Was It a Bit Too Hasty?

[Later, Keisha descended.]

[I don't understand this part—what was Dukao thinking?]

[Who is Keisha? The King of Gods of the known universe!]

[And who are you, Dukao? You even dared to say, "What a grand entrance, Keisha"?]

[If that were Morgana, believe it or not, she'd have you minced on the spot!]

[And then you said, "I admit I've made unforgivable mistakes, and I apologize to the entire universe."]

[So what, you apologized and then kept going?]

[And that Ge Xiaolun too—]

[He actually pointed at Keisha and said, "Hey! You sitting on the sofa! What are you doing? Are you sick!"]

[Just for that remark, if Keisha didn't value Galaxy Power, a casual strike from her wouldn't even be considered harsh!]

Angel Leng snorted coldly:

"Hmph, she should have struck him! How dare he speak to the Queen like that."

Isolated Island Villa

Angel Yan looked at the diary's content, a dangerous curve forming on her lips:

"Dukao... you've got some nerve."

Azhui, however, was more focused on Ge Xiaolun's behavior:

"Sister Yan, this Ge Xiaolun... he's just too..."

"Too stupid," Yan finished for her. "But, there are benefits to being stupid."

"Benefits?"

"Easy to control," Yan said. "If Galaxy Power were someone deep and ambitious, that would be trouble. This way... it's simpler."

She paused and added:

"At least, we know how to 'teach' him."

"Teach him how?"

"First, teach him..." Yan sneered, "what 'politeness' is."

Azhui looked at Yan's expression, which clearly said, "I'm going to teach this brat a lesson," and couldn't help but mourn for Ge Xiaolun for three seconds.

Being targeted by Sister Yan... this kid's future probably won't be too easy.

Rui Mengmeng stared at the diary, her mouth forming an 'O' shape:

"Ge Xiaolun... dared to speak to the Angel King like that?"

While she didn't understand "King of Gods" or "known universe," the majesty conveyed in the description of "Keisha's descent" made her instinctively feel reverence.

And Ge Xiaolun actually dared to point at her and call her "sick"...

"That's... too much nerve, isn't it?" she murmured.

Qilin looked at the diary, her brow furrowed.

Dukao's provocation, Ge Xiaolun's rudeness...

To her, these actions were extremely unwise.

Especially Ge Xiaolun—as "Galaxy Power," the future "protagonist," he acted like an ill-mannered street punk at a crucial moment.

"Someone like that..." she whispered, "can he really shoulder the responsibility of protecting Earth?"

Merlo Heavenly Court - Hexi's Garden

Hexi couldn't help but laugh out loud at the diary entry, "What a grand entrance, Keisha":

"Yo, tomboy, quite the grand entrance~"

Keisha's expression was calm, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes:

"Heh heh, warmonger..."

"But..." Hexi mused, stroking her chin with interest, "he dared to speak to you like that, perhaps because... he knew you wouldn't kill him?"

"Perhaps," Keisha said faintly. "Or perhaps... he's just foolish."

"I lean towards the former," Hexi said. "Dukao isn't stupid. If he dares to provoke you, he must have a reason."

"For example, to establish an image of 'defiance against the powerful' in front of the Xiong Bing Lian."

Keisha raised an eyebrow: "Using me as a stepping stone?"

"Highly likely," Hexi nodded. "After all... in the eyes of those kids, you're an 'outsider,' a 'god high above.'

"And Dukao is their 'general.' By stepping forward to 'confront' you, he can quickly win their trust and admiration."

"However..." Hexi's eyes flickered slightly, "this Galaxy Power... doesn't seem to have much brains either."

Keisha's expression remained unchanged as she leaned back slowly, closing her eyes. Her voice was calm:

"It's not important anymore."

"Don't we still have the little guy?"

Hexi stared at Keisha, who seemed to be in a light slumber, with her azure eyes. After a long pause, the corners of her lips curved slightly:

"Oh? Has our tomboy finally come around?"

Keisha didn't open her eyes, still lying quietly. Her voice carried a hint of weary indifference:

"Come around? I suppose so."

"After all, whether the little guy turns out to be the 'future' or the 'apocalypse'..."

"Do we... have a choice?"

Hexi fell silent for a moment, then slowly lay down beside her. Her tone was tinged with a rare helplessness:

"Yeah... do we have a choice?"

Regardless of which possibility Su Bai represented, they didn't have many options right now.

After all... the abilities he had already displayed far surpassed their current understanding.

All they could do now was take a gamble—

And pray that the final outcome... wouldn't be too bad.

[Later, Yan would take Galaxy Power to Freya to stop Demon Ato's massacre, while Morgana would collude with Karl, using Sunlight to detonate Emerald Star, causing Keisha to go offline temporarily.]

Hexi opened her eyes, confirming she wasn't mistaken, before turning to look at Keisha beside her:

"You're just... 'offline' like this?"

Keisha's gaze drifted to the sky simulated by Angel technology, her tone calm:

"What? Am I not allowed to rest when I'm tired?"

Hexi chuckled lightly:

"No, I just... don't you think it's a bit hasty?"

"Oh? Hasty?" Keisha blinked, turning her gaze to Hexi, meeting her eyes. "Is it?"

Hexi retorted:

"Isn't it?"

"King of Gods, Holy Keisha, the strongest god in the known universe—you've been given so many titles."

"And you go offline after appearing for such a short time..."

"Isn't that hasty enough?"

Keisha was silent for a few seconds, then slowly spoke:

"If this were following the 'plot,' it would indeed be hasty."

"But if it's reality..."

"Isn't any melodramatic plot in reality quite realistic?"

"Heh, true."

Island Villa.

"What?! The Queen actually--!"

Angel Yan was struck by lightning, freezing in place, her face filled with disbelief.

How could this be...

That was Queen Keisha! Queen Keisha, who possessed a Fourth Generation God Body and a Sacred Body!

How could she possibly...

Yan panted urgently, her expression a mixture of shock and turmoil.

Azhui beside her wasn't faring any better, looking like a lost soul, her eyes vacant.

Freya.

Zhixin had just found a rock to sit on, her fair legs elegantly crossed, her eyes filled with curiosity as she looked at the diary in her hands.

The next second, she leaped up from the rock—

Queen Keisha... fallen!?

Merlo Heavenly Court.

Angel Leng was equally shocked.

"Damn it! This diary must be talking nonsense!"

"How dare it slander the Queen like this! How could the mere Morgana and Death God Karl be Queen's match!"

She immediately drew her Flame Sword, her wings spreading wide behind her:

"No! I'm going to go hack that Sunlight—and Morgana!"

Lingxi beside her hadn't recovered from the shock. Hearing Leng's words, she burst into tears and quickly reached out to grab her:

"Sister Leng! Don't be rash!"

"This hasn't happened yet! Without the Queen's orders, we can't act recklessly!"
