"I won't get on the ship immediately. I still need to withdraw from the Banquet of the Gods and handle a few things."
"Aren't you going to ask if I'll agree?"
Farina looked surprised: "What? Won't you agree?"
"Originally, I was looking for reliable and steady teammates, so there's no reason to refuse. I'm just telling you, in our group, you'll be no different from a freelancer in the short term."
"That's fine. After all, I mentioned that often, I might be busy with things for the Deputy."
"Alright." Li Ang said.
By this time, lunch was almost over.
The dishes and bowls in front of ALulu were indeed piled like a mountain, thanks to the waiters continuously clearing the empty plates.
"So, so delicious. I've never had such a tasty meal."
Xiaoniu smiled at Elaphia and said, "Thank you, little leader."
"Thank you." Zoe also chimed in.
Though not as much as the pink-haired young girl, the kitten also enjoyed a feast of delicacies.
ALulu's sudden familiarity with the address left Elaphia a bit uncomfortable.
"Oh, I didn't mean what my brother treated me to wasn't good, just..." Xiaoniu suddenly thought of something and quickly explained.
"It's okay, as long as you're happy." Li Ang said.
Since Li Ang told them to eat freely, ALulu didn't rely on the Ring of Bread.
Elaphia remained expressionless, but Li Ang knew her lack of expression signified her shock.
The cost wasn't much for her, but the problem lay in replenishing the precious ingredients.
The head chef, sweating profusely, came over to whisper several times during the conversation, causing Elaphia to glance at Li Ang worriedly, as if fearing he'd form an opinion based on the chef's behavior.
Li Ang understood why the head chef was anxious; if they continued to sail, these ingredients wouldn't last until they reached the Holy City a week later.
Tea after the meal was also being prepared, and Li Ang took this opportunity to discuss Bahamut with Farina.
"How much do you know about the Creator God?"
Farina said helplessly: "Honestly, I only heard that name while talking with the Dragon Gods. I didn't dare ask at the time, but Lord Fire Dragon noticed my curiosity and offered the information.
"It was then I learned that the Six Dragons and the Dragon Ancestor are fragments of the Creator God's power. Since divine spirits embody both creation and destruction, these Dragon Gods are dual polar opposites as well.
"Beyond that, I don't know."
Li Ang said, "Don't you think there's something off about the Bahamut summoned by Zoe and the mysterious young girl? Although powerful, you and I have seen exaggerated Transcendent Demon Beasts similar to that giant dragon. This power is far from being able to create a world, right?"
"That's also what puzzled me deeply and left me unable to understand."
Farina said: "Due to my perception of the Power of Dragon, I can confirm that the Bahamut who destroyed demons indeed has the highest purity of Dragon's power I've ever seen. It can be said it's entirely composed of Dragon Factor.
"I recognize it as a god, but its level of power isn't that high."
Li Ang nodded. His perception of dragons wasn't as strong as Farina's. From the perspective of spirituality, that giant dragon's spirit was so perfectly radiant it was blinding, though it possessed some problematic spiritual structures that he currently couldn't analyze.
The witch suddenly recalled: "My drop of Dragon Factor was absorbed too."
It was because of her collected Dragon Factor that Bahamut broke free from the gold and iron restraints engraved with runes.
"Why is a dragon with the name of the Creator God in a state of being locked?" Li Ang asked.
"I don't know." Farina shook her head.
Li Ang remembered a mock internet question and answer from his past life.
This wasn't her fault either; there were an unusual number of issues to summarize and contemplate these days.
Speaking of which, Zoe handed Li Ang a piece of pale gold fragment tinged with scarlet, inscribed with runes.
