"But then again, it’s the Star Empire’s incredible luck to have the protection of an Ancient Deity."
"However, it’s probably for the best that the Star Empire has an Ancient Deity. Otherwise, without a powerful superior overseeing things, the treaty between our two Empires could have beco worthless at any mont."
Another Giant Demon God couldn’t help but sigh.
"There are no ’what ifs’ in this world!"
"Without the Ancient Deity, the Dragon God, we never would have surrendered the Karte World in the first place, let alone allied with this Empire."
"So, everything you’re discussing is pointless."
"Besides, His Majesty, the Star Empire’s Dragon God, is acquainted with Dean Matty of the Research Institute. You could even say their relationship is quite good."
"Now, our own Emperor has even taken the initiative to foster closer ties with the Empire under the Dragon God’s command. No matter how you look at it, it’s impossible for our two civilizations to beco enemies."
"As for the future, the worst-case scenario is simply an alliance with a clear hierarchy."
"Furthermore, the Star Sea is vast. Having a powerful ally like the Star Empire, isn’t that also a strategic retreat and a powerful source of aid for our Tobien Empire?"
"I must say, whether it’s Dean Matty, His Majesty, or the Lord Pri Minister, their foresight is always admirable."
"..."
「On the Giant Demon Empire’s side, within a high-dinsional space sowhere in the Star Sea, ten Commander-in-Chief Deities from the Divine Council Hall were deep in discussion.」
However, a portal soon opened beside them.
Instantly, six powerful beings appeared!
And those who appeared were none other than the Pri Minister of the Giant Demon Empire, Main God Moridun.
Along with him were the five great Powerful Divine Power Deities from the five departnts of the Giant Demon Empire.
Among them was Matty, the Dean of the Giant Demon Empire’s Research Institute.
"Lord Pri Minister."
"Greetings, Your Majesty Moridun."
"Greetings, Ministers."
"..."
The ten Commander-in-Chief Deities all paid their respects to the six highest authorities of the Empire.
The six of them responded with slight nods.
"It’s almost ti."
"The information gathered by the Star Empire’s Vanguard Army has been confird. Now, we just wait for their arrival, and everything can officially begin."
Divine Matty said calmly to the surrounding deities, his gaze fixed on the terrifying scale of the fleet in the Star Sea.
"A barbaric, newborn world, and we already know of four Ancient Species Deities."
"And that’s just on the continent. There could be even more in the oceans. This is a truly rare opportunity!"
"If the opportunity arises, His Majesty will also make a move this ti. We must capture an Ancient Species. Only then can the ladder for our Empire’s ascent truly appear."
Main God Moridun looked at the other deities with a solemn expression as he spoke.
"So many Ancient Species... even if they are not the strongest of their kind, the ones who have truly fought their way to supremacy on their planet."
"But even a weaker Ancient Species is still an Ancient Species in the end."
"Their blood, their flesh, and their authority over Laws—these are all true treasures."
"The Empire has finally made a choice that is both rare and correct."
"With the Star Empire holding the line, even if this Barbaric Planet has a few individual Ancient Species whose strength far exceeds that of a Star God, they should be no match for the Dragon God."
"After all, one is an Ancient Species that has yet to leave its planet, while the other is a being who long ago ascended above the great sun."
Nasi Bell, the Powerful Divine Power Deity who served as the Minister of the Giant Demon Ministry of Internal Affairs, spoke up, a smile of anticipation on his face.
"Heh, it’s just a barbaric world. The Star Empire’s Dragon God might not even need to act."
"You all saw it before. The Star Empire now has an equally tyrannical Ancient Species, the Giant Serpent God."
"Although he is likely an Ancient Species that the Dragon God only recently subdued, judging by his physique and the terrifying aura of his Divine Power fluctuations, his strength is definitely far beyond that of the Ancient Species on the barbaric world."
Welling Jeffries, the Powerful Divine Power Deity who served as Minister of the Giant Demon Military, chid in with a light laugh.
Evidently, through their previous contact, the Giant Demon Empire had co to fully understand the Star Empire’s current power.
Therefore, upon learning that the Star Empire had gained another powerful Ancient Species, the Deities of the Giant Demon Empire were completely convinced.
This feeling stemd entirely from the imnse gap in power between them.
It was a gap so large it was difficult to even feel jealous anymore.
Because of this, the Giant Demon Gods had long since adjusted their mindset and felt fortunate that the Giant Demon Empire had allied with the Star Empire back then.
"The Giant Serpent God..."
"I really don’t know where the Star Empire’s Dragon God found him."
"But, that doesn’t matter anymore."
"The Giant Serpent God is already this terrifying, his aura far surpassing that of His Majesty, who is a Star God. One can only imagine how powerful the Dragon God must be now to have subdued such a terrifying being."
"To be honest, I still find it a bit strange."
"Back then, Dean Matty, how on earth did you get that powerful being to sign an alliance treaty with our Empire?"
At this, Julian Burke, the Powerful Divine Power Deity and Minister of the Giant Demon Empire Star Sea Exploration Departnt, couldn’t help but look at Matty with curiosity.
What could Matty say to that?
He could only sigh helplessly.
"I’ve said this many tis."
"When I first t him, his aura and strength had barely reached the Divine Tier."
"Besides, you all know the situation back then. We always assud he had an elder of the Ancient Species, at least at the Main God Level, backing him."
"But, it seems now that we were wrong from the very beginning."
"He was actually hiding his true power all along, though I don’t know why."
"But I’m sure it must be related to the war of the Ancient Deities."
"After all, according to the information from the Star Empire, he seems to have co from the... what was it... the Oakland Civilization."
"And as for the Oakland Civilization, we now know of at least two Main God Level beings from there."
"But, it seems they also take orders directly from this Dragon God."
"So, why would an Ancient Species who already has his own world establish an Empire in another one?"
"The inside story must be beyond our imagination. And I don’t think the Oakland Civilization is the Dragon God’s true birthplace either."
"Perhaps he was hiding from so terrifying enemy all this ti."
"The establishnt of the Star Empire on the Karte Continent might have been the power base he created after completely cutting off any possibility of his enemies finding him."
Speaking to this point, Divine Matty spread his hands and said:
"Of course, this is just my speculation."
"As for the actual situation, that’s not for us to know. After all, the Star Empire’s ’Divine Favored’ are a mystery in and of themselves."
"Prying into this secret could be enough to offend him. So, unless you have a death wish, I think this secret will remain one."
"Unless, of course, the Dragon God himself is willing to talk."
The Giant Demon Gods fell silent at his words.
’Are you kidding ?’
’Pry into the secrets of a terrifying Ancient Species who slumbers on the great sun?’
’Forget about whether we ourselves would perish; if we implicated the entire Giant Demon Empire, then we’d truly be finished.’
Besides, the gods of the Star Empire’s Pantheon were strangely guarded about these matters.
Just by seeing the attitude of the Star Empire’s gods, the Giant Demon Gods knew that this secret was definitely a taboo of the Dragon God.
So, even now, the Giant Demon Empire didn’t dare use any of its power to probe the group of Divine Favored from the Star Empire.
After all, the Giant Demon Empire was currently a beneficiary of the alliance.
They’d have to be out of their minds to investigate sothing so detrintal and useless to them.
「Just as the Giant Demon Gods fell silent, a Light Gate appeared in a high-dinsional space not far across the Star Sea.」
The next mont, more than ten streaks of light flashed past.
Finally, the representatives of the Star Empire’s deities appeared, led by the Storm Main God and supported by thirteen Powerful Divine Power Deities.
"They’re here!"
"Let’s go. We need to confirm the military deploynt with our allies as soon as possible."
"Also, we need to discuss the hunt for the Ancient Species. After all, we can’t leave the threat of all the Ancient Species for the Giant Serpent God to handle alone."
Main God Moridun looked into the distance with a solemn expression. The mont his words fell, he was already moving to greet the arrivals.
