Moreover, there wasn't even room for discussion.

The devastating impact of the black sky is the best answer.

Omega responded as a matter of course, leaving Bai Ye, who knew this in his heart, to sigh again.

She wasn't entirely without feelings for Kurima, her friend who had also rebelled against the established order.

"Honestly, how could they even go down that path? What were they thinking..."

Just then, the part of the observatory that was originally responsible for monitoring Izayoi's side gradually started to operate again from a state full of noise.

"Oh, I don't know what happened in between, but we're finally getting to the point."

Omega got up.

In the video, Izayoi, covered in wounds, is facing a gigantic figure.

The monster of the labyrinth, the Minotaur.

Or, to put it another way, the Sun's sovereignty—Taurus, the sign of the zodiac.

The ticket to enter the game was now in front of Izayoi.

Chapter 787 The Path of the Gods

"Pfft, hahahaha—"

The miniature garden, located in a completely different space from the altar, made Kurima happily roll around on the ground, clutching his stomach.

"Honestly, although I knew you were too early, I didn't expect you to get beaten so badly."

Her attitude aroused dissatisfaction among the prince's subordinates, including Ling.

However... their current situation is indeed not very good.

Everyone had more wounds and looked quite disheveled—the prince, who was in the worst condition, was bleeding from his entire body.

"In terms of testing, we really learned a painful lesson."

Despite her appearance, Kurima continued to joke leisurely, seemingly unconcerned about the serious injury of Prince Kargi, her agent and fellow incarnation of Vishnu.

Such an attitude naturally fueled the dissatisfaction of Ling and the others.

Although they knew that as exceptional individuals, simply being able to stand here with them was already a great favor, it would be extremely unbecoming for subordinates not to feel anger at their master's insult.

His Highness, however, who was in the center of the powder keg, seemed not to care much.

"It's nothing, it's just that my completion rate as a candidate for the original text is slightly lower than the other party's... If we really had to use our trump cards, we could probably still achieve mutual destruction."

"Hey~~ But I just saw you being pinned to the ground and beaten with my own eyes."

Even His Highness twitched his lips when faced with Kurima's feigned naive pursuit.

Afterwards, while receiving simple medical treatment from Rin, he was also observing his client... no, to be precise, given their situation, the other party's identity was closer to the term used in the game to refer to these clients—'sponsor'.

He still doesn't know what the sponsor is really thinking.

Originally, the dragon in this world should have been exiled outside the Little Garden during the initial Star Sovereignty War because of the possible conflict with the Dragon God and White Night at that time. Although it is unknown whether she has the ability to return on her own, it can be confirmed that her return this time is due to Gargi's guidance and summoning, which was done by Gargi, who was also an incarnation of Vishnu, and who risked his life in the battle with Black Wind.

The cooperation between the two parties was based on this point—Kurima's way of repaying Kargi.

However, while the exact location of the small garden is uncertain and difficult to grasp for those who are not welcome, Galji also finds it hard to believe from the bottom of his heart that this being of absolute authority has no other way to return. Therefore, he also harbors doubts about whether the other party truly wants to repay the favor.

Rather, judging from his attitude, there's no need to doubt that this guy is just not serious.

Unaware of His Highness's gaze, Kurima rolled up from the floor and straightened his clothes.

"However... your resolve doesn't seem to have wavered much."

"Of course. As fellow candidates for the original text, I have no reason to lose to him. Besides, the sovereignty of the sun here is not an urgent need for me at the moment, so it's fine to leave it with him for now."

After all, this was just a test—His Highness expressed this attitude with confidence.

"Ha, it clearly takes ten suns to fully complete the Spirit Realm... But then again, you already have the ticket to enter, and rushing things now will have limited effect, so it's normal to speak more forcefully."

Kurima shrugged, his attitude somewhat ambiguous.

Then, she smiled again.

"Speaking of which, you shouldn't have forgotten what I told you after we were defeated in Azdakhaha, right?"

"Although you talked a lot of nonsense back then, but... 'It's better to clear your head before you mess with that guy' -- that's probably what you said."

His Highness squinted and revealed a bright smile.

"I haven't forgotten. In fact, I can't forget even if I wanted to, and my mind is perfectly clear."

"So what? Don't tell me that because of the game rules, I don't have to face that guy directly, so it's okay, and then you're trying to take care of my poor little self who might have to face that guy directly."

Faced with Kurima's apparent dissatisfaction at being ignored, His Highness could only respond with a wry smile.

"Ha, you know the answer, don't you? Although meeting my subordinates' expectations is my top priority, and if I just consider that, many things won't be so troublesome..."

His Highness glanced gently at Ling and his subordinates, including Elder Ge, who were bandaging his wounds.

"But I also have my own mission, so I'll have to trouble you to keep me company for a while."

His Highness's attendants gave him a firm look and did not respond, as if to declare that this was a matter that did not need to be confirmed again, since His Highness had already consulted them repeatedly before.

"Hey, this confirms my determination once again. It really is a great resolve."

Kurima jumped down and sat on a nearby rock, but although she spoke words of praise, her expression was just the same innocent smile as usual.

For this dragon-blooded girl who always presents herself with such childlike innocence, perhaps heroes with such determination can be found in every era.

However, whether they can shoulder the great responsibility of pioneering the future still needs to be proven by facts.

At the same time, Kurima was well aware that it would be difficult for His Highness to coexist with Izayoi's goals, even though both wanted to transcend the apocalyptic worldview, their methods were completely opposite.

This is a very simple reason.

Izayoi is the candidate for the original text of humanity, while Gargi is the candidate for the original text of the gods.

Although, as Izayoi said, these two sides are not absolutely opposed concepts, they are indeed completely different in their methods and styles of doing things.

The divine side naturally advocates a mythological view of history that "all problems are solved under the guidance and leadership of the gods," but for humankind, mythology and history are two things that should not be confused.

His Highness's identity—Vishnu's tenth avatar, the white horse Kalki—is a god who descends at the end of the world in mythology to lead humanity through the apocalypse, naturally representing the future where human history and mythology are combined.

That dragon god seems to be opposed to... or at least doesn't support this approach.

In fact, if we don't discuss the specific methods, just focusing on whether these two paths can cooperate, Kurima doesn't think it's really impossible. In fact, in the face of a real crisis, nothing is impossible.

However, it seems that Prince Galji did not consider that direction.

As for Kurima, she didn't intend to interfere too much in the future path of this 'prince', but rather to quietly assist him from the sidelines.

In any case—for pure-blooded dragons who exist independently of mythology and human history, especially for absolute rulers like Kurima, the approaching end times really won't have much of an impact on them.

For her, there weren't many issues to consider.

And now, sponsoring this prince like this is partly out of consideration for our shared 'Vishnu' bond, but on the other hand...

"This kind of development is really interesting."

Kurima looked at the high-spirited prince and a smile crept onto his lips.

For immortal beings who are already close to being invincible, it is not uncommon for them to have sudden whims to pass the time, even if the stage for passing the time is particularly heavy and is on the verge of collapse at any time.

"Anyway, I was originally on the Demon King's side, so it's quite exciting to stand on the opposite side of that guy again."

Kurima narrowed his smiling eyes.

"So, how exactly will it arrive?"

The inevitable end is about to arrive.

Whether it's the prince before me or the entire miniature garden.

And what role will she play in all of this?

Kurima maintained his smile throughout, remaining as innocent and naive as ever.

Chapter 788 Volcanic Roar

While Kurima and His Highness were discussing the future, Indra returned to the observatory.

"Pfft───"

He was greeted with an involuntary burst of laughter.

Bai Ye covered her mouth, almost bursting out laughing just like her best friend Shi Jielong was doing at that moment.

At this moment, Di Shitian's appearance was even more disheveled than that of His Highness and the others. Although he had no wounds, his tattered clothes and half-bald head made him look even more pathetic.

Seeing someone in a worse situation than himself clearly made Bai Ye very happy.

"Hey, don't push your luck! Facing a monster of that level all by yourself is already a huge challenge for me!"

"Ha, you're asking what a monster is?"

Omega, lying flat with his hands behind his head, opened one eye and lazily pressed Indra for answers, causing the latter, who had initially intended to be assertive, to twitch his lips and shut his mouth.

After all, the three in front of him were all the same kind of 'monster'.

"Honestly, you all know what happened over there, right? You didn't even come to help out and put on a show."

Emperor Shitian sighed, found a seat, and slumped back in his chair, completely relaxing. He touched the half of his hair that wasn't bald yet.

Although Kurima did not actually attack Izayoi in the end, he was still responsible for preventing any potential harm since he was present at the time.

Then Kurima gave him an annoyed glare, and that's how it ended up like this.

She neatly shaved off half of her hair and tore off half of her clothes, as if she were just trying to prove to herself that 'being so nervous is useless'—a childish act.

Indeed, although the current Indra is far from having the power of his prime, the fact that he can do such a thing so easily and without error can only be described as the dragon's might worthy of the name of the omnipotentiary.

Not to mention that Kurima is definitely not known for his precise maneuvers, and this behavior may have been similar to the Heavenly Army flexing its muscles... or it may have been purely a spur-of-the-moment thing.

It's just that it's a bit too much for Indra's heart.

"Anyway, you handled it just fine on your own."

Bai Ye waved his hand.
