"This silly kid." King chuckled to himself.
In reality, God had only just awakened and was searching for power based on instinct. If Warren had struggled with all his might now, he surely could have broken free, but the fear of God rooted deep in his heart made him not dare to resist at all.
"I... I am willing to offer up all my power. I hope God-sama can allow me to become your slave." Warren's eyes grew hazy.
As the Divine Power drained frantically, his consciousness became increasingly blurred.
"Go to sleep, baby, Daddy's rocking you gently."
As King hummed a song, Warren gradually closed his eyes, and his body began to slowly dissipate.
Once a God's agent loses their Divine Power, just like Homeless Emperor of the Monster Association back then, their end is to turn into ash.
"Woof woof!"
Just then, Rover's barking was heard. He rushed toward King at high speed, with a cursing Platinum Sperm dangling from his mouth.
"Holy crap! Rover, stop! If you want to die, don't take me with you!"
Platinum Sperm struggled frantically to break free, but he was forcibly dragged all the way there.
"Ahem!"
King coughed, and only then did Platinum Sperm notice the scene. He saw that Warren, who had been insufferably arrogant just a moment ago, had actually turned into ash.
"Master! It's so good that you're okay. I was worried to death. You have no idea, if Rover hadn't been holding my back leg just now, I would have killed him long ago. That kid got lucky, otherwise I wouldn't have let him off easy."
Platinum Sperm put on an air of righteous indignation. Rover lunged at him.
"Don't bite! Rover! I was wrong, I was wrong! Brother Rover, spare me!"
King ignored the monkey and dog's antics. At this moment, he could feel the Divine Core inside his body beginning to emit a faint glow.
"Where is this?"
"Oh, Toad, you're awake."
"It's you! You hateful human!"
Boom!
A terrifying aura erupted, but it was instantly suppressed. God discovered that its power seemed to be under some kind of restraint.
"What the hell is this?!" God was pale with shock.
Ever since its birth, even that supreme existence had never restrained its power.
"Your core has been fused, so I'll be counting on you from now on." King raised an eyebrow.
After the Talent Fusion System fused the Divine Core, it meant God was now firmly bound to the system. Of course, according to the system's domineering rules, it could wipe out God's consciousness at any time.
"This is impossible! I am a god!" God couldn't accept it for a moment.
Just as its energy was about to explode, its power was restrained again.
[Ding! Abnormal mental fluctuations detected. Erase?]
Buzz!
A beam of light enveloped the Divine Core, waiting for King's choice.
"This... what is this?!"
God's tone revealed fear amidst its shock. It could feel that this power could easily wipe it out.
"Its rules are above all else. If you don't submit, I can only wipe out your consciousness." King put on a look of regret.
This time the system had given him a great gift. This was a genuine god. Although its power wasn't at its peak now, it would recover sooner or later. If he could subdue it, he would not only gain an extremely strong combatant but could even learn the truth about the birth of gods.
The God of the 18th Galactic System had already set its sights on Earth. Its return is only a matter of time.
"Despicable human! I am a god! How could I yield to a lower-dimensional creature like you!" God roared in unwilling anger.
King could only shake his head in regret. "What a pity. If you could keep your consciousness and live, with my help, you might have been able to open up new galaxies and gain even greater power. I was also planning to join forces with you to devour other gods and seize more galaxies."
"Now this opportunity can only be left for someone else. System, prepare to erase God's consciousness."
King's words seemed to hit God's sore spot, and it hastily spoke to stop him.
"Wait! Kid, what did you say? Join forces with me?"
"Of course. We are currently in the 10th Galaxy. Only after coming here did I realize how barren the galaxy Earth is located in is. My goal is to seize the 10th Galaxy and destroy the God here. On this point, we should be in agreement."
Ever since the God of the 18th Galactic System descended upon Earth, King had guessed that the relationships between gods were likely not harmonious.
After all, when he was fighting the other party, the God on the moon never showed its face at all, and could even be said to be hiding. From this, it was highly likely that gods were competing for resources and might even devour each other.
"Is everything you said true?" God was somewhat tempted.
A miserable life is better than a good death. It had not been easy for it to develop to this day after its birth.
"Of course. Let's take the 10th Galaxy as our starting point and conquer the entire universe." King began to paint a grand vision.
In fact, he was quite confident in persuading God. After all, a god that could say 'I am a toad' just to escape a black hole must value its life very much.
"Hmph! I can temporarily cooperate with you, but you must first release the restrictions." God snorted.
The taste of living under someone else's roof was not pleasant, and it didn't want to be constantly restricted by King.
"You have no choice in this. Either cooperate with me, or I'll wipe you out right now. Since I can fuse with you, other gods will naturally be no exception. At worst, I'll just find another god later." King's face darkened.
It seemed this god hadn't figured out the situation yet.
"Fine. I will cooperate with you just this once."
Seeing the killing intent in King's eyes, God didn't dare to be arrogant anymore and temporarily agreed.
"That's more like it." King immediately beamed with joy.
Having a god as a teammate was something he wouldn't have even dared to imagine before.
As for safety, there was no need to worry. The system's rules were definitely superior to a god's. As long as he wished, he could wipe the other party out at any time.
However, thinking that the two would have a long-term cooperation in the future, King didn't make things too difficult for the other party on the surface.
"You just said this is the 10th Galaxy?"
"Yes. We arrived here after coming out of the Higher-dimensional Portal. Logically speaking, shouldn't we have reached the 18th Galaxy?" King asked the question that had been buried in his heart.
"The black hole's gravity was too strong. It's very likely it caused the portal to collapse midway. So it's not surprising no matter where we appeared." God explained calmly.
It had resigned itself to its fate, being able to survive a black hole was already a stroke of luck. Now it was merely hiding in King's body to recover for a while. Once its power returned to its peak, it would find a way to deal with him and that weird rule-based power.
"By the way, do you have a name? I can't keep calling you 'Hey,' can I?"
"You may call me the Supreme God or the Great Deity."
"System, prepare to forcibly erase consciousness."
"Ahem! Actually, I have another code name: 101."
