Chapter 1230 Honor Is In My Blood
Great Harvester was in a bad mood for being interrupted. But the words of the puny humanoid greatly satisfied his vanity.
Even though he was going to be a G.o.d, he wasn't a G.o.d yet. To be blunt, he didn't know how strong or weak he would be after taking his prize.
Sure, it was the marvelous creation of Ares tribe. But would something so miraculous really exist? Just eat a pill and become an omnipotent G.o.d? That sounded like bulls.h.i.+t
Harvester hoped not.
In the backdrop of his complicated thoughts, Varian's fanatic…loyalty, wors.h.i.+p and reverence were more pleasing than they should be.
"You." Harvester maintained a majestic expression outward but his tone was filled with pride and joy. "Submit to me fully. Devote everything and gain your place in the New Eden."
"Yes, My Lord! Praise the Great G.o.d!" Varian nodded frantically and raised his arms towards the sky. "Your strength sends us to the highest heaven, your wrath banishes us to the deepest h.e.l.l. Oh Lord! Mercy! Mercy!"
Maria, her colleagues as well as Hollow and Slaughter Shade watched on this ridiculous exchange with a dumbfounded expression.
…That's it?
He just believed his words? Was that it? No loyalty test?
"You were trying to kill the guardian earlier. Why? What grudge do you hold?" Harvester also calmed down from the joy of gaining his first devotee and asked in a sharp tone.
If it hadn't been a thousand years since he had a proper conversation, with his mind badly starved of any socialization, he would've asked this straight away.
Varian's smile hardened at his words and he glanced at the guardian with a hateful expression. "My lord…there is something I must confess first."
"Is it about your power?" Harvester asked, but his tone was rhetoric.
Obviously, he enjoyed playing the all-knowing G.o.d.
"As expected of the omniscient G.o.d, there's nothing hidden from your discerning eye!" Varian's face bloomed with a reverent smile.
If those cultists saw his expression, they'd prostrate in admiration. Even after decades of doing the actual job, it was very rare for anyone to show such expression. Much less as an act.
Not to discount the genuine cultists who worked to their bone for brainwas.h.i.+ng others, Varian at this moment was oozing with devotion. Even if a staunch atheist saw him, he'd wonder if this man really witnessed a G.o.d.
"Stop the flattery, get to the point." Harvester glanced at the royal heirs and the Jai spies with his senses and said.
Rather than this unknown n.o.body, he was more interested in these people. If they became his minions, he could use their positions to create perfect conditions to take down the Jai Empire and Alliance.
"I've found this box from a mysterious woman. With this box in possession, I can show combat power beyond my rank." Varian looked at the heirs and spies with a wary look as he confessed.
'Is that the reason for his peculiarity?' Maria and the rest couldn't help but think.
Sohan, Bella and the Jai spies believed his words. But for some reason, Maria felt it was odd. It all felt too…
"Hm, what is this? A treasure? A ma.s.s of life?" Harvester realized the box had a seal.
He couldn't immediately sense what was inside the box. His senses tingled a little in warning and he decided to check out if there's anything dangerous in the box.
Snap!
Varian's reverent eyes gleamed with a cold light.
Threads of black and white, woven from the power of order and chaos, hidden until now surfaced and broke.
Great Harvester tried to stop them. With his power, it should've been easy. But the sliver powers were on a fundamentally different level than him.
So, the broke cracked open in a flash and a huge phantom, as large as him emerged from the box.
It vaguely resembled a woman with long hair and eyes that twinkled like stars.
"P-Princess Eshala?" Harvester's voice cracked a little.
The phantom that was sealed for so long in Centaurus was released. It was still in a battle mode. The first thing she did was raise her hand to eliminate the biggest threat.
"No!"
A blinding light followed by a horrifying explosion sent everyone flying.
Varian who was already running away at full speed was caught up by the shockwaves.
He crashed onto the starry floor, rolled like a broken doll before coming to a halt. If he had been a little late, he'd have died.
He turned around and saw that the heirs were down. They used their treasures at the last moment and barely managed to survive. But they wouldn't be getting up anytime soon.
On the other hand, Slaughter Shade and Hollow acted in advance and managed to save themselves from major injuries.
Varian got away from the battle between Eshala's phantom and Harvester. He knew the result already.
Eshala's phantom was extremely powerful with time powers. Until she kept fighting, she wouldn't let Harvester do anything else. But she wouldn't win.
Harvester would be injured by then, but not down. He had to do something. No matter how injured, he couldn't take him down easily.
"Oh Well Of Exchanges," Varian yelled and then communicated with his spirit power. "Tell me a method to kill Harvester after he ends the phantom. The Price is the treasure called Toy Sun."
"I will…" Varian had no real treasures to give. He had his artifacts, the broken seed and the toy sun. That's it. The miscellaneous things wouldn't amount to much.
"Can I exchange my…a hundred years of my life?"
"A hundred and one?"
< '…' >
Varian racked his brain. The only thing he was ready to sacrifice was the broken seed.
But if he used it in solar system or even Hortus, the average aura would increase, strengthening the s.p.a.ce, making it resistant to destruction and improve the overall progress. He'd also get long-term benefits.
Varian took out the broken seed.
"Is this enough?"
He hesitated at that answer and turned back to the Jai spies.
"What if I put in their bodies and souls?"
"No worries."
Others would've panicked. But as long as it wasn't too much, Varian could easily climb back his rank.
What's more, the biggest issue from rank 3 Mystic to rank 4 Adept was the transition. He already knew how to do it. So, he could easily do it again. He'd just need some fight to get it done though.
As the blinding explosions from the fight of G.o.ds continued in the far distance, Varian sprinted to the Jai spies.
"You cowards! I can finally take revenge on you! I'll beat you to the ground and crush your bones." Varian's voice was filled with fury.
"Don't even think about winning us. Even in this condition, we're better than you." Slaughter Shade took out a long sword and sneered.
Hollow quietly raised a spear.
"You weaklings, take my attacKkkk—" who was sprinting towards them at full speed stomped his foot onto the floor.
One foot remained on the ground, one in the air, a metal box appeared in his right hand and with the running boost, he threw it with full force.
A mini-sun exploded in the middle of the two spies.
