Just call me Thor

Chapter 604: You’re dead, and I’m still alive



The burning white dog looked pitifully at Mike, hoping he would say a few kind words on its behalf.

Of course, it knew the true identity of the child standing before it. If the child really wanted to eat it... could it even pull itself out intact? The white dog began to ponder this grim question. Mike cleared his throat, patted the child on the head, and gently persuaded,

"This isn't food."

"Oh..." The child wiped away some drool, clearly disappointed.

The white dog, relieved to have narrowly escaped death, collapsed to the ground, its legs giving out.

"Do me a favor and get rid of this fire," Mike said simply.

The flames on Shadow Three's body came from the Supreme Abyssal Sun. In other words, they were part of the Supreme Demon God's power. And really, who better to absorb such flames than the child?

Mike, when it came to coaxing children, might just be the best among the Supreme Beings. The child extended a finger and gave a small flick. The flames on the white dog's body rolled and gathered into a fireball, which hovered at the child's fingertip.

"Great. Now you've got a ball to play with when you're bored," Mike said.

Sure, this fireball could obliterate a powerful Nine-Star Lord with a single hit, but in the child's hands, it was just a toy.

After chatting with the child for a bit, Mike pulled out a pile of books, including some children's literacy materials.

The white dog: ...

Was Thor really raising the Supreme Demon God as a child?

It was worth noting that this kid possessed terrifying power.

"Thanks for helping me out earlier," Mike said.

Walking through the River of Time came at a cost, and the child had paid that price for him. Mike felt he should at least show some gratitude.

After some casual conversation, Mike said his goodbyes, promising to visit the child again in the future.

Once he left the dream space, Mike returned to the Second Abyss and glanced at the Second Demon God, who was still lying on the ground.

Ignoring him, Mike turned to Shadow Three and said seriously,

"Shadow Three, my third bro wants this guy to take a trip to the mortal realm, but he's refusing to go."

Shadow Three nodded, indicating he understood.

He stepped forward, pulled out his spiked club, and smashed it into the Second Demon God's face.

BAM-

BAM-

Just two hits, and the Second Demon God was left barely alive, unable to utter a coherent word.

Shadow Three scratched his head, then turned to Mike and asked,

"You said to send the Second Demon God, but you didn't specify which one, right?"

The Second Demon God: ???

Mike chuckled. "The original is best, but I won't insist."

With that, Mike turned and walked away.

Behind him, the Second Demon God's voice rang out in reluctant surrender,

"I'll go!"

BAM-

Shadow Three swung his spiked club again, killing the Second Demon God on the spot.

The resurrected Second Demon God, now furious, cursed,

"I already said I'd go! Why did you still kill me?!"

Shadow Three, unfazed, replied,

"Do I need a reason to kill you?"

The Second Demon God: ...

Shadow Three's logic was so sound, he couldn't even argue.

After leaving the Second Abyss, Mike headed to the Fifth Abyss.

Of course, he didn't find the Fifth Demon God there. Instead, he ran into Michael.

Michael looked like he was on the verge of tears.

"Boss, where am I supposed to find my Leader? He's been acting crazy lately. Even if I do find him, he might not even understand what I'm saying!"

"That's not my problem," Mike said firmly.

"Anyway, I've said my piece. When the time comes, the Demon God must show up. If not, they'll face the consequences."

Hearing such a bold declaration, Michael felt a mix of emotions.

Mike then visited the remaining abysses, delivering the same message to each Demon God.

Whether they listened or not... Mike didn't care.

If the Demon Gods didn't show up, Mike could easily deal with them himself.

Soon, Mike had notified all the Demon Gods.

As for when and where they were supposed to show up, he didn't say a word. Neither did

Apollo.

When Mike returned to Earth, the Forest of Truth was already devoid of Apollo's presence.

Based on his experience, Mike guessed Apollo had likely returned to Florida.

Mike decided to stop by his own house in Florida first.

"What the hell happened here?!"

Mike stood in silence, staring at the scene before him.

His house looked like it had been robbed-or maybe not.

It was spotless. So spotless, in fact, that most of his belongings were gone.

Before Mike could get angry, he saw Joseph and the others carrying in new furniture.

Joseph was carrying a sofa, and lying on the sofa was Shadow Two.

Mike rolled his eyes. "Where's my original sofa?"

Shadow Two quickly jumped off the sofa, raising his hand.

"I know! I know!"

Mike's gaze encouraged him to continue.

At the same time, Mike's hand rested on the Thunderclap Hammer, ready to strike at any

moment.

Shadow Two proudly announced,

"I ate it!"

BOOM-

The aftermath of Mike and Shadow Two's clash sent Joseph flying.

Joseph: ...

In the Forest of Truth, the place where the Abyss and Earth connected, things were usually

quiet.

But today, there were visitors.

The four Guardian Shadows responsible for guarding the Forest of Truth were the first to

sense the disturbance. When they rushed to the scene, they found themselves blocked by an invisible barrier, unable to proceed.

Violet tried several times to break through but failed. She couldn't even see what was

happening inside.

Within the barrier, five Demon Gods stood silently, saying little.

Except for the Archdemon, the other Demon Gods had come in their true forms.

As for the Archdemon, his true body remained lying quietly elsewhere; only an avatar had

come.

Opposite the Demon Gods stood a middle-aged man with a blurred face and a faint smile. He

silently observed the five Demon Gods.

The Fifth Demon God looked at him with dissatisfaction and said,

"Aren't you supposed to be dead?"

Morpheus's fragmented soul smiled helplessly but said nothing.

The Fifth Demon God rubbed his temples and grumbled,

"Humanity isn't in the desperate state it was back then. One more of you doesn't make a

difference, and one less of you doesn't matter either."

The other Demon Gods, however, wore strange expressions.

They had always thought the Fifth Demon God and Morpheus had a terrible relationship-so

bad that Morpheus's death had driven the Fifth Demon God insane.

But now, seeing the two meet, there was no expected conflict. Instead, it felt more like a

reunion of old friends.

The other Demon Gods, of course, weren't as reckless as the Fifth Demon God.

In Morpheus's presence, they maintained a respectful and humble demeanor.

They knew full well that this was human territory.

Coming to the Forest of Truth in their true forms was already an act of submission, placing

their lives in the hands of their hosts like lambs to the slaughter.

Of course, the Fifth Demon God was an exception-he had come to court death.

Morpheus looked at the five Demon Gods and smiled faintly.

"Apollo is waiting for you in Florida."

He pointed them in the right direction.

The Demon Gods didn't linger and immediately set off for Florida.

The Fifth Demon God, however, turned back and asked Morpheus's fragmented soul a

question.

"Back then, if I had gone all out to stop you from going to the Supreme Abyss, would things

have turned out differently?"

"No," Morpheus replied without hesitation.

The Fifth Demon God frowned. "Why not?"

Morpheus hesitated for a moment, then said somewhat sheepishly,

"Because you couldn't have stopped me."

The Fifth Demon God: ...

"Either way," the Fifth Demon God said stubbornly,

"You're dead, and I'm still alive."

With that, he turned and left, disappearing into the horizon as a streak of light.

In Florida, five Demon Gods appeared on the streets.

Aside from the Fifth Demon God, who wore a luxurious robe and a crown, the others looked

relatively normal.

"I'm hungry," the Fifth Demon God suddenly said, walking toward a nearby food stand.

"Two burgers."

When he moved, the other Demon Gods naturally followed.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Archdemon, Second Demon God, Eighth Demon God, Ninth Demon God.

In terms of strength, all four were beneath the Fifth Demon God.

Most importantly, the Fifth Demon God had one massive advantage: he truly didn't fear

death.

The others didn't share his reckless spirit, so they had no choice but to fall in line.

Even the Archdemon seemed to have come to terms with some things recently, showing increasing respect for the Fifth Demon God.

The Fifth Demon God bought two burgers but didn't leave immediately. Holding a burger in each hand, he turned to the four Demon Gods behind him and asked

seriously,

"Which one of you has money?"
