Woke Up to Find the Game I Made Came True

Ye Bai took out the bread, only to awkwardly realize the paper figure couldn’t eat it.

“Thank you, but I can’t consume it in my condition. You should give it to Autofis instead,” the paper figure said with a light chuckle.

Without needing to be told, the donkey beside them had already snatched the bread in one bite, chewing unceremoniously.

The paper figure looked at Ye Bai and continued, “My current strength only allows me to do this much. If you can venture into the depths of the Abyss… and retrieve a certain item, I might regain a bit more power to assist you.”

The depths of the Abyss—one of the six supreme races in the Divine Realm, representing chaos and magma. Among them, the most iconic and formidable beings were demons, nearly on par with ancient dragons, creatures of semi-divine or divine level, ranging from level 80 to 100.

Damn it, this paper figure who can’t even eat bread is already dangling another carrot!

The thought had barely formed in Ye Bai’s mind when the paper figure added, “However, the Abyssal race wasn’t completely wiped out. Many have likely revived by now. It’s best if you avoid such a dangerous place for the time being and focus on improving your strength first.”

“You don’t seem in a hurry?” Hearing this, Ye Bai was momentarily taken aback, but her curiosity was piqued instead.

After witnessing the last ancient dragon ‘revive’ and perish during the dungeon incident, Ye Bai had grown intensely curious about the current state of the Divine Realm and the events of the past.

The Abyssal race hadn’t been completely annihilated—this “not completely” was worth pondering.

The paper figure smiled serenely. “Being anxious won’t help. After waiting this long, a little more time makes no difference.”

Waited this long?

Seems like this paper figure is tied to a major quest with deep roots…

Ye Bai had always felt the Divine Realm was inextricably linked to the secrets behind the Ten Thousand Realms. Now that she’d obtained the Weaving Clan’s fabric, she could wrap up Dilina’s personal quest upon returning, freeing up a quest slot. Taking on a Divine Realm quest wouldn’t hurt.

As for the potential conflicts triggered by accepting the paper figure’s quest, Ye Bai had already considered them.

No matter which path a questline took, there would be corresponding rewards. She didn’t know where to trigger the opposing questline for the paper figure’s task, but the rewards for this path were already laid out—

Using the *Codex of Death* without its negative effects.

This was one of only eight divine artifacts in the entire game!

For now, the paper figure had removed the most severe penalty—turning into an undead. The next phase could involve modifying the equipment requirements… Ye Bai wasn’t asking for much. If the paper figure could lower the level requirement from 80 (semi-divine) to 60, she’d have a way to equip this item!

Compared to the unknown rewards of the opposing questline, something tangible and confirmed was far more appealing.

After a moment’s thought, Ye Bai decided to accept the quest tied to the paper figure.

If the paper figure wasn’t in a hurry, that meant there was no time limit. She could complete it whenever she felt her level was sufficient.

“Alright, then tell me what you need me to do.”

Hearing this, the paper figure’s eyes visibly brightened—no longer abstract, transforming from “=” to “0.”

The paper figure spoke slowly, “You must have heard that the most powerful being in this divine domain will ascend to the Throne of the Divine King, becoming the ruler of all gods.”

Of course, Ye Bai thought, nodding at the paper figure.

The Throne of the Divine King referred to the main storyline of conquest in the Divine Realm—a fact engraved in the subconscious and memories of every NPC there. Every powerful race knew this: defeat all rivals of the same tier, become the undisputed strongest, and claim the throne.

In Ye Bai’s memory, this was just a rough setting. The beta version hadn’t explored it, and she had no idea how it played out in this full-dive version of the Divine Realm.

The paper figure continued, “I will lead you to this world’s ultimate secret—the Divine King’s Treasure.”

**[Nameless One has issued you the untimed main quest ‘Divine King’s Treasure.’ Accept?]**

Main quest?!

Ye Bai froze. As one of the game’s creators, she hadn’t even known this main quest existed. The beta version of *Ten Thousand Realms* only had personal quests—nothing that could be called a “main quest.”

“Wait… the Divine King’s Treasure? You mean there’s already been a Divine King?”

“Of course,” the paper figure said matter-of-factly. “There had to be a Divine King first for there to be a treasure, right? Everything about me was erased by the curse—the only memory I retained is this. That place is beyond my reach. Only you can go.”

Well, well. So the Divine King’s battle royale had already concluded in the Divine Realm.

Ye Bai pressed further, “Then where is the Divine King now?”

“I don’t know. After being cursed, I found no records about the Divine King,” the paper figure replied. “Then again, my access is limited. Perhaps I just couldn’t encounter them.”

If even records were missing, it was as if they’d been deliberately erased… Ye Bai mused, then asked, “Compared to that, don’t you want to break the curse on yourself?”

The paper figure scratched its head. “It’s not that I don’t want to, but if I had to choose between the two, I’d pick the former.”

Ye Bai frowned thoughtfully. “If it’s that crucial… could the Divine King’s Treasure be the key to breaking your curse?”

Putting herself in the paper figure’s shoes—if she’d been reduced to such a state, forced to forget even her name, the one thing she’d remember would surely be tied to restoring herself.

Was this guy the missing Divine King?

“That… I truly don’t know. If it can lift the curse, all the better,” the paper figure answered hesitantly.

But if the paper figure were the Divine King, it’d be a paradox. The Divine King should be the pinnacle of the Divine Realm—how could someone so mighty be cursed into this state? That wouldn’t make sense for the strongest being!

Then again, perhaps the paper figure was the Divine King’s enemy or rival. Maybe the one who sealed him was the Divine King, and the treasure’s location held the means to break the curse.

Whatever. She’d cross that bridge when she got there. For now, either scenario made no difference to her.

**[Yes]**

Ye Bai accepted the quest. Now, it was time to leave the Divine Realm and return home in glory (emphasis on *glory*).
