Chapter 402: Helping the Five Executives, Including Blank, Reach the God-King Realm!
....
With that goal in mind, Seito vanished from his Divine Kingdom in a flash.
Zip~
The moment he reappeared in the living room, every single person in the room looked over.
"How did it go?" Sora asked immediately.
"Very smoothly," Seito replied with a smile.
Hearing this, everyone broke into bright smiles. With this breakthrough, their operations in the God-King Star Sector were officially secure!
Seeing the result, Taihei Doma, Yaeko Nishimiya, and Yuzuru Nishimiya also smiled warmly. Although they didn't fully understand what was happening in the God domains, Seito becoming more powerful was obviously a fantastic thing. After all, their own family members were all registered deities within Seito's Divine Faction!
"Next, I plan to spend the next few days pulling up the core team's strength," Seito suddenly announced.
"Big Brother Seito~" Shiro stood up from the couch and walked over to his side. "Are you going to boost Brother's strength too?"
Sora's current strength wasn't bad, and he was already right on the verge of reaching the late stage of the regular Deity Realm. But compared to the upcoming challenges, he was still far too weak! He couldn't even match up with the core girls at the moment.
"Of course I am!" Seito replied. He then swept his gaze across the group. "Sora, Shiro, Amou, Haruno, Kanade—you guys follow me into the Divine Kingdom."
Seito had explicitly called out all the core executives of his personal guild. The reason was incredibly simple: he wanted to push every single one of these executives straight into the middle stage of the God-King Realm! Then, based on their individual combat traits and experience, he would decide who to push further into the late stage.
Right now, Seito had three main candidates in mind for the late stage: Shiro, Maple, and Kirukiru Amou. He was absolutely determined to raise these three to the late God-King tier!
As for the required divine blood? Seito had been collecting and saving a portion of it every single day. His current inventory was massive, so he wasn't worried about anyone failing the breakthrough.
The named executives traded looks, and then Shiro grabbed Sora's hand as the entire group followed Seito into the Divine Kingdom. Seito's silhouette vanished from the living room once more.
Seeing them leave, Kaguya Shinomiya's beautiful eyes flashed with curiosity. "Where do you think Seito will target for his very first major battle?"
Hearing Kaguya's question, the remaining girls fell into deep thought. As deities within Seito's faction, they also understood the general layout of the God-King Star Sector.
"He probably won't move against our Western Mythos Faction," Hestia suddenly chimed in.
She had long since figured out that Seito and his group didn't originally belong to the Central Region of the God-King Star Sector. However, she had kept that information to herself because she shared a fantastic relationship with Seito!
Even so, it blew her mind to learn that Seito had actually climbed all the way up from the regular Divine Domain to reach the absolute peak of the God-King Realm in such a short time. His talent was simply terrifying! Still, she didn't believe Seito would attack the Western Mythos Faction.
Her reasoning was twofold: first, the sheer foundation of the Western Mythos Faction was incredibly deep; second, even with his breakthrough, Seito's current faction size wasn't quite ready to fight a massive established mythos head-on.
"I feel like he will focus on unifying the Central Region first," Yukino Yukinoshita said after a brief thought. The Central Region was incredibly chaotic, which meant Seito could make the absolute most of his spatial abilities there!
"If Seito takes over, the God-King Star Sector will finally become completely peaceful," Hestia said, her eyes rolling playfully as she let out a silly laugh.
Her statement wasn't just blind wishful thinking. If Seito successfully brought the Central Region under his rule, the entire God-King Star Sector would finally welcome an era of total peace. After all, the remaining major factions already possessed Main God permissions, so there was no real reason for them to wage wars against each other. Everyone could just focus on training quietly until they eventually breached the ceiling into the Main God tier and left the God-King Star Sector behind.
Hearing her logic, the girls all nodded in agreement. They felt Hestia's deduction made a lot of sense.
However, if Kirukiru Amou or Seito were here to hear this conversation, they would definitely shake their heads. After all, those two were planning to completely clean out the entire God-King Star Sector! The chaotic Central Region was merely the starting point!
Back inside Seito's Divine Kingdom.
After receiving the pure divine blood from Seito, Kirukiru Amou and the others had already sat down to absorb the energy and begin their breakthroughs. Meanwhile, Seito turned to look at Sora, who was standing beside him.
"Sora, once I successfully conquer the Central Region, you should go ahead and hand over all your Game Star permissions back to Tet."
Seito's plan was very clear. Once he captured the Central Region, he would immediately face the four major outer factions that held Main God permissions. Those permissions were far too valuable to be wasted. He wanted Sora to return the temporary authority to Tet so that he could personally forge a brand-new, superior set of god-tier permissions for Sora later on.
"No problem," Sora agreed instantly. He caught Seito's meaning immediately, so he had zero reason to decline.
Seeing him agree, Seito didn't waste any more words. He began channeling his core energies, a bright white light surging across his body. The light gathered rapidly in his right hand, forming a glowing sphere of solid energy.
Before long, a solid block of one hundred million divine power points was fully materialized!
"Go ahead and run the breakthrough," Seito said, handing the energy sphere over to him.
Right now, a hundred million points didn't feel like a massive loss to his reserves, but it was exactly what Sora needed to march straight into the God-King Realm! Sora didn't act polite either; he immediately sat down and began absorbing the massive energy pool.
With the entire group of executives sitting in deep meditation, Seito stood by and waited quietly.
Half an hour later...
[Global Earth Announcement]
["Goddess of War - Kirukiru Amou" has successfully breached the ceiling into the God-King Realm!]

[Let all living beings cheer together for the birth of our new God-Kings!]
Hearing the sudden string of system announcements echoing through their minds, every single creature on Earth froze in absolute shock.
Holy crap! Five people breaching into the God-King tier all at once?!
"What the hell?! Is the New Year starting off this explosive?!"
"I thought training became incredibly slow after reaching the Deity Realm, but looking at this, it doesn't seem slow at all!"
"That familiar feeling is finally back!"
"Yeah, it's been a long time since I heard a massive system announcement from the Fatui members. I was almost getting uncomfortable without it."
"Hehe, Earth just grew incredibly strong again! Five brand-new God-Kings!"
Countless people across the planet were talking about it excitedly. A massive, collective breakthrough right in the middle of New Year's Eve—who could possibly keep their composure after that? It was completely mind-blowing!
