Alessandra's life was difficult and easy at the same time, as she clashed with Zao Li with much bitterness, and her relationships with other races were peaceful to tense to hostile.
In a forest called the Forest of Hope, Alessandra was sitting on a chair inside a hut she had built 5 months ago. She was writing all the sciences she had studied in this world, even though she didn't even consider it 1...0.00000 of the knowledge she possessed. But she documented sciences about human perception, knowing that her descendants would have limited thinking, not omniscient.
After she finished writing, she leaned back in her chair, stretching her arms. "The sea of knowledge is endless. No matter how much you strive, you will never reach its end. Even if you dive into its deep secrets, you will never reach its bottom. This is the life of beginnings, they have no ends, and some ends have no beginnings."
She decided to go to sleep, not because she needed sleep to regain her energy, but to escape the world and experience the feeling of her offspring who would need sleep to regain their energy.
After several centuries passed since Alessandra's journeys began in this world and other ordinary worlds, which lasted more than 865 years, just like Zao Li, Alessandra formed many relationships with various races and ethnicities due to her aura full of power and life that surrounded her for all these centuries.
In one of the huts where Alessandra was temporarily living, it was a two-story hut with several bedrooms, three bedrooms, a guest room, two toilets, and a kitchen.
In front of her house, she was sitting at a table with a tray of sweets, a white teapot, and white cups made of lunar jade glass. In front of her sat the leader of an angelic tribe named Yuzmira.
"So, what will you do, Saint Alessandra?"
Yuzmira's tone was calm as she sipped her tea, with a hint of curiosity, as she had been friends with Alessandra for years and knew her somewhat.
Alessandra directed her gaze to the sky, leaning on the chair. Her facial features were difficult to decipher.
"I think I will go to the Palace of Knowledge in Farsalkin to relax and place the books I have authored there."
Her tone was calm, full of dignity and indifference. However, her facial features turned into a slight smile as she looked at the sky.
"Life is truly strange. It added a thousand years to my age without me even trying to extend it. Zao Li, what were you thinking when you increased the duration of your life?"
After Zao Li's lifespan increased by a thousand years, Alessandra's lifespan also increased by the same amount, as they were linked. If Zao Li died, she would die too, and if she died, he would die with her. However, they would be reincarnated thanks to the spirit Ji Yao Li, which was hidden and protected in an unknown place until now.
Yuzmira placed her teacup on the table, looking at Alessandra with a sarcastic smile. "Come on, how long will you stay like this? Wake up!"
Alessandra glanced with her violet eyes towards Yuzmira, then turned her gaze back to the sky, ignoring what she said. She knew that the owner of this voice was not Yuzmira, but that strange entity that kept asking her to wake up and repeated the same name again and again.
"It seems your life hides secrets no one knows. Life is truly strange. It creates the weak from the strong. The strong are born weak, and from the weak, the strong are born. This is how my lineage will be born weak, and the weak will give birth to a stronger lineage, becoming rulers of the fantasy worlds and building their own fantasy world, separate and free from this world."
Her tone was confident in what she said, and this is what happened. After millions of years, her descendants became weaker, unable to use sacred ether, and had limited mana or energy. Even when they could use ether, it would be ordinary, not sacred like hers. Beginnings are not beginnings. Although Alessandra was at the beginning of humanity, she was not at the beginning of evolution. Her descendants became weaker after each generation. Nevertheless, there were those among her descendants who possessed terrifying power, surpassing the Boundless rank, to become rulers of fantasy worlds or travelers exploring the vast world. That is why she was not sad or worried about her descendants who would spread throughout all the worlds, existing within this fantasy world after her death.
After three days, Alessandra headed to the Palace of Knowledge in Farsalkin. It was a long journey that lasted several months, during which she passed by villages and tribes with whom she formed friendships.
After traveling for 7 months, she returned to the Palace of Knowledge in Farsalkin, her home at the same time, which she and Zao Li had built to establish their knowledge there. The Palace of Knowledge was built as a center for gathering all human knowledge, although it was not complete knowledge, allowing their descendants to research and develop on their own.
Palaces of Knowledge were built in all ordinary worlds within the fantasy world. This means there are infinite copies, and each copy contains almost different books suitable for the power system within those fantasy worlds, knowing that the main power system within this fantasy world was mental, physical, spiritual, mana, ki/chi aura. There was a difference in power levels, development methods, and systems. In this ordinary world, the main power system was called Konwa, and in other worlds, mana... etc.
The Palace of Knowledge was a giant palace the size of Chicago, equipped with a large number of offices and rooms of various kinds, making it protected by Zao Li. Anyone who tries to destroy it and all its copies will be erased from existence and tormented endlessly in hell.
Alessandra headed inside the palace and teleported to the center of the Palace of Knowledge, where the library was located, where she placed her books with Zao Li.
After placing her books, which numbered 45 books on magic, mana usage, and ether. She then headed towards one of the rooms.
She found a little girl, 6 years old, with gray hair and silver eyes.
"Beatrice, how are you? It seems you missed me." Alessandra's tone was soft, full of sincere love.
The little girl walked towards Alessandra, running. She looked adorable, especially in her silver dress, which was difficult to run in, giving her an angelic appearance. She jumped towards Alessandra with a sincere and kind smile on her face.
"I missed you, Master Alessandra. It's been two years this time, which is a long time." Beatrice's tone carried a slight annoyance.
This made Alessandra laugh lightly, looking at Beatrice, who had buried her head in her chest.
"You are right, my dear. Absence has made me miss you."
Alessandra loved Beatrice very much, even though she was not her daughter. She found her in the space between ordinary worlds inside a cocoon resembling a womb. Beatrice's power was immense, equal to Ji Yao Li's power, meaning above the Beyond-Existence rank, and she could crush entities of this rank without effort. So, she sealed her abilities, making her the same rank as her, fearing an attack from the guardians of the Tree of Existence or entities of the same power level. She decided to seal her power, which made her able to be reincarnated after every death.
After a quarter of an hour, Alessandra and Beatrice were strolling in the inner garden of the Palace of Knowledge in Farsalkin.
"Life is truly beautiful, isn't it, Beatrice?" Alessandra's tone was cheerful and happy as usual.
Beatrice raised her head to meet Alessandra's face. "Yes, life is beautiful, with its joys and sorrows, isn't it?" Beatrice's tone was childish. Her answer was based on what she had seen of a bright and happy world, and she had not yet seen its bitterness and filth, so she was always happy and cheerful.
After a few steps, Beatrice stopped, which made Alessandra...
"Come on, won't you wake up? You've slept too long. Wake up." Beatrice's tone was calm as she looked at Alessandra.
Alessandra's facial features turned cold. Her expression was hard to read, and she sighed deeply. "It's time to end this phase."
"Let's go, Beatrice. It seems it's lunchtime." Her tone was calm and beautiful, yet firm, accepting no argument.
"Okay, let's go back to the palace." Beatrice's tone carried some anger and annoyance because she wanted to explore the garden more with Alessandra but was interrupted because of her.
In the middle of the night, Alessandra was sitting on the roof of the Palace of Knowledge in Farsalkin, directing her gaze towards the place she would head to. Her expression was a mixture of anxiety and relief.
"The promised day has come. I never imagined I would meet him after more than 800 years since we parted. Although we crossed paths several times, we avoided confrontations." Her tone was calm, with a slight anxiety.
Zao Li was at the same power level as her, equal to her in everything. She decided to head towards the place where they were born, feeling that she would meet him there and end this farce, moving forward.
She headed towards the place where they were first born.
As soon as she arrived, her expression turned to shock as the simple design of the hall now bore two decorated thrones, and mana stones illuminated the place with a faint golden glow.
There was a white throne from which flowed a complex golden aura, emanating an overwhelming presence full of power and authority, and a black and crimson throne from which flowed a complex black-purple aura, emanating an overwhelming presence full of power and authority. She then sat on the white throne without saying anything, as she already knew what she had to do.
