Chapter 221: Chapter 221: Tomb’s sarcophagus

Michael looked at the crack in the stone brick walls, realizing that the Earth mana had parted ways to show him a completely different room in a completely different space. If one looked at the cracks from the side, they would see nothing but a two - dimensional line that had no depth at all. This gave Michael an idea on where the treasure room was hidden. It was in a small pocket dimension. Now, he didn't know much about the specifics of a pocket dimension, but Michael had heard it discussed in anime and fantasy media from his previous world. Without further ado, Michael empowered the revolving air in his feet and pushed himself towards the crack. As his body crossed over to the cracks, the crystallized Earth mana suddenly closed up, reconstructing its structure to how it was before. It gave no chance for the other adventurers to even try and go after him. By the time they realized what was happening, Michael was already gone and the cracks had healed into the normal, unassuming stone brick walls of the chamber. "What…just happened?" And so, the name Reborn company would once again be imprinted into the hearts of every single adventurer who witnessed this whole event. Michael stepped off the crack just like how he would traverse a door. There was no transportation or removal of his body at all. It was as if the pocket dimension was just another room in the world. Of course, he didn't forget to have ChatJK3 try and analyze the very magic theory governing this pocket dimension. He looked around and saw himself in a hallway leading to a confined chamber in the distance. The stone brick walls around him were in pristine condition, with no sign of degradation or cracks in its structure. If Michael didn't know any better, then he would have thought that this place was created just yesterday. This was probably what the tomb would look like a thousand years ago when it was first constructed, Michael thought, appreciating its architecture. The hallway was lit up by torches, which was mystically being powered up by nothing but Fire mana, probably a spell left behind by its creator. He looked around and saw paintings depicting some kind of historical scene from the past. These paintings were simple and two - dimensional, reminiscent of the Egyptian paintings back in his previous life. From the very start of the hallway, he saw a scene depicting a normal man in a ship, looking over towards a large landmass in the distance. And as Michael walked down the hallway, he saw the paintings progress in story as well. The next scene depicted the same man touching down on the land and meeting with the locals. After that, the painting showed him bringing gifts and establishing connections with the natives. Michael kept on walking through the hallway, keeping up with the history that this scene depicted. It wasn't long before the adventurous man who 'discovered' this new land, ended up establishing his own country, depicted by him planting his own flag onto fertile land. The next few paintings showed him progressing his country, creating buildings, progressing infrastructure, and generating peace for his citizens. The paintings after this now showed the man leading an army to siege a walled territory. There were a couple of depictions of this, each showing the man conquering different territories, until finally, he united the large continent that he discovered into one country. Michael was finally at the end of the hallway, onto the last painting. This time, this painting was a lot more realistic, almost like Leonardo Da Vinci painted it himself. And this painting had a title. {The First Human Emperor Establishing the Royal Continent.} It showed the man finally happy and content, looking over his land from his castle. ChatJK3, can you summarize what these paintings mean?
