Chapter 151 Divine Power
"God's hunh, although they claimed to be high above and free from worldly desires, but I'll tell you something"
"Those bunch of idiots can be said to be the greediest of all people"
"The so-called Good god's cal slaughter millions of lives as long as they see enough benefits in doing so"
"While the Evil Gods can save lives if they feel it interesting or see something to gain from it"
"Those bastards are the most hypocritical set of people I ever encountered"
"If only I had explored my powers back then, I could have at least taken one or two of them down before they sealed me"
Talking about the Gods, a clear sense of malice could be detected in it
And Elric who was hearing the figure ramble as he had unknowingly given away his identity.
"Haha I knew it!"
"You're the Immortal Sovereign, the protagonist of your story!"
Looking at the figure still going on about how he hated the Gods, Elric laughed as he told him he had figured out his identity.
Unfortunately, contrary to what Elric thought, the figure was neither shocked nor surprised
"Haha took you long enough, however, while immortal sovereign may be my title back then, it is not my true name"
"Based on my level of deification, if you heard my real name your spirit would probably collapse"
Laughing nonchalantly, the figure casually threw out a bomb such as Elric's spirit collapsing
"Deification? Is it the same thing resulting in the rule 'mortals cannot look at God directly?' "
Asked Elric as he couldn't help but find himself curious
Deification, according to common sense this would have something to do with Deities meaning Gods
However, the goblin before him who detested the Gods claimed to be deified.
Could it be that deification meant something else than what he thought?
Thinking of this, Elric couldn't wait to hear the figure's answer.
"haha human, I'm becoming more and more to believe that you're the one destined to save me!"
"Yes, like what you think deification has something, but not totally to deal with Gods"
Unfortunately, hearing the figure say this Elric wasn't scared but rather worried.
That sound just now, it was the figure answering his questions. However, Elric was sure he hadn't asked it yet.
Could it be that the figure could read his mind?
But before Elric could get an answer the figure suddenly spoke again.
"Haha relax boy, I can't read your mind."
"And no just now I didn't read it, remember 'eye of time and space' "
"Although most of my powers are currently being sealed along with me, it isn't hard to predict your response a few times"
Sensing Elric's worries, the figure quickly explained trying to reduce his level of suspicion.
Unfortunately, this resulted in the opposite effect of Elric becoming more vigilant due to his sudden explanation.
Back on the blue star, there was a very popular saying.
'A thief would never call himself a thief, and a liar would never call himself a liar.'
Now Ekric felt that the saying could be used in this exact situation.
Obviously, if the figure did end up reading his mind, for all Ekric knew, by now all his secrets on the A.I chip and the small world could have been already revealed.
Thinking of this, his vigilance to the figure had already been raised to the extreme.
Although both of them hated Gods, Elric swore to himself that even if he was going to release the figure one day
That day would be when he had made sufficient preparations and had enough strength to both direct himself and fight back.
Even though Ekric knew he was quite strong already, but comparing it to someone who boasted about almost taking down two Gods.
Elric knew that he didn't have enough qualifications to show dissatisfaction as the weaker party.
So pretending not to be too affected by the figures' sudden 'prediction of the future', Ekric quickly changed the topic.
"Um… Mr immortal sovereign"
"You were about to explain deification?"
Asking this question, apart from changing the topic Elric also wanted to use this as an opportunity to satisfy his earlier curiosity.
Thankfully, the figure didn't think too much about it and quickly explained
"Deification huh, that one's a bit tricky to explain."
"As you might know, Gods perform miracles through something called divine power!"
"According to what I discovered back then in my days as the immortal sovereign, this divine power can be said to be a coagulation of faith."
"Possessing immense abilities such as manipulating the very laws of the world based on its attribute, Divine power can be Said to be almost omnipotent!"
"However if that was all, then I who was not a God should not have been deified right?"
Looking at the figure talk, Eric unknowingly became entrapped in his speech as the existence of divine power brought unlimited possibilities before his eyes.
And the figure watching Elric become like this nodded in satisfaction, as also he became like this after learning of its existence.
So seeing someone else in this state, the figure had some understanding
Taking a pause, the figure waited to give Elric a bit of time to get himself before continuing
"Deification, this is a special process that was created for Demi-gods by god, so they could ascend and become true gods"
"And how do I know this?"
"Of course back then when a few of them wanted to turn some of my people into followers, I slaughtered them I found out"
"Haha, I think I killed at least twenty or so demi-gods back in my day!"
"Probably the reason one of those four Gods was so angry when he found out he couldn't kill me and could only seal me since I was Immortal"
"Half of the demi-gods I killed were his children! Haha!"
Listening to the figure suddenly start boasting about killing someone's kids, Elric couldn't help but feel sorry for the God
