“Treasure Tracker points you toward valuables.

“Nano Shrink doesn’t just shrink you–everything you eat shrinks, too. Then it stores inside the Treasure Vault Pouch.

“And Invincible Gold Body makes you immune to metal radiation, poison, and physical damage.”

So, that was how it worked.

Joanna copied the full combo.

Then, she faced forward and activated Gold Devourer’s Body and Gold Fang Seal–Break.

She opened her mouth, bit off an enormous chunk of metal, felt it shrink to a speck inside her mouth, and sent it into the Treasure Vault Pouch.

This was divine flesh.

Back in the Bloodstained City, a single blood–drop’s worth of divine flesh had given Nighthowl and the others a massive power boost.

This wasn’t blood–derived flesh. This was the real thing.

She didn’t dare taste it. It was pure metal.

Flavorless. But the energy inside was staggering.

And putting it in Nighthowl’s Stellar Dominion would instantly convert it into a metal planet. Putting it in her Underworld would shatter her psychic space.

But inside the Treasure Vault Pouch, it stayed stable. Metal form preserved.

Meanwhile, Gold Devourer’s Body was already digesting the flesh, boosting her defense and her control over metal–type elements.

Joanna and Benjamin ate their way forward. Growing stronger with every bite.

Crack. The tunnel broke through.

Joanna found herself staring out into open space again.

Or rather, into a colossal Godfall Land.

Before them hung a metal supergiant star.

Incomprehensible mass. Insane density. Radiating divine energy. If it were released into the Decennial Universe, it would trigger a metal expansion event that’d tear through millions of star domains.

In the Space Alliance Even worse. Joanna imagined a metal apocalypse. Countless dimensions crushed

under metal.

This supergiant was, clearly, the god’s heart.

Massive metal tubes–the blood vessels–connected to it. That was the route they’d taken.

Benjamin was buzzing. “Joanna, grow big and swallow the heart! Then, we can take it with us!

Joanna looked at the heart. Her first thought was, Ladies first… no, wait.

She was actually questioning whether she could physically eat it.

She decided against it.

“No. First, my copy of your abilities isn’t at 100%. The skills are weaker than yours. Second, Power Siphon rotates through different talents and skills. If I swallow the heart, I’d need to maintain Gold Devourer’s Body, Treasure Vault Pouch, Nano Shrink, and Invincible Gold Body all at once.”

Too many skill slots were locked down.

Benjamin’s eyes shimmered. Soft, misty, and warm.

“Joanna, you’re so good to me. A treasure like this, and you won’t take it for yourself. You’re leaving it for me. I wanted to share my treasures with you!”

My stomach just isn’t as strong as yours. I literally can’t eat metal.

But she thought about what Benjamin had said during his contract oath.

Sharing his treasures.

He hadn’t just been talking. He’d meant it.

What a wonderful contract beast.

“Benjamin, what’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is yours. No need to keep score. Go. Let’s take that heart

home.”

“Leave it to me!”

Benjamin began to grow.

A truly, absurdly gigantic space squirrel.

Spanning the cosmos.

He opened his mouth. The supergiant star–the dead god’s heart–began to shrink. Rapidly.

It disappeared into Benjamin’s jaws.

The heart was gone..

The blood vessels collapsed. Without the heart’s pumping pressure, the blood stopped flowing. It spread outward, forming new branches of the Gilded River.

Joanna returned to human form and climbed back into the metal submarine.

Benjamin shrank down and hopped in after her.

“Joanna, you can use Astral Step to jump us straight back to the Decennial Universe. If I were alone, finding my way back to the entrance would take forever.”

Right. They’d ridden the time–accelerated Gilded Blood to get here across thousands of light–years. Finding the gnawed–through exit in the world wall again would be impossible.

Still, Joanna saved the coordinates.

This was the inner universe of an even more powerful dead god. There could be other entities here.

Just like Dreamscape Star. When a god died, its flesh became land, its eyes became sun and moon.

If they could find other organs, every single one would be a Mythic–tier treasure.

With that thought, Joanna grabbed Benjamin and jumped back to the Decennial Universe, human sector, frontline.

She synced her communicator’s clock. The entire trip had taken hours inside. Outside? Half an hour.
