This time, it was Suōshā's turn to lead everyone to the Heart Realm Universe. "We've arrived~" Suōshā announced, ending the teleportation. This was yet another universe they had never visited before, and it was uncertain whether the God Master here would be as straightforward as the God Master of A'mo. "Though the Heart Realm Universe ranks among the top ten, it rarely involves itself in conflicts between God Masters. This trip may not yield results," Suōshā cautioned upfront. "I understand. We'll do our best without forcing it," I replied. "Then let's go," Suōshā said, taking our hands and teleporting once more toward the God Master of the Heart Realm Universe.We landed at a new divine temple. This time, we didn't fly straight into the main hall as we had before—such rudeness was enough once. The temple's gate exuded grandeur and sanctity, flanked by two divine guards. "Who approaches? State your name!" one of the guards stepped forward to inquire. "I am Suōshā, the Original God Master of the Boundless Universe. Please guide us to the hall," Suōshā declared with solemn dignity. "Pardon the disrespect… Please, follow me!" The guard, intimidated by Suōshā's presence, hurriedly led the way. Having a God Master wife sure is convenient, I mused.Guided by the guard, we entered the temple. The hall's grandeur rivaled that of the Ma Star Universe, with intricately arranged stone carvings and exquisite ceiling patterns. Light streamed in from outside, casting a majestic glow. "Is that God Master Suōshā?!" the attending divine officials whispered among themselves upon seeing her. "What wind has blown you here?" the God Master on the dais addressed Suōshā. "It's been a while. Today, I accompany my husband to seek your aid," Suōshā replied calmly."Husband? Even a god of your caliber indulges in mortal affections?" the God Master asked, intrigued. "Pardon my manners, I haven't yet greeted you, God Master. My name is White, and we come from the Great Ao Universe. The God Sound Universe is amassing forces for a nefarious plot, so we've come to request aid from the Heart Realm Universe. May I know your esteemed name?" I asked cautiously. "I am Silver Ga, God Master of the Heart Realm Universe. I can guess the purpose of your visit—you wish to enlist us in your alliance, don't you?" Silver Ga responded calmly, as if seeing through our intentions. "Exactly so. I hope you'll lend your strength to preserve universal peace. I offer my gratitude in advance," I said, bowing earnestly."Since ancient times, the Heart Realm Universe has maintained neutrality, avoiding all conflicts. That is our principle," one of the divine officials interjected. "No, I've changed my mind. The Heart Realm Universe will join your alliance as you wish," Silver Ga declared, catching everyone off guard. "What did you say, God Master?! Are you serious?" The officials were stunned by his words. "Oh? Agreeing so easily—there must be a condition, right?" Suōshā pressed. "Haha, the world has changed. Even you've married, so why should I cling to old rules?" Silver Ga laughed."Is this true? Thank you so much, God Master!" I hurriedly expressed my gratitude. "Hold on. As God Master Suōshā suggested, I do have one condition. Let's see if you can accept it," Silver Ga said with a smile. "Please, state your condition, God Master. If it's within my power, I'll do my utmost to fulfill it," I replied. A mysterious smile crossed Silver Ga's face. "It's no difficult task. You simply owe me a favor, to be called upon later," he said, revealing nothing further. "Very well, whatever it may be, I'll do my best to fulfill it in the future!" After thanking the God Master, we left the Heart Realm Universe to embark on a new journey. "Husband, what's he playing at? It doesn't feel like a simple matter," Enis asked. "To sway someone as immovable as him, it's unlikely to be trivial. But for now, gaining an ally is enough," Suōshā said with a wry smile. "Yeah, we'll deal with this favor after the universe's crisis is resolved," I said, holding their hands as we headed toward the Luxi Universe.
