The item I took before was raised slowly while I moved my chariot closer to it. And once I got close enough, I threw it to fall heavily over its body.

“Damn! Damn! Not this again! Damn you human! I won’t let you live in peace! I’ll come and kill you with my two hands! Do you think your god can protect you from me? That damn weak Sith! Useless just like you!”

For a moment, the voice changed, and it became hoarse. I didn’t recognise it at first, but from its words, I got a clue about who he was.

“Oh, so you were hiding inside it all this time? Or are you taking their bodies as your home?”

It was none but the god I met before. The one who controlled Lily or the second one who controlled Legend… It didn’t make a difference which one it was. I knew it was one of those gods, and he was really mad!

What I threw was my scissors. Once they hit that beast, the blade penetrated its body and gushed lots of blood out.

“Ahh! I won’t leave! Not even if you ripped its body apart! I will remain here until either you or it die!”

Oh! So he wasn’t caring at all about this beast as expected. “Fine, come inside then,” I answered such a move with a simple touch over its body, “come inside. In my shadow world, you won’t have a saying there. You will watch while your soul will be eaten slowly, turned into part of my power.”

“No! Let me go, you maniac! Let me go now!”

I didn’t get out my scissors, and even let them vanish with the collosal body of that beast.

What caused all this torture for this god? It was the dark energy from my shadow world.

If he was so vulnerable to it, then the best way was to let him suffer more inside. I didn’t let that beast in my shadow world for a long time, and yet it showed such remarkable change.

So I planned to leave it inside my shadow world for a long time. I got the answer I wanted. That beast still had a connection with these dirty gods.

But why was that dude screaming like a little girl? Was his soul really connected with the beast or was his body inside it?

Many mysteries were related to this issue, and the worst thing was that no one had a clue about it from my people.

Only by asking a king of the Hectors, a real king, would I be able to get answers.

As I got done with this beast for now, I shifted my attention towards the lizard.

It took me another hour to finish the summoning technique. I waited on the side for the technique to get completed and open that portal for me.

“I want to rest, take a long nap,” I muttered while taking a few bites of a piece of meat before drinking water from my liquor.

I thought about having a good rest after dealing with this lizard. After that, I’d enter into a long session of cultivation.

I was more curious about my shadow world than ever before. I had to go into places I never visited there, and try to unveil mysteries about my world.

I got that it was connected to the endless universe wide dark world. But I didn’t know how the two were connected.

Was there anything I could gain by venturing into my shadow world or the big world beyond? I didn’t know, but hoped for that to be true.

“Oh, that dude…” Once the portal appeared, a similar scene of black fog emerged. It wasn’t lesser than that beast of the Hector race in terms of size and devastation it caused when it appeared.

I moved my chariot high in the air, waiting for that bastard to come and roar or attack like the other beast did.

However…

“Are you the generous and venerable being who gave me this priceless chance?”

Unlike what I expected, that lizard appeared and stopped in its place, not moving a finger or breaking more mountains.

For five minutes it was shrouded in the fog until the fog was cleared and its full body appeared.

Well… Compared to the other beast, this one didn’t show any change in regard to its body size. Yet its scales, wings, and even its eyes changed.

All showed a tinge of dark blue colour, mixed with dark red and that lizard showed a fierce appearance without the need to move a muscle.

Its wings doubled, and they looked far sturdier and thicker than the ones I cleaved before and burnt using my attacks.

It showed weird spear-like protrusions all over its body, reminding me of the tentacles that little turtle showed before.

It even got hair on its head!

“I’m Hye, your new lord…” I paused while taking my time inspecting this beast, “can you speak now?”

From what I’d recall, when I fought this lizard it only kept roaring and didn’t speak a single word.

“Thanks to the lord’s generosity, the world you left me at cleansed much of my bloodline impurities, ending up evolving like this.”

“Cleansing bloodline?” my eyes narrowed. This was the first time for me to know about such scary abilities in my shadow world.

“Indeed, my bloodline was low and not enough for me to allow me to speak! But thanks to that world, it started cleansing my bloodline, elevating it, and clearing any impurities there.”

“Aha, I see…” a thought flashed through my mind in a moment, with a realisation of what was going on with that Hector guardian beast.

I never expected the relation between such beasts and their gods would reach deep down to the bloodline level! If so, then it explained a lot of what happened before.

So these gods and these beasts shared the same origin! It wasn’t the Hectors who shared such a link, but the gods!
