章 289: Potential threat

Vlad and Jormungandr sat on the cold ground of the underground level of the Xaos Tower, taking deep breaths as they allowed themselves a brief moment of relaxation. Assimilation of pieces of the God's soul into Overlord had been an extremely taxing task, both mentally and physically. Even if the duo had bodies that neared those of Guardians and constitutions that were far more powerful than normal people, they still needed to rest.

The room still buzzed with residual energy, but Overlord remained silent, his focus directed toward the myriad tasks ahead. Although Dimitry and Jerom's souls had been integrated into his core, much experimentation and research remained before the A.I. Chip Clone could unlock and harness the divine abilities the two had wielded in life—abilities that had raised the Azarin Empire to the level of a superpower capable of challenging the Xaos Kingdom.
