Chapter 963 - Grant You Godhood



Chapter 963 Grant You Godhood

“Shing! Shing! Shing! Shing!”

Green, red, blue, and yellow. Four Divine Swords were hovering about Aragon’s body. Although his body was excessively thin, he was giving off an intense aura, creating an indescribable sense of authority.

The Wind Divine Sword! The Fire Divine Sword! The Water Divine Sword! The Earth Divine Sword!

When Li Yi saw the four Divine Swords floating around Aragon, his shock was plastered all over his face.

“This can’t be…”

“Be careful, he was the one who killed us.” Qian’er warned.

“He insta-kills… Sigh, he caught me off guard.” BB East lay on the ground, still trying to look cool.

Out of the three corpses, only Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut remained silent. However, without her speaking, Li Yi could easily guess the rage that was building up inside her head.

Li Yi helplessly shook his head. “Should I call you Aragon? Or maybe you prefer Ruler of Gods?”

“Heh…”

Aragon did not answer. As he raised his hands up into the sky, the floating Ruler of Gods’ Armor instantly descended, landing in his hands.

Aragon looked at Li Yi and chuckled. “It’s all thanks to you that I can make my return.”

Aragon sighed as he started to reminisce. “Several thousand years ago, I’d managed to become the Emperor of the Continent, but back then, my memory of being the Ruler of Gods still had not returned to me. I did not know my true identity.

“Unfortunately, I wrongly believed in that idiot of a woman. That stupid Carulla, to think that she did not recognize me. She even ruined all the Divine Power that I had trained so hard to get. Hehe, having my appearance changed, having my power stripped away, and even being sent to the territory of the Demonic Tribes to be humiliated… All of this was because of that bloody idiot.”

“Shing! Shing! Shing! Shing!”

Aragon was enraged. The four Divine Swords started trembling as if they were ready to strike down their opponents at any moment.

“Dark Wing, I really have to thank you. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been able to get my resolve back. I wouldn’t even have been able to get my memory of being the Ruler of Gods back and return to Mount Pantheon once more. All of this… It’s your work.

“I’ve decided, my first decree when I return to my rightful place as the Ruler of Gods is to grant you Godhood. I want you to be my Divine General! The Divine General that stands under me as I rule over all the gods!”

Aragon asked Li Yi, “Do you accept?”

Li Yi smiled.

Aragon’s appearance truly came as a surprise to him. However, after thinking about it carefully, this legendary Emperor of the Continent had always seemed mysterious in all aspects, from their strength to their identity. There was not a single historical source that had recorded even a single part of their lives.

Li Yi smiled bitterly. “I had originally thought that Ghostly Walker was the reincarnation of the Ruler of Gods’ Soul, but never would I have thought that the reincarnation would be you…”

Even in his past life, Li Yi had always thought that Ghostly Walker’s identity was quite suspicious.

In his past life, the reason behind Ghostly Walker’s disappearance was a hotly debated topic amongst the forums for the game. Some speculated that he was a kid in real life and that he deleted his account in a fit of rage after being dumped by his girlfriend. Some said that he was actually gay and found himself a rich sugar daddy. There were even some who theorized that he was one of the beta testers from the Pantheon developers, so after the beta testing was finished, he naturally disappeared.

In a nutshell, there were thousands of conspiracy theories out there about Ghostly Walker’s disappearance. It was a topic that was often brought up by Pantheon players, even being debated after many years.

Li Yi had also remembered that, in his past life, just a day before the God Wars started, a mysterious player managed to ascend to Godhood. It caused quite a commotion as countless players started to guess the mysterious player’s identity. As the God Wars began, it became an even more trending topic, since whenever this player participated in an event, he would manage to snag first place without fail.

In his past life, The Mountain, who was ranked second in the entire world, also died at the hands of a mysterious player. Rumors at the time said that the opponent that The Mountain faced was none other than the player who had attained Godhood. In addition to that, some people even speculated that the same player who ascended to Godhood was actually Ghostly Walker.

Although The Mountain was standing right in front of him right now, the truths of his past life could no longer be investigated in his current life. Furthermore, with Aragon’s appearance, it had completely ripped Li Yi’s preconceptions to shreds.

‘Ghostly Walker wasn’t the Ruler of Gods, Aragon was!’

“Let me ask you once more, will you be my Divine General?”

“Shing! Shing! Shing! Shing!”

The speed of the four Divine Swords’ orbiting started to get faster and faster.

The true power of the Wind, Fire, Earth, and Water Divine Swords was something Li Yi knew better than anyone. He had spent so much effort just to barely absorb some Divine Power from the four Divine Swords and channeling it into the Sealing Sword.

The difference between an original and a rip-off was obviously quite big. Before the four Divine Swords even started to attack, Li Yi could already feel an indescribable pressure directed his way.

Li Yi smiled. “Great Original Ruler of Gods, aren’t you opposed to the creation of new gods? Why would you want me as your Divine General?”

Aragon grinned slightly. “You are different from the others. You have helped me, so, I’m going to make an exception just this once!”

“Then what about the others? What are all my friends beside me supposed to do?”

Li Yi pointed over to the three corpses on the ground.

A glint of hatred flashed up in Aragon’s eyes. “These ant-like pests… Only after I’ve completely wiped them out will this world be able to return to its pure state.”

“In other words, you still want to end the world? As he spoke, Li Yi started to raise his Orange Quality Bow.

Aragon’s tone stayed firm. “The end of the world must be done!”

“I’ll become a Divine General, but if all my friends can’t become gods… I really can’t accept that.”

Li Yi waved his hand and summoned Dolly over. At the same time, he messaged The Mountain, asking him to prepare to attack.

“Attack and don’t hold back, we need to make use of every moment to destroy him… We don’t have much more time.”

“Understood!” The Mountain grasped onto his Orange Quality Quarterstaff tightly.

“After becoming a Divine General, you shall finally escape the mortal realm. Even in the realm of the gods, all gods shall obey your orders. Are you really going to give this kind of authority up?” Aragon seemed to hold Li Yi in very high regard. He was trying to peacefully negotiate with him after all. In contrast, the three corpses on the ground was all his doing. Strong players like Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut, BB East, and Qian’er were all done in by a single one of his attacks.

He was neither wielding the Ruler of Gods’ Staff nor wearing the Ruler of Gods’ Armor, but Li Yi knew that, with just the four Divine Swords floating above him, Li Yi did not stand a chance against him in an actual fight.

Ascending to Godhood was nice, but how could Li Yi choose to abandon his friends? If he really did that, what was the difference between his current and past lives?

“Dark Wing, my patience is waning. I hope that you will give me an answer before I change my mind. I shall give you one more minute to think this through.”

With a snap of his fingers, Aragon materialized a 60-second timer above Li Yi’s head.

“If you still do not give me an answer by the time one minute is up, then I shall grant you death!”

“Attack!”

As Aragon was distracted, Li Yi roared out loudly. Using a Water Clone, he turned into a Lightning Leopard and started unleashing tens of thousands of lightning bolts at Aragon.

“Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt!”

Countless crimson red lightning bolts blasted the defenseless Aragon…
