Kannan reflected on the path so far. Each round was tilted toward one of the high holy potential families—Novan for knowledge, Cilvan for skills, Thivan for stamina, Vivan for profit, Petvan for wings. The lottery box is controlled, but they didn't expect someone like me to slip through. This last round is their shortcut, but also my chance.
Judges' Decision
After two hours of deliberation, the judges announced the eight finalists:
- 8th Place: Volini Thivan
- 7th Place: Clospin Novan
- 6th Place: Lenim Vivan
- 5th Place: Katchi Cilvan
- 4th Place: Tear Petvan
- 3rd Place: Ace Petvan
- 2nd Place: Kannan Zevan
- 1st Place: Olivia God
Kannan was stunned. Who surpassed me? He recalled the mysterious competitor who had endured the Olympthon twice and fought again in the holy shield round.
The crowd erupted in whispers. Kannan asked someone nearby, "Why are they shocked about this girl?"
The god replied, "Don't you know? She is the daughter of the God Father—his only blood relative. If you become a great god, you must mate early, otherwise wait for the next season. She is unique. And you—a fake god—standing as candidate for great god? This changes history."
Kannan's thoughts raced. So Olivia is the God Father's daughter… and I've been flirting with her. Dangerous. I must make Dransart the Devil God. Still, she is trustworthy enough to be a subordinate later.
The Stage of Eight
The God Father summoned the finalists. They stood on stage, the crowd roaring. The god Kannan had spoken to fainted in shock at seeing him among them.
The God Father declared, "There will be battles between these participants. Three rounds, one each day. Tomorrow, matches will begin according to the draw."
Kannan returned to the Zevan house, but guards assigned by the God Father escorted him. "You are in the last round. Bring your family to the luxurious inn for protection."
The Zevan siblings rejoiced at the lavish rooms—eight chambers for eight participants.
Morning Notice
At dawn, a notice arrived in Kannan's room:
- Volini vs Olivia
- Clospin vs Lenim
- Ace vs Katchi
- Tear vs Kannan
Kannan frowned. This is the plan of the high holy potential families. Wing arts are their strongest. They will try to kill me if I act clueless. But I have cheat luck—I've already seen this scene in my old life.
Olivia's Warning
Kannan met Olivia. She asked sharply, "How did you fly in the sky as a fake god?"
Kannan answered, "I was humiliated in that round. My anger awakened my power, sweetheart."
Olivia's eyes narrowed. "Follow me. But if you call me sweetheart again, I will kill you."
Kannan fell silent. She is not one to be fooled by me.
Thus, the final battles begin.
Kannan faces Tear Petvan, while Olivia confronts Volini. The stage is set for the decisive clash, where bloodlines, families, and fate collide. The God System itself trembles, awaiting the outcome.
