Damn, I Have to Marry the Strongest Antagonist at the Start? - Chapter 304

Chapter 304: Chapter301-Devour and Fusion
Owen’s growth was unbelievably fast! Even the gods gathered here, some of the most outstanding prodigies from ancient times, took decades to reach Owen’s level in the Sage-tier. Yet Owen had achieved it in just three years!

The difference was astounding. He was in a completely different league.

At this tier, experience and accumulation were crucial. Even with extraordinary comprehension, it still took a long time to acquire the necessary experience and grow steadily.

What shocked them even more was Owen’s combat prowess. When he was still at the Master-tier, he had already defeated numerous God-tier mages and even God King-level mages. He had once beaten a God Emperor-level mage!

And after breaking into the Sage-tier, he fought the Four Great Forbidden Zones, forcing them to self-seal and even surrender precious treasures, something unprecedented in history.

If it weren’t for the Lord of Stars personally verifying these feats, they wouldn’t have believed it.

Such achievements seemed impossible, like a dream. But for Owen, it was all real.

It was as if Owen wasn’t human—more like a monster!

No wonder figures like the Lord of Stars, the War Goddess, and the God of Light valued him so much. Even though his foundation was still far behind theirs, they clearly treated him as a peer and a friend.

With someone like Owen leading the alliance in the future, many of them felt a newfound sense of hope.

What would his combat power be like once Owen reached the level of the Lord of Stars or the God of Light? They wouldn’t be surprised if he could tear the heavens apart!

One by one, the ancient gods who had once looked at Owen with doubt now nodded in approval, acknowledging and praising him.

Seeing this, the Lord of Stars nodded and stepped forward to stand in front of Owen, his expression becoming serious.

“Once the campaign against the heavens begins, there will be no turning back. In the past, when we fought the heavens, we managed to injure them, weakening the power of the Millennial Cataclysm—but in the end, we still failed,” he said gravely.

“But that fight gave us hope. Owen, after we are gone, we want you and the Goddess of Beauty to lead the Rebellion Alliance.”

The other gods listened intently, their faces equally solemn, all eyes now fixed on Owen.

Taking a deep breath, Owen nodded. “Rest assured, revered elders. The heavens are cruel and unjust. This responsibility is one I will not shy away from.”

“But… when will the Goddess of Beauty return?” Owen asked. He knew that the Goddess of Beauty, the daughter of the God of Light, had been sealed away by her father during the destruction of the previous era, only to be released at the beginning of this new one.

She was a prodigy, once seen as the final hope and spark of the gods before Owen came onto the scene.

Hearing Owen’s question, the God of Light shook his head slightly but said firmly, “She has been interfered with and may be lost in the river of time, but she will return soon.”

As her father, the God of Light had absolute confidence in the abilities of the Goddess of Beauty.

Owen nodded. While he had gained some understanding of the Rebellion Alliance, the Goddess of Beauty was far more experienced in dealing with its affairs, and many things would still rely on her.

“With Owen and the Goddess of Beauty, the balance is tilting in our favor. This war will be ours to win!” The God of Light swept his gaze over the other gods, his eyes burning with resolve.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he exchanged a glance with the Lord of Stars before both turned to Owen.

“This battle against the heavens is fraught with uncertainty. The two of us will pass down our most powerful magic to you.”

The most powerful magic of two legendary gods!

Owen was stunned, and the others around him were equally shocked.

Though they had been fighting the heavens for so many years, neither the Lord of Stars nor the God of Light had ever passed down their magic. Not because they were stingy, but because their magic was extremely powerful and demanding, requiring immense talent and comprehension.

Most people wouldn’t be able to grasp it. Even if passed on, it would be a waste, and worse, it might be stolen by the heavens and used against them.

Thus, they had always been cautious about passing down their magic.

But now, they believed Owen was the right person.

In an instant, two glowing orbs of magical inheritance appeared and flew into Owen’s brow.

As Owen absorbed them mentally, countless complex magical symbols flooded his mind.

“Congratulations, host! You have obtained the God of Light Apollo’s ultimate magic—Infinite Light!”

“Congratulations, host! You have obtained the Lord of Stars’ ultimate magic—Eternal Seal!”

As Owen took in the knowledge of these two powerful spells, his system’s notifications rang out.

His heart swelled with excitement.

Both Infinite Light and Eternal Seal were extremely advanced and powerful magic, surpassing planetary-tier and reaching the universe-tier!

Just mastering one of them would be enough to become a ruler of the world, a force to be reckoned with.

But now, he had both!

“Do you want to activate the bloodline skill—Chaos Hole—to Devour and fuse the two techniques?”

Shortly after Owen finished absorbing the two complex and powerful spells, a prompt suddenly appeared on his system interface.

Without hesitation, Owen chose to Devour and fuse them.

Instantly, his body began to tremble slightly.

The two universe-tier spells were being devoured bit by bit by black light, torn apart, and then recombined in the black hole.

During this process of breaking down and reassembling, Owen gained a great deal of insight.

The boundless determination and selfless sacrifice of Infinite Light purified Owen’s spirit, making it as clear as crystal.

The Eternal Seal, a complex and ancient sealing technique, was as intricate as the stars in the sky, countless and ever-changing.

These spells allowed Owen to truly grasp the grandeur and power of universe-tier magic, which seemed to be the pinnacle of what was possible.

Soon, Infinite Light and Eternal Seal were fully absorbed by the Chaos Hole, and the progress of Owen’s Primordial Chaos Body bloodline advanced to 20%!

A 20% increase from just two universe-tier spells—it was no wonder they were so powerful!

As Owen marveled at the results, the system notifications kept coming.

“Congratulations, host! You have advanced to God-tier, Level 1!”

With the notification, a radiant glow enveloped Owen as he leveled up.

But this glow was different from ordinary level-up light—it was suffused with primordial chaotic energy that distorted the void and emitted a terrifying aura.

Though his Primordial Chaos Body had not yet fully awakened, with 20% of it active, he had already surpassed 99.99% of all other special physiques in existence!

Its uniqueness was beginning to show.

Moreover, the physical transformation that accompanied his sudden level increase filled Owen with joy.

Chaotic energy flowed through his muscles and tendons, strengthening his already formidable body, making him feel as though he was basking in the warmth of the sun on a winter’s day.

His spiritual awareness and magical affinity also reached unprecedented heights.

He could even hear the cheers of the surrounding elements, their instinctual reverence for him palpable.

In addition, reaching God-tier revealed the true magnitude of the gap between God-tier mages and those below. His body, spirit, and mana had all undergone a qualitative transformation, now imbued with a mysterious divine radiance.

He no longer looked like a mere person, but like a true god, radiating golden light.

Owen also noticed that after breaking through to God-tier, the experience required for further advancement had decreased significantly, but the requirement for comprehension had increased.

To continue growing, he would need to understand the mysteries of [Order].

This explained why many God-tier mages remained stuck at their level for their entire lives.

But for Owen, this was good news. He possessed mastery over the domain of [Order], the unique Primordial Chaos Body, and his own creation, the Chaos Hole.

This was a path unlike any other.

During their time together, Leslie had shared some of her insights and ideas with Owen. Now that Owen had truly broken through to God-tier, he could fully appreciate the uniqueness and profundity of Leslie’s thoughts.

After all, even though Leslie had inherited the Ice Emperor’s legacy, she hadn’t achieved effortless breakthroughs.

Upon reaching God-tier, she had stopped progressing.
