This has always been the truth that Kane resists the most deep within his heart.

From the very beginning, Kane wasn't important; he was merely a consciousness born to deceive the sealing ceremony, and could be discarded once his mission was accomplished.

"It was you who made me see another possibility."

Kane said sincerely, "You made me pick up the parts that belonged to 'humans' and even gave me courage."

He could easily return to the Empire after the Ophira incident, wandering through major cities as before, or find another civilization on the brink of collapse, stirring the people there to satisfy his desires.

But in his view, that would become the past Kaisaros.

Trapped in an unknown place, seeking fulfillment through illusory "stories."

In the world of illusions, victory is meaningless.

It can't change the past or the current situation of the Gods; it's just a way of self-delusion.

For Kane, the dungeon still has a mess left unfinished.

"So to thank you, I plan to give you an opportunity."

Human growth is about overcoming immature pasts.

But not everyone passes trials; as humans, they know that nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory, and they eventually accept the facts.

"If I fail in the trial, if the consciousness of Kaisaros dominates during the fusion, that will be His weakest moment because the power of humans is limited."

Kane's tone was candid.

At this moment, he became the one who rebels against destiny.

Somewhere in this world, Kaisaros left a gap leading to the "treasury" for him.

"Kane, you..."

"I'm not becoming a God, Ethan!"

Those determined eyes.

No matter what, Kaisaros will end.

Either be merged with him, or die at Ethan's hands after a failed fusion.

At this moment, he, Kane, as a human, wrote the fate of an Old God.

............

"Do you think he was telling the truth?"

After saying goodbye to Kane, Lindong couldn't help but ask.

Her heart was pounding intensely; she felt that the world had once again become thrilling.

To eliminate an Old God.

This is an entirely unknown field, even Anapolis knows nothing about it; their lives are endless, ever since they gained consciousness they have reigned above all creatures, and now almost all the spells and extraordinary powers humans use come from them.

Anapolis finds it hard to imagine any spell could substantially harm a true God, let alone kill them.

Before parting, both parties made agreements and left phones for timely communication.

They adopted a strategy of dividing forces; Kane would seek the gap left by Kaisaros.

Yet Lindong had to consider that this might be Kane's delaying tactic, if they acted now, as Lilith said, in his weakest state he couldn't oppose her and Ethan at all, even with the trait of immortality, might still be re-sealed.

"I don't know."

Ethan shook his head.

As a friend, he tends to believe Kane's words.

"I'll go to keep an eye on him."

Lindong said thoughtfully.

"No need." Ethan stopped her, "Regarding the matter of the magic network, there may be parts that require your personal input."

Upon hearing this, Lindong sighed.

She always felt Ethan has a broad mind, if it were others, upon learning these truths, they would surely keep a tight guard over Kane, ensuring his every move was under their surveillance, even killing all risks in the cradle.

Lindong didn't have any special opinions about Kane, unlike Ethan who excels at "making friends," able to talk to every Old God he has encountered.

Moreover, those Old Gods' attitudes towards Ethan always made her feel as though Ethan was like a succubus.

Initially it was Old Ba, then Old An.

Now even Kaisaros and Sincaro are deeply entangled.

Thinking about this, Lindong carefully scrutinized Ethan.

He just looks like a human youth, nothing particularly special, she couldn't understand just what attracts the Old Gods to Ethan.

Even thinking back, she quickly liked the feeling when interacting with Ethan during their time in Ximu Town.

"Although Kane said this world is woven by Kaisaros, and the subhumans and Elemental Shapers here theoretically are projections of His memory, playing the role of puppets, but the magic network part is indeed very referential, they were once the greatest enemy of Kaisaros's followers."

The power of Magic, the way of casting Elemental spells, all reenact the scenes of war.

"I think rather than magic networks, you should consider what if Kane deceived us?"

"I hope what he said is all true."

"Hope?"

Lindong was a bit speechless.

She admitted as an observer, Ethan's previous discussion with Kane seemed very genuine, they not only detailed their plans but Kane even half-jokingly asked if his current Empire would accept a retired Old God, seeing the cabinet is in need of personnel who are adept in warfare to handle foreign wars.

Despite the stability of the Empire's situation, it can't change the overall development of this world.

The tensions between countries are intensifying; just one spark is enough to ignite a war sweeping across the world.
