Yes, I became a god just by exercising.

Chapter 37 "Your Excellency the Glutton"

If a newborn infant of the Titans' Starblood were given the blood, there is a chance that it would grant them a talent or ability inherited from their ancestral Titans.

Chief Giant himself was fortunate enough to eat one at birth, which granted him the innate ability "Eight-Sided Barrier".

In the past, Titan's Blood could be found in the mines of Dak Star from time to time, but in the last few hundred years, it has almost disappeared.

At one point, the price was even driven up to tens of thousands of gold pounds, the same price as the most recognized hard currency in the extraordinary world, namely the secret contract, and it was comparable to the extremely rare and precious high-level secret contracts.

Even so, it is still extremely difficult to obtain one.

Therefore, how could these giant royals not be excited when faced with this Titan's blood, especially with the imminent arrival of a newborn in their race?
Xia Fa hadn't expected that he had only intended to pay for today's meal, since he couldn't keep eating other people's food for free.

But it seems that because of the Titan Blood Crystal he took out, these giants seem to have become unusually excited?

That's not right. Logically speaking, these giants known as the "Remnants of the Titans" should all be royalty among the giants, so they shouldn't be short of money.

Look at them, all dressed in suits, and these suits are of the same quality as high-end custom-made suits for humans. They are also eating transparent meat strips rich in extraordinary power. Why would they be so excited about a Titan Blood Crystal?
According to his estimation, this Titan Blood Crystal, if sold on the planet Dark, where the giants live, would probably only fetch three to three and a half gold pounds.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for a human society to sell it for only one or two gold pounds.

Only when the profits aren't large enough will businessmen refrain from making frenzied acquisitions.

But now it seems... that's not the case?
He didn't pay any more attention to it, but instead picked up the transparent strip of meat on the table and prepared to eat it.

He didn't have time to observe it closely yesterday, but now he can feel that the sweet and fresh aroma of the transparent meat strips is just like the sashimi of top-grade Australian lobster or king crab!
Moreover, it also has a hint of the oily aroma of tuna belly.

Although he was an orphan, a classmate from a wealthy family once treated him to a gourmet meal, which is why he has vivid memories of those flavors.

At this moment, just a slight sniff made his mouth water uncontrollably.

But Xia Fa had no idea just how excited the giant royal family, led by Chief Giant, were inside this spacious wooden house with a golden roof, which resembled a plaza.

More than excitement, they felt disbelief.

Because, judging from the actions of this mysterious and powerful "glutton," it seems that he... was paying for the meal?

At that moment, all the giants in the cabin felt an extremely absurd feeling.

How can a real entity be so reasonable and rule-abiding?

They actually offered to pay for the meal?

Moreover, the very first thing he did was to use the Blood of Titan Stars, a sacred relic that even the remnants of the Titans had not been able to find for hundreds of years.
To be honest, if they hadn't witnessed this scene with their own eyes, even if someone had recorded it using the secret treasure "photo newspaper" and shown it to them, they would still think it was fake!

After all, in the minds of these giant royalty, it was nothing for the Gluttons to come and have a meal; as long as they weren't suddenly killed off, they were just thankful.

More than twenty years ago, one of the many entities, known as the Patriarch of Ten Thousand Poisons Veronica, led the army of Holy Poison Bees and easily wiped out all the wandering monsters in the Thorn Abyss of Abyss Ridge.

Although her purpose in doing so is unknown, that legendary scene has long been a legend passed down among the giants.

As a result, the Titan survivors have always had an extremely clear understanding of the mysteriousness and power of the physical entity.

At the same time, because the Poison Patriarch had solved a major hidden danger for the giant royal family of Abyss Ridge, people felt more respect and awe towards the entity than fear.

Now, the new entity "Glutton" has come to eat, and it has actually brought out a sacred relic like the Blood of Titan as payment for the meal.

This made the giants and royalty respect the Glutton even more, and they even developed a slight liking for the entity.

If it weren't for the horrifying events surrounding entities like "Storyteller," "Gourmet," and "Wall of Flesh," they might have even tried to strike up a conversation with the glutton.

"The Blood of Titan Stars looks extremely similar to the Blood Crystal of Titan, but apart from us Titan survivors, ordinary people can't tell the difference at all. Hmm... This gift is too valuable. When Lord Glutton leaves later, we must compensate him with an equivalent amount of gold pounds..."

Chief Giant pondered this in his heart and made a decision, but still dared not move an inch.

At this moment, under the watchful eyes of the giants, Xia Fa picked up the transparent strip of meat and, without any hesitation, took a bite.

His eyes immediately lit up.

"This smells like this!"

Fortunately, because his figure was so blurry, no one could see Xia Fa's expression clearly.

I have to say, no wonder I couldn't stop thinking about those transparent meat strips after seeing them yesterday. It seems my foodie instincts kicked in.

The translucent meat strips taste as sweet and fresh as Arctic shrimp, yet they also have a rich, fatty flavor. One bite and you feel like you're ascending to heaven.

He glanced at the side dishes on the table, picked up a handful of lemon shreds, wrapped them together with the translucent meat strips in mint leaves, poured in a little sesame oil, and took another bite.

This time, the flavor was completely different. The sweetness of the translucent meat strips was fully brought out by the lemon zest and mint leaves, while the sesame oil further enhanced the richness of the fat. In short, delicious!

As the translucent meat strip entered his stomach, a gentle, extraordinary power spread from his stomach, warm and comforting him. Xia Fa was somewhat addicted and was preparing to switch to eating it with peanuts and mint leaves.

It has to be said, this is truly a planet inhabited by giants. A single mint leaf is as big as a fan, and peanuts are comparable to mangoes.

Then, he finally noticed the giants' royal family staring at him expectantly.

Of course, there were almost no giants who dared to look at him on their own initiative. The giants who were watching him were those who had been forced to stop all their movements when he first appeared, and did not even dare to move their eyes, which happened to be facing him.

"Oh right, I almost forgot about that..."

Xia Fa secretly regretted his mistake. He had already thought it through. Since he would be eating for free every day anyway, it wouldn't be good to let others watch him eat all the time.

Therefore, he wanted to break the rule that "no one else should touch the food when a glutton is eating."

As for pretending to establish any rules... well, we'll talk about that later.

In any case, given the formidable reputation these entities have built in this world with their seemingly limitless strength, and the various strange and terrifying legends they've left behind, he believes that even if he doesn't break any rules, no one will dare to mess with him easily.

So, Xia Fa put down the peanuts and translucent meat strips that were wrapped in mint leaves, and casually pointed with his chin to the table of a giant not far away.

"eat."

The sound came from his throat like a broken telegraph machine, and he deliberately lowered his voice to maintain an air of mystery.

The air seemed to swell for a moment, and the giant royalty in the wooden house were taken aback.

They immediately looked at each other.

Especially after seeing Chief Giant slowly nod in acknowledgment, the young giant named Barre finally mustered up his courage, picked up a strip of transparent meat that was rather small for his size with his index finger and thumb, and tried to eat it.

Seeing that "The Glutton" had no reaction, he boldly grabbed another handful of transparent meat strips and stuffed them into his mouth.

The gluttons seemed to have no intention of paying attention to them and continued eating on their own.

The giants were finally relieved and, within the cautiously tense area, began to feast.

Chief Giant's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he had already figured out the new rules in his mind.

"When Your Excellency pays for the meal, you must eat with him, but you still must not disturb him..."

Soon, under the golden roof, in the sunlight streaming in from the windows, all that remained in the room was the sound of people chewing on translucent strips of meat.

Finally, even Chief Giant ate it without worry.

Surprisingly, Xia Fa ate with exceptional relish in this atmosphere.

The transparent strips of meat on the silver plate, which was as big as the table, whetted his appetite. He ate a full... well... a full tenth of it!

There's nothing he can do; he's not a giant, after all, and his appetite isn't that big.

The peanuts used as a side dish were quite delicious, stir-fried until very fragrant, and paired with the translucent meat strips, they had a unique flavor.

Seeing that the glutton had finished eating and was about to get up,

Chief Giant hesitated for only a moment before standing up immediately, and an oval plate made of white crystal appeared in his hand.

The plate was too small for him, but just right for a human, and it was filled with stacks of gold pounds, which at first glance looked to be tens of thousands.

This is the highest form of etiquette among the Titans. In the past, this ceremonial object called the "Slyr Crystal Plate" was only brought out when royalty from various human nations or high-ranking officials from the nine major churches came to visit. On it were often precious gifts from the Titan royalty to their distinguished guests.

Seeing Chief Giant carrying a plate of gold pounds and walking towards him step by step, Xia Fa was somewhat bewildered.

what's the situation?
Are you expecting him to eat and take things as well?

To be honest, Xia Fa felt a little embarrassed, but he also had a vague idea of ​​what was going on.

It was at this moment that Chief Giant walked up to him.

Suddenly, the king of the giants knelt down on one knee, lowered his enormous head, and raised his arms.

He held up the Slyre crystal plate and the gold pounds displayed on it in front of Shafa with great solemnity and respect.
