Destiny looked back with a smile on her face and blood dripping from her mouth. "See.... It was good I was he....."
The man snorted and tossed Destiny away. Blake, who was in a state of confusion, still reacted quickly and appeared behind his daughter and caught her. He looked at her eyes, which seemed to be void of life, and felt like the world was about to collapse.
He looked up at the devil, who had appeared with murderous eyes. "You dared to harm her.... You dared to harm one of my daughters!"
"Haha, why wouldn't I dare!? The ways of my kind is the strong make the rules. This means even your daughters are not saf...."
"In all my years as the ruling god, I have always tried to make the right decisions. I have always tried to make it so that the gods never overstepped their bounds. But it is not easy to control so many at once. But you... You have done what I could not. You have made the gods submit to you under a contract that even I can not oppose." Anu gave Blake a meaningful look.
"So.... I will do something that I never thought I would do." Anu touched his chest and pulled out what looked like a golden orb. But Blake could feel great power coming from it. "This is my source. It is the course of the first god appointed to this realm, and now I pass it on to you. It will be your job from now on to protect this world. With this source, you will also have better control over time."
Blake stared at the golden orb and was unable to react before Anu suddenly pushed it into him. A burst of godly power surged out of Blake, wrapping his entire body. His power surged forth as he looked up at Anu in shock.
Anu smiled. "I will use the last of my power to seal the gate. It will be the last thing I do as a god. As you are now my heir, I hope you can deal with the rest yourself. The life of a mortal is not easy. You know this best. I leave the mortals to you, and I hope you can lead them down a path that will bring them prosperity."
"This... Why?" The surge of power began to settle down. Blake now looked slightly younger than he originally did. His eyes glowed a golden color. He did not understand why Anu was giving everything up.
"Because you said it yourself. You would make a world where your daughter could live peacefully. I am doing the same. I will allow Ishtar to live in a world where she can live peacefully... but.... Please do not tell her. This is a secret I will take to my grave. You have given her happiness. You have given her a chance to be a mother for a second time. She may not have realized it, but I have already sensed the child brewing inside her. My granddaughter is also the same. So, I leave them both in your caring hands. They are my only family, and I am glad they both fell in love with a man like you." Anu patted Blake's shoulder before floating backward a few feet.
Blake looked at the old man in shock. Anu was Ishtar's father! Blake chuckled softly as he looked at Anu. "Then.... Father in law, I will be sure to protect both of them. They are my wives, after all."
