Zeke blinked, and found himself in another weird situation like at Iliasburg. But instead of a desolate land, this time he was in the insides of a palace.

Walls, floor, ceiling… No, wait, no ceiling, just floor and walls… They were made with unknown and precious materials.

Even the most beautiful women in an utopian world would not surprise him like now.

He noticed an old and powerful-looking man sitting in a throne at the other end of the hall, in the middle of the hall, there was a formation with two people inside it, surrounded from a force field.

One of them was a child of… 12? 13? She was really young and huggable. She had black long hair and a white dress.

Then the other was around his age, and was another girl. She had blood-red hair and also a loli-like body. A crimson dress adorned her body.

Many people were around that forcefield, and all of them were looking to something on the sky.

Raising his head, Zeke looked through the hall without ceiling, and saw a starry sky. But his vision could pick up something floating in the sky, it was a person who looked as angry as Asura.

"Yun Che?!"

...Say whaaaaat?

Zeke looked at the people who yelled that familiar name, and realized that this is also another situation like the dream he had on Mine's last moments before she fell in coma.

Looking back at the girls that were trapped inside the forcefield, he recognized them as the Blood-Soaked Jasmine and Caizhi, her sister.

"So this place is…"

A memory regarding a certain chapter of Against the Gods surfaced, and Zeke murmured. "Blood Sacrifice…"

Now he had a clear idea about where he was, even if it was hard to realize at the beginning since the manhua on Against the Gods was still at the beginning.

Star God Realm, in the 14th volume, this was moments before Yun Che sacrificed his life to attempt to save Jasmine and Caizhi.

Just 30 seconds passed, and everything turned into a mess.

The sky was being distorted from the class of auras between divine cultivators, the floor was turned into a pool filled with blood, aaaaand… Yun Che messed up the Evil God's Divine Veins, activating the skill that belonged to the 5th stage of the Evil God's arts, Other Shore Asura.

As soon as his power skyrocketed, he charged to everyone around him, splattering blood left and right.

However, it was still not enough to save Jasmine and Caizhi… or himself.

Losing an arm, full of injuries, crawling across the floor littered with burned corpses… He did everything to reach Jasmine.

Zeke couldn't hear their last words, but he felt something wet trailing from his cheek.

"Ugh… This is so sad…" He was really moved from the scene in front of him, and his heart started to ache.

He didn't care about what Yun Che did in the novel, which was raping someone to save her future. Even if it was disturbing, he kept reading until here…

He sacrificed everything to have a moment alone with Jasmine, his master.

Zeke rubbed his teary eyes, touched from this. It was different from reading the novel, this was more heartbreaking because he can see it with his eyes…

And when Yum Che's body touched the ground, Zeke blinked, finding himself in a old room.

Zeke sat up, and looked around. There was only a simple table at one side. And in the bed with him, at the other side, there was Alice sleeping with him.

...This feels familiar.

When Zeke raised his blanket, and seen his naked body, the movements caused from him woke up Alice.

She gradually opened her eyes and rubbed them, then she stretched her body and sat up. "Good morning…"

"Morning?"

"You slept the entire afternoon and night." Alice rubbed her eyes.

Zeke blinked twice and murmured. "Deja vu…" Then he sat up and went to the table, where his clothes are placed.

He grabbed them and started to dress up. "Let me guess, you got hungry."

"Yeah, since you were unconscious, I just enjoyed myself. It's a shame you were unconscious both of the times… You know, your semen tastes better now, maybe it is because you changed into a Demigod, or it is the Evil God's blood in you."

Zeke held a dumbfounded face and said. "Why would I care about how my own cum tastes?"

"Just mentioning that… Are you okay now?" Alice asked, regarding Zeke's mind.

"Meh, metallic."

"Metallic?"

Zeke knocked his naked chest, before it split open, revealing some sort of reactor giving energy to the rest of his surprisingly-mechanical body.

Alice jumped in surprise at the sudden event and yelled. "WHAT IS THAT?!"

"Well, I'm a Demigod now, so I have the body of one."

Zeke closed his chest, and put on his shirt. Meanwhile Alice watched Zeke with shock, unable to believe her eyes.

One thing was getting weird things, but another was body modification without anyone noticing it!

"Are you really okay with that!?"

Zeke shrugged at Alice's question and replied. "What about it? It's not like I was so attached to my humanity."

Alice's eyes twitched, before she slammed her forehead on a wall. "...I'm going to forget about this… I'm not even going to ask anything, you are weird, and that fact will not change even if I suddenly know you since your birth."

She stood up from the bed and prepared herself. "Should we leave now?"

Zeke nodded and picked up Pumpkin that was standing on the corner of the wall together with Angel Halo. "Let's go, we don't have anything to do here…"

And so, Alice and Zeke left from the inn Alice rented the day before and left from the port town after buying a couple of things here and there.

Zeke was holding a map that he bought in a tool shop at Port Natalia, and said. "We should go along the beach for a bit before proceeding further at west."

Walking over the white sand of the beach, Zeke and Alice headed towards San Ilia, to find out anything about the Four Spirits.

"So… Are you sure you need the Four Spirits? You might find something better in your Omni Gacha." Alice asked with a curious tone, slithering beside Zeke.

"Well, I need all the non-lethal power possible if I want to accomplish what I want, and the Four Spirits you are talking about seem the best I can get at the moment. Besides, to activate the Mantra of Wrath I need to be angry, which can't just happen like that… And going in a hunt for the Spirits seems fun, too."

Alice sighed and looked forward, sensing two people approaching then from far. Due to one of those people being a monster, she vanished, leaving Zeke alone.

He already knows what happens when she vanished so he unsheathed Angel Halo and looked around.

…

...

"Kyaaaa!"
