Capítulo 3: Chapter 3

Asmodeus opened his eyes and was stunned for a moment when she saw the unfamiliar face. When she felt the connection between herself and him, her expression returned to indifference.

"The fifth descendant? Has he inherited everything from her?" she asked.

When she said this, she stood up and looked at the newly succeeded Tianli. At the same time, she noticed that her body felt more comfortable than ever before, and even the abyssal power that had been eating away at her had disappeared. This surprised her, but she was immediately relieved.

"The ability to purify the power of the abyss! No wonder she chose you directly."

"Well, I was right next to you as soon as I came to this world. Before I could recover, I became the new Law of Heaven. I was completely bound to the life and death of this world. I was also very helpless," Takumi sighed deeply and spread his hands. Although he was in a good mood at the moment, he still had to put on a show. After all, if you want to live a decent life, you have to add some drama.

"Since you have inherited everything from her and have the ability to purify the power of the abyss, the world will definitely be safe and sound," Asmodeus said, relaxing.

After dealing with the power of the abyss for thousands of years, no one except Phanes understood how difficult it was to deal with the abyss better than her. It was precisely because there was no way to deal with this power that Phanes had died gradually. If the new Tianli couldn't do anything about it, she would also die after Phanes.

"What I want is not for the world to be safe and sound. I want the world to be upgraded from a mere world to the only eternal world in the Quantum Sea," Takumi said, placing his hand on Asmodeus's shoulder, his expression confident and domineering.

Through the connection with the Seat of God in the "Human Realm Power System," he conveyed to her the information about his new heavenly ability and the upgrading of the Teyvat continent by annexing other worlds. Of course, he hid information about the system, packaging its power as his own.

Asmodeus was shocked when she received the information. It could annex everything in other worlds to make up for the shortcomings of the Teyvat continent and could infinitely evolve the world in such a domineering way. Not only that, but she also received information about the three worlds and the benefits that the Teyvat continent would gain after annexing them.

Asmodeus's golden eyes gradually turned from shock to fanaticism. As long as those three worlds were successfully annexed, most of the problems facing the Teyvat continent today could be solved, and it could still survive for 500,000 years. You must know that it had been less than 10,000 years since Phanes came to this world. To her, 500,000 years was no different from existing forever. The power of the new Tianli was simply too powerful. It far exceeded Phanes during her prime.

"Asmodeus, as the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, you should be considered my dependent, right?" Takumi brought back the white-haired, golden-eyed goddess who had fallen into a state of fanaticism. Seeing her enthusiasm, he realized he didn't need to say anything to make her his loyal follower.

"Yes, your will is my will. Please use me to your heart's content," Asmodeus replied, her gaze intense. The only thing on her mind was to follow her new master, become greater, and create a glorious future. The fact that Teyvat could welcome such a powerful new master was a blessing Phanes had accumulated over tens of thousands of lifetimes.

"Elaborate on how to use your power to my heart's content?" Takumi's eyes flickered as he scanned Asmodeus's flawless body with golden proportions.

"Huh?" Asmodeus looked confused.

"Ahem, I mean, the most important thing now is to call the seven rulers of the world to Sky Island for a meeting. Such a grand plan to annex the world must be completed by them," Takumi said, averting his gaze and coughing awkwardly. He wasn't a lustful ghost, after all. Asmodeus's beauty was unmatched, but there were more important things to focus on.

After finishing the conversation, Takumi and Asmodeus chatted privately about matters concerning the Law of Heaven and the trivial aspects of their relationship.

"I'll call them over right away," Asmodeus said, her expression instantly becoming serious. She wouldn't allow anyone to hinder the crucial plan of improving and upgrading Teyvat.

She knew that some of the seven rulers were duplicitous, and if they went against the will of heaven, she would replace them decisively.

"I'll handle the calling. The current plan doesn't require all the rulers to be summoned. Just follow me and follow my orders," Takumi quickly grabbed Asmodeus's arm, a cold sweat breaking out.

If she went and discovered the chaos caused by Sumeru, Fontaine, Snezhnaya, and Inazuma's rulers, she might become furious and kill someone on the spot.

"Yes," Asmodeus nodded. "Your will is my will."

Takumi contacted the upper ranks of the Seat of God through the "Human Realm Power System" to notify the Anemo Archon, Geo Archon, Electro Archon, and Hydro Archon to meet on Sky Island.

"Okay, before they come, I will rearrange the layout of Sky Island," Takumi said, smirking.

He knew that a summons from Tianli would definitely intimidate them. Even among the original seven rulers, only Morax had ever seen Phanes in person, and even Barbatos had never seen her directly. When the Demon God War ended and the divine thrones were distributed, it was Asmodeus who had overseen it.

The Heart of God, in fact, was not something rare. It was simply a tool used in the "Human Realm Power System" to absorb and store the power of faith and stabilize a nation's ley lines. Its main function was to replace Tianli in stabilizing ley lines when the Law of Heaven was seriously injured and unable to do so.

Now, as the new Tianli, Takumi could directly control the ley lines of Teyvat, making the Heart of God redundant. Although it could grant nearly endless faith energy and ley line energy, it was ultimately limited to a level barely comparable to a demon's power. For the Seven Archons, it was little more than a token symbolizing their victory in the Demon God War.

**Mondstadt - Angel's Share Tavern**

"Diluc, just one drink. I'll have one more today to soothe my sadness from saying goodbye to the Traveler. Please~" Venti, the green bard, clasped his hands together, pleading with the red-haired man silently polishing glasses at the bar.

"This is the third time you've used this excuse to drink for free, and every time you want the best wine," Diluc replied expressionlessly. If he hadn't known that the shameless bard before him was Barbatos, the Anemo Archon, he would have had him thrown out by the bartender.

"The last time, I swear. Please, Diluc~" Seeing that his usual trick wasn't working, Venti resorted to a more coquettish approach.

"..." Diluc's eyebrows knitted together, but he remained unmoved. Even the Anemo Archon couldn't expect to drink for free from Dawn Winery. If he set a precedent, he wouldn't be able to run his business.

"Hey~" Venti sighed in defeat, realizing he wouldn't get his way this time. Just as he was about to leave to perform for mora, his expression suddenly changed. His light blue eyes widened.

"No..."
