GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1779: Haughty Ignorance.

Legion didn't bother to argue with this strange god. She doesn't know their true identity and how they were responsible for killing tens of thousands of dragons and destroying their home plane in his realm. They are not going to tell her either because that would be exposing their identity in the void universe. As beings of great power, they know that information is power and can be used to track people. So they don't want to be baited into revealing their identity. Instead, they want to end this conversation as quickly as possible.

So Legion-1, "I will repeat for the last time. What do you want?"

She was bristling, but she forced herself to calm down. Even so, she still maintained an imperious tone as she spoke. "I have created a Pantheon. You should join it. It will be in your favor to do so."

She spoke as if she were doing them a favor. She thinks she is, but unfortunately, the 9 Crowns don't think she is doing them a favor.

They replied with haughty ignorance, "No thanks."

She almost lost her restraint then. Still, she continued, "You don't know what's good for you, so I will make it easy for you. Hand over your reward for being the first true god, and I will let this be bygones."

Legion-1 asked with genuine surprise, "Why would I do that?"

She explained to the dumb creature, "Because I can be a very terrible enemy. Since you have refused to be my ally, it would be in your best interest not to make me your enemy."

"So you are not even offering money?"

She said with pride, "My promise not to hunt you to the ends of the divine realm is priceless." A reply didn't come. The channel was broken because the other side switched it off.

Crystal Hoarder's ugly face became uglyr as she scowled. But she wasn't angry anymore. Instead, her eyes were twinkling as she thought about the conversation they just had.

"This 9 Crowns sounds confident and proud. It could be because his achievement has gotten to his head or because he truly has something to rely on. Either way, he is not going to give up his reward without a fight."

"But this is good too. The higher the resistance, the greater the pleasure of snatching treasure. Let the dance begin."

Her eyes narrowed in thought as she began to scheme.

She actually meant well when she asked the 9 Crowns to join her Pantheon. The 9 Crowns would have had to offer his reward to her to enter because it is a tradition she intends to enforce for every god that wants her protection. After all, her Pantheon was created so that she would be able to create the biggest hoard. So it wouldn't be extortion. It would just be a rite of passage.

But the 9 Crowns didn't know what was good for himself. Now she has to put in more effort to get what she wants. It is a bad decision that is clearly going to lead to stressful consequences for the two of them.

The first thing she did was announce a bounty for any information about the 9 Crowns through the communication system. Unfortunately, that didn't lead anywhere because no one knows who the 9 Crowns is, much less consider that they are 9 gods as one.

The main effect of that bounty was that it spurred the gods into action. Many of them wanted to earn the prize of divinity, so they put in a lot of effort into searching for the 9 Crowns. Unfortunately, as things are, their efforts might go to waste because the 9 Crowns haven't left the safety of their hotel since they became true gods.

The second thing the crystal hoarder did was try to expand her Pantheon so that she would gain more wealth and power to find and fight the 9 Crowns. Unfortunately, there were not many true gods around that could join or create a Pantheon.

She had to wait a long while for the population of true gods to increase. But the god seeds that became true gods were too proud to surbodinate themselves to her. This became extra difficult to do when she was asking for a treasure for them to join her Pantheon. So that plan was a bust.

Days turned into weeks. Weeks into months. And months into a year.

Nothing major happened in the divine realm apart from the occasional regional announcements about the various achievements of others. Many of the god seeds managed to

build their altar after a year, and many more succeeded in becoming gods.

The gods have become used to numerous announcements. But then a special announcement drew everyone's attention.

-Regional Announcement.

-4,000,000 god seeds have become Godlings.

-This marks the end of the trial period. freёwebnovel.com

-The Ancient Titans have sensed the growing threat of the gods and have begun to awaken from their slumber.

-Prepare yourself for their imminent attack.

This announcement caught the gods off guard. They don't even know who the ancient titans are, much less how to prepare for their attacks. Fortunately, they had the divine spirit of their various divine cities to inform and mobilize the gods for the resistance.

Gemmis sent a message to every god-king. Legion also received the notification because they had finally created a Pantheon.

-You have been invited to the Divine Council of Gemmis.

-This is the inaugural session of the Divine Council.

-Do you accept the invitation?

-Yes or No.

Anyone of the clones could accept it, but they decided to send only one. Legion-1 accepted it and disappeared from the hotel. He appeared in a large domed cathedral with walls lined with stairs that reached the top. The stairs extend into platforms with thrones on them.

Legion-1 appeared in one of the thrones. Other god-kings also appeared after he arrived. They were busy examining each other and checking out their competition. They did so openly and sometimes with hostile gazes.
