Chapter 873: Vol V Chapter 233
“Are you totally adapted?”
“Yes, totally adapted,” Leon replied. He moved his body, then smiled and said, “It’s a wonderful feeling. Whether it’s my perspective of how I look at the world or the feeling of how I see myself, everything is different.
“The feeling is always very weird before you get used to it. But after you get adapted to it, you will only feel… pleasure. Haha, pleasure, that is the feeling!” Leon said as he laughed a little louder. “That fellow, Shoggoth, has a point. Pleasure! How very pleasurable!”
Sui Xiong could not help laughing as he said, “I think you still need some more time to adapt.”
“Why?”
“Look around you.”
Leon froze for a moment, then noticed that without him realizing, many feathers had appeared in his surroundings and were drifting randomly about in the air. These feathers simply refused to fall to the ground. From these feathers, he could feel an amiable Divine Power that was connected to him by blood. The feeling was as natural as breathing.
This was basically his own Divine Power!
“What?!”
“Stop lamenting. You simply have yet to truly master your own power at all!” Sui Xiong said and laughed. “I remember when I first arrived on the continent, I was also like you. Accidentally, I created a big hole in the ground. Every place I passed by, a large patch of trees would fall. I was just like a tornado in transit.”
“And then?” Leon asked with great interest.
“And then, of course, I gradually adapted to it.”
Leon shrugged his shoulders and expressed a slight dissatisfaction at this ending, that was just not interesting enough.
“Maybe you can make up for my shortcomings. Just go to the human world like this, make many jokes of yourself,” Sui Xiong smiled mischievously and added, “This way, your descendants will be very happy. Their great ancestor is not only wise and powerful but has also left many popular stories of humor.”
Leon’s smile instantly froze on his face.
“Perhaps many years from now, the descendants of the Igor family—or maybe the Garth family—will talk about their great ancestor, His Majesty, Leon, at dinner time. They will say, ‘Ah, this ancestor must have been a person with a heart full of joy to have been so tireless in coming up with all kinds of jokes’…”
No, only you can be like this. I’m a very stern and serious person!
Because he had already stepped into the Demigod Realm, Leon’s mental activities were not seen through by Sui Xiong. But from the expression on his face, Sui Xiong could almost guess what was on his mind.
“How you think is not important. The great power of time will leave only the most interesting or ridiculous parts of the story,” he continued. “I once heard a story about a man who was very brave. At war, he was always the one who led the way. During one of the battles, the leather strap of his armor broke. Because it was inconvenient, he simply took off his armor and went on fighting. At his time, the armors were not as ingeniously designed. There was no way he could wear any underwear. So taking off his armor would naturally mean he was naked. His enemy was a valiant warrior and did not want to be at an advantage because of armor. He simply took off his armor and fought against his opponent naked. What do you think of the story?”
“They were certainly warriors. But aren’t they a little too stubborn?” Leon said after giving it some thought. Then he said, “Isn’t it more practical to put on one’s armor and kill the opponent in one strike?”
Sui Xiong laughed, then asked, “So do you know how people evaluate these two warriors after almost 2000 years?”
“Should be something like what I said. They can’t be foolish enough to praise this act of taking off one’s armor on the battlefield.”
Sui Xiong smiled mysteriously and said, “As far as I know, the later generations have given them names like ‘Pioneers of the Celestial Bodies’ Movement’ and ‘Pioneers of Nude Physical Combat.'”
