"Aurelia, you're still as sharp-tongued as ever!"

Kartora's face showed a hint of displeasure.

"For me, whatever path Lord Crossbridge chooses, I will always support it. After all, he is the one who saved me."

"That's why I don't want him to die, do you understand?"

"Of course. Your existence is the method I believe will bring about the best outcome."

Aurelia nodded, a strange smile flashing across her face.

"This kind of conversation is still as boring as always. Never mind, I think it's time for me to leave."

With that, Aurelia turned her gaze toward the direction of Backworld.

On the other side, Kartora smiled faintly and opened the cork of the "Time Brewed Wine" bottle, pouring some clear liquid into a wine glass.

"I cannot control your decisions. If you wish to leave, then by all means, go."

"However, don't forget about our prior deal."

Aurelia snorted and spoke with a hint of disdain.

"Kartora, it seems you've forgotten that I'm a god. So, once I make a deal, I will certainly keep my word."

After saying this, Aurelia's body transformed into a beam of light, disappearing from the spot.

...

Above the countless Time Rivers,

Knowledge Daniel's figure suddenly appeared before Inner God Daniel.

"Inner God Daniel, to make a distinction, I hope you don't mind me calling you that?"

At this moment, Inner God Daniel's Filth of God had somehow vanished, leaving only his fair, glowing skin.

"Get lost. I don't want to talk to you."

Inner God Daniel snorted coldly and vanished in the blink of an eye.

Clearly, he didn't want to be near Knowledge Daniel.

In the face of Inner God Daniel's rude attitude, Knowledge Daniel showed no sign of displeasure. He simply smiled faintly and continued,

"Oh, come on, there's no need to be so angry!"

"I'll ask you just one question: do you want to be completely killed by the strongest Daniel?"

Upon hearing these words, Inner God Daniel couldn't help but furrow his brows.

"You think he can kill me?"

Knowledge Daniel picked up the tone of anger from Inner God Daniel's words, but his expression remained calm.

"Inner God Daniel, I think you've forgotten something."

"In countless world-lines, it seems that only he has left his name on the Fate Stone."

"And you... you're just a failure. So, you should be well aware of whether what I'm saying is possible!"

"Or perhaps... let me be more direct, you won't die, will you?"

Inner God Daniel's expression darkened immediately. He glared fiercely at Knowledge Daniel before coldly saying,

"So, what are you still blabbering on about?"

"Get out of here now, or I'll kill you!"

In the face of Inner God Daniel's threat, Knowledge Daniel kept his calm, faint smile.

"Why should I leave?"

"I'm here to offer you another option. Of course, you could interpret it as a kind of well-meaning advice."

"You can choose not to believe me, but why don't you use Mental Deduction to see what will happen next?"

"To be honest, if I were the strongest Daniel, what I would do right now is collect God Rank Skill cores at all costs. Because we all know, that's the only path to reaching godhood."

"Compared to your current method, breaking into his world-line, it's clear that the strongest Daniel's method is far more sophisticated."

"You and I both know, if the strongest Daniel reaches godhood, the first one to die will be you. When that time comes, even if you kneel before me and beg for help, I won't be able to save you."

"In a way, you and I are already, by necessity, allies. Whether you acknowledge it or not."

Knowledge Daniel's words were clearly intended to provoke.

But that's always been his approach. He's not afraid if you don't bite; he's just afraid you won't listen to what he has to say.

As expected, Inner God Daniel fell silent after hearing these words and did not attempt to drive Knowledge Daniel away.

Based on Inner God Daniel's Mental Deduction,

He realized that what Knowledge Daniel said was indeed the truth.

At the moment, he was at a disadvantage. If he didn't make a change soon, things could spiral out of control!

With this thought, Inner God Daniel immediately stood up and said,

"I'm going to kill him right now!"

???

Upon hearing this, Knowledge Daniel was momentarily stunned.

Wait, is this guy's brain functioning properly?

It seemed that Inner God Daniel was even more impulsive than he had expected.

"Inner God Daniel, are you kidding me?"

"You have no idea what kind of strength the strongest Daniel has reached, and you're planning to go after him?"

"Please, can you use your brain for once? Right now, he's reached Demigod Rank, and he's on his way to the Third Pantheon, granted by another God of Knowledge. Oh, by the way, I should also remind you, he's devoured his own inner god."

"Not only that, he's gathered twelve god-level devotees, which means he now has twelve loyal followers and controls twelve different domains of divine power."

"I ask you, against such an opponent, what makes you think you can kill him in his world-line?"

"My ally, it seems that you're even more reckless than I imagined. I admit, you've merged with your own body, but you're still far from matching the strongest Daniel."

Although he knew all of this was the reality, Inner God Daniel's expression grew darker.

He shot a cold, angry glare at Knowledge Daniel and coldly said,

"So what exactly are you trying to say after all this?"

"Of course, I'm here to save you, my ally!"

Knowledge Daniel wore a concerned look on his face,

"Think about it now, we've reached a point where we need to have each other's backs. So I have no choice but to help you."

"If I'm not mistaken, your biggest problem right now is synthesizing the top five God Rank Skills. However... I think you can broaden your thinking a bit more."

"Like, for example, by seizing a God Rank Skill scroll!"
