You are all my wings!

However, due to her extremely high vantage point of view, her extremely high mental strength and insight, Jormungandr instinctively realized that her flirting with her did not contain any love.

"Clothes are just a means of covering the body."

Jormungandr said calmly:

"Since I want you to fall in love with me first, I naturally have to make you interested in my body first, since you are inherently attracted to beauty, there is no doubt about that."

Lyon was speechless.

That makes sense. Even if a person is beautiful inside, if they are not beautiful, they can only have camaraderie and family affection at most, but never romantic love.

Beauty is sometimes a very subjective thing.

"So, you... you were just moved?"

Jormungandr paused for a moment, then asked.

Lyon said, "Actually, there are some."

"Just some?"

Jormungandr looked thoughtful: "Why only a few? In terms of body type, I'm the same type as Terena, you should like me. In terms of temperament, I'm superior to them, and in terms of looks, I'm the most beautiful in the world of Auster! With me so alluring to you, why aren't you moved by me?"

"Um, it's not that I like Terena's type, it's just that the type of body I like happens to have."

He certainly doesn't like all lolis, and that needs to be stated clearly.

Similarly, he doesn't like all pretty girls; it's just that the girls he likes happen to be pretty.

Jormungandr looked at Leon suspiciously: "But looking at your past life, you've dated quite a few people with my body type, haven't you? For example, Therena, the reincarnation of Yandis, Mshiruna... oh, and some other women whose names I don't know."

She can even see through all of this?

Lyon then said, "Although attraction may begin with temperament and appearance, it is by no means limited to that. Your Majesty has never loved anyone, so it may be difficult for you to truly understand this principle."

Jormungandr nodded: "I see. You mean to say that my personality is unattractive to you?"

Is that how you interpret what I said?

Leon was speechless, even though he was right that Jormungandr's personality hadn't yet attracted him.

But these are clearly two different things.

"Your Majesty is too kind. Perhaps we don't know each other well enough. Maybe if we have more in-depth exchanges, I will suddenly fall in love with you."

"If that were true, that would be great."

Jormungandr said, “In my opinion, although you often talk about love, you don’t practice it. You even use it as a weapon.”

My weapon?

Lyon felt a slight chill; he hadn't expected Jormungandr to be so perceptive.

"Perhaps."

However, since Jormungandr had brought this up, Leon had no intention of denying it. He pondered for a moment and said:

"Because I know that if I'm not strong enough, I can't protect the people I love. So this also hides my desire. I want to love, and I want to become stronger. I want both, and I don't want to give up either of them. I don't want to be someone who gives up B for A."

"You've finally said something that wasn't entirely false."

Yemeng Jialuo laughed, her eyes crinkling at the corners and shining brightly.

[Goddess Jormungandr's affection level +2%, current affection level 34%]

She stretched out her slender arm and gently stroked Leon's cheek: "But do you know that even if you're not strong enough, I will protect you whenever you need me?"

"Although what you said is very tempting."

Lyon said, "But I can't rely on you every day, can I?"

"If I could, I would prefer that you always want to rely on me."

Yemeng Jialu smiled faintly, then suddenly turned and left, her smooth and beautiful body drifting away.

"Your Majesty, have you finished speaking?"

"Now that I've said that, I need to think carefully about what I should do next to make you fall in love with me."

Lyon thought to himself, the problem now is not just when he will fall in love with Jormungandr, but more so, if he falls in love with her, will she really fall in love with him in return?

After all, for Jormungandr, 'love' was a very empty concept.

Her behavior so far shows that she has seen many such things, but she has no idea what they are. She is like a highly intelligent robot, just imitating, but never having any real desire of her own in this regard.

……

After that, Lyon took the opportunity to review the recent attribute growth and the recent strength planning.

【主要属性：窥命力364/神圣能量容纳量794/精神力2751/生命力1490/魔力量2263/体力2528/力量2404/敏捷2984】

Divine Energy Capacity +156, Spirit Power +188, Vitality +143, Mana Power +203, Stamina +232, Strength +189, Agility +213

During his two advancements, the Elemental Mage used a Tier 10 four-element item with Tier 11 power to advance to Tier 8, a leap of two and a half tiers. This item was also obtained through his deception and fusion. The average attribute increase was about 70 points, which was less than his previous advancements to Tier 8. This was probably because he was already Tier 9 in essence, which slightly reduced the boost.

When the Phantom Walker advanced to the ninth rank, he used an eleventh-rank item with the power of a twelfth-rank item. He fused two Divine Abomination Cores and one Otherworldly God Core, all of which were eleventh-rank, resulting in an average attribute increase of over one hundred and twenty points, which was quite good.

In this way, his total attributes can be considered to have truly reached the twelfth rank. Although he still needs a lot of accumulation to reach the senior level, his recent growth rate is indeed quite remarkable, with several consecutive surges in a short period of time.

'The Narrative Mode and [The Gift of Love] have been the most helpful to me recently.'

'With these talents, the elemental mage can advance to the ninth rank again in just one more month.'

"During this time, I should be able to train my 13th-tier Shadow Walker skills to a level where they become routine. This would allow me to begin my journey to godhood, and then try to comprehend the Pure Conceptual Body. With my talent, it's not impossible."

'However, since I'm aiming for godhood, I'll still need a nearly thirteenth-tier shadow-type treasure. I wonder if there will be any risks involved in becoming a god in this higher-dimensional spacetime.'

Ideally, the astrologer could also advance several times during this period, allowing me to accumulate more experience and avoid irreparable problems when I become a god.

While seducing Jormungandr is one option, for Leon at this moment, comprehending the Pure Concept Body himself might be a better chance.

He closed his eyes, activated all modes, and entered a state of contemplation.

Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

boom!!!!

Above the two's temporary residence in the void, a powerful aura suddenly burst forth, like a star exploding, emitting an incomparably strong light.

"What's this commotion? It can even shake this high-dimensional spacetime? Could it be that the God of the End has successfully advanced to the sixteenth rank? How could it be so fast?"

In the far distance, a slender woman in a simple white robe, barefoot, slowly opened her eyes.

Her gaze pierced through countless light-years, and she was suddenly slightly startled: "Wait, this commotion is so great, yet it's just a tribulation to become a god?"

Chapter 609 Leon Becomes a God

The slender woman's eyes flashed again, trying to see more clearly.

A moment later, she frowned slightly, her body flashed and disappeared from the spot, and the next instant she appeared more than ten kilometers away from the outer edge of Lyon's promotion zone, neither too close nor too far.

From this distance, she quickly saw exactly what aspects of the world Lyon's promotion had shaken.

'Simply becoming a god causes such a commotion?'

'Interesting. It seems this silver-haired youth's boast about mastering the Pure Concept Body within a year might actually have a chance.'

'His advancement this time shook up a large number of concepts and informational laws. The shadows swirling around him, so dense and intense, suggest he's primarily focused on shadow-based professions, with other professions temporarily suppressed? That's wise. If several professions advanced simultaneously, he'd likely be instantly crushed by the higher-dimensional laws and explode.'

The laws of this world are not as easily dealt with as those of a lower-dimensional world.

'Furthermore, numerous low-dimensional spacetimes exist throughout this area; the greater the advancement that shakes the laws, the more widespread spacetime oscillations will occur.'

Did he know that the higher the level of advancement, the greater the challenges this higher-dimensional world would present him with?

'In this higher-dimensional world, receiving blessings isn't so easy.'

A slender woman's rosy lips curled into a knowing smile.

As she expected, the upheaval in the world's laws caused by Leon's advancement soon had a negative impact on him.

The divine light that had been continuously emanating from Leon suddenly dimmed and then collapsed inward.

Amidst the drastic shifts in spacetime, the surrounding low-dimensional spacetime bubbles released powerful explosive shockwaves, surging towards Lyon's dwelling like a tidal wave.

Although the low-dimensional spacetime bubbles nearby are not the high-intensity spacetime bubbles under the spacetime veil she left behind, but are just a kind of worldless bubble that arises and disappears naturally, they also contain the spacetime tension of skill.

If they are detonated simultaneously, the power of this spacetime shockwave would be so great that even immortals might not be able to withstand it easily, risking complete annihilation.

However, when this fierce and surging spacetime shockwave landed outside Lyon's residence, an astonishing scene unfolded.

A sword light suddenly appeared out of thin air, transforming into a ring that abruptly sliced ​​through the spacetime shockwave as if cutting through a stream of water.

'Um? '

'A strike imbued with the power of creation?'

'He not only grasped the framework of creation ahead of time, but he also mastered the technique of transforming the power of creation into something capable of obliterating everything?'

A hint of amazement flashed in the slender woman's eyes.

Comprehending the creation structure could be attributed to a stroke of luck, achieved through extensive knowledge and by referencing the thirteen forbidden zones of the Auster world.

However, to flexibly master this knowledge and transform it into destructive power that is actually usable even in this higher-dimensional spacetime, it means that it is by no means a matter of luck, but rather that the silver-haired youth's perfect and solid mastery of this knowledge has already reached a certain level. Even without luck, he possesses the inevitability to comprehend the creation structure.

With such a solid grasp of the Creation Slash, he will likely find it easy and stress-free to overcome the pressure of higher-dimensional laws brought about by his advancement.

How long has it been since she's seen a boy with such talent?

'It seems I can try to befriend him a little.'

Such a thought flashed through her mind.

'However, given my status and position, I can't be too obvious about it, lest he become arrogant and spoiled.'

As for the one-year agreement…

……

Amidst a massive surge of intense fluctuations in the laws of nature, Yemeng Jialuo awoke from her seclusion.

She opened her deep eyes, piercing through the wall, and saw Leon ascending to the next level. She felt a slight sense of relief; thankfully, it wasn't that Archmage attacking.

Although she was confident that she still had trump cards to fight back, there was still uncertainty.

'This kid's advancement speed is indeed impressive, and each time the increase is huge, a rapid leap forward.'

'Although he's only a god, his aura and pressure are so strong that they rival many thirteenth-level beings, and even surpass some. Heh, he never disappoints me.'

'But I... find everything going wrong. Am I truly incapable of understanding what love is?'

What exactly is love?

"A month ago, I said I wanted to find a way to make him fall in love with me."

'But during this time, I've already hugged him, touched him, and teased him many times with the interesting actions I've observed in the world, so why does he always seem indifferent to me?'

'Because my own actions lack love, he is also unable to feel love for me?'

'Wouldn't that create an infinite loop?'

'Do I need to do something more advanced?'

Jormungandr was completely baffled.

She wasn't worried about the problems Leon would face in becoming a god, since Leon was currently doing quite well.

Instead, she was more worried about herself. She had made some bold statements, but after a month of making a lot of moves, she was always falling short.

After a long while, she noticed that Lyon's promotion was over, so she flashed out and floated lightly to Lyon's side.

Her eyes darted around, and she saw that Leon's skin was shimmering with a faint, dim light that shifted and changed constantly—a characteristic of the faint light commonly seen in Shadow-type professions that had reached godhood.

This layer of eerie light carries an inherent authority and pressure, capable of resisting various attacks; it is the body's first line of defense.

Normally, the aura of a tenth-tier Shadow God would be very faint, but Lyon's was unusually strong and highly fluid, making it look quite remarkable.

Looking at Lyon's face again, his already handsome features seemed to have undergone a subtle adjustment and optimization, making him even more stunning than before.

Just by standing there, he exuded a powerful attraction, making Jormungandr unable to resist taking a few more glances.

As for his aura, it was even more extraordinary, at least no weaker than most of the thirteenth-tier beings known to Jormungandr, and this was the result of Lyon's recent advancement.

"Congratulations. From today onwards, you have officially entered the ranks of gods, and at least you will not die easily."
