Chapter 1837: The Request.
Legion-4 looked around for enemies as he asked, "How are you still alive? I thought every god in the previous era was dead."
It shook its head gently as it replied, "You are wrong on both assumptions. I am not alive. I am dead. This is just a remnant of my will. I died in a tide of the ancients rising. But not every god in my era was killed. Our foundations in the mortal and divine realm were cut off, which caused many of us to die, but some managed to hide and live on."
Legion-4 was intrigued. He said, "I see. So you must know a lot of information about the past."
"I do. Unfortunately, I can't tell you."
Legion-4 frowned and asked, "Then why have you appeared if not to talk?"
It chuckled and said, "How impatient. I can'ttell you because I want something from you first. Don't worry. Your angel should be able to tell you after you receive my legacy.
He noticed something about what the cyclops said and pointed it out, "I take it that you had angels of knowledge in your era too."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
It asked in confusion, "What do you mean? Every god, even lowly god seeds have angels of knowledge."
He changed the conversation, "Nevermind. It was just an idle observation. Can you leave this world at all?"
The cyclops was even more confused. It said, "I don't understand. Isn't this world all that there is in all of existence?"
He smiled and said, "My mistake. Let's return to the matter at hand. What do I have to do to get your knowledge and legacy? If it requires me to spare your domain or resurrect you then you can forget about it."
The cyclops chuckled and said, "I am already dead. I can't return. It would be good enough that I can employ the assistance of a strong god like you to help me sort out something."
"I am sure you will like what I want you to do. It won't stop you from gaining the domain, but it might grant you more. After all, I have more than a domain in my legacy."
Legion-4 became attentive at the mention of more reward. He said, "I'm listening."
Kutneri explained, "I have an enemy that I believe is still alive. I want you to help me confirm her death or kill her if she is still alive. She is Oceania, the goddess of storms. In return I will tell you the location of my divine kingdom. I am not sure of the state of my wealth in it, but if it still exist, it will help you become a heavenly god."
Legion-4 turned to his angel and asked, "Is that true?"
It replied, "I won't know until you absorb the domain."
Legion-4 considered the request and said, "Alright. I accept your request. I will make sure that this god is dead."
He received a notification immediately.

Kutneri said to him, "Thank you, my successor. I wish you good luck."
The golden cyclops scattered into golden motes of light leaving behind a golden flame. Legion-4 took it and put it into his inventory. Unfortunately he couldn't store it.
He said with a smile on the face of his true body in the void universe, "So it is like a divine orb. I have to absorb it or carry it around. I can already see the trouble that this will cause."
He can already picture what will happen when he is seen carrying a domain around by other gods. The gods were willing to gang up on them for mere divine calamities. The prospect of a domain will make them go crazy. The thought of how crazy they would get made him smile in anticipation.
His act of taking the domain made a white door appeared in the darkness. He could see the divine domain from beyond the door. Freedom was within his reach, but the prospect of what he would encounter past it made the exit a lot more appealing to him. He couldn't wait to leave.
His angel advised him, "You can begin the absorption process now, but it will remain incomplete until you can reach your altar to evolve."
He nodded and decided to absorb the golden flame immediately. The domain sank into his body. The fire began burning within him instead. It made his eyes glow like torches.
His eyes even produced a cone of brightness in the dark. He didn't need the light to see, but this way, others who don't have dark sight will be able to see in the dark too.
He took a step towards the exit. Before he left, his angel warned him, "You are not out of danger yet. You will drop the domain if your divine body dies."
Legion-4 nodded and left through the white door. The dark room began shaking after he left. Not only it, every room the clones were in was also shaking. The whole trial space was coming
apart.
The space of the trial collapsed behind him immediately he left. Everyone within it appeared above the ground where the hole used to be.
The clones were not the only ones that appeared. There were other participants and those who couldn't enter after the entrance closed but decided to wait.
All of them were 112 in number. This is because most of the tens of thousands of gods that had entered the trial had died. The remaining gods were jam packed together. It made it easy for Legion-4 and his weird state to be discovered.
The clones attacked everyone around them. They didn't choose to run or hide in hopes no one would discover the glowing eyes of one of them. They decided to catch their future enemies
off guard.
