"Well, that is quite the news to hear..." Nn mused to himself.
It was no wonder he had felt like dying when that bulky guy had simply ced his hands on his shoulder.
Every Celestial Heir that he met was at least thrice stronger than he was.
Any efforts to resist would be close to useless. It truly was pathetic.
[So you understand your pathetess now?] The system asked him, its mocking tone as clear as day.
"Well, not everyone is blessed with the Sacred Name of God''s ve that makes everyone else steal off my Divine Essence or use it to harm me inside my body.
How do you expect me to grow if I don''t have control over my own essence?" Nn argued back fiercely.
While he didn''t even know who the hell was talking to him right now, he couldn''t stand to watch someone mock his efforts.
[The God''s ve title is one of the best titles that a Celestial Heir could ever be given.
The only reason why you are so pathetic is because you failed to use your brain!] the system barked back, and Nn felt he had enough.
"Just who the hell are you!?"
[I, peasant, am the brain behind the mightiest power of the universe.]
[The guardian entity of an unsurpassable, limitless power, known as the God King System!]
It is and will forever be your greatest honor that you just happen to fulfill the requirement for bonding, and therefore I am now stuck with you, probably for eternity.]
"Well, maybe you should also include the rudest oldie that has ever existed!" Nn shot back at him.
[You! You bastard...] It was able to reply back to him but suddenly went quiet, and Nn thought perhaps the system had finally been able to sympathize with him.
[Hmph, arguing with a peasant like you will be giving you too much honor.]
You expect a mighty person like me to be modest to a peasant like you, even weaker than an ordinary mortal. You clearly do not have sense, just as I predicted.]
"Tch," he snorted, as he got another sharp-mouthed reply from the system again.
He was about to respond again, but soon quieted down as he read the system''s words in his head.
It imed that it was the brain behind the God King System.
While he had no idea of how powerful the God King System is, the name itself was inspiring, and the system didn''t seem like the one to lie.
This situation was like a god and a mortal meeting for the first time. It would be strange if the god was suddenly modest and talked to the mortal like they were equals.
The simple fact was they weren''t.
So therefore, Nn grimly sucked it up and didn''t give a reply. But instead, he moved on to the next tab on the panel.
[Descents]
[First Descent: Greek Pantheon]
[Pantheon Type: Kratos]
[Second Descent: King Pantheon]
[Pantheon Type: Trimurti]
[Third Descent: ?????]
[Pantheon Type: Unknown]
And that was everything that was stated about his Descent.
Unfortunately, Nn had no idea who Kratos was at all, but from the system''s earlier description, it dictated him as the god of war and strength.
[You really are an idiot, aren''t you? Your pantheon type doesn''t even use Divine Essence, and you''re focusing so much on divine essence, peasant!] the system grumbled out once more, not forgetting to mock him again, but Nn simply ignored it.
His heart had gone through so much to worry about the prickling words of a seemingly arrogant higher being.
Looking at the panel, he could guess that the first Descent, like the system mentioned, was the one where he had gotten the ability of the dagger from.
The second pantheon was most likely the one possessed by the system itself. But the third Pantheon?
"What is the third descent all about, and why is it not revealed?" Nn asked.
[Simple. Because you have yet to awaken it. Once you awaken it, if you ever would that is, then you will see it!] It responded quite harshly, but he shrugged it off once more.
Quickly, Nn moved to the next panel.
[Descent Ability]
1. Lost Dagger of Kratos
- Description: Ability to sever through anything possessing Divine Essence.
- Pantheon Type: Kratos

"What''s with the question marks?" he asked in confusion. He was expecting some more abilities that he was unaware of, but all he saw was the dagger.
[That''s the only ability that you have for now. What were you expecting?] the system asked, and Nn sighed before moving to the next tab.
[Shop]
[Locked!]
[Locked!]
[Locked!]
[Do you want me to exin that too?] the system asked, and Nn shook his head.
"Don''t worry. I understand now..."
[Now, move to the most important tab of all!] the system dered grandiosely as Nn moved to thest tab.
[Quests]
[Active Quests:
- Learn of the potential of the one who carries the God King System.
Status: Upleted.
- Re-awaken Your Pantheon Will
Status: Upleted.
- Undergo The First Dream Trial Of The God King and obtain your first Crown.
Status: Upleted.]
[Rewards of Quests will be figured out after havingpleted the quests, but each will lead the Host into bing a true God King!]
"Hmmmm, quests, huh? Isn''t this like those video games?" Nn asked with genuine surprise.
[Don''t you ever darepare the God King System with those time wasters of your mortal realm!] the system dered in anger, and Nn quite understood why.
"My bad. So let''s talk about the first quest. I''m to learn of the potential of the God King System, right? And I''m guessing you''re the only one who can help me do that?" Nn asked.
[Yes, I am the only one in the entire multiverse.] The system replied with pride.
"So help me then?" Nn replied, but the golden panel remained silent for the next two minutes.
"Um, are you there..."
[Yes, I am.]
"I thought you were going to help me do the exining, right?"
[Yes. But then I suddenly have this strange thought and that is, why should I?]
"Huh?"
