Ning returned back from within his own world and came outside. As soon as he was out, he could feel a few eyes looking at him from someplace far away.

'That's a weird feeling,' he thought. He wondered why he could sense them so well. Was it perhaps because he was so strong now?

He quickly checked his status and he nearly lost his mind for a few seconds.

'Wait… what?'

'Is that really accurate?' he wondered when he saw the number. 648 Septillion didn't feel like something he could gather so easily. 'That's more than Genesis gave me. Is this because my body is so strong that it can handle this much energy now?'

The amount of energy that had spilled out of him back on the planet Genesis was not some small amount. In fact, the small amount the energy he had been able to make use of was the one that was negligible.

Ning tried to think more about what he could do with this incredible amount of energy of his, but the glares he was getting were getting obnoxious now.

"Do you really have to stare so hard?" he asked into empty space, but the words fell on the ears of those that were looking. "Why not come out and say what you want?"

No one spoke at all. If someone else was to stand next to Ning at the moment, they would think he had gone mad, but Ning knew exactly who he was talking to.

"Still not coming out?" he asked. "What? Are you scared?"

"Are you a human?" a voice came from nowhere, falling only onto Ning's ears.

"Do I look like something else?" Ning asked with a slightly smug smile on his face.

"Where's Stryxus?" the voice asked.

"Who?" Ning asked, acting like this was the first time he was hearing the name.

"You know damn well who. What did you do to him?" the voice demanded.

"Who knows? He went somewhere else. I came here alone without him," Ning said. "Why? Did you have something to ask him?"

"What did you do to him? Did you kill him?" the voice asked.

"Wow, do you really think I could kill a god? How could I ever kill a self-absorbed, piece of shit constellation that only formed because the collective consciousness of the human mind thought they were something special, and yet he goes on to harm the same humans to make their mediocre life just slightly better. I have no such power," Ning said.

The voice didn't say anything. In fact, Ning felt more and more eyes fall on him. The energy inside of him was at some level resonating with the energy that made up the other constellations and as such he could sort of feel them.

"I wonder," Ning said. "Just what exactly would happen to the next constellation that tries to take advantage of human tragedy? I wonder if they will leave this place just like… what was his name again? Stryxus? Right, I wonder if they will leave this place just like he did."

"With so many of you around, why don't one of you try and find out?" Ning asked. "Especially you 50 that are waiting for the dungeons to mature and the monsters to come out. Why don't we skip it all so you reach the same fate as Stryxus?"

The Constellations were very wary at the moment. None of them was an idiot, so they knew Ning had done something to him. What they didn't know was what he had done exactly.

Seeing the massive amount of energy in Ning, they started wondering if that was how Ning had defeated Stryxus, but then what happened to Stryxus.

There were so many questions that were a mystery to them since Stryxus disappeared out of nowhere, and none of the constellations could trace the teleportation that had likely happened to send him to some other location so far away that they weren't able to sense him at all.

However, in that case, was Ning really that much stronger than them all?

"What's that? Nothing?" Ning asked since no one else spoke. "Well, then allow me to say something to you instead."

His friendly and mocking attitude dropped in an instant as his face turned vicious. "If I ever find out you are doing something harmful to the humans or making use of the tragedy to better yourself, then the first thing you will see after that will be my face."

"And once you see my face, nothing else will be left for you to see. So, tread lightly or Stryxus won't be the only one whose whereabouts remain unknown," Ning said. He slowly stood up and dusted off the sand from his clothes.

"Now, please stop staring at me so hard. It's uncomfortable," Ning said.

The glare softened, or at least Ning felt it that way, but the eyes still remained on him.

"Well, if you want to keep looking then do so. I'm leaving," Ning said and teleported away.

The eyes vanished from him as Ning arrived at a different location. 'So they don't know much about what is going on without looking for it, huh?' he thought.

He had arrived back in the USA to check on something. His divine sense went out to look for something and he quickly found it.

Grace was there, helping in what little way she could to aid the others. She had superior strength and could thus help them as they wished.

'So they do actually give away a part of their powers, huh?' Ning thought. That was all he wanted to know.

Before returning to Korea, he sent a message with his Divine sense.

"You don't need to call your god ever again."
