Chapter 2: Just Like That, I Became a God

"So Boss, what is our next mission?"

Su Nian asked respectfully, not even having had the time to absorb and integrate the Divinity in his hands.

After all, with Shiroyasha right beside him, absorbing the Divinity wasn't urgent; the Boss's mission was more important.

"Hmm..."

Shiroyasha looked at the former Arcadia, now the current No Name, which had become a ruin.

She then looked at the group of children hiding in the basement, shivering, and the person bravely standing in front of them.

Black Rabbit, who was attempting to protect those children with her own meager strength.

"How about you join the current No Name for now? Help take care of this group of children?"

Although Shiroyasha wanted to say the name Arcadia, according to the rules of Little Garden, Arcadia's flag had been snatched away during the Demon King's attack, and it had lost its name.

Even Shiroyasha could not speak the name Arcadia, and could only refer to it as No Name.

As for taking in Su Nian, it was merely a whim of hers to cherish talent; if she didn't take Su Nian in, he would likely have been snatched away by that person, Queen of Halloween.

Rather than becoming an asset for that woman, it was better to take him in as her own underling.

For the moment, she hadn't really thought much about where Su Nian would go.

After all, even her previous Retainer, the Shuishen White Snow Princess, had been left at the end of the world to fend for herself.

Let her raise others? Better not; it would be good enough if she didn't raise them to death.

"Yes, Boss!"

Su Nian was still very cautious, playing the role of someone who had just arrived in Little Garden and knew nothing about it.

He did not say Shiroyasha's name; otherwise, the suspicion on him would never be washed away.

As someone who had just arrived in Little Garden, how could he possibly know a big shot like Shiroyasha?

Although his acting was still quite clumsy, Shiroyasha wasn't the type of person to be calculating and scheming.

So he managed to muddle through, and even managed to get a Divinity based on his own ability.

In Little Garden, Divinity could be considered the highest-level Gift an ordinary person could obtain.

Once granted a Divinity, it could directly elevate him to the highest level of his race or equipment.

For example, with his current Planeswalker ability, he previously needed to accumulate power for a long time to travel across worlds.

But now he could freely cross worlds to travel, and he had even unlocked control over space, a power one level lower than world-crossing.

Although he was still very inexperienced at it.

As well as the ability to create Magic Cards; if he could only create a few Prop Cards before,

then now he could confidently say that he could freely create Prop Cards, Spell Cards, Land Cards, and Enchantment Cards.

As the highest-level Gift, Divinity didn't just grant power; it even granted control over that power and an enhancement of his thinking.

The knowledge of a Planeswalker, which he had previously found difficult to fully grasp, was now completely digested.

As for his current strength? It is no exaggeration to say that he could now destroy a city in one blow.

At this moment, in the ratings of Little Garden, he had taken a step up to the heavens, becoming a Five-digit Divine Spirit.

Although among the Five-digits, he was mostly at the bottom level.

It could only be said that recognizing this Boss was truly worth it; Shiroyasha's generosity was not ordinary.

"Alright, I have things to do, so I'm leaving first. If anyone asks about your identity later, just say you are a new Retainer summoned by me, Shiroyasha."

After watching Su Nian finish absorbing the Divinity, Shiroyasha also left in a hurry.

Now she had more things to deal with, especially clues regarding the Demon King who had just attacked Arcadia and caused its destruction.

To be able to destroy Arcadia overnight? How many people in all of Little Garden could achieve this level?

And most importantly, not a single clue was left behind in Arcadia's residence?

She had to go and question them one by one! To see if she could find any clues!

"Yes, Boss Shiroyasha!"

After Su Nian gave a salute, he also completely let out a sigh of relief and set his heart at ease.

From now on, he was someone with an identity and a powerful backer!

If Shiroyasha hadn't just left, and if he didn't know what kind of world Little Garden was, he would have almost laughed out loud!

Sure enough, the greater the risk, the greater the reward.

Then Su Nian slowly wandered around Arcadia, incidentally walking toward the only building in Arcadia that was still relatively intact.

Just looking at this land that had been attacked by an unknown Demon King, Su Nian felt more and more terrified the more he looked.

Even just the power remaining in this land was enough to kill him a hundred or eighty times.

One could imagine the intensity of this battle.

But even Arcadia, which was so powerful and had hundreds of Four-digit Cadres, was destroyed overnight.

Then what if it were him who suffered the disaster?

Could he withstand it? And even if he could, so what?

Think again of Shiroyasha, the once-unrivaled Two-digit strongest Demon King, Humanity's Final Trial Geocentrism, and the Star Spirit of the Original Star.

There were no more rivals in Little Garden.

And now? Isn't she still an existence like a mascot?

Just muddling through as a Full Authority Layer Master in the lower levels.

With these cautionary tales, Su Nian put away his arrogance as a transmigrator, as well as the mindset he had just had of being able to do anything after his sudden rise.

After all, although he could dominate a region in the lower levels now, in the end, he was just the type that Shiroyasha could create in large batches at will.

Placed in the upper levels, he would likely be worse than cannon fodder.

Five-digit? To put it bluntly, he was just one of the Ten Thousand Heavenly Soldiers who besieged Sun Wukong back then, and even now, he might not be a match for that soldier.

What is there to be proud of?

After adjusting his mindset, Su Nian headed toward the last remaining intact building in the Arcadia base.

Perhaps this was the final kindness the attacking Demon King showed to Arcadia?

Even though they had the strength to kill everyone and completely destroy Arcadia, they ultimately left these children behind.

Furthermore, most of the Cadres of Arcadia were either exiled to the outside world or captured as Slaves.

The casualties were unexpectedly low.

One can only say that the relationships in Little Garden are too intricate and complex, so complex that even for someone like himself who knows the plot.

It is very difficult to sort through all the twists and turns, but if I can't figure it out, I won't think about it.

"Is anyone there? Is there someone inside?"

Su Nian gently knocked on the door of the basement entrance where Black Rabbit and the remaining children of Arcadia were hiding.
