The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

A few years ago, seeing the prodigies they had their eyes on coming one after another, Jonathan and Alexandra bet on who would recruit the most.

Having nine prodigies join her sect, Alexandra won with an absolute advantage.

"What a shit luck!" Jonathan, the representative of the Ashura Sect, cursed, reluctantly handing the treasure he bet to Alexandra.

Although the Ashura Sect managed to get four prodigies at one time, Jonathan was still jealous of the Immortal Palace\'s luck.

Of all the talent they had their eyes on, most of them were women.

With the Immortal Palace\'s reputation, it was almost a monopoly, which felt like cheating.

"Then why would you bet with her?" Albert, the representative of the Eternal Sect, said, understanding the Immortal Palace\'s absolute advantage when it came to recruiting females.

"Tsk, he was just a reckless brute with muscle for brains," Charlotte, the representative of the Divine Sect, said with slight jealousy.

While the others managed to recruit a prodigy, their Divine Sect didn\'t get anything.

Even Neo, the one she was confident about, joined that turtle of a sect called the Eternal Sect.

Meanwhile, the representative of the Mechanic Alliance was hiding his joy.

As one of the bottom sects, besting these top sects was the best feeling ever.

Furthermore, managing to recruit two talented mechanics made him feel like the biggest winner.

"Hey, it\'s only a pity a few others didn\'t choose a guild. Especially Lux—I can\'t believe he refused the offer from the Virtual Business Alliance," Alexandra said after putting the treasure she won from Jonathan away.

"Heh, if it were me, I would also refuse. Isn\'t accepting the Virtual Business Alliance equivalent to admitting you are a beggar, a poor bastard who is short on money?" Jonathan snorted, not taking the Virtual Business Alliance representative, whose face was getting dark, seriously.

"Hmph! The Virtual Business Alliance was already sincere. We already offered a free storefront quota of his choosing. If he had some brains, he would join us without hesitation," Jacob, the representative of the Virtual Business Alliance, replied coldly.

"What\'s that compared to what we offered? Isn\'t a storefront just a few clicks of a button?"

"What do you know? If this kid chose the most prime location and had some ability, it would squeeze out the profits of others. Giving your business competition an advantage was already too great for us," Jacob snorted, explaining his thought process.

"Oh, who cares? You\'re still cheap, and you know it," Jonathan mocked.

"Hahaha, I admire this kid, Lux, for defying the Virtual Business Alliance. I hope I will see him fight neck and neck and put these arrogant businessmen in their place."

"That\'s right, maybe in the future we\'ll have cheaper prices!"

...

While the representatives argued over the matter in the seclusion chambers of the Etherium Realm, Liam and the others slowly woke up, opening their eyes.

"We\'ve returned!"

"Huh~ The smell of the breeze, so fascinating."

"The mana of the Etherium Realm is still the most calming ever."

"I wonder how Father and Mother are?"

"Let\'s go see what happened to the world after over a hundred years..."

Getting out of their seclusion, Liam and the others surveyed the land, fascinated by the changes that happened in just a hundred years.

Looking at the place, it seemed that the whole Etherium Realm was influenced by the culture of the Moonlight Empire.

Couples walking out of the streets, children just coming out of school, teenagers playing games, and various restaurants and shops promoting their merchandise.

Looking at the scene, Liam and the others felt they had come back to civilization.

Soon, after having enough fun, they finally found their family was in the Etherium Academy.

Looking at the floating continent that could be seen on all four continents, they couldn\'t help but be dazzled.

"Did Dad create this fifth continent?" they joked.

Thinking of how extravagant their father was, creating a continent for fun seemed feasible.

Going inside the academy, they were not stopped by security.

Eternal Voyager, the Spirit of the academy, would, of course, not barge the young masters of the Shadowcrest family from entering.

Guiding them to the Shadowcrest residence in the Etherium Academy, Liam and the others finally met their parents.

"Father!"

"Daddy!"

"Dad!"

"Mother, we are back!"

"Mommy, we missed you!"

Seeing their children and grandchildren swarming to them, Maximus and his wives smiled, surprised at their arrival.

Not seeing each other for over a hundred years, they missed them very much.

After a moment of reminiscing and reunion, Max proposed a celebratory feast, drinking until they blacked out.

Using the tastiest and the strongest wine while suppressing their powers, soon enough, they became drunk, clouding their minds.

"So, how was the Dimensional Battlefield? Was it fun?"

"No, Dad, it was not fun at all. Lyla—Lyla was even hurt," Lydia said, still traumatized from seeing her sister die before her.

"Hehe, sister, don\'t worry, I won\'t leave you," Lyla muttered, lying drunkenly in her arms.

Telling their hardships and experiences in the Dimensional Battlefield, Maximus smiled.

The Dimensional Battlefield seemed to make his children grow overnight, from inexperienced brats to veteran warriors looking out for each other.

"What about you, Luke, Sam, and Lux? When are you going to give me grandchildren?"

Hearing the question, the three were a little stunned, not knowing how to answer.

"Look at your nephews; maybe they will give me great-grandchildren before you do!" Maximus remarked, somewhat drunk.

"Dad, I didn\'t find the right girl yet. They were either too stupid or too ugly for my liking," Luke said truthfully, the drunkenness giving him confidence.

All the girls he met in the past were lacking in the mind department.

As a pure mechanic, he dreamed that the wife he would have would join him in his journey to reach the peak of his craft.

"I\'m sure you will find it. The Mechanic Alliance should be filled with beauties of that type," Maximus said in satisfaction, finally having a lead.

"What about you, Sam?"

"Dad, can I not? A woman would only rust my sword and distract me," Sam lied through his teeth.

"Haha, brother, admit it—you were traumatized by girls!" Luke said, snitching on his brother.

In his early life, Sam was a girl-killer, the sea king who picked all the fish he could find.

However, such wanton debauchery also has a price.

With the girls coming for Sam only for money, status, and looks, Sam felt everything in this world became dull.

His emotions were being ground away, depleting him of any feelings.

Besides for his family and machines, Sam was depleted of all emotion he could spare.

"I see. Don\'t worry; in the future, I\'m sure there will be a girl who will open your eyes to this colorful world," Maximus comforted, a little sorry for Sam\'s experience.

Maximus blamed himself for being a little too indulgent with his son, leading him to become like this.

"What about you, Lux? When will you give me a grandchild?" Maximus asked, turning to Lux.

"Um, Father, can we not talk about this? I still haven\'t built a business empire that surpasses yours," Lux reasoned.

"You dream! You can never surpass me. Now tell me the real reason!"

"I\'m being truthful!" Lux insisted.

"No! If you don\'t tell me, I won\'t give you money. I heard from Max that you needed a bunch of it." Maximus threatened.

"Damn brother, you loudmouth."

"Hahaha, sorry brother, I thought you were embarrassed, so I told it for you," Max said, sticking his tongue out.

"I was just drafting the business proposal, so I haven\'t told it yet-"

"Now, now, don\'t change the topic. We want to hear the reason you haven\'t found a partner yet," Liam interjected, a little curious.

"This... I wanted to find a girl richer than Father, so I could lie down and relax..." Lux said softer and softer as his face flushed with embarrassment.

"Hahaha! You wanted to be a soft-boiled egg!" Max and the others laughed loudly.

"Brother, if you want to lie down and relax, just come with me!" Neo suggested.

"No, I want to lie down in the richness of the world," Lux said, having ambition in his laziness.

"Your sisters are also here if you just want girls to support you. You don\'t need to find anyone. Although we aren\'t as rich, it\'s not a problem to feed you," Lily said with a smile.

"Brother, I can borrow money from Dad and raise you like a little princess," Asha added, smiling ear to ear.

"You! How can you be so vulgar? I\'m a brother; I should raise my sisters, not the other way around!"

"Hahahaha!"

In laughter and drunkenness, the night passed by, with all of them eventually passing out.
