Chapter 159: No Comparison, No Happiness
“Gaul?”
The Star God furrowed his brows and said, “I remember Dark God; he awakened two years ago and is a follower of the God of Freedom.”
“I recall him because Dark God isn’t very brave and often gets beaten by the God of Frenzy from Germany.”
“He actually teamed up with the Arrow Realm in the future? And wants to enslave the Shadow God?”
Suddenly, the God of Theater chimed in, “It’s not impossible. Last time, I used the art of theater to mimic the Shadow God’s original power and sensed the terrifying hidden strength within him.”
“And that power, it connects with Dark God…”
As he spoke, the God of Theater suddenly paused.
Then he sharply raised his head, and the Theater World began to operate intensely.
“God of Theater, can Dark God actually devour the divine essence of the Shadow God?”
The Star God looked up and said, “It’s well known that the original essence within a fate bearer with the character ‘God’ surpasses everything, even the celestial laws.”
“And once a fate bearer with the character ‘God’ dies, their divine essence dissipates.”
“Didn’t the incident with the God of Martial Arts prove that the divine essence’s movement can’t be controlled?”
The God of Theater said softly, “Perhaps the Arrow Realm provided Dark God with a way to devour or assimilate the Shadow God’s essence.”
At this, the Star God’s expression hardened.
If fate bearers with the character ‘God’ can plunder each other’s essence, it would be disastrous.
Even the favorable situation on the human camp side could completely collapse because of this method.
“That’s absurd!”
“The two completely different divine essences are entirely opposed and incompatible.”
“While the dark essence and shadow essence might seem similar, they’re fundamentally different and can’t be compared.”
While pondering, the God of Theater looked at Su Wen and asked, “The undefeated Shadow Army you mentioned, is it a result of the Shadow God’s talent ability?”
Su Wen nodded slightly and replied, “If nothing goes wrong, it should be.”
“Buzz!”
“Buzz!”
“Buzz!”
“…”
The dense inscriptions of theater lit up at this moment, trembling violently.
Moments later, the God of Theater raised his right hand, and the Theater World instantly calmed.
“Phew…”
The God of Theater exhaled a breath of murky air and said, “The Arrow Realm is shielded by countless treasures; nothing can be determined there.”
“As for Dark God, let me take a look.”
“Gaul… the city of romance…”
“So you’re here, Dark God!”
As soon as the words were spoken, the Theater World suddenly expanded and then rapidly shrank, like a massive object breathing in and out clouds, performing some mysterious ritual.
“Boom!”
A dark light fell from the sky, and when it faded, a young man with blonde hair and blue eyes appeared in the Theater World.
Clearly, this was none other than the Dark God from Gaul.
“Où est-ce?”
The Dark God looked around, clearly confused.
“Kid, can you speak Chinese?”
The God of Theater asked the Dark God in a gentle tone.
Hearing this, the Star God couldn’t help but glance at the God of Theater. The tone was way softer than usual!
Sure, the God of Theater was always kind when talking to everyone, but this level of gentleness was something else entirely.
It seemed the God of Theater wasn’t planning to let the Dark God leave anytime soon!
“Je ne dirai pas chinois!”
The Dark God looked at the God of Theater and replied firmly.
The God of Theater raised an eyebrow and turned to give the Star God a meaningful look.
The Star God didn’t hesitate. “If you can speak Chinese, then speak. If not, we’ll send you to meet your maker.”
At that, the Dark God started coughing violently.
“Who… are you? How did I end up here?”
The Dark God gathered himself and managed to stammer out his question in broken Chinese.
“It’s nothing. I just wanted to take a closer look at your dark essence.”
The God of Theater smiled, then raised his right hand. In an instant, dozens of chains shot out and bound the Dark God tightly.
Nearby, Su Wen stared at the God of Theater, completely stunned.
He had thought that after hearing the news, the God of Theater would take him to Gaul.
Then they’d go on a rampage—killing, smashing, and having a grand old time!
Nine clans wiped out? No big deal!
What the Fighting God did in the sub-timelines, the God of Theater could easily do in the main Time and Space. It was just how things worked.
After all, hadn’t the God of Theater gone on a killing spree in Jiangsu and Zhejiang when he saved the Shadow God before?
But Su Wen hadn’t expected that this time, without even leaving the Theater World, the God of Theater could just summon someone directly.
Is this the power of the God of Theater?
He doesn’t even need to step outside to sense everything happening in the world?
That’s way too overpowered, isn’t it?
Isn’t Emperor Level strength just a bit too much?
As for the Dark God?
He figured he probably wouldn’t be able to leave the Theater World.
Just the act of bringing someone here couldn’t get out.
Otherwise, it would definitely cause a panic abroad.
Who would want to suddenly find themselves in someone else’s world while they’re just eating or sleeping?
“Star God, come take a look,” the God of Theater said. “I feel like the dark essence and shadow essence… seem kind of similar.”
“They don’t feel like two separate divine essences.”
“It’s more like they’re the same, kind of like how it is with the God of Wealth and Ao Xiu.”
Nearby, the Star God frowned and said, “But that doesn’t make sense. It’s normal for divine fate bearers to die and pass their divine positions to successors.”
“But splitting one divine essence into two and having both awaken as divine fate bearers at the same time… what’s that even supposed to mean?”
Su Wen watched as the Star God and the God of Theater went back and forth. One would suggest an idea, and the other would shoot it down.
Then they’d propose something else, only to reject it again…
Gradually, the conversation got filled with so much jargon that Su Wen could barely follow.
Right now, the God of Theater and the Star God clearly didn’t have time to explain all those technical terms to him, so he just stood there quietly, observing.
Not far away, Ao Xiu was staring at the Dark God with excitement.
Chains were coming from every direction, binding him tightly.
This guy, who was in the same line of work, was really in a rough spot!
Seeing the Dark God’s miserable state, Ao Xiu suddenly felt like his own situation wasn’t so bad after all.
Sure, he’d lost a Dragon Ball, but at least his life was still intact.
He’d overheard everything the God of Martial Arts had said earlier, and from his perspective, the Dark God’s chances of survival were slim.
Compared to that, Ao Xiu’s luck wasn’t half bad.
He had food, drinks, and someone to talk to.
That was way better than what the Dark God had going on.
Hmm… it’s true, isn’t it? Without comparison, there’s no happiness!
“Tsk!”
“Even though I’m not in a great spot myself, seeing someone else in an even worse situation… why do I feel a little schadenfreude?”
“Better him than me. I hope after the Dark God kicks the bucket, my luck turns around!”
Ao Xiu watched the Dark God’s pitiful state and silently prayed.
For some reason, he had a feeling that his future was looking pretty good.
