Having traversed countless realms, can you possibly be as clever as me?

"You seem to have a misunderstanding of what divinity is," Mammon said, toying with the Pandora's box before him without looking up.

"From our perspective, so-called divinity is not a manifestation of power or authority; it actually represents only one thing—"

"name"

"Reputation, fame, name—your system can translate it however it wants, but that's the gist of it. It represents a name that is engraved and sung throughout countless worlds."

"You mean... Oh, I understand now." Tsugumi thought for a moment, then showed a look of sudden realization.

"So, if I completely devour this divine essence, I will become the child of Nyx and Erebus, replacing Eris and becoming the mastermind behind the Trojan War?"

“You can understand it that way, but doing it is almost impossible,” Mammon shook his head.

"Even when the old man above defeated the myths, he could not completely take away their existence. Zeus is still Zeus, and Ra is still Ra. The closest to your concept is Baal and the seventy-two pillars, but a considerable number of them are not demons, and their names are still sung throughout the heavens."

Even outside the realm of the seventy-two demons, Baal remains the chief god in the few Canaanite myths, while Phoenix has become synonymous with the phoenix.

The names of demons are demons in Hell, but not in other worlds—and the same applies to this thing that contains the divine nature of discord.

If it were devoured, the name of Tsurugi could indeed become the name of the god of discord in many worlds, replacing Eris.

This is tantamount to the usurpation of naming rights. It may sound like a trivial matter, but it is actually far more terrifying than the power gained from devouring some kind of deity or profession.

Names and titles, however, cannot be given to others!

But as Mammon said, it is therefore impossible to completely invade and destroy Eris's existence.

Leaving aside the world of Greek mythology itself, the countless worlds that have arisen alongside it are a huge problem in themselves.

Moreover, to put it another way—Tsugumi had absolutely no intention of playing Eris to cause trouble!

The name of this goddess of discord didn't hold much appeal for him. Perhaps Eris thought that she, the goddess of discord, and Tsurugi, the crimson king who represented narrative conflict, were a perfect match. But Tsurugi was not so simple.

His views have always been consistent with those of the demon kings of hell—we are not slaves to authority, but masters of authority.

Mammon received the crown of greed because of his greed, not because of the crown. The strong wield power and do whatever they want, while the latter are enslaved by power and forced to act.

Therefore, Tsurugi doesn't need, and is thoroughly disgusted by, the authority of Chun Chun to cause trouble.

"What can I exchange this for with you?"

Tsugumi tossed the divine spark directly in front of Mammon. She raised an eyebrow, looking at the precious object with interest.

"You're so generous?"

"No matter how precious something is, it's better to exchange it for some useful little fashion junk than to have something useless to me," Tsugumi shrugged.

"And I trust your...business acumen."

"Hmph, if you want to mend things, just say so. I'm not immune to taking advantage of you in the future." Mammon snorted, picked up the divine essence, played with it for a moment, and then said...

"How about this, we split it fifty-fifty, each taking half of this divine authority. I'll divide it; I'll take away the discord you don't want, and you'll take away the conflict you desire."

"Wait, when did I want conflict...?"

"Your so-called divine status as the God of Fate is the embodiment of strife," Mammon interrupted him, speaking in a low voice.

What is conflict? In simple terms, it is the clash of contradictions.

From war to debate, any moment in which opposing sides are hostile to each other can be called a conflict.

This is a force of movement that disrupts the existing order, dismantles what has already existed, and attempts to build a completely new system.

Mammon's words made Tsugumi think, and then she had to admit that she was right.

The essence of Dongjiang is indeed the embodiment of conflict and strife. Or rather, the popular category "Infinite Heavens" rankings are updated weekly; click http://

The system is malfunctioning? Then destroy the malfunctioning part. If it's a person, kill them; if it's a problem, destroy the problem. And if none of these methods work?

Then smash everything and start over!

He supports the weak in taking up arms against the strong, but he doesn't blindly support the weak. He also supports the strong in striking down the weak; he simply seeks fairness amidst conflict.

The comparison between Librans is not about who is stronger or weaker, but whether one party receives treatment that is commensurate with the other.

If not? Then fight for it, argue for it, fight for it! Tsuruga firmly supports all of this, and despises all those who choose not to resist and fantasize about reform!

In other words—he was born to be the nemesis of reformists!

"Alright—" Just as Tsugumi was pondering, Mammon had already broken the divine spark in his hand into two pieces.

It really did break in half with a snap, just like breaking an apple.

Tsugumi held her half in her hand and played with it for a moment, then tilted her head and said...

"So, what are you planning to offer to buy this?"

"...I will offer you a condition you cannot refuse, but you must first use this divine essence," Mammon said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Tsurugi became interested. He picked up the glowing fragment in his hand and crushed it in his palm.

In an instant, a flood of information rushed into his brain like a tidal wave.

Understanding, cognition, absorption, assimilation, transcendence

A deluge of chaotic information and divine power, along with endless calls—it was as if countless people were whispering the same name in his ear!

"Eris!"

"The Goddess of Discord!"

"The murderer of Troy!"

"Nyx's daughter!"

"Goddess of Calamity!"

"Her breasts are padded!"

Without exception, all this information is a unified call from all the realms to the deity named 'Eris,' and these calls are what could potentially transform him into Eris...

Tsugumi: ? Isn't the last one a little off?

In short, although these calls were noisy, they were not enough to clear Tsurugi's mind, after all, they were not even as loud as the calls he made when he became the Crimson King.

Then, he looked at his fourth character card, which was also the character card he used the most in the Re:Zero world.

Character Card: Si Ming

Inscribed Class: [Divine Master of Fate - Roaring Axe] [God of Conflict]

【The Fate Master - The Roaring Axe】

'He neither bows nor prays, but tears apart the imperial crown and shatters the bells and drums; the wielding of the axe is not the way of Heaven, but a rebellion against the way of man. He takes from the surplus to give to the needy. He does not reside in the main hall of Heaven, but dwells in places of broken cliffs and crumbling ruins. He does not protect those who obey, but only favors those who dare to break their shackles; the more unjust the situation, the stronger the power he bestows.'

God of Conflict

'By the divine essence of Eris, the goddess of discord, you have become the possessor of strife. Your followers, who worship your path of strife, will offer sacrifices, and your name will be sung even more widely!'

Skill Status: [Source of Cursed Power (LvMax)] [Heavenly Favor (Lv3)] [Enemy of Humanity (LvMax)] [Unstoppable and Unstoppable (Lv4)] [Magnetic Field Power (Lv7)]

【Source of Cursed Power (LvMax)】

'You have mastered and acquired the power of all magic; no magic holds any secret from you now.'

【Heaven's Favor (Lv3)】

'You have saved the will of several worlds, and therefore have received the favor of Heaven. In any relative world with corresponding concepts, you will gain a considerable degree of the world's affection.'

Enemy of Humanity (LvMax)

'Your very existence is an enemy of civilization, the antithesis of humanity. Upon entering a world with this skill, you will automatically be placed on the opposite side of the human camp!'

[Nothing Goes Forward, Nothing Comes Back (LV4)]

'For beings transcending time, the past, future, and present are all fixed. As a being possessing the status of a deity and an equally superior being, you will be allowed to return to your past and make changes—but the extent of those changes will determine the corresponding karmic consequences you bear in the present.'

【Magnetic Field Power (Lv7)】

'You have gained magnetic field power, a power that points directly to the origin of the universe. At this moment, you possess magnetic field power equivalent to 750,000 horsepower.'

Tsugumi's fourth character card also received a silent boost after he was crowned the Crimson King. In fact, this character card is now used more frequently than the Saint and Demon character cards.

After all, it was 100% her own power, and Tsugumi was already getting a bit tired of playing as a demon or paladin. Besides—spells and magic were really convenient for handling low-level matches!

To expand the power of this divine office, you need enough believers to practice your path—but this is not a path of incense and faith. The true God does not draw power from the complex emotions of mortals.

What the true God always needs is for believers to sing His name, recognize His ways, recognize His name, and then proclaim it, so that His eternal divinity, reflected in the heavens, will come.

"So, in return, I have an interesting set of divine coordinates and a forged identity, obtained from a... well—a somewhat wicked demon duke." Mammon raised his right hand, a slightly amusement in his eyes.

"Of course, how you want to use this fake identity is entirely up to you."

659. [One Piece] Deceiving Aqua

"Remember, newbies, if you want to survive on this ocean, there are two things you must remember!"

On a naval warship, a naval officer in a cloak of justice faced a large group of green recruits and shouted in a booming voice...

"The first thing to do is, if you encounter members of the Axis cult, don't think twice, run away immediately!"

"Secondly, never take any improper actions to oppress civilians in countries where the Axis Cult is present. If you see nobles or even World Government officials being hunted down, just pretend you didn't see it!"

"Sir!" a new recruit shouted, raising his hand.

"What's so terrible about the Axis Church! I believe our navy's justice is unmatched!"

"Good question!" The officer looked at the naive and ignorant boy before him with a pitying expression, then said quietly.

"This all started with the day when the Celestial Dragons living in Mary Geoise all turned into demons..."
