Redenia's attitude was extremely sincere. As a dignified Main God, she had lowered herself to this extent, almost pleading with him.
Moreover, upon closer inspection, her makeup and appearance had clearly been carefully chosen.
She wore no especially lavish jewelry, and her raven-black hair was simply pinned up without adornment. Her dress was cool and thin, exposing her smooth shoulders and thighs. Her emerald eyes were moist and exceptionally captivating—taken together, even to an outsider, she looked like a young married woman worn down by hardship, her heart haggard and exhausted.
Not to mention that Redenia's beauty could practically be considered one of the extraordinary abilities she possessed as Leviathan Dahl's successor. As long as one was a living creature, there was no way to resist her beauty.
Yet Lioz remained calm.
"I do not object to forming an alliance with you."
Faced with the hand Redenia had extended, Lioz neither rejected nor accepted it. He gazed into her pitifully beautiful emerald eyes and slowly said:
"Even if you stole my source soil, impersonated Xia Er Guiniya, stabbed me, and had been using me from the beginning—I do not hold a grudge against you."
"Lord Lioz, you must understand. That is all in the past."
Redenia lightly brushed it aside. "Let the past turn the page. Let us cherish the present and carve out a future for the two of us together... Drive out every injustice and every higher being—are you really satisfied with being merely an agent?"
"Lioz. You are a Cannon Fodder God. The Star Abyss looks down on you, Morphedria does not think highly of you, and Gaia merely sees you as an opponent. No one understands you, nor are they willing to understand you—only I, who have stayed by your side the longest. I know you.
