Gluttony went berserk again under the stimulation of food, it was like a wild horse that broke free from its reins, rampaging in Kieran's body.
It used the Cardinal Sins Force to ignite the mystical runes in Kieran's body one after another, impacting the consumed chaos and darkness that hadn't truly recovered yet.
Under Kieran's gaze, the chaos and darkness in his body was reduced once more.
Bit by bit.
Bit by bit.
Soon, the chaos and darkness that went through two consecutive impingements were about to completely vanish under the illumination of the mystical runes.
At that very moment …
Wung!
A buzzing noise sounded in Kieran's ears.
His eyes were seeing stars, his body staggered and he was forced to lean on his palms to support himself from his sitting position.
Then, a part of the materialized chaos and darkness that occupied Kieran's mind split out and entered Kieran's body.
This part of darkness was like a monster that grew with the wind.
A breath later, the chaos and darkness that were supposed to vanish in Kieran's body was filled up once more!
Kieran frowned as he looked at the changes in his body with slight dizziness.
However, when he noticed the chaos and darkness in his mind had weakened a little, his frown eased up right away.
Although the weakening was insignificant compared to the chaos and darkness, it was like a drop in the ocean.
However, the changes told Kieran what he should do next.
"Persevere and wear it down bit by bit?"
Kieran muttered in his heart but his lips curled up into a smile.
Such a matter would be extremely troublesome in most people's eyes, Kieran was no exception.
But the difference was, Kieran had patience and determination.
And …
Persevere!
Since he saw hope, why not persevere?
Kieran who went through the baptism of despair cherished hope more than anyone else.
Hope had appeared.
Then he would hold on to it with all his might.
Otherwise, Kieran would never forgive himself.
Huu!
Kieran exhaled slightly and adjusted his condition swiftly. He then looked up at Great Swamp.
"You're doing something dangerous."
Great Swamp sat in front of Kieran and spoke slowly. His young face and aged voice echoed in the room.
It was as if a barrier had separated the entire room from the Rassho Temple.
It was as if there was no such room in the Rassho Temple at all.
"Most of the time, danger follows us like a shadow."
"It's just that some people know about it and some people turn a blind eye to it."
"I don't want to become the latter."
Kieran said after a quick glance at his surroundings.
He sensed no malice.
However, he was also wary of Great Swamp's methods.
Temporary allies didn't mean lifelong allies.
If there was any conflict and they had to go against Great Swamp …
'I'll give you a piece of advice. Never fight a god who owns a city in the other's city!'
Unknowingly, Kieran thought of Rachel's reminder.
Great Swamp, who had been looking at Kieran all this while, shook his head.
"Are you always this vigilant?"
"We are allies now and I've signed a contract with you — a contract made in my father's name, it has quite a bit of power."
Great Swamp said.
"Quite isn't absolute."
"Just like how you are wary of another ally."
Kieran was referring to Rassho Temple.
Based on the conversation just now, Kieran didn't think Mu would lie.
"Mu?
It's not the same!
"My relationship with him is fundamentally different from yours."
Great Swamp shook his head and a sudden smile appeared in his eyes as he looked at Kieran.
He said, "Don't you think we are very similar?"
"Mm.
That's why we succeeded. "
"Although there was a slight accident."
Kieran nodded.
"Because of this slight accident, it determined the difference between you and him."
Great Swamp said calmly.
"You didn't know beforehand?"
Kieran was stunned.
From how Kieran saw it, it was only natural that Great Swamp knew about [Death Luck Devourer].
After all, this place was …
Flame City!
"If I knew, I would have told you. Given that I'm going against two Gods, I still have to hide something … I don't want to have to fight all three of them at once."
"That's right!
This is Flame City!
"And I am also the 'God' of Flame City!"
But you can't really expect me to be omniscient and omnipotent!
"No 'god' in any city can do it, and I'm no exception."
As though he saw through Kieran's thoughts, Great Swamp explained.
"So, what are you going to do?"
Kieran asked.
"Let nature take its course.
"A city shouldn't have two 'gods'."
But coincidentally, there is a city that needs a God right next door — Rassho Temple. All you have to do is pay a certain price and you can leave. "
Great Swamp said with a smile.
It shouldn't be. Kieran didn't sense any smile from Great Swamp's eyes or face.
Even that smile was ice-cold.
"Such as?"
Kieran asked in a testing manner.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt the people you know.
If I say it's friendship, you will scoff at it, so let me put it in another way — "
"Your strength is worth it for me to do this."
"An uncrowned comrade."
Great Swamp waved his hand and assured Kieran.
Then, Great Swamp continued, "Maybe I should give you a suggestion."
"What suggestion?"
Kieran raised a puzzled brow.
"Let your guard down!"
Can't you see that I am showing my goodwill to you for the sake of our next collaboration? "
Great Swamp laid his hands open and looked at Kieran helplessly.
"I'm sorry.
I'm used to it. "
Kieran shrugged.
"What a bad habit."
Great Swamp commented.
"It's better than death."
Kieran replied.
Great Swamp laughed at Kieran's reply.
"It would be great if you are really my brother!
Too bad that old geezer can't have any more heirs!
"But your bloodline is still special!"
Remember, you have to use him at all times!
When you … touch this place! "
Great Swamp raised his right hand and pointed at his temple with his index finger.
"Anything else?"
Kieran asked.
"Anything else?
Then let's talk about the next step of our collaboration.
Of course, before that, I've brought the payment for the previous collaboration and I'm willing to pay more for the unexpected success! "
Great Swamp said with a mysterious look.
A moment later, the unconscious Perforation Sting leader appeared beside Kieran's feet.
