The explanation the angel provided was lacking, but Crystal Hoarder was satisfied with it. The situation was very clear to her. Here she is pushing a cart of divine orbs when someone else became a true god.

It is obvious that if she had been earlier by a few minutes, she would have reached Gemmis earlier and become a true god. Now she has to go about looking for a true god out of the tens of thousands in the divine city. It is like searching for a needle in a haystack, but Crystal Board didn't complain about that.

She knew what she did and where it had led her. But that doesn't mean she will accept her lot so easily. That has never been her choice. She has always had her way. She doesn't want this situation to be any different, so she is not going to accept things as they are.

She nodded and said, "Good. I will find them and take back what's rightfully mine."

Being first or second wouldn't matter to her if she didn't know about the hidden reward that she got for being the first godling. That reward is what she cares about, and she is determined to get it back from the god that stole it from her.

Her reward can be taken or exchanged with others, so she expects theirs to be the same. All she needs to do is find them. Then she will use any means possible to get back that reward.

But first she continued on her way to her altar to become a true god. She has rented a room in a hotel there where she can be safe to perform the evolution.

She can't underestimate a true god, even if she can find them. Especially not the first of millions of god seeds to become a true god. That would be folly on her part. It would be extra folly if the reward this true god acquired is something dangerous.

No, she would do the smart thing by becoming a true god first. Then she would use all the divine orbs she has acquired to restore her strength to a certain level. Only then will she have the confidence in fighting and claiming the reward.

Soon another notification was heard in the Northern Realm.

-Regional Announcement.

-Congratulations to Crystal Hoarder for being the 2nd True God.

She gained the ability to create a Pantheon and to use the global communication system after becoming a true god. She noticed that there wasn't a Pantheon yet, so she created one so as to be the first.

-Determine the name of the Pantheon.

She did so.

-Consume 10,000 Divinity to create the Crystal Hoard Pantheon?

-Yes or No?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

She raored with dissatisfaction, "10,000 divinity? Is that too expensive?"

Her angel shrugged and said, "I don't make the rules."

She doesn't have 10,000 divinity after raising her level to 100 again. That had cost her 10,000 divinity, to be exact. But she wants to be the first true god to create a Pantheon, so she wasn't willing to give up.

"I bet the 9 Crowns don't have 10,000 divinity either. They are probably out hunting right now. I might be able to catch them if I am lucky."

Her angel advised, "The 9 Crowns might not be present in your divine city. They might be at the other 9 divine cities, so you might be disappointed."

"I know. That's why I said I might be able to catch them if I am lucky."

Her dour angel couldn't douse her enthusiasm. She went out immediately to hunt while looking for signs of a true god.

Unfortunately, she had no luck with the latter. As for the former, she was very successful at it. With ten times the divinity, she was able to bully godlings easily and take their divinity for herself.

Things might have been difficult for her if she were a level o true god, but she wasn't. She was able to get the 10,000 divinity she needed quickly and return to her altar to create her pantheon.

She was happy to find out that a Pantheon still hadn't been created, even after so long. She felt lucky about it, so she gritted her teeth and made the decision to invest the same amount of divinity in her level 100 true god divine body into making a Pantheon.

Thus, her pantheon, the Crystal Hoard, was created. Unfortunately, there was no announcement and no reward. It made her disappointed and very angry. It was with this great anger that she tried the global communication system.

The global communication system is a system that allows long distance communication between godlings and true gods. It can only be used by those with altars, so there are few people she could talk to. Fortunately, the only person she wants to talk to right now is accessible.

She went to the ranking list and selected the person's identity. Then she sent a request for an open channel. She didn't wait long before the request was accepted.

A voice came from the other side of the channel and appeared through her altar asking, "What do you want?"

She was a little dissatisfied that the person only allowed for a temporary audio communication, not an audiovisual one where she could see the appearance of the other party and their location. But she still replied imperiously, "I am the Crystal Hoarder. Need I say more?"

"I am the 9 Crowns. I'm guessing that's all you need to know too."

Her anger exploded immediately. She asked with a roar, "Are you toying with me? Do you know who I am? I am a fearsome dragon. You will bow to me and offer me your precious things."

A scoff came from the other side. "So it is a dragon. I have killed many of them. In fact, dragons are terrified of my name."

She laughed, "You dare lie to my face? Dragons are terrified of no one. We are the greatest and strongest."

Legion didn't bother to argue with this strange god. She doesn't know their true identity and how they were responsible for killing tens of thousands of dragons and destroying their home plane in his realm. They are not going to tell her either because that would be exposing their identity in the void universe. As beings of great power, they know that information is power and can be used to track people. So they don't want to be baited into revealing their identity. Instead, they want to end this conversation as quickly as possible.

So Legion-1, "I will repeat for the last time. What do you want?"

She was bristling, but she forced herself to calm down. Even so, she still maintained an imperious tone as she spoke. "I have created a Pantheon. You should join it. It will be in your favor to do so."

She spoke as if she were doing them a favor. She thinks she is, but unfortunately, the 9 Crowns don't think she is doing them a favor.

They replied with haughty ignorance, "No thanks."

She almost lost her restraint then. Still, she continued, "You don't know what's good for you, so I will make it easy for you. Hand over your reward for being the first true god, and I will let this be bygones."

Legion-1 asked with genuine surprise, "Why would I do that?"

She explained to the dumb creature, "Because I can be a very terrible enemy. Since you have refused to be my ally, it would be in your best interest not to make me your enemy."

"So you are not even offering money?"

She said with pride, "My promise not to hunt you to the ends of the divine realm is priceless." A reply didn't come. The channel was broken because the other side switched it off.

Crystal Hoarder's ugly face became uglyr as she scowled. But she wasn't angry anymore. Instead, her eyes were twinkling as she thought about the conversation they just had.

"This 9 Crowns sounds confident and proud. It could be because his achievement has gotten to his head or because he truly has something to rely on. Either way, he is not going to give up his reward without a fight."

"But this is good too. The higher the resistance, the greater the pleasure of snatching treasure. Let the dance begin."

Her eyes narrowed in thought as she began to scheme.

She actually meant well when she asked the 9 Crowns to join her Pantheon. The 9 Crowns would have had to offer his reward to her to enter because it is a tradition she intends to enforce for every god that wants her protection. After all, her Pantheon was created so that she would be able to create the biggest hoard. So it wouldn't be extortion. It would just be a rite of passage.

But the 9 Crowns didn't know what was good for himself. Now she has to put in more effort to get what she wants. It is a bad decision that is clearly going to lead to stressful consequences for the two of them.

The first thing she did was announce a bounty for any information about the 9 Crowns through the communication system. Unfortunately, that didn't lead anywhere because no one knows who the 9 Crowns is, much less consider that they are 9 gods as one.

The main effect of that bounty was that it spurred the gods into action. Many of them wanted to earn the prize of divinity, so they put in a lot of effort into searching for the 9 Crowns. Unfortunately, as things are, their efforts might go to waste because the 9 Crowns haven't left the safety of their hotel since they became true gods.

The second thing the crystal hoarder did was try to expand her Pantheon so that she would gain more wealth and power to find and fight the 9 Crowns. Unfortunately, there were not many true gods around that could join or create a Pantheon.

She had to wait a long while for the population of true gods to increase. But the god seeds that became true gods were too proud to surbodinate themselves to her. This became extra difficult to do when she was asking for a treasure for them to join her Pantheon. So that plan was a bust.

Days turned into weeks. Weeks into months. And months into a year.

Nothing major happened in the divine realm apart from the occasional regional announcements about the various achievements of others. Many of the god seeds managed to

build their altar after a year, and many more succeeded in becoming gods.

The gods have become used to numerous announcements. But then a special announcement drew everyone's attention.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

-Regional Announcement.

-4,000,000 god seeds have become Godlings.

-This marks the end of the trial period.

-The Ancient Titans have sensed the growing threat of the gods and have begun to awaken from their slumber.

-Prepare yourself for their imminent attack.

This announcement caught the gods off guard. They don't even know who the ancient titans are, much less how to prepare for their attacks. Fortunately, they had the divine spirit of their various divine cities to inform and mobilize the gods for the resistance.

Gemmis sent a message to every god-king. Legion also received the notification because they had finally created a Pantheon.

-You have been invited to the Divine Council of Gemmis.

-This is the inaugural session of the Divine Council.

-Do you accept the invitation?

-Yes or No.

Anyone of the clones could accept it, but they decided to send only one. Legion-1 accepted it and disappeared from the hotel. He appeared in a large domed cathedral with walls lined with stairs that reached the top. The stairs extend into platforms with thrones on them.

Legion-1 appeared in one of the thrones. Other god-kings also appeared after he arrived. They were busy examining each other and checking out their competition. They did so openly and sometimes with hostile gazes.

Legion-1 also checked out the competition from his throne. There was a lot of them to see, but only one in particular that he cared for. But he didn't stare at that particular true god. He behaved just like everyone else watching each other.

There were a lot of god kings in the Divine Council now that true gods are becoming the norm. In Gemmis alone, there are about 10,000 of them. That's 10% of the divine population of the divine city. This has made it so that there are about 1,000 god kings in the Divine Council.

He observed to himself, "It seems we are distributed at random. At least I don't see any order to our arrangement."

The seats line the platforms from the bottom of the cathedral to the top, but the gods sitting on them appeared to be at random because the gods near him are not orcs. They are elves and ogres.

It is unexpected to him because that's not how things were done in the divine plane realm of high heaven. Gods are either arranged in the order of their ascension, level of power, domains, or race. It all depended on the whims of the Celestial Supreme.

But he doesn't see any of such order around him. He should know since he is the first god and he also knows who the second true god is. But the second true god is nowhere near him, and there are no similarities between him and the god kings around him.

He didn't concern himself with that for long. Observing the similarities between him and other god kings is, after all, a false pretense. After he was done examining his true target, he switched to the Divine Council itself.

He could see down below because the center of the cathedral is empty. He could even fall over from his seat down to the bottom through the center. It would be easy to do as there is no railing or obstacle to stop him from plunging to what might be his death.

The gods were examining each other, but some of them wanted to do more than that. Especially one particular goblin goddess.

She stood up from her throne and yelled, "Which one of you is 9 Crowns? Show yourself!"

Some gods looked around, hoping to spot this reclusive god, but they were disappointed. No one stood up to claim the identity.

Crystal Hoarder was dissatisfied. She sneered and said, "Are you so cowardly? I expected more from the first true god. Didn't you claim that dragons are scared of you? Why don't I see the spine of a dragon killer in you?"

Someone spoke up. It was an orc. The orc said, "I have information about the 9 Crowns. I have come across his religion, so he should be an orc."

Crystal Hoarder asked excitedly, "Give me the location of his religion. I will pay you

handsomely. I'll pay anyone with useful information well."

Another orc spoke up, "I have never heard about him, but I'll look out for me."

One of the other orcs said, "I have, and I heard he is fearsome."

They began discussing the identity of the 9 Crowns while Legion-1 went ahead to exchange

the false information about the location of his religion with Crystal Hoarder.

He thought to himself in derision, "She didn't even ask for a contract. She must be so confident in herself."

He is the orc that spoke up first about coming into contact with the religion of the 9 Crowns. He did so to take advantage of the information others might have about him to earn some money and mislead Crystal Hoarder.

In a year, they have done well for themselves in the mortal realm. Their religion is expanding rapidly, so it is a matter of time before information about the nation of orcs that they are building will become known to the public. So he might as well earn something before that time comes. 1,000 divinity gold is not something he can disregard at this point.

This conversation was just one of many going on. But soon the cathedral fell into silence when what appeared to be a large gem appeared in the middle of the gods.

The gem looked different from every direction, but anyone who gazed at it would admit that it was beautiful. Crystal Hoard in particular was entranced by it.

The Gem said to them, "Greetings. I am the divine spirit of Gemmis. I am to be the moderator of the divine council."

"The divine council is where decisions that will affect the whole divine city will be voted on. As the king of gods, you represent the will of the other gods and, as such, are qualified to have a say in the affairs of the divine city."

"This is the inaugural session of the divine council, so you are not familiar with the rules. I will give your angels permission to make it known to you now."

It waited a few seconds for them to have a chat with their angels. Then it resumed its duty.

"On to the first agenda. The matter of rankings. It is time to decide if the city is to begin paying those at the top of the ranking for their excellence. You god kings can vote to allow it or prevent it."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Take note that allowing it will also enable me to grant quests. One of those quests is the quest for domain. So please consider this agenda carefully before you vote. If you have any questions, direct them to your angels."

"You have a minute to consider. You can either vote Yes, No, or Abstain. The agenda will pass when there are more votes in its favor than those against it. If you don't vote after 1 minute, you would have automatically abstained from voting."

A prompt appeared in front of every god king. It displayed the three options for them. They have a minute to make a decision or a decision to abstain will be made for them.
