The World Serpent

Far away from the fringes of the vast continent, in the boundless ocean of the Realm of Piksyon. A Gargantuan Shadowy Humanoid Figure stood. His figure was piercing through the heavens signifying his size. Unfortunately, his Size couldn't get accurately calculated as he was too hazy and far. 

Anyway, He was one of the many Archaeos within the Realm of Piksyon. An Old Race that had already lived far beyond the creation of Piksyon. Only legends of them existed, and even their legends were as hazy as their existence. Most living beings within the Realm of Piksyon wouldn't be able to easily enter the fringes of the continent and leave without any problems. 

Such a simple fact signified the strength of the one that caused trouble for him. Regardless of the power of the troublesome one, it was fortunate that she had left after giving up on causing trouble in the ocean. Though, it seems that the lone Archaeos forgot to introduce himself. 

He was Neptune, the Archaeos of the Ocean. Dozens of Archaeos were living on his territory after that moment. After the creation of the World Tree, the Archaeos Race got exiled into the outer parts of the Realm of Piksyon. Even then, the Archaeos didn't have any hatred for those inhabiting the continent. 

After all, having somewhere to stay one was enough for them. As long as no one and nothing bothered them, they wouldn't move that much and stay at the bottom of the ocean. With this, it was clear that the troublesome one caused severe problems for the Archaeos in the ocean. 

"I originally thought that the bastards were playing a prank on me, but I didn't expect for a planet to fall on the spot." The Archaeos Race has not been using its power at such an extraordinary level for billions of years. The promise wasn't something that was easily broken, so Nepture instantly knew that it wasn't some random Archaeos that caused the trouble. 

Of course, after the planet, the bastard threw a small star towards the ocean. If not for Neptune, a lot of Archaeos would be waking up with pissed-off expressions. The ignorants staying in the Great Forest. They were lucky that the Archaeos were a pacified race despite the bloody history behind them. 

"But, that little girl. I can't believe such a body could contain a massive amount of power. It appears that the ignorants in the continent have been getting stronger and stronger while we were sleeping. Well, that was to be expected." Neptune shook his head, causing massive amounts of waves and air to disperse to the surroundings. 

Even so, compared to those above and beyond. Their strength seemed to feel insignificant. But, comparing those old races to the young races within the continent would be far from fair. It would be foolish as it was like comparing a young star to a black hole. The power and age were completely different. 

"Is it time for us to fully wake up and interact with the young races? This seemed to be a bad time to reveal ourselves. I can feel a giant war from here." Neptune had known that young races would be prone to war. Even the old ones couldn't completely abandon the concept.

"Neptune, is there something wrong?" An Archaeos asked within the mind of Neptune. As Neptune had woken up from his sleep, the others had also awakened some of their consciousness. Hearing such words echoing within his mind, Neptune sighed as it was too late. His awakening was sensitive to the Archaeos within the bottom of the Ocean. They would instantly notice him the moment he woke up. 

"A little girl caused some trouble causing me to wake up. That little bastard threw a small star in the ocean. If it was an ordinary ocean, its storm might envelop the Realm of Piksyon. Fortunately, I controlled the problem, and it didn't escalate beyond control." Neptune explained with a calm voice. 

His voice echoed all over the ocean. All the Archaeos must have heard his words by now. Personally, Neptune would want them to go back to sleep. But as the leader of the Archaeos, Neptune needed to think about them and their opinions about the matter. 

They had followed him since the beginning. They didn't question his orders and slept for a long time. Neptune understood the limits of his power and the limits of their patience. It appears that even if a Great War had started, the Archaeos Race would start contact with the young race. 

"That Little Girl must have been powerful if she had been able to wake you up. It appears that the Young Races are ready. They need to learn more about the Realm of Piksyon and beyond. For our safety and theirs, do you think the same, Leader?" A Feminine voice echoed as Neptune sighed. 

The one who had spoken was none other than the Archaeos of Earth, Gaea. As the Archaeos of Earth, it would have been humiliating for her to stay in the ocean. But those days have long since passed. She was completely focused on the survival of her race. Nothing more, nothing less. Pride wasn't something she could use in such a situation. 

"Yes, I have the same thoughts. But, the young races are currently warring against each other. It seems to be massive as it enveloped the whole continent. If we reveal ourselves at this moment, it wouldn't help any of us and would cause confusion instead." Neptune explained his thoughts about the situation and it made sense. 

"Understandable, should we wait until they conclude their puny war?" Gaea accepted the reasoning of Neptune. There was no need to be impatient. Understanding the situation and giving orders related to the situation would increase their odds of survival. With her thoughts, Gaea understood once again that Neptune was the perfect leader of their race. 

"That was what I was planning to do if I had not seen that Little Girl. She appears to notice me yet disappeared as if she didn't care about my revelation. Though, she did look like that her Small Star having no effect on the ocean had a blow on her confidence." 

Neptune couldn't help but quietly chuckle. He remembered the face of the young girl that resembled the face of loss. He had known that such wasn't the limit of the young girl. She was bound to rise greater and greater. She might even surpass everything and everyone in the Realm of Piksyon and beyond. 

"Hmm... I see... The one that created a Planet and a Small Star. I also found her interesting. I hope to meet her in the future." Gaea remembered the words of Neptune about the girl. From his words, she sounded intriguing. An intriguing strong girl of the Continent. 

"We'll meet with them in the future. For now, let's take care of the outsiders trying to break in." A cold and serious voice escaped from Neptune's mouth. He turned his giant head towards the heavens and gazed upon the bastards that were trying to enter the Realm of Piksyon. 

"You mean them? The Outer Gods? I can't believe that they are targeting this world. It appears that they are planning to do something. The Great War might even be caused by them. The situation at hand got complicated. If there are Outer Gods in question, there is no need for our race to hide in the ocean." Gaea spoke with a stern voice, which echoed within the mind of Neptune. 

The Realm of Piksyon was their home. It was a home they had inhabited for a long time after the destruction of their Homeworld. They wouldn't let anyone from the outside touch the Realm of Piksyon. Resulting in a conclusion that all of them must awaken from their slumber. 

"This world doesn't have a World Administrator, but this is one of the biggest and strongest worlds within the reality. Even Gods would be powerless if they entered such a place. Only those who are recognized by the Realm could freely wield their power." Neptune said as he slowly smiled. 

"Despite being exiled from the continent, Our race could still manipulate their power without any problems. Concluding that the Realm had recognized us and has given us the title to become the Guardians of the Realm. This means that even if there wasn't a World Administrator in the Realm of Piksyon. A New one might get born sooner or later." 

The Birth of a World Administrator of the Realm of Piksyon. With the vast lands of the Realm of Piksyon, the power the  World Administrator would hold would be immense and powerful. Especially when in the Realm of Piksyon, the continent only contains 1/5 of the Realm. The remaining was a vast ocean of nothingness.

"The Realm of Piksyon has great potential. It's like having ten or twenty worlds strapped into one realm. If we protect the Realm of Piksyon, we might get considered as its permanent residents. We would have a new home, and our kind can rehabilitate from extinction." 

How long has it been? Only 100 Archaeos existed within the Realm of Piksyon. Of the thousands of Archaeos, only a hundred of them remained. Neptune, the current Leader of the Archaeos was one of the weakest Prime Archaeos. Even Gaea was stronger than him, but he was always calm, even with the raging ocean. He got promoted as the Leader of their Race due to his calm and intelligent temperament. 

"A New Home? I thought that this place was already our home?" Gaea smirked as she slowly faded from the mind of Neptune.
