The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God - #215 - 215 Virtual Lover
“Marry?”
“That’s right. You just need to elope with the one who put you into that position, and everything will be fine,” Ruilina nodded in confirmation.
Elysienne fell into thought as she processed what Ruliana had just said.
She just learned that the previous goddess of love had gone crazy.
As for how the previous goddess of love went crazy, she didn’t know.
However, marrying that bastard, Elysienne’s feelings were contradictory.
Her curse of love seems to be both yearning and hopeful.
Meanwhile, she couldn’t wait to kill the bastard who put her in this situation.
After a few minutes of thinking, Elysienne sighed.
“I wonder how I should proceed to marry that man?” Elysienne asked.
After all, she is still a God of the Divine Continent.
Elysienne can’t just marry off with a man from another continent as she pleases.
“This is easy; just give up your god’s authority and pursue the man,” Ruliana said emotionlessly.
“Give up my god’s authority?” Elysienne was speechless.
“That’s right. After all, how can a god marry a mortal?”
“Furthermore, you are marrying a man from another continent.”
“Carrying god authority without strength is like saying to the world ‘rob me.'”
Most of the new gods who ventured outside didn’t believe in this saying.
Venturing outside, they proudly carried their god’s authority, confident in their strength.
However, just after coming into the Chaotic Sea, a team of tier 8 god hunters was already on the watch.
God’s Authority is already equivalent to pseudo-ultimate treasure.
Such resources can be said to be coveted.
Especially among these tier 8 individuals.
Consuming a God’s authority could significantly increase their chances of ascending to the apex.
Unfortunately, gods aren’t fools.
Aside from regularly dealing with these God Hunters.
They also set a rule that one must leave one’s god’s authority in one’s domain before coming out of the continent.
After all, god authority is a non-renewable resource; once it is absorbed by others, it’s gone unless you kill the one who absorbed it and take it back.
Listening to Ruliana, Elysienne frowned.
“Does that mean I will no longer be a god?” She asked.
“No, it’s just temporary. It’s just storing your god authority in your domain.”
“This is just a preventive measure.”
“Although you’ll grow weaker without the god’s authority, you’ll have a perk of immortality,” Ruliana explained.
Gods are immortal, as long as their god’s authority isn’t destroyed; they are immortal.
“Is that so?” Elysienne nodded in relief.
She was just a new god, so these things were new to her.
In the decades since she became a god, she had been either managing her domain or studying her authority.
If it were not for all these troubles, she would not even come out of her domain.
After Elysienne talked more about the specifics to Ruliana, she exited the Council of God.
Coming back to her territory, she ordered most of her believers to be stationed in the Origin Domain and all over the Arcane Continent.
This would be her next base of operation, and she couldn’t let anything slip up.
As for the one guarding her god’s authority when she leaves it here, it was not necessary.
According to the god’s treaty, based on Ruliana, no god was allowed to steal a god’s authority that was unattended.
They could either fight it out or conspire against each other.
Blatant stealing was prohibited; otherwise, these gods wouldn’t come out of the continent at all.
And if they ever came out, they wouldn’t dare to leave their god authority aside.
With all of that, wouldn’t it mean that it would be cheaper for the other continent if they ever killed a god and looted the god’s authority?
Anyway, Elysienne was quite confident in the safety of her domain, so she only left a bare minimum of believers to manage it.
As her next base of operation, she would stay in the Origin Domain until she controlled the curse of love or became strong enough.
As for worrying about that bastard not marrying her?
Elysienne was still confident in her charm.
As a goddess of love, if she couldn’t even charm the man that she loved, wouldn’t she be the most useless god ever?
After leaving her god’s authority, she confidently left to travel to the Arcane Continent.
…
A few months later,
After Liam and Amara’s wedding, everything went back to normal.
Maximus conducted his daily training, experiments, overseeing his empire, and guild as usual.
He also constantly urged Liam to have a child, but unfortunately, his stubborn son didn’t want children for now.
Liam expressed his desire to enjoy their time as a couple for a while longer, to which Maximus just sneered.
After Amara absorbed the origin mana pool and regained her memory.
Maximus speculated that Liam might not even share the same bed as Amara.
By then, Liam could only cry hoping to coax Amara back.
Meanwhile, on the cursed continent, an undercurrent was brewing.
Secret alliances and exchanges began, and several ambitious emperors were secretly accumulating strength before the all-out war.
Maximus estimated that the true war would begin once a tier 8 emperor appeared.
Currently, it was still petty fights and alliances suppressing others in this race against ascension.
Maximus was aware of all this due to the micro-surveillance bot.
Unfortunately, it couldn’t still pass through the amalgamation of will.
His micro-surveillance bot had encountered a bottleneck.
Unless Maximus thoroughly studied the amalgamation of will, he couldn’t overcome it.
A year ago, he even invested over a hundred billion system points, but there was still no progress.
A month’s worth of accumulated system points just went to waste.
Maximus decided to set it aside for now and concentrate on another project.
And what was that project?
It involved a bunch of microbots for mining, harvesting, building, fighting, etc.
With almost an unlimited supply of Atomic God Metal that he can fully control, how could he not make use of its full potential?
While in deep thought, Maximus felt a large entourage approaching his manor.
“Who could it be?” Maximus wondered.
Opening the array formation, he was greeted by a group of women looking at him intently.
“What do you want?” Maximus asked, frowning.
Just now, he felt a trace of Liam’s breath to the leading person of this group.
With his sensitivity to energy, this breath seemed to be filled with love?
Anyway, Maximus also noticed that they were from the divine continent.
Now the question is, how could Liam’s breath still influence this person?
“I’m here to meet your son, Liam, for a discussion,” Elysienne said in a somewhat domineering and shy tone.
“He is not here. You should come back later,” Maximus shook his head.
Liam and the others were still in class and would return later.
“Can I wait inside?” Elysienne requested.
Truthfully, she already knew that Liam was still in class.
After all, she had her believers, looking at Liam 24/7.
Elysienne first came here to greet this difficult man that they couldn’t offend.
“Then come in,” Maximus said after some thought.
Feeling Liam’s breath in the girl, he thought she might be Liam’s mistress.
Thinking of that bastard son, who was already married and still wanted a mistress.
Maximus could only give a thumbs up.
“That’s my son, continue to kidnap girls and make our family prosperous,” Maximus cheered mentally.
As for being attracted to the girl, Maximus had none of that.
He had already passed that age of being attracted to beauties.
To him, they were all the same.
Furthermore, there were still two people he couldn’t get even now: Denice and Lilith.
Denice was such a shy cat, allowing herself to be touched but not making him responsible.
As for Lilith, if it weren’t for occasional chatting, Maximus would have thought she was already dead.
Apparently, she was still undergoing devil training from her sister.
Such a poor Lilith being bullied by her sister.
After taking them to the guest house, Maximus finally asked what had been brooding in his mind.
“So, what’s your relationship with Liam?”
“Uh-” Elysienne didn’t know how to answer for a while.
Should she say she was Liam’s virtual lover?
Without hesitation, Elysienne told everything – the curse of the zealous witch, the curse of love, the problems she encountered, why she had come here, etc.
Elysienne didn’t bother to hide anything.
As a core student, equivalent to a pseudo-high god, Elysienne knew that her information was within Maximus’s fingertips.
And it really was.
With Tintin around, it was equivalent to Maximus having a top intelligence organization.
All the information being transmitted within the Arcane Continent could be known by him.
He even sometimes used it to know what was happening all over the Etherium Realm.
“So, that’s it,” Maximus nodded after hearing Elysienne’s side of the story.
He could only be proud of his son for bagging another goddess from another continent.
Sometimes he wondered if Liam had a system to charm all these goddesses to himself.
