Yes, I became a god just by exercising.

Chapter 44 Now I have no choice but to mooch a meal.
Xia Fa laughed:
"Why would you need to eat one? It's all yours."

He had previously thought that these giant grouper, which were only the size of a thumb, were a subspecies of giant grouper that had evolved due to the geological structure and environmental characteristics of Dak Star. He never expected that they were actually supernatural creatures.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. This is something that hangs in the restaurant of a giant royal family like the Titans. How could it be ordinary?
"Wow, Xiafa, you're the best!"

The doll girl was overjoyed to have received Xia Fa's permission. She picked up the oil paper package and ran towards the dark red leather sofa, seemingly enjoying eating while sitting on it in a duck-like position.

Xia Fa chuckled and sighed, then took her delicate wrist, grabbed a handful of gold pounds, and stuffed them into her hand:
"If you need to buy supernatural creatures to cook for me in the future, or if there's anything else you want to buy, use this money. You got your money from your doll sisters, right?"

Beneath nodded blankly:

"Hmm, how did you know?"

Xia Fa smiled helplessly:

"Well, if that's the case, then we should spend the money even more."

Anyway, this 10,000 gold pounds was obtained by exchanging Titan's Blood, one of the spoils that Benedict brought back from her training, so Xia Fa didn't intend to hide it.

"Okay, I understand. Hehe, I didn't expect you, Xia Fa, to be so secretive. You actually have so many gold pounds!"

Benedict chuckled and complimented Xia Fa, though it was unclear whether she meant it sincerely or was simply eager to eat the spicy grouper and dried fish.

Xia Fa laughed and let go of her hand. She quickly ran to the sofa, sat down, unwrapped the oil paper package, and began to enjoy eating.

Xia Fa was also a bit hungry, so he sat down at the table and, without using a knife and fork, grabbed the roasted grouse and roasted smoked pork knuckle and started eating.

He was quite amazed after taking just one bite. To be honest, Benedict's cooking skills were even better than those of the chef at the grand meal he had at the Bald family's house.

"No wonder everyone says that doll girls are proficient in cuisines from all over the world. Wait, it seems they can also brew wine!"

Xia Fa couldn't help but feel excited, wondering just how delicious the wine Benedict brewed would be.

Soon, the two had eaten and drunk their fill. Xia Fa straightened his clothes and prepared to go out.

Having escaped the snow demon's clutches and no longer surrounded by the freezing cold, he wore a simple off-white linen shirt, paired with black overalls and a pair of leather Martin boots in the early spring.

With her black curly hair and jet-black eyes, she actually looked quite energetic, if it weren't for her somewhat thin frame.

"Xia Fa, are you going out? Can I come with you?"

Seeing that Xia Fa was about to leave, the doll girl felt a pang of reluctance and gazed at him longingly.

Seeing this, Xia Fa had no choice but to explain to her in detail:
"I'm going on an adventure in the cave, the one we first encountered. It's very dangerous, you'd better not go."

Seeing that Xia Yu's tone was somewhat serious, Benedict understood and lowered her head slightly:

"Okay, then you must take good care of yourself, and come back soon."

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Xia Fa couldn't help but sigh softly. He walked to the sofa, affectionately ruffled her little head, messing up her smooth blonde hair, before smiling and saying:
"Don't worry, I'll be back this afternoon. You can have fun at home by yourself, or go shopping if you like."

Benedict nods her head obediently:
"I won't go out. I'll wait for you to come back, and then we'll go shopping together."

"it is good."

Xia Fa nodded slightly, turned around and strode out the door.

……

The slums on Daniel Street remained as bustling as ever, with many fishermen and fishmongers carrying buckets of fresh fish and shrimp to and fro, filling the air with the smell of fish.

The purplish-black ground was muddy, and some dead fish and shrimp lay on it.

But the pedestrians didn't care about that, and gathered in twos and threes to discuss the interesting rumors of the past few days.

On both sides were either wooden lofts or brick houses with pointed roofs. There were women hanging clothes to dry, and homeless people lying drunk on the roadside early in the morning.

As Xia Fa walked, he slowly emerged from the slums. The streets gradually became cleaner, and cafes, cake shops, bars, and other places were filled with middle-class people, their noisy voices emanating from them.

However, he was thinking about exploring the cave. To be honest, without the Baal Blade in hand, this training trip would be quite dangerous, after all, he was only a fungus-level superhuman.

Bacterial level... that sounds way too weak...

Even if his strength is equivalent to an insect-level being... insect-level seems pretty weak...

He desperately wanted to know which person in the history of this world had acquired this name to classify the strength of extraordinary individuals.

Fungus, insect, eagle, wolf, elephant, whale... at least you have to reach the eagle level to sound good.

Otherwise, he would be embarrassed to tell ordinary people that he was a fungal-level or insect-level superhuman... Xia Fa couldn't help but complain in his heart when he suddenly arrived at a wide and clean square where many white pigeons were pecking at the small insects in the cracks of the floor.

In front of the square stands a magnificent church, built in the Gothic spire style, its overall color a pure gray, gleaming softly in the sunlight.

We've arrived at the Church of St. Vivian.

Xia Fa suddenly realized that this was the first time he had come to St. Vivian's Church as a superhuman and a clergyman, and he inexplicably felt more confident.

Unlike the previous times, I no longer felt somewhat timid and hesitant.

He walked into the church and saw refugees lining up to receive relief meals. Today's meals were finally different, consisting of potato and vegetable soup with fried dough rings.

Xia Fa scanned the empty church from side to side, trying to find Chestnut.

But soon he noticed that in the left corner of the church, several clergy members, led by Chestnut, were gathered together, as if they were vying to see something.

A murmur of excited discussion could be faintly heard from inside the spacious church.

Xia Fa was a little curious, so he went over.

As if sensing something, Chestnut turned around and saw that it was Xia Fa. Her clear eyes lit up immediately, and she waved to him.

"Xia Fa, come quickly and see this unprecedented big news!"

Unprecedented breaking news?

Xia Fa paused slightly, and was about to walk over quickly, but a strange premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

Could it be...

Seeing Xia Fa approach, the other superhumans, both men and women, made way for him.

Xia Fa had actually met these people at the church in the past few days, and even knew the names of two of them, so they were acquaintances.

They were all present when the Snow Demon descended again yesterday, and they all knew that Shafa was an extraordinary descendant of the Baal Beast, and that the first contract they signed was a high-level secret pact called the Ether Source.

So, I accepted him right away today.

Xia Fa smiled at everyone as a greeting, then looked at the newspaper that was laid out flat on the back of the bench.

This wasn't even the Rum City Morning Post, but the Augu Morning Post.

The Augu Morning News is a top-selling newspaper in the Augu Kingdom, owned by a high-ranking noble of the royal family.

The information was not only firsthand, but also often highly authoritative, and they even consulted many extraordinary individuals as advisors.

On the front page of the Augustinian newspaper, a sensational headline was prominently displayed in bold, large font, accompanied by several exaggerated exclamation marks.

[A bizarre and extraordinary event, never before seen in history, a must-see!!!]

Xiafa: ...

Frankly speaking, such a headline appearing in a top-tier authoritative and professional newspaper like the Augustiner is almost a death blow to readers.

He continued reading.

According to reliable sources, yesterday, the newly appeared entity "Glutton" once again visited the golden cabin where the Titan remnants of Darkworld dine.

But this time, the situation is quite different!

[The Glutton, being a physical being, not only offered a piece of Titan's Starlight Blood, worth tens of thousands of gold pounds, as payment for his meal, but also accepted a return gift from the chieftain of the Titan remnants—Giant, the Giant King of Dark!]

Does this mean that all our previous guesses about the entity were wrong?

[Physical entities...can not only communicate, but actually establish friendly relationships?]

Given the unparalleled power of the physical entity, second only to the nine gods, if any force could establish a cooperative relationship with it, would it foreshadow a complete shift in the world's格局 (geju, a concept encompassing overall structure, overall situation, and overall power)?

Since we received this firsthand news yesterday, several human or demi-human nobles have rushed to Dark Planet, eager to know all the details of the communication between the giant royal family and Lord Glutton.

Meanwhile, nobles around the world wish to extend a sincere invitation to His Excellency the Glutton through this newspaper and others.

【Welcome, gluttons!】

The nobles promise to receive Your Excellency the Glutton with the highest honors and the most fervent hospitality!
