"No, it's possible, and I've already set the plan in motion. Therefore, Konrad, as long as you listen to me, you're doomed to become this world's ruler. World G.o.ds are different from the average higher realm deity.
Because of the inherent difficulty of polis.h.i.+ng a G.o.dly Foundation in a mortal world, their talent doesn't lose out to the higher realms' elite.
Moreover, with the faith power of billions empowering them, their battle-power is leagues above the average G.o.d at the same level. As a matter of fact, besides invincible deities like the kings of h.e.l.l, not many can contend with a World G.o.d at the same level.
I need your help to fulfill my end of the bargain and receive additional boons. You need my help to reach that alt.i.tude."
Gulistan declared, the rippling confidence within her jet-black eyes clear for all to see.
"Between the two of us, there may be no genuine mother-son relations.h.i.+p, but with our aligning goals, why can't we become our most trusted partners?"
Though the words sounded like honey, Konrad remained undisturbed.
"Is what she says correct?"
He asked the system while keeping his eyes focused on his interlocutor.
"Indeed. When you reach a certain level in the main quest, you should obtain your own gate to the higher realms. Therefore, you can ignore her words and once ready, head to the Infernal Realm to carry on with your cultivation.
However, if you do that, you can forget about your dreams of supremacy. At the very least, you'll never catch up to your father in a lifetime."
The Flame-Mark's categoric statement caused a frown to form on Konrad's face.
"Not just Talroth, the mightiest G.o.ds of the Infernal Realm are all Race Primogens. Born deities, straight from the essence of h.e.l.l at various moments in history. They have cultivated for either millions or billions of years, and their name spread throughout countless mortal worlds.
As a matter of fact, there is no mortal world that doesn't know at least one Primogen under a name or another. You can thus imagine that besides their peerless foundation, the faith power they wield must have reached a dreadful level.
Even Asmodeus who has long since been overthrown and became Talroth's slave is still wors.h.i.+ped in some backwater worlds. Therefore, if you want to surpa.s.s them, at the very least, you should first become a World G.o.d."
Konrad nodded. The Race Primogens were all born at a rank he was still aspiring to. Konrad wasn't so conceited as to think himself their equal, yet. Moreover, this might be challenging for others, but with his unique skillset, Konrad didn't doubt that time was the only barrier he faced.
