Chapter 637: Supreme Heaven is Invincible!
He comforted the giants, and his strong leadership immediately reassured the giant priests.
Among the giants who were mostly hunched and spoke indistinctly, he was the only one with a straight back and clear speech.
Even if they only look at their backs and are of the same height, people can often immediately distinguish giants from other races.
But the giant king El Nino is different——
If you only look at his back, you might even mistake him for a heroic monarch or a human general!
Even though his face was closer to that of an animal than a human; even though he had fangs and an extremely ugly face...
Yet, he possesses a powerful confidence that comes from authority. Compared to other giants, he is closer to humans.
In fact, this is true.
This giant king is different from all the giant kings in the past.
When he was young, he often liked to chat with the humans who were herding in the royal city. He became proficient in human language even earlier than he became proficient in giant language. The first song he sang was taught to him by his human friends.
When he was still a giant boy, he wasn't that tall. Just over two meters tall, his body hairless, and his face didn't look ferocious. He looked like a simple, tall human youth.
A captured old human, knowing he was a giant prince, told him human stories and taught him human principles, hoping to instill a heart of kindness and justice. With luck, perhaps even this generation could be the beginning of a change in the giants.
He almost succeeded.
But perhaps because he had been with humans for too long, or perhaps because he had learned too much about human culture... El Niño's aesthetic taste was distorted in his youth.
The first girl he fell in love with was a human, and they soon had a child.
Hybrid giants were allowed to exist in other circumstances, but the royal family was different. Furthermore, El Niño was too small at the time, not even close to adulthood—an adult giant royal would have to be at least four or five meters tall, but he was less than two meters tall.
This incident quickly spread throughout the Giant Kingdom and alarmed the Giant Royal Family.
El Niño's study of human culture was actually of no concern to the giants. As long as he didn't neglect his physical training and martial arts training, it was just a personal hobby... As a member of the royal family, he had this freedom. After all, giants were free.
But a giant falls in love with a human, this is a taboo!
It's like humans falling in love with golden crispy chicken.
His father immediately consigned his teacher to the same pot with the girl, along with his newborn child - even giants were on the giant's menu, let alone half-giants.
Once El Niño had eaten the whole pot, his father had successfully taught him not to play with food.
In the end, El Niño disappointed his teacher - even though he understood human culture, El Niño did not become kind and upright, but instead picked up human bad habits.
Greed for desire, understanding of power, coveting of fame, desire for vanity... and most importantly, the realization of the path to transcendence.
Changes to the rules—
In a sense, his teacher was successful.
He failed to make El Nino a benevolent king and teach the giants to become a normal race... Instead, he taught him the bad habits of humans, making him the giant king who was least like a giant.
However, it wasn't until he became the Giant King that he came into contact with the truth.
El Niño finally understood what had happened to his lost childhood love.
It wasn't for the seemingly normal reason of prohibiting Titans from marrying humans—
...In fact, the ancestors of giants are actually elves.
The Supreme Heaven himself was born into a harpy family, but he personally preferred the elves from an aesthetic point of view. After becoming a god, he used his great power to abduct a large number of elven women to reproduce for him.
According to the rules of the source river of the Path of Love, gods and mortals cannot produce offspring, otherwise they would commit the "unforgivable sin"—the "Sin of Heaven." The giants' deformities, enormity, and fury are due to their membership in the Sin of Heaven. This immense divine power caused the mothers of the first generation of giants to die during childbirth... Therefore, the giants are truly a "motherless" race; their original and only father is the Most High.
Later, the blood of some of the giants became diluted, while the blood of others became thicker.
In modern times, the Titans have effectively become two distinct races: the "Royal" and the "Ordinary Titans." The Royal still possesses red bear fur, while the Ordinary Titans' bloodline has been diluted to reveal their white, rock-like skin. If they continue to interbreed with humans, they will become ordinary humans in just three generations.
That was because the sin in their bloodline had been diluted to the point where it would no longer manifest. Furthermore, the giants did not know where they came from.
His child was cooked because if the Giant Royal Family had offspring with any other race, such as humans or elves... the offspring would become ordinary Giants. Only when the Giant Royal Family had offspring with another Royal Family would the offspring become Royal Titans.
——This is the secret of the giant’s royal bloodline!
Therefore, El Niño's children cannot be left behind.
It is precisely because the "Giant Royal Family" is actually just a fabricated concept - they do not possess any special abilities, nor are they sent by the Supreme Heaven to rule over other giants.
Rather, it is the opposite...their sins are greater, and their racial characteristics are nothing more than a curse from the path of love. The royal giants are stronger than other giants simply because they train longer, while other giants are lazier.
The reason they became royals was simply because they were a minority.
——How ridiculous.
Because of this, El Niño realized that... the tradition of giants was actually meaningless.
The "Power Tribe" had been filled with deception, vanity, and trickery from the very beginning. In reality, they were essentially no different from the humans they despised.
The giants' self-righteous barbaric tradition was instead ridiculed by the High Heavens.
Even though the Most High dotes on his people and protects them from foreign enemies, he also looks down on them like a high and mighty patriarch.
He viewed these man-eating giants as mere mindless beasts. To the Supreme Heaven, cunning was a tool of strength, and authority a protective gear. Brute force without reason was how the Supreme Heaven understood the source of violence; bestial gluttony was even the domain of the Beast Lord.
When El Niño understood this, he completely dropped his disguise.
——In that case, he might as well do it more thoroughly!
Because of this, El Niño became the most unscrupulous giant king. Possessing the wisdom and cunning of a human, the arrogance and unreasonableness of a giant... coupled with his sudden return to his ancestral aesthetic, he became the most admired and favored "youngest son" of the Supreme Heaven.
The Supreme Heaven even promised El Nino that when he ascended to the dream world, he would become his apostle and he would reshape his body and bring him closer to perfection.
Even when he took away the Wildfire Keeper's wounded branch, the High Heavens did not criticize him.
How could those flattering priests please him more than the clever and cunning El Niño?
——That’s exactly why.
When El Niño entered the fray, the sky suddenly opened up.
In El Niño's view...
The Giant Kingdom does not need any guardians.
Because the Guardians weren't actually enough to protect the entire kingdom; the true guardian was actually Supreme Heaven himself. Enemies that posed a threat to the kingdom were actually afraid of Supreme Heaven, not the name of "Wildfire," and so they didn't attack.
In that case, why not just skip the middle step and directly call upon the Supreme Heaven!
This is also the basis of El Niño.
He is here.
The Most High Heaven is watching over this place.
"Wildfire" may eventually be defeated.
——But the Supreme Heaven is always invincible!
