Having acquired the body of a god, the Fantasy Knight, who had swelled into a silver giant, finally revealed his true, all-powerful strength.
The fantasies born from the faith of many believers have indeed surpassed the life that a planet can create—perhaps this is what 'gods' should look like.
"Human imagination, the possibility of life... it certainly seems plausible."
After making a somewhat sarcastic comment, Zhou Mu covered his chest with a bitter expression.
He knew perfectly well what the self-proclaimed god had just done, and he truly had no power to stop it... Just as he himself had said, he was now nothing more than a physical record.
He had never possessed the power to directly fight others before, so even in this state, things that didn't exist wouldn't appear out of thin air.
So that's how it is. You were just borrowing the power of that foreign object?
Another voice from the depths of his heart made him sigh helplessly.
"So, you think this is the correct answer?"
[Ha, if a weak soul like yours can become an agent, then a more powerful soul should possess even greater power, right?]
"……Ugh."
After a deep sigh, Zhou Mu turned his gaze back to the giant god before him.
The shadowy figure born from the traces of memory now stood before him—the way it held a long sword and confronted the enormous enemy seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
Those are the marks that remain etched in one's soul even if one loses their memory, and they are also the guiding principles and meaning of one's existence in the world.
"I'm asking you... is there someone you can't forget?"
What's the point of asking this question? Only ants care about the appearance of other crawling creatures.
The answer that came from his heart was not unexpected, so he just smiled bitterly twice and did not continue to talk about the topic.
At this moment, the silver giant finally began to move... and Zhou Muye felt his body begin to stiffen.
[Heh—how does it feel to gradually lose control of your body? Soon, your power will be completely mine.]
Don't you have your own life?
Life? Only a foolish mortal like you would care about such a meaningless thing—I am destined to become a god, and only the power to control everything has value!
Such an answer is certainly not unexpected—because the pursuit of power is also part of human nature.
However, Zhou Mu did not seem satisfied with this answer.
"Supreme power... Now that you truly possess such power, what do you intend to do?"
You'll never understand—how wonderful it is to have the world revolve around your desires.
"...Even the most fun toys will eventually become tiresome."
The two people's ideas were incompatible, so it was impossible for them to understand each other.
Zhou Mu paid no attention to his body, which was becoming increasingly uncontrollable. He simply stared calmly at the dark figure confronting the giant knight, revealing an expression as if he were trying to recall something.
“I don’t remember who she is anymore… but I know she is a very important person to me.”
Even if he lost his memory, Zhou Mu's soul would still flutter because of that familiar figure.
So he quickly realized that he was still fundamentally different from that god.
"Sigh... This is probably a weakness that only 'humans' have."
After saying those words, he completely lost control of his body.
……
"That's right, 'human beings' are just weak life forms—only by submitting to the domination of God can they have the right to survive."
The covenant's deity has possessed from the beginning the ability to imitate the soul characteristics of others and seize their bodies.
Foreign souls that do not belong to a body are not normally able to manipulate the bodies of others—but the God of the Covenant possessed this special ability when he was still human.
He can alter his soul characteristics to be exactly the same as the original owner of the body, thereby vying for or inheriting control of the body. And after completely controlling another person's body, he will also completely absorb the abilities and experience remaining in that body.
...And the worst part is that, regardless of whether the original owner of the body still has a soul, he can forcibly expel it.
"You are just a mortal living on an ordinary planet, and you can't possibly understand what it feels like to have power."
Therefore, the Holy Covenant God, who had previously taken the opportunity to infiltrate Zhou Mu's body, has now basically gained control of the body.
"So that's how it is. That foreign object just left a mark on your soul—as long as I also have such a mark, I won't be corrupted anymore."
After taking control of Zhou Mu's body, the God of the Covenant quickly copied the characteristics of Zhou Mu's soul.
He quickly understood why Zhou Mu was able to use that strange power, and also understood why the strange object had summoned him—so he directly expelled Zhou Mu's soul from his body.
"Ha, ha ha ha ha—that's right, that's it! Your power is now completely mine!"
However, at that moment, the dark figure that had been confronting the giant knight suddenly teleported nearby and caught the wisp of light that had been expelled from the body.
Then, a bizarre scene unfolded.
"……what?"
The woman, who was clearly just a shadow, made a surprisingly human gesture—she first solemnly cupped the faint radiance in her left hand, and then the shadow that appeared in her hand enveloped the radiance within it.
Finally, she solemnly and slowly placed the radiant, dark object into her chest.
[...I still remember that feeling.]
As the radiance finally merged into the body of the female shadow, the hollow and ethereal sigh echoed once more in this chaos.
She... must be a very important person to me.
Although the exact characteristics could no longer be discerned, the emotions contained in the voice were not much different from before.
I must find her—even if it costs me everything.
—That is the purest emotion, belonging only to humankind.
"Although I don't understand why you can still make a sound, you should just disappear—you predator of the planet, devour it!"
Having completely lost patience, the god finally used his newly acquired power.
And so, countless twisted, alien maws sprang forth once more from the silent, chaotic sea—those bizarre creatures capable of devouring even the core of a planet—and, under the command of the gods, pounced upon their enemies.
Therefore, you fool, bound by worldly desires, will not stop me from taking my place.
However, the soul that possessed another's body was not a true 'god'—
[I have already paid the price... So, let it manifest in my imagination for a moment, 'Lord of the Black Abyss'—■·■■!]
