After the ritual was finished drawing, Aslan sent Pandora back to the Underworld, then walked to the sofa beside him.
He leaned back on the sofa very relaxedly, tilting his head toward Athena.
"Just as we expected—with Melqart as the intermediary, we can fully usurp all Divine Authorities and his existence through the Circle of Usurpation."
"And after I reinforced it with the ritual, the Circle of Usurpation can fully seize the Domain of Immortality through Melqart."
"Even seizing the entire Phoenician Mythology is possible."
Athena didn't respond immediately, instead flipping through the Little Garden information Aslan gave her on her phone, and data on Aslan's mythology usurpation.
Athena's movement paused briefly as she checked the data.
"The Domain of Immortality represents actual mythology. If the Domain of Immortality is seized, then what about the mythology?"
After learning about Little Garden, Athena realized how huge the risk was in the suggestion she gave earlier.
Seizing an entire mythology—she really dared to think it.
Considering she and Aslan were already in the same boat, she didn't want Aslan to take such a risk.
She felt it was good enough just helping him become the fourth-generation King of Gods, while slightly disrupting Christian faith.
"Small matter—don't I just need to rewrite the mythology?"
Aslan leaned on the sofa, playing with his phone, and said without looking up.
"Things like this, no matter how big, aren't bigger than the impact caused by observing this world."
Athena fell silent for a moment. Somehow, shouldering the fate of an entire multiverse alone was a bit too abstract.
But she had no choice but to follow Aslan.
Otherwise, her world would only have one outcome—destroyed along with her existence by those Two-Digits, leaving nothing.
"Then, this servant has a suggestion. You can place the fictional mythology you create in the sea of consciousness that is the common bed of all life on this planet."
"The Underworld?"
Aslan turned and glanced at Athena. Though the Underworld was very suitable, based on the Underworld's properties—
Its dream-like nature, where one could teleport anywhere just by thinking—wasn't a good place to store mythology.
As for the Domain of Immortality, it existed in a higher-dimensional space.
"It can be called the Underworld, but the more accurate term is a deeper place."
Athena nodded and carefully explained.
"The consciousness of Divine Ancestors during reincarnation is stored there. It can also be said to be the common storage of all life consciousness."
"Generally, even Gods still in the Underworld cannot reach that place."
"Oh? Star Sea?"
Aslan showed an expression of understanding.
"Calling it that isn't wrong."
Athena nodded slightly.
"Then this will be very easy. We just need to build a mythology that puts Gods to sleep, located in the Star Sea."
Aslan smiled relaxedly. This indeed wasn't difficult for him.
"Just needs one page after Mythology Apocrypha is formed."
Mythology Apocrypha was the Divine Authority Artifact Aslan planned to create through History and Script Authorities, plus Mythology obtained from seizing this world's Domain of Immortality through the Circle of Usurpation.
Then combining the three Authorities of History, Mythology, and Akashic together.
In Aslan's plan, Mythology Apocrypha was similar to Unofficial History that could alter history and create fictional history at will.
Only Mythology Apocrypha was more targeted at mythology. And in Little Garden, it could even be used to permanently adjust the Spirit Status of Gods and Buddhas.
This was a Fiction Historian's Authority Artifact combining strengthening, weakening, downgrading, hoax, and summoning.
Of course, it also had the ability to briefly make fictional mythology reality.
This was a Divine Artifact created with all mythologies from one multiverse. It was natural for it to have this ability.
"However, the only problem now is the distance between Domains of Immortality is too far. Even within one mythology, there are different Domains of Immortality."
Saying this, Aslan frowned and said with slight difficulty.
"For example, Japanese Mythology. Just Domains of Immortality alone include Takamagahara and Yomotsu Hirasaka."
"No need to make it that complicated. Different Domains of Immortality under the same mythology are interconnected."
Athena smiled lightly and said softly.
"You're not a God of this world. Since you've never lived in the Domain of Immortality, you don't know about the connections between Domains of Immortality."
"If explained in simpler terms, one mythology is one world, and different Domains of Immortality are just different islands in that world."
"As long as your goal is the entire mythological world, then you don't need to worry about Domain of Immortality issues."
Saying this, Athena looked up at Aslan and said.
"And with your current power, seizing an entire mythological world won't take long."
"If this servant's estimation isn't wrong, at latest three days later, the Phoenician Mythology world will be completely seized."
"Rather than worrying about this, you should worry about how to seize other mythologies."
Athena smiled lightly and reminded Aslan.
"Like Greek Mythology, you can do it through this servant. Celtic Mythology you can do too, but what about other mythologies?"
"Aren't there still those God Slayers?"
Saying that, Aslan narrowed his eyes and looked out the window.
"However, things like this don't need to be rushed, and don't you still have many God Divinities?"
"After one mythology is seized, just alter their Divinities, then it's done."
"Like Verethragna—he's the Persian Mythology War God, while also Indra, Indian Sky Emperor."
"He can be used for many mythologies in one God, right?"
The only weakness was that this efficiency was too low—only one drain hole.
And this pool had to be drained first before the next pool could be drained.
Hearing Aslan's description, Athena narrowed her eyes and seriously calculated.
"Then I alone would be enough. It just might take more than a year."
"And there might be very large retaliation."
After all, Athena as the great Triple Goddess had alter egos in many mythologies, all occupying high positions.
But the highest position remained in Greek Mythology.
"Better to just choose God Slayers. Spending a year in this world is quite torturous."
Aslan yawned and said with slight fatigue.
At least God Slayers in a certain sense were still subordinates of the Circle of Usurpation. Just needed slight modification of the Circle of Usurpation data in their bodies.
Hearing this, Athena looked at him somewhat helplessly.
"I hope this time, when facing those God Slayers, you won't be as slow as when facing Pandora."
Athena complained about Aslan's slow behavior when dealing with Pandora.
"Relax—with previous experience, this time I can fully hack into the Circle of Usurpation spell in their bodies through Magic-Tech."
At this moment, Aslan said smiling.
"The time definitely won't exceed three seconds."
"Then earlier you…"
Athena's current expression was slightly strange.
(If you can hack into others' bodies, then why did you do those things… to Pandora?)
Feeling Athena's strange gaze, Aslan said with a flat face.
"First time, to gather experience. And I also wanted to research Goddess body structure."
"You explain this reason to Pandora yourself."
Athena glanced at Aslan, then said annoyed.
"However, if you're so eager to research Goddess body structure, then don't you want to research Heretic God body structure?"
Athena looked at him with her pitch-black snake eyes and gently licked her lips.
Her ally—or rather, her trump card—liked beauty. This wasn't bad news for her.
She almost thought Aslan was a man without desire who only sought pleasure.
Even facing beauty like Algol that she considered excessive, Aslan could still restrain himself.
This made her very doubtful of Aslan's sexual orientation.
As the Goddess of Wisdom, Athena knew her situation well. Now her life was in Aslan's hands.
But she had no bargaining power equal to Aslan.
To Aslan, Athena might just be a disposable chess piece.
Her only value might be as a substitute for that Athena, and since she was also a homolog of Athena and Algol, she even became a target?
Athena really disliked the feeling of fate not being in her own hands.
This reminded her of how she was oppressed and had her Divinity stolen by those Steel Heroes.
Metis' Divinity swallowed, Medusa's Divinity beheaded.
That helpless feeling—she didn't want to experience it a second time.
After all, Athena was very greedy. After seeing Little Garden—the true stage for Gods, Buddhas, and Asura.
Especially after seeing the achievements of the other Athena.
She was no longer satisfied with the conditions she agreed to with Aslan before. She also wanted to become an exalted King of Gods.
She also wanted to step toward the highest peak, one step at a time!
Why could the other Athena do it, but not her?
If possible, she even wanted to replace that Athena, becoming the fourth-generation King of Gods of the Greek Pantheon in Little Garden.
What was interesting about being King of Gods in this world? If wanting to be King of Gods, be the Pantheon Ruler!
Of course, she also knew this was almost impossible for her to achieve. The gap between her and the other Athena was too large.
Like a dragonfly before the blue sky.
But dreams must exist—what if they come true?
And the first step now was to raise her status in Aslan's heart—from a toy to entertain Algol to Aslan's toy!
She, Stupid Adina (Athena of this world), also had ambition!!
"…"
Of course, Aslan was also quite curious about Heretic God body structure.
Finally, he reached a conclusion.
"Heretic Gods do taste good."
