In this chaotic world, it all started when they found an elf girl.

Can the gods who have been sent back to the heavens descend to the mortal realm again?

This question about Roy wasn't just of concern to Loki, Freya, and Ishtar; gods from all the major pantheons were listening intently. Logically, there was no point in discussing it, as the gods' agreements were already finalized.

But Roy is truly a special case.

Thanks to the praise of gods like Apollo, Ishtar, Loki, Freya, and even Hades, Roy enjoyed a formidable reputation in the heavens. To the omnipotent gods, the "miracles" Roy created might seem insignificant, but all of this was predicated on the fact that Roy was not a god, but a human!

They are mortals who would shatter at the slightest touch of a god!

Roy was the first mortal to arrive in the heavens and gain Chaos's approval, which further proves his special status.

The gods' gazes lingered on Roy and Chaos, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Upon hearing Roy's question, Chaos replied, "I know you want to take Loki and Freya back to the mortal realm, but a god can only descend to the mortal realm once; that's an ironclad rule."

Chaos spoke calmly, yet with an unwavering resolve that infuriated the gods.

Roy felt that the other person hadn't finished speaking.

Loki smoothly offered a way out: "Chaos, stop beating around the bush, let's talk terms!"

The gods, who have lived for hundreds of millions of years, are so cunning and shrewd; who could possibly be fooled by Chaos's little schemes?

Chaos, exposed but not angry, sat cross-legged in the void: "Since it's a request from a child from the lower realm, I have no choice but to make an exception..."

"Chaos!!"

The gods stared wide-eyed. "Are you serious?"

While many gods were overjoyed to see Chaos agree, many more were displeased, as breaking the rules of the game would spoil the fun!

The island gods, in particular, looked grim. They had been sent to heaven by Roy, and now they were just going to watch him take Loki and Freya back to the mortal realm? Roy, Loki, and Freya all noticed the gods' intense reaction. It seemed things weren't going to be so easy, and even Chaos couldn't act unilaterally.

Chaos seemed to have anticipated this reaction from the gods, and laughed, "Gentlemen, don't misunderstand. As the guardian and supervisor of the rules, of course I would never intentionally do something that breaks the rules."

Upon hearing this, the gods' tense expressions eased.

As long as they don't break the rules, they're fine, but they're also confused about what Chaos is trying to do.

"Chaos, stop dawdling!" Loki was furious with the other man, wishing he could beat him instead.

"Roy!"

Chaos, having attracted the attention of countless gods, opened his arms and looked excitedly at Roy: "I'll give you a chance. If you can persuade all the gods in Heaven, you can take Loki and Freya back to the mortal realm!"

Chaos's voice reached the ears of the gods, and the gods of all the pantheons widened their eyes in surprise.

Loki's composure immediately crumbled.

A thousand people will have a thousand different ideas, not to mention the countless gods in the heavens, numbering in the hundreds of millions. Is it even possible to persuade all the gods? Not to mention the distant past, the gods of the island nation, with their deep-seated grudges, would be impossible for Roy to convince.

As expected, upon hearing Chaos's words, the island gods, led by Amaterasu, almost burst out laughing, their faces revealing malicious smiles. No matter what Roy said, they would vehemently oppose it.

Chaos said, "The stage is yours now, good luck!"

Roy never expected Chaos to throw this century-old problem at him. What happened to the promised reward?

To persuade all the gods in heaven...

Roy felt a headache coming on just thinking about it. There were so many of these messy gods, with different cultures and huge individual differences. How could it possibly be possible? Just as he was fretting, Roy met Freya's gaze. A gentle smile appeared on the face of the goddess of beauty, as if she was comforting him that it didn't matter if he failed. But deep in her bright purple eyes, there was still a hint of expectation.

"call!"

Roy exhaled a breath of stale air and said, "God Chaos, I wish to make a condition."

"Sure, as long as it's within reasonable limits!" Chaos had no intention of favoring Roy.

Roy exclaimed, "Since this is about gods returning to the mortal realm, the gods involved must be those who are interested in the mortal realm and want to return. I think we just need to persuade them!"

Chaos nodded: "That makes sense!"

The gods had no objections; it was a reasonable request. Faced with gods who had no interest in the mortal realm, whatever Roy said would be like casting pearls before swine, and the chances of persuading them were ridiculously low.

Roy's proposed conditions actually raised a glimmer of hope among the gods, indicating that he was seriously considering the matter and trying to persuade the majority of them. Some of the island gods wanted to blindly oppose him, but were silenced by a glare from Amaterasu.

Amaterasu is not that foolish.

If Roy's condition is to kick the island gods out of the game, then it's perfectly reasonable for them to stand up. Opposing such a reasonable demand will only lower their image in the eyes of the gods.

True hunters only strike at the most crucial moment, Amaterasu stared coldly at Roy.

With the gods' approval, Roy stood still, pondering, countless solutions flashing through his mind.

Loki and Freya watched Roy nervously.

Time passed slowly, and the gods did not urge Roy. On the contrary, they were very patient. It was rare to encounter such a fun thing in the heavens. Like a delicious cake, it was something to be savored slowly.

Not only them, but also the gods far away in the heavens were all very interested, and tens of thousands of eyes traveled billions of kilometers to focus on Roy. At this moment, Roy was being watched by countless gods.

Two hours later, Roy finally gathered his thoughts, slowly opened his eyes, and a confident glint flashed in the depths of his eyes. The gods involuntarily straightened their bodies.

Loki, Freya, Chaos, and other gods could clearly sense Roy's determination.

Roy's gaze swept over all the gods present: "Gentlemen, what is the purpose of your journey to the lower realm?"

The gods frowned.

Roy's voice grew even louder as he continued to press, "Compared to the resource-rich celestial realm, the lower realm is barren. Why would you abandon your omnipotent divine power and go to that impoverished world?"

Many more gods were drawn into thought.

Before the gods could answer, Roy continued at his own pace: "Isn't it because they're tired of the omnipotent life? Interacting with humans in the lower realms, utilizing limited resources and their own wisdom to create everything they want and change the world—isn't that a game?!"

The gods nodded repeatedly, agreeing wholeheartedly. Their gazes towards Roy softened, as if they had found a rare kindred spirit. Roy finally revealed his true colors: "So don't be so rigid. If this is a game, what's the point of having such inflexible rules?" Roy's words were like a wake-up call, enlightening the gods, their eyes gradually brightening with excitement.

Seeing that the gods were moved, the island nation's gods secretly thought that something was wrong. This kid's ability to talk was too powerful. Every word he said hit the deepest thoughts in the gods' hearts. Even they felt a sense of attraction.

Roy said, "I suggest that in the upcoming 2.0 version, we introduce rules for the gods to return to the underworld!"

As Roy finished speaking, the entire celestial realm fell into a long, deathly silence, and the gods' faces were blank.

Loki and Freya also had their mouths slightly open.

Someone made a sound, drawing the gods back to reality. After a brief silence, a deafening roar of cheers erupted. "Adding new rules? Interesting."

"I recommend watching GG Resurrected!"

"I don't want to waste time, I'm going to spend money!"

After Roy's earlier groundwork, the gods fully accepted the idea of ​​a "game," their faces flushed with excitement, and they continued the discussion on this topic with great enthusiasm.

The island's gods were completely dumbfounded. Roy wasn't just forcibly taking Loki and Freya back to the mortal realm; he was preparing to change the rules set by the gods of heaven! What an arrogant idea a mere human could have!

Amaterasu gritted her teeth, her feelings a mix of emotions. She had underestimated Roy; she hadn't realized he had this trick up his sleeve.

Roy's solution was to bind all the gods to the same chariot, and more importantly, with the addition of new rules, they might also be able to return to the underworld.

The island nation's gods oppose it, which indirectly harms their own interests and will also incur the gods' displeasure.

Amaterasu was caught in a deep dilemma: should she still oppose Roy?

"You little rascal, well done!"

Loki couldn't help but praise Roy, saying that he hadn't rambled on and, under the guise of a game, had laid out real benefits before the gods, leaving it to them to see if they were tempted.

Who can guarantee that they won't encounter any accidents in the lower realms?

Even powerful clans like the Loki Familia and Freya Familia couldn't protect their god, let alone other Familias. Returning them to the heavens was too hopeless. The new rules tore open a crack of hope.

Freya's clear eyes reflected Roy, who was surrounded by gods like a star, and his eloquent figure made her heart flutter. In the past, that was her place, but at this moment, she felt no jealousy. She just looked at him with a slightly flushed face.

Chaos smiled without saying a word. He had indeed judged Roy correctly; Roy could indeed make a name for himself in the Celestial Realm.

For thousands of years, countless gods who were sent back have tried every means to return to the lower realm, but no one thought of starting with the rules. Roy is the first to do so.

Roy has another unique advantage!

When the deity who was sent back to the heavens brought up this matter, the other deities didn't care at all and only looked down on them—who doesn't know what you're thinking? You want to revive after losing a game? Can't you take a game?

Roy was the best person to bring up this topic. As a child from the lower realm, the affairs of the heavens had nothing to do with him, yet he cared so much about the gods. This alone made the gods' favor towards him skyrocket.

By aligning their own interests with the general trend, they benefit everyone and make it difficult for anyone to oppose them.

The heavens hadn't been this lively in a long time, and Chaos was extremely pleased with the vibrant scene.

"Many of them are still in the Nether. Is it really appropriate for us to unilaterally decide on new rules?"

"Don't worry, they won't object!"

Some gods raised concerns, while others laughed. Those gods who had already experienced the mortal realm were even less likely to oppose the new rule; at most, they felt a slight dissatisfaction at not having participated in it.

The resolution was quickly put into discussion, with only one key point: what conditions must be met for the gods to return to the mortal realm? This standard had to be set! The gods argued fiercely, almost coming to blows.

Too simple a rule won't work either. Things that are too easily obtained are often not cherished; otherwise, the gods wouldn't have set such strict rules back then. The same applies this time. Returning to the mortal realm is acceptable, but the gods who have been sent back cannot obtain it so easily.

Several hours had passed, and the gods still couldn't reach a conclusion. Chaos laughed and said, "Why don't we hear what the child has to say?" All the gods turned to look at Roy.

The fairies were green with envy; Roy was truly favored by the gods.

Roy's situation wasn't as easy as the fairies imagined. It was another hot potato. He knew that if he couldn't come up with a satisfactory result, the gods would rather give up than add new rules. He also had to take care of the interests of all parties. It was a job that no human could do...

Fortunately, he was prepared. Roy said, "Everyone, I don't know if you've noticed, but only the gods who have been sent back to the heavens need to return to the mortal realm and look at each other." Roy's words sounded a bit strange at first, but they vaguely realized something.

Roy continued, "The gods in the heavens possess divine power and are omnipotent. No matter what conditions they set, it wouldn't be difficult for them... In that case, why not place our hopes on the humans in the lower realms?"

"ⅠⅠ"

The gods weren't fools; after Roy's prompting, they immediately understood what Roy wanted to say.

Gods who have descended to the mortal realm must have established a retinue or a close human relationship. This is a test of their bond with the children of the mortal realm! Discussing things in this direction, the gods found it very promising, significantly increasing the level of interest.

If the gods go down to the mortal realm and don't form a deep bond with the children there, then there's no need for them to return. In a sense, it can even force the gods to build good relationships with their followers.

After three days and three nights of discussion, and only under Roy's urging—otherwise the excited gods could have talked non-stop for decades—the gods finally came up with the final version of the plan.

Taking the "destiny" between the gods and the children of the mortal world as the starting point!

A deity can inform their family members in advance that after they are sent back to the heavens, the family members need to complete a world-class feat, that is, a feat that affects the entire world, in order for the deity to return to the mortal realm!

To accomplish a world-class feat and gloriously reunite one's own deity—isn't that a wonderful thing?

Roy pondered to himself that bringing Loki and Freya back—two world-class feats—wouldn't be too difficult, after all, he was the strongest adventurer in the lower realms. Suddenly, Roy noticed that something was amiss with the gods.

Chaos chuckled, "At the request of certain gods, this rule is on a trial period and will be a bit stricter. Just to make a good number, Roy, once you complete the twelve Great Labors, the gods will allow you to return to the mortal realm with Loki and Freya!"
