My Substitute CEO Bride

That day... finally ended...

Nevertheless... it was not truly over.

...

Deep underground, Zirconia had fully absorbed the fruit, gaining power that rivaled the mightiest of gods. Now, she sought revenge!

With a burst of golden light, Zirconia shot up from the depths, straight into the sky.

In the heavenly realm, darkness reigned. Zirconia searched furiously.noveldrama

"Where are you all hiding? Come out and face me!"

Her voice echoed through the vast, empty heavens. It was seemingly the only sound in that desolate expanse. Just then, an old priest appeared.

"It's been a long time... Nia," he said.

"Old fool! Die!" Zirconia roared, throwing a punch at him. However, her attack was immediately

suppressed by Sycamore's overwhelming power. As the guardian of the strongest Divine Territory, Sycamore's reputation was well-earned.

Yet, despite this, Zirconia was not intimidated by his strength. She knew clearly that she had the potential to defeat him. She could do it!

She launched another punch, her divine power destroying half of the celestial structures.

"As I thought, you two are very similar," Sycamore remarked calmly.

Zirconia gritted her teeth in fury. "Are you mocking me?"

Sycamore replied, "No, on the contrary, I respect you. But those who ruled over humanity are long dead. What will you do now?"

"Obviously, I'll kill all of you!"

"And after that?"

"After that, I'll become the one and only god of the new world!"

"Is that so? Such a beautiful fantasy... The last time I heard this kind of naive fantasy was from Ruin himself..."

"What?" Zirconia's attacks became even more ferocious.

"Don't call him that! He has a name!"

"But the world only remembers him as Ruin."

"So what?!" Her fury intensified. "As long as I remember his true name, that's all that matters."

Sycamore snorted coldly. "You're exactly the same. Your words now are identical to what he said back then."

...

In Sycamore's memories, Ruin bowed his head.

Sycamore stroked his beard, pretending to be troubled as he spoke, You say you want to avenge Nia... and bring her back to life? Don't you think that's just a fairy tale?" en

Ruin looked up, his face resolute as he gazed at Sycamore.

"So what?"

Seeing that Ruin was unyielding, Sycamore showed him several possible futures.

"The best-case scenario is that she successfully reincarnates, but she'll completely forget everything. But most likely, she'll destroy the entire world... Even so, you're determined to bring her back?"

Ruin nodded.

Sycamore could not understand. "Why? It's all so meaningless."

Ruin stood up. "I want to know, what do you think about Nia being cast out of the god realm?"

"She brought it upon herself. Wasn't it because she broke the rules?"

"Rules..."

"That's right, rules! There are rules in the mortal world, and naturally, there are rules in the god realm too."

Ruin sighed. He understood

Sycamore's perspective and also sensed Sycamore's dissatisfaction with the current rulers of the god realm. That was why he dared to make his request.

Sycamore had long been discontent with the rulers, but due to the rules, he had not acted too aggressively.

Ruin then said, "When I brought the jewel to the mortal world, I stopped caring about those so-called rules!"
