And we have reached second world there, it being Cultivation Online.
****
The 66th island started to be cleansed. The somewhat cloudy air cleared, and green forests and a lake appeared.
Next—
Kukukukukung!
An earthquake occurred. Nine pillars rose from the ground, centered around the huge lake.
No—
They were stone statues.
There were nine of them, each nearly 10 meters tall and carved in elaborate detail.
"Eh? Madra? Pagma?"
Alan was surprised by the rising statues. Two of the nine statues resembled Madra and Pagma. He was reminded of the original purpose of the Behen Archipelago.
"The Hall of Fame…! These are statues of the former legends?"
"That's right. They were made so that people of later generations could honor our achievements."
"Oho!"
Alan's face brightened once Madra confirmed it.
These were the people admired as legends—those who had left outstanding achievements in their respective fields.
What did they look like when they were alive?
Curious, Alan began observing each statue in turn. The first one was Pagma.
"Really nice."
Alan had already seen Pagma's appearance through Chreshler memories. That's why he knew.
He didn't know who the sculptor was, but the statue perfectly captured its subject. The carved figure of Pagma was just as beautiful as he had been in life.
"The blacksmith who fought for peace in the world…"
Pagma had killed Braham for being a demonkin and stolen his life force, despite being close enough to create a new mineral together. He had also signed a contract with the First Great Demon, Baal. He dug up the graves of former legends and turned them into death knights.
To be honest, he seemed like a ruthless person.
But it was undeniable that he had fought for the world.
Next was Braham.
The sculptor carved Braham wearing a robe and holding a staff, his expression calm and gentle. There was no trace of Braham's arrogance. It was the result of him taking away Mumud's achievements. Braham was recognized as a great figure who developed magic for humanity.
"Pathetic… stealing another's achievements and then acting like he deserves to be here," Alan said.
But he couldn't change it. After all, he couldn't just go around saying Braham was a thief—no one would believe him. Besides, it wasn't like Braham hadn't created his own magic theories. His personal enhanced magic was also a legendary feat.
"This is Madra…"
The third statue that Alan looked at was that of the Undefeated King, Madra. The stone statue of Madra matched what Alan had imagined.
He was a middle-aged man with a warm smile.
Next were Sword Saint Muller, Godly Archer Povia, Demon Slayer Alex, Tailor Kruger, and Miner Gis.
Sword Saint Muller was a young man who looked like the protagonist of a manhwa, with an ambitious expression on his face. Archer Povia, a half-elf, was incredibly beautiful, while Alex looked lonely—like a man carrying deep wounds. The spirit of craftsmanship could be felt from the faces of Kruger and Gis.
"Um…"
Alan's face gradually brightened as he looked at the former legends.
Now that he thought about it, he was the first player to see the faces of all the former legends.
Alan felt proud.
"I might be the only one who saw the faces of all former legends, but shouldn't there be achievement or something like this for feat?" Alan mumbled.
As if to praise him, the Behen Archipelago's compensation event finally began.
Kurururung!
A lake surrounded by nine stone statues.
Suddenly, waves began to form on its surface, drawing Alan's attention.
Puhahahak!
Something rose from the center of the lake.
A new statue.
A stone statue of a young man stood tall, radiating an overwhelming presence. He wore the cold, majestic Frost Light Orc King set, its intricate armor exuding both authority and chilling power.
In his right hand, he held a beautiful crimson crystal sword, glowing faintly as if alive. In his left, he carried the Hellfire Staff, its surface etched with red patterns, pulsing with hellfire.
On his shoulder sat a small Memphis Cat—Sapphire—its sharp eyes gleaming with intelligence.
At his feet rested a majestic beast.
A pure white lion with piercing blue eyes—
The Holy Imperial Lion.
It stood proudly beside him, as if guarding its king.
It was Alan.
A statue of Blood King Alan had been erected in the Hall of Fame—placed at the very center of the lake, surrounded and acknowledged by the nine former legends.
"Wow…"
Being registered in the Hall of Fame didn't simply mean having his name recorded.
It meant becoming a legend.
Alan felt a surge of excitement far greater than he had expected.
I'm standing alongside the previous legends…
For a moment, he was completely absorbed in the feeling.
Then—
Notification windows appeared before him.
[The Behen Archipelago has been successfully purified.]
[You deserve praise for cleansing the Behen Archipelago, which remained untouched for many years after the invasion of the Great Demons, and for granting rest to the former legends. Your achievement will be recorded forever.]
[Your statue has been erected in the Hall of Fame of the Behen Archipelago. Exclusive statue buffs have been created.]
[As a reward for cleansing the Behen Archipelago, you have gained 5 levels!]
[Your Challenger Points have reached the maximum (1,000,000) as compensation.]
[You can now access the Fog Island Store.]
[As a favor from Death Knight Madra, guardian of the 66th island, a special item has been added to the Fog Island Store!]
"Fog Island Store… isn't that the same store where I purchased the elixirs?"
Alan smiled. With a million points, he could buy a large number of elixirs.
Thinking this, he walked toward the carriage and opened it—
Only to freeze in place.
"…What?"
He was dumbfounded.
There were only two items inside.
—Fog Island Items List—

[East Continent Movement Portal Scroll]

"…????"
A diary…?
The special item was just a diary?
And it cost one million Challenger Points?
"And where are the elixirs?" Alan muttered, frowning in disbelief.
He stared at the list again, as if expecting more items to appear.
