Ominis.
The origin of the world, the pinnacle of the Divine Race, heralded as the omnipotent, Supreme Goddess.
Such an existence had, by now, become merely a legend.
Yet, at this very moment, Shane saw her, saw this Supreme Goddess lying amidst the flowers, deep in slumber.
But, that was not what shocked Shane the most.
What truly astonished him was the appearance of this legendary Goddess.
“You all…”
Shane glanced at the sleeping Goddess and then at Nien, his expression speechless.
There was no helping it.
The Supreme God Ominis, as mentioned by Nien, looked exactly like her.
But Nien, looking at the Goddess in the flowers who bore her exact image, had only a cold gaze, even tinged with a trace of hatred.
“I know what you’re thinking,” Nien said indifferently, “There’s a reason we look exactly the same.”
However, that reason, Nien seemed unwilling to discuss.
Shane could feel that this was a subject not to be touched upon.

Thus, he suppressed the doubts in his heart and asked,
“What’s wrong with her then?”
Seeing Supreme God Ominis’ sleeping form, something must have happened, right?
As Shane thought this, Nien scoffed.
“Do you think something happened to her?” Nien spoke sarcastically, “How could that be? She is the omnipotent Supreme God, the most supreme being. Who could make her stumble, except Demon King Clatis?”
“…Then what’s going on with her now?” Shane fell silent for a while before asking, “Is she just simply asleep?”
The response he received, however, was affirmative.
“Yes, she is just merely sleeping, and she has been asleep for a thousand years.”
The sarcasm on Nien’s face didn’t fade; it only intensified.
“In that Goddess’s eyes, everything in the world, apart from Demon King Clatis, is nothing more than a roadside stone.”
“Because everything was created by her, everything is dominated by her. She can manipulate any life and event at will; she can even easily modify the world in a flick of her fingers.”
“Therefore, she doesn’t regard anything as important, nor does she keep anything in her sight. The only one who can catch her interest is Demon King Clatis.”
As she spoke, Nien’s voice began to turn resentful.
“Despite having been born with the sole desire to defeat Demon King Clatis, to destroy Clatis, her only natural enemy and threat, once her purpose was achieved, she lost interest in everything else.”
“Having lost her only obsession, her only passion, does she consider this world, which she could form at a whim, worthy of her regard or attention?”
“No, not at all.”
Nien turned her gaze towards Shane.
“Thus, that woman chose deep sleep, believing that the running of this world no longer necessitated her presence, nor did it need her intervention.”
“With that thought, since the birth of the Divine World, she has never woken up; she just lies there, coexisting with the world, existing eternally.”
“Are you stunned? Are you lost for words?”
“But this is the Supreme God, this is the omnipotent Ominis, a truly transcendent deity, whose thoughts and views are different from ours, from ordinary people.”
“Remarkable, isn’t it?”
By this point, Nien’s tone had become quite unsettling.
Her tone, resentful of something, or as if mourning something, left Shane at a loss for words.
Shane just wanted to know one thing.
“Why did you summon me here, exactly?”
Shane asked what he most wanted to know.
More than the detachment of Supreme God Ominis, more than the relationship between Nien and that Goddess, Shane wanted to know this.
In response, Nien reined her emotions, looked steadily at Shane, and then finally answered truthfully,
“I said I wanted you to defeat the Demon King.” Nien spoke, “You might think I’m lying, but this is a fact.”
“A fact?” Shane furrowed his brow in doubt, “But the Demon King has already been defeated and cannot be resurrected unless something happens to Supreme God Ominis; she will never reappear in the world, right?”
“Yes,” Nien nodded but then said, “However, just because the Demon King cannot be resurrected, doesn’t mean a new one won’t emerge.”
“A new one?” Shane was initially stunned, then his expression changed.
He probably guessed what Nien meant.
Sure enough…
“Some are trying to give rise to a new Demon King, to replace the irredeemable old Demon King, to lead the Demon Clan anew and start a war against the Divine Race and Human Race.”
Nien spoke clearly and deliberately,
“Do you know why I called you here at this time?”
The reason was simple.
“Because you have already touched upon these secrets.”
Nien’s words instantly reminded Shane of that half-human half-centipede creature.
That creature couldn’t possibly be…
“Don’t worry, that one is merely a monster for now; it won’t become a Demon King,” Nien preemptively reassured Shane, then continued, “But given the current progress, even if a new Demon King isn’t born, the balance of God, Human, and Demon Three Realms and Three clans will be stirred up by the hidden hand behind this, very likely triggering a war that had ceased for a millennium, posing a threat to this world.”
With this in mind, Nien had summoned Shane.
“Who is this hidden mastermind?”
Shane immediately asked.
“I do not know,” Nien shook her head and said, “I have discovered this situation but haven’t found out who the mastermind is. I can only be sure that they are definitely a member of the Old Demon Clan Faction and hold a significant position within the Demon Clan.”
Shane’s brows deepened even more.
The cause was not only because of this sudden situation but also because Shane was unsure whether he should trust Nien.
Of course, Nien had already discerned this thought in Shane.
Therefore, she approached Shane.
Shane watched this incredibly beautiful Goddess as if trying to see through her heart.
But just then, Nien reached out, wrapped her arms around Shane’s neck, and pulled his head down with a forceful tug.
“…!?”
Shane’s eyes widened, filled with shock and disbelief.
“Mm…”
Nien had already closed her eyes, her tempting, red lips touching Shane’s.
An intensely passionate and fierce kiss descended upon Shane and Nien, making them seem like a couple in the throes of passionate love, filled with ambiguity.
It was a while before Nien, with moistened lips, departed from Shane, looking at him still in shock, her face blushing while she smiled sweetly.
“Whether or not you believe me is for you to decide.”
Nien murmured softly.
“I just hope you understand, you are the one I’ve waited for a thousand years, and you are my only reliance.”
Leaving such words behind, Nien waved her hand, causing the space around to distort.
Shane then disappeared inside the Temple, as if he had never been there.
