Chương 17: Chapter 17
As they spoke, Jasmine and the goddess Loki watched from a few feet away. They held back the urge to intrude and assumed the role of silent spectators.
Naturally, they were drawn to Yue's strange race―a vampire? They had never heard of it, and she seemed to have lived for a long time. However, they also felt a certain pity for her terrible situation. Even Jasmine's cold heart could sympathize with her.
Nevertheless, when she heard Yue's request to that mysterious man, her lips pursed. Wasn't this girl afraid...?
Even Loki was shocked now. From the moment she arrived at this place, her sealed power, her Arcanum, was completely released. Her divinity as a goddess was at its peak. But she still could not see through Yuu. She wondered where they were, since this place did not resemble the Tenkai she knew.
The incredibly beautiful red-haired Loli also had an aura that didn't resemble that of a goddess, and she didn't seem to possess an Arcanum. Loki could sense that Jasmine was stronger than her!
On the other hand, Jasmine mistakenly believed that Yuu was a True God, so she certainly did not dare to show such insolence in front of a mysterious figure, and they just watched with interest what this man would do to Yue.
To the surprise of both onlookers, a soft laugh escaped Yuu's lips. It was a crystalline, amused laugh that echoed in the silence of the castle before he placed one hand under Yue's knee and the other on her back, then lifted her into his arms, princess style.
Jasmine and Loki blinked in disbelief, and in the brief moment their eyes closed and reopened, Yuu had already disappeared, only to reappear sitting on his throne with the tiny girl curled up in his lap.
"So, ladies, can you introduce yourselves?"
"This princess's name is... Jasmine. I come from Star God Realm."
The first to introduce herself was the red-haired loli, who stepped forward. She pondered for a few seconds, as if wondering if she should give her real name or not, before deciding on a fake one.
"Jasmine, huh?"
For some reason, Jasmine's body tensed as she sweated like a lamb about to be slaughtered. She seemed to sense that this man was looking into the depths of her soul. And he was right, as evidenced by what he said next:
"The Inheritor of the Heavenly Slaughter Star God, Xing Tong. Divine Master Realm Cultivation, 8th level. Not bad for a young girl of 13."
Yuu praised her like an old sage. But of course, he was just bragging. His knowledge of her didn't just come from reading the novel Against the Gods, but from touching her Destiny. At that moment, he saw her past, present, and even future. There was probably no one who knew her as well as Yuu.
Jasmine felt the sudden urge to punch Yuu in the head.
To say that an 8th level Divine Master Realm expert was "not bad"? Should have known that this cultivation level was quite high, she could practically be considered a powerful existence in the Realm of the Gods. Even 10th-level Divine Master Realm experts could be counted on the fingers of one hand! But for this man, it was just "not bad"?!
Jasmine's indignation grew. It seemed like this arrogant man was looking down on her. But she also felt a little fear. Someone who could see through her so easily was no ordinary person.
Jasmine swallowed her anger and decided to remain calm. She knew that a rash confrontation with this mysterious man would only get her into trouble.
Loki, who had been silent, finally stepped forward with a huge grin on her drunken face.
"My name is Loki. I come from Twighligh Manor."
A smile briefly appeared on Yuu's lips at the redhead's introduction, but quickly faded.
"I see. Tenkai's notorious trickster goddess. Though you are now in the mortal world, Genkai. To what do I owe this honor, great Loki?"
Though his tone was polite, there was a distinct sarcasm in his voice that made Loki frown. It seemed that this man had too thick a skin.
"It was you who brought us here." Loki was quite blunt. "Why did you do that? What is your purpose?"
Although she didn't say anything, Jasmine agreed. However, Yuu silently examined each girl, not rushing to answer Loki. It was as if he enjoyed the dense, dramatic silence. Just before the impatient goddess asked again, he finally spoke:
"Nothing in particular."
"Huh? Nothing?" Loki looked stunned. "I mean, you brought two rather small girls with you. Aren't you something of a... lolicon?"
She narrowed her eyes at Yue, who was sitting comfortably on Yuu's lap, as if she didn't want to interrupt and just enjoyed the caresses on her head.
Loki glanced sideways at the girl next to her. Jasmine was incredibly beautiful, her features surpassing even the goddesses of beauty. Despite her flawless appearance, she was actually quite young, and Loki was curious to see what dazzling beauty she would become as she grew older.
In fact, there was no denying that they were two Lolis.
Meanwhile, Yuu wondered what impression this goddess would have on him. It wasn't as if he had chosen who he would bring here. Anyway, he shrugged with a nonchalant gesture:
"I just experienced something else. But if you want to come back, you can ask me right now."
Hearing Yuu's casual tone, Jazmine let out a sigh of relief. She thought that someone who was able to stop time in the Primal Chaos Dimension and bring her here without her being able to resist must have some malicious intent. But this powerful man had given his word without any ulterior motives, so he would definitely keep it.
With her mind somewhat calmer, Jasmine was surprisingly in no hurry to ask to return. In fact, she felt anxious and perhaps even hopeful. Maybe this was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that would not be repeated.
As her mind registered these thoughts, she said in anticipation, "Senior, this experience is truly unforgettable... Since you are someone who sees everything, you must already know everything about me. I am seeking the power to avenge a loved one by defeating my enemies... I was wondering if... no, what should I do to transcend the Divine Master Realm and become a True God?"
Jasmine was usually quite cold, but this time the excitement was reflected in her voice, causing her to stammer a few times. It was an opportunity she didn't want to miss, no matter how ridiculous or desperate it might sound.
'Mmm...' Yuu hummed to himself as he thought about what to say to the girl.
At the same time, he lightly tapped the armrest of the throne. It seemed inappropriate for his guests to remain standing. As soon as the sound of his finger registered in the stunned eyes of Jasmine and Loki, a surprising change occurred.
In a matter of seconds, a long, magnificent antique table appeared, with elegant chairs symmetrically arranged on either side. Yuu's throne magically moved to stand at one end.
Before they knew it, Jasmine and Loki were sitting across from each other, next to Yuu's throne.
