"Look! Just look at it!"

Like a wild dog off its leash, having fled who knows how far in an instant, the terrified Blackbird clasped his hands, feeling his again surging strength, and couldn't help but cry with a wry smile:

"I've become stronger! I've become stronger again!"

"..."

"Now, if we were to exclude the truth, the two of you together probably wouldn't be able to beat me! Isn't this a disaster!!!"

"..."

"What did I say before? What did I say? You can't provoke the Food God! If you can stay far away from him, that's the best! How about it now? How about it now?!"

"..."

Now... now the Food God, other than the Father, probably wants to gnaw on whoever he likes.

Thinking back on the tragic howls of the Dream Resting Master, being devoured bite by bite amidst the wails, leaving not even a trace behind, the Green and Red Kings couldn't help but exchange glances and saw the same fear in each other's eyes.

They were naturally familiar with the origin of Leon's name "Food God," but knowing something and witnessing it firsthand are two different matters, at least in terms of impact.

Especially since not long ago he was so arrogant, nearly swallowing the Dream Resting Master, but all of a sudden was "turned around," facing a long death spanning two and a half months, truly sending chills down the spines of the Green and Red Kings.

Others don't matter, but for the two of us who are mortal enemies of the humans! Only one can survive! If one day we do fall into the mouth of the Food God, we would probably die more miserably than the Dream Resting Master! Moreover...

I even threatened him with his sister, the Food God!

Recalling the few encounters with Leon, especially the time on Heavenly Mountain when using Melanie to force Leon to hand over [lifespan], Omnia Cicada felt a tingling on the scalp, as if a pair of gleaming eyes were staring right at him, ready to pounce at any moment.

"Stay calm first..."

Sensing the extremely chaotic thoughts of Omnia Cicada, and the fear spreading within those thoughts, the Crimson King hurriedly patted his old friend on the back, firmly calming down:

"The Food God is indeed somewhat... unexpected, but no matter how special he is, only the Father can achieve ultimate victory!

Even if the Food God completely devoured the Dream Resting Master and gained the remnants of the Sea Abyss Dominator's origin, he only has the 3, 7, and 9 origins, and of the Sea Abyss Dominator's origin, he obtained only a small part.

But the Father, before he even set out from the mortal realm, already stripped the origins of the Sea Abyss Realm, Ten Thousand Evil Abyss, Insufficient Village, Shadow Pot Realm, Shepherd's Plain, five complete material planes, in sheer volume it surpasses the Food God by more than double, so the Father can't possibly lose!"

Yes, you're right; the Father absolutely can't lose to the Food God, that I understand... but what about me? The Food God can't defeat the Father, but can't he gnaw me as well?

"Right, the Food God... is not to be feared!"

Reluctantly echoing back a sentence, Omnia Cicada couldn't help but take a deep breath, then said with a worried look:

"But what about the Father's orders? Previously, the Father told us to guard outside the Dream Ravine, find a way to slightly hinder the victor after the Food God and Dream Resting Master settled their battle..."

Block? How to block? Use my body to block the Food God's tongue and give him a meal supplement?

"It's not like we don't want to block; the key is we just can't..."

After a slight throb in his throat, the equally dilemma-entrenched Crimson King hesitantly asked:

"After all, we are the Father's most outstanding Pillars, one of only four existences with a chance to transcend. Shouldn't there be some leniency? And it's not like we deliberately failed this mission; the enraged Food God indeed can't be stopped, won't the Father... she probably won't hold it against us, right?"

"Oh, she will."

Behind the Green and Red Kings, the Blackbird said eerily:

"Your Father, despite having a good temper, is still quite petty in nature; you will definitely be punished for this failure to perform,"

"Shut up!"

Hearing the Blackbird behind them mock both Father and themselves made the already terrified Green and Red Kings flare with anger, turning their heads to glare at the Blackbirds behind them:

"And do you qualify to evaluate the Father?... Wh-why are there two of you?"

"What, changed the appearance and now you don't recognize me?"

The one who just spoke among the two "Blackbirds" chuckled, then slightly shrank back into her original form of Fredri, subsequently looking up at the taller-than-herself Green and Red Kings, asking with a smile:

"The Blackbird isn't qualified to judge me, but surely I am qualified to judge myself, right?"

Father?!

Seeing the suddenly appearing Fredri, the Green and Red Kings couldn't help but leap in fright, hurriedly and fearfully apologizing:

"We..."

"It's okay, no need to apologize if you wanted to change, you would have done so long ago, not waiting until now to plead guilty to me."

Seemingly in a very good mood, Fredri said with a smile:

"But it's alright that you didn't block it, to begin with; my expectation for you was just to give a little help if the conditions were right; I never hoped you truly would do something for me, and the fact that you've endured till now without fleeing makes me quite happy."

"?!!!"

Listening to Fredri's evaluation, the Green and Red Kings and the Blackbird couldn't help but tighten their hearts, inwardly deeming the situation serious, fearing this time there would be no easy way out.
