The latter did not resist, allowing Arishem the Judge to probe her consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arishem the Judge discovered Ajak's little secret, wavering between humanity and the Celestials. However, he was not angry because of this, but instead froze the image on Aaron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A new Celestial...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arishem the Judge finally understood why Ajak was so certain. Even he couldn't see through Aaron's disguise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron was a Celestial existing outside the Celestial organization. At the same time, he was the lord of the nine realms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nine Realms...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arishem the Judge pondered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silently, a dark black hole appeared beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time Ajak came to her senses, Arishem the Judge had already left the World Forge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face was pale, and her consciousness immediately retreated to Earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Calling on the other Eternals, they rushed straight to Aaron's villa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ajak, what happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sersi and the others were quite puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The sleeping Celestial is dead.

Why would he betray the Celestials?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that things had come to this, Ajak could only reveal the Emergence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they learned that their purpose in coming to Earth was not to protect Earth and guide humanity's growth, but to provide sustenance for the birth of a Celestial, all the Eternals had quite the expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For seven thousand years, they had enjoyed the reverence of Earthlings, being called guardian deities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had indeed taken on the role of guardian deities and rightfully enjoyed all of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, everything they had done was actually to 'farm' humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dealing with the Deviants was merely to ensure the 'herd' grew healthier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, they weren't guardian deities, but a group of executioners, invaders?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Druig curled his lips into a sneer and said coldly, \"No wonder when I questioned our true purpose a long time ago, you chose to evade. So you didn't dare to say it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Guardian deities? Hahahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is simply the biggest joke in the world.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ajak remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After digesting the truth, Ikaris asked doubtfully, \"Aaron is a Celestial, so why did he choose humanity and betray the Celestials?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could it be... that in these few months on Earth, he truly fell in love with Earth?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sprite murmured, \"Perhaps that's true love.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others looked down at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sprite's eyes were slightly red. \"Everyone knows Aaron has his own company on Earth, and the women he loves.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He must have chosen to betray the Celestials and stand with Earth and his loved ones for the sake of his women.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So Aaron, a Celestial also knows love, and is so devoted. He is truly magnificent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either something is wrong with us, or something is wrong with you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other Eternals wore very strange expressions. They really wanted to open Sprite's head to see if there was something wrong with her brain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We are all Eternals, so why do you only think of romance?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Phastos said faintly, \"But it is said that Aaron has many women.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sprite raised her head. \"What's wrong with having many girlfriends? He is a Celestial, not a human. And he must truly love all those women.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to her height, Sprite had always wanted to pursue love like a normal woman. Initially, she thought Ikaris was the strongest and most handsome. But now it seems that Aaron is the real treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For love, he actually dared to betray the Prime Celestial and murder his own kind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How admirable is this courage and love?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ajak's lips twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought about it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Sprite said really sounded plausible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could Aaron truly be a benevolent Celestial who, out of love for the women of Earth, switched sides?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone's expressions changed constantly while Sprite's eyes were filled with adoration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that moment, Aaron became her idol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To go to such lengths for true love!\u003C\u002Fp>",1368,"2026-06-05T16:52:19.139Z",1,"novelbin.me","206ea186b69ad8cee88b1970bc13c3a309d34ef653f1283668113d42a9c2388f","marvel-the-devourer-chapter-266","marvel-the-devourer-chapter-264",363,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmarvel-the-devourer-cover.jpg"]
