Chapter 97: The First Divine Artifact
“The Heart of the Stars is the first Divine Artifact obtained by the Star God.”
The God of Theater spoke softly, “I didn’t expect the Star God to give away the Heart of the Stars this time.”
“Although the Heart of the Stars isn’t the most powerful or the highest-ranked among the Star God’s many Divine Artifacts,”
“it is definitely one of the most important to the Star God.”
“If it weren’t for the Heart of the Stars, the Star God probably wouldn’t be standing here safely.”
Su Wen responded, “Just as the Heart of the Stars once protected the Star God, perhaps by giving it to the Shadow God, the Star God intends for it to protect the Shadow God as well!”
The God of Theater nodded, “Perhaps that’s what the Star God is thinking!”
As they spoke, both fell silent.
Since the Star God gave the Shadow God the Heart of the Stars, shouldn’t they also give something?
Su Wen was fine; he had only become the God of Wealth a few days ago, and he was so broke that he only had that four hundred million dollars left in his account, unsure of what to give.
And that four hundred million dollars would probably run out quickly.
Being poor, he really didn’t have anything substantial to offer.
As for the God of Theater?
If he were to give the Shadow God a gift, should he also give something to the God of Wealth?
After all, the God of Wealth has just joined the organization; if gifts were given, they shouldn’t show favoritism.
Even if the God of Wealth didn’t mind, they still had to pay attention to this point.
“God of Wealth, is there anything you want?”
After a moment of silence, the God of Theater suddenly asked.
“Besides being short on money, I don’t really want anything.”
Su Wen chuckled, “Are you planning to gift me something, dear God of Theater?”
The God of Theater nodded, “Yes, I just realized that since you joined the organization, I haven’t given you a welcome gift. But since you don’t want anything, let’s postpone the welcome gift for now!”
“When you figure out what you want in the future, feel free to come and tell me.”
Su Wen’s eyes sparkled as he asked, “Anything I want?”
The God of Theater smiled and replied, “As long as it’s not too abnormal or too rare, I can generally get it.”
“Alright!”
Su Wen grinned and made a gesture of understanding.
Since the God of Theater said so, refusing again would be impolite, right?
Moreover, the God of Theater was so powerful, even stronger than the Star God; he was, presumably, the strongest being Su Wen had met and likely the pinnacle among the fate bearers of Huaxia.
For such a strong figure, getting what he wanted wouldn’t be a big deal, right?
“In a couple of days, when the news about the Body Refinement Method is released by America, I will contact the God of Magic and have that old fellow come over.”
The God of Theater said, “That old fellow is practically a king without a crown in Britain.”
“He makes decisions that no force in Britain dares to oppose.”
The God of Theater paused for a moment, then continued, “However, God of Wealth, I have a decent relationship with that old guy, and Britain’s economic power is far less than Merina’s.”
“Can you cut us a better deal?”
Su Wen nodded and said, “Sure! But what’s your expectation, God of Theater?”
“How about one billion pounds?”
“Deal!”
One billion pounds, based on the exchange rate, is about eight hundred billion Chinese Yuan.
Although it’s less than Merina’s three hundred billion, selling multiple times makes it reasonable to offer a discount.
Adjusting the selling price according to the country’s economic level makes sense, right?
You can’t sell it at the same price to a third-party country as you would to Merina, can you?
That would be unfair, wouldn’t it?
Being relatively fair also makes it easier to keep the profits flowing, doesn’t it?
And honestly, asking Britain for one billion pounds is already a hefty sum.
Compared to Merina’s five billion dollars, that one billion pounds will likely hit Britain even harder.
“Don’t worry; if Britain really can’t afford it, I’ll help you get the God of Magic’s spellbook,” the God of Theater said with a grin.
“Although it’s not a Divine Artifact, it contains all of the God of Magic’s spells, from low-tier to super-tier, and even some forbidden spells comparable to the Emperor Level.”
“With that spellbook, you’ll have some solid defense during your Arrow Realm exploration.”
Su Wen thought for a moment and said, “God of Theater, if you’re on good terms with the God of Magic, is it really okay for us to do this?”
“Why wouldn’t it be?” The God of Theater replied casually.
“That old guy has been the God of Magic for as long as I’ve been around.”
“Plus, since the God of Magic controls the elemental powers of heaven and earth, he knows a ton of spells, and he’s bound to rake in a lot during the Arrow Realm exploration.”
“Just from what I know about him, I can tell he’s loaded.”
“As the God of Wealth, if you don’t take advantage of him, who are you planning to take advantage of?”
“Trust me, his collection will keep you busy for a long time.”
As Su Wen listened to the God of Theater’s words, he found himself agreeing more and more.
If he was this broke while the God of Magic was rolling in it, wouldn’t that be a fair trade?
It’s a win-win; how could it be called taking advantage?
There’ll be plenty of chances to trade in the future!
Take it slow!
No rush!
“Mo Xiaosu, this is the God of Theater.”
After the Star God helped Mo Xiaosu work through her negative emotions, he introduced, “The one next to the God of Theater is your brother, the God of Wealth.”
“It’s because the God of Wealth foresaw the danger you might face and brought the God of Theater to save you.”
Mo Xiaosu cautiously approached the two, nervously saying, “Th-thank you, God of Theater, thank you, God of Wealth.”
The God of Theater smiled and said, “Mo Xiaosu, from now on, consider this place your home; we are all your family.”
Beside them, Su Wen nodded and added, “Yes, the God of Theater is right. From now on, this will be your home.”
“I promise you, no one will ever bully you again.”
The God of Theater said seriously, “If anyone dares to bully you, tell me, and I will handle it to your satisfaction.”
Su Wen continued to nod, saying, “Yes, we will all stand by your side.”
“Whoever messes with you, we’ll all take care of them together!”
“Exactly.”
“So, Mo Xiaosu, you need to learn to be happier and show more smiles on your face.”
“Indeed.”
“Can you stop copying the way I speak?”
The God of Theater raised an eyebrow and looked at Su Wen, saying, “Can’t you come up with something comforting to say to Mo Xiaosu on your own?”
Su Wen awkwardly smiled and replied, “Isn’t it true that what you said, God of Theater, makes a lot of sense? I totally agree.”
“Pfft~”
Seeing the expressions of the God of Theater and Su Wen, Mo Xiaosu couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
The God of Theater’s eyes brightened; their goal was to make Mo Xiaosu smile, wasn’t it?
Now that they had achieved their goal, did it matter how they got there?
Then the God of Theater shot a glance at Su Wen, who silently returned an understanding look.
They were working together!
He still had some skills in that area!
“You, God of Wealth, I really admire you. Did the words you just said add up to more than twenty?”
“……”
Soon, the playful banter between the God of Theater and Su Wen filled the office area.
Faintly, the clear laughter of the little girl echoed around them.
