"…!"
When he felt his feet on the ground again, Shien woke up as if it was a conditioned reflex. He reached out a hand in front of him, as if trying to hold something back.
However, at this moment, Shien had returned to his home and reappeared in his room. He was no longer in the familiar temple.
"Sigh …"
Shien was speechless for a long time. After a while, he sighed and retracted his hand.
"It seems that the goddess won't reveal anything more."
Shien's mood became complicated once again.
Recalling the Goddess's every move and her clear words, Shien seemed to have guessed her identity.
"I didn't expect her to really wake up …"
Shien did not know how to describe his current mood.
Should he feel honored?
After all, he had seen a supreme being that others would never be able to see, and he had even received some hints from that being's mouth.
But the Goddess obviously did not intend to intervene in this situation, which made Shien feel that she was as cold as the rumors said.
Should he feel indignant and accuse her of not helping?
Not even Shien could do that.
Perhaps that person was indeed as cold as the rumors said, so cold that it was even a little unreasonable, but she was still a god, a truly omnipotent god. Judging her with the thoughts of an ordinary person was nothing more than a method that could not even be called moral coercion.
So, the best way was to treat her as a bystander who knew nothing about everything, just like what the Goddess said.
From this point of view, and thinking about things, he should be grateful that he could get some hints from her.
Sean shook his head, trying to get rid of all the complicated thoughts about the other party from his mind.
Then, Shien focused all his attention on the hint given by the Goddess.
"The resurrection of the Demon King …?"
Shien murmured.
Such a big thing, should he say it out loud?
But so what if he said it?
At most, he could shock and panic Lidas and the others. Other than that, it seemed like he could not do anything else.
Now, everyone was almost helpless against the newborn [Primal Demon]. If they fell into panic because of the Demon King, the efficiency of the battle would be even lower.
Rather than that, it was better to wait and see.
"At least, judging from the Goddess's tone, Danas hasn't gathered the conditions to resurrect the Demon King."
Even if the resurrection of the Demon King didn't require the origin item that symbolized the concept, Danas still had to gather the necessities to resurrect the Demon King.
As for the 'necessities', he more or less had some clues.
So, he wasn't completely helpless now.
On top of that …
"Even if the Demon King is resurrected, she would have to retrieve her [Origin] item if she wants to regain her full power."
Unfortunately, Sean also had a clue about the so-called source of the matter.
Shien skillfully immersed his consciousness into his body and gazed into his sea.
There, the holy sword was quietly bathed in a golden radiance.
Beside it, the red and blue gems were spinning and also bathed in the red and blue radiance.
Before this, Shien only knew that these two gems must have a deep connection with the Demon King and the Supreme God.
It wasn't until this moment that Sean realized what they were.
Without a doubt, these two gems were the origin item of the Demon King and the Supreme God. They symbolized the concept of their existence.
Whether it was the Demon King or the Supreme God, they had such a gem in their arms from the moment they were born.
Shien first looked at the red gem.
"This is the Demon King's gem, right?"
Shien was certain of this.
Moreover, he could also guess when this precious jade had entered his body.
"It was when I was sent to the holy realm by Nyon and saw Omniss, right?"
That time, out of sympathy, Shien boldly hugged the Supreme Goddess to sleep together.
It was also from that time that Shien dreamed of the past of the Demon King and the Supreme God for the first time.
Then, it was also that time that Shien saw the red gem flying toward him and fusing into his body in his dream.
Thinking of the fact that the Demon King's gem was taken away by the Supreme God after the Demon King died in battle a thousand years ago, how could Shien not understand what was going on?
"It must be that time when the Supreme God Omniss released the Demon King's gem and let it run into my body, right?"
Shien sighed again.
He really didn't know that there had always been such a dangerous and precious thing in his body.
"Speaking of which, the reason why the Demon Roar Chain broke free from Helimis' control and formed a connection with me and recognized me as its master was also because of the Demon King's gem?"
Shien suddenly thought of this.
At that time, Shien had always felt that it was a little unbelievable. It wasn't until this moment that Shien came to a sudden realization.
"The creator's origin is with me, so it naturally can't help the wicked and be my enemy."
Thus, the Demon Roar Chain recognized Shien as its master and became his secondary weapon.
Although, it was right that Sean didn't use it much.
"The problem is, forget about the Demon King's gem, what's with the other gem that's obviously the origin of the Supreme God?"
Shien turned his gaze and looked at the blue gem. He had a headache again.
When did this thing come into his body?
Could it be that the Goddess woke up because of this?
"I'm a little confused …"
Shien's face was full of bitterness.
The Hero's Holy Sword.
The Demon King's gem.
The Goddess's gem.
The items that symbolized the three highest concepts were actually all in his body. How could he not be confused?
When he didn't know of their existence, or what they were, Shien could still ignore them and be calm. Now that he knew what they were, Shien felt as if there were a few terrifying bombs in his body. It really made his liver tremble.
The Holy Sword was fine. After all, it was his. Shien could clearly feel the connection between him and it. He was also very familiar with it, as if they were connected by blood.
But as for the two gems, although Shien felt that the hidden power in his body seemed to have some connection with them, he didn't feel like he could control them at all.
Just like the Hero's Holy Sword could only be used by the Hero himself, even other Heroes couldn't use other people's Holy Swords. Neither the Demon King's gem nor the Goddess's gem would be controlled by Shien.
They only had one master, and that was the Demon King and the Supreme God.
Even if they were in his body now, if the Demon King and the Supreme God wanted to, they could immediately summon them back with just a thought.
These things didn't belong to him at all, but they were domineeringly living in his body. It would be strange if Shien didn't tremble.
"These two gems have been here for a long time. Will they go out of control at any time and mess around in my body?
"If they stay here like this, will my body mutate?
"Will the Demon King and the Supreme God use these two things to do something to my body?"
Shien was suffering from paranoia.
At this moment …
"I don't think the gems will do anything to you."
The sudden voice gave Shien a huge fright.
Only then did Shien realize that there was a second person in his room other than himself.
"Hey … La Xia?"
Shien looked at the maid who suddenly appeared in his room as if he was shocked.
It was La Xia.
"I noticed something strange in your room, so I came to see what's going on."
Looking at Shien's bewildered expression, La Xia explained the reason for her appearance in a concise manner.
"Then … can't you not appear and disappear so mysteriously?"
Shien patted his chest and couldn't help but complain.
La Xia didn't show any expression of guilt.
"You were thinking too much and were too engrossed in your thoughts."
La Xia said calmly.
Shien couldn't refute her.
He knew that he was indeed a little paranoid just now.
He had no choice. Originally, he just wanted to go to Nyen's place to see if he could meet the Supreme God and get some help. Who would have thought that he would be involved in such a big matter and discover some of his secrets?
It was inevitable that Shien, who hadn't adjusted his mentality, would suddenly become bewildered and paranoid.
Of course …
"Even if it wasn't this time, don't you always appear and disappear mysteriously?"
Shien rolled his eyes at La Xia.
"Sorry."
La Xia apologized, but there was no other expression on her face.
This gave Shien a sense of déjà vu.
(Speaking of which, this big sister's temperament is quite similar to that goddess'.)
Both were so calm and even expressionless. No matter what happened, she was so calm, so cold, and didn't show any signs of fuss.
(Could it be that this is the standard of a big boss?)
Shien smiled bitterly.
Then, Shien turned to La Xia.
"You mentioned the precious jade just now, right?" Shien looked at La Xia and said, "Could it be that you always knew that the Demon King's precious jade was with me?"
Shien's question made La Xia raise her head.
"Yes." La Xia said calmly, "On the day Master obtained the Demon King's precious jade, I already sensed it."
This was inevitable.
"I don't know if this body reacted to the Demon King's precious jade, or if it was my own birth that caused me to have some reaction to the precious jade." La Xia said calmly, "From that day onwards, I knew that the precious jade was with Master."
Because of this, La Xia suddenly hugged Shien and reminded him to be careful.
The purpose was to subtly tell Shien that the thing in his body might put him in danger.
It wasn't that the precious jade would do anything to Shien, but if this matter was known by others, there was no guarantee that it wouldn't cause unimaginable consequences.
If outsiders were to know that the Demon King's precious jade, which was originally unable to be resurrected, had actually come out from the Supreme God's place, it would definitely cause chaos in the world, right?
"What about Lésia?" Shien asked doubtfully, "Why doesn't Lésia seem to have any special reaction to the precious jade in my body?"
Hu Xia hesitated for a moment before replying to this question.
"Eldest Miss once lost an important part of her power."
La Xia said this.
"Lost an important part of her power?"
Shien was startled.
"Yes." La Xia nodded and said, "Because of this, she couldn't sense the existence of the precious jade in your body."
After saying this, La Xia silently added another sentence in her heart.
(Eldest Miss should be able to sense the existence of the precious jade now, right?)
No matter what, the Eldest Miss seemed to have regained her power.
But where was she now?
La Xia thought silently in her heart.
