Middle Realm, Western Cardinal

Green Continent, World Forest Region

Fourteen years have passed by within the mortal world, and everything within the World Forest was going fine.

So far, the Regions had connected together to truly represent the Green Continent as a whole. The Regional barriers were also off, and Regional battles could begin anytime at all.

But the World Forest still did not mind at all. Whether the other thousands of Regions attacked or not, they feared nothing at all.

After all, what could they fear if they had five Ancient Deitied already? Yes, there were five Ancient Deities within the Green River Empire at this point in time.

Gill Jr was the first, he broke through six years ago and became the first Ancient Deity, thus increasing the Providence of the Green River Empire greatly.

Then broke through one after another to the peak Ancient Deity realm. And he was not far from breaking through again into become a genuine Demigod at this point.

He had also come close to grasping the True Law of Constellations. He was at a Pseudo-True Law attainments at the moment. Such talent humbled even Goddess Nia herself.

He was then followed by Nia and David, who broke through at the same year, four years ago, and asserting their Dominance as the only Monarch-ranked individuals... for now.

Though David was just a guardian, everyone knew that his status was not below that of Nia at all. As they both seemed more like a couple in power.

The next to promote was Lulu and Krishna, who broke through a year after Nia and David. The four Nether sisters were following behind and planning to Breakthrough currently.

That was not all, the Providence of a three star Empire could allow a hundred Deities to rise per year. But thanks to the vast Providence of the Green River Empire rising, due to the Ancient Deities and multiple Deity Kings, more than five hundred Deities were born per year.

Fourteen years was an increase of five thousand more Deities, including the fact that the Providence was previously three hundred Deities per year.

What was worth celebrating for Nia was that the shard-like Fragments were increasing yearly. So far, there were more than 51 000 Fragments, and she wasn't going to use them even now.

She was wondering how many would she have after a hundred years from now. Plus, with the ever increasing Providence, there was no need for her to rush things.

After all, 40% of 50 000 was 20 000, then 40% of 70 000 was 28 000. The pattern was obvious, the greater the initial value, the greater the increase per annum.

"But with how things are, it will still take us years to become a five star Empire. I don't want to become one by conquering more lands, I instead want to use the path of quality instead of quantity." She said to the man sitting before her.

David.

David frowned and looked at her in the eyes, then opened his mouth to speak, "Through Population, its way easier. With our strength, we can easily conquer more Regions and gain boundless people.

"That way, the World Will will recognize this place as a four star Empire." He said, still looking at her straight in the eyes. Then he continued,

"But that's not what you desire is it?" He sighed and took a sip of his coffee, then spat it out, "Fancy rubbish... Anyway, are you prepared to wait until 250 000 Deities are born? That's five hundred goddamn years of waiting!!!"

"What's the use though? Even if I use Population to ascend, we would still need to wait hundreds of years before we have enough Deities to truly become a four star Empire." Nia argued.

David smacked the table and countered, "A four star Empire can give birth to a thousand Deities per year. That's half the time it would take if you stay as a three star Empire.

"And not only that. Let's say, I eachbregion has a single Empire ruling over it, conquering ten regions is as good as increasing our Deities by hundreds of thousands. It's that simple to rely on Conquest."

Nia understood his argument and frowned. Understanding it didn't mean that she liked it though. She looked at him and smiled, the smile that Enigma thought was provocation.

"Let's make a bet." She said all of a sudden, causing David to frown in response, "What bet? You crazy old hag are at it again? I won't bet anything that's over the top though."

Nia ignored him and declared, "It's not. Stop being a baby. Within a hundred years, if I can make this place into a four star Empire through quality alone, I want to stay as the head... permanently."

People might not understand, but David knew what she meant, so he smiled and readily agreed. "You're on. If you lose, coronate someone into a Monarch and step down as a gardener."

"Deal." Both seniors shook hands with mischievous smiles, both heading towards their own residence.

Nia wasn't worried though. She knew that, in thirty years, she might have more than 1.2 billion Fragments. Imagine what she could do with them by then.

If Enigma claimed that a single one can transform a Saint and Half-Deity into a Lesser Deity with a 100% chance of success, with higher Divine power than their peers.

The possibilities were endless!!!

? ? ? ? ?

Time went by quickly once again, three months flashed by and Enigma was done waiting.

Allen and Su Han still showed no signs of returning, thus he decided to do something as well. Unfortunately, either than taking care of little Jue with Bella, he had nothing to do.

His rematch had to wait, as now was not a good opportunity to strike. Plus, he would still lose even with Greater Divinities. Plus, Allen and Su Han had to also gauge their target opponents first.

So the past three months, he was forced to do something else. Of course, he didn't dare to comprehend any sort of Skills or the likes at all. He had more than enough.

Instead, he played with something else, the three weapons he had. Without names, they didn't have any artifact spirits or abilities, so he reluctantly named them.

And he recieved two Lost-grade Divine Artifacts. And since he didn't have any comparison, he wasn't sure if they were great or not.

[Will of The Emperor, Serenity]

[Grade: Lost]

[Description: A pair of gauntlets manifested by a young God, using his Will, Divinity and Essence alone. This is a pair of gauntlets that decide who will Ascend The Emperor's Throne, The Keys of Changing Fate, The Purest Artifact, A Weapon of Mankind, The Author's Pen]

[Special Effects: +100% to all Stats]

[Divine Ability: Emperor's Will(Passive) - With every death you implement, Serenity will absorb the opponent's soul and bestow you one of their Favored skills (Works on Demigods and above). Every being killed has their will duplicated, and added onto yours to strengthen your Will]

[Divine Ability: Serenity(Active) - Can wipe out the consciousness of any being regardless of realm and make them enter a momentary trance. The stronger the opponent, the shorter the duration. Or you can choose to give oneself pure Serenity, not affected by any sort of external ailments or effects]

[Divine Ability: Author's Providence(Active) - Powerful ability of Fate. Requires 100% of the user's Stamina, Energy, Reiki and other sources of power to once Defy and rewrite Fate, under the baner of the Sixteen Supreme Rules. They can also rewrite their deaths or their life. Cooldown: A thousand years for Origin Beings (Double per realm lower and divides by two per realm higher) Note: As the God of Fate, with a Peak Advanced Law, the cost is reduced by 25%, and the cost by 50%)]

Nevermind what he said, this was literally just a cheat. All of these skills were Defying type skills, that are well suited for Protagonists. And Supreme Rules?

What were those? So.ething beyond Nascent Rules? And was it something that Supreme Gods would use? Supreme power, for Supreme Gods? He thought to himself.

Imagine if he killed a hundred Gods, that was one hundred extra Divine skills. And a hundred Divine Wills, and even the weakest Will of an Outer God was beyond a Reality.

Then imagine if he met a point in time where everything is destroyed, he could just rewrite that portion of time. Regardless of who destroyed everything. 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

This pair of elegant white gloves, defied common sense itself. And worst of all, they didn't look cool at all, just your ordinary elegant white gloves.

And this was just one of the weapons, the second one left him in so much shock that he hurriedly thought they would be too dangerous in his hands, and thus he... gave it away the moment it gained consciousness.

[Immeasurable Emptiness, Khaos]

[Grade: Lost]

[Description: An arttifact born out of the Manifestation of pure Chaos and Abnormality. The Gaping Chaos, Twine of Insanity, The Negative Force, Zenith Chaos, and The Uncommon One]

[Special Effects: +100% to all Stats]

[Divine Ability: Collapsing Numbers(Active) - Manifest an unknown power to affect any being you touch first to be reduced to zero (A state of being vulnerable. If they never had a vulnerable side, reduces them to the state they themself consider to be the absolute weakest)]

[Divine Ability: Cosmic Physiology: Chaos(Passive) - Grants one the Cosmic body of Chaos to become a Cosmic God. Unlike their variant types such as Origin Gods, Cosmic Gods are formed out of their Divinity, having full control over it and transcend it to greater heights, being Messengers of the Greater Chaos]

[Divine Ability: Uncommon(Passive) - Allows its user to be unexpectedly uncommon, being able to do things they weren't expected to do, go into places they weren't expected to go or survive occasions that they werent expected to survive. Being a Hidden Gem through and through, and do the impossible]

Compared to the first weapon, this one was even more exaggerated. Enigma didnt hesitate to give it to Bella, who was also a chaotic being and a person he could trust as of now.

The main reason being because though it was frightening, it was useless to him. He could already do the impossible. And even two Omni-type Divine Skills.

He already had the Anti-God Divinity and it's effects, that had a better ability when it came to collapsing and destroying everything. And as for the Physique, honestly, it would only limit him... someone who had non-Cosmic type Laws. f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

Cosmic Laws such as Stars, Constellations, Moons, Sun etc. He had Fate, Tribulations etc, and did nit want to be limited to just Cosmic Laws. But then there was Bella... who fit everything perfectly well.

Of course, he claimed that it was a reward for taking care of little Jue. The deal was that she was to babysit him until he was all grown up at around sixteen (160 years) old.

She happily agreed and accepted the Demonic looking necklace, one that looked like it was forged from the Bottomless pits of the Abyss, then refined in Hell and was polished in Purgatory.

She didn't know that the shining Necklace on her neck was a Lost Divine artifact, so she happily wore it and played around with little Jue, who started calling her big sister.

Bella didn't dislike it and fell in love with this little boy. As if she could take him in as her own son right there and then.

Unfortunately, she could not.

"Bella, I'll be going into seclusion for a week or two, until then, take care of the little boy for me. Don't want him wandering off." Enigma said out of the blue.

Bella was surprised. After all, despite having two years of peace, wasn't there really anything for him to do? Was he so free? Or was the Empire afraid to give him commands?

"Hm. Take care." Bella didn't say anything else and smiled as she watched him go. Enigma returned a smile and was about to go back inside his room.
