A promise

"Indeed, you are right about that. My leader did tell me a few about gods and so on." Was my reply to the demonic goddess.

Not going to lie, but my reply sounded quite pleasant for my ears to hear, as I had quite the lovely sounding feminine voice. Hehe… Now that I think about it. Is there doppleganger of mine in this world? A female version of mine? Oh my~ Will she be as gorgeous as me, perhaps?

Isn't that incest though?

Hmm…

I doubt it…

Cough Cough

Back to the main subject!

So, the goddess decided to continue the conversation by going back to the annoying subject of how I knew about true gods.

"But she didn't tell you about true gods…" Was what the D goddess said.

D as in demonic. Not her breast size. I just don't want to say demonic goddess all the time. It's just too much wording.

"Uhm… No…"

"Then, how do you know about them?" The D goddess seemed to be very demanded to know.

"I can tell you, but I want my share of your abilities to be fully owned by me. I want to be the one to decide for the rules and so on."

The first step to my plan was complete.

The custom request for her bloodline gift, which will rob her pu- powers dry…

If everything goes as planned, I'll certainly make a huge profit from this sad encounter. It won't be sad anymore if everything succeeds though. Hahaha!

"Very well. Here are all of my shares of abilities. You can pick one, and I'll lend it to you whenever you long for it. Do remember, you can only carry as much power as your body is able to facilitate." The demonic goddess said to me, and while she did that, the human sized cards appeared in front of me with each an illustration and description of a skill.

Although the description of the skills were short and simple, the illustration was lively and vivid. Each card showed a illustrated video of me using the described power, and they all sure did look badass. For sure I was tempted to pick at least one of them, however, that wasn't a part of my plan, hence why, I stopped looking at them after I had my joy of a quick glance.

A skill similar to the cloning skill that Laili had used before. A skill to have an ethereal body. And lastly, from what I was barely able to finish reading, a skill to create any kind of weapons with the use of shadows.

All those skills were useful and amazing in many ways, but still… They won't be as useful as what I might achieve in the future with the plan that I am going with right now.

"Useless." Was what I said after my glance at the third card. My voice sounded a bit cold and disappointed, and from the way I spun my eyes after saying my word, I looked nothing too different from a spoiled emo girl.

"You dare." Obviously, the goddess became a bit outraged after hearing my words.

A mortal despising the skill that a god has in their arsenal? The goddess had all the right to be furious. That's why, I was quick to rephrase my words . Who knows… She might just chop my head off again, which means that I'll have to do the trial all over again. That is, if I get to do it again for a third time. Even if I can, who's to say that my head wouldn't get chopped off the second I enter the goddess's sight again.

Never underestimate how much the anger of a powerful figure can affect you!

"It's useless because I don't want them. I want something else instead." I explained, better than before. My spoiled look was no longer there as I spoke my words of correction, and instead, it was a look of resolute that I had.

"Oh." The D goddess was a bit surprised by my words. Her looks of surprise was quick to change however, as it became one of interest within the second after her surprise.

"Tell me then. What is it that you truly want?" She continued. Whilst continuing, she made sure to circle around my body as well, as if I was some kind of baby that was about to say its first word.

"You."

"Sorry, no." She was quick to reject.

Ouch, my fragile heart…

"You know that I can not enter any worlds. I can not join your travels, because if that was possible, there would've been multiple wars between gods already, in your world." The D goddess went on to explain when she saw my broken looks.

Of course, the sad and broken looks was all a facade. I wasn't intending what she said, and actually meant to say that I wanted her, as her lifeforce or something. Well, sure it wouldn't be bad to have her by my side as well, but, I already knew that that was in fact, impossible.

"No No No. Why would I want to travel with someone who I can not trust and see? I'm not dumb you know…" I straight up told the demonic goddess.

Perhaps my words might have offended her, perhaps not.

I certainly hope not, because what I said were basically all true…

"I want you, as in, I want you to give me all that godly energy of yours. Like PP energy, I want to absorb your powers using crystals that can be used as currencies as well. I want to cultivate the power that you share to me, into a power of my own. Provide me with all the crystals necessary for me to have the potential to become a god. Power, and wealth... Isn't that what rules a world?"

My request was quite absurd, and I knew there was a low chance of it being accepted as well.

A low chance doesn't mean no chance though…

Hehehe…

With the way how scheming the demonic gods are, just like the syndicate Leader had told me before, I'm certain that this goddess will have a scheming plan in mind, which she will not tell me about.

Well, guess what miss goddess… I won't be telling you about my schemes as well!

Hahaha!
