Chapter 92 - Just Endure (2/2)

At the next instant after accepting the call, an extremely skinny old man with its skin color being a pale gray, appeared within the orb, giving Kurohana the shivers for a short bit.

Of course, with her relationship with the god in front of her not being that close, and with the fact that this god had greater control over their own law, Kurohana could not help but be respectful as she greeted, ”How do you do, God Animus.”

”Hm,” Animus replied with a gentle yet purposeful grunt. ”You know why I called you, right?”

”Yes, and I apologize for that.” Kurohana could only let out a sigh.

Animus was known as the God governing over the Law of the Soul, and he was pretty damn good at governing over this law. Of course, the reason why Animus called Kurohana was due to her using the Law of the Soul on the Soul Enchantment System she made.

”As long as you admit your mistakes, it's fine.” In an instant, Animus' voice became gentler to the ears. He then waved his right hand for a bit before clicking his tongue. ”Then again, your control over the Law of the Soul needs some work. As the Goddess of Reincarnation, shouldn't you at least have some basic control over souls?”

Kurohana could only stay silent as Animus continued to ramble on the call.

”As for the Soul Enchantment System you made, hmm…Soul Sigils eh? Definitely an interesting way to bolster the strength of a soul. You don't mind if I use this in the future, right?”

”I-I don't mind at all,” With Animus' strength being greater than her, Kurohana could only comply.

”Well, that's all I have to say. Next time you try to manipulate another god's law, you should notify them, okay?” With this as his last statement, Animus finally ended the call with Kurohana.

After the call with Animus ended, another god showed up at the instant the orb was not on call, revealing an extremely buff man that could be said to have the perfect body any woman would die to look for. As for Kurohana, she was indifferent to the man's body, but his strength was not something to laugh at due to the man's control over the Law of Improvement.

”How do you do, God Surp,” Kurohana respectfully greeted.

”You know what you did, right?” Surp did not greet her back, instead initiating the conversation with a question.

”Yes.” This was the only answer Kurohana could say.

”Although I respect you as a great craftswoman, you created a system that was not approved by me! I can accept the first system you made since you asked for permission at the instant you thought it up, but for this one, you did not even bother to ask me!”

”I—” Kurohana tried to refute Surp's statement, only to be interrupted by him.

”No buts. As compensation for not asking for my permission on creating another system, you shall make me a greatsword of the False Archaic grade at the very least, understand?”

”I…haah. I understand.” Seeing that the compensation was only for her to make a weapon of the False Archaic grade which she could craft within 10 minutes, she decided it was better for her to accept his terms.

”Good, I'll be waiting for it then.” After hearing Kurohana's confirmation, Surp's strict tone loosened up a bit before ending the call with her. It was only after Surp's call did Kurohana obtain her peace.

”Haah…one was understanding, one wanted to teach me, and one wanted to extort me. The first two gods were fine but I should really get stronger.” Kurohana let out a sigh as she slumped down on her chair, reminding herself to ask for the other gods' permission next time she was going to do something like this.

Whoosh!

All of a sudden, the sound of wind breezing could be heard from Kurohana's behind, making Kurohana stiffen up as she gradually turned her head around. Once her head was fully turned to look behind her, she could see a body that could be said to be adequately beautiful at most, but the face connected to the body was a face that could make whole continents fight for. Not only that, the aura radiating out of the body was an extremely mysterious aura, but with Kurohana's senses, she was incredibly familiar with this aura.

”B-B-B-Big Sis Phatia! W-W-What are you doing here?”
