Looking at the man in front of her who couldn't grasp the main point, God of the Bible felt a bit helpless.
"Stop playing around, be a bit serious. What exactly do you want before you're willing to help?"
"Hmm... How about you sell yourself to me?"
"What do you mean?"
"Literally, of course."
Tatsuma raised his hand and pointed at the God of the Bible's soul.
"Compared to things like blessings, I'm more interested in you yourself."
"I'll take on the commission and help hide your true identity. In exchange, join my Peerage."
"Huh? That's clearly not okay, is it?"
God of the Bible shook her head. "No matter what, I'm the master of Heaven. Joining a Devil's Peerage is simply too outrageous."
Tatsuma said, "Then I'll seal you up so you can't even self-destruct, and then take your information and sell it to Michael for money."
God of the Bible said, "But then again, I was a bit bored staying in the seal. Joining your Peerage isn't entirely unacceptable."
People are compromising.
If Tatsuma had asked God of the Bible to join his Peerage from the start, she naturally wouldn't have agreed. But if he said he would sell her information to Michael and others, then it wasn't impossible to consider.
"It's a deal, okay? You absolutely cannot let the children know that I'm still alive."
"No matter what method you use, you must give me a legitimate identity to use after we get out."
"Don't worry, there won't be any problems."
Tatsuma carved two magic circles on the ground.
"It's ready, go in."
"This is... Equivalent Exchange in alchemy?"
God of the Bible walked into the left magic circle, her gaze sweeping around as she recognized the effect of this double magic circle.
"You want to reshape my body?"
"Yes."
"Then you'd better not waste too much effort. No matter how damaged my soul is, an ordinary body cannot bear it."
"Of course I know that."
With a ripping sound, Tatsuma tore off his left arm and threw it into the other magic circle.
[Indestructible] activated, and Tatsuma's body returned to normal in the next second.
"Hmm, yours is a bit impressive."
God of the Bible, startled, blinked, her gaze towards Tatsuma full of curiosity.
This regeneration is too abnormal. Not only is the speed astonishingly fast, but it can even guarantee quality, leaving no flaws whatsoever.
Even Trihexa, whom she had personally sealed, is inferior to Tatsuma in terms of recovery ability.
"Tatsuma, I promise not to spread it, quietly give me the lowdown. Are you an otherworldly God invading this world while wearing human skin?"
"You're thinking too much. I'm just an ordinary person."
Ignoring God of the Bible's reaction, Tatsuma dismantled some more parts and threw them into the alchemy magic circle.
After confirming there was enough flesh and blood, he injected demonic power to activate the Equivalent Exchange magic circle.
A massive demonic power fluctuation rose. Tatsuma's flesh and blood slowly melted, turning into a red light that flowed into the other magic circle, enveloping God of the Bible.
After a moment, a blonde girl, one meter forty centimeters tall and wearing a white dress, appeared before Tatsuma.
"How do you feel?"
"Hmm... It's pretty good."
God of the Bible reached out and clenched her hands a couple of times. "Although it's not as strong as my previous body, it's okay for carrying a remnant soul."
Tatsuma nodded slightly. "As long as it works. Next, spend some time repairing your soul, and you can train and become stronger again."
God of the Bible asked, "You can also repair souls?"
Tatsuma said, "A Shinigami in a bad state moved into my house a few days ago. I gained some experience."
"So that's how it is."
"Alright, next, give yourself a name. After all, I can't keep calling you God of the Bible."
"Hmm... then call me Yahweh."
"Yahweh? Isn't that too direct?"
"It's fine. I'll try to minimize my appearances. Even if someone hears this name, they won't associate it with God of the Bible."
Tatsuma thought for a moment. It seemed that was indeed the case.
After deciding on God of the Bible's new name, Tatsuma took out the mutated Queen piece.
"Are you ready?"
"No."
"It's okay, I'm already in."
Tatsuma activated the Queen piece and integrated it into Yahweh's body before she could react.
A massive demonic power fluctuation rose, and a dazzling light erupted from Yahweh's body. After a moment, this radiance disappeared, and a pair of black wings unfolded from behind her.
"Good luck, the transformation was successful." Tatsuma's expression relaxed slightly.
Although it was a mutated version of the Queen piece, Yahweh was not an ordinary person.
He actually wasn't sure if this thing could successfully transform her. But now it seemed his luck was pretty good.
Flesh and blood carrying Devil bloodline, and a soul so weak it was only at the level of an ordinary deity. Under the influence of various factors, the mutated Queen piece successfully played its role and didn't fail.
"Truly, life is full of changes. I never thought I would one day become a Devil."
After Yahweh spread her wings and played with them, she summoned a ball of sacred light to envelop the wings. After a moment, the dark Devil wings turned into a pair of pure white feathered wings, emitting a sacred radiance.
"This looks much better. Tatsuma, see if there's anything else that needs to be modified."
Tatsuma said, "Add a golden halo above your head, and you can impersonate an Angel and go to Heaven."
"Cough! That seems a bit conspicuous."
Yawi scratched her head and then sent out another ball of sacred light to change the wing style back.
"Forget it, I'll just make do with this for now."
"This doesn't look like ordinary magic. How did you do it?" Tatsuma asked with some curiosity.
Through Six Eyes' observation, he could confirm that Yahweh hadn't simply changed the color of her wings just now. After being covered by sacred light and light power, the other party's wings underwent a fundamental change, becoming a different structure.
Although Tatsuma could do similar things, he relied on Magic and Senjutsu, and couldn't do it as easily as Yahweh.
"I used Divine Arts."
Yawi summoned a ball of sacred light and said, "Although it looks very similar to the children's light, to me, it's like divine power. It's not just simple energy."
"As long as there's enough light, I can perform different Divine Arts, such as creating life, summoning destruction, and causing miracles."
Tatsuma took the sacred light and examined it. "It looks no different from ordinary light power, just a bit higher quality."
Yahweh said, "It's normal that you can't see it. Some things can only be perceived when you meet the conditions."
Tatsuma thought for a moment and looked towards Yahweh's chest. "Can you feel Oppai power?"
Yahweh tilted her head. "What strange things are you saying? How could there be that kind of energy?"
Tatsuma withdrew his gaze and said, "It seems you weren't lying. Some things really can only be felt when the conditions are met."
Yahweh: "..."
Is he trying to show off?
Because he couldn't feel the divine power in the sacred light, he made up a nonsensical 'Oppai power'.
Silently staring at Tatsuma for two seconds, Yahweh, with high emotional intelligence, chose to skip this topic.
"Cough! Let's talk about serious matters first."
"According to the agreement, I've joined your Peerage. You need to help me do one thing."
Tatsuma asked, "Tell me about it. What do you need to do?"
Yahweh asked, "Have you heard of the Soul King?"
Tatsuma nodded. "Of course I've heard of him."
"It's easy if you've heard of him. Actually, when the Soul King brought the three worlds he created to this world, I met him once."
"At that time, the Soul King saw the future, predicted my death, and gave me a suggestion."
"It was precisely because of that suggestion that my soul was preserved and survived until now."
Tatsuma rubbed his chin. "You mean... the Soul King could even predict your death at your peak?"
Yahweh nodded. "It's unbelievable, right? Actually, I was also startled at that time."
"But unlike gods like me, who are embodiments of world rules, the Soul King is a true god in every sense, an existence born carrying the will of the world."
"The Soul King has no emotions or desires, and no interest in world domination. The only thing he cares about is whether the world can develop better."
"A large part of the reason he suggested I live is because my existence can provide positive assistance to this world."
Tatsuma tilted his head. "The positive assistance you mentioned... does that mean staying home and not going out?"
Yahweh coughed. "Don't worry about such small details. If there's a world-level crisis, I'll still take action."
Weakness is weakness, but it depends on who you're comparing to.
With her current strength, beating enemies below Dragon God Level is still no problem. Even if a Dragon God Level enemy appears, she can sacrifice her soul for sealing.
