Book 10: Chapter 55: Surge (1)
By the time Dyon came to from his thoughts, he realized that he was the recipient of several dozen expectant gazes. After thinking for a moment, he finally remembered that his purpose here hadn’t been to listen to a nice story, he had been here to take the Emperor Giants under his wing!
He had never expected this to be easy, but reality was outside his predictions. However, taking the Emperor Giants under his rule was as good as painting a massive target on his back.
The more Dyon thought about it, the more hesitant he became, but in the end, he sneered, his heart becoming firm.
It turned out that he had almost become like those Heads of Clans he hated so much when he was a younger man. It was truly difficult to ignore consequences when one had the lives of billions in your care.
Back then, he was all alone. He even had to fight for the right to marry his own women. Why would he care about ramifications all those years ago? The only person he had to answer to was himself!
But now, things were different. Every decision he made could potentially lead to the death of countless individuals.
Still… If he had been this timid all those years ago, would those very individuals who led grand lives have the opportunity to do so?! He would never forsake the mentality that raised him up to the heights he sat upon today!
Plus, wasn’t his Amphorae an Angel?
During the previous timeline, Dyon hadn’t unsealed his constitution yet, so venturing in Chaos Universe would have been a foolish ideal. As such, he didn’t find and awaken his father-in-law and Amphorae until long after the Ancient Battlefield descended and the war ended!
Thanks to this, Amphorae’s existence didn’t reappear until after Dyon had taken hold of significant power on the Mortal Plane.
However, would things be the same this time? Since Amphorae was no longer hiding away in Chaos Universe, would she still go unnoticed?
Since those Titans dared to have designs on his wife, they would feel his wrath!
Step onto the Mortal Plane and seek revenge…? He wouldn’t even allow them the chance!
Dyon smiled lightly. “I’m willing to accept the Emperor Giants, but…”
The excitement they felt at the start of his words were doused. If they didn’t have adequate backing, they would be eradicated the moment the Titans sensed their existence.
Their Clan didn’t have a single Higher Existence. Though they were confident that Anak would one day reach that height, that day was too far away!
The first phase of the Ancient Battlefield was a stage for youths to rapidly increase their strength, but what would the Titans do when they sensed someone with Angel Blood enter their domain? Would Anak even have a chance?
This all led to the decision today. No matter what, they had to rely on the Sacharro Clan!
“Anything.” Emperor Angelus’ voice was stern. It rumbled through the large planet like a warm breeze.
He stood, kneeling down to a single knee. Though, with how massive his body was, even like this, he was still far taller than Dyon.
No matter what, he was still a high-level Dao Formation Expert. Even though the man before him was a Higher Existence, there must be some significance in him lowering his head like this.
“There’s no need for this.” Dyon reached up and lightly tapped the Emperor Giant’s shoulder.
An uncontrollably pressure forced Emperor Angelus up, but it felt like a gentle wind. He only needed a moment to understand just how deep this Higher Existence’s wind dao was.
“This isn’t the kind of sincerity I was referring to. This matter is actually more simple than you think. Simply allow me to conquer your Universe Spirits and you will have the Sacharro Clan’s full support.”
“This…” The Emperor Giants looked at one another and nodded. “… We agree.”
“Good.” Dyon smiled. “Let’s start with this one!”
A glimmer of excitement bloomed in Dyon’s eyes.
He had been looking for a worth 300th universe for a while. In his mind, this universe was excellent.
Its energy density was incredibly high, only marginally weaker than Soul Universe soul qi density. In addition, it was brimming with resources the Emperor Giants simply hadn’t been able to find just yet, yet they were all easily projected into Dyon’s mind.
Emperor Angelus coughed awkwardly. “… About this, Higher Existence Sacharro… Our Clan has never been able to find this universe’s Spirit.”
Dyon gave the Emperor a weird look.
You made this universe the core of your lands without claiming its Faith? Wasn’t that a bit too… irresponsible?
But then, Dyon understood. This universe was truly too good. Even if it was a neutral space and didn’t provide the maximum benefits it could, it was actually still far better than almost all the universes Dyon had except for Soul Universe and Chaos Universe.
Emperor Angelus scratched his large head.
“… It’s like this. Our Angel Blood pulled us to this universe after we were forced out of the Nephilim Alliance countless years ago for various reasons. There’s no need to worry, there’s no bad blood between us and that Alliance, it’s just that we weren’t suited to remain any longer.
“When we got here, we managed to find many important relics of our past, and even have good reason to believe that this place was once a stronghold of the Olympus Clan. However, finding the Universe Spirit has been impossible… And, even if we did find it, I don’t believe we could subdue it…”
