Hell's Handbook-Chapter 379
Chapter 379
Chimimoryo trembled a little. This was the first time she was trembling as a real, living being. She knew that Su Jin wasn抰 trying to scare her. Someone with the power to create a high-level god would certainly not be afraid of what they had created.
Su Jin could sense her fear, so he smiled and said, 揇on抰 worry. As long as you keep to our agreement, I won抰 do anything to you. Besides you抳e already become a god, so it抯 time you left my side. Your previous owner was a god, so I don抰 think you need my help for anything else?
Chimimoryo nodded and used her own newfound powers to slice a hole in space. But before leaving, she said to Su Jin, 揑抦 looking forward to the time our deal is completed, but to be honest I抦 not very optimistic about it. My previous owner was extremely powerful and I抳e seen others like you before, but all of them eventually died, and none of them lived for long.
揂h well, I抣l take that as a show of concern from you! Su Jin smiled and waved Chimimoryo on. She stepped into the hole she had created and disappeared. But just before she stepped in, Su Jin vaguely caught a glimpse of a glorious land of gods inside.
After Chimimoryo left, the Demon Lord suddenly appeared. She looked around several times, then said, 揑 sensed the presence of gods just now. Someone became a god here?
揟he commotion in here was almost as great as a nuclear bomb and you JUST noticed? Su Jin couldn抰 believe his ears.
She shrugged and said, 揥ell, about that I got to know a pretty nice girl and had a lot of fun, so I slept exceptionally well. Never mind that who became a god? Or did some gods come over and tried to kill you?
揘o, no, I helped Chimimoryo to become a god. Since she helped me before, I thought I抎 grant her wish. Su Jin did not tell the Demon Lord about his deal with Chimimoryo. In fact, Su Jin still wasn抰 too sure exactly what in the world the Demon Lord wanted. And because she was a top tier god, he still couldn抰 read her thoughts.
揝o generous? That fellow would need at least a Badge of Godhood to become a god. You mean you actually had one?! asked the Demon Lord in disbelief.
Su Jin grinned. 揑 happened to have one.
揧ou happened to have one? And next you抮e going to tell me you happened to kill off the will of the universe?! That was a Badge of Godhood, for crying out loud! Not a penny left on the floor that nobody wants! The Demon Lord was annoyed that Su Jin was hiding the truth from her, so she went back to her room to get dressed so that she could continue having fun. But after looking through all her things, she couldn抰 find her favorite dress.
揌ey! Have you seen my dress? A bright red one, a fiery red one! The Demon Lord hooked an arm around Su Jin抯 neck and pressed herself against him.
She was dressed in very thin pajamas, but Su Jin was in no mood to appreciate her voluptuous figure. He only knew that if the Demon Lord found out that he had given away her favorite dress, he wasn抰 going to have a house anymore.
揧our dress? I wouldn抰 know anything about that. Did you end up leaving it somewhere out there after getting drunk? Su Jin threw her a dubious look.
The Demon Lord looked back at his seemingly genuine expression and suddenly wasn抰 sure if she had really done that or not. After pausing to think for some time, she waved her hand about and said, 揊orget it, I抣l just buy another one.
揋ood idea! Su Jin quickly gave her a thumbs up and complimented her ability to look past these small details, then ran off before she could sense anything amiss.
Meanwhile, in a broken space, Kano Mai and her four companions had walked into a giant meteorite floating in space.
揟hey抳e molded the shards of an astronomical object with spatial abilities into a secret base. That抯 quite a lot of effort. Kano Mai only needed to take one look at the scene in front of her to understand what must have happened. This giant meteorite had been dug out from the inside, and the meteorite itself was the essence of an astronomical object with spatial abilities after it was shattered.
Such astronomical objects were very rare, and the limitless universe probably had no more than five or so. And to be able to find its essence after it had shattered was even harder. But there was an easier way to do this, which was to shatter the astronomical object yourself. Kano Mai guessed that was how this shard came about.
揥ait, no. This energy how is it so deep? Where in the world did this astronomical object shard come from? Kano Mai was stunned as she set foot on the shard and couldn抰 believe what she was sensing. This shard was extremely old. So old, it could compare to herself.
揙 great primordial deity, don抰 allow prejudices to blind yourself. Did you really think the primordial deities were the only clever ones among all the living creatures in the limitless universe? An old man stepped out of the entrance to the shard to welcome Kano Mai.
揋reetings, O great primordial deity! My name is Carl, said the old man to Kano Mai as he bowed.
Kano Mai was puzzled and asked, 揌ave we met before? Why do I feel like I抳e seen you before?
Carl smiled faintly and said, 揙f course we抳e met before. I am the first generation of new gods that was birthed before the universe was first destroyed. In fact, you can say that we抮e of the same age.
揑mpossible! said Kano Mai immediately. 揃esides myself, nobody could have dodged the destruction of the universe and live till now!
The smile on Carl抯 face did not fade as he said quietly, 揟he primordial deities have only one flaw, and that is pride. Overconfidence in themselves. Your race was destroyed back then precisely because of your pride. That was how you walked into the trap laid by the will of the universe!
Kano Mai was too stunned to speak for a while. She didn抰 want to admit it, but she couldn抰 deny it either. 揊ine! You said you抮e the first generation of gods birthed before the first destruction of the universe, but what proof do you have?
揚roof? This shard is proof. Can抰 you sense how old it is? Or rather don抰 you find it very endearing? said Carl with a smirk.
Kano Mai had noticed it too. When she stepped onto the shard, an odd emotion had filled her heart. The energy of the shard wasn抰 just old and deep, but it also felt very dear to her.
揥ait, this is厰 Kano Mai抯 eyes suddenly widened and tears rolled down her cheeks. She said in disbelief, 揟his is from my planet! The primordial deity planet!
揟hat抯 right. You still recognize it after all. I thought you might have trouble recognizing it after so many years had passed, Carl smiled and nodded.
Kano Mai couldn抰 stop crying. Of course she recognized it. Back before the first destruction of the universe, the will of the universe had led the new gods back then to her planet and smashed it to pieces. She didn抰 expect to be able to see it again.
揑 can die without regrets now that I抳e been able to see the primordial deity planet again. I don抰 remember you anymore, Carl, but I can sense that we抳e met before, said Kano Mai.
Carl nodded and said, 揑t抯 only natural that you wouldn抰 remember me. At my highest point, I was only an ordinary high-level god.
揟hen tell me, how did you manage to survive until now? asked Kano Mai.
But Carl asked her the same question, 揂nd how did YOU manage to survive till now?
揑 have a treasure created by the primordial deities, which is the amalgamation of the intelligence of all primordial deities! said Kano Mai proudly. Her race was always her pride and joy.
But Carl said gravely, 揝ounds like my case. I have the amalgamation of the intelligence of every intelligent being in the universe. My dear, great primordial deity! You are not the only victim in this limitless universe, and protestors can be found everywhere. Compared to the primordial deities, we might seem small and insignificant, but our quest for freedom and yearning for life is no less than the primordial deities!
Kano Mai didn抰 know what to say. How did she fail to think of this? The intelligent beings of the limitless universe back then had actually managed to create someone who was able to escape destruction and dodge the radar of Hell抯 Handbook. The primordial deities had been too arrogant, alright. The other intelligent lifeforms in the universe were no less intelligent than themselves. The only difference was probably when they existed.
