like his mother. But one could see hints of gold in the boy's hair and eyes.

Another boy was sitting in Sheng Ming's lap, looking around the same age as the one before. This boy had curly silver hair with streaks of green in it and crimson-brown eyes with streaks of white in it.

This was caused by Tang Wulin blessing both children and imparting his bloodline into them. The Universal Law had warned him that the children would go through many changes before they finally stopped.

"My cute little boy, they are just reaping what they sow."

Tang Zhen blinked his cute eyes, glancing at Hui Yijun before saying."They are?"

"Hehe, yes. Don't worry about them. Just enjoy the show with us okay?"

"Okay, auntie!"

"Okay, mommy!"

Tang Zhen smiled at his auntie Sheng Ming's words, while she pinched his and Hui Yijun's cheeks with a smile.

Tang Ziran and Hui Mei grimace, both screaming internally at their wife's amusement at their misfortune.

"Don't give us that look. Isn't it both of your faults for spoiling them rotten?"

Lang Yue giggled at Sheng Ming's words while the two men couldn't reply.

As both of them did give and do whatever the girls asked them to.

But how could they say no to them?

They couldn't bear hurting their grandkid's feelings, the only thing both of them want. Was their grandkids to be happy and keep up their smile.

No matter the cost!

But this still didn't stop them from inwardly crying, being treated as nothing more than mounts.

Even though Hui Mei was a God-King and Tang Ziran was a First-Class God, they couldn't do anything.

While their wife, God-King Sheng Ming and First Class Lang Yue laughed harder.

"Go grandpa Mei!"

"Go, Grandpa Ziran! We are going to beat Tang Xiu this time!"

"Yes..."

"Yes..."

#

"Isn't this a bit too much?"

"What do you mean honey?"

"I mean you trying to go through the whole library of the Divine Realm!"

The God-King Wu Siduo pointed out plainly towards her deranged Second Class mother Wu Yiyi.

"But sweety~ I haven't even gotten to half of the library yet."

Wu Siduo could only sigh at her mother's antics, glancing at all of the stacks of books that were laying around the area.

Sometimes she wondered if it was a good idea for Tang San to accept her mother's request of being allowed in the library.

Then again, the realm was benefiting as she was deciphering the old texts that held more history than they led on at first.

"Can't you do anything about her?"

Wu Siduo turned to the smiling Second Class God Zhuo Jiu but he only shook his head.

"You know how your mother gets when she is like this."

"...Right."

#

"Come on Hao! We gotta hurry up and go over to meet Wulin."

"Remember to bring the basket."

Xiao Wu and God-King Ah Yin shouted, their voice traveling through the house.

"Alright!"

God-King Tang Hao shouted back, as the sounds of movement could be heard in the kitchen.

"Thanks for inviting us, It's been a while since we visited him and them."

Ah Yin said while holding Xiao Wu's hand with a smile but Xiao Wu only shook her head with a giggle.

"Don't worry about it. I know you all have been busy, managing the Douluo Plane, so think of this as a vacation for you both."

Since the evolution of the Douluo Plane, Tang Hao and Ah Yin have been the ones who have been overseeing the plane.

They were the ones who would regulate the energy that was flowing through the realm.

As well as the ones who would inform the God Committee about any potential soul master for a position.

So far, most of the recent ascended Gods have been coming from the Douluo Plane. This included soul beasts as well since their curse was broken and the realm allowed them entry.

The numbers of beasts have been gradually climbing, almost at the level where they could rival the god's own.

"Besides, I can tell Wulin misses you both."

"Really? That brat, who has only just started calling me grandpa after so long."

Tang Hao commented with a huff as he moved out of the kitchen with baskets in his hand.

Ah Yin ignored his words. "He does? Hehe, I promise to make it up with him."

"Good! Even if he may look like he is annoyed, that's just his way of showing affection!"

'Pretty sure that's him being annoyed.'

Tang Hao thought but he didn't dare say it out loud to the two in front of him.

#

In another part of the realm.

An adorable boy with spiky blond hair with black streaks in it and goldish-blue eyes was hacking down on Peak God-King Ye Xinglan.

As the wooden sword came close to her, Ye Xinglan swept out, smacking it out of the boy's hand with her own.

"Darn it!"

"That wasn't so bad Tang Min! Just remember what we taught you!"

Peak God-King Xu Xiaoyan shouted as she was sitting on the steps of the training hall while she watched Tang Min moving for his sword.

"But auntie! Mom never gives me a chance to do any of the moves!"

At the start of the training, Ye Xinglan and Xu Xiaoyan were teaching Tang Min all of the specific movements of the sword.

From chopping to sweeping out.

So far he has only been able to implement, piercing, hacking, and cleaving. He hasn't been able to utilize the other movements in an effective manner.

Or well to the point Ye Xinglan would approve.

At the sound of her son complaining, Ye Xinglan's eyes narrowed."Is that whining I hear? I guess we should double the set-,"

"No! I am not complaining mom, I would never."

Tang Min waved his hand in a hurried matter. He didn't have the stamina or the will to undergo this hellish training any longer.

His mom was so sweet on other occasions but when it comes to training. She is like a tyrant that expects him to meet her standard on the first try.

That is way too much!

"There, there. If you can finish this up in the next 30 mins, I promise to cook your-,"

"Begin!"

Just as he heard Xu Xiaoyan's words, Tang Min seemed to have found some untapped energy inside of him.

As he charged at Ye Xinglan who was now sporting an amused smile, as she muttered.

"Just like his father."

#

In another part of the realm, in front of a towering tree that was giving off a white and green light.

In front of the tree were two figures that were talking.

"Didn't I tell you to stop running over here without telling anyone!"

"But mom! I have to run here without any of the noticings or else my spot is threatened!"

"Who cares about your spot-,"

"I do!"

"-If we don't know where you are, then we're going to worry!"

"About what? It's not like there is anything scary here?"

Tang Wutong could only sigh at the clueless expression on her son's face.

Although he did look cute as he titled his head in a confused manner while the wind swayed that strip of pink hair.

She couldn't really fault him in thinking there was nothing scary here because there really wasn't.

No one would dare to cause trouble in the realm, let alone in the area where her little brother was living in.

"Regardless, he isn't here."

Huo Zhanji pouted before saying." But where did he go? I wanted to play with uncle Wulin before Xuanyu and the others got here."

"Honestly, when it comes to Wulin. You all get into a fight... Is this because of his bloodline hack?"

Tang Wutong muttered the first part to her causing Huo Zhanji to tilt his head, cutely.

Tang Wulin Life Goddess and God of Existence bloodline were at the 10th-dimensional level. This allowed it so his presence would be able to attract and calm down every around him.

This was irritating to Wutong because it sometimes made Zhanji prefer him over her.

Which was unacceptable, she was his mother for peace's sake! Not only that but because of the torture, he put her through.

Dragging her away into his own 'personal training' leading her to years of suffering. His excuse was because she was too weak and needed to be at the top at least.

Wutong was trained until she became a Peak God-King, to the amusement of the others around.

'I will never thank him! Stupid little brother!'

"Ouch! Mom, you're pinching my cheek!"

"Hush, who told you to look so cute?"

#

In an unknown town, in front of an abandoned chapel.

A boy with short black hair and eyes was walking towards the altar, glancing all around in anxiety.

'Why did I let them talk me into this?... Oh right, they wanted Natsu to do it.'

The boy's face morphed into one of anger before he let out a sigh. He needed to hurry up and finish this so he could check on Natsu.

Or maybe Mavis will be there consoling him, hopefully, she won't smack him for going inside by himself.

She hated when he did things without her.

Opening the last door in front of him, he found himself in a hall. All around were chairs that were scattered around, but covered in dust and spider-webs.

Yet the boy's attention was on the man who sat in the front row down from the pathway. Strangely enough, there was also a black and white cat, lying on the man's head.

Normally the boy would have run the other way, as it was way too creepy that someone was here.

Considering it was abandoned and the mayor banned everyone from entering it.

But he felt at ease at the sight of the man. He didn't know why but it was as if him seeing the man was able to clear all doubts and fear.

"Hm? Someone other than me has wandered into this chapel?"

Even though the boy was at peace, he didn't dare to speak. His parents and the other adults already told them not to talk to strangers, even if they make them feel at ease.

"Don't be afraid now."

The boy furrowed his brows, not understanding why he didn't sense any danger from the man in front of him.

All he felt was the urge to get closer.

Releasing a sigh and gathering his courage, the boy made his way to the front of the hall, sitting next to the man.

It was then he noticed a book in the man's hand, it was the title...

"Dragon King of Apocalypse? That sounds like the title of someone..."

"It should, that person is pretty famous in this world... Would you like to hear it?"

"Hear it?"

"A legend that shocked the history of the world and even the universe?"

The man's crimson-gold and blue eyes landed on the boy's black ones, while the cat's nine-colored eyes regarded the boy.

Feeling something stirring him, something pushing him and beginning him to agree.

The boy known as Zeref could only say.

"Yes please."

But it was then a voice rang out.

"Zeref! Where are you! Mom and Dad don't want us to come home late again."

"Zeref!"

"Oh, right I have too home now..." Zeref glances at the man." Is it okay if I come tomorrow and hear it?"

"Sure."

Zeref eyes lit up before he bows before the man and rubbed the kitty's head. Then he ran out of the place, missing the smile on the man's face that grew.

As he reached the outside, he saw a ten-year-old girl with long golden flowing hair. She had emerald eyes that were staring ahead while a boy with pink hair was next to her.

Once they both saw Zeref, their eyes widen.

"Zeref!"

Zeref chuckled when he saw both of them rushing towards him. Arms open wide, he felt all of them rush into his embrace while they complained about him taking too long.

"Sorry for make you guys worry."

"Hm, as long as you're sorry..."Mavis muttered after finishing checking up on Zeref." Let's go before your parents ban you from playing with us!"

"Hahaha!"

#

"Are you sure this is fine? You could have easily brought them into the God Realm and give them their memories back."

The Universal Law said as he stared through the window of the chapel, seeing the three kids them moving away.

"I could... But I wanted to give him another chance."

"To live his life?"

"Yes." Tang Wulin held the book in his hand, this one held no title."Aren't you curious about the story he will make?"

"No? I can already see it and so can you... So why do you bother to watch?"

"It would be boring to just see his future~"

The Universal Law could only sigh at Tang Wulin antics before speaking up.

"Still... Fairy Tale? Really? That's the future name of their clan?"

"It isn't bad, after all. It represents their burning passion for an endless mystery and never-ending adventure."

Tang Wulin glance at the window once more before turning and leaving.

"Until the day we can truly meet once more. Live this life with all you got with the people you find on this journey."

"Bon voyage... Zeref."
