"Lilith and Kronos have joined it, but ended up getting banished for screwing up too much." He added while pointing at Lord Hades, "But this stubborn guy is different. He outright told them to f*ck off with their grand goal."

"Aaaaaa, telling you about it doesn't hit as hard as seeing it for yourself."

Before Lord Hades could intervene, Apollo manifested a spiritual mirror, showing scenes happening on the very first days of the universe.

***

Near the universe's heart, the three rulers and every single unigins were seen gathered akin to primal forces meeting for the first time.

There was only a pure void beside the universe's heart and the massive dome of white mist released around it.

By now, the universe had already expanded and trillions of galaxies were born, following the laws of the universe.

However, 99.999% of them were empty. The few ones with a sense of life had nothing but mere unintelligent lifeforms.

Right at this moment in time, the only intelligent beings were the ones in this meeting; a meeting that was going to shape the universe's future.

"May I ask why we have been summoned on such short notice?" Hephaestus asked politely, his voice was as pleasant as a mermaid.

This shocked the tenants, making them stare at his youthful appearence with slightly widened pupils...He seemed 180 degrees different than the Hephaestus Felix had to fight.

'Only when you see both versions does it impact you," Lady Sphinx furrowed her eyebrows, "The inescapable pollution of the laws on their personalities."

Everyone nodded as they scanned their eyes across the board, noticing that almost all unigins were different than the ones they were accustomed to.

Meanwhile, the three rulers were still the same as ever, covered in a blinding brilliance.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are at a pivotal moment in our history," The first ruler spoke with a powerful voice, "The unification of the Unigins and Celestials can bring an era of peace and prosperity that our realms have never known."

"Why? Are you tired of us stealing your precious celestial energy?" Apollo chuckled as he played with a Lyre made out of light.

Most of the unigins chortled as they gazed at the three rulers with a ridiculing look. The universe's heart and its celestial energy never belonged to the three rulers...Thus, whenever the unigins desire some celestial energy, they come straight here to collect it.

Of course, since the three rulers weren't to be messed with, the unigins always paid them a visit in big groups.

This had caused quite a few battles to break between both parties, resulting in injuries almost always on the unigins' side.

Still, the three rulers never liked such battles at all since they consumed a great quantity of celestial energy each time.

While they wouldn't have minded before, today was different...The prophecy tablet has descended today and changed their perspective about everything.

"We brought you here for a simple reason." Amun-Ra uttered calmly, "We desire to establish a celestial kingdom around the universe's heart...We want you to be part of it."

"A celestial kingdom?" Athena frowned, "Why? What's the purpose? I believe everyone is satisfied with the status quo."

"Satisfied? Are you sure?" Medusa inquired, "Besides some of you with actual realms that you can call home, the rest are roaming in the darkness akin to rogue planets, with no star to orbit on."

"Hey, did you call us here to insult us?" Poseidon scoffed, "I am enjoying my oceanic domain thank you very much."

"Heh, imagine calling a planet of water as a domain." Hephaestus covered his laughter.

"Prick." Poseidon merely gave him the middle finger with an irritated look.

'It's good to see that some relationships never change with time.' The tenants chuckled at those two neverending rivalry.

"Listen up, there is no point in starting this with lies."

The first ruler waved his hand and exposed the massive brilliant prophecy tablet high above their heads.

Everyone stared at the tablet with raised eyebrows in confusion and intrigue.

"What's this?" Artemis asked softly.

"Our way out of this cursed prison," Amun-Ra pronounced with a cold edge.

"Interesting."

Eris moved up, appearing right next to the tablet. Then, she pointed at the picture of the dark circle at the very top of the tablet.

"Is this the way out?"

"That's what we believe." Medusa turned to the universe's heart and explained, "We believe that the dark circle is the universe's heart opened up."

"How so?" "Its name is written right underneath it."

The tenants observed some writings under the dark circle indeed. Unfortunately, they couldn't read it, leaving them to take the three rulers' word for it.

"This is a prophecy tablet and currently, it shows us only the end goal and the first instruction to reach it." Medusa explained, "Its first instruction is for us to unite and establish a kingdom together."

"I can't believe the three holy celestials are attempting to follow instructions from a rock." Zeus sneered, "You must be really desperate to leave this prison."

While it might seem like they were surrounded by an infinite void, in reality, they were inside a massive dimension separated from the matter universe. Unigins were the only ones allowed to enter and leave freely, unlike the three rulers.

"We don't care where the solution is coming from. As long as it has merits, we will do it." The first ruler said calmly, "Now, are you interested in being part of this? If you join the kingdom, we will be spreading the celestial energy based on a decided hierarchy between us and we will help you turn it into divinities."

"Even if you have no interest in the other side, this should be enough incentive," Amun-Ra added.

'How can this be enough?' Candace tilted her head in confusion.

She thought the entities would need much more to convince them to unite and create a kingdom.

Unbeknownst to her, most entities were already showing signs of being in favor of joining the kingdom.

"Sounds like fun, I will have a territory with a continuous stream of celestial energy. It might be enough to create some intelligent lifeforms." Apollo rubbed his chin thoughtfully, "It will definitely get rid of my current boredom."

"A common area for unigins, I always wanted this," Artemis murmured with a delicate smile, "We can get together and drink tea."

"Divinities, now you have spoken." Hephausuts' eyes burned with vigor, "I can't forget the taste of pure strength shooting through my veins."

"Likewise," Zeus added, his arms crossed together.

The majority of the unigins gave their input on the matter. Some were interested in the other side, some desired to create a community, and some sought strength.

For the bored and lonely unigins, this change of scenery was quite favorable.

"To make matters more fun, you are allowed to conquer the other unigin's territory and steal their celestial energy," Medusa interjected with a smile.

"Ohoho, now it's getting interesting."

Poseidon's smile grew wider as he stared at Hephaestus, already deciding on targeting his ass.

"Couldn't agree more." Hephaestus smiled coldly.

"Before we start with the creation of the kingdom, we have to establish a hierarchy between us first." The first ruler uttered calmly, "Without hierarchy and some rules, the kingdom will fall on its first week."

"How do you suggest we decide on such a complicated subject?" Demeter inquired sternly.

"A simple one vs one battle amongst us will decide it." The first ruler inquired calmly, "What do you say?"
