Chapter 1793: More Pressing Matter.
There are other benefits, none of which she has enjoyed because she has been the only one in her Pantheon. So she is not losing much by giving up on it. What she cares about more than her Pantheon is the ability to acquire a domain. It is after all what every god came to this world to acquire. If she can't get it, then she is willing to lose her last Oracle now and try to find another means of survival.
Legion considered the question and replied, "You can become a domain god anytime you want. The 9 Crowns won't ask you to limit your growth. But you have to tell him when you acquire information about a domain and you have to sell any extra domain you have to him."Nôv(el)B\\jnn
She replied, "Alright. I have disbanded my Pantheon. I will await the 9 Crowns request to join his Pantheon."
Their faces fell as they said, "Don't lie to us. You haven't disbanded your Pantheon."
She insisted, "I have."
One of the avatars said, "We have our methods to know if you have disbanded your Pantheon or not. So we know that you are lying to us. But we will give you another chance. You have 5 seconds. You either disband your Pantheon or we kill you now. We don't have time to waste with you."
She thought that the 9 Crowns was dead, so she was hoping to bluff his helpers. After all, if he is dead, then there is no way for him to send the request to her. Only if he is alive would he receive the notification that she is already in a Pantheon anytime he sends the request to her.
Now she doesn't know what to think. She suspects that these two are bluffing her. It is either that or the 9 Crowns is still alive. She thinks the latter is unlikely, but it will explain why the golden spear hadn't returned after it was thrown.
She decided not to take the risk and disbanded her Pantheon immediately. She was hesitant because it had cost her 10,000 divinity to create it. That is a lot of divinity to lose at once, but she had to let it go. It was better to lose that than her Oracle.
She was surprised when she got the request to join the Apocalypse Pantheon immediately. Her face fell when she saw it. She didn't know what to think.
She thought to herself, "How is he not dead? Did Crystal Hoard lie to me? But for what?"
One of the clones urged her, "What are you waiting for? We don't have all day."
That question jarred her from her thoughts. She accepted the request and became a subordinate god of the 9 Crowns.
The two of them knew immediately she agreed. They nodded and said to her, "Continue your work here. Keep these Oracles hostage. But let their gods become true gods as soon as possible and join the Apocalypse Pantheon."
Then they turned and left. It is the best that they can do, even though they want to do more. They want to punish the traitor for betraying them, but unless they can meet him in the void universe, they will have to be content with making things difficult for him and Tempest in other subtle ways.
They messaged the traitor privately and assured him that they would keep to their promise. They didn't lie about that. His Oracle has indeed been freed by Tempest. Now he is a free god.
According to the divine contract, he hasn't betrayed them. That means they have to fulfill their own side of the bargain, which is to free his Oracle from Tempest. But the Oracle didn't say anything about coercing him to join their Pantheon or making things difficult for him after he has done that.
They can have fun by telling Tempest to try and wipe out his religion after she lets go of his Oracle. That way the two traitors can make things difficult for each other in God's Domain while being friends in the void universe.
They don't have to do much to make his situation worse than a kidnapped Oracle. Unfortunately, they don't care about the pleasure they can gain from torturing him as much as the power they can gain from him. So they will settle witl stealing his believers while he has to watch as their subordinate.
In the meantime, the two avatars joined up with the four other avatars that were hiding in wait. They disabled their avatars and remade them in their territory. Then they went on to harass the two true gods on the right side of their territory.
Those true gods have been able to resist all along because only one avatar came to trouble them and they could reinforce each other quickly as they are in the same Pantheon. But Legion is going all out now.
They don't want to waste time anymore. Either those gods become their surbodinates or they can lose their Oracles, priests, and believers in droves. They don't intend to waste words, time, and divine energy to persuade the two of them anymore. Besides, they have something else that is very important and difficult to deal with right now.
---In The Divine Realm.
Legion-9 was keeping down the golden spear. It wants to fly away either to wreck havoc or return to its master, but they are restricting its freedom.
It is not an easy job at all. It has only been a minute, but they have spent 6,000 divine energy on keeping it still. It costs them 100 divine energy every second to keep it captured. So one might say that even though it is not moving, it is slowly killing Legion-9.
He has a little over 10,000 divine energy, so he can keep it still for 100 seconds or 1 minute 40 seconds before he has to let it go or die trying. Even with the help of the other clones, the best they can do is 14 minutes before the spear kills them all.
