The eight elemental islands now encircled the vast landmass Xuanyu had temporarily named the Central Continent, forming a protective ring of raw, primordial power.
Each island radiated its unique essence, subtly shaping the environment around it—blazing heat scorched the air, cascading waters carved new streams, unyielding stone formed towering peaks, and whispering winds molded the land with an unseen hand. Radiant light illuminated the skies, shifting shadows deepened the night, crackling thunder roared in the distance, and overflowing life pulsed with quiet vitality.
Their combined presence altered the world's natural balance, weaving an intricate network of forces that blended seamlessly into the ever-expanding realm. From above, the sight was striking—eight powerful domains bound together, all anchored by the growing heart of this new world: the Central Continent.
Yet, while the elemental islands had settled into their roles, the Central Continent remained home to something far greater.
----
The elemental fairies each awakened Origin Runes tied to their respective elements, granting them mastery over their natural domains. However, among them, a select few possessed runes that extended beyond elemental control.
Elaris, awakened the rune of Blood, which is her personal rune. Then the Myraid Race Blood Lake gave rise to Origin Rune of Evolution. He is sure that this Myraid Race Blood Lake would produce more Origin runes as his world continues to advance.
Then surprisingly Zero Two also got a personal rune and a Origin Rune. She technological being so he was little surprised when he got to know about her runes. Her personal rune is the Rune of Cybernetic Symbiosis, which lead to creation of Origin Rune of Technology.
When Xuanyu studied the effects of these two runes, he got happy and appointed Zero Two as head of every technological creation and advancement in his world.
So now Zero two is on earth elemental island creating a huge laboratory, workshop and a mineral processing machines. Eris is working alongside to fulfill the needs of Zero Two. Primarily Zero two have three major projects, first one is evolving the warship she previously repaired. His clone and tested it and flew in it for few hours. Then her second task is creation of a artificial intelligence, whose presence will drastically increase the technological advancements of his world. Third and last primary work of Zero Two is to evolve the armour design he gave her.
These above three are the major projects she is working on with several other side projects lie deciphering the alien civilisation technology that a spirit beast got.
Since spirit beasts doesn't have much interest in creation of technologies and all Ditian gifted it to him. Well Xuanyu didn't let him return for free, he gave him two blood fruits. One for the beast that got the rune and other for Ditian himself.

Kurumi awakened the Origin Rune of Time, refining her ability to manipulate temporal flow. While before she could accelerate or decelerate time in specific areas, the Origin rune now allowed her to stabilize or adjust it across the land.
Aisha, bearing the Origin Rune of Space, gained greater control over distances and dimensions. She could subtly influence travel across the Central Continent, ensuring movement remained efficient and uninterrupted. While the land itself remained vast, those who belonged here would always find their way, while unwelcome outsiders would face an unpredictable journey.
The large expansion of his world would have caused chaos in his world, if not for Aisha and Kurumi passively stabilizing the space and time of the newly born area. Aisha and Kurumi, with their Origin Runes of Space and Time, ensured the land's stability. Travel across the continent became more natural, guided by Aisha's influence. Time flowed consistently, neither erratic nor stagnant, under Kurumi's subtle adjustments.
With these Origin runes both Aisha and Kurumi became true controllers of the space and time rules of his world, ensuring that despite earratic and large scale world expansion, no problem shall occur in space and time.
----
Silvia's awakening, however, deviated from expectations. With affinities in multiple elements—Water, Fire, Earth, Air, Light, Darkness, and Space—her rune should have reflected one of them. Instead, she awakened the Rune of Creation.
Xuanyu had not anticipated this outcome.
Using his skill, Answer, he learned that the previous Dragon God had wielded both Creation and Destruction, forces beyond simple elemental categorization. Since Silvia and Valeria had been influenced by his Golden and Silver Dragon King bloodlines, their connection to these fundamental forces was inevitable.
Valeria's awakening confirmed this further.
But unlike the others, she did not receive a single Origin Rune—she awakened two: the Origin Rune of Destruction and the Origin Rune of Power.
While Silvia's presence encouraged expansion and renewal, Valeria's ensured that stagnation never took hold. She wielded the authority to break down what was unnecessary, allowing the cycle of strength and change to continue.
Silvia's Rune of Creation contributed to the continent's expansion. The land grew naturally, new rivers and forests forming in response to the world's needs. She is now true controller which will control who his world will expand.
Valeria's Runes of Destruction and Power acted as a counterbalance. While creation flourished, unnecessary or obsolete structures crumbled under her influence, preventing stagnation and maintaining progress.
Silvia creates, Valeria destroys the necessary, Aisha and Kurumi maintains the spatial and temporal stablilities.
Yet, even among these remarkable awakenings, one surpassed them all.
Titania, the Fairy Queen, awakened the Origin Rune of Authority.
Unlike elemental Origin Runes, which governed specific forces of nature, and even conceptual Origin Runes, which influenced broader aspects of reality, the Rune of Authority embodied command over all existing energies, laws, and fundamental forces.
This rune allowed Titania to regulate and balance all other Origin Runes, solidifying her role as the one who ensured harmony between them. It was not a rune of creation, destruction, time, or space—it was the force that determined how those very principles functioned in relation to each other.
Through her, the Central Continent maintained equilibrium.
If Silvia's creation expanded unchecked, Titania could guide it. If Valeria's destruction exceeded necessity, she could restrict it. Time and space, while powerful, remained within her jurisdiction, preventing instability. The land, the energies, and even the evolving inhabitants—all functioned within the framework she upheld.
While the elemental islands served as the foundation of the world's balance, the Central Continent had become the core of its structure.
A domain where strength, stability, and order converged.
Then above them all stood Xuanyu, with his World Origin Rune. The core of all the laws of the world. The highest ranking rune that allows one to control every law out there, whether it's elemental laws or special laws like Evolution, Space, Time, Authority, Technology etc. Xuanyu is sure that power of World Origin Rune will increase as his world would give birth to new Origin runes.
-----
While the elemental fairies settled within their respective islands, those who wielded superior Origin Runes remained in the Central Continent, their influence shaping its essence and above them all, Titania's Rune of Authority ensured that everything functioned as intended.
The Central Continent was not merely a landmass—it had become the foundation of this world's future.
And with its rulers in place, it was ready to evolve further.
