Go! I'll Take You to Beat Up the Grand Priest

"Okay! But I'm not really interested in what you're saying. To me, you're just an ancient being. What matters to me is whether you have the ability to send me back to my original timeline. If you can, we can work together. If not, there's nothing more to discuss."

Goten didn't dwell on the Grand Priestess any longer. He got straight to the point. Though she was undeniably beautiful, he had no interest in an entity that had lived for billions of years.

"Timeline travel? That's a simple matter for me," the Grand Priestess said seriously. "But before that, I need you to take all of us Angels out of here and help me teach that bastard Grand Priest a lesson."

She had never been able to break through the seals placed by Zeno and the Grand Priest. Over billions of years, she had tried countless times, all to no avail. Fortunately, Twist and the others had managed to return to the real world through their own means. But she, herself, remained trapped.

Twist had originally been the Angel of the 18th Universe. Exiled Angels were sent to this place when they lost their value. Perhaps the Grand Priest and Zeno considered them insignificant, so they hadn't fully restricted their freedom.

"It's a deal. As soon as I arrived here, I felt Zeno's rules suppressing this space. That must be what's keeping you trapped. But for me, those rules are nothing. I can break the seal with a wave of my hand."

Goten's voice remained calm, yet it carried an undeniable weight. "As for teaching the Grand Priest a lesson, I'll take care of it. But I expect you to keep your word. If you don't, I'll erase all of you without hesitation."

Hearing his words, the Angels around them visibly tensed, sweat forming on their brows. They could sense it—just from the way he spoke, the power Goten possessed was beyond anything they had ever encountered. It was even more terrifying than Zeno or the Grand Priest.

Angels had a keen perception of strength, and in their eyes, Goten was unfathomable. If he wanted to destroy them, it would be effortless. The thought alone was enough to make them wary. How could a mere mortal surpass Zeno and the Grand Priest?

It was simply unimaginable.

"Of course, Mr. Goten," the Grand Priestess quickly assured him. "Please trust my promise and my ability. While I may not be as strong as you, traveling through time and space is not difficult for me."

She could feel it too—Goten was dangerous. If she had any other choice, she wouldn't deal with him. But there was no alternative. If she ever wanted to leave this place, only Zeno, the Grand Priest, or someone as powerful as Goten could make it happen.

"Good. Make sure you keep your word. You should already know what happens if you don't."

As Goten finished speaking, he lightly tapped his foot against the ground. In an instant, the dark void surrounding them changed. A silver-white energy spread rapidly, consuming the gray surroundings.

Within moments, the entire space was bathed in silver light.

Zeno's restrictive power vanished completely.

The moment the suppression disappeared, the Grand Priestess and all the Angels felt something they hadn't experienced in hundreds of billions of years—freedom. A weight had been lifted. The relief was overwhelming.

"Ahh... This feeling... I had almost forgotten it..." The Grand Priestess exhaled, her face filled with amazement and joy.

For eons, she had dreamed of this moment. Now, it had finally come.

The other Angels also looked ecstatic, their expressions filled with newfound hope.

"Mr. Goten, I never imagined your strength would be this immense! You erased Zeno's rule with a mere step... That means you've also obtained your own rule power, haven't you?" the Grand Priestess asked, regaining her composure.

Before, she thought Goten was only slightly stronger than Zeno and the Grand Priest. But now, she realized how mistaken she was. What he had just done was proof—he had far surpassed them.

"What do you think?" Goten scoffed. "Without mastery over rules, how could I ever compete with Zeno and the Grand Priest? You're smart. You shouldn't ask such dumb questions."

The Grand Priestess stiffened at his words.

"Alright. Now, I'll take you to Zeno's Temple. Once I give the Grand Priest the beating he deserves, you will send me back," Goten stated. "Of course, let me remind you—if you fail to keep your promise, I'll wipe out every single one of you gods."

His voice was calm, but the Grand Priestess trembled nonetheless.
