Chapter 104: If we can’t reach an agreement, then forget about it
This wine was actually made by Li Muhan by mixing some rice wine with the apple cider vinegar in the refrigerator, and then adding some freshly squeezed fruits. He tasted it himself and just accepted it.
Those foods are also the result of him thawing, chopping and reprocessing frozen foods, which is commonly known as synthetic meat.
But Li Muhan is well versed in cooking skills, and even the simplest ingredients can be transformed into something new in his hands.
The fact that these two gods were wolfing down the food was proof of this.
"You're really bringing shame to the Gods by eating so unruly."
"Lord Thanatos, please swallow your food before you speak, lest it spit out and ruin my appetite."
But even while eating, the two of them still did not forget to bicker.
"You two, the Special Management Bureau mainly wants you two to..."
Just as Cen Lin was about to speak, Thanatos slammed the table.
"Ever since I can remember, I've taken care of you the most, and you always obeyed me back then. Why have you become like this now?"
"Really? Lord Thanatos must have remembered it wrongly. All I remember of my childhood is your endless deception of me."
"Cheating? How can you even begin to talk about it!"
"Lord Thanatos is truly forgetful. Didn't you steal the delicious food offered to me by my followers while I was sleeping?"
"Nonsense! That's because you're only awake for an hour or two a day! I ate it to prevent it from going to waste, so how can I say I stole it?"
Hypnos smiled slyly and pointed at Death with his fork.
"Oh, I remember now. The honorable Lord Thanatos doesn't seem to have many followers. After all, as the God of Death, it's only natural that you're feared by people. That's why you're so jealous of me."
"I'm jealous of you!? Ridiculous!"
Li Muhan, Cen Lin, and even Jin Wu were speechless.
I originally thought that as the righteous Greek gods, even if there were conflicts between these two, there should be some legitimate reasons, but I didn't expect that the topics of these quarrels were all trivial matters.
"Lord Thanatos is the noble God of Death, so of course he wouldn't be jealous of me. So when you took his soul away, you must have had the same condescending attitude, right?!"
The girl suddenly said something shocking. She stood up abruptly and stared into her brother's eyes.
I thought Thanatos would refute, but this time, he remained silent and just responded to his sister's gaze silently.
"...So you're still bothered by this?"
"Lord Thanatos, you naturally forget things quickly. As soon as you arrived in China, you fell in love with the civilization here, even imitating others' way of speaking. Little did you know that in the eyes of others, you looked like a clown who only parroted what others said. Having a brother like you... is truly terrible."
The atmosphere at the banquet dropped to freezing point.
Even Jinwu, who was eating just now, put down his chopsticks silently.
Cen Lin frowned. If what Hypnos said was true, then the relationship between the two would be difficult to repair.
"Can I interrupt you two?"
Li Muhan finally found an opportunity to speak. He looked at the two gods and stood up.
"Although I don't know what the feud between you is, Lord Hypnos just said that this is China, and the Special Management Bureau is not unwelcome to you two. As long as you can get along harmoniously, then..."
"impossible."
The two of them said this almost in unison.
"When I see Thanatos's face now, I think of my friends... Thanatos, do you know how much patience it takes for me to not kill you right now?"
"Kill me? What a joke! I am death itself. How can you kill me?"
"That's really amazing, do you want to try it?"
Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Cen Lin quickly stood up to persuade them and winked at Li Muhan.
The meaning is probably: I screwed up! Now what?
"well."
Li Muhan sighed, and then he began to laugh strangely.
The laughter attracted everyone present, and they all turned to look at Li Muhan.
"Human, what are you laughing at?"
Thanatos asked.
"Nothing, I just think it's great that you two are unwilling to accept mediation."
Li Muhan raised his head, a golden light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and the smile on his face also had a hint of evil.
Cen Lin quickly grabbed Li Muhan.
"Captain Li, are you crazy?!"
Li Muhan continued to look at the two gods, and a hint of murderous intent gradually appeared in his eyes.
"In fact, the Special Management Bureau has told me that if the two gods do not accept the coordination, then only one needs to stay."
After these words were spoken, the eyes of the two gods began to shine.
The meaning of this statement is obvious: the Special Management Bureau wants to kill one of them.
"What? Are you two going to join forces?"
Li Muhan asked with a smile.
"Join forces? With Thanatos? How is that possible? I wish he would die sooner."
Hypnos said with a sneer.
Then Li Muhan nodded with satisfaction and looked at Thanatos.
"You look troublesome. The God of Death cannot be killed? Then your soul should be able to help me increase my strength a lot."
Thanatos slowly raised his hand, and a green sickle appeared in his hand.
Cen Lin was still holding Li Muhan.
"Whose order is this?! How come I don't know?"
But Li Muhan no longer explained.
"The realm, the Thundering Abyss, unfolds."
——
Li Muhan's figure instantly turned into a ray of thunder and came in front of Thanatos. Before the God of Death could react, he raised his hand and grabbed the neck of the God of Death.
"Too slow, Death!!"
boom--
Another violent thunder struck, and this thunder almost destroyed the room completely. The god of death was knocked out of the cave by the lightning transformed from Li Muhan's body and fell directly on the ground.
"......court death."
Thanatos stood up and began to emit a black aura.
"The realm, the embrace of Hades, unfolds..."
In an instant, black chaos and fog began to gather, the earth instantly began to rot, and countless black hands stretched out from the muddy land.
“Too slow!”
Swish——
Another flash of lightning.
This time, Li Muhan held high the sword to subdue the devil, not giving the god of death any chance at all, and slashed at the god of death's arm with a knife.
The Grim Reaper's eyes widened suddenly, and the next moment, his arm fell to the ground.
"...What the hell are you? You're not human."
Under the gathering thunderclouds in the sky, Li Muhan had a ferocious smile on his face.
"You will soon find out, Death. I have your soul."
