That puzzle is precisely about the final divine era legacy related to the protection of the kingdom.
Apart from a few royal bloodline families from the divine era, no one knows why this ancient divine era tower was built.
In the eyes of others, this is the last well-preserved divine era legacy on the continent.
Other buildings related to the divine era have long been eroded by time over millions of years, and most have turned to ashes. Not even fragments remain.
The few lucky ones that have been left behind mostly exist in certain forbidden areas with taboo powers as "ruins."
Among them, the majority exist as "tombs," becoming part of the forbidden zone underground, relying on the special magic left by the deceased before their death.
Standing in the center of the human city and still in perfect condition up to now, there is only this tall tower from the divine era.
The God Tower.
Tower of Origins.
Tower of Stargazing.
Uninformed people have given various names to this tower from the divine era.
It is not affected by the power of time, even after millions of years it still stands tall, without any traces of dirt from the passing years, shining with white light under the sunlight every day.
For ordinary people who have long lost the magical power of the divine era, this tower from the divine era is a miracle and also a symbol of the kingdom.
Many people believe that as long as this tower stands on this land, the glory of the divine era has not ended.
The first generation of kings who founded this ancient kingdom was said to have initially been the Guardian of this tower. Since then, the role of the tower's Guardian has been passed down through the divine era bloodline of the royal family, until Princess Ain's generation.
Until Ain opened the book titled "The Right Method for Hatching Dragon Eggs," he naturally thought that the divine era tower was used for observing stars at the observatory.
After all, this tower, which reaches a height of hundreds of meters, is still the tallest building on the continent, and the great plain where the royal city is located is also the most suitable terrain for stargazing.
On clear nights, this tower can easily observe the most beautiful starry sky in this continent.
Even though humans cannot leave this land, let alone traverse the atmosphere to truly experience the magnificent scenery of the stars, as long as they gaze at the galaxy, they can feel that they are also a part of the stars.
Throughout millions of years, the most abundant books left in the tower are various records of stargazing, from the mid divine era onwards, without interruption.
The atmosphere of this world is an insurmountable barrier, but the humans on this land see the boundless starry sky.
They confirmed that the world they are in is round, and the countless stars in the sky are different worlds.
Currently, all the stars that can be directly observed have not found any traces of similar civilizations, but occasionally, they discover the figures of certain terrifying creatures roaming in the sky.
However, not a single one of those creatures that can travel across the starry sky has ever discovered this world that is within reach, as if this world doesn't exist in the starry sky.
This problem is also a mystery in the entire world history.
Even though humans cannot fly outside the atmosphere, from the divine era onwards, it is not surprising that they built a magnificent observatory, chasing the path of the stars.
Princess Ain also thought this way before she knew the truth.
Reading various astronomy knowledge and imagining the scenery beyond the galaxy, it is one of the favorite hobbies of the Guardians of the divine era tower throughout generations.
Therefore, she always found it strange why, underground in the divine era tower where she and the warlocks of the divine era royal family resided, such a huge and exaggerated pool was built.
That pool, to be frank, was so large that even dragons could bathe in it, with a diameter of one kilometer!
The pool always flowed with comfortably warm water, emitting a pleasant scent that made one feel relaxed. Princess Ain and her younger sister Adley both loved swimming in this pool.
As for the royal family members who lived in the divine era tower throughout generations, there were at most a dozen or so.
No matter how you think about it, the divine era bloodline warlocks, who were the Guardians of the divine era tower, didn't need such an unbelievably large pool. Building such a huge pool just for enjoyment was simply wasteful.
Maybe, this is a pool that stores magic?
The runes engraved on the bottom of that transparent pool are one of the few pieces of knowledge that Princess Ain couldn't find recorded in any divine era books.
Despite her vast knowledge, she couldn't recognize any of the runes, as they were completely different from the magic system of the divine era and seemed to belong to another civilization.
It can be confirmed that the reason why this tower is completely unaffected by time, radiating a new brilliance every day in the sunlight, is definitely related to this huge pool.
The magical barrier that can cover the entire royal city is rare even in the divine era, and in this era where there is a shortage of hero-ranked magicians, there is no second one in the entire continent.
Every time Princess Ain enjoys this super-sized pool, she is grateful that her ancestors left behind such a valuable heritage.
It wasn't until today that she opened this book labeled "restricted for those above eighteen" that she finally discovered the truth about the divine era heritage she was protecting.
Turns out, the kingdom built this huge tower not to observe the stars, but to protect the pool beneath it.
Furthermore, the existence of this pool is what protects the divine era magical barrier that safeguards the entire capital city.
This tall tower of the divine era is neither called the God Tower nor the Origin Tower, nor is it a stargazing tower.
The ones who built it may not even be humans, and the royal family who protects this tower simply made a contract with certain beings, which is why there is this ridiculously large pool and a book that can only be opened by a warlock with the divine era bloodline.
"This is a tower for hatching dragon eggs!" Princess Ain, upon learning the truth, feels that her worldview and outlook on life have been completely overturned.
The last preserved heritage of the divine era on this continent is not the work of humans, but the crystallization of the wisdom of dragons.
The runes left in that pool are probably the fantasies of the dragon race.
This tower might have been the place where the dragon race used to hatch eggs that had lost their mothers a long time ago, and the method of hatching is recorded in that book.
After the disappearance of the dragon race, humans became the masters of the land and inherited the legacy of the dragon race, but there were no more dragon eggs that needed humans to help hatch.
Until today, she encountered an egg from outside of this world.
She thought it was a pool for swimming, but it's actually a super-sized bath specifically for hatching eggs!
