Chapter 84: Chapter 74: Under Certain Conditions, Deities Can Also Be Killed
Within the Gate World inside Fang Xiu’s house.
Everything was proceeding smoothly, just as Fang Xiu had thought.
The only difference was the addition of a corpse on the ground.
’Looks like I’ll need to hire someone to help guard this villa.’
To protect the secret of the Gate World, Fang Xiu considered hiring someone to guard the villa.
After all, he would still be going out and would still need to train in the Gate World.
This Gate World had no Demon Beasts, a beautiful environment, and abundant Spiritual Qi.
Fang Xiu didn’t want to report it.
’A great place like this should naturally be kept for myself.’
Using it for Cultivation would be twice as effective.
"Master, I’m sorry. I was the one who opened the French door and forgot to close it!"
Kajimi lowered her head and apologized.
From what Zheng Zhiyuan had just said, she could tell he had gotten in because the French door hadn’t been closed.
And it was because he got in that he discovered the Gate Passage and the Gate World.
Therefore, Kajimi felt that, in the end, it was all her fault.
"It’s okay. It’s not your fault. You were busy making breakfast back then, and I didn’t check the doors and windows when I left..."
Fang Xiu shook his head. "Of course, none of that matters. Someone with ulterior motives would find a way in, whether a window was left open or not!"
’It was all just an excuse from Zheng Zhiyuan anyway. The moment he discovered I wasn’t home, his malicious intentions must have surfaced.’
Otherwise, that French door didn’t face the main entrance.
He wouldn’t have found the unlocked door unless he had circled the entire villa.
’Where can I find some reliable security?’
One idea after another surfaced in Fang Xiu’s mind.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in his mind.
It was a girl!
The girl who had Awakened... the Teddy Beast Beastification!
’Zhong Yixuan? She might actually work!’
Fang Xiu recalled what the girl had said.
’It’s just to watch the house, not like I’m actually going to chain her up like a dog.’
The sense of smell of a Teddy Beast was much more acute than those of ordinary Professions.
’If she were here to guard the house, it should be fine.’
’Forget it, I’ll think about it later.’
Fang Xiu shook his head.
He pushed the thoughts to the back of his mind.
The light from the Sacrifice before him was already beginning to fade.
Fang Xiu was eager to see what wonderful item the Evil Dragon Fafnir would give him this time.
After all, the system had said that the Evil Dragon Fafnir would give him a generous reward this time.
As the light vanished, Fang Xiu finally saw a new item appear on the ground.
It was a chest.
"What’s this?"
Fang Xiu looked at the chest before him, somewhat curious.
This chest looked really big.
Fang Xiu had no idea what could be inside.
’But since it’s from Fafnir, it shouldn’t be too bad, right?’
Besides, Fang Xiu clearly remembered the system’s hint—the three words: "a generous reward."
After all, he had originally thought that this kind of reward might require... certain ’backdoor’ dealings.
’Good thing I trust that Fafnir isn’t that kind of dragon.’
Sure enough, after the Sacrifice, the resulting item looked incredibly impressive and sophisticated.
Previously, whether from the Goddess of Life, the Flower God, or others, the rewards had always come in a small box.
This time, the Evil Dragon Fafnir had actually given him such a large chest.
’The contents must be exceptionally good.’
Fang Xiu walked over and examined it carefully.
’This thing... how do I open it?’
At that moment, Fang Xiu was a bit puzzled.
The chest before him seemed to have no seams whatsoever.
If it didn’t look like a chest, Fang Xiu wouldn’t have even thought it was one.
With no lock and no seams, Fang Xiu had no idea where to even begin.
’Don’t tell me this chest itself is the Evil Dragon Fafnir’s "generous reward"?’
"Master, I know how to open it!"
Just as Fang Xiu was at a loss, Kajimi, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up.
"Oh? Then open it!"
Kajimi was a Succubus.
Being different from humans, she naturally knew more than he did.
Kajimi had also been ’redeemed’ by Fang Xiu from the Evil Dragon Fafnir.
And so was the chest before them.
So it made perfect sense that she could open this chest.
"This kind of chest was used by the Deities of the old era. To open it, you need a Spell!"
Kajimi explained.
"The old era?"
’Does that mean the Deities of today have entered a new era?’
"Yes. The Deities from that time all died in battle. Not many are left, only the Bright God and a few others. The rest of the Deities are all newly born!"
Kajimi nodded slightly.
She knew more about these matters than Fang Xiu.
’So even Deities can be killed!’
Fang Xiu had always thought that Deities were high and mighty, and immortal.
He never expected they could also die in battle.
"Under normal circumstances, Deities don’t die. But under special conditions, they can be killed!"
Kajimi added as an explanation.
"Special conditions? What kind of conditions?"
Fang Xiu grew even more curious.
What kind of conditions could possibly lead to the death of an otherwise unkillable Deity?
"Um... I don’t know about that. I only read in the ancient records of the Succubus Race that we cannot kill Deities. The only ones who can kill Deities are other Deities!"
Kajimi said after a moment of thought.
’Only Deities can kill other Deities? And it requires special conditions?’
Fang Xiu summarized the points.
’One must become a Deity to even be qualified to kill another Deity.’
’Or perhaps... only by becoming a Deity can one learn how to kill them?’
"I suppose so. I don’t really know. The Succubus Race has never produced a Deity!"
