One couldn't help but marvel at Galacta's incredible appetite; with Rimuru's methods, activating the Tesseract released enough energy in an extremely short time to power New York City for at least ten years.
Yet, Galacta wasted none of it, swallowing it all down, seemingly still wanting more.
Finally somewhat full, Galacta looked at Rimuru, her eyes filled with little stars.
In her opinion, Rimuru was absolutely the best person in the World!
She had even thought about eating her, but instead of getting angry, she had treated her to a super feast.
In Galan's memory, this feast definitely ranked among the top ten.
However, Galacta's beautiful eyes immediately became filled with resentment again.
This meal was satisfying, but the cosmic tapeworm in her stomach had undoubtedly become pickier.
What would she do if Rimuru stopped feeding her in the future?
After eating her fill, Galacta's abilities were stronger than ever before.
Her efficiency in using cosmic consciousness had also increased by hundreds of times.
She knew Rimuru's identity and origin with perfect clarity.
She even understood some of the great feats Rimuru had accomplished in Jotunheim.
The King of Jötunheimr! He had just conquered the Nine Realms, and if her father had come and wasn't full, he probably, possibly, would have been taken down.
No wonder the energy contained within Rimuru's body was more than that of the entire Earth.
Thinking of this, Galan felt both ashamed and terrified!
However, Rimuru didn't seem to have any animosity towards her; she even seemed to have a good impression of her.
Galan looked at Rimuru curiously and asked, "Why are you so good to me?"
Hearing Galan's words, Rimuru couldn't help but laugh.
Treating her to a full meal was considered being good to her?
This girl was truly easy to satisfy!
Rimuru blinked her big eyes and said, "Because I also really love to eat, and being hungry doesn't feel good!"
Upon hearing Rimuru's answer, Galan's beautiful eyes immediately lit up, and she regarded Rimuru as a super kindred spirit.
She loved to eat too! So that was it, so that was it!
After a quick search with her cosmic consciousness and seeing Rimuru's food list, Galan was instantly dumbfounded.
The big bad Abomination, the Cyttorak red ruby, the supreme treasure of Jotunheim, the Casket of Ancient Winters, the supreme treasure of Muspelheim, the Eternal Flame, the former King of Muspelheim, Surtur, Mjolnir, the Mind Stone.
Oh my god, was this the diet of a big shot?
In an instant, Galan was utterly awestruck by Rimuru.
When it came to eating, the gap between her and Rimuru was simply too vast.
It was like the difference between heaven and Earth!
Her "snacks" were either alien viruses or small alien life forms; when she was truly starving, she even ate dirt to fill her stomach, but Rimuru...
Worship the big shot!
Worship the big shot!
Worship the big shot!
Seeing the look of infinite adoration in Galan's big eyes, Rimuru coughed, feeling a bit strange and somewhat elated!
"Galan, do you want to eat delicious food? I'll take you to eat all over the U.S.!"
In an instant, Galan's beautiful eyes turned into two hearts, and her drool flowed freely.
But then, Galan still hardened her heart and shook her head.
"No! If I taste those delicious foods, my diet and health plan will probably never be able to continue!"
"One broken rule will lead to more broken rules. By then, the entire Earth will suffer a great famine!"
Hearing Galan's words, Rimuru even felt a bit of admiration.
Just think of those dieters who always say "I'm fat, I'm fat" but can't control their mouths at all.
Wanting to lose weight or go on a diet is infinitely harder than imagined.
People are always very lenient with their own desires.
And Galan, who still had a cosmic tapeworm in her stomach, could strictly adhere to her "health and diet plan"; her willpower was truly admirable!
Rimuru unhesitatingly spoke her thoughts.
Hearing Rimuru's praise, Galan's cheeks turned rosy, like a ripe, large apple, exceptionally cute.
"Rimuru, my friend, please come to my home as a guest. Although there's not much good food, there are many interesting toys!"
Galan extended her most sincere invitation, and Rimuru had no reason to refuse.
Then, the two of them held hands and disappeared into this strange World.
Just as Rimuru and Galan were about to play, Kaecilius and a group of Dormammu zealots had also drawn enough power from the Dark Dimension.
Now, half of each person's face was almost covered in dark black.
The corners of their eyes were even flaking off like scales.
And none of them were aware of it!
At this moment, they had already been corrupted by Dormammu's dark power.
As they drew more and more power from the Dark Dimension, their fanaticism for Dormammu grew stronger.
New York Sanctum.
With a ripple, the spatial barrier surrounding the Sanctum was completely shattered.
And Kaecilius and the zealots immediately attacked the New York Sanctum.
The sorcerer guarding the Sanctum, a black man named Danny, wielded a black iron staff as thick as an arm.
"Kaecilius, you should know what you're doing!"
Half of Kaecilius's face was almost blackened, but he was exceptionally calm.
"I know you will die protecting the Sanctum!"
Kaecilius waved his hand, and all his followers immediately charged towards the Sanctum Guardians.
Dormammu's zealots had all more or less drawn power from the Dark Dimension, greatly increasing their strength.
How could these second-rate Sanctum Guardians be a match for these zealots?
After only a few minutes of fighting, the Sanctum Guardians lay scattered on the ground.
Even Danny, who was leading them, was stabbed through the heart by Kaecilius's magic sword.
However, at this moment, a magic portal appeared in the Sanctum.
The Ancient One, dressed in bright yellow sorcerer's robes, appeared, startling Kaecilius, who quickly led his subordinates to retreat.
But how could their movements be as fast as the Ancient One's?
Before they could retreat, layers of ripples appeared in the surrounding void.
Then, they were all swallowed by the Mirror Dimension.
Within the constantly rotating, folding, stretching, and contracting space, Kaecilius and the zealots were quickly routed by the Ancient One.
Even Kaecilius himself was bound by the Ancient One's magic whip.
Looking at his former master, Kaecilius mocked, "Ancient One, when I became your disciple, you promised me. You promised to broaden my horizons and help me save my wife and son. But year after year, year after year, you always procrastinated. Now I've done it myself!"
The Ancient One looked at Kaecilius and shook her head, saying, "Kaecilius, you have strayed. You have been misled and deceived by Dormammu!"
"Deceived?" Kaecilius sneered incessantly.
"Everything has its fate in life and Death; time will eventually end, the golden crow will perish; temperatures will plummet, and Earth will be destroyed. But in the Dark Space, nothing is controlled by time!"
"As long as we become a part of Dormammu, like many other Worlds, this World will no longer have Death. We will embrace Eternal life and find a beautiful and brilliant destination."
The Ancient One shook her head, "Kaecilius, your eyes have been blinded by Dormammu's deception. If you merge with Dormammu, will you still be yourself?"
Kaecilius looked at the Ancient One's forehead and sneered, "Ancient One, haven't you already tasted the beauty of the Dark Space's power? You yourself couldn't resist trying it, so what right do you have to criticize my actions?"
"Oh, no, there's also Rimuru. Haven't you both been savoring it? You who monopolize this permanent longevity, you who hide your secrets, are the greatest ambitionists in this World!"
The Ancient One shook her head: "Drawing power comes with a price; Dormammu is no philanthropist. He grants you power, but He will take everything from you, including the power He granted. To draw power from the Dark Dimension, ordinary people are not qualified enough."
However, at this moment, an incredibly disbelieving voice came.
"Master, is what Kaecilius said true? You and Junior Sister Rimuru have always been drawing power from the Dark Dimension?"
The Ancient One turned around, and what met her eyes was Mordo, retreating step by step, almost on the verge of collapse.
The Ancient One opened her mouth, wanting to explain something, but couldn't utter a word.
However, the next instant, the Ancient One felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, and then her whole body was kicked away.
When she saw the face of the person who had pierced her abdomen, the Ancient One felt even more disheartened.
For no other reason, this person was also an old acquaintance of hers.
More than 150 years ago, he was also her disciple, but during Dormammu's previous invasion, he was swayed by Dormammu.
He became a Mindless One!
She never expected to see him again!
In an instant, countless memories flooded her mind.
Looking at her disciple who had become a Mindless One, and Kaecilius, who was now constantly stepping into the dark abyss, the Ancient One felt dispirited.
Was it another boring cycle?
Forget it!
